Fix [add command failing with ambiguous type names + refactor for performance
### Problem
[add blight would fail with "No type with that name was found" because multiple types contain "blight" (e.g., Server.Items.Blight, Server.Ethics.Evil.Blight, Server.Items.BlightGrippedLongbow, Server.Items.QuiverOfBlight). The old code only succeeded when exactly one type matched the search regardless of constructability and inheriting Mobi les/Items.
### Solution
Exact match takes priority: If a type's name exactly equals the search string (case-insensitive), use it directly. Otherwise, show the AddGump with all partial matches.
- [add blight → Creates Blight (exact name match)
- [add bligh → Shows gump with Blight, BlightGrippedLongbow, etc.
### Refactoring
- CommandEventArgs context: Added GetContext<T>/SetContext<T> to pass resolved type through the command chain without method signature changes
- Removed TrySetupTarget duplication: Validation now happens only in ValidateArgs, eliminating redundant code paths
- Split type matching:
- ExactMatch(string) → Returns Type for exact name match (used by [add)
- MatchEmptyCtor(string) → Returns ConstructorInfo[] for gump display (empty-callable constructors only)
### Memory & Performance Improvements
| Optimization | Benefit |
|-------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| _mobileItemTypes cache | Filters Mobile/Item types once per assembly, reused on all subsequent searches |
| ReadOnlySpan<string> for args | Avoids string[] heap allocations when slicing arguments |
| ValueStringBuilder | Stack-allocated string building, avoids StringBuilder heap allocation |
| Single type resolution | Type resolved once in ValidateArgs, passed via context to Execute (was resolved 2-3x before) |
### Summary
- Create BitMask256 struct with scalar operations (benchmarks showed AVX2 vectorization provides no benefit for this size)
- Refactor Map.cs to use BitMask256 for full Z range support (-128 to 127)
- Remove SectorSpawnCache struct, use BitMask256 directly in manager
- Update tests to use BitMask256 directly
- Remove unused test assertions for old 64-bit behavior
### Summary
- Adds CanSpawnMobile(x, y, minZ, maxZ, canSwim, cantWalk, out spawnZ) overload for finding spawn surfaces within a Z range
- Adds CanSpawnItem(x, y, minZ, maxZ, out spawnZ) for item spawning with Surface+Impassable support (tables, furniture)
- Uses bitmask optimization inspired by Item.DropToWorld's m_OpenSlots pattern for O(1) surface/blocker checks
- HomeRange spawners now use surface detection to set proper Z bounds
### Key Changes
Map.cs:
- CanSpawnMobile with Z-range finds lowest valid surface for mobiles
- CanSpawnItem with Z-range finds lowest valid surface for items (including tables)
- CanFitItem for point-check item placement on Surface+Impassable tiles
- Bitmask approach eliminates nested loops and stackalloc arrays
Spawners:
- Simplified GetSpawnPosition using new Z-range methods
- HomeRange setter detects surface below spawner for proper Z bounds
- Consistent handling for mobiles and items
### Bug Fixes
- Water tiles (Impassable | Wet) no longer block swimming mobs
- Items can now spawn on tables/furniture (Surface+Impassable)
### Test Plan
- Run dotnet test - 631 tests pass
- Manual testing: multi-story spawning, water mobs, item spawning on tables
- Verify HomeRange spawner movement shifts bounds correctly
### Summary
This PR transitions the spawner system from a simple radius-based model to a flexible 3D boundary system.
### Core Changes
* **Replaced `HomeRange` with `SpawnBounds`**: Spawners now use a `Rectangle3D` to define spawn areas instead of a circular integer range.
* **Backward Compatibility**:
* The `HomeRange` property remains as a helper that generates square `SpawnBounds` centered on the spawner.
* Included a migration path (v10 to v11) that automatically converts old range data into new bounds during deserialization.
* **Dynamic Bounds Shifting**: If a spawner is moved, its `SpawnBounds` will automatically shift with it, provided the bounds are currently configured as a centered square.
* **New Spawn Logic**: Added `SpawnLocationIsHome` toggle. If enabled, spawned mobiles treat their exact spawn coordinates as their "Home" rather than the spawner's location.
