fix: make StartPos restores and Windows backups fail safe - #135
Merged
Conversation
Reported issues, all reproduced and fixed: - Loading a StartPos from another room did nothing and stalled. The load reached the deferred-load boundary and returned without a word; three silent exits now report themselves. - Persistent slot 4 stopped loading after a map round trip. A failed restart copy left a pending entry forever, and the pending guard then refused the slot. Clearing now happens in a finally, so a future exit path cannot reintroduce it. - The Diagnostic logging level still emitted VERBOSE and TRACE. The enum ladder put Diagnostic above Verbose while the aggregation gates treated it as quieter. Reordered, and the level now saves immediately instead of only on a clean overlay close. - Frame time dropped after placing a StartPos. The HUD label path ran a SHA-256 and a File.Exists per slot per frame. Memoized, with the existence cache invalidated at every writer. - Lag spikes were Celeste's own GC.Collect on every death, a ~230 ms blocking collection. Deferred behind a new Defer Engine GC option and paid once at the next StartPos load. Found while verifying, and fixed: - Restore deleted every save file and then threw when it reached a native library Akron holds open. It now extracts to a staging directory and swaps by rename, so the irreversible step is last. - A snapshot holding an IntPtr could be written but never rebuilt. The holder was CompareInfo._sortHandle, a BCL collation handle, now treated as a live resource. - Culture-aware hash collections restored with working enumeration and broken lookups, because hash codes are seeded per process. Bucket indexes are re-derived in place. - A destroyed entity's trail snapshots survived UnloadLevel and paired with saved nodes. TryLoadFreshRoom now clears them first, matching Celeste's own Level.Reload ordering. - Settings could hang the game and truncate modsettings. The save no longer drains an Everest coroutine on the game thread and writes atomically. - Warm StartPos clones are bounded by bytes rather than slot count, after measuring 13.7 MB per slot on vanilla against 77 MB on a heavy modded map. Snapshot and pack formats move to v8. Documents written before the trail and exclusion changes encode paths against a different baseline, and the index shift can swap two same-typed entities rather than refuse. Existing StartPos slots and .akr packs must be recreated. Known open, documented in code with reproductions: state slots added without names bypass the callback slot check, an unpaired entity can take a list slot on structural budget alone, and a keyed anchor can be satisfied by the wrong object through the structural-path override.
AkronHudRenderer called AkronModule.TryUse as a method argument, so the call ran whether or not the readout was drawn. Speed Number and Dash Number were recorded about sixty times a second with both settings turned off, which pinned the attempt status to Cheat on every install from the moment a level loaded. Measured in game before and after. Also fix the plural in the StartPos memory-trim toast when a single slot is dropped.
…re reporting Setting a StartPos while a textbox was on screen failed on every map. Atlas was already a live resource but had no detached resolver, so an atlas the freshly loaded room does not reference could not be resolved and the whole capture was refused. A room that has just loaded holds no Textbox, so the baseline never references GFX.Portraits while the live room does. Two atlases sharing a key now refuse rather than get guessed between. Restore reported "live reload failed: no save slot could be determined" on every successful restore from the main menu, and skipped the overworld rebuild that makes the restored files visible. It asked which slot the backup belonged to, where the question is which slot is open; at the main menu none is, and that is not a failure. The rebuild now always runs, a throw after the swap no longer surfaces as "Restore failed", and a failed reload drops the stale save data instead of leaving the one copy that could overwrite the restored file. Saves/AkronRestore is removed when its last work folder goes, using a non-recursive delete so it cannot be taken out from under a concurrent restore. Corrects four comments about Windows rename semantics: an open handle blocks a rename in every share mode, but a loaded image blocks only delete, so the owned-folder list rather than a failed rename is what protects the native library.
Snapshots were never swept, so every format change orphaned one file per slot permanently and nothing ever reclaimed them. At 1.84 MB per slot that is 28 MB on a fifteen-slot save and reproduces the 207-238 MB folder that made startup backups evict a player's backup history. A file is removed only when its whole name has the shape this build writes with a lower version number: current extension, a digest-length run of lower-case hex, and a matching stem and separator. The prefix, digest length and extension are read back out of the path builder at run time rather than written down, so a future format change needs no edit here. An old-format file cannot be read by this build at all, so there is no liveness question to get wrong. Same-format orphans are deliberately not swept. A save file cannot see another save file's catalog, the snapshot lands on disk before the catalog entry that claims it, and a foreign catalog that deserializes to an empty map reads as referencing nothing, which would delete that save file's whole set of StartPos states. The catalog-level messages about slots saved by an older Akron now read the persisted slot catalog rather than the snapshot file the sweep removes, so they survive the first launch after a format change.
