E6.M1 — PvPEligibilityAndFlagState

Summary

Field	Value
Module ID	E6.M1
Epic	Epic 6 — PvP Security
Stage target	Prototype
Status	Planned (see dependency register)

Purpose

Server-enforced rules for whether player-versus-player combat is allowed: driven by E4.M4 security tiers and explicit opt-in context. Ensures PvP is never client-only toggles; eligibility is authoritative and auditable.

Responsibilities

Evaluate EligibilityRule against current zone policy and player PvP flag / consent context.
Maintain and transition PvPFlagState (or equivalent) with clear semantics for combat engine gating.
Emit PvPStateChanged (or equivalent) for UI, telemetry, and downstream systems.

Key contracts

Contract	Role
`PvPFlagState`	Current opt-in and effective PvP capability for an actor in context.
`EligibilityRule`	Policy mapping from tier + context to allow/deny.
`PvPStateChanged`	Event for subscribers (UX, analytics, combat deny reasons).

Module dependencies

E4.M4 — SecurityTierZoneFlags: SecurityTier, ZonePolicyState, ZoneEntryWarning inputs.

Dependents (by design)

E6.M2 — ConsentAndRiskUxSignals: prompts and HUD indicators.
E6.M3 — LossPenaltyAndAntiGriefRules: builds on eligibility and zone context.
Combat resolution — E5.M1 consults E6.M1 in the same pipeline before applying player-target hostility; see PvP and the combat engine.

See Epic 6 Slice 1 — Zone-based PvP flag core: high-sec blocks player combat; server-enforced eligibility; telemetry pvp_state_changed, pvp_zone_enter, pvp_zone_exit.

Risks and telemetry

PvP feeling mandatory: pair with E6.M4 reward parity and design gates from master plan.
Griefing: high-sec safe hubs; fast iteration using telemetry and E9 integrity paths when live.

Source anchors