### Implementation Details
* **Interface Updates**: Updated `ISpawner` to include `WalkingRange`, `SpawnBounds`, and `IsInSpawnBounds()`.
* **UI Enhancements**: The Spawner Controller Gump now displays "Custom" for complex bounds and allows copying of the new boundary properties between spawners.
* **Refactored Constructors**: Streamlined `BaseSpawner`, `ProximitySpawner`, and `RegionSpawner` constructors to support the new data types.
### Summary
* Adds better `SaveFlag` support.
* Fixes `SortedSet` support.
* Adds custom comparer support for `SortedSet`.
* Fixes various bugs.
* Adds support for `struct`, `record`, and `generic` classes.
* Adds support for `readonly` fields by skipping serializaton entirely.
* Adds support for interface fields that inherit ISerializable
* Adds tests.

**Example Usage:**
How to use `minDistance` to terminate early when all subsequent mobiles in the iteration will be at an increasing min distance.
```csharp
var playerLocation = player.Location;
const int maxRange = 100;
const int maxMobiles = 12;
var closestMobiles = new SortedSet<Mobile>(Comparer<Mobile>.Create((x, y) =>
{
var distX = x.GetDistanceToSqrt(playerLocation);
var distY = y.GetDistanceToSqrt(playerLocation);
int result = distX.CompareTo(distY);
if (result == 0)
{
result = (x?.Serial ?? Serial.MinusOne).CompareTo(y?.Serial ?? Serial.MinusOne);
}
return result;
}));
int lastMinDistance = 0;
foreach (var (mobile, minDistance) in map.GetMobilesInRangeByDistance(playerLocation, maxRange))
{
// Stop if we have enough and distance starts increasing
if (closestMobiles.Count >= maxMobiles && minDistance > lastMinDistance)
{
break;
}
closestMobiles.Add(mobile);
lastMinDistance = minDistance;
}
// Results are already ordered by proximity
foreach (var mobile in closestMobiles)
{
var actualDistance = mobile.GetDistanceToSqrt(playerLocation);
Console.WriteLine($"{mobile.Name}: ActualDist={actualDistance:F2}");
}
```
> [!IMPORTANT]
> **Dev Note:** This is an **important** patch as the bug could lead to major issues like:
> * Multis/Players disappearing from view or not being counted during game logic.
> * World processes (e.g., area checks, targeting) failing to detect entities correctly.
> * General stability and correctness concerns for core map functionality.
>
> **Important Breaking Change**: Multis now properly use the map link list. This means modifying a multi while iterating will cause the server to crash. The crash _is expected_. Please modify/fix code accordingly to create a list using `PooledRefQueue` or `PooledRefList` instead of moving/deleting multis while inside the foreach.
### Summary
* Fixes a bug where deleting/moving a multi (boat/house) in some circumstances can use undefined behavior due to unsafe changes to List<BaseMulti>
* Fixes a bug where Multis may not be considered while searching due to a bug causing the sector search to end early.
> [!IMPORTANT]
> **Developer Note**
> THIS IS A BREAKING CHANGE TO THE NEW API GUMP.
> Please give us feedback in [discord ](https://muo.gg/discord) if you have issues, need help, or have ideas for a better API change!
### Summary
* Adds support for size/style to dynamic/static builder.
* Drastically simplifies the dynamic/static builder api for AddHtml.
* Cleans up some legacy gump files.
* Initial plan
* Add SerializableFieldDefault attributes for LeftSeeds and LeftResources
This fixes the serialization bug where _leftSeeds and _leftResources were initialized to 8 in the constructor but didn't serialize when their value was 0. Upon deserialization, the constructor would run again and reset these values back to 8.
The SerializableFieldDefault attributes tell the serialization system that the default value is 8, so it will properly serialize 0 values and maintain the correct state across server restarts.

* Update ShouldSerialize methods to check against default value
Changed ShouldSerializeLeftSeeds() and ShouldSerializeLeftResources() to check if the value is != 8 (the default) instead of != 0. This ensures that only non-default values are serialized, following the same pattern used in BaseWeapon.cs and other classes with SerializableFieldDefault attributes.