The snapshot sweep removes the file the old-format message used to read, so the message that named the cause became unreachable and was replaced by one that only described the symptom. Each persisted slot now records the saved-state format it was written under, stamped where the entry is built rather than by the sweep. The sweep runs off-thread before any save file is loaded and only sees digests, so it cannot reach the catalog at all; a stamp written when the slot is set also rewrites itself whenever the slot is set again, and answers for slots whose file was already gone before the sweep ran. An entry with no stamp reads as older, which is true by construction: the field ships in the release that moves the format, so a build that wrote no stamp wrote its states under a format this build refuses. The comparison is numeric so a slot written by a newer build is not called older. A slot whose state is missing for some other reason - a restored backup, a file deleted by hand - now says so instead of blaming an update the stamp proves did not happen. Both messages were split so the sentence can be chosen from a catalog the tests can build. Headless has no save data, so the previous tests could only pin source text, and an earlier version of this message shipped unreachable because slots without runtime state are dropped before it can fire. The direct load and the Previous/Next path are each pinned inside the method that calls them.
The reconstruction graph held positive proof that a candidate was not the saved object - a live-resource key that did not match, or a map entity id the map no longer places - and threw that proof away whenever a structural path with wildcarded list indices had a same-typed occurrence, matching by position instead. The load then reported success. Measured scope: any map entity whose id differs between Set and Load, reproducible in about thirty lines with no ghost, no trails and no components. Whether a token can be waived cannot be decided at restore, because by then the saved object and the map it was saved against are gone. Each node now carries two facts recorded at capture: whether its resource key names the resource itself rather than labelling this process's copy, and whether the map laid its entity id out. A token carrying either may no longer be waived. The cost is 88 gzipped bytes on a two thousand entity room. The map rule is scoped to the room being restored. An entity the player carries between rooms keeps the id the map gave it in its own room, so an unscoped rule refused a slot in one room over an edit to another - a golden berry run makes every slot in a chapter depend on the first room's ids. The rule is also checked before the resolvers rather than after them. Bound through a fresh field alias, a saved state otherwise landed on the entity an edited map calls something else and relabelled it. The saved-state contract moves to akron-reconstruction-v9 and packs to akron-setup-v6. A state written without these two facts reads as if the answer to both were no, which is the weaker guarantee under the newer name, so it is refused rather than read. Not closed, and documented where the code makes the claim: the map half does not cover the action-state document, mod-owned assemblies are not file-backed so their keys are still waived, and the occurrence budget stays order dependent.
Two objects the graph could still match wrongly while reporting success. A resource key was trusted only when its assembly came off disk, and Everest loads every mod through LoadFromStream, so no mod assembly ever qualified. A saved mod type could be replaced by whatever the fresh room held at the same position - measured against a real assembly loaded through a real Everest module context, where the saved type came back as System.String. The question was wrong rather than the answer: the load context is what separates a mod's shipped library from bytes a mod compiled at startup, and nothing on the assembly itself can. Everest's own context is now trusted, a dynamic assembly is not, and a member token is still refused because tokens move when an assembly is rebuilt at the same version. A state machine's callback slots were matched by name, and nine widely used helpers add states by resizing the callback arrays and never the names, so both sides read as unnamed, that counted as agreement, and a shifted slot was accepted. Refusing every unnamed slot was measured and rejected: rooms that hold one restore correctly today, so it would cost those helpers' users every load. An unnamed slot is now matched by the code it runs, its update and coroutine by declaring type and method. The begin and end callbacks are left out so a mod that rewires its own state's edges still loads. Both add refusals. A mod that bumps its assembly version between saving a slot and loading it is refused; the five helpers checked all ship 1.0.0.0 release after release, keeping their version in everest.yaml as Everest intends. A mod that changes an unnamed state's own update or coroutine mid-play is refused, which cannot be helped: with no name, that is indistinguishable from the shift this catches.
