+## Python and shell tooling
+
+Every committed asset and every measured claim in this repository is produced by a script. Tools live in `Tools/` (Unreal, network, repository), `Geo/tools/` (projection, OSM/DEM parsing, metadata) and `Art/blender/*/` (Blender-side builders, next to their output).
+
+**Fix the tool, not the artefact.** If an asset is corrected by hand, script the correction (or regenerate it) in the same change. A second manual fix of the same kind means the tool is missing a step.
+
+**Improve over fork.** Extend the existing tool rather than adding a near-duplicate. When two or three scripts start sharing logic, factor the shared part into `Tools/_common.py`, `Geo/tools/osm_common.py` or `Art/blender/common.py`; keep the single metres→centimetres conversion where it already lives.
+
+Rules that keep tools reusable and reviewable:
+
+- **One script, one job.** Every input is an argument; no interactive prompts; deterministic output paths.
+- **Fail loudly.** A tool that cannot do its job exits non-zero with a message. Never leave a partially written asset and a success code.
+- **Result files for Unreal.** Unreal commandlets swallow `print()`; write the outcome to `/tmp/gigline/<tool>.txt` and read that instead of trusting the exit code alone.
+- **Absolute paths into sandboxes.** Blender Flatpak (`LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$B/blender/lib"`) and Unreal do not share the repo's working directory; pass absolute paths.
+- **Clean worktree for generators.** Tools that rewrite committed assets (site/street/hero builders, importers, map builders) run from a clean worktree; inspect the LFS diff before committing. Note that `.blend` and `.umap` check out read-only — `chmod u+w` first or the save silently fails.
+- **Network and paid-API tools are human-triggered.** `Tools/commons_fetch.py`, `Tools/page_image_fetch.py`, `Tools/judge_screenshot.py` (OpenRouter) and anything similar never sit in a gate or CI. Handle HTTP 429 with back-off rather than retrying immediately.
+- **Measure, don't assert.** Verification tools print the sampled numbers — counts, holes, Z ranges, worst step and its location, frame-time percentiles — so a claim in `TODO.md`, `CHANGELOG.md` or `Docs/` can be re-checked by re-running the command.
+
+**Document every tool.** A new or changed tool gets a row in the inventory table of the README beside it: [`Tools/README.md`](Tools/README.md), [`Geo/README.md`](Geo/README.md), or [`Art/blender/README.md`](Art/blender/README.md). What it does, its arguments, and a typical command. A tool without a README row is unfinished.
+
+**Test the pure parts.** `Tools/tests/` holds stdlib `unittest` tests (no Blender or Unreal process; they must not start a game or editor). Extract the testable core — argument parsing, geometry maths, licence gating, report formatting — into functions that a test can call directly.
+
+```bash
+python3 -m unittest discover -s Tools/tests -t Tools -p 'test_*.py'
+```
+
+Keep the tools standard-library-only where practical; if a third-party import is genuinely needed, add it to `requirements-tools.txt` with a version floor and mention it in the tool's README row.
+
+## Architecture documentation
+
+[`Docs/Architecture/`](Docs/Architecture/) is the arc42 documentation: twelve numbered section files, `about-arc42.md`, and the combined [`architecture.md`](Docs/Architecture/architecture.md). **Markdown is canonical** — the `.adoc` sources were removed on 2026-11-08.
+
+Keep it current **in the same change as the implementation**, not in a later documentation pass. When work alters any of the following, edit the matching section:
+
+| Change | Section |
+| --- | --- |
+| A new or restructured module, tool, data source or external interface | `05_building_block_view.md` |
+| A runtime flow, tick/order dependency, or lifecycle (possession, map load, QA self-test) | `06_runtime_view.md` |
+| Packaging, engine pin, checkout/build/launch procedure | `07_deployment_view.md` |
+| A pattern, convention or cross-cutting rule (units, collision policy, provenance) | `08_concepts.md` |
+| A decision that constrains future work | new ADR in `09_architecture_decisions.md` |
+| A quality goal or a measured budget (frame time, traversal coverage) | `10_quality_requirements.md` |
+| A known risk or a risk that retired | `11_technical_risks.md` |
+| A new term, tool or abbreviation | `12_glossary.md` |
+
+Rules:
+
+- **Describe what exists.** No aspirational architecture: anything planned belongs in `ROADMAP.md` and `TODO.md`. Every structural claim names the file, script or flag that implements it.
