Hey scouts, we are bringing more protection updates, for Random Seed specially.

1. Random Seed will only be playable in newer versions from now on

In order to avoid any kind of tricks playing with game versions to try to break TerrainRandomiser, and since verifiers might not notice if someone cheats since doing that would be within the parameters of ModVerifier, moderators decided to not allowing playing Random Seed in older versions of the game.

2. BetterScoutReport mod will be mandatory to play Random seed (starting from 4th October 2026)

Following the 1st point, we are also adding this mod as mandatory to play Random Seed in order to enhance the protection, since it gives verifiers some more info to investigate in case we have cheat suspects on someone. The runs that are pending to be verified won't be at risk with this new update, they will be verified, but after this post, all the new Random Seed submits must have BetterScoutReport.

3. Major Verification add-ons to the Top Runners in NADIR% category:

Submitting sub 15min SECRET ENDING% NMG Set Seed + sub 17min SECRET ENDING% NMG Random Seed will need files check as well.

4. Switched SECRET ENDING% to just NADIR%
