Ore veins: make_world.py loads the island again row by row until
Regenerating Ore Veins has filled every chunk (/cobblesurvival veins
unfilled), cave tiers sit at their biome's depths, small zones get denser
veins, showcase veins are full size. The world report checks surface
tiers against the zone grid, cave tiers within two biome cells of their
cave, and fails on unfilled chunks; the template passes (37,689 chunks).
Drops: tools/drop_audit.py checks every creature drop a recipe or brewing
needs (docs/pokemon-drops.md). Blaze rods, ghast tears, breeze rods,
shulker shells and nether stars now drop from Pokemon through species
additions (self-test drop_additions_apply). The field guide counts vanilla
mobs as absent, applies species additions and reads the veins as sources.
Cobblebase tried (loads, self-tests pass) and left out until Adrian
decides its scope. Phase 4 checklist with the open questions.

A push that started .github/workflows/ci.yml crashed the server (Adrian,
2026-10-30). The smoke test, self-tests and quick check run locally.

- Companion mod (zone/Guardians.kt): each zone's guardian stands at the
zone's sample point, appears when a player is within 96 blocks, stays
within 24 blocks, is uncatchable and half again as big. Beating it in a
battle gives every player in the battle its drops; it returns after 5
hours of game time (Adrian: fixed spots, 5 hours). State lives in the
world save; /cobblesurvival guardians lists it.
- tools/zone_spawns.py writes data/cobblesurvival/guardians/<zone>.json:
the strongest walking (or swimming) Pokemon of the zone at band top + 5,
with the drops from world/zones.json. Boss drops follow Adrian's rule:
Icy Rocks before Sunscorch, Heat Rocks before Frostpeak.
- Goat Fur and Hoglin Hide recipes make 8 per rock, so one guardian's 3
rocks pay for one full insulating set.
- Self-test guardian_appears_and_returns; hazard tests cleaned up; the
zone generator reads Cobblemon's own entries from the field guide's
hidden_spawns.

Free NeoForge 1.21.1 modpack on Cobblemon 1.8.4 built with packwiz, plus
the Kotlin companion mod (cobblesurvival) and its built-in data pack.
- Phase 0: packwiz pack with Modrinth/CurseForge cross-links, build and
export tooling, Prism instance sync, test server with smoke checks.
- Phase 1: Poke Ball shaped island (WorldGen Editor preset, seed isle-26),
Adrian's biome list, no natural ore, structures without ore or vanilla
mobs, no Nether portals, world template builder and world report.
- Phase 2: permadeath (CobbleHardcoreMon plus the companion mod's gap
fixes), Revival Charm, expensive Healing Machine, Lootr refreshing
loot, in-game self-tests on Minecraft's GameTest framework.
- Phase 3 so far: 14 zones with their own spawn pools and level bands
(tools/zone_layout.py, tools/zone_spawns.py, "zone" spawn condition),
Cold Sweat heat and cold as gates with boss-drop insulation recipes,
spawn survey and hazard self-tests in tools/quick_check.py.