+- **ADRs are append-only.** Never rewrite an accepted decision; supersede it with a new ADR that says what it replaces and why.
+- **Keep the combined document in sync.** `architecture.md` mirrors the section files; when a section changes, update the combined document too.
+- **Images** live in `Docs/Architecture/images/` and are referenced, not duplicated.
+- **Verify:** all Markdown must pass `prettier --check` (config in `.prettierrc`), and a command you quote must still run.

+At `--sample 0.25` the same routes measure 11.6 cm / 8.0 cm / 3.4 cm. The pre-check now prints the grade and the **location** of the worst step, and its coverage no longer shrinks with `--sample`.
 
 No holes anywhere, so nothing drops the player on either side. The two flagged steps:
 
-- **15.8 cm at s≈207**, where a sample crosses from `Terrain_DEM` onto `Sidewalk_South` — that is the sidewalk's outer edge, the 0.15 m kerb height minus the terrain. Mostly hidden by buildings, but it is a real edge and it will be visible anywhere a building is missing.
-- **10–13 cm steps at s≈33, 39 and 126**, inside the sidewalk mesh: the kerb-flush transition at the crossings. That is a ~10 % ramp over 1.5 m, steeper than a real crossing ramp (8 % max). Worth grading properly when the crossings are detailed.
+- ~~15.8 cm at s≈207, the sidewalk's outer edge~~ — **fixed in `0.1.1`**: the sidewalk upstand now tapers to zero at the building side, so the outer edge is flush with the terrain (north route 15.1 → 6.9 cm).
+- ~~10–13 cm steps at the crossings, ~10 % ramp over 1.5 m~~ — **fixed in `0.1.1`**: the ramp run is now derived from a target grade (`--max-ramp-grade`, default 8 %), giving 1.63 m instead of the fixed 1.5 m (8.7 %). Measured at 0.25 m sampling the crossing now steps 3.4 cm (~1.4 % of the route) at the kerb line.
+
+**Remaining finding (not a crossing, not the outer edge):** the south route still measures a **13.4 cm step at s≈198 m** (11.6 cm at 0.25 m sampling) and the north route 8.0 cm at s≈251 m. Neither is at a crossing and neither is the outer lip, so this is a local discontinuity in the sidewalk strip — most likely the DEM sampling or a centreline vertex near the block ends. Tracked under the `0.1.1` "audit any collision gaps" item rather than left undocumented.
 
 This is a pre-check, not the `0.1.0` release check: the release check is traversal in the engine.

 Widths agree to a few centimetres; depths differ by up to 0.4 m because Blosm assembles **multipolygon relations**, not the raw way I measured. Placement after the frame correction agrees with the UTM control points to 0.1–0.5 m per building — the residual is relation assembly and Blosm's edge straightening, not projection.
 
-Buildings **without** a `height` tag get levels × 3.2 m, which is a placeholder, not evidence. Every such height is a modelling decision to be replaced from the reference photography.
+Buildings **without** a `height` tag get levels × **3.1 m**. The storey height was 3.2 m until 2026-11-09, when a cross-check of every block building against Mapbox's building data (`Geo/tools/mapbox_buildings.py`) showed our figure running 0.6 m high per six levels — i.e. 3.1 m per level — and that calibration was adopted. The few buildings where Mapbox disagreed with a pure `levels × 3.1 m` fallback carry an explicit override in `Geo/tools/block_height_report.py::HEIGHT_OVERRIDES`.
+
+Blosm adds roof mass on top of `levels × levelHeight`: the two `levels`-derived frontage buildings both land ~1.9 m above their table height (6922 39.1 m against 37.2 m, El Capitan Theatre 20.5 m against 18.6 m). That offset is the roof, not a height error — the table records the tagged height, the mesh records the storey plus its roof.

