room ids are tied closely with slots. So, we need slot_ids to determine room_ids Slot_ids is u8. Since, slots are infinite, slot numbers will not fit in u8. Two ways to approach this : either use u32 slots or continue with u8 and let overflow happen with the slots. (this will overwrite the slot data every 10-11 days). preferable choice:

resize slot_ids from u8 to u32
