Initial Configuration
Recommended Procedure — Analysis Mode
Before enabling automatic optimizations in a production environment, it is strongly recommended to run the plugin in Analysis mode for 30–60 minutes with representative player load. The system will observe without intervening and generate a configuration report tailored to the server's actual load patterns.
Enable Analysis mode in observability.hopl:
# observability.hopl
analysis:
enabled: true
export-path: observations.log
report-path: analysis-report.txt
After the observation window, disable Analysis mode, restart the server, and read analysis-report.txt before adjusting thresholds in config.yml.
# observability.hopl — disable after the analysis session
analysis:
enabled: false
The report generated at plugins/auroraoptimizer/analysis-report.txt contains human-readable lag diagnostics and configuration recommendations based on the actual observed load patterns.
