M1 — two systems timed INTERPOLATED ghosts against the PREDICTED tick,
the exact hazard CLAUDE.md documents and the one that is invisible on
loopback:
- EnemyDangerTelegraphSystem timed the red danger cone off nt.ServerTick,
so over a real connection the dodge tell finished ~RTT/2 + interp
buffer EARLY. The cue lied.
- PlayerAnimationDriveSystem fed the same predicted tick to RemoteDriveJob
([WithDisabled(GhostOwnerIsLocal)] — i.e. interpolated teammates), so a
teammate's swing animation desynced from their damage.
Both now use the ZoneTelegraphSystem idiom. The LOCAL drive job keeps
ServerTick: the owning player really is predicted.
M12 — the RPC leak I reproduced live during the audit. Every receiver in
this project gates on RequireForUpdate over a scene-baked singleton; in a
scene without it the receiver never runs and the request entity is never
destroyed. Netcode's WarnAboutStaleRpcSystem Consume()s but never
destroys, and is compiled out of player builds — so these accumulated
silently, and worst in a shipped build.
New StaleRpcReaperSystem (server, OrderLast, no RequireForUpdate) destroys
any unconsumed request that outlived its receiving frame. Consumed
requests are left to their owner. Verified live: a planted unconsumed
request is gone within a few frames. Three regression tests pin both
halves of the contract.
Also: HealthApplyDamageSystem and ProjectileDamageSystem now filter
.WithAll<Simulate>(). They are ServerSimulation-only so it was not a bug,
but the audit's "all predicted systems filter Simulate" reassurance was
false until now — the rule is unconditional again.
The five undisposed Allocator.Temp ECBs the audit flagged all lived in
systems the purge deleted; none remain.
298/298 green.

The 2026-08-06 audit found the shipping scene was still the abandoned
co-op-Hades game with LANTERN combat bolted on, and that a third of the
codebase was live code for a direction abandoned on 2026-07-13. Operator
chose deletion over freezing: "everything is saved in source control if
needed. I want the project to be clean."
DELETED (~140 source files, Scripts 335->231, Tests 77->43):
- Enemy variants + boss (H3). ChargerAuthoring / SpitterAuthoring /
SwarmerAuthoring were attached to ZERO prefabs, so LungeState /
SpitterState / SwarmerTag were never baked: ~272 lines of Bursted AI
passes, BossAISystem (261 lines) and the whole MixBands escalation
curve could not match a single chunk at runtime, while 734 lines of
green tests certified them. Both shipping enemy prefabs were already
byte-identical in stats.
- Run/room lifecycle: RunDirector FSM, RunInfo/RunMap/RoomPlan/RoomTag,
route select, portal interact, ready-check, room field/teardown.
- Meta shop, prep loadout, boons (incl. KillRewardSystem and
DashTrailDamageSystem, which existed only to serve boon flags).
- Build palette + structures, shared storage, inventory/equipment
(already recorded PAUSED in CLAUDE.md).
- The HUD panels driving all of the above (HudSystem 1168 -> 610).
KEPT deliberately: BaseGridMath + BaseAnchor (8 systems use PlotCenter
for spawn rings, respawn and dynamic light), the resource ledger +
StorageMath, the save system, region/relevancy. Three of these were in
the delete set until I checked their consumers — worth remembering that
the file-level manifest was wrong about them.
Also folds in audit finding M5: PlayerClass was a second, server-only
copy of the byte FrameId already replicates. It existed for the meta
shop; with that gone, FrameId is the single frame identity.
Harvest is now single-sink (ledger). HarvestMath keeps its shape so
LANTERN's carried-vs-banked cargo split lands in one place, not two.
295/295 EditMode green, zero compile errors. Subscene re-bake and Play
validation follow in the next commit.

GymSub bakes no WaveDirector (why sandbox enemies never spawned); the
sandbox's combat target is now a TargetDummyTag'd enemy ghost all five
EnemyAISystem passes exclude (planted; knockback stamps inert), spawned
at player+3m with 400 HP by an editor-only scene-gated server system,
dying through the normal Dying path and respawning 1.5s after the corpse.
EnemyTag-reuse audited: sandbox-only by design (cleared-checks would
count it elsewhere).

