Aztec Tornado worked on the ARF-SS13/coyote-frontier repository, focusing on configuration management and game development using YAML. Over two months, Aztec delivered features that tuned and relaxed creature size parameters for species such as Resomi, Rodentia, and Goblin, aligning in-game statures with prototype definitions and design intent. The technical approach centered on adjusting minimum, default, and maximum height and width values in configuration files, as well as removing restrictive size caps to support larger species. This work improved visual balance, player perception, and future tuning flexibility, demonstrating a methodical, configuration-driven process without direct bug fixes during the period.

Month 2025-10 monthly summary for ARF-SS13/coyote-frontier: Delivered a targeted capability adjustment by removing YAML size caps to enable larger creature sizes, aligning with design goals and improving gameplay fidelity. The change was implemented as a revert of prior size cap additions, restoring expected behavior (e.g., Swift can be a big rat again). This was tracked in a single commit: ee0995d483ba2884f3268bc7407d7934a2e31a6b, ensuring traceability and quick rollback if needed.

Month: 2025-09. This month focused on improving creature size balance and alignment with prototype definitions in ARF-SS13/coyote-frontier. Key feature delivered: Creature Size Parameter Tuning for Resomi, Rodentia, and Goblin, adjusting minimum, default, and maximum height and width to reflect intended statures. The changes enhance visual balance and player perception across species in the prototype configuration. Implementation was tracked via two commits: - 31233a5d77936add94df9206a557b10b44a94acf: 'Shrinks a few species who should be small anyway' - a5e6dd098942bf3f146c18c3fea4cc678b4dac6b: 'Actually, resomi were already pretty small' No major bugs were reported as fixed this month; the work prioritized balance and configuration stability. Overall, this enhances game feel and reduces future tuning friction, supporting quicker iteration cycles and better alignment with design intent.
