World Extension Footguns & FAQ

  • System names are limited to 16 bytes; anything beyond that will be truncated.
    • If there are multiple systems with the same registered name (due to truncation), your systems may experience divergent behavior.
  • Namespace names are limited to 14 bytes; anything beyond that will be truncated.
  • Systems should be stateless! If you need to store state, use a table in the namespace. If you do not follow this convention, adversaries may be able to exploit your system.
  • Delegation in its current form can be revoked by the delegator at any time. A future release will include credibly committed delegations that can only be revoked under specific conditions.
  • System access gives someone the ability to call any function in the system. If this is undesirable, either use proper checks in your functions or break apart your system into multiple systems.
  • If something in MUD isn't working properly, double check that your MUD version is set to 2.0.9. If not, run the following command in the root of your directory:
pnpm mud set-version --mudVersion 2.0.9 && pnpm i && pnpm build
  • If you recently changed some configuration, double check that you have run pnpm i and pnpm build in the root of your directory.
  • Namespaces in MUD worlds are unique and exclusive. You cannot register a namespace name that already exists. If you previously registered a namespace to the live Primodium world and attempt to reregister the same name, it will fail. Please be conservative with registering namespaces by using forked tests of the world until you are confident in registering to the main world.
