SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill resolves runtime gameplay issues in the CkFoundation framework where code compiles and the editor boots, but features fail to behave as expected or exhibit silent failures.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Symptom-Based Triage: A structured table to identify and diagnose common failures like discovery misses, signal binding issues, and interaction stalls.
  • Discriminating Experiments: Step-by-step diagnostic procedures to isolate timing races, handle invalidity, and replication mismatches.
  • Use Case: If a gameplay feature silently does nothing when triggered, use this playbook to verify entity composition timing, signal binding policies, and processor registration status.

Quick Start

Use the ck-game-debugging-playbook to diagnose why my gameplay feature is failing to trigger by following the triage table and running the recommended discriminating experiments.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
Why does my Unreal Engine gameplay feature silently fail to trigger without crashing?

Silent gameplay logic failures in the CkFoundation Entity Component System frequently stem from asynchronous composition timing races, deferred request processing delays, or signal binding policy mismatches. A symptom-first triage framework isolates these non-crashing runtime issues by verifying entity composition stages and processor registration status.

How do I debug interaction channel mismatches in a CkFoundation ECS gameplay feature?

Debug interaction channel mismatches in the CkFoundation ECS by running discriminating experiments defined in the triage playbook. These structured diagnostic procedures verify interaction channel configurations, handle invalidity, and signal binding policies to identify the root cause of gameplay interaction stalls.

What is the best way to diagnose asynchronous entity composition timing races in CkFoundation?

The most effective approach to diagnose asynchronous entity composition timing races involves using framework-specific debugging macros and console commands. Running systematic discriminating experiments isolates deferred request processing issues and validates lifecycle teardown patterns for accurate root-cause identification.

How to triage signal binding policy failures using CkFoundation debugging macros?

Triage signal binding policy failures by following the playbook's structured diagnostic table to verify processor registration status and signal binding configurations. Execute recommended console commands and debugging macros to isolate handle invalidity and resolve non-crashing gameplay logic failures.

Does the CkFoundation debugging playbook handle deferred request processing and replication mismatches?

Yes, the CkFoundation debugging playbook explicitly handles deferred request processing and replication mismatches. It provides step-by-step diagnostic procedures and lifecycle teardown patterns to isolate these specific runtime gameplay logic failures within the Entity Component System.

What should I do when my CkFoundation gameplay feature compiles and boots but does nothing when triggered?

When a gameplay feature compiles and boots but does nothing, use the symptom-based triage table to verify entity composition timing, signal binding policies, and processor registration status. Execute discriminating experiments to isolate silent failures and identify the exact root cause.
