# Key scope is the filename: Bridge.cfg + StatSweepSeconds => "Bridge.StatSweepSeconds".

Host=127.0.0.1
Port=7788

# Outbound queue cap. On overflow the plugin drops oldest and counts the drops,
# because a stalled sidecar must never OOM the shard.
QueueCap=10000

# Sweep intervals, seconds. Measured on a 150-character shard: a vitals sweep costs
# 0.0015 ms/char, so 1000 online players is ~1.5 ms per sweep. See https://gitea.whitlocktech.com/RunicGateway/docs/src/branch/main/link/PLAN.md §1.

DecaySweepSeconds=60
EconomySweepSeconds=300

# Champion-spawn board poll. ChampionSpawn has no EventSink, so every spawn is diffed on
# this interval to emit champ.update on any status/level/kills/boss change. The world holds
# only a handful of spawns, so the pass is trivial; 5-10s is well within site tolerance.
ChampSweepSeconds=10

# Help-page queue poll. The in-game page queue has no EventSink, so it is diffed on this
# interval to emit page.new / page.closed / page.updated. A few seconds is fine for a
# support queue; the full open queue is also available on demand via pages.snapshot.
PageSweepSeconds=5

# Guild roster poll (https://gitea.whitlocktech.com/RunicGateway/docs/src/branch/main/link/PROTOCOL_2.md Part B). Guilds expose only EventSink.JoinGuild, so
# create/disband/leave/leader/alliance changes are found by diffing BaseGuild.List on this
# interval (emit guild.update / guild.remove). Guild membership moves slowly; 60s is ample.
GuildSweepSeconds=60

# Members per guild.roster frame (Protocol 4). A roster is the only fat frame the bridge emits
# (~69 bytes per member) and the sidecar reads a line with no length bound, so this caps it; a
# guild over the cap is split across continuation frames carrying seq/more. 500 members is ~35 KB,
# past any realistic guild, so the split path is an edge case rather than the norm.
GuildRosterMembersPerLine=500

# Guilds that may emit a roster in one sweep. Every guild looks changed right after a sidecar
# reconnect, and building hundreds of fat frames in a single Core-thread pass is exactly the stall
# the bridge exists to avoid. The sweep re-arms itself every 2s while a baseline is draining, so
# lowering this slows the catch-up without making the site wait a full sweep interval per batch.
GuildRosterGuildsPerTick=25

# Town-governor poll. Each city's Governor / election is diffed on this interval to emit
# city.update on change. Governors turn over on the order of weeks, so a slow sweep is fine.
# Idle (emits nothing) unless the City Loyalty system is enabled (CityLoyalty.Enabled).
CitySweepSeconds=300

# Presence poll. Online population (total, per-facet, per-region) is snapshotted on this
# interval and emitted as presence.online only when it changes. Region transitions come
# through separately in real time as region.enter (EventSink.OnEnterRegion).
PresenceSweepSeconds=30

# Housing registry poll. Every house is diffed on this interval to emit house.update /
# house.remove (owner, region, location, decay). Houses change slowly; a few minutes is fine.
HousingSweepSeconds=300

# Points / loyalty leaderboards (https://gitea.whitlocktech.com/RunicGateway/docs/src/branch/main/link/v3.md §7). ServUO carries ~25 point
# currencies (Queen's Loyalty, Void Pool, Casino, Clean Up Britannia, the nine city loyalties,
# the Doom/Khaldun/Kotl treasure systems, …). Each is diffed on this interval and emitted as
# one points.board frame per system when its top N moves.
#
# Slow on purpose: these are month-scale standings, and ten of the systems keep a row for
# every character ever created, so the pass is the widest read in the bridge. It is still
# cheap — a single bounded pass, never a sort — but there is nothing to gain by hurrying it.
PointsSweepSeconds=300

# Master switch for the boards. Off leaves char.profile points alone (see below).
PointsLeaderboardEnabled=true

# How many players per board. Clamped to 1..100 — the frame is emitted PER SYSTEM, so a big
# N is multiplied by ~25.
PointsTopN=10

# Which systems to publish, as a comma-separated list of PointsType names, e.g.
#   PointsSystems=QueensLoyalty,CleanUpBritannia,VoidPool
# Blank (the default) publishes whatever the shard itself shows on the in-game loyalty gump
# (ShowOnLoyaltyGump), so a subsystem you add later gets a board without an edit here.
# An unrecognized name is logged and ignored, never silently dropped.
PointsSystems=

# Include a per-character "points" block in char.profile (the website character sheet). This
# is a lookup across every published system's table, so it is the dominant cost of building a
# profile; turn it off on a very large shard that does not want the sheet paying for it.
PointsProfileEnabled=true

# Also compute each system's rank in that block. OFF by default and worth leaving off: a
# points lookup stops at the character's own row, but a rank must count every row that beats
# them, in every system, on every profile build. The website already derives rank from the
# board for anyone in the top N.
PointsProfileRank=false

# Player-vendor market index (https://gitea.whitlocktech.com/RunicGateway/docs/src/branch/main/link/v3.md §8). Every player vendor's shop name,
# owner, location and priced inventory, published as one vendor.listing frame per vendor so the
# website can offer the search the in-game Vendor Search gump offers. Honours each player's own
# in-game opt-out (the vendor's VendorSearch flag) — hide your vendor in game and it is hidden
# on the site too.
MarketEnabled=true

# Sweep interval. UNLIKE every other sweep here, a tick does NOT walk the whole world: it
# inventories at most MarketSweepBatch vendors and a persistent cursor round-robins through the
# rest, so the per-tick cost is bounded by the batch rather than by how many vendors exist. Full
# coverage takes ceil(vendors / batch) x MarketSweepSeconds — 500 vendors at the defaults is one
# complete pass every 20 minutes, and the site labels the data with how stale it may be.
#
# Lower this (or raise the batch) for faster coverage; both trade directly against per-tick cost,
# and the expensive part is the item walk, which recurses into every container a vendor is selling.
MarketSweepSeconds=60
MarketSweepBatch=25

# Per-vendor listing cap, after which the frame carries "truncated": true. A commodity reseller
# with thousands of stacked resources is a real thing, and an uncapped frame for one is measured

# Shard ruleset (https://gitea.whitlocktech.com/RunicGateway/docs/src/branch/main/link/v3.md §5). One world.ruleset frame — expansion, which
# systems are on, skill/stat caps, account and house limits, champion scroll rules —
# emitted on every sidecar connect (and on [bridge reload), so the website's rules page
# cannot drift from the server. Not a sweep: it changes only when you edit a .cfg.
#
# The frame is built from an explicit allowlist of keys in BridgeRuleset.cs. Server.cfg,
# Staff.cfg, Email.cfg, DataPath.cfg, Bridge.cfg, Compiler.cfg, Reports.cfg and Client.cfg
# are never read.
RulesetEnabled=true

# The one connection detail the bridge will publish, e.g. play.myshard.com,2593. Blank
# (the default) omits it entirely. Server.cfg's Address/Listen/Port are NEVER published —

# Leases and the participation ledger: the website holding a live config value for a bounded
# time, and this shard counting who took part in a run. Both are driven on a SCHEDULE, by an
# event the website starts unattended.
#
# This is deliberately NOT AdminWriteEnabled. Turning the admin plane on is consenting to
# staff moderation driven from a screen a human is looking at; turning this on is consenting
# to the website changing and watching your world at four in the morning. One switch could
# not honestly express both.
#
# A lease always carries its own deadline and this shard restores the baseline when it
# passes, whether or not the website is ever heard from again -- and a lease is never written
# to disk, so a restart puts every leased value back too.