+
+Building façades. The block goes from flat extruded boxes with flat colours to coursed, textured surfaces assembled from a reusable module kit, and the El Capitan Theatre gets the marquee and blade sign that make it read as itself.
+
+### Added
+
+- **Façade module kit** at the measured **4.96 m bay** / **3.10 m storey**: pilaster, sill, lintel, window bay, shopfront bay, door bay, cornice, parapet and coping — 16 `SM_` meshes, each validated for manifold topology (12 tris each) and assembled onto **eight buildings, 625 pieces**, from each building's own world bounds.
+- **Generated surface textures** — deterministic stdlib PNGs for ashlar stone, stucco, asphalt and concrete (base colour + roughness), sampled world-aligned with per-material tiling; byte-identical on re-run.
+- **Materials**: masonry coursing and roughness variation in the material graphs; `M_FacadeStoneShadow`, `M_FacadeGlass` (specular 0.62 ≈ IOR 1.5) and `M_FacadeBanner`. Material assignment is now **per slot**, keyed on the imported slot material, instead of slot 0 only.
+- **El Capitan Theatre trim**: projecting marquee (12.0 × 2.60 m canopy at a 4.60 m soffit), illuminated fascia, recessed soffit, and a vertical blade sign (1.30 × 5.20 m) with frame and wall bracket.
+- **Visual review loop** (`Tools/visual_loop.py` + `visual_targets.json`): verifies every capture against an expectation (missing, blank, tone-less or wrong-size shots fail) and measures each render against its reference photograph, emitting feedback that names the discipline to consult. Iterations are written under `Art/reference/iterations/`, which is gitignored until a shot is confirmed.
+- **`Tools/fbx_export_preset.py`** — one export preset replacing six copies, and it exports smoothing groups (`FACE`), so round geometry is no longer faceted.
+- **`Tools/ue_common.py`** — clears the read-only bit an LFS `.umap` checks out with and makes a refused save loud.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Elevation cameras** are levelled (pitch 0, so verticals stay parallel) and use a 42–55° lens to fill the frame from across the street.
+- **`Screenshots/` holds demo-map captures only**; the review staging map is no longer rendered for review. Each shot carries its expected content and an approval state.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Blockout frame**: the `0.1.2` regeneration had run without `--origin`, shifting the whole frontage ≈119 m in X and 2.4 m in Y and dropping the hero out of the 6902/6838 gap. Regenerated with the affine fit (residual 0.0 cm) and every span re-verified against the block verification notes.
+- **Kit placed ~12 km from its buildings** — it used the mesh-local bounding box, which excludes the actor offset.
+- **Marquee mirrored across the boulevard** (Blender +Y is Unreal −Y) and **hanging 5 cm above the pavement** (absolute Z instead of pavement-relative).
+- **Window bays invisible** inside the solid wall; the surround now projects with glazing inset.
+- **Glazing was not glass**: kit pieces kept the grey material the FBX import creates.
+- **Hero windows floated 1.44 m in front of the wall**; parapet medallions were flat discs on the coping.
+- **Imports could report success while saving nothing** (read-only LFS map), and the north-buildings import failed silently on a missing `import sys`.
+
+### Verified
+
+- Packaged build `-qaselftest`: walk 761 cm, reset, pause/unpause, seam transect 1456 samples / 0 holes, wall probe 0/35, façade occlusion probe 0/9 — all PASS. Run twice; the harness is time-based and one loaded run reported a false failure.
+- All eight buildings probed against the verified world spans.
+- 67 tool tests pass.
+
+### Known limitations
+
+- Kit pieces are boxes; cornice dentil spacing, abacus and plinth dimensions are recorded assumptions.
+- Textures are generated, not authored: no decals, signage text or weathering maps.
+- The vision pre-check remains advisory — it is unreliable on this content.
+- Retail neighbours, hero fluting and the blockout cleaning pass move to `0.1.5`.
+- Performance has not been re-measured since `0.1.0`; 625 kit actors are unmeasured.