…keeps The occurrence count could admit a reference edge with nothing proving identity, and the verdict depended on the order two entities happened to sit in the saved file. Reversing them turned the same room from a refusal into a load that reported success while the room was wrong: the object the reload built was dropped, a reconstruction took its slot, and a live component pointed at the reconstruction while its sibling still pointed at the object the reload made. Renumbering is not how a room reaches that state. An entity's id comes from the map binary, so it cannot change while the map does not. What reaches it is a session that builds a different one of two same-typed map entities across two loads, which a mod does through the flag its entity loader reads. The map is identical on both sides. An edge the count has admitted may no longer write a reconstruction into a named field of a fresh object when that field holds something another node of the same document is already paired with. That proves nothing about identity; it finds the document contradicting itself about one room. Every fresh owner is known before any edge is validated, so the answer does not depend on the order the file happens to be in. The rule tests whether the displaced value is paired, not whether the slot is occupied. Refusing on any occupied slot was built and measured first, and it refused a room that restores correctly today, where a fresh entity takes back a peer the saved frame kept while the reload cached another. One cost, in the source comment: the room that used to pin the accounting line now refuses for this rule instead, so reverting that line no longer fails a test. The line is kept.
Four refusal reasons are new on this branch and one of them, a deferred compiler iterator whose owner the freshly loaded room does not supply, had no test naming it. Comment out the one line that checks it and a restore succeeds while a coroutine advances an iterator over a sprite the room does not hold. Three existing refusals also changed and none were covered. The one worth having is a refused delegate method now carrying the type it belongs to, which is what lets the message name the mod instead of printing a graph path, and nothing pinned it as far as the sentence a player reads. Each test is proved against the individual source change it covers, and the iterator fixture reuses the existing sprite-routine scene so it keeps the shape the game produces: the sprite animating, the coroutine holding no entity, and the stack built by driving Monocle's own update twice. One test was written and then deleted. It aimed at a clause that nothing reaches, which an instrumented run over the whole suite confirmed, and a test whose comment claims a revert-proof it does not have is worse than no test.
A slot refused because the map no longer places an entity it saved was
described by asking which mod owns the entity's type. For a vanilla type
that answers nobody, so a player who updated a collab was told to report
an Akron bug about a refusal working exactly as designed. For a helper's
entity it answered the helper, sending the player to that mod's settings
when the map is what moved.
The entity's type is not what is wrong, so attribution is the wrong
question to ask first. The refusal now carries what kind of refusal it is
from the throw site through to the sentence, and the map kind picks its
family before the assembly split is consulted.
before: this room has no Refill to match, and no mod owns it. If your
mods have not changed, this is an Akron bug; report
akron-current.log.
after: this map no longer places the Refill the slot saved. Updating a
map or a collab does this. Set the slot again.
Which slots load is unchanged; the only new branch is inside the message
builder. The full path and every flag still go to the log on the line
above the sentence.
The bug-report sentence stays for the refusals that mean it, proved by two
rooms that both refuse on a vanilla type and produce different sentences,
so the split is by kind rather than by who wrote the type.
A backup records the files it could not read so the gap is known before it matters, and the restore never looked at that record. It checked the pre-restore backup for completeness and not the one the player chose, so restoring a backup that had skipped a save file moved the live file aside, moved nothing back, and then deleted the copy. The restore is refused now. Refusing rather than warning, because the prompt only appears in a level and the main menu path has none. The metadata is parsed properly instead of by hand, and an exception message containing a tab no longer writes invalid JSON into it. Map data is read off the persist worker thread, where the game thread is free to rebuild the area list underneath it. The bounds checks turned a stale read into no evidence but could still throw, which surfaced as a bare exception at the document root. The read now fails closed and the comment says what it actually guarantees. Absent map data and a map that places nothing were the same value, so a room the map does not describe could be reported to the player as a map that dropped their entity. They are now distinct, and each side reads the one it needs. Also: a rollback during a snapshot install can no longer throw out of a dispose, a cancelled capture reports as cancelled rather than as an exception, the startup sweep cannot escape its own task, a state driver comparison no longer assumes a fixed field order, four persistence locking and shutdown gaps are closed, and a comment claiming a size limit that never existed is corrected.
