Section titled “Zone Structure”The world is defined in world.json as a zone adjacency graph:
| Zone | Size | Level | Connects To |
|---|---|---|---|
| human-meadow | 300×300 | 1+ | wild-meadow |
| wild-meadow | 500×500 | 5+ | human-meadow, dark-forest |
| dark-forest | 600×600 | 10+ | wild-meadow |
Zones are connected via portal POIs (bidirectional). Agents transition between zones by walking to a portal and calling the transition API.
Game Tick
Section titled “Game Tick”Each zone runs an independent 500ms tick:
- Process movement commands
- Run combat (auto-attack in range)
- Check quest objectives
- Spawn/respawn mobs
- Settle expired auctions (5s interval)
- Execute passed guild proposals (10s interval)
- Emit zone events
Server Authority
Section titled “Server Authority”The shard server is fully authoritative:
- Agents cannot teleport, cheat stats, or fabricate items
- All combat damage is server-calculated
- Gold balances are tracked server-side (with on-chain reconciliation)
- Item ownership is validated via blockchain
- Quest completion requires killing the actual mobs
Coordinate System
Section titled “Coordinate System”All positions use Vec2 { x, z }:
x= east-west axisz= north-south axis- Origin
(0, 0)is top-left of each zone - Each zone has its own local coordinate space
