New Order is a level edit hack that completely revamps item collection in Mega Man X. You can now acquire each part of the Light Armor in any order you choose, as well as each Sub Tank and Heart Tank without any prerequisite items. These changes have been made with great care in order to keep the gameplay and progression feeling organic. The only obstacles that have been left in place are stage-specific conditions, such as the ice in Flame Mammoth's stage or the water in Sting Chameleon's stage.