Review-first netcode slice (design review wf_900e9965-8f0 -> 11 folded;
post-impl wf_5c8299f8-299 clean). A PERMANENT periodic telegraphed AoE in
Blight-biome rooms only; one new [GhostField] uint NextEruptTick.
- Geyser component + GeyserEruptSystem (server): inverted invalid-tick guard
(a baked-0 tick must NEVER erupt -> lazy-stamps born-correct instead of the
party-wiping per-tick barrage), inline both-sides gather (SourceNetworkId=-1),
reschedule = now + period (never +=), never destroyed.
- GeyserTelegraphSystem (client): absolute-tick growing warning disc +
erupt burst on the >0->=<0 crossing, latched per NextEruptTick + arm-guard
(never edge-detects the replicated field -> no phantom on 0->stamp /
relevancy re-entry). Reuses ScorchDecalSystem + DynamicLightSystem.
- Seeded in RoomFieldSystem (Blight-gated on plan.Biome, born-correct staggered
stamp from live ServerTick), GeyserFieldSpawner + authoring wired into the
Gameplay subscene. Geyser.prefab duplicated from ResourceNode (no collider).
- BuildDisc promoted to FeedbackFx (shared with the barrel fuse ring).
- 474/474 EditMode incl. the unstamped-storm regression; live no-storm end-to-end.

Phase 1.5 long-term #8, the LAST 1.5 item (design review wf_e14dd739-069:
both HIGHs + the distinct MEDs verified before the session limit ate the
duplicate verifiers; unverified leftovers reasoned-closed in the spec).
Cover = a BlightClutter ghost (Variant 4) with a baked Environment-layer
BoxCollider: the runtime ghost's collider joins BuildPhysicsWorld ->
blocks the player CC and the enemy sweep while alive, and the gap opens
the instant the entity dies. Both hit paths already break it (the
clutter chassis); 8 hits to carve.
Review folds:
- HIGH: the 07-07 anti-stuck nudge would phase enemies THROUGH cover
after ~1.5s (it exists to prevent room soft-locks). The nudge is now
COVER-AWARE: a SphereCast identifies the blocker; a live BlightClutter
ghost suppresses the phase (no soft-lock possible - the blocker is
destructible); static-geometry wedges still nudge.
- HIGH: yield==durability made tanky cover an economy faucet. Deposit
is DECOUPLED from the decrement at both hit sites: ScrapPerHit=0 =
breaks in Remaining hits, yields NOTHING; fractional POSITIVE yields
still credit >=1 (the B1 immortal-sink test pinned this - zero means
zero, positive floors to 1).
- MEDs: HitRadius 1.2 (visual core, not a shot-eating disc), NO cover
in Boss rooms (no boss depenetration backstop), scatter keep-out >=7u
from the room origin (player landing + portal), Variant=4 explicit
(the clutter block's explosive reroll cannot leak).
- Old static layer removed: 8 WorldColliders_RoomCover colliders
(subscene) + the RoomCover_Visuals root (Game.unity).
Verified live: 3 cover ghosts spawned with SOLID baked colliders;
BLOCK - NudgeUntilTick stayed 0 across 3.5s of forced zero-progress
(old code arms at 1.5s); DEPENETRATE - an enemy shoved inside a live
rock exited to 1.7u (backstop holds against ghost colliders); CARVE -
the rock died to the real sweep and the spot probed OPEN. 470/470

