If designing a magazine, is there a rule for springs regarding tension or perhaps some salient advice on space for the stack/load? using roundball and typical spring stock.

Keep it clean?
That's one of the bigger things from a players perspective. If debris is allowed to get in it doesn't matter how well the magazine is designed, it's not working well after that

Golden rule for springs and mags? Yes you need them, don’t loose them or the plates or followers. IdkComment

Yah, there are engineering equations using the spring tension factor k. But if you're just tinkering start with a normal spring and start cutting it down until you get the tension and load stack you want. Keep track of the cuts because you might reach a point where there's no longer enough spring tension and that will be your no-go zone.Autocockers for life!

Looking for a 12 round capacity.
I think my spring may be too strong.
Im gonna load some rounds and see if they deform.

woohoo its a 15 round feed and works fantastic.
I was trying to get by without the green alignment sleeve but for getting the tension to lock I needed to create a line lock so thats it. the spring retainer line is Kevlar however the first version used common waxed dental floss as I wanted something that wouldnt knot. I dont suspect the kevlar will snag and knot.
