+
+Dark-ambient dynamic-light-first look (roadmap 1.5 #3), built filter-agnostic:
+- **`DynamicLightSystem`** (client presentation, pooled/pruned Entity-key pattern): projectile follow-lights ·
+  pulsing portal light @RoomExplore (ExpeditionPortalPos authority) · resource-node glow (fades with the
+  harvest-shrink scale) · impact flashes fed by CombatFeedbackSystem's TWO burst funnels (`EmitColored` carries
+  pos+count+color for every procedural hit; `SpawnVfx` covers authored VFX) via a static `RequestFlash` queue
+  (same-thread, reset via `[RuntimeInitializeOnLoadMethod]`). Knobs: `DynamicLightConfig` (scene object).
+- **Atmosphere darkened** (WorldAtmosphereConfig scene values + code fallbacks + per-biome consts in sync):
+  base cool-dusk (fog 0.09/0.13/0.14 den 0.010, amb sky 0.32/0.38/0.48), arid burnt-dusk (den 0.016),
+  Meadow/Cavern/Blight room palettes darkened. **Found+fixed: scene fog was LINEAR mode — the system's
+  per-region fogDensity writes were DEAD** (density only applies to exponential modes) → ExponentialSquared.
+  Trilight equator/ground lowered; directional 1.9 → 1.05 slightly warm.
+- **6 landmark mood lights** (warpgate/artefact×2/survey×2/cabin) joining the 13 existing Aether lights;
+  **URP `maxAdditionalLightsCount` is the PER-OBJECT limit — was 4, now 8** (the classic-Forward ceiling;
+  it was starving the placed lights).
+- Gotchas hit: bare `Time.time` in a `SystemBase` binds to the deprecated `ComponentSystemBase.Time`
+  (qualify `UnityEngine.Time`); an `apply_text_edits` span-end short of the real line end leaves comment-tail
+  residue (compile error caught it).
+- Verified: 20 static lights at base (exact expected count), pooled dynamics live in-room (node glows +
+  impact flashes observed), fog/ambient values confirmed live in Play, 466/466, console clean.
+- **Art-look gate material committed:** `Assets/Screenshots/artlook_{base,room}_pixel{ON,OFF}.png`.

 ## Next-session intent

-Phase 1.5 continues: lighting/atmosphere pass → art-look decision gate (pixel filter ON/OFF side-by-sides).
-Operator: eyeball the refit walls + cover + the 85 new prop colliders in a real lap — special attention to the
-solid CRATERS (set-piece blocks vs walkable rim-gap follow-up) — plus the still-pending B5 split-panels smoke.
+**OPERATOR GATE: lock the art look** from the artlook_* side-by-sides (pixel-art-3D vs clean dark-Synty vs
+keep-both-toggle) — every later visual choice hangs off this. Then Phase 1.5 continues: ambient-motion layer →
+breakable clutter → attack distinctness. Feel-lap items still pending operator eyes: refit walls/cover/85 prop
+colliders + solid craters call + atmosphere value taste (arid rooms read bright-tan — all knobs live) + the B5
+split-panels smoke.