Phase 1.5 environmental hazard v1 (design-review wf_2cb10454-fdf: 13
findings confirmed + folded; Build Spec in the vault). ~25% of room
clutter seeds as EXPLOSIVE (Variant 3 on the existing replicated byte
- zero new GhostFields/prefabs/RPCs).
The FUSE is the review's fold - one mechanism closes both HIGHs:
- Pop sites (projectile sweep + isServer-gated melee harvest) do NOT
destroy an explosive: they zero the replicated Remaining + add a
server-only BarrelFuse (~36 ticks). The client sees Remaining=0 on a
still-alive barrel across snapshots -> unambiguous fuse cue, and
booms at despawn ONLY when cached Remaining<=0 - a teardown despawn
carries Remaining>0, so portal-advance teardowns can never fire
false booms (HIGH #1).
- HazardExplosionSystem (server, plain group, presence-gated on
BarrelFuse, never lifecycle-gated) detonates at ExplodeTick: radius
damage to LIVING enemies AND players (boss-slam player filter
verbatim; friendly fire = the bait mechanic), SourceTick stamped at
detonation = the authoring moment (HIGH #2: the authored-tick
contract dash i-frames negate against), SourceNetworkId=-1 (the
environment convention - a player id would consume Charger
whiff-punish windows). Fuse rides the RoomTag'd barrel -> teardown
cleans lit barrels free.
- Lit barrels are unhittable at both snapshot sites (no double-pop).
- Client: WorldFeedback caches Variant -> boom-vs-puff split (big
burst + light flash + boom SFX vs the old puff); DynamicLightSystem
gives Variant-3 barrels a red danger glow that STROBES once fused.
Verified: 470/470 EditMode (4 new: fused pop instead of destroy +
unhittable, both-sides damage w/ -1 source + authored tick, dead-player
+ radius filters, unelapsed-fuse inert); live smoke - seeded 3/8
explosive, real-sweep pop, CLIENT observed the fuse cue on the live
ghost, pinned bait enemy took exactly 26 (30->4), walk-out escape
confirmed; console clean.

- New Server/PlayerResolve.TryResolve single-sources the RPC
SourceConnection -> NetworkId -> conn->player map resolve (3 sites:
ClassSelectReceive, PrepPurchase, DebugCommandReceive); EntityManager
reads keep it source-gen-safe from Bursted receivers.
- ecb.Dispose() after Playback in 9 Temp-ECB systems (explicit-lifetime
hygiene).
- The TuningConfig.GetOrDefault(ref state) variant of this tail was
REVERTED: state.GetEntityQuery in OnUpdate trips the Entities
"creates a query during OnUpdate" diagnostic per system per world
(caught in Play smoke) - the SystemAPI.TryGetSingleton idiom is
already source-gen-optimal, confirming the original B4 deferral.
Verified: 466/466 EditMode green on the final tree, console clean,
Play smoke 0 errors.

B1 SEPARATION: pairwise soft-collision pass INSIDE EnemyAISystem (sole
enemy-Position writer preserved; O(n^2) fine at MaxAlive<=14). Knocked/
lunging enemies keep committed motion but still push neighbours; the boss is
never pushed; enemies yield a small personal radius around players (below
melee range per review B1-1); displacement goes through the swept move so
nothing shoves through walls. SeparationMaxSpeed = live knob.
B2 POISE: the windup-cancel lived in the knockback CONTINUE branches (grunt/
charger/spitter). Threshold on the EXISTING KnockbackState.Speed channel:
light melee (6) nudges without interrupting; the finisher (10.8) and cone
(8) stagger as before. StaggerKnockbackSpeed = live knob (default 7).
B4 BOSS LUNGE: a telegraphed gap-closer on its own cooldown when the target
sits outside slam reach (repositioning - the slam stays the damage beat).
BossState.PendingAttack (server-only byte) disambiguates the shared windup
elapse (review-confirmed: naive reuse would SLAM on a lunge elapse);
LungeState.UntilTick spans windup+travel so the existing IsLunging ghost bit
replicates the tell, and the client draws a travel wedge instead of the slam
ring while it is set.
B5 PARTY HP SCALE: boss Health x(1 + 0.75/extra LIVING expedition player) at
spawn (not RunParticipant - dead-respawned members park at base). Max is a
GhostField so the bar stays truthful.
B6 RUN-FAILED BANNER: silent wipes used to land players home with zero
explanation. Client detects the (in-run)->Staging edge with a launch-cached
Charge (NEVER Returning - a 1-tick transient that precedes the bank by a
tick) and shows EXPEDITION FAILED for 6 s.
B7 FIRE ANIM: the class ability finally moves the body - a stateless window
from replicated AbilityCooldown.NextFireTick minus derived CooldownTicks
(works for predicted local + interpolated remotes, no cached edges).
456/456 EditMode; live Play smoke: launch -> 5 kills credit the room clear
through the corpse window -> boon window opens -> corpses expire clean, no
exceptions.

