Demo Data layer
Demo recipe data can now be tracked as pre-release evidence, but it must stay separate from full-release records. Do not copy a bulk third-party list without checking row quality; use the demo layer to preserve version, evidence, and verification status for each recipe.
| Field | Player use | Current state |
|---|---|---|
| Recipe | The recipe name or player-facing output being searched. | Demo/pre-release evidence can be recorded |
| Output | What the station produces. | Demo/pre-release evidence can be recorded |
| Ingredients | What the player must bring. | Demo/pre-release evidence can be recorded |
| Station | Where the recipe is crafted. | Demo/pre-release evidence can be recorded |
| Time | Crafting duration, if exposed. | Demo/pre-release evidence can be recorded |
| Energy | Energy cost, if exposed. | Demo/pre-release evidence can be recorded |
| Requirement | Unlock, research, workstation, or technology requirement. | Demo/pre-release evidence can be recorded |
| Evidence | Source used for the row. | Required |
| Version | Demo, full release, or later patch. | Demo first; full-release verification pending |
| Last checked | Date the row was last reviewed. | 2026-09-21 for demo-data contract |
Full-release verification
| Field | Use | Current state |
|---|---|---|
| Demo row | Lets players search current recipe evidence before launch. | Allowed with Demo version label |
| Full-release row | Confirms whether the demo recipe still exists after launch. | full-release verification pending |
| Changed row | Captures any recipe that changed from demo to release. | Verify after launch |
| Source | Official, live-game, or public evidence used for the row. | Required |
| Last checked | Date the row was last reviewed. | Required |
Source boundary
Demo recipe values must be labeled as Demo Data and should not be presented as final full-release values. Exact item values, coordinates, building costs, quest objectives, recipe yields, and achievement conditions should be updated only when official, live-game, or public post-release evidence can be checked. This keeps the sequel database separate from original Graveyard Keeper data.
