Too Many Accessories
Specific Accessories do not function outside of normal accessory slots
Issue: Specific accessories do not work outside of normal accessory slots.

Expected Behavior: All accessories function as intended when used in vanity slots and in inventory when the appropriate enabler accessory is equipped.

Actual Behavior: Accessory functionality is inconsistent. Some accessories function without issue in vanity and inventory slots when appropriate enabler is equipped, while others do not.

Steps to replicate:
1. Unequip all armors and accessories, dismiss all active buffs. Have Vanity Accessory Enabler, Pygmy Necklace, Papyrus Scarab and Imp Staff in inventory.
2. Use Imp Staff repeatedly, observe only a single Imp can be summoned.
3. Equip Vanity Accessory Enabler in a normal accessory slot, and Pygmy Necklace in a vanity accessory slot.
4. Use Imp Staff repeatedly, observe only a single Imp can be summoned, despite Vanity Accessory Enabler being equipped and Pygmy Necklace in vanity slot.
5. Move Pygmy Necklace to normal accessory slot.
6. Use Imp Staff repeatedly. Observe that two Imps can now be summoned.
7. Remove Pygmy Necklace, equip Papyrus Scarab into vanity accessory slot.
8. Use Imp Staff repeatedly, observe two imps can be summoned as expected.

Testing Modlist:
- Too Many Accessories
- DragonLens
- Concise Mod List
- Foldering

Notes: I haven't been able to find any consistencies for what causes an accessory to work or not. As noted in the steps above, the Pygmy Necklace fails to work in accessory slots, but the Papyrus Scarab does. The number of effects on an accessory does not seem to be related, as Cloud in a Bottle, Golden Horseshoe and Red Balloon all functioned as intended in vanity slots when tested.

Furthermore, some accessories seem to only partially function outside of normal accessory slots. When tested, the Fairy Boots equipped in vanity accessory slots granted the ability to run quickly, but did not grow flowers on grass.

The majority of accessories from the base game appear to work without issue, I was only able to confirm that the Pygmy Necklace was not functional however I did not test each individual accessory. The issue becomes much more noticeable when other content mods such as Calamity and Fargo's are used as well, as many more of the accessories from those mods appear to be affected.

The other three mods enabled during testing are not the cause of this issue. I originally witnessed this behavior with DragonLens disabled, and was only used in testing to spawn the items used to test. Concise Mod List and Foldering are mods that affect the Manage Mods and Character Selection screens respectively, and do not impact actual gameplay.

Another item that seems to only half-function: the Terraspark Boots do not provide boosted speed on ice blocks when equipped outside of a normal accessory slot, and this was also true of upgraded versions of the boots from other mods.
The general rule seems to be that the more complex the accessory is in terms of effects provided, the more likely it is for the accessory to have limited functionality outside of normal accessory slots.
