Hollow Spiral Data — v0.5.0 → v0.6.0

DAI 3.3 Modernization

• Updated Hollow Spiral for DAI 3.3.

• Updated managed MAIN experience metadata to v0.6.0.

• Preserved stable experience ID and namespace:

  • hollow_spire

• Preserved the existing save identity:

  • The Hollow Spiral

• Existing worlds remain fully compatible.

Active-Room Dispatcher

• Rebuilt the room-maintenance pulse around a shared active-room dispatcher.

• Replaced approximately 20 separate nearby-room marker searches per player every pulse with a consolidated selection stage.

• Nearby rooms are now selected once and processed locally from their own room marker.

• Broad player-local room searches reduced from:

  • 20 → 2 per pulse

• Existing room maintenance continues at the same 5 TPS cadence.

Multiplayer Efficiency

• Active room markers are temporarily tagged before maintenance processing.
• Each nearby room now executes its maintenance chain once per pulse.
• Multiple players standing near the same room no longer cause the same room integrity and control logic to execute repeatedly.
• Performance now scales more cleanly with the number of unique active rooms rather than player × subsystem combinations.

Room Integrity

• Preserved the v0.5.0 universal room-integrity system.

• Existing rooms still automatically receive:

  • Stair repair
  • Vertical connector repair
  • Directional-control restoration
  • Historical compatibility migrations

• Existing generated rooms remain untouched until their specific one-time repair is required.

• Player modifications remain preserved.

Farm Stabilization

• Preserved the special 32-block post-generation farm stabilization radius.
• Farm settling now uses a dedicated temporary active-farm selection.
• Only rooms carrying hs_farm_settle participate in the extended farm pass.
• Normal room processing no longer repeats the farm-settle search path.
• Crop restoration, farmland hydration, temporary dropped-item cleanup, and settling duration remain unchanged.

Historical Migration Support

• Preserved all existing lazy migration systems for older Hollow Spiral worlds.

• Retained compatibility for:

  • Room safety retrofits
  • Stair fixes
  • Farm lighting
  • Farm animals
  • Grove populations
  • Home lighting
  • Coral Grotto rebuilding
  • Castle defenders
  • Ruin populations
  • Crypt cleanup
  • Control restoration

• Added a v0.6.0 one-time cleanup for temporary active-room dispatcher tags.

Controls & Exploration

• Six-direction room-generation controls remain unchanged.
• Horizontal room controls remain unchanged.
• UP and DOWN stair controls remain unchanged.
• Button responsiveness remains at the same 5 TPS detection cadence.
• Room generation logic and permanent-room behavior remain unchanged.

Survival Systems

• Vanilla mob mode remains unchanged.
• Ecology cadence remains unchanged.
• Farms, groves, ruins, castles, oceans, volcanoes, villages, and other room types remain unchanged.
• Existing survival balance remains unchanged.
• Natural-spawn suppression behavior remains unchanged.

Player Safety

• Void recall remains active at the full server tick cadence.
• Existing teleport, blindness, resistance, and recovery behavior remain unchanged.
• First-join and returning-player behavior remain unchanged.

Performance Summary

• Nearby-room subsystem searches:

  • 20 per player per pulse → 2

• Room maintenance:

  • Player × subsystem execution → one pass per unique active room

• Room-control cadence:

  • Remains 5 TPS

• Ecology:

  • Unchanged

• Void recovery:

  • Remains 20 TPS

• Gameplay timing:
