Debug mode

Outline UI controls and label each with its selector (#id / data-*). Local preference; only you see it.

Yellow nose ray

Flight-forward debug line (~450k km). Only you see it; other pilots never get this overlay.

Fitting part debug colors

Transparent role-colored composites (Frame / Bridge / Drive / ?). Off = normal hull look everyone else sees. Local preference; other pilots never get this toggle.

Client remotes

Actual Prediction Both

Prediction · soft-correct + ghost between presence samples

Admin-only, this browser only. Actual = last WS pose only. Prediction = coast, soft-correct, AP ghost (default). Both = two ships: prediction (ghost) and actual (last master packet). Mine FX follows published stamps only.

Remotes snap blend

Live 0.25 (default)

How hard remotes ease toward the last master pose while the AP ghost is driving (was 0.55). Lower is slower. Realtime stores the value and pushes it to all players. Range 0.05–1. Default 0.25.

Debug path trail

Off · no pose breadcrumbs

Admin-only, this browser only. When on, every ship in space drops a light ball every 50 ms at its pose; each ball fades out over its own 30 s (oldest disappear first). Local = amber, remotes = cyan.

Structure upkeep

Ingot burns every 5 minutes from the owner corp hold at that structure (commerce K2). Saved on the catalog item — same numbers the industry tick uses. Next 5-minute tick.

Restock desk

Buy-order cover and bid multipliers (commerce K4). Floor stays catalog base value. Empty hold still burns; negative qty is debt and uses the debt bid. Empty treasury still posts the full bid — credits may go negative (credit debt).

Cover target (h) Short below (h) Short bid × Critical below (h) Critical bid × Debt bid × Catch-up cap (h)

Ore desk

Buy ore from miners (not for upkeep), then list it at a markup so the treasury can fund ingot bids. Bots sell at the refinery. They do not smelt.

NPC fleet

Bots running Active miners

…

Haul fill % min Haul fill % max

When attacked Fight chance %

Master off pauses the host bot (rows stay). Active count enables the first N miners by id; the rest stay disabled. Haul fill is % of max hold — min = max uses that exact % for every bot (default 10 / 10 → Scout 8000 m³ hauls at 800). A range staggers bots across it. When attacked (default Run): Run = every miner flees to the nearest station bubble and sits (no return fire); Fight = every armed miner locks that attacker and fires until one ship is destroyed; Random = each miner rolls once on first hit — Fight chance % is the chance they fight (else run). A miner with no Battle Laser / rail / missile still runs. Takes effect within a few seconds.

Presence broadcast s ms Hz

Live 5 s (default)

WS RTT —

How often every pilot (players and NPCs) persist pose on the wire, and how often far NPC ships refresh. Event-on-change (warp / dest / mine / dock / fit) still publishes immediately. Edit seconds, milliseconds, or Hertz — the others match. Realtime stores the value and pushes it to all clients. Range 0.01–120 s. Default 5 s (0.2 Hz). Far roster filter stays NPC-only. Meta actual is this browser’s persist heartbeat only (not dest / intent publishes). Each player and bot pings this socket every 5 s; RTT is the round trip. Ghost one-way uses (host RTT + viewer RTT) / 2.

Roster snapshot ms Hz

Live 80 ms (~12.5 Hz, default)

How often realtime fans the room roster to human browsers (the ~80 ms push). Lower is more frequent and more bandwidth. Realtime stores the value and the running loop picks it up on the next due-check. Range 10–2000. Default 80. Meta actual is how often this browser receives roster (includes network / skipped frames).

NPC think Hz ms

Live 20 Hz (default)

How often host bots and headed-lease brains think (goal / mine / dock). Both poll at 10 ms and think when due (start-to-start; live Hz, no loop restart). Telem follows this clock. Host flight is a separate ~60 Hz loop (same idea as lease rAF). Realtime stores the value and pushes it to all NPCs. Range 5–60. Default 20. Meta actual is host tick cycle time (lease brains are not in that poll).

Host brain

Idle

Safe host bounce: persist last poses, wait for in-flight mine/dock/unload (up to 12 s), then restart the npc-bot process. Headed leases stay with their browsers. Meshes may flicker for a few seconds. Admin only.

