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).

The per-player class travels on GoInGameRequest.ClassId (client reads a ClassSelection
singleton); GoInGameServerSystem seeds the class at spawn via ClassTraits (AbilityRef +
permanent trait StatModifiers on a reserved ClassSourceId; CharacterStatsRef stays Default
so the DRG-asymmetry deltas ride the replicated OwnerSendType.All buffer). AbilityFireSystem
gains the aim-directed Cone archetype: cooldown predicted both worlds, server-only cone
damage to living enemies (same-tick, SourceTick-stamped, like the melee cleave). 345/345.

Foundation for Two Classes (DR-037). New ids (CharacterId.Warrior/Ranger,
AbilityId.WarriorCone, StatTarget.MeleeDamage/MeleeRange); CharacterStatsRef.Id ->
[GhostField] so the owning client folds the right class stats; MeleeComboSystem
folds per-player MeleeDamage/MeleeRange off the replicated StatModifier buffer
(HasBuffer-guarded -> identity without class seeds, so behavior-preserving).
345/345 EditMode. Slice 2 design review + locked forks logged in the session note.

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.

At GoalProgress.Charge>=Target a new server-only GoalReachedSystem arms a larger final siege (x live FinalSiegeMultiplier) and flips RunPhase=FinalDefense; CyclePhaseSystem latches a REPLICATED RunOutcome (Victory on clear / Loss on Core breach) and halts the director. RunOutcome is a [GhostField] byte on the global CycleDirector ghost (the client banner observes it); RunPhase stays server-only. ThreatDirector/CoreRestore/CoreDamage halt once decided; SiegeTimeout is off during the final siege. SaveData v5 persists the outcome so a won/lost run loads finished. GoalProgress.Target 10->4. Completes Path A's spine. See DR-036.

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.
See DR-034.

Mined Ore now has an ongoing sink: a ledger-fed Fabricator converts Ore->Charge
(1 Ore -> 3 Charge / 30t) and turrets spend Charge per shot, soft-failing (no
shot, no cooldown burn) when the shared pool runs dry.
- ResourceId.Charge=4 rides the existing [GhostField] StorageEntry ledger (no new wire).
- TurretFireSystem: single ledger resolve + atomic spend / soft-fail / partial-refund.
- Fabricator.InputFromLedger (byte, server-only) feeds input from the shared ledger,
read live in-loop so two machines split a finite pool; both modes deposit to ledger.
- HudSystem: violet Charge chip + global quiet-turret cue when siege && Charge==0.
- StorageMath.TotalOf backs the affordability read; catalog re-enables the Fabricator (4 entries).
See DR-033.

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.

Consolidate the divorced combat + economy halves into one base-local loop. BaseFieldSpawnSystem tops up RegionTag{Base} Ore nodes around the plot; harvest routes Base->shared ledger and Expedition/untagged->personal inventory for BOTH the projectile (ResourceHarvestSystem) and melee (MeleeComboSystem server-only block, writes Remaining back for VFX). Activate the reserved Schedule source in ThreatDirectorSystem so base sieges arm WITHOUT an expedition trip (the loop-closer: previously zero waves ever attacked a base-only player). Region-filter the ExpeditionFieldSystem teardown so it no longer wipes the permanent base field. HudSystem shows phase-aware loop copy. See DR-031.

byte Archetype on AbilityDefBlob (AbilityArchetype enum: Projectile/Hitscan/Cone/Aoe), authored on AbilityDefinition + baked in AbilityDatabaseAuthoring, read at dispatch in AbilityFireSystem -- NOT folded through EffectiveAbilityStats/StatRecomputeSystem (static identity, not a tunable stat; MC-4 review BURST-1). All current abilities are Projectile (0) -> zero behaviour change; the dispatch read-point is the de-risk spike for MC-6 hitscan/cone/aoe.

Melee combo (left-click / pad-West) becomes the player's primary verb; the ranged projectile is demoted to right-click / pad-left-trigger. Predicted, owner-replicated combo Step (path-dependent -> [GhostField] anchor + absolute-write idempotency, NOT derived like the dash), server-only cleave mirroring ProjectileDamageSystem (SourceTick-stamped DamageEvent + KnockbackState), dash-cancellable movement-commit, 9 live TuningConfig knobs, and swing juice scaling with the combo step. The MC-6 archetype byte is deferred (the melee is its own verb). See DR-030.

Data-driven ItemDatabase catalog + per-player replicated InventorySlot ([GhostField] OwnerSendType.All, a StatModifier twin). Harvest reroutes to the firing player's personal inventory (optional ComponentLookup<GhostOwner> in ResourceHarvestSystem; remainder/un-owned -> ledger); the G-key InventoryDepositRequest RPC moves the bag into the shared ledger the build economy spends. Catalog asset (Aether/Ore/Biomass + Stone Pickaxe) wired into the Gameplay subscene; read-only HUD inventory panel. ushort ItemId subsumes ResourceId; byte Category/Tier baked for gear-tier progression. Session-only (no SaveData bump).
Play-validated host+client: catalog baked into both worlds, the re-baked player ghost carries InventorySlot with a clean handshake, a server write replicates to the client owner, the deposit RPC round-trips, and the HUD renders catalog names. See DR-026.

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).

Delete the NetConnectionUI GameObject from Game/DevSandbox/SampleScene + ConnectionUI.cs (the UITK frontend menu owns Host/Join+IP now); repoint 4 stale doc-comments (GameBootstrap done in commit C; DebugOverlay/ConnectionConfig/EditorAutoHostSystem here) to MainMenuController/WorldLauncher; remove the Assets/_Recovery crash-recovery scenes.

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.
