Core_LLM_Request_Queue

Concurrent LLM Request Queue

RimSynapse-Core powers the entire suite of RimSynapse mods through a highly optimized, asynchronous LLM Request Queue.

Asynchronous Concurrency

RimWorld is a single-threaded game. To prevent LLM API calls from freezing the game, RimSynapse-Core utilizes a robust asynchronous request queue.

• Worker Loop: A background thread continuously monitors a priority queue of incoming LLM requests (from Faction generation, backstories, opportunistic tasks, etc.).
• Parallel Dispatch: The queue dispatches LLM HTTP requests asynchronously to the ThreadPool.
• User-Defined Scaling: Users can configure the Max Concurrent Requests in the mod settings, allowing powerful local models (via LM Studio or Ollama) or remote APIs to process multiple LLM tasks simultaneously without bottlenecking.

Priority Tiering & Dynamic Scoring

The queue uses a strict Priority system to ensure critical gameplay elements are generated before background flavor text:

1. Tier 1 (Highest): Real-time interactions, chat responses.
2. Tier 2: Important immediate events.
3. Tier 3: Faction leader generation, major backstories.
4. Tier 4-5 (Lowest): Opportunistic background tasks, profile evaluations.

Dynamic Scoring Formula

To prevent queue starvation (where a massive influx of low-priority tasks prevents anything from happening), the queue calculates a Dynamic Score for every task: Score = (Priority * 100,000) + CappedAgeInTicks - TokenPenalty

This ensures that a very old, very short background task can eventually out-prioritize a newer, massive request, keeping the AI workflow smooth and responsive.
