Major Performance Improvements

• Rebuilt room maintenance around a new shared active-room dispatcher.

• Nearby rooms are now selected once before their maintenance systems are processed.
• Each active room now executes its maintenance chain only once per pulse.
• Multiple players near the same room no longer repeatedly execute the same room logic.
• Performance now scales primarily with the number of active rooms rather than players multiplied by individual room systems.
• Existing room-control responsiveness remains at 5 TPS.

Room Integrity & Repair

• Added expanded automatic room-integrity handling.

• Existing rooms can now receive one-time repairs for:

  • Stairs
  • Vertical connectors
  • Directional controls
  • Room safety systems

• Added continued migration support for older Hollow Spiral worlds.

• Existing generated rooms are only modified when their specific compatibility repair is required.

• Player-made modifications remain preserved.

World Migration Improvements

Farm Stabilization

• Improved post-generation farm processing.
• Farm settling now uses a dedicated active-farm selection system.
• Only rooms that actually require farm stabilization participate in the extended pass.
• Normal room processing no longer repeats unnecessary farm-settle searches.
• Existing crop restoration, hydration, dropped-item cleanup, and settling behavior remain intact.