Server: HealthApplyDamageSystem marks EnemyTag Dying{UntilTick} (TickUtil.
NonZero, ~54 ticks) on the lethal 0-crossing instead of instant destroy,
zeroes every live cue (replicated AttackWindup, LungeState + IsLunging bit,
KnockbackState), destroys on expiry; plain-world tests keep instant destroy
(no NetworkTime) so the suite's assertions stay meaningful.
Every consumer now ignores corpses (all confirmed entity-count/unfiltered by
the design review): EnemyAISystem all 4 passes, BossAISystem brain + summon
cap, RoomEnemyDirector room-clear + MaxAlive fit, WaveSystem cap + cleared,
CyclePhaseSystem breach wipe + DefendCleared, ThreatDirector timeout cull,
TurretFire targeting, CoreDamage drain, ProjectileDamage snapshot (corpses
are not shields), AbilityFire auto-aim candidates, debug cull + telemetry.
Wipe passes skip Dying to avoid cross-ECB double-destroys.
Client: EnemyAnimationDriveSystem finally drives the controller's IsDead
param (Health.Current<=0 is the replicated death read; corpse locomotion
zeroed); CombatFeedbackSystem moves the kill CRUNCH to the 0-crossing (the
prune-edge timing would land it ~1 s late) - the prune keeps a small
dissolve puff for corpses and the legacy full read for alive-vanish culls.

Portal-gated rooms: new RunLifecycle.RoomExplore loot window; room+nodes
persist past the last kill; PortalInteractRequest -> server-only PortalCommand
advances (client derives the portal pos). RunDirectorSystem moves teardown off
the InRoom edge, relocates the boss-branch/route-gate into the RoomExplore exit,
and advances an empty expedition immediately (incl. a boss clear).
Class-at-base via a shared ClassSwapUtil (meta-band strip + per-class
MetaTierState replay, so the base RPC and the dev SetClass can't drift);
ClassSelectRequest Staging-gated. Per-run PREP buffs (PrepPurchaseRequest,
PrepCatalog): once-per-run == the row's prep StatModifier band is present,
TotalOf-before-Withdraw atomic, stripped on Returning beside the boon band.
Health.Max promoted to [GhostField] (the one ghost-hash re-bake) so the boss +
floating enemy HP bars read it directly. Feel: melee cone connect-thunk (C3),
hit-stop throttle so a horde wipe can't stutter (C4), Spitter cornered-hold.

BossState (server-only) + BossAISystem: sole mover, seek -> telegraphed
radial slam (AttackWindup) -> phase-2 speed + swarmer summon. Excluded from
the EnemyAISystem Charger pass; knockback-immune at all 3 stamp sites;
arena-anchored spawn; scaled Health/HitRadius/AttackRange. Grunt windup now
commits in its last ~30% (whiffs out-of-range); Charger stagger roots; grunt
speed 4.2->5.2; swarmer telegraph synced. SweptMove + zone-enemy spawn-stamp
extracted to shared helpers. Zero new [GhostField].

PlayerRespawnSystem teleported a recovered player to base coords but never reset its server-only RegionTag
(every other region-mover flips RegionTag + Position together). So dying ON an expedition left you at base
still tagged Expedition: GhostRelevancy hid all base ghosts from you, base enemies ignored you, and the
expedition field/zone-director kept counting you as "still out there" (waves never stopped). No self-recovery.
- PlayerRespawnSystem: add RefRW<RegionTag> to the recovery query + set Region=Base alongside the reposition.
- Harden: drop the hard RequireForUpdate<PlayerSpawner> (a transiently-missing spawner could strand dead
players downed forever) -> TryGetSingleton with a BaseAnchor fallback, early-return only if both are absent.
- PlayerRespawnSystemTests: add RegionTag to the harness + a regression (expedition death -> respawn at base
with RegionTag reset to Base). 390/390 EditMode.
Investigation: combat-overhaul workflow wf_c6c87dc5-9c3 (death lane). Base-death case was already correct.

