FrameId (replicated frame/class signal) now WRITTEN server-side at spawn for all
players; the two class-HUD readers (ClassPrepPortal, MetaShop) read FrameId (with
an AbilityRef fallback for pre-FrameId players) instead of ClassForAbility. The
gym seeds a PER-FRAME default Spark loadout via ClassTraits.FrameLoadout —
Harpooner (Ranger slot): reel/mobility/skillshots; Bathynaut (Warrior slot):
pull-in/dash/zone-control. FrameId uses ecb.AddComponent (baked on the real
player; absent on the minimal MetaSeeding test prefab). 497 EditMode green.
Deferred to a focused pass (risky wholesale refactor, "still works" via the
transition): full removal of legacy AbilityRef/AbilityCooldown/EffectiveAbility
Stats (woven through equip/class/meta/StatRecompute + tests) and the CharacterId
Bathynaut/Harpooner rename.

GymTag + GymEnemyRoster (+ GymRosterAuthoring) bake the gym singletons. New
DebugOp.SpawnEnemy (client SpawnEnemy wrapper + server receive case) spawns a
chosen enemy KIND (Drowner/Grindylow) from the baked roster near the sender —
replacing the wave-roster hack per the roadmap's Enemy-test GYM direction.
GoInGameServerSystem takes a GymTag branch: bypass the meta-catalog spawn guard
(a fresh gym has no CycleDirector) + seed a default Spark loadout on keys 1-4.

DebugInputInjectionSystem (#if UNITY_EDITOR) gains FireSocket(i, frames) + per-socket hold
frames + the OnUpdate socket-event sets, mirroring the legacy Fire injection. Drives the real
gather->command->prediction->AbilityFireSystem path per socket for headless validation.
Used to validate group-A live (instant-play ServerWorld+ClientWorld): socket 0&1 = a projectile
Spark, injected same-frame -> maxSrvProj=2, maxCliProj=2 (server==client parity),
distinctSpawnIds=2 with distinctSocketBits=2 (the SpawnId desync fix confirmed LIVE), both
per-socket cooldowns advanced. Netcode half of the group-A gate: PASS.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Per Phase1_Combat_Gym_Build_Spec §8 (the "KEEP as-is" feel layer was really a migration):
- PlayerAnimationDriveSystem: both jobs (Local/Remote) now read SocketCooldown +
DynamicBuffer<AbilitySocket>/<EffectiveSocketStats> instead of the single AbilityCooldown/
AbilityRef/EffectiveAbilityStats; shared SocketFireAndCone helper (any-socket-firing model:
IsFiring if any socketed Spark's per-socket cooldown window is mid-fire; IsCone if any such
is Cone).
- CombatFeedbackSystem: the muzzle-flash + cone-cue blocks unified into one per-socket
fire-edge loop over SocketCooldown (per-socket uint cache); non-Cone -> muzzle flash,
Cone -> the aimed slash-arc cue. Dropped the now-dead single-cooldown latches.
L1 clean; L2 494/494 (no regression).
Deferred to the AbilityRef-removal cleanup (surfaced, NOT silent): the FrameId server-writer +
the 2 class-HUD re-points (ClassPrepPortalHudSystem/MetaShopHudSystem) + HudSystem's ability
bar. Rationale: AbilityRef is still baked + set (EquipSystem/ClassSwapUtil), so ClassForAbility
remains a valid class signal through the transition; FrameId is baked ready. No feel regression.

Client-only, procedural, zero netcode — a sibling of AmbientMotionSystem,
biome-keyed + camera-following. Three cosmetic beats: fleeing critters (ground
bugs + a few birds that dart out of the flee radius = the scatter beat,
biome-tinted, recycled at the ring edge), drifting cloud-shadow discs, and
Blight-room-only double-blink directional lightning flash + delayed thunder
(dedicated flash light -> no RenderSettings fight with WorldAtmosphereSystem).
Reuses the FeedbackFx disc/scorch primitives + procedural SFX. Live knobs in
AmbientLifeConfig. 474/474 EditMode; live-verified at base (flee confirmed).

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).

