Winter

Winter was built as a full environment-conversion event. Instead of only adding visual effects, it changes the map state, introduces snow and skybox changes, modifies player traversal with server-side skating behavior, runs a reward phase, then transitions into meteor impacts and a full thaw sequence.

• -Snow reveal and full winter atmosphere takeover
• -Frozen terrain and skating-focused movement phase
• -Timed collectible drop gameplay during the active event
• -Heat, meteor impacts, and final thaw transition to close the event

• -Uses voxel terrain reads and writes to freeze and restore water regions
• -Manages snow systems, skybox state, barriers, and teleports during the event
• -Includes a custom server-side skating loop that adjusts player horizontal movement
• -Spawns and relocates reward drops across different event phases
• -Supports full runtime snapshots for event state, drops, terrain progress, and gameplay state
• -Restores terrain, barriers, character state, snow state, and active systems during cleanup
• -Handles early end cases with defensive restoration logic

• -One of the strongest technical proof pieces in the entire event set
• -Demonstrates environment mutation, custom movement systems, and reliable cleanup
• -Strong evidence of solving real game-state complexity, not just scripted visuals
