Over seven months, Solvalou developed and refined gameplay systems for the cmss13-devs/cmss13 repository, focusing on player customization, balance, and asset integration. They engineered modular frameworks for Yautja armor, mask, and bracer customization, leveraging object-oriented programming and design patterns in DM and TypeScript to enable persistent preferences and scalable content. Solvalou addressed gameplay balance by tuning weapon mechanics and overhauling the Yautja thrall system to improve survivability and control. Their work included UI enhancements, bug fixes for attachment persistence, and integration of new graphical assets, resulting in a more robust, maintainable codebase and a richer, more reliable player experience.

March 2025 (2025-03) focused on gameplay balance refinement for the cmss13 project; delivered a targeted nerf to UBS knockback stun range for the masterkey shotgun ammo variant to improve balance and align with intended role. No major bugs fixed in this period based on provided data. The change reduces stun range from 2 tiles to 1 tile, mitigating over-stun impact and preserving strategic play.