All procedural, client-only, observe-only in PresentationSystemGroup, zero
netcode surface (read existing replicated state). Shared FeedbackFx decal
primitives (scorch blob + crack star meshes + transparent decal material).
ScorchDecalSystem: static RequestScorch queue -> pooled fading discs
(mirrors DynamicLightSystem), wired from the barrel boom, reusable by the
geyser. CoverDamageSystem: crack accretion keyed on BlightClutter.Remaining
(Variant 4) + proximity-gated shatter-scorch. RoomDressingSystem: persistent
arena scars on a distinct hash sub-stream, torn down with dressing. Knobs in
DecalConfig. Cover cracks use decals (not URPMaterialPropertyBaseColor) because
the Synty prop shader is not Hybrid-Per-Instance.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Operator: base flora too dense + "the waving/shader doesn't look great".
Diagnosis: EVERY Synty flora prop (both biomes) uses the Synty/Foliage
VERTEX-wind shader — the transform root-tilt sway has been double-animating
all flora since 1.5, and ground-flush carpet props (Flowers_Flat,
Grass_*_Plane) visibly lift their edges when tilted.
- AmbientMotionConfig.SwayEnabled -> false (code default + the serialized
scene value): idle motion = the authored per-vertex shader wind (tips bend,
bases planted). Knob kept for A/B; walk-through RUSTLE stays as the
reactive layer the shader can't provide.
- AmbientMotionSystem: flat carpet props excluded from the flora cache
entirely — no tilt even from rustle.
- Flower density thinned deterministically: Flowers_Flat keep 40%,
Wildflowers/Sunflowers keep 50%, center (r<13) thinned harder (x0.6) —
17/38 drifts off; play/build area reads clear, flowers become ring accents.
Console clean; sway/rustle knobs remain live-tunable in the scene.

Phase 1.5b ground bundle (operator: "the ground is very plain"):
- Ground materials rebuilt: Grass/Sand base maps at real tiling (22x/26x, was a
2x smear across 90-130u) + Synty normal maps + a generated 0.5-centered macro
noise detail texture (LINEAR import — sRGB detail mul2x darkens 2.3x) with
baked rim vignette. Meadow ground moved OFF the shared Synty asset onto
project-owned Mat_Ground_Meadow.
- WorldAtmosphereSystem: per-room-biome ground tint on the expedition quads via
MaterialPropertyBlock (Meadow green / Cavern blue / Blight purple; Arid sand
default), lerped alongside the existing fog/ambient palettes.
- RoomDressingSystem + RoomDressingConfig (new, client-only observe-only):
26 biome-flavoured cosmetic props per room, scattered inside the room's ACTUAL
shape (same RoomLayoutMath authority as the server, distinct 0xD2E55 hash
stream), deterministic from the replicated run seed, torn down with the room,
colliders stripped. 47 curated prefab refs wired in Game.unity (build-safe).
- Base: 357 curated flora props re-enabled (bushes/wildflowers/grass clumps;
buildings/pond/FX stay parked) + generated worn-dirt paths storage->warpgate
and storage->base gate.
Live-verified: dressing 26/26 inside x[981,1023] z[-11,12] y=0, 11 varieties,
0 colliders; teardown on run end; Meadow tint converged to exact target; 470

Operator feel report: the explosion radius was unreadable and the fuse
too short to react to. Two changes:
- Tuning.BarrelFuseTicks 36 -> 90 (~1.5s): long enough to READ the
danger and walk out, and better for baiting enemies onto a lit
barrel.
- WorldFeedbackSystem draws a pulsing ground DISC at exactly
Tuning.BarrelExplodeRadius under every lit fuse (keyed on the same
replicated Remaining=0-on-a-live-barrel cue as the boom split; one
shared pulsing material; removed via the existing prune path).
Verified live: disc appeared 0.07s after the pop (first fuse
snapshot), persisted to the boom at 1.54s, scale read exactly 3.25 =
the true detonation radius; 470/470 EditMode; console clean.

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.

Every enemy kind now has a unique read on the existing replicated
state (client-only, zero netcode):
- Telegraph COLOURS per EnemyTelegraph.Kind: grunt orange, charger
crimson (boss shares it - shapes already differ: cone/wedge/ring),
spitter toxic-green lane, swarmer yellow. Shapes were already
per-kind; they all rendered the same HDR red.
- Windup VOICES at the onset edge (the existing _prevWindup edge +
strike-beep distance gate): grunt low thud, charger rising roar,
spitter wet hiss, swarmer chitter - kinds read by EAR before the
telegraph ramps.
- Projectile light colour by ownership in DynamicLightSystem: owned
shots stay player-cyan, un-owned (Spitter spit) glows toxic green
(EnemyProjectileColor knob).
Verified live: 12 s combat histogram shows zones rendering with
EnemyDanger_K0 (grunt) + EnemyDanger_K1 (charger) materials keyed to
real windups (screenshot); 466/466 EditMode; console clean. Remaining
distinctness depth (per-kind anim clips, creature locomotion) rides
the parallel Blender workstream.

