## Summary Removes per-call heap allocations from `Container`'s consume / find / group hot paths and from `BaseCreature.OnDeath`'s fame/karma tracking. The headline wins: kill the `List<List<Item>>` + `Item[][]` + `int[]` grouping bridges in `ConsumeTotal*` / `ConsumeTotalGrouped*` / `GetBestGroupAmount*`, and kill the per-call `Predicate<Item>` allocations in `FindItemsByType(Type)` / `FindItemsByType(Type[])`. ### `Container.cs` - `ConsumeTotal`, `ConsumeTotalGrouped`, `GetBestGroupAmount` now share four streaming helpers (`HasAmount`, `TryFindGroupMeetingAmount`, `BestGroupTotal`, `ConsumeSlice`) backed by `PooledRefList` instead of allocating per-group lists and jagged arrays. Two-phase validate-then-consume pattern preserved — all-or-nothing semantics for spell reagents, vendor pay, and crafting still hold. - `(Type)` / `(Type[])` / `(Type[][])` overload trios collapsed to single `ReadOnlySpan<Type>` + `ReadOnlySpan<int>` implementations. Implicit `T[] → ReadOnlySpan<T>` conversion means UOContent callers compile unchanged. - Unused overloads deleted: `ConsumeTotalGrouped(Type)`, `ConsumeTotalGrouped(Type[][])`, `GetBestGroupAmount(Type)`, `GetBestGroupAmount(Type[][])`, plus the never-called `TryDropItems` hook and its private `ItemStackEntry` struct. - Fixes a `PooledRefList` leak in `GetBestGroupAmount(Type[], …)` (missing `using`). - `m_ContainerData` / `m_Items` / `m_TotalGold` / `m_TotalItems` / `m_TotalWeight` / `ContainerData.m_Table` / `ContainerData.logger` renamed to the underscored convention. `m_Items` cross-file rename for the Container-side references in `Item.cs`; `Item.CompactInfo.m_Items` deliberately left alone (separate effort). - `CheckHold` parent walk simplified; trivial dispatch methods (`CheckHold` overloads, `OnItemAdded`, `OnItemRemoved`, `OnStackAttempt`) get `[MethodImpl(AggressiveInlining)]`; `Destroy` and `DisplayTo` cache `Items` outside the loop; dead comments removed. ### `Item.Enumerable.cs` - `FindItemsByType(Type)` previously allocated a `Predicate<Item>` per call (method-group conversion). `FindItemsByType(Type[])` allocated a closure capturing `types`. Both now construct the enumerator with a `Type` / `ReadOnlySpan<Type>` field directly, no delegate. - `FindItemsByTypeEnumerator<T>` gains two constructors plus a `Matches(T)` helper that picks the right filter inline. Constructor chaining via a private 2-arg seed constructor incidentally fixes a pre-existing bug where `PooledRefQueue` was always rented at capacity 0 because `_recurse` hadn't been assigned yet. - `(Type[])` overload of `FindItemsByType` becomes `(ReadOnlySpan<Type>)`. - `EnumerateItemsByType(Type)` / `EnumerateItemsByType(ReadOnlySpan<Type>)` / `ListItemsByType(Type)` / `ListItemsByType(ReadOnlySpan<Type>)` simplified to delegate to the new alloc-free overloads instead of filtering manually. ### `Utility.cs` - `InTypeList<T>(this T, Type[])` and `InTypeList(this Type, Type[])` switched to `ReadOnlySpan<Type>`. ### `BaseCreature.cs` - `OnDeath` per-death `List<Mobile>` / `List<int>` / `List<int>` for fame/karma tracking switched to `PooledRefList`. |

- 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