+
+## [0.1.3] — 2026-11-09
+
+Packaging and setup fixes. No gameplay or visual scope; this patch makes the pipeline and its documentation tell the truth about what `0.1.x` taught.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Map imports could report success while saving nothing.** `.umap` files are LFS-tracked and check out read-only, so `save_map()` returned `False` with no error and the staged actor vanished on the next load. New `Tools/ue_common.py` (`make_writable`, `require_saved`) clears the read-only bit and makes the failure loud; `ue_hero_facade_import.py` and `ue_import_north_buildings.py` now use it. Verified from a forced `0o444` map: chmod logged, `save_map: True`, exit 0.
+
+### Changed
+
+- `Docs/build.md`: content-pipeline table now lists every step as it exists (seven site FBXs, frontage, north buildings, hero, map) and the shared FBX preset; packaging archive corrected to `Builds/GigLineQA`; the packaged log location and `-qaselftest` usage are documented; new **traps** table covers the read-only save, the hero `--out`-is-the-FBX mistake, the MPFB add-on path, the shot actor quitting under QA, and the null-RHI trace trap.
+- `Docs/setup.md`: the fresh-checkout build is marked verified (2026-11-08) and its blocker closed; a new section documents the two optional keys (`OPENROUTER_API_KEY`, `MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN`) and that neither is needed by the build, the tests or a release.
+- `Docs/Architecture/07_deployment_view.md` and the combined `architecture.md`: build-output path corrected and marked as living outside the repository.
+
+### Verified
+
+- 54 tool tests pass (5 new for `ue_common`).
+- Packaged build still launches into `DemoMap` and `-qaselftest` passes every phase.
+
+## [0.1.2] — 2026-11-09
+
+Scale and façade correction patch. Buildings and the hero elevation now match the reference photography and the cross-checked height data; no new gameplay scope.
+
+### Added
+
+- **`Tools/facade_detail_concepts.py`** — generates frontal building plates (whole elevation, entrance in its façade, building with neighbours) from a local reference photograph through OpenRouter image models. Spec-driven, never overwrites, writes a provenance sidecar per image, output stays in the gitignored `Art/reference/` tree. Local working material only.
+- **`Tools/fbx_export_preset.py`** — the single FBX export preset (`ue_metric_v1` / `ue_character_v1`). Replaces the argument block that had been copied into six exporters.
+- **Façade occlusion probe** in `-qaselftest`: 40 m traces sideways from the road centre at walking height, required wherever a building is staged.
+- **Ionic detail on the hero**: base moulding at every shaft foot, a square abacus over every capital, and a 52-dentil cornice course.
+- **Tool tests**: `Tools/tests/` now covers the input driver, height classification, the Mapbox cross-check, the concept generator and the FBX preset (49 tests).
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Storey height 3.2 → 3.1 m**, calibrated against Mapbox building data, with explicit overrides for three rear outbuildings; the block cross-check now reports 66 matches and no disagreements.
+- **Hero colonnade 47.6 % → 53.1 %** of the 14.50 m elevation, inside the photographed 50–60 % band (thinner entablature and parapet).
+- Blockout regenerated at the new storey height; frontage re-exported and re-imported (6922 42.1 → 39.1 m, El Capitan Theatre 20.0 → 20.5 m).
+- FBX exports now carry smoothing groups (`FACE` instead of `OFF`), so round geometry is no longer faceted and imports stop warning.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Windows floated 1.44 m in front of the wall**, ahead of the colonnade; they now sit on the wall plane behind the columns.
+- **Parapet medallions were flat discs lying on the coping** instead of discs on the parapet face.
+- **The hero façade had no usable collision** — the player could walk through it. It is now complex-as-simple; auto-generated convex hulls were tried and rejected because they bulged into the street.
+- **The three "guessed" block heights were never buildings**: two `building=roof` canopies and a transit shelter. They are classified as non-building volumes and the block now reports zero guessed heights.
