One directory with sixty scripts stopped being navigable, and the grouping is also the sandbox boundary:
Tools/unreal/ commandlets and the two map builders, with ue_common.py and ue_placement.py as the
shared imports (they need the engine)
Tools/blender/ builders, exporters, the FBX preset, the MPFB character pipeline, blender_screenshots
(they need the Blender Flatpak)
Tools/review/ the visual loop: render_screenshots.sh, judge_screenshot.py, hero_compare.py,
build_comparison_md.py, e2e_asset_check.py, hero_iterate.sh, visual_loop.py,
visual_targets.json
Tools/gen/ image and texture generation: the ComfyUI driver, deterministic texture writers,
reference fetching
Tools/input/ OS-level input injection
root _common.py, check-lfs.sh, addon_compat_probe.py, sibling_asset_audit.py, tests/
Every moved script now resolves the repository root as ../.. and puts the tools root plus its siblings on
sys.path, so 'import ue_common' still works from unreal/. The test suite bootstrap does the same for the five
folders. render_screenshots.sh takes the folder as a third argument to run_cmdlet, and the e2e driver,
hero_iterate.sh and the comparison generator were repointed.
51 README rows now link to their new location, the README gains a Layout section naming each folder's
sandbox, and the architecture notes and Blender README follow the moves.
Verified: 108 tests pass, prettier is clean, judge_screenshot.py and hero_compare.py run from their new
homes, and the e2e run was aborted mid-way (it had been rebuilding an empty DemoMap for 15 minutes) and is
being rerun against the new layout.
Tools/shadow_gap.py measures the vertical pixel gap between an object's lowest pixels and the
top of its shadow, as a fraction of the object's height, and calls it contact or floating. It
classifies a shadow by per-channel scaling - a shadow darkens every channel by the same
proportion, an object does not - which separates the two where an absolute delta cannot. Four
unit tests cover contact, floating, an empty box and the border median.
On the real spawn view it returns 'unknown': the crop contains two surfaces (pale wall behind,
dark road below) and one global background cannot classify both. Recorded as the next step, not
presented as working.
The spawn height is measured and cleared: tracing down from 30 m, the topmost surface under the
player is Z 366 and the capsule's feet are at 369 - 3 cm, the capsule skin. If the character
still reads as floating, the gap is between the rendered pavement and its collision surface, not
the spawn Z, and that is what to measure next.
