In Jay's changelog

What Jay's changelog for GTS says about it, newest revision first. A later revision can have changed it again; the rest of this page is what base GTS does now.

V35 Floating lanterns in Broken Oar Grotto have now been fixed

From base GTS 118's own records: the winning copy of BrokenOarGrottoLocation (LCO_BrokenOarGrotto.esp). Level: the place's encounter zone, as the records set it. The game sets a place's level from yours, kept between its lowest and highest; GTS's Encounter Zones Unlocked keeps it following you rather than fixed at your first visit. Boss: who the place's own record marks as its boss (one picked by level has no name of its own and isn't shown). People: where the game places them as a game starts; they walk about.