+
+### Verified
+
+- Packaged build `-qaselftest`: walk, reset and pause pass; seam transect 1456 samples / 0 holes; wall probe 0/35; façade probe 0/9.
+- Screenshots re-rendered for every change and approved by the owner.
+
+### Known limitations
+
+- Cornice dentil spacing, the base and abacus dimensions are recorded assumptions: the reference photography does not resolve them at our scale.
+- Façade surfaces remain flat blockout materials; the textured pass is `0.1.4`.
+
+## [0.1.1] — 2026-11-08
+
+Collision-fidelity patch. No new scope: street geometry corrections and the QA tooling that measures them.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Sidewalk outer edge ledge.** The sidewalk stood the full 0.15 m kerb height above the DEM at both edges, leaving a 15.8 cm lip where the walk route crossed from terrain onto the south sidewalk. The upstand now tapers from full at the road-side edge to zero at the building-side edge; the north route's worst step fell from 15.1 cm to 6.9 cm.
+- **Crossing ramps too steep.** The kerb-flush run was a fixed 1.5 m, giving ~8.7 % (measured 10–13 cm over 1.5 m). The run is now derived from a target grade (`--max-ramp-grade`, default 8 % ⇒ 1.63 m); the crossing steps 3.4 cm at 0.25 m sampling.
+
+### Added
+
+- **Walk pre-check improvements** (`Art/blender/site/site_assembly.py`): sampling coverage is independent of `--sample` (it previously shrank the route), and the report now prints the grade and the arc-length/offset **location** of the worst step, so a step can be located rather than guessed.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Kerb height recorded as final** at 0.15 m modelled / 0.13 m as built — a standard 6 in LA kerb; neither the 3DEP DEM nor the reference photography can resolve it further (±2 cm), which is far below the character's 45 cm step height.
+
+### Verified
+
+- Site meshes rebuilt and re-imported (7/7, collision flags intact), DemoMap rebuilt, packaged Development build `EXIT=0`.
+- `-qaselftest` on the packaged build: walk 761 cm in 2 s at steady Z 456, reset 0 cm, pause/unpause, transect 1456 samples across 16 rows / **0 holes**, wall probe **0/35** blocking hits.
+
+### Known limitations
+
+- One residual **13.4 cm surface step at s≈198 m** on the south sidewalk (8.0 cm at s≈251 m north). It is not a gap and is below the 45 cm `MaxStepHeight`, so it does not block traversal; the cause is a sidewalk-strip discontinuity near a centreline vertex, recorded in `Art/blender/README.md` as a smoothness refinement.
+- Kerb radii at junctions, driveway aprons, drainage inlets and pavement joints remain unmodelled (unchanged from `0.1.0`).
+
+Nothing yet.
+
+## [0.1.0] — 2026-11-08
+
+The first playable release: a walkable exterior demo of the **6840 Hollywood Blvd** (El Capitan Entertainment Centre) block in Unreal Engine, built on OpenStreetMap layout data and USGS elevation, with the hero façade and the verified block frontage staged on a walkable street.
+
+### Added
+
+- **Unreal project** (`Game/GigLine`) — C++ game module, Enhanced Input, packaged Linux build, and a `DemoMap` that a plain launch opens directly.
+- **Walkable demo level** — terrain from the 3DEP DEM, Hollywood Blvd carriageway, both sidewalks and kerbs with collision, the designated mid-block crossing, and fixed daytime lighting (sun, sky light, sky atmosphere, height fog, pinned exposure).
+- **Hero façade** for 6840 Hollywood Blvd — six-column neoclassical elevation with three genuine portal recesses, entablature, parapet and motto band (`Tools/hero_facade_build.py`, `Tools/ue_hero_facade_import.py`).
+- **Block frontage** — the five verified south-side neighbours (6922, 6902, 6838 El Capitan Theatre, 6822 Budget, 6806–6822, 6800 Lee Drug) and the two north-side buildings (TCL Chinese Theatre, Madame Tussaud's) placed at their OSM positions.
+- **First-person player** — `AGigLineCharacter`: 1.75 m capsule, 1.60 m eye camera, 4 m/s walk, mouse look, jump, reset (`R`) and pause (`Escape`); controls documented in `Docs/controls.md` and shown in-game.