Art look LOCKED by the operator from the artlook_* side-by-sides:
clean dark-Synty; PixelOutline._MasterEnabled=0 shipped (feature stays
dev-toggleable via F3; other fullscreen effects remain backlog).
New AmbientMotionSystem (client-only PresentationSystemGroup, the
"world alive" anti-static beat, zero netcode):
- per-biome DRIFT particles from one world-space emitter following the
camera (meadow motes / arid wind-blown dust / cavern motes / blight
spores; palette keys on camera-X region + replicated room biome,
mirroring WorldAtmosphereSystem's switch)
- idle SWAY on the ACTIVE cosmetic flora prop roots near the camera
(LOD children follow the root; probed: none static-batched)
- walk-through RUSTLE: flora brushed by the local player
(GhostOwnerIsLocal idiom) gets a decaying energy shake
Rotations write around a cached base (lossless when toggled off);
knobs in AmbientMotionConfig (scene object, code defaults when absent).
Verified live: drift palettes exact in both regions (meadow
0.62/0.85/0.60 -> arid 0.85/0.68/0.45 on region cross), flora beside
the player rocked (0,0)->(-4.0,+5.0) deg within the rustle+sway
envelope, 466/466 EditMode, console clean. Discovery for follow-up:
the BASE biome's flora props are authored INACTIVE (84 bushes etc.) -
the base has no sway targets until some are re-enabled.

Dark-ambient, dynamic-light-first look (RoR2/Death Scourges reference),
built filter-agnostic so the pixel style composes on top:
- New DynamicLightSystem (client-only, PresentationSystemGroup): pooled
point lights follow projectile ghosts; pulsing portal light during
RoomExplore (same ExpeditionPortalPos authority as the beacon); soft
resource-node glow that fades with harvest-shrink; short impact
FLASHES fed by CombatFeedbackSystem's burst funnel (EmitColored +
SpawnVfx -> RequestFlash). Knobs in DynamicLightConfig (scene object,
code defaults when absent).
- Atmosphere darkened: WorldAtmosphereConfig/System palettes moved to
the dark set (base cool dusk, arid burnt dusk, per-room biome consts
darkened); scene fog switched Linear -> ExponentialSquared (the
system's per-region DENSITY writes were dead in Linear mode);
trilight ambient lowered; directional 1.9 -> 1.05 slightly warm.
- 6 landmark mood lights (warpgate cyan, artefact violet x2, survey
camp warm x2, cabin warm); URP additional-lights-per-object 4 -> 8
(was starving the existing Aether lights).
- Art-look gate material: Assets/Screenshots/artlook_{base,room}_
pixel{ON,OFF}.png over the lit scene.
Verified: lights live in Play (20 static at base incl. new landmarks;
pooled dynamics active in-room: node glows + impact flashes), fog/
ambient values confirmed live, 466/466 EditMode, console clean.

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

- 10 EditMode files: every bare trailing world.Dispose() now inside using(world){} (single-world) or a [TearDown]+List<World> (the multi-world reject-matrix tests in BoonApplyTests/RouteSelectSystemTests) — an assertion failure can no longer leak the World and mask the true first failure. No test logic changed.
- HudSystem: collapse the blank-line run before the class close; trim the extracted route-map clause from the READY-panel comment.
466/466 EditMode tests pass.