Player-built structures now physically block enemies (husks walked straight through walls before). Dedicated
"Structure" physics layer (slot 9) so the player passes its own walls while enemies are stopped:
- New WorldCollisionConfig.StructureMask, baked from the "Structure" layer in WorldCollisionAuthoring (mirrors
EnvironmentMask). EnemyAISystem ORs it into the movement sweep filter (CollidesWith = envMask | structMask) —
no new system, same 1-2 SphereCasts per enemy.
- Wall/Turret/Pylon prefabs get a cell-sized BoxCollider on the Structure layer (Wall's existing one relayered).
- Physics matrix: Default x Structure unchecked, so the kinematic player CC (Default) passes its own walls while
the enemy's explicit cast still hits them. Despawn frees collision for free (collider dies with the entity).
Play-verified baked filters: StructMask=512; structure colliders BelongsTo=512, CollidesWith=0xFFFFFFFE
(includes Environment for the enemy cast, EXCLUDES bit 0 so the player passes). 389/389 EditMode, no exceptions.
Server-only/static colliders -> deterministic, no client divergence. SaveData stays v5.
Phase C complete (C5-C7). A visual fun-gate (husk stops at wall, player walks through) is the operator's eyes.

Scoping/design-gated (wf_7c5a555e-136). Fixes "the base reads as inert after Phase A":
- C7b objective readout: new replicated ExpeditionObjective{[GhostField] byte State, short Remaining} on the
untagged CycleDirector ghost (cross-region safe). Sole writer ZoneEnemyDirectorSystem, written ABOVE its
early-returns (snapshot-above-early-return) so the HUD never freezes stale. Play-verified it replicates
server->client.
- C7a gate prompt + C7b HUD readout: HudSystem shows "GO TO THE EXPEDITION GATE" / "EXPEDITION IN PROGRESS - N
remaining" / "CLEARED - return to claim", below the siege/overrun overrides.
- C6a Aether upgrade button: un-gated BuildSendSystem.UpgradeAbility (was #if UNITY_EDITOR); HudSystem adds a
MenuUi.Button with live affordability tint (the only Aether sink was U-key only).
- C6c cold-start seed: CycleDirectorSpawnSystem seeds Tuning.StartingOre (50) into the ledger on a NEW game only
(born-correct, pre-Playback), killing the silent turret-before-fabricator deadlock. Play-verified seededOre=50.
- C6b Biomass sink: Wall cost Ore->Biomass (the dead currency now has a home). Play-verified WallCostRes=Biomass.
- C6d palette declutter: hide dead Pylon/Harvester/Conveyor from the build palette + trimmed their dev hotkeys
(catalog/prefabs stay baked, code-intact per DR-020).
389/389 EditMode + clean netcode Play smoke (ghost re-hash OK, no exceptions). SaveData stays v5.
C5 (walls block enemies) is the remaining Phase C item, sequenced separately.

Completes the Combat Depth slice on top of the MC-2 server spine (56cf60cce):
MC-3 impact juice (client, observe-only):
- 7 FeelConfig fields + ResetDefaults; magnitude-scaled player-dealt-hit camera
PunchFov on the enemy-Health-decrease edge (camera-only hit-stop, never timeScale).
- Spitter Kind==2 aim-LANE telegraph (BuildLaneMesh) — reads baked SpitterState
client-side, falls back to a fixed length. True freeze + material flash deferred.
Content / wiring:
- SpitterProjectilePrefabAuthoring (the SpitterProjectilePrefab singleton).
- Both directors rebuilt to a 4-entry KIND-INDEXED roster [Grunt,Charger,Spitter,
Swarmer] + mix/MaxAlive config + the SpitterProjectileConfig singleton in the subscene.
- Real rigged models: EnemySpitter (re-skinned Kaiju, ranged poker) + EnemySwarmerUndead
(Undead-Werewolf, fast/low-HP); grunt/charger keep Werewolf/ChargerMuscle. EnemySpit =
ownerless interpolated ghost (no Health, no collider).
Post-impl adversarial review fixes (wf_febdcfdb-665):
- [MED] in-band fire gate: the Spitter committed its telegraph from ANY range (fired while
advancing from far). Now commits only when sInBand || sCornered (gives CorneredRange a
real read site) — a Spitter out-of-band holds fire and repositions.
- [LOW] EnemyProjectileDamageSystem early-returns on !ServerTick.IsValid (sibling parity).
- [LOW] EnemyAuthoring bake-time guard: errors if a prefab composes both Charger+Spitter
(would match zero AI passes -> never move).
- [LOW] tests: Spitter brain fires from Expedition (kills the Base==0 region false-green);
a direct partition-exclusion test replaces the order-masked claim; added out-of-band +
cornered negative tests.
388/388 EditMode green + two Play smokes (clean boot, fire, swept-hit, region, server==
client; rigged Kaiju spitter bakes + fires with zero console errors). Accepted as-is
(documented in DR-041): global spit soft-cap, co-op punch attribution.