+- **In-game ODbL attribution** — `AGigLineHUD` draws the OpenStreetMap credit and licence line every frame.
+- **QA harness** — `-qaselftest` (walk, reset, pause, seam transect, invisible-wall probe, frame-time capture) and `Tools/input_test.py` / `Tools/input_emulation.py` for OS-level virtual keyboard/mouse input.
+- **Documentation** — setup, build, toolchain, licensing, ODbL review, release checks, and arc42 architecture docs.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **All controls were dead in packaged and PIE builds.** The mapping-context generator wrote key bindings to the deprecated `mappings` array; UE 5.8 reads `DefaultKeyMappings.Mappings`, so the cooked game had zero runtime mappings and every key resolved to nothing. `Tools/ue_create_input_assets.py` now populates the current field.
+- **"Fall-through" was an 8 m invisible box.** `Terrain_DEM` shipped only a bounding-box collision proxy; forcing complex-as-simple collision (`UGigLineAssetTools`) put the player on the actual street.
+- **Reset returned the player to mid-air** — the start position is now captured on the first grounded frame.
+- **Plain launch opened the engine template** — the default map now lives in `DefaultEngine.ini` and points at `DemoMap`.
+- **Game target would not compile** — removed editor-only API use (`UStaticMesh::PostEditChange`, `AActor::GetActorLabel`).
+- **`demo-north-buildings` screenshot** framed 85 % sky (camera 9.5 km west of the buildings); re-pointed to the building mass.
+
+### Verified
+
+- Both sides of the demo are traversable: 1456-sample seam transect, 0 holes, no blocking collision or invisible walls (`-qaselftest` on the packaged build).
+- Placement and street scale match the reference photography and Geo measurements (road 24.3 m, sidewalk offsets 12.5/13.2 m, hero frontage 26.0 m).
+- **414 fps average / p99 3.01 ms at 2560×1440** (Epic preset, TSR, VSync off, no frame generation) — far above the 60 fps target.
+- Fresh checkout builds and packages with the documented external engine (UE 5.8.4).
+
+### Known limitations
+
+- Buildings other than the hero are flat blockout volumes; façade detail, materials and Blosm style scripts are planned for `0.1.4`.
+- Kerb height (0.13 m as built vs 0.15 m assumed), kerb radii, driveway aprons and graded crossing ramps are deferred to `0.1.1`; crossing ramps are kerb flushes.
+- One block only; no vehicles, NPCs, audio, or settings UI yet.

+# Architecture Constraints
+
+## Technical Constraints
+
+| Constraint | Explanation |
+| --- | --- |
+| Engine: Unreal 5.8.4 | Pinned; no bundled Linux clang — uses system clang 23.1.4. Game targets use `BuildSettingsVersion.V7`. |
+| Platform: Linux first | Developed and tested on Bazzite Linux (Fedora 45 base). Windows builds ship but are secondary. |
+| GPU: RTX 5070 Ti 16 GB | Dev workstation target. Vulkan RHI; open kernel module driver 615.78.08. |
+| No static lighting | `r.AllowStaticLighting=False`. The demo is a fixed daytime scene lit entirely dynamically to avoid "LIGHTING NEEDS TO BE REBUILT" warnings. |
+| Blender→UE via FBX | Flat diffuse colours do not survive FBX→Unreal import. All materials are authored in UE. |
+| Terrain collision | UE 5.8 exposes `CollisionTraceFlag` (not `bUseComplexAsSimpleCollision`); Python cannot set it. Must use C++ helper `UGigLineAssetTools::SetComplexCollisionAsSimple`. |
+| Coordinate convention | South = +Y, north = −Y (ground truth = street mesh orientation). 1 m in Blender = 100 cm in Unreal. |
+
+## Organisational Constraints
+
+| Constraint | Explanation |
+| --- | --- |
+| Squash-merge to `main` | Every PR is squash-merged for a linear history. No direct commits to `main` except integration merges. |
+| Visual review required | Any change affecting appearance must produce screenshots for human approval before being marked done. |