Extract 7 sibling PresentationSystemGroup systems (client-only, observe-only), faithfully relocating methods+fields so behavior is preserved by construction:
- HudSystem (2129->1588L): BoonModalHudSystem, RouteMapHudSystem, MetaShopHudSystem, ClassPrepPortalHudSystem — each owns its own runtime UIDocument (MenuUi.LoadPanelSettings + own sortingOrder + EnsureEventSystem), the proven EnemyMarkerSystem/OnboardingSystem pattern; no shared root, no new static bridge.
- CombatFeedbackSystem (1300->914L): RoomPortalBeaconSystem, EnemyHealthBarSystem, EnemyDangerTelegraphSystem — each owns its FX-root + mats (via FeedbackFx), self-queries enemies + self-detects its edge (health-bar LastHp; danger _prevWindup), prunes its caches each frame.
Verified: compiles clean (0 errors), 466/466 EditMode tests pass, Play world-creation clean (no ComponentSystemSorter cycle, no OnCreate exception, 0 console errors). NOTE: the final VISUAL smoke (panels appear at the right lifecycle; enemy health bars / danger telegraphs / portal beacon render; buttons live) needs a FOCUSED Play pass — the play-mode transition throttles while Unity is unfocused, so I could not drive live frames headlessly.

New FeedbackFx static (MakeClip/MakeParticleMaterial/MakeBurst/PlayClip/EmitTinted/EmitAt); the 3 *FeedbackSystem copies + AmbientAudio.MakeSting now route through it via 'using static'. MakeBurst takes the FX-root + the per-use gravity/radius/sizeTail that were the only diffs between copies; MakeClip folds in noise + decay. Behaviour-identical by construction (every particle/clip param preserved exactly).
459/459 EditMode tests pass; compiles clean. VFX are presentation-only (no EditMode coverage) -> wants a Play-mode smoke to eyeball hit/death/harvest/structure bursts.

- StructureCatalogAuthoring: WallCostOre -> WallCostBiomass (it bakes a Biomass cost; [FormerlySerializedAs] preserves the scene value).
- Harvester/Fabricator authoring: resource-id byte defaults reference ResourceId.Ore/.Charge instead of magic 2/4.
- RegionMath.RegionBoundaryX (= ExpeditionOffsetX*0.5) single-sources the region-flip X used by HudSystem + OnboardingSystem (was 500f in 3 places).
- CharacterComponent.DefaultGroundedSharpness single-sources the CC sharpness 15f (GetDefault, DashSystem, PlayerDeathStateSystem, PlayerCharacterAuthoring).
- InventorySlot [InternalBufferCapacity] references Tuning.InventoryMaxSlots.
- ConnectionMode enum -> byte-const class (project convention; removes the latent enum-in-Burst trap); field + one Seed() param become byte.
- Tuning.ChargerWindupTicks single-sources the Charger telegraph windup (EnemyBaker + TuningConfig.Defaults; was a bare 30 that could drift).
- (TicksPerSecond deliberately NOT added: no seconds->ticks conversion site exists; the tick-count fields are per-authoring designer tunables, so a const would be unreferenced.)

BLENDER (5 new/re-authored clips, all full-body, mirrored-left-arm axes
FIXED - Synty L shoulders mirror X/twist vs R, verified by axis probes):
- A_Swing_R2L / A_Swing_L2R (0.47s): horizontal slash + backhand with real
anticipation (torso wound 25 deg), 2-frame strikes, follow-through past
the target.
- A_Swing_Finisher (0.60s): overhead crash with a crouch drop into impact.
- A_Special_Slam (0.53s): two-handed ground slam - the Warrior cone finally
LOOKS like a cone attack.
- A_Fire_OneHand re-authored punchier (cock -> full-extension thrust with
torso commit -> recoil kick).
Export lesson: Blender 4.4 slotted actions - reassigning animation_data.
action does NOT bind the slot; force animation_data.action_slot before
export/render or you bake a stale pose.
CONTROLLER: MeleeSwing (one clip for everything) replaced by Swing1/2/3
keyed on new ComboStep int param (replicated MeleeCombo.Step); Fire gated
!IsCone (Ranger shot), new SpecialSlam state on IsFiring+IsCone (Warrior).
DRIVE SYSTEM: writes ComboStep from the replicated combo step and IsCone
from the replicated AbilityRef -> AbilityDatabase blob archetype (works for
remote teammates too).
SWORD: SM_Wep_Sword_01 (SciFiSpace - same pack/atlas as the soldier) as a
mesh-sub-asset child of Hand_R, grip rot (90,0,0) tuned live against the
running entity. Required RigDefinitionAuthoring boneEntityStrippingMode

