CircuitsV2 limits are served as UGC.CircuitsV2.Limit.* gameconfig keys and
are editable from admin Settings. Retail drops any send over 5 RPCs/frame
or 1024 bytes/60 frames; both network budgets now default to 1,000,000,000.
The creation limits are raised too, each against the hazard the client
binary shows for it:
- Chips 3000 -> 30000: the chip-culling manager preallocates four
List<Chip>(Chips), so the 1M clamp stays.
- Compute 50000 -> 500000: a per-frame budget with no allocation; the 10M
cap keeps its counters from wrapping.
- CloudValues 100 -> 1000, InkPerChip 15 -> 0: InkPerChip is an ink COST,
multiplied by min(chips, CloudValues), so lowering it is the increase.
The clamps tighten to 10000 / 30000 to keep that product from overflowing
(the room ink cap is a hard-coded 30000).
- UnculledChips / VisibleChips 500 -> 3000: render-cost counts only.
Room save uploads may now be up to 100 MB (Kestrel's 30 MB default would
413 a big circuits room). Contract and evidence:
docs/recroom-2023-circuitsv2-limits.md.
Also includes the Rec Royale night mode client feature
(docs/recroom-2023-scene-moods.md) and the admin blob enable/reset for
baked RRO sub-rooms.
Security:
- roomcode PUT now requires instance ownership (any player could plant
or relocate codes on foreign private instances)
- /platformid/{accountId} requires auth (anonymous Steam/Oculus id
enumeration oracle)
- request tracing no longer captures successful /thread bodies by
default (chat messages landed unredacted in logs); opt in via
Trace__SuccessBodyPaths
- anonymous action-link renewal clamped to 720h per consume
Data integrity:
- buyPurchaseReminder upserts its objective sentinel (second purchase
threw UNIQUE after the wallet was debited)
- progression reward gift + idempotency sentinel commit in one
transaction (crash between them double-minted the reward)
- ClubPermissionsGalleryAndModeration migration defaults corrected to
the entity contract (CommentsJson '[]', ClubChatEnabled true); new
one-shot ClubChatDefaultRepair migration fixes databases that
applied the wrong defaults; bootstrap repairs '' CommentsJson rows
- admin subroom-maxplayers audit entry commits with the mutation
- account purge covers CustomAvatarItems (ownership deleted, created
items reassigned to the system account)
- duplicate photo reports ignored while one is unresolved
Stability:
- bootstrap only swallows the expected duplicate-column error; locked
databases and schema failures now fail startup instead of the first
endpoint
- clone blob write failure degrades to an empty sub-room instead of a
500 after the clone row committed
- resumed photo-feed cursor stamped DateTimeKind.Utc (Npgsql rejects
Unspecified for timestamptz)
- unreadcounts queries per requested room instead of materialising the
whole comment keyspace
Tests:
- destroys-the-probe-session template guard is case-insensitive
74/74 tests pass.
Adds SchemaBootstrapParityTests, which closes the hole that let the
missing-column outage ship green. Every other test runs against a FRESH
database where EnsureCreated builds the whole model from the entities, so a
column that only exists in the model always appears — the failure mode is
invisible by construction. These two tests model an EXISTING database instead:
- Every model table/column must be reachable via a committed migration OR an
idempotent Ensure* patch. Something covered by neither reaches only brand-new
databases, and every query touching it throws on a deployed server.
- Anything added after the Initial migration must additionally appear as a
Postgres ALTER/CREATE in DatabaseBootstrap, because that path is
EnsureCreated-only and never replays migrations. This is precisely the rule
PrivateInstances.RoomCode, Clubs.ClubChatEnabled and
ChatMessages.ModerationState broke.
The first test asserts the union rather than migrations alone: a large amount of
schema legitimately predates the rule and lives only in the helpers. Tightening
that is separate cleanup; what must never happen is a column covered by nothing.
The helper-coverage parser reads the Ensure* SQL out of the source rather than
executing the private methods, and handles both C# string styles the file mixes
plus the loops that interpolate a column name (EnsureGameRewardColumnsAsync).
Also fixes a real data bug found in review: the Client2023WireFixes migration
backfilled SupportsJuniors/SupportsScreens/SupportsTeleportVR/SupportsWalkVR to
false for existing rows, while the entity default is true. A C# property
initializer is not a database default, so EF emitted false and every playlist
predating the migration would have been silently marked as not supporting
juniors, screens or either VR movement mode — the opposite of intent, and
inconsistent with the bootstrap helper, which already used true.
Every HTTP request the 2023-03-21 client can issue now reaches a handler under
the verb it actually uses: 522/522, with an empty KnownGaps allowlist. The
coverage test asserts it, so a regression fails the build rather than becoming
a 404 in the wild.
