- parent biome lookups read the biome stream directly instead of building the boundary field
- fields are only built where a parent with floating children needs edge distances
- Bukkit noise generation keeps one biome per column until a partial column write
- drops the full-resolution biome array allocation and fill per chunk
- ChunkDataHunkHolder stores cells in a plain array and tracks each column's highest stored y
- natural cave decoration and perfection stop scanning above the column top
- sBiome, floating biomes and publishNaturalMetadata no longer write MatterBiomeInject; nothing reads it
- stack metadata clearing only runs for dimension stacks

Surface hydrology policy split, native terrain height cache, watched-edit
hotload cancellation, world-save requestSave with tracked ownership flush,
background-task drain that follows saves admitted mid-drain, peaceful spawn
guard, cached-completion terminal state, IO drains off the owner thread.
Studio pregen at scale: detached historical runtimes keep the configured
noise cache instead of the Studio-wide cache; retired runtimes are no longer
pinned by the volumetric fragment filter's per-thread scratch; pregen mantle
cleanup and native region flushes run on per-run threads instead of the
server thread and the shared Iris IO pool (the flush on the IO pool starved
tectonic plate loads and wedged every Paper worker in Mantle.getChunks);
background-task cancellation claims tasks atomically.
- Resolve IrisTerrainNormalActuator by keeping master's primitive riverWaterSurfaceStream lookup and primarySurfaceLayerOrNull accessors while retaining the terrain column, span, layer surface and ceiling locals that write air through terrain3D gaps
- Resolve HydrologyFootprintCompiler by keeping the MaterializedSurface planned-surface record with terrain ownership beside master's package-private SurfaceRasterIndex, which retains its ownsTerrain override
- Resolve HydrologyCaveContainmentPlanner by dropping the nested RecordingCaveVoxelView, SurfaceObservations and ViewObservations types that master promoted to their own files
- Port the surface-observation ownership check into CaveSurfaceObservations so cached cave validations replay both height and ownership observations through Observation.matches
- Resolve PackExportClosureTest by keeping master's retirement of the source-text packager guard while retaining the snippet export tests, and restore the Files and Path imports those tests use
- Resolve IrisBiomeLayerSlopeSourceTest by folding the lower-ledge slope palette case into master's lockLayers parameterization
- Recapture the studio schema digest for the terrain3D biome property, its IrisTerrain3D definition, the terrain-3d snippet enumeration and the reworded upperDimensionCarving description, verified by reconstructing the previous digest from the stripped schema
- Add an optional per-biome `terrain3D` profile with density and fissure noise styles, amplitude, horizontal and vertical feature scales, crack depth, width and scale, slope and fluid-clearance gates, and a seed offset, each range-checked before use
- Add a terrain runtime that samples the signed density and fissure fields on a four-block lattice around the biome's generated height and resolves each column into solid spans, so surfaces gain projecting rock, undercuts, ledges and narrow cracks that fade out on flat ground and near the fluid line
- Remove unsupported rock by flood-filling span components across neighbouring columns and dropping any fragment of 512 blocks or fewer, while larger connected masses are kept
- Report the shaped column top as the natural terrain height, keep the unshaped generator height available as a separate stream, and measure surface slope between neighbouring ledge floors instead of the flat heightmap
- Write air through the gaps in the normal terrain actuator, generate a fresh surface palette for every ledge floor, and paint ceiling layers beneath undercuts
- Carry each layer's own column through the dimension stack and upper dimension so stack top heights, solidity and surface lookups follow the spans, and each exposed face draws its palette from its own source height and slope
- Sample a layer's slope condition once per column at the surface being generated, and gate surface decorators on the slope of the ledge they sit on rather than the column heightmap
- Decorate every exposed ledge floor and the ceiling above it during the decorant pass
- Treat shaped openings as surface rather than cave when resolving biomes, skip them during cave carving, suppress cave zone markers inside them, and resolve their boundary biome from the surface biome stream
- Include shaped openings in mantle carve queries and carved columns, fall back to terrain solidity for surface-solid checks across stack, upper and normal terrain, and answer both queries from the island mask when placing objects on floating islands
- Let the hydrology planned surface report whether it owns a column, so the cave voxel view consults natural terrain solidity where hydrology does not own the terrain, and split replayed plan observations into height and ownership records
- Validate `terrain3D` on biomes and `snippet/terrain-3d` snippets as a blocking pack error, rejecting unknown fields, wrong types, out-of-range numbers, unknown noise styles, style nesting past 32 levels and snippet references that escape the pack
- Copy the whole snippet tree during modded studio pack export through one shared routine instead of only `snippet/style`, so terrain and nested style snippets survive export
- Add a terrain probe and Gradle task that generates real pack chunks, compares predicted column geometry against the actual blocks, requires retained overhang coverage for named biomes, reports detached-component topology, and writes cross-section images with a JSON summary
- Enumerate image-mapped regions and skip compat-excluded ones when collecting biomes for stacked and upper dimension terrain
- Remove the accessor allocation comparison whose per-call byte counts depend on escape analysis timing and failed under load, keeping the three behavioral accessor tests
- Make IrisInterpolation extend the VolmLib IrisInterpolation and delete the nine numerically identical statics it duplicated: hermite, cubic, bicubic, bihermite, trihermite, tricubic, lerp, blerp and trilerp
- Keep the Iris rangeScale because the VolmLib copy short-circuits bmax == bmin and generation output must not move
- Ship the VolmLib IrisInterpolation and InterpolationMethod by removing their unusedVolmLibClasses entries
- Make StorageHunk, ArrayHunk, AtomicHunk, SynchronizedArrayHunk, AtomicDoubleHunk, AtomicIntegerHunk and AtomicLongHunk extend their VolmLib counterparts and only bind the Iris Hunk interface
- Drop the Lombok data, equals and hashCode generation the duplicated storage hunks carried
- Ship the VolmLib storage hunks by removing their unusedVolmLibClasses entries
- Delete unused board BoardSettings and ScoreDirection wrappers around the VolmLib board types
- Delete unused inventorygui UIStaticDecorator, Window and WindowResolution wrappers around the VolmLib inventorygui types
