#apparatus storage effect

[annyllel]

There’s an interesting side effect of apparatus storage that I’ve noticed here... Usually you wouldn’t even know this because you have the slate, as you are meant to. But if you don’t have the slate for real, apparatus storage gives you a temporary one. (This is akin to certain others things like activating a tower or showing someone a picture, etc.) You can tell the slate is fake because Link is without his belt, a sure sign that you’ve skipped collecting the slate. 

Also, you can see the fake slate on Link’s hip when you’re running around the world, but the collection screen is truthful and does not show it. You can get rid of the phony slate simply by reloading a save and not having apparatus storage active.
