What you are building

Primary path: recognition definitions + groups
Teach DAI to identify physical structures/targets/regions so gameplay reacts to the world rather than hidden assumptions.

Step-by-step

  1. Choose the recognition question“Is this room complete?”, “What target am I aiming at?”, “Which region am I standing in?”
  2. Use the narrowest recognition modeConnected/bounded-region/nearest-match before broad scans.
  3. Define anchor and boundsPhysical identity must survive reloads.
  4. Return a stable match IDGameplay functions should react to the recognized identity.
  5. Cache or throttle expensive scansRecognition frequency should match how quickly the answer can change.
  6. Test damaged/partial structuresA missing wall or wrong anchor should fail or enter repair state predictably.

Definition of done

  • The feature still works after save/reload.
  • Server state is authoritative; presentation mirrors it.
  • Invalid input cannot duplicate rewards or bypass costs.
  • Two players can use the system without sharing unintended temporary state.
  • Any optional resource pack can be disabled without breaking datapack logic.

Next integration

Once this feature works alone, connect it to a complete loop instead of adding more isolated content. Use the complete-game tracks to see where it belongs in ACMS, Space Between Blocks, MineTrigger or Hollow Spiral.
