I've added a 5th trick in a separate commit: opening underwater chests (novice, glitch)

Only using it for logic with forest temple well because I'm not confident with water temple logic

Morpha could do with a full test of damage that works on it, i just tried hammer and got the kill just with that for example. Additionally, if you are requiring magic for the ksword for difficulty reasons, please add that to the trick description.

To add onto that, I'd say the trick should require swimming or at least an alternative to allow swimming since the main strategy for it requires doing so

it's using CollisionCheck_GetSwordDamage

Also, probably a good idea to move the morpha killing logic into CanKillEnemy (ganondorf & ganon are already there).

moved all boss logic to logic.cpp

Idk how we're feeling on using the glitch tag already, if we're gonna be using it, we should probably enable filtering by it in the tricks selection and rename glitchless logic.

It's already been added for damage boosts

damage boosts arent generally considered as glitches by the speedrunning community (which i think is the best basis to use since they have a very defined and recognised set of rules)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ebZ94KGlVw gets into having to split glitchless into restricted & unrestricted. I bring up this video in particular because at 12:20 they mention underwater chests, & how that trick will be allowed in the unrestricted category & banned in the restricted category

For rando it seems fair to say glitchless falls under the unrestricted category, in which case this trick should not have the glitch tag

I do think a PR should be made which hides glitch tricks by default if it isn't too hairy

Idk if this deserves an extreme rating as for now only pot jump has it, maybe expert would be better but I would like more opinions on this.

Going to remove magic requirement on kokiri sword, since this shows how to clear without

Only pot jump having this tag isn't really a good argument not to use the tag. How many other tricks do you think would fit extreme tag before hookshotless morpha as child link without shield?

While I am wary of trick bloat, if different levels of gear for a trick have enough impact to move the trick up 1 or more tiers, it may be justification for splitting the trick into different versions. I can see "Hookshotless Morpha with good sword" and "Hookshotless Morpha with bad weapons" existing separately.

Also add "morpha with only hammer (no crouch stab)"

But I think we're best keeping this to one trick, expert may be the right difficulty. At least these more difficult situations involve turning on more shuffle options (shuffle sword, adult bosses as child) which if someone is turning on those options & this option they're kinda asking for it (description could even warn about these scenarios)

@A-Green-Spoon has confirmed morpha with only megaton hammer side swings works