Adds the server-authoritative mechanics for three new enemy archetypes on top of
the Grunt/Charger base, plus the weighted wave-composition that introduces them:
- Spitter: a ranged Husk variant (SpitterState) that holds a preferred range-band
(advance/retreat/hold via EnemyAIMath.BandVelocity) and fires a telegraphed,
dodgeable EnemyProjectile. New server EnemyProjectileMoveSystem (integrate +
store LastStep) + EnemyProjectileDamageSystem (region-filtered swept hit-test
rebuilt from LastStep — DR-018 anti-tunnelling; players use HitRadius, structures
a const radius; at-most-once destroy). Concurrent-spit soft cap, soft-fail retry.
- Swarmer: marker tag + deterministic cluster spawn (1 slot = 1 pack;
EnemyAIMath.ClusterOffset), MaxAlive counts ENTITIES so a pack defers if it
won't fit.
- 4-type weighted mix: MixBands -> ZoneEnemyMath.WaveSlots/KindForSlot/
PackSizeForSlot drives both the expedition director and (fork-4a) the base siege,
with a mandatory MaxAlive cap. Legacy WaveSize/IsChargerSlot kept + parity-tested.
- Discriminator stays component-presence (no enum in Bursted systems): query-
partition guards keep each enemy moved by exactly one EnemyAISystem pass
(sole-Position-writer). EnemyTelegraph.IsCharger -> Kind byte for the client cue.
New authoring (Spitter/Swarmer/EnemyProjectile) + expanded director authorings with
tunable mix/cluster defaults. 13 new EditMode tests (mix composition + legacy parity,
band/cluster math, projectile move + cross-region + swept anti-tunnelling regressions);
full suite green before commit.
Dormant until the prefab/subscene wiring lands (next): the new systems guard on
TryGetSingleton/RequireForUpdate, so with no prefabs wired the new types stay inert.

Reactivate the dormant Expedition region as a procedural combat venue.
v1 loop: walk the gate -> fight an epoch-seeded enemy wave in the
expedition -> clear -> return -> flat Ore reward (once per epoch) ->
escalated retaliation base siege.
- New sim types: ZoneEnemyTag, ZoneEnemyDirector (+ ZoneEnemyPrefab
buffer), ZoneEnemyState, ZoneEnemyMath (grunt->charger composition
by epoch). ZoneEnemyDirectorSystem (server, Burst): drip-spawns the
wave at a deterministic ring under a MaxAlive cap while a player is
out and the base is Calm; marks ClearedThisEpoch on a real clear.
[UpdateAfter(ExpeditionFieldSystem)] only (avoids a sort cycle).
- BLOCKER 1: EnemyAISystem region-filters target selection (player +
structure snapshots gain parallel region lists; no base structures /
no Core fallback for expedition husks).
- BLOCKER 3: WaveSystem, ThreatDirectorSystem timeout cull, and
CyclePhaseSystem DefendCleared + Core-breach cull all count/cull
RegionTag{Base} husks only (the breach cull was caught region-blind
by the post-impl review: a base breach wiped the live expedition
wave and spuriously paid the reward).
- BLOCKER 4: reward de-duped via CycleRuntime.LastRewardedEpoch +
ClearedThisEpoch; ExpeditionGateSystem deposits RewardOre once/epoch.
- ExpeditionFieldSystem teardown also culls zone enemies + region-
guards the clutter loop. Subscene wired with the director + roster.

