## Summary Adds two pieces of pathfinding tooling on top of PR #2448's lazy `.swb` infrastructure: - **`PathfindRecorder`** — admin-toggled JSONL telemetry capture; one record per `BitmapAStarAlgorithm.Find` call. Output format matches the BDN harness corpus, so production traffic can be captured and replayed in benchmarks without an adapter. - **Public bake helpers on `StepCache`** — `ComputeLiveTileDataHash`, `TryReadTileDataHashFromFile`, `BakeMap`, `ClearResidentChunks`. Lets the benchmark project (and any future bake utility) drive cache fill + persist without exposing internal types. The companion BDN harness update lives in [ModernUO-Benchmarks#kb/pathfinding-pr4-bench](https://github.com/modernuo/ModernUO-Benchmarks/tree/kb/pathfinding-pr4-bench): porting `Benchmarks/PathfindInGame/` from the `kb/ai_pathfinding` branch to the API shipped in #2446–#2448. ## What's in this PR ### `PathfindRecorder` (`PathfindRecorder.cs`) - Holds a single `StreamWriter` open while recording; its internal buffer absorbs per-record writes without per-call `File.AppendAllText`. - Single `bool` check on the hot path; cheap when disabled. - Disabling flushes + disposes; an IO failure during write also disables the recorder. - Server config: - `pathfinding.recorder.enable` — bool, default `false`. Read on boot via `GetOrUpdateSetting`. - `pathfinding.recorder.path` — default `<basedir>/Data/Pathfinding/recordings/pathfinds.jsonl`. - Hooked into `BitmapAStarAlgorithm.Find` — runs once per call, does nothing when disabled. - Admin command: `[PathRecord [on|off|flush|status]` (default `status`). ### Public cache helpers - `static ulong StepCache.ComputeLiveTileDataHash()` — wraps the file module's hash function for staleness checks. - `static bool StepCache.TryReadTileDataHashFromFile(string, out ulong)` — peeks at a `.swb` file's hash field (20 bytes). - `int StepCache.BakeMap(int, string)` — walks every chunk in the map, populates resident set, saves. Offline / fixture use; blocks for many seconds on a full-map walk. - `void StepCache.ClearResidentChunks()` — drops chunks + zeros counters but keeps lazy readers open. Lets benchmark loops measure "first query after boot" cost across iterations without the lazy-reader reopen overhead. |

Getting Started
- Install prerequisite requirements
- Clone this repository (or download the latest):
git clone https://github.com/modernuo/ModernUO.git
- Open
ModernUO.slnto start developing
Building/Publishing
Interactive Mode (Recommended for new users)
Run ./publish.cmd (Windows) or ./publish.sh (Linux/macOS) with no arguments to launch the guided build tool. It will:
- Check prerequisites (.NET SDK, native libraries)
- Walk you through configuration and platform selection
- Build and publish the server to the
Distributiondirectory - Show deployment instructions for cross-compiled builds
Command Line
./publish.cmd [release|debug] [os] [arch]
os- Supported operating systemsarchx64- Intel/AMD 64-bitarm64- ARM 64-bit
Linux Prerequisites
Fedora, CentOS, RHEL, etc
dnf upgrade --refresh -y
# CentOS does not come with EPEL enabled
dnf install -y epel-release epel-next-release
dnf install -y findutils libicu libdeflate-devel zstd libargon2-devel liburing-devel
Ubuntu, Debian, etc
apt-get update -y
apt-get install -y libicu-dev libdeflate-dev zstd libargon2-dev liburing-dev
OSX Requirements
brew install icu4c libdeflate zstd argon2
Running the Server
- Follow the publish instructions
- The
Distributiondirectory is portable — copy it to your production server for deployment - Run
ModernUO.exeordotnet ModernUO.dllfrom theDistributiondirectory - On first run, the server will prompt you to configure game data file locations
