Project P.I.T.T. Piñata Low-FPS Diagnostic Build
Piñata Low-FPS Diagnostic Build: Find avoidable accumulation and isolate an expensive-looking interaction without pretending to have a benchmark.
Find avoidable accumulation and isolate an expensive-looking interaction without pretending to have a benchmark. For Piñata, first decide whether this route needs an intact Piñata at a later assembly station. That is a different goal from allowing a break near the Maw, and the catch must be evaluated against the chosen goal. This is a planning pattern, not an in-game-tested optimal build.
Startup order
Preserve the layout, pause extra supply and observe whether a particular moving or colliding group correlates with the slowdown. Keep graphics settings constant for this comparison.
- Pause supply
- Locate accumulation
- Isolate interaction
- Compare same scene

| Candidate | How to evaluate |
|---|---|
| cushion | Inspect the first handoff |
| slick | Check containment or direction |
| panel | Keep control/recovery visible |

SINGLE COMMUNITY REPORT · checked 2026-09-26
Older full-release player evidence places Piñata production after the Cash Register phase.
Build relevance: Older full-release community observation; no independent 1.0.8 replay
Limit: Steam officially names the unlock and Update 1.0.7 fixes pinata issues; exact thresholds, value, mass and interval remain unfilled.

SINGLE COMMUNITY REPORT · checked 2026-09-26
An older player guide reports Piñata transport breakage and uses contained routes; 1.0.7 separately addresses Piñata and Cushion reliability.
Build relevance: Older full-release community observation; no independent 1.0.8 replay
Limit: The patch does not validate that player's numerical losses or payout comparison.

Failure mode to watch
Continuing to create stranded products obscures whether the problem is one interaction or overall inventory. Address the accumulating handoff before testing a second change. The transported Piñata breaks before it reaches the intended destination.

Validation checklist
Compare the same scene before and after the isolated change, note the displayed frame rate if available, and retain the backup. No object budget or guaranteed FPS improvement is asserted.
Watch the first damaging contact rather than counting only the final feed. Protect the receiving area and reduce uncontrolled collisions as an experiment; no breakage probability or payout advantage is verified.

Not claimed by this plan
No measured throughput, income per minute, guaranteed achievement trigger, exact timing circuit or physics coefficient is supplied. Before this layout is treated as verified, evidence must show the current build, the assembled path and repeatable input-to-output behavior.

Evidence and verification limits
DEFERRED — EVIDENCE INSUFFICIENT. This page documents what is known and what remains unresolved; it is not a verified complete solution.
Editorial planning pattern; no current-build replay of the complete layout. Public reference, noindex until the distinct build is demonstrated.
