The reported fall-through was a misdiagnosis: the player never fell. The
imported Terrain_DEM had only a bounding-box simple collision proxy, so a
downward trace anywhere in the block hit the terrain at Z 819 (the mesh
bbox max) and the street sat under an invisible 8 m lid. Standing on that
box looked plausible, which is why it read as working.
- add UGigLineAssetTools (C++): force CTF_UseComplexAsSimple on a static
mesh. UE 5.8 dropped bUseComplexAsSimpleCollision and Python cannot set
the flag; the builder also saves the asset, since the flag lives there
and a map-only save silently reverts it.
- spawn (-13336, -1150, 600): inside the carved corridor (the cut is a
10.7 m half-width around the road centreline), lands on the road at 456.
- fix ResetToStart returning to the mid-air PlayerStart captured in
BeginPlay: StartLocation is now captured on the first grounded frame.
- HighResShot 1280x720 instead of "1280 720", which is a multiplier.
- add -qaselftest: scripted walk/reset/pause on a core ticker plus a
swept ground transect. Results: walk 746 cm/2 s with Z steady, reset
0 cm from spawn, pause/unpause 1/0, transect 84 samples 0 holes.
- rebase onto main, keeping the frontage materials and placement fixes.
- Tools/judge_screenshot.py: judges a screenshot against an expected-scene
description via OpenRouter multimodal image understanding, reading
OPENROUTER_API_KEY from the ignored .env. --image+--expect for one shot,
--shots to run every review shot in Screenshots/README.md. Returns a
{verdict, confidence, reason, missing} JSON.
- Documented in AGENTS.md (Visual review pre-check step) and Tools/README.md;
recorded the OpenRouter payload format gotcha in MEMORY.md.
README rewritten around the actual state (walkable DemoMap, blockout facades,
planned patches); Tools/README now lists all seventeen tools by role; build.md
gains the content pipeline table and the two enforced rules (one unit conversion,
collision decided at import). Setup gains a content-pipeline row, the toolchain
state notes the demo level exercises the engine path, release checks record the
Blender pre-check that backs traversal, PLAN points at ROADMAP/MEMORY/Screenshots,
and THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES gains rows for the hero facade and the candidate props.
Also fixed the last stale reference to Geo/scripts in MEMORY.md - a sweep found
old paths in six documents after the tool move, which the memory entry now warns
about.
Geo/tools/ is now every geographic script, with Geo/README.md documenting each
one; the Blender-side builders moved beside their outputs in Art/blender/*/ and
import their helpers from Geo/tools/osm_common.py.
That module gains to_unreal_local() and to_blender_local(): the only place in the
repository that multiplies metres by 100, so a second silent scale cannot be
introduced. block_height_report.py adds height provenance for the block — 3 of
15 buildings have no height data and render at a placeholder 6.4 m.
asset_metadata.py writes and audits <asset>.geo.json sidecars; four now exist
(hero-facade, terrain, street, blockout) and the audit recomputes each centre from
the origin, failing anything that disagrees.
- AGigLineShotActor (dev-only): walks a fixed camera list in -game mode,
captures via FScreenshotRequest, quits. Test content only.
- ue_build_review_map.py builds /Game/Test/ReviewMap from current content
(gray floor, key light, sky, MPFB character, 1 m scale cubes).
- render_screenshots.sh: build map -> run game -> collect PNGs into
gitignored Screenshots/.
- Screenshots/README.md (committed) describes each capture with approval
state; AGENTS.md gains the visual-review instructions.
common_fetch was out of material, so an OpenRouter web-search call (gpt-5.2,
openrouter:web_search) returned candidate photo pages and page_image_fetch.py
resolved each og:image and downloaded it, recording page URL and hash locally.
Four frames kept, including the clearest entrance view yet.
The frames overturn the inherited 'eight stone steps, 12 m wide': the entrance
is three portals with individual short flights. Recorded as a resolved conflict
with the photographs as evidence.
A text search had stopped surfacing new material, so commons_fetch.py gained
--category. Category:Hollywood Masonic Temple and Category:El Capitan Theater
yielded 32 more frames locally, including 4-5k px frontal façades, a 2019
street-level shot of both buildings together, the 1922 postcard, and the first
oblique evidence for the 6806-6822 retail run. 68 local images total, none
committed. A clean sidewalk-level frame of the hero entry is still absent.
Five usable sets added locally (hero daytime façades, the El Capitan Theatre
block, night premiere staging, Ovation Hollywood, and the Lee Drug neighbour) —
41 images total, none committed. Records what remains missing: a sidewalk-level
frame of the hero entry, the 6806-6822 retail run, and a night frame of 6840
itself rather than its neighbour.
commons_fetch.py now survives a throttled download instead of discarding the
rest of the batch, and takes --delay.
site-2026-11-06.blend gathers terrain, street and blockout into categorised
collections: 281 objects, ~58k triangles. A downward raycast on a 1 m grid along
both sidewalks and the designated crossing finds no holes, so nothing drops the
player on either side. Two steps are flagged: 15.8 cm at the sidewalk's outer
terrain seam and 10-13 cm ramps at the crossing flush transitions, steeper than
a real 8% ramp.
Sampling is projected through PROJ: placing points with the OSM spherical
approximation put them metres off the UTM meshes and reported 91 phantom holes.
Tools/street_mesh.py builds the corridor in the project frame from the measured
profile: carriageway -10.5..+10.5 m, kerbs 0.15 m (0.13 m as built), sidewalks
4.0 m south and 5.3 m north, all elevations sampled from the DEM. Kerbs flush at
the three signalised crossings. Crown at mid-block reproduces the cross-sections
to the centimetre.
Tools/blosm_blockout.py imports the committed extract in 3Dsimple mode and
reports per-building dimensions so a units failure is visible in the log. The
result (87 meshes) is committed as the blockout baseline: hero 25.68 x 54.88 x
14.50 m against 25.75 x 54.88 m of OSM geometry, so the import is 1:1 metres.
Two headless defects needed working around: the asset-directory check that
fires before mode is honoured, and an empty default-level table sending the
add-on down a broken relative import. Member fetching stays off so the import
does not depend on Overpass.
The lfs filter is inactive until 'git lfs install' writes filter.lfs.*, and a
matched file is then stored as a plain blob without any warning. Document that
instead of the wrong claim that git add fails, and add a guard script.
Create Game/, Art/, Geo/, Tools/, Docs/ with LFS and ignore rules, record the
workstation audit, toolchain pins, setup checklist, release checks, and
licensing policy. ROADMAP 0.1.0 environment tasks marked to match verified state.