A review read the deferral in CreateAuthenticatedObject as weakening a node, because taking it skips the structural-authentication block while the later check asks a different question. The mechanism is right and the predicted room is wrong: a coroutine-stack iterator held three times is refused by the released build too, one gate later, since three references need three unspent fresh occurrences and no document has them. The room that regresses holds a compiler iterator once. Monocle stores a coroutine's argument raw and only wraps it on update, so a coroutine that never updated holds its iterator once and a single unspent occurrence admits it. Tween.Wait is such an iterator. That room loads on the released build and is refused here. Nothing is fixed. The obvious repair keeps the node in the authenticated runtime set, which licenses the alias edge that makes the displacement guard return early, and a probe then writes a reconstruction over a live iterator the document still keeps and reports success. The control refuses that room, this branch refuses it, and only the repair accepts it, so the repair is worse than the regression it closes. The comment claiming the deferral does not weaken anything is replaced with both halves of the measurement and a note naming the wrong restore, so the next reader does not rediscover the same dead end. Five cases pin current behaviour, none asserting a fix, taking this refusal from one naming test to four. The fixtures also stop lying about mid-flight state: a real clean reload updates a coroutine once, not twice, empty coroutines report finished, and the update counts are named with the measurement written beside them.
A compiler iterator is asked two independent questions: whether its captured owner is authentic, which is identity-bearing and the only thing that justifies reading the authenticated runtime set, and whether the fresh room supplies its type at its path, which is the ordinary licence every reconstruction holds. Deferring the owner question threw the structural answer away with it, because both were one flag. A room holding a compiler iterator once therefore refused where the released build loads it. Monocle stores a coroutine's argument raw and only wraps it on update, so a coroutine that never updated holds its iterator once and a single unspent occurrence admits it. Tween.Wait is such an iterator, and an entity that adds one beside the tween it waits on is an ordinary room. The deferral now defers only the owner question. The structural answer travels with the node, and verification has three outcomes: the owner proof lands and nothing changes, nothing admits the node and it is refused as before, or something else admits it and the node stands while its provisional membership of the authenticated runtime set is withdrawn. Withdrawal happens before the readers of that set run. Measured against a build of the released code, on the same fixture text: the room that regressed loads again and its room is identical to the control's, a room with no evidence still refuses, and the wrong restore that blocked the obvious repair still refuses here. Two pinned cases move with this: a deferred node no longer answers the exact-parent-slot predicate, which was able to replace the owner refusal with a typeless field-unavailable message after a mod update, and the coroutine-stack room now refuses at the edge rather than at the owner.
…oads An edge whose ownership was already proved did not need an occurrence to be admitted, but it still spent one, so whether a later edge of the same type had anything left to spend depended on where the file happened to put them. Two instances of one mod entity, each with a component holding a lazily built state object, load in one document order and are refused in the other. The load is correct in both halves, so the refusal was the wrong answer, and the released build gets it wrong the same way. The escape now sits ahead of the count rather than behind it, so a proved edge neither needs nor spends an occurrence. The opposite repair, making it pay and refusing when there is nothing to pay with, fails thirty-two rooms, which is what settles the direction. This does not close the other order-dependent refusal the branch documents. That room's refusal moves one edge along and still refuses, so the comment saying so stays true. Also here, because it is the same file: what a component alias admitted on occurrence budget alone actually does. The graph can admit such an edge with no authenticator proving identity, and nobody had characterised it. A test pinned it while claiming one trail ends up owned by two ghosts. Measured, that is false: both of the snapshot's component fields point at the same rebuilt ghost and the rebuilt hair is in that ghost's component list, so nothing is restored wrongly. The real harm in that room is a pairing, not an aliasing, and the entity the reload built is left out of the list with its scene still set while its own sprite is transferred to the reconstruction. The displacement guard added earlier on this branch also turns out not to be entity-only: it already refuses component alias edges, measured on a sprite and a hair. The one component case it does not refuse is byte-identical, at every input the guard reads, to a room that must load, so three candidate tightenings were rejected rather than one chosen. Six assertions now pin what the room does instead of what it was thought to do.