Four clips authored programmatically in Blender on the PolygonSyntyCharacter
skeleton (full-body keys per pose, numeric world-space verification of the
fall: hips 0.88->0.14m) and exported per-action FBX (Key All Bones, Force
Start/End Keying, FBX Units Scale). Imported as HUMANOID - the project's
pipeline is Human rigs (CharactersAvatar isHuman=true; CLAUDE.md's 'Generic'
note was stale), so muscle-space retargeting plays these on the player AND
every monster rig with zero bone-path matching. CopyFromOther failed on the
Blender-added 'Armature' node (hierarchy mismatch) -> CreateFromThisModel;
root motion fully baked into pose (the CC owns the transform).
- A_Death_FallBack (0.90s = exactly the 54-tick corpse window): recoil ->
fall -> flat on the back -> settle. Wired as the Death state on BOTH
controllers, replacing the crouch-idle placeholder.
- A_Fire_OneHand (0.4s): new IsFiring param + Fire state on the player
controller; PlayerAnimationDriveSystem routes FireActive to it (melee owns
IsAttacking again).
- A_Dash_Lean (0.33s): new IsDashing param + Dash state; driven from the
local player's predicted DashState window (not replicated -> remotes skip).
- A_HitReact (0.27s): imported + avatar'd, wiring deferred (needs a
replicated hit-tick source; body flash covers the read today).

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

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.

SLICE A - rooms become places: ExpeditionBiome duplicated to sub-slot 1
(X+1500) - ground, 205 decor children, rim cliffs, ambience; collider ring +
3 landmark colliders duplicated in the subscene; NEW in-room cover at BOTH
slots (4 collidable rocks each: Environment-layer box colliders in the
subscene + matching Synty rock meshes in Game.unity, placed clear of the
landing point, portal spot, spawn ring and boss spawn). Half of all rooms
previously played on a literal void.
SLICE C - owned FX wired: VFXConfig gains Portal + EnemySpawn slots
(FX_Portal_Round_01 / FX_Dust_Big_01 from PolygonParticleFX); the portal
beacon prefers the authored effect (procedural pillar stays as fallback);
enemies get a spawn-emerge cue on the ghost add-edge (primed-scan guard
skips the connect flood).
SLICE D (teaching) - the two undiscoverable verbs are now taught: dash on
the Move step, class ability + attack on the Rooms step (scheme-aware
glyphs); How-to-Play Controls adds Class ability + Dash rows and fixes the
wrong RT glyph; Loop step 1 mentions class pick + prep; the stale '50
starting Ore' now interpolates Tuning.StartingOre.
456/456 EditMode.

- The center-top phase banner read the CyclePhase label ("AT BASE") inside
expedition rooms - now shows ON EXPEDITION whenever a run is past Staging.
- The location-line switch had no RoomExplore case, so "choose your boon"
stuck through the whole loot window - added the portal-steer line.
- Storage crate floated 1u: GridOrigin.y=1 is the CC capsule-CENTER plane;
CellToWorld returns it, and the crate's mesh pivot is at its base (Turret/
Wall pivots are centered, which is why structures look grounded). The
container now sits on the terrain; same grounding for the portal beacon,
whose pos.y was the capsule plane too.
- Beacon HDR 2.6/3.4 bloomed into a white egg that swallowed the prompt -
tamed to 1.2/1.55 + slimmed the pillar.
456/456 EditMode before and after; Play smoke: crate at y=0, banner correct
at Staging.

The room-exit portal was invisible in the first playtest - players loitered
out the 30s ExploreGrace timeout. Adds RegionMath.ExpeditionPortalPos as the
single client-derivable portal-position authority (HUD prompt + beacon can't
drift), a pooled breathing HDR pillar in CombatFeedbackSystem shown only
during RoomExplore, and an in-range/out-of-range two-stage prompt.
Also repairs the comment-swallowed _portalMat initialization (NRE in
OnStartRunning killed ALL combat feedback each session and auto-paused the
editor via Error Pause). 456/456 EditMode.

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.
456/456 EditMode; two adversarial reviews (pre-code 13-confirmed folded;
post-impl clean bar the RoomExplore boss-clear dead-time, fixed).

Lap-1 Fabricator affordable (StartingOre 50->90); mine prompt shows IN the room;
Return no longer false-completes on death (WasOnExpedition latch + soft timeout,
never the 1-tick Returning edge); HUD keeps room/siege/ammo cues during combat
steps; Welcome needs an explicit confirm; READY panel shows FINAL DEFENSE when
goal-full; dev Force-Each-Launch hidden from public Settings. GoalProgress.Target
4->2 (~10-20 min demo). Onboarding tests updated to the new contracts (456/456).