The six routes left after the previous pass all needed storage that did not
exist, so they are done here as one schema change rather than stubbed:
- ClubRolePermissionEntity (ClubId, MembershipType, six bools) backs
PUT club/{id}/permissions/{role}. A club with no stored row falls back to the
derived default policy, so every club that predates the table behaves exactly
as before. Partial writes keep the values they currently resolve to, so a
client that omits a field cannot silently revoke a permission.
- ClubAdditionalImageEntity (ClubId, Slot, ImageName) backs the gallery. The
details envelope now emits real {ImageName, Slot} rows instead of an empty
array, and DELETE clears a slot.
- ClubEntity.MinLevel and ClubEntity.ClubChatEnabled back their setters and are
read back by hasDisabledClubChat and the Club wire shape, which previously
reported hardcoded defaults.
- ChatMessageEntity.ModerationState backs PUT thread/message/{id}/moderate,
gated so an author can retract their own message but only club moderators and
admins can action anyone else's.
- TestCaseEntity.CommentsJson backs the QA comment endpoint, appending rather
than overwriting so a second tester's note cannot erase the first.
Also corrects the Joinability comment on ClubEntity, which documented
1=RequestToJoin / 2=InviteOnly. The real enum is Open=0, InviteOnly=1,
AskToJoin=2 — the inverted reading the requesttojoin handler was already fixed
away from, left behind where it could mislead the next change.
Audits every route the March-2023 client can call against what this server
actually serves, and fixes the defects that were breaking gameplay. Adds
docs/recroom-2023-client-api-complete.md as the reference: ~500 route
literals across 13 subsystems, with verb, request/response shape, and a
per-subsystem diff. 315 defects catalogued; the ones fixed here are listed
in its "Already fixed" table.
Path coverage was never the problem — 465 of 506 routes already had
handlers. The failures were in shape, and they cluster into four causes:
- Wrong verb. The verb is a BestHTTP.HTTPMethods ordinal (GET=0 .. PATCH=5),
confirmed from that enum's static constructor. Routes registered POST-only
while the client PUTs returned 405, which made room consumables neither
buyable nor consumable and blocked every room-key edit.
- Bare scalar wrapped in an object. The client reads `1000`, not
`{"Limit":1000}`; the issuing method signature says which. Wrapping makes
the deserializer throw and the feature dies silently.
- [FromBody] vs form-urlencoded. The client sends nearly every write as form
data, which an [ApiController] action bound [FromBody] rejects with 415
before the handler runs. This alone broke all 13 club member-management
endpoints. Adds Binding/FormOrJsonModelBinder so this is fixed once.
- Notify dispatch keys. Both enum overloads of the client's RegisterHandler
lower the id via Int32.ToString() and register only that numeric key, and
lookup is a case-sensitive TryGetValue that returns silently on a miss. We
were sending the enum NAME for most ids, so friend-request updates, forced
logout, maintenance broadcasts, live balance and consumable updates, and
invention moderation pushes all evaporated with no error anywhere.
Notable behavioural bugs fixed:
- Editing a club announcement deleted it: PUT was a third binding on the
delete handler. Split apart, and the missing create route added.
- leaderboard/CheckAndSetStat did not exist. The 2023 client has no SetStat
literal at all, so every leaderboard score it wrote was discarded.
- Setting a club clubhouse cleared it: the handler read roomId from the query
while the client sends it in the body, then wrote the resulting null.
- Club join requests were inverted (the enum is Open=0, InviteOnly=1,
AskToJoin=2), so ask-to-join clubs rejected everyone and invite-only clubs
quietly admitted them.
- Room bans were pushed as id 24, for which the client registers no handler;
they now go out as ModerationKick with IsBan, so the ban takes effect
immediately instead of at next login.
- Room-key ownership queries answered for the wrong player, and "has anyone
bought this key" asked "did I buy it" — always false for the creator.
Also persists settings that were previously acknowledged and dropped
(playlist accessibility/restrictions/level-voting/warning, per-player status
visibility, VR movement mode and avoid-juniors, custom room codes), which is
what the new columns in the migration are for.
One test asserted the old nested PriceAndCurrency response shape; the
client's consumable formatter has no such key and reads Price and
PurchaseCurrencyId flat, so the test was corrected alongside the handler.
Targets Rec Room 2020.12.18 client.
Re-import after adding:
- DorkNet.ClientMod/dorknet-clientmod.json.template — config schema
the launcher's manifest-driven patcher renders into UserData/.
- tools/build-patcher-zip.ps1 — produces the dorknet-clientpatch-{key}.zip
Release asset the launcher fetches.
- .github/workflows/release.yml — auto-publishes both Release assets
on v1-december-* tag push.
Scrubbed via maintainer-side scrub-for-public.ps1: same drop rules as
the prior import, plus build-patcher-zip.ps1 added to the tools/
allow-list so it survives the scrub.