Live tuning

Near-human (km) Far mesh grace ms s Snap distance (km) Follow rate Slave coast max s ms Warp cruise accel s ms Warp cruise decel s ms Warp min remaining (km) Warp exit clearance (km) Dock dwell ms s Dock channel ms s

Live · all defaults

One pack for remotes feel, warp start/exit, dock waits, and near-human roster. Warp cruise accel is the launch ramp; warp cruise decel is the exit ramp (0 = drop to hull cruise at the ring). Time fields show both units — edit either and the other matches. Realtime stores the values and pushes them to every player and NPC. Save sends all thirteen fields.

Scope

…

Totals across ship holds, station lockers, and industrial structure storage (refinery ore / refined / factory). Read-only.

NPC headed lease

#	alias	mode	goal	hold	step	act

Lease: off (host owns ACT)

Lease from the Agents table (Perf), Lease next 10 for the next available enabled bots (lowest ids), or Lease all for every enabled bot that is not already leased (no hard cap — browser load is the limit). Leased bots show here — Release / Spectate per row, or Release all. Your browser runs THINK+ACT; host stands down those agents.

NPC spectate

Nav Pilots row Spectate (any range), Agents table Spectate, or banner Exit — swaps HUD / Nav / Mine·Dock onto that ship. Banner Ship is read-only.

NPC tick

…

phase	kind	latest	avg	hi	note

#	act	Hz	cycle	tick	mode	rtt	flight	presence	ws	http	profile	hold	pose	stuck	think	logic	step

What do these numbers mean?

Host bot: per-agent loops (~40 Hz each; shared state). File updates at most every 2s; this panel polls ~every 2.5s. Phase table columns are latest · avg · hi over the last 30 polls. Highlighted rows are relatively hot in that window. Supervisor wall vs agent-sum section are separated. Agents table lists the enabled fleet (default: slowest first by window-avg tick; click headers to sort); timing cells are latest ms. rtt is that bot’s own realtime socket ping (not the ws CPU column). Host-ticked rows show live modes; headed-lease stand-downs show mode leased (also listed on the NPC tab). Row act: Lease / Release / Spectate. Kind tags: API HTTP, DB MySQL, WS realtime socket, file host disk, cpu in-process, wall loop clock, meta counts.

Supervisor wall: Roster/flush loop only (ms). Not a fleet tick barrier — each agent has its own loop.
Agents meta: How many runners have active per-agent loops (batch is CLI-compat only).
Tick ms cpu: Avg / max agent tick spent. Max > target period (~25 ms @ 40 Hz) → that agent’s Hz drops (“Hot agent”).
Updated file: Age of tick-status.json when Admin last read it.

Supervisor phases (not a shared agent barrier)

roster file API: Read roster-rev; realtime HTTP /npc/roster on admin bump (or 60s backup).
runners cpu: Create/teardown in-process agent runners to match the roster.
ticks cpu: Hottest recent agent tick ms (not a fleet barrier — agents loop independently).
saveFlight WS: Realtime flight persist (presence state, in-tick).
goal WS: NPC goal/target/channel updates on each bot’s presence WS (writes pbi_npc_agents). Supervisor phase stays ~0.
unload WS: Per-agent hold unload at station/refinery (player-path WebSocket).
dock WS: Realtime WS dock (player path, in-tick).
undock WS: Realtime WS undock (player path, in-tick).
mine WS: Realtime WS mine (player path, in-tick).
other file: Leftover wall time (flight-log stamp heartbeat, bookkeeping, timer drift).

Agent sums (inside ticks · parallel · not additive to Loop)

flight cpu: Autopilot + physics substeps for each agent.
presence WS: Per-agent realtime WebSocket pose publishes (may show pub count).
ws WS: Realtime mine/dock/undock/unload RPCs (player-path WebSocket — not PHP API).
http API: Loopback HTTP helpers (room map, visual — haul dest is the room-map atlas, not bot-location-xyz).
profile API: Occasional /game/me / bootstrap profile work.
hold API: Hold / inventory refresh work when forced.
pose cpu: Origin wipe / DB pose recover.
stuck cpu: Stuck-watch recovery plans.
think cpu: Goal / nav plan CPU (not WS waits).
logic: On slow-agent rows: tick time not attributed to the buckets above.