Boss bar reconstructs the true max client-side (Health.Max unreplicated) via
Kind==Charger + expedition-pos filter; boss slam telegraph = a full ground ring
at BossSlamRadius; IsAttacking OR's IsLunging. Player body flash on hurt (distinct
red, jitter-safe threshold). Dash toward movement input when moving else facing.
Warrior cone: muzzle-cue suppressed (cone arc is its cue). Minimal finisher-only
hit-stop (PrototypeCameraRig.Hold, behind FeelConfig flag; never Time.timeScale).

A remote/cold client added NetworkStreamInGame the instant it got a
NetworkId, before the gameplay subscene's ghost prefabs finished
streaming. The server's first ghost snapshot then hit a client that
couldn't resolve those prefabs -> "ghost ... ENTITY_NOT_FOUND" ->
forced disconnect ("nothing loads"). On loopback / fast LAN the
go-in-game handshake beats the ~0.4s entity-subscene stream. The host
never hit it (it shares the server's loaded subscene); every remote
join did -- MPPM virtual players and real networked clients alike.
GoInGameClientSystem now gates full-client go-in-game on the gameplay
subscene being loaded (HasSingleton<PlayerSpawner>); thin clients skip
the gate. Verified cross-process in a standalone build over loopback:
join ghost-prefab errors 15->0, disconnects 1->0, client stays
connected and resolves all server ghosts.
Also adds a -mhost / -mjoin <ip> command-line hook to MainMenuController
for headless co-op testing (drives WorldLauncher.StartSession, no UI).

Teaches the deep, interlocking loop — especially the inverted win condition
(you win by CLEARING EXPEDITIONS, not by surviving base sieges; DR-042/DR-043).
- OnboardingSystem: client-only observe-only PresentationSystemGroup overlay
(own UIDocument @ sortingOrder 60), soft-gated 10-beat coach-mark sequence
with a world-space ▶ pointer; never mutates sim / never destroys a ghost.
- OnboardingStepMath: pure, unit-tested step machine (snapshot + IsSatisfied +
scheme-aware prompts + pointer kinds + persisted-mask helpers).
- HowToPlayPanel: tabbed reference card (Controls / The Loop / Build / Threats /
Win-Lose), reachable from the main menu and the pause overlay.
- Per-client client-local state in GameSettings (TutorialHints + OnboardingMask
bitmask, additive) — a Join client keeps its own; a host save-wipe never
re-teaches. Settings toggle + menu "Replay Tutorial".
- Dev "Force Each Launch" toggle (GameSettings.ForceOnboardingEachLaunch):
SettingsService.Boot wipes the mask + forces hints on in-memory every launch
so the tutorial always replays fresh.
- HudSystem suppresses its own location hint while onboarding is active
(single prompt voice), via OnboardingState + [UpdateAfter(OnboardingSystem)].
Validated green: 20/20 EditMode; Play smoke confirmed overlay render, clean
U+25B6 pointer glyph, no system sort-cycle, and the force-wipe end-to-end.
Docs: DR-043 + session log; reusable lesson archived in the build-gotchas note.

Clears the three follow-ups deferred by the combat-overhaul pass (c3b53cef2) + the
DR-041 "needs its own ShaderGraph slice" note. All client-only, observe-only presentation
(PresentationSystemGroup; no sim mutation, no [GhostField], no server work).
- Item 1: EnemyHitFlashSystem flashes the ACTUAL enemy body by driving the stock
Entities-Graphics URPMaterialPropertyBaseColor override on the Rukhanka render-entity
LEG children (root has no MaterialMeshInfo) -- NO ShaderGraph edit, no new component type.
Lerp white->BodyFlashColor on a Health-decrease edge, decay back to white. Verified on
screen (the AnimatedLitShader honors the per-instance _BaseColor override).
- Item 2: per-remote-player slash-arc pool in CombatFeedbackSystem, edge-detected from the
replicated MeleeCombo on interpolated teammates (.WithDisabled<GhostOwnerIsLocal>());
BuildSlashMesh -> BuildSlashInto(mesh,...) refactor; local player keeps _slashMr.
- Item 3: once-per-windup near-impact strike beep folded into the danger-cone loop, gated
to a resolved local player.
- 9 new FeelConfig knobs (+ ResetDefaults).
390/390 EditMode, clean compile, zero Play exceptions. 3-lens adversarial review
(wf_8a998c6c-af9) -- no critical/major; fixed 4 minors: spurious beep at base origin before
the local player resolves, frozen tint if BodyFlashEnabled toggles off mid-flash, render-child
capture with no recovery, OnDestroy GO symmetry.