…p with no metadata A shutdown that could not join its capture worker cleared the handle anyway, so the next start could put two threads into a graph the comment beside it says is entered by one. Draining now reports whether it actually joined, and the handle is cleared only on that answer, matching the read-ahead task beside it. No new worker starts while a survivor lives, which is not a stall: the survivor is the worker, so it either serves the next queue or finds it empty and clears its own handle. A backup archive that opens but carries no metadata was read as holding every file. A backup that failed part way leaves exactly that, since the metadata is written last inside the same archive, so closing it leaves a readable and incomplete zip that the browser lists and offers. So does any other zip a player drops in that folder. Such an archive is now refused rather than trusted. Comparing the names moved aside against the names moved back was considered and rejected: a name with no counterpart is the ordinary case of restoring a backup older than a save file created since, so that check would refuse most real restores. The argument is recorded where the swap happens. One comment corrected: the rollback's file moves can no longer throw.
…to replace Replacing a StartPos moves the previous snapshot aside, writes the new one, and on failure puts the previous one back. When there was no file moved aside, the rollback read that as proof the file at the slot was its own and deleted it. That is only true for a failure after the move aside succeeded. If the move aside is what failed, the file at the slot is the player's previous snapshot, untouched, because a failed move leaves its source alone, and the rollback deleted it. Reachable: the staging directory is under the system temp path while the slot is under Saves, routinely different volumes, so that move is a copy and a delete and fails on a full temp volume with the source intact, for files up to 384 MiB. A missing staging directory, a permission, or a lock does the same. Reproduced through the real install by making the staging directory unwritable. Worse than the lost file, the rollback then said "The previous StartPos 3 was kept." The slot kept working from memory for the rest of the session and was gone at the next launch, so the player was told the opposite of what happened and found out later. The install now records what it did instead of inferring it. Either it banked the previous file, in which case the rollback moves it back, or it claimed a slot it proved was empty, in which case the rollback deletes what it created, or neither, in which case the rollback leaves the slot alone. No existence check decides anything, because a query answering "missing" does not prove missing: an unsearchable snapshot folder reports a file that is really there as not found, and the old shape then deleted it once the condition cleared. The claim is an exclusive create, which refuses a file, a directory, a dangling link and a fifo alike. An install is one attempt now. A retry could otherwise inherit the first attempt's released claim and license its rollback to delete a snapshot that arrived in between. The message follows the record: it says the previous StartPos was kept only when it was, and otherwise says it could not be put back either, so it works until you leave the map and then has to be set again. One trade, deliberate: the slot holds a zero byte file for the length of two adjacent statements, which buys never deleting a file the install cannot prove it created.
…ment check A consultation called the displacement rule's exemption for an ownership-proved edge a category error: proving the saved child belongs in a slot says nothing about whether replacing the live occupant loses another saved object. The reasoning is right and the conclusion does not follow here, and the difference is worth writing down rather than rediscovering. Assignment writes every field of every ordinary node and every item of every array node, and every node a capture produces reaches the root through one of those containers or through a delegate call. So the restore always puts a displaced object back into the slot the document gives it, and a displacement cannot lose an object the document keeps. Retention is provable for every incumbent, which leaves the narrower proof nothing to prove. Measured rather than argued: instrumenting the rule over the whole suite finds four displacement sites, one of them with an ownership proof. Every narrowing tried either refuses a room that loads, or refuses only rooms another test already refuses, or has no reachable negative case at all. The obvious one, narrowing to the proof the alias room uses, refuses a correct load, which is what the new test holds. So the displacement rule is a third authenticity test for edges the structural tests admitted on weak evidence, and an edge carrying its own ownership proof needed neither. The two other call sites that short-circuit on the same proof are asking that same question and are consistent with it. No negative test is added, because none exists that is not a refusal of a room that should load. The new test is the second room the exemption protects and the room that kills the obvious narrowing. It asserts the document shape that makes it that room, so it cannot quietly become a different room.
