[ INTERNAL MEMORANDUM // SECTOR R-77 ENGINEERING DEPT ]

SUBJECT: Technical Specification for the Uplink Interface Port (r-77.vport) ENCRYPTION: HIGH-LEVEL [VOID-PROTOCOL] URL: uplink.voidline.gg

1. SYSTEM OVERVIEW

The Uplink serves as the primary visualization bridge for Sector R-77. In its raw state, the visual data surrounding the singularity—known as Lensing—is a chaotic, relativistic mess of photon spheres and frame-dragging noise.

The Uplink port acts as a High-Bandwidth Interpretive Layer. It captures the raw Lensing data, stabilizes the gravitational distortion, and renders it into a human-readable stream. When a citizen “jacks into” the Uplink, they aren’t just watching a screen; they are establishing a direct data-conduit to the sector’s optical sensors.

2. THE TECHNICAL STACK

The architecture is designed for “On-Demand” node orchestration. To keep operational costs low and minimize “Ghost-in-the-Shell” data leakage, the server instances are spun up only when a request is initiated through the uplink.voidline.gg gateway.

• Primary Protocol: LiveKit-based Real-Time Transport.
• Source Data: .lense (Raw Gravitational Photon Capture).
• Output Extension: .vport (Viewport).
• Latency Compensation: The system uses a proprietary algorithm to account for gravitational time dilation.

Relativistic Formula for Signal Delay: The Uplink automatically syncs local time dilation with the user’s orbital distance to ensure real-time stream stability.

3. OPERATIONAL MODES

A. STABILIZED VIEWPORT (uplink.voidline.gg)

• Usage: Standard screen sharing and private streaming.
• UX: Clean, high-fidelity, 60fps.
• Visuals: Overlaid with system telemetry, bitrates, and sector coordinates.

B. RAW LENSING (UNENCODED)

• Usage: Diagnostics only.
• Appearance: Visual “shredding.” The screen appears to fold in on itself as photons are pulled toward the singularity.
• Warning: Prolonged exposure to unencoded Lensing data is known to cause optical migraines and “Void-Sickness.”

4. ENGINEER’S NOTES & MAINTENANCE

• Node Stability: Ensure that the server wind-down occurs exactly 120 seconds after the last “Citizen” disconnects. We don’t have the credits to keep the VM running 24/7 while the sector sleeps.
• Interface: The uplink subdomain is the most exposed part of our stack. Keep the .sys logs clean. If the uplink starts “bleeding” into the .vox (Signal) channel, we’ve got a serious signal-cross in the hardware racks.
