Upon completing a randomized act, the act completed in the telescope will be the randomized act. This means you can keep entering the same act to get a new level until it gives you the vanilla level.

Another implication of this is that you can re-enter the level to get a new randomized level, which breaks a ton of things. (For instance, re-entering an Alpine level until you got to each of the 4 peaks without doing any of the islands)

That's working as intended then.

Could you explain what your expected behaviour is?

Do you mean collecting the randomized act's Time Piece should instead grant the originally selected act's Time Piece? That would mean you never play the original act, and are still able to randomize into the randomized act.

I would expect that the level has a set randomized act to go to, and upon completing said level, the telescope completes the level at which you entered from.

So if you enter She Came From Outer Space and it sends you to Down With the Mafia, and you complete Down With the Mafia, it will then clear She Came From Outer Space on the map.

At the moment I can simply re-enter She Came From Outer Space as many times as I'd like to complete all of Mafia Town (and if I get the vanilla act, exit to hub, and re-enter again)

Ah, that's sounds more like a Shufflizer. I might add that as an extra option, or just a separate mod all together.

EDIT: Actually I just realised I can send players into other chapters. I think I will make a separate mod for randomized acts.

I guess I just think of a randomizer more as you only get to shake the bag up once.

So you have an inventory of items to dispense in all the levels (or in this case levels to dispense) but to dispense in a manner that all the vanilla item totals remain. You can't leave and come back to change it again to get what you want, you're stuck with what you're originally given.

Makes seeds and races on the same randomized set even better that way.

From the small amount of Paper Mario TTYD Randomizer/Shufflizer content I've watched, that definitely sounds more like a Shufflizer. I'll look into it though, but it'll take me a lot longer than the Randomizer did.
I'd need a list of every important collectible in the game, for a start.

I'm sure myself and a lot of people on the Boop Troop are willing to help with anything for it. (If there were like a group dm or even a small server, might help more for that)

when entering an act with the act randomizer on, you can get randomly teleported into purple rifts, but not blue rifts.

when entering subcon, i've noticed that all of the chests i've seen are already opened, despite me never opening them, which might be because i already have ♥♥♥♥♥♥ the items that are 'supposed' to be in them?

Ok yea, I see what the issue is here. The chests wait longer (i.e. after I randomize them) to check their contents to see if the player already has the item in their backpack. So if they get their contents randomized into a badge you already have, it'll force itself to be open/empty.
I should be able to get around it by waiting longer than the chests do to randomize their contents.