…never reads A node's kind decides which container the restore reads: an ordinary object's fields, an array's items, and neither for an anchor, a persistent resource or a sound event. Reachability walked all of them. So a document could carry an object in a container its own node kind never reads, satisfy reachability, and be restored with that object built, filled and attached to nothing while the room's own slot stayed null. Four such documents were measured restoring successfully and passing verification, and a fifth turned up in review: a detour-next call binds no target and never reads the one it was given. This needs a document Capture did not write, so a player's own slot cannot reach it. Packs are shared between players, though, so a snapshot from somewhere else is ordinary for this mod rather than hypothetical, and a damaged pack reached it too. A slot the restore never reads may no longer carry a node reference. The check sits in the kind contract after the type check, so a node relabelled as an anchor still reports that first. Narrowing reachability instead was rejected: it would hide the dead edge from reachability while leaving it visible to the alias index, and a fabricated alias is the worse half, because it proves an ownership that exempts another edge from the displacement rule. Nothing Capture writes is affected, proved from the writer side and measured over 15,833 node visits across the suite, with the only two anomalies being documents tests craft deliberately. That mattered more than a refused load, because saving runs the same gate, so a false positive would cost a save rather than a retry. A field skipped by name is still not type-checked, which is right: a value that is never assigned has no slot to check it against, and only a reference in it is refused. The format does not move, because the set of real documents this makes unreadable is empty.
…s were compared Setting a StartPos parks its restart copy while the game is being played, which keeps the copy off the frame budget. In a real session that meant twenty-five minutes of play with nothing on disk while the status said the slot was set. A normal quit does flush it, verified through the exiting hook, so nothing durable was at risk, but a crash inside that window loses a slot the player was told was saved, and the status was answering a question nobody asked. Three plain facts are reported instead: whether the snapshot is on disk, whether this slot's restart copy is still outstanding, and how many are. The pacing gate is untouched and the frame cost is zero. Every scheme for copying sooner was rejected against the measurement that already exists for it: the trickle it replaces was measured turning a twenty-eight second degraded window into ninety-four. The drain budget at shutdown is five seconds and a full queue takes eighteen, which is deliberate. When it runs out the worker fails what is left immediately and each slot says so; nothing durable is lost. The pixel checkpoint cannot verify a restore and the changelog claimed it did. It samples an unpinned frame of a composite that advances every update, so two captures of a still room differ across most of their pixels. Worse, on a load frame it is circular: the restore writes the snapshot's own buffer bytes into the level buffer and the capture reads those bytes back, so it compares a value with itself. So "every restored frame is identical pixel for pixel to the frame that was on screen when the slot was set" is gone from both entries that made it. It was never measured, and the harness refuses that comparison and says so. What the runs did establish stands: twenty slots across two modded maps and eight in Ancient Engine all loaded after a full restart of the game. The harness also stops over-claiming: a stale capture could pass, two empty hashes compared equal, and an evidence filter matched none of the lines it was meant to read, so one check's only correctness evidence had always printed nothing. Refusal messages were toast only, which left three of them unassertable in a scripted run after this branch reworked their wording twice. A thirty-two entry ring records what was shown and a QA command reads it back. Recording happens where the toast is built, not written to the log, because that path can raise a toast every frame.

This PR makes StartPos and Windows backup/restore operations fail safe through validation, staged replacement, rollback, and bounded shutdown work.
WalkthroughThe release adds transactional backup and restore handling, StartPos rollback and prewarming, runtime-state caching, structured load diagnostics, deferred engine garbage collection, performance telemetry, logging controls, and playback suppression. Setup-pack and snapshot contracts move to v6 and v9. New commands, overlays, documentation, tests, and remote verification scripts expose and validate these changes. Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to The change makes restores and backups stricter, but the current implementation can still create incomplete Windows backups, delete user or recovery archives, and preserve stale or incomplete state during overlapping captures.

Source/Actions/akron-backup-actions.cs lines 350-357 must exclude paths recorded
in skipped from both initialManifest and finalManifest, so expected deletions do
not abort the backup while unexpected changes still fail. Add a test in
tests/module-settings-tests.cs lines 5198-5223 that deletes a save file during
WriteSavesArchive and verifies completion with that file listed in skippedFiles.

what changed
the released restart restore can accept a room that is wrong while still reporting success, and several Windows copy and backup paths can lose the files they claim to preserve. this cuts those cases at the contract: if Akron cannot prove that a saved object still belongs in the fresh room, or cannot place every saved reference where restore will read it, the load refuses before touching gameplay.
old saved state cannot satisfy that contract. this moves StartPos from v7 to v9 and setup packs from v4 to v6, with one current format and no migration shim. players need to set their slots again and re-export packs.