Four playtest do-now wins:
- Enemy health bars: pooled world-space Canvas, on-damage-sticky + fade,
always-on <25% HP (CombatFeedbackSystem; no new replication).
- Telegraph fix: new baked client-safe EnemyTelegraph sizes the danger-cone ramp
per enemy (0->1 ending at impact, fixes the Charger plateau); windup 18->22;
a windup scale-pulse.
- Build-mode toggle: BuildPaletteState.PaletteOpen hides the palette by default,
Tab / gamepad-Y toggles, with a discovery chip (HudSystem/BuildSendSystem).
- Charger committed-lunge tell: [GhostEnabledBit] IsLunging derived once/tick from
LungeState (the Dead idiom); the danger cone persists through the lunge.
345/345 EditMode (+3 IsLunging derive tests); Play-validated: ghost-hash change

Adds CoreIntegrity{[GhostField] Current,Max,OverrunTick} on the GLOBAL
CycleDirector ghost (no new ghost/relevancy). CoreDamageSystem (server,
after EnemyAISystem): a Husk within ~3u of PlotCenter drains + is consumed;
CoreRestoreSystem regenerates only in Calm. The SOFT-loss edge lives inside
CyclePhaseSystem (sole Phase writer): Current<=0 in Siege flips to Calm with
NO goal reward, StorageMath.DrainFraction drains the shared ledger, all Husks
despawn, and OverrunTick is stamped (a transient HUD-flash pulse, not a
latching outcome - the Victory latch is END-2's). EnemyAISystem treats the
Core as a FALLBACK target so an undefended base is overrun instead of idling.
SaveData -> v4 persists CoreCurrent (0 -> born full, the EB-1 HP sentinel);
3 live TuningConfig knobs + a red HUD Core bar. Soft-loss + targeting +
breach-resolution forks operator-locked.

Structures (Turret/Wall/Pylon) reuse the combat spine: authoring bakes Health(GhostField)+DamageEvent buffer+a Destructible tag (no HitRadius -> no friendly projectile fire; no EffectiveCharacterStats -> clamp-to-0). HealthApplyDamageSystem destroys a Destructible at 0 (occupancy auto-frees). EnemyAISystem fortress-targets the weighted-nearest of players+structures via the shared EnemyAIMath.PickWeightedNearest (StructureAggroWeight TuningConfig knob, <1 prefers structures, squared factor; snapshot above the early-return so an undefended base is razed). Persistence v3: per-structure HP threaded through 5 sites (SaveData/PendingStructure/scan-guarded/BaseRestore same-ECB born-correct/WorldLauncher via SaveApply.ToPending); SaveService floor-gate [2,3] loads old saves. Loss feedback: proximity-gated StructureFeedbackSystem; CombatFeedbackSystem suppressed for structures. Pre-code review caught the DamageEvent-buffer crash blocker + 8 majors; post-code review clean. See DR-032.

Extends the DR-022 player pipeline to Husk enemies. A Husk is an ownerless
interpolated ghost = structurally a remote player, so the new client-only
EnemyAnimationDriveSystem mirrors PlayerAnimationDriveSystem's remote path:
velocity from LocalTransform-delta (prevPos cache, pruned every frame), facing
from LocalTransform.Rotation (AnimParamMath.PlanarForward), maxSpeed from baked
EnemyStats, IsAttacking from the already-replicated AttackWindup telegraph. No
new [GhostField], no server/asmdef/ghost-hash change.
Monster-mash roster: Werewolf (Grunt), Werewolf-Undead (Swarmer), Kaiju (Brute),
built by the reusable, GUID-preserving EnemyRigTools editor tool (materials +
AC_EnemyTopDown + EnemyAttackWindup clip + 3 rigged prefabs). WaveSystem now
preserves the baked variant Scale (was reset to 1 by LocalTransform.FromPosition).
See DR-023. EditMode 208/208; validated in Play (rigs skin, scales replicate,
locomotion + attack telegraph drive correctly).

Add BefourStudios SciFi environment packs, Gabriel Aguiar VFX, and the
ShaderCrew Toon Shader embedded packages, plus combat/enemy/wave/death
gameplay systems and supporting vault docs/screenshots.
Rename 11 vendor textures from uppercase .PNG/.HDR to lowercase so the
case-sensitive Git LFS filters (*.png/*.hdr) match on case-sensitive
filesystems (Linux CI, case-sensitive macOS), not just locally where
core.ignorecase=true masks the gap. Each .meta moved with its asset so
GUID references are preserved. All ~1000 binaries tracked via LFS.
