Switching palettes dropped the last frame's timing, so the first frame
fell back to one sample per ~29 pixels and drew a texture pixel in each
square. The first frame is now sized from the previous source's speed,
and coarse frames use block colours instead of texture pixels.
Model used: Claude Opus 5.5
Icons now show each box's top above its front, half as deep and lit as
Minecraft lights each side, so sea pickles, candles and eggs show caps.
Model used: Claude Opus 5.5
A frame asked for while the last one was being taken, like the one that
ends a load, was drawn and swapped before the earlier frame's swap, so
the window kept the old object until something else redrew it.

- Sea pickles, candles, lanterns, turtle eggs and potted plants show their shape instead of their whole unfolded texture
- Flat decorations like pressure plates, rails and lily pads keep their top view
Model used: Claude Opus 5.5
- A frame drawn into a 3D view's window waits until Swing has painted what lies behind the floating panels, so the ground behind the height slider no longer trails the view while it moves
Model used: Claude Opus 5.5
- iris std map opens the v3 map window; noise, palettes, objects, procedural and image maps are views in it
- Rivers view draws v4 hydrology, with an empty state when the pack has rivers off
- 3D views fall back to software when LWJGL isn't on the classpath; modded jars use the game's LWJGL
- FlatLaf and LWJGL join core; v4's separate studio windows are removed
- Natural terrain capture scans columns as block state runs
- Biome samples reuse the palette index of an identical key
- Cave biome capture samples the subterrain planner directly when live
- Repeated object markers skip decoding
- Saved biome encoding hashes each distinct column once
- Bounds starcasts share whole-column base biome samples across threads through a heap-sized lock-free memo
- Erosion raster geometry tracks station owners in paged local arrays and builds its index map in first-visit order
- Structure volume caches read through concurrent maps and publish only current builds
- Natural terrain receipts reuse a per-thread deflater with the platform gzip framing
- Tests pin receipt and saved biome bytes across reused compressors
- Clump randoms use a plain-field LCG with the RNG sequence and a step jump
- Single-block palettes build footprints from row masks and jump the pick draws
- Ellipsoid nodes, row offsets and node sines reuse thread scratch and size tables
- Terrain-scoped footprint plans that cannot reach the chunk surface are skipped
- Above-terrain plans are skipped when no solid host sits above the surface
- Preparation runs as at most four balanced slices with one join per chunk
- Placement caches target, bedrock and replaceable checks per block state
- Roots without selectable children resolve to themselves before the per-column child cache
- Selection plans build through one shared helper for root checks and child selection
- ChunkBakeCache.fillColumns batches the missing requested columns of one chunk plane and publishes them
- BakedDoubleStream and BakedStream expose fillColumns with the per-column fallback when memoization is not allowed
- Carve profile field reads heights, regions, surface and cave biomes from the nine overlapped chunk planes
- Fluid presence samples the fluid plane only for columns below the fluid height
- Carving reuses one dimension carving resolver state per thread scratch
- Bake recent-entry memo holds a 16-slot per-thread chunk table instead of one entry
- Subterrain cells for carve and decoration resolve through a per-chunk sampler with a column height hull instead of per-block engine dispatch
- IrisEngine subterrain lookups read the thread frame and runtime once and memoize the dimension gate, removing the per-call disabled-component list scan
- Unrouted workers resolve cave biomes through the captured carving snapshot and column cache with subterrain biomes checked first
- Captured cave biome lookups bypass the per-voxel hash cache
- Internal carve walls come from word-level column masks instead of hashed neighbor puts, painted after cheap solidity and surface checks
- Floor and ceiling layers are memoized per column when the biome layers do not depend on the zone height
- Zone scanning walks carved runs, the decoration scan memoizes block solidity and reuses the previous block, and waterlogging normalization skips snapshots without hydrology
- Boundary walls read own cells straight from the snapshot; the unused snapshot face builder and face accessors are removed
- Terrain batch scratch marks reset in finally blocks so a failing kernel cannot grow the scratch
- Generator evaluation counters only count when generation counters are enabled
- Core tests run with generation counters enabled
- Bake capacity derived from the heap (13 KB per entry against 1/32 of maxMemory, 2048 to 32768 entries); detached runtimes use the floor
- Pregeneration profile no longer raises the global noise cache size or the bake; it only raises burst parallelism
- Removed the hydrology bake reservation, noise cache budget, expansion machinery and the tile cache terrain preparation hook
- Bake thread recents compare a generation counter; clear empties retired entries
- Removed unused column bake, bake registry and bake accessors
- Object placement bakes split into one per-object layout (palette, tiles, canopy) and per-variant offsets
- Variants beyond the per-object limit are built transiently instead of clearing the variant map
- High-variant golden and no-rebuild tests
- A caller whose submission window is full runs the next component itself instead of parking
- Pass barriers run still-queued component tasks in reverse order before waiting
- Queued component tasks reopen the submitting generation's runtime scope on whichever thread runs them
- Helpers only run queued tasks bound to their own runtime or when they hold none
- A finished submission no longer reports a task as dropped once a helper started it
- Burst worker scope test keeps one stage on a worker while the caller helps
- Cell lattice passes gather every missing corner sample of the pass and evaluate base, detail and modules through NoiseProgram.fillPoints3D
- Warp B samples and single-row warp A samples are evaluated as one point batch per pass; longer warp A runs keep fillColumn3D
- Module bands compact their points before the batch call and scatter back in the original accumulation order
- Lattice batch buffers and their NoiseScratch live in a per-thread CaveLatticeBatch chain that nested carves acquire separately
- Lattice test compares pass-wide point batches against scalar plane density bit for bit
- Hydrology planner height reads reserve bake capacity up to the hydrology cache target from the shared budget
- Planner reservation is released when the complex closes
- Log transaction writes in parallel arrays instead of mutation records
- Replay source plans straight from their packed cells without decoding records
- Build source plans from a log slice
- Journal commit originals in a packed-key set instead of a linked map
- Buffer cave object writes in parallel arrays
- Drop the now-unused import in the runner
