Quantillia v0.16.0

This month we tackled some fundamental features that structsd would need in place to graduate from a testnet chain, especially around gas handling and upgrades. We snuck a couple more gameplay fixes in there too.

Changelog

• 5f49b3d Added UGC moderation functionality for guilds
• a1ec2db Added UGC moderation functionality for guilds
• 964460c Added a new fleet is on station requirement for planet exploration.
• 6466e67 Added more work to the custom ante to make sure staking module queries were getting enough gas to complete. They're more complicated than normal due to the hooks they run.
• 7cfdd26 Adding in proper upgrade path framework
• e63915d Adding more strict parameters to name and pfp setting. Adding moderation events. Cleaning up some ante code.
• ca31f7e Adding new PDC related tests
• 34fe936 Custom ante handler for Structs. All Structs gameplay txs (allocations, substations, guilds, membership, permissions, ranks, reactors, address registration, proxy join, planet exploration, struct building, fleet movement, combat) work as free transactions with no fees. Standard Cosmos operations (bank sends in Phase 4b) work with normal gas fees. All 80+ message types are being processed correctly through the custom decorator chain
• 1115efe Fixed a gameplay issue where starfighter damage expectations where between 0-3 instead of 1-3. New struct type attribute for guaranteed shot is available for struct types that require a minimum.
• aacca6d Fixing an ante bug relating to reactors
• 3da6f3b Long time coming but finally putting a proper build system in place.
• 4be9cb7 Small improvements to the ante
• 36abe45 resolving a number of bugs/flaws in the latest code changes after deep review
• 45387da updating readme with make details.

Pyrexnar

Like Opheliora but far less tragic.

• Fixed bug in Proxy Join
• Fixed tests that should have been there in the first place

Full Changelog: v0.14.0-beta...v0.15.0-beta

Opheliora

This release is a doozy. It's a significant step towards a mature codebase with working economic tooling and a battle engine tuned for fun.

Combat Engine Rewrite

The attack system was architecturally overhauled. All combat resolution logic has been centralized into AttackContext as a dedicated combat engine, replacing the previous approach where combat methods were scattered across StructCache. Every combat method now returns a typed result struct (EvasionResult, BlockResult, VolleyResult, CounterResult, RecoilResult, PlanetaryDefenseResult), and zero event writes happen during resolution. Event construction is consolidated into exactly two methods: EndShot for per-target details and Finalize for the overall attack event.

This restructuring was necessary to fix a bug where multi-shot weapons (like the Starfighter's Attack Run with 3 projectiles) were aggregating all shots into a single EventAttackShotDetail row. Damage totals were mechanically correct, but per-projectile hit/miss breakdowns were invisible to clients. Each projectile now gets its own event row, matching the proto's intended repeated EventAttackShotDetail design.

Counter-Attack Overhaul

The counter-attack system received several interrelated fixes. Structs now track counter-spent state per attack, ensuring each defender counters at most once. The ordering has been corrected so defensive counter-attacks occur before block attempts, and counter-attacks now properly fire even on evaded shots. Attack Runs were being countered too aggressively — all of these changes together bring the combat loop in line with the intended game design.

Allocation System Rework

The allocation system has been significantly reworked. The controller identifier is now PlayerId rather than an address, account abstraction has been added, and source capacity underloads are properly guarded. Allocations on import have been fixed (consensus-breaking), and provider allocations now validate the controller correctly. This touches the economic core of the chain.

Permission System Overhaul

Permissions have shifted from struct-level to a rank-based model. Guild rank now gates capabilities like kicking members. Struct-specific permissions have been removed in favor of the new system, and orphaned permissions are cleaned up. This is a meaningful governance change for guilds.

Additional Fixes

targetPlayerId moved from EventAttackDetail to EventAttackShotDetail in the proto (API-breaking for clients parsing attack events)
Planetary Defense Cannon return value was never being set — now correctly reports when cannons fire
EvadedCause was being populated even on failed evasion attempts — now only set on successful evasion
All combat logging downgraded from Info to Debug to reduce production noise
commitAll() reordered for indexer compatibility

Nebulon

More like Mystigone.

The previous release committed attributes before objects which caused massive issues in the indexer, which cascaded into grass and the interfaces. Rather than hack fixes into all those layers, we're just pushing a new release to fix the order.

Mystigon

Various bug fixes, gameplay tweaks, and a casual complete refactoring of the caching framework.
