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.
368/368 EditMode green + clean netcode Play smoke. Docs: DR-040 ->
built, session log, CLAUDE.md cross-region tag-reaudit rule.

Editor-only class swap via the existing scalar dev-RPC family (new DebugOp.SetClass): F1/F2 keybind (ClassSwitchHotkeySystem), DebugOverlay '- Class -' buttons, and DebugCommandSendSystem.SetWarrior/SetRanger/SetClass statics. Server (DebugCommandReceiveSystem) swaps class in place on the spawned player: strips+re-seeds the ClassTraits StatModifier seeds, swaps the AbilityRef Fire slot, resets the ability cooldown, and heals a LIVING player to the new max (dead players skip the heal so respawn isn't raced). Server-authoritative + prediction-correct (same buffer-mutation path as GrantUpgrade); wire type unchanged so the RpcCollection hash is unaffected.
ClassTraits gains a shared Seeds core (spawn + swap can't drift), ClassSeedCount, IsClassSeed, a DynamicBuffer AppendSeeds overload, and Reapply. +3 EditMode tests (exact-count round-trip, value-equality fold, boundary/foreign-mod preservation); 351/351 green; Warrior<->Ranger round-trip Play-validated (server+client agree).

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
did not break the handshake, bake correct (telegraph on all enemies, IsLunging
baked-disabled on the Charger, replicated to client), no runtime errors.

CoreSystemsTests (new): a breaching Husk drains + is consumed; idles at 0;
regen fires once per interval in Calm only; no regen mid-Siege; caps at Max.
CyclePhaseSystemTests: the soft-loss overrun edge ends the siege, drains the
ledger, despawns husks, withholds the goal charge, and resolves once.
StorageMathTests: DrainFraction floors per row, drops zeroed rows, clamps.
SavePersistenceTests: CoreCurrent round-trips at v4; a pre-END-1 save with no
CoreCurrent defaults to 0 (-> born full); the v3->v4 version pin updated.
TuningConfig golden pin extended with the 3 Core defaults.
See DR-034.

- TurretFireSystem: seed a Charge pool for existing tests; add soft-fail-when-dry,
consume-one-Charge-per-shot, two-turrets-share-a-finite-pool.
- FabricatorProductionSystem: ledger-fed withdraw/deposit, two machines split via the
live in-loop read, and a catch-up affordability-clamp regression pin.
See DR-033.

10 new EditMode tests (312 total, all green): HealthApplyDamage destroys a Destructible at 0 + a wounded structure survives clamped; PickWeightedNearest x5 (player-only, structure-preferred-by-weight, player-in-the-way wins, raze undefended base, no targets); persistence (StructureSave.HP round-trip + writes v3, v2 in the load floor, SaveApply.ToPending maps the wounded HP - the staging-copy bug the pre-code review caught); + the StructureAggroWeight default pin. See DR-032.

8 new EditMode tests (302 total, all green): BaseFieldSpawnSystem (target count + Base/Ore + cadence + top-up), ExpeditionFieldSystem teardown preserves the base field, ThreatDirector schedule arming, and melee harvest routing (base->ledger, expedition->personal inventory) which guards the cross-region leak the post-impl review caught. See DR-031.

+4 EditMode cases (identity/yaw-180/pitched-degenerate/normalized) for the
helper the enemy animation drive uses to derive facing from the replicated
LocalTransform.Rotation. EditMode suite 204 -> 208, all green.

Rebuild the in-game HUD on UI Toolkit (HudUi/HudSystem, Aether palette) consistent with the menu; build-palette bar (BuildPaletteState) drives cursor->cell ground-ghost preview (green/red via BuildPreviewMath), left-click place / right-click cancel / rotate; fire suppressed in build mode; combat juice restyle. +4 BuildPreviewMath EditMode tests.

Netcode frontend pattern: UITK main menu / pause / settings (MenuUi + controllers), on-demand world lifecycle (WorldLauncher/SessionRunner), GameBootstrap menu branch; Graphics/Audio settings (SettingsService/GameVolume); single-slot save foundation (SaveData/SaveService, born-correct load at director spawn, autosave on Siege->Calm + quit); RuntimePanelSettings + theme; BuildTool menu; 10 EditMode tests.

Server-only production chains (never predicted): components + server systems + pure byte-only math (ProductionMath/ConveyorMath/MachineSlotMath), authoring + 3 machine prefabs wired into the Gameplay subscene, StructureCatalog rows, BuildPlace Direction/RuntimePlacedTag, Tuning, and 35 EditMode tests (catch-up gating, conveyor shuffle-invariance, SaveData v2 round-trip).

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.