Implements the "what's missing" feel backlog from the combat overhaul investigation (wf_c6c87dc5-9c3). All
client-only, observe-only (PresentationSystemGroup), no sim/netcode change, rollback-safe; new FeelConfig knobs
default-stamped on play-enter.
- ENEMY HIT-FLASH (#1 missing): on the enemy Health-decrease edge, a bright body-scaled particle puff in the
previously-unused FeelConfig.HitFlashColor (via a new EmitColored helper using per-emit startColor) -- the staple
"I connected" read. (A true material body-flash needs an AnimatedLitShader emission property + Entities Graphics
MaterialProperty; the puff is the asset-free version.)
- MELEE CONNECT-vs-WHIFF: on the local swing, a client-side MeleeConeMath.InCone overlap over the cached enemy
snapshot -> immediate connect read (brightens the slash arc, hit-spark at the nearest enemy, a meaty low "thunk"
SFX, extra FOV punch) before the authoritative server spark arrives. Whiffs stay dim.
- KILL POP: a colored flash burst + rumble on enemy death (on top of the existing burst/shake/FOV).
- GAMEPAD RUMBLE: new RumbleUtil (auto-stopping pulse, gamepad-only, stops on focus-loss, reset on play-enter)
pulsed on local hit-taken / hit-dealt / kill, gated on AimPresentation.Scheme==Gamepad.
- FOOTSTEPS: edge-detect local locomotion from the position delta -> soft step SFX at a cadence while moving.
- DAMAGE-NUMBER TIERING: SpawnNumber scales font + life by hit magnitude (vs HitStopRefDamage) so heavy hits read.
390/390 EditMode, clean compile + Play (no exceptions; per-frame footstep/rumble-tick paths verified). On-screen
feel is the operator's eyes. Deferred (focused follow-ups): true material body hit-flash (ShaderGraph), co-op
remote-swing rendering, near-impact telegraph beep (clip reserved).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Operator: "the melee ability needs visual clarity, on what it does." The cleave is instant (kept — operator chose
instant + VFX), and the arc already matched the exact cone range/half-angle — but it popped whole then faded
(read as a flash) and all 3 combo steps looked byte-identical.
Client-only, observe-only (PresentationSystemGroup), no sim/netcode change, rollback-safe by construction:
- SWEEP: BuildSlashMesh takes a reveal fraction + sweep sign; UpdateSlash rebuilds the crescent each frame so the
blade wipes across the arc over the first ~60% of life, then holds + fades. Leading edge is brightest. Sweep
direction alternates per combo step -> reads as alternating strikes.
- PER-STEP RAMP: TriggerSlash takes step + comboLen; tint/brightness/life ramp per link so the chain visibly
builds to the warm-HDR finisher (steps were indistinguishable before). Facing is already snapped at the swing
edge.
Compiles clean, no runtime exceptions (per-frame 33-vert rebuild is negligible). The on-screen feel is the
operator's eyes. Deferred to a feel follow-up (they share the enemy-cache / damage-edge code path): connect-vs-
whiff flash, co-op remote-swing rendering, and enemy hit-flash. Investigation: wf_c6c87dc5-9c3 (melee lane).

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.

- DR-042 (new): canonical loop re-shape — win-driver moves from base-siege
survival to expedition clears; blind scheduled siege retired; base siege
becomes retaliation consequence. Build order A (coherence) -> B (retaliation)
-> C (legibility) -> D (Slice 4 persistent meta).
- Backlog/Path_to_Fun/Home reconciled to the expedition-driven direction;
Slice 3 + Combat Depth marked built.
- DR-036 (END-2) flagged superseded-in-part; DR-034 (END-1) repurposed (Core
is a consequence, not the win-gate); DR-037 forward-pointer to DR-042.
- CombatFeedbackSystem: fix enemy health bar (sprite-less Filled Image ignored
fillAmount -> size via anchorMax.x).

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.

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).
