Gabriel Alcantara contributed to opentibiabr/canary and mehah/otclient by building and refining gameplay features, UI systems, and backend logic over a three-month period. He enhanced player experience by implementing multi-icon monster displays, prey system improvements, and mana shield UI integration, using C++, Lua, and OTUI. Gabriel addressed stability and data integrity by capping tracker lists, ensuring quest tracking persistence, and correcting RNG bias in charm procs. His work included targeted bug fixes such as stash auto-correction and tier-aware hotkey handling, demonstrating depth in client-server logic, code refactoring, and data validation while maintaining a focus on maintainability and user experience.

October 2025 – Key outcomes across opentibiabr/canary and mehah/otclient. Focused on stability, UX, and gameplay flow improvements that drive player engagement and reduce support overhead. Key features delivered: - Prey Options System Enhancement: automatic bonus rerolls, prey locking, enhanced prey UI, confirmation dialogs, and refined prey information display (#1327). - Mana Shield UI Integration: mana shield visualization with a health bar aligned to the mana bar, ensuring correct display for mage vocations (#1320). Major bugs fixed: - Stash Auto-Correction on Failed Withdrawals: automatically restores stash count to prevent underflow, with enhanced stash logging for debugging (#3712). - Safe Hotkey Equipment Handling for Items with Same ID but Different Tiers: tier-aware hotkey flow to prevent accidental removal of equipped items (#3695). Overall impact and accomplishments: - Reduced edge-case risk in inventory and prey management; improved gameplay UX and debugging visibility through targeted logging; cross-repo collaboration delivering cohesive user-facing improvements. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - UI integration and state management, robust bug fixes with clear commit messages, cross-repo collaboration, and explicit logging enhancements.