+| Asset provenance | Every committed asset must have verified licence and redistribution permission recorded in `THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md`. |
+| Reference photography | Local only, gitignored, never committed. Used for façade work under fair-use / internal-development rationale. |
+| LFS for binaries | `.uasset`, `.umap`, `.blend` tracked with Git LFS; `Binaries/`, `Intermediate/`, `Saved/` are gitignored. |
+
+## Conventions
+
+| Convention | Explanation |
+| --- | --- |
+| Semantic versioning | `MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH`. `0.x` documents breaking changes. `1.0.0` = agreed game scope. |
+| Task tracking in `TODO.md` | Single central task list. `- [ ]` open, `- [-]` or `- [~]` in progress, `- [x]` done, `- [A]` active, `- [D]` deferred. |
+| Headless Blender | All Blender work driven by `bpy` scripts in `Tools/`, not MCP. Blender skills are method guides only. |
+| Named export presets | `ue_metric_v1` for static meshes, `ue_character_v1` for skeletal. Every exporter calls the metre→centimetre conversion. |

+# Context and Scope
+
+## Business Context
+
+The system is a self-contained single-player game. It has no server backend, no multiplayer, and no live service dependencies. Its communication partners are:
+
+| Partner | Inbound | Outbound |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Player (keyboard/mouse) | WASD, mouse, R (reset), Escape (pause), Space (jump) | Rendered 3D scene + HUD |
+| OSM data | Extracted building footprints, street geometry, elevation | — |
+| Filesystem | Engine content (`.uasset`, `.umap`), Blender sources (`.blend`), DEM GeoTIFF | Saved maps, screenshots, packaged build |
+
+## Technical Context
+
+| Channel | Protocol / Format | Purpose |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Keyboard + mouse | Enhanced Input (IA\_\*, IMC_Default) | First-person movement, look, jump, reset, pause |
+| Vulkan RHI | GPU rendering | Scene display at 60 FPS / 1440p |
+| FBX | Autodesk FBX (binary) | Blender→Unreal mesh and skeleton transfer |
+| GeoTIFF | 3DEP 1 m DEM | Terrain heightfield source |
+| OSM XML | Overpass API extract | Building footprint and street layout source |
+| Git / LFS | HTTPS to Gitea remote | Source control, binary asset storage |

+# Solution Strategy
+
+## Technology decisions
+
+- **Unreal Engine 5.8.4** for rendering, World Partition, physics (Chaos), and the Enhanced Input system. Chosen for its Linux support, open C++ source, and real-time rendering quality.
+
+- **Blender 5.2 LTS** for all 3D modelling, UV work, and collision mesh authoring. Driven headlessly via `bpy` Python scripts, not MCP.
+
+- **QGIS 4.2.3** for geographic data cleanup, coordinate conversion (EPSG:26911), and DEM preparation.
+
+- **Blosm 2.7.28** for OSM building and street blockouts inside Blender (layout data only — not authoritative façade, height, or pavement detail).
+
+- **MPFB 2.0.18** for human base meshes and baked materials (NPCs in `0.2.0+`).
+
+## Top-level decomposition
+
+The system is a single Unreal game module (`GigLine`) with no plugins beyond `EnhancedInput`. Content is organised by domain under `/Game/Hollywood/`:
+
+- `Site/` — terrain, road, sidewalks, kerbs, crossing markings, site materials
+
+- `ElCapitan/` — hero façade mesh and materials
+
+- `Frontage/` — south-side block building meshes
+
+- `North/` — north-side building meshes
+
+- `Input/` — Enhanced Input actions and mapping context
+
+All modelling and geographic processing live outside the game project in `Art/`, `Geo/`, and `Tools/`. The `Game/` directory contains only engine-ready content and C++ source.
+
+## Quality achievement
+
+- **Performance**: dynamic-only lighting (no build step, no static shadow maps), world-space-noise materials (cheap procedural variation), minimal overdraw (simple street-level geometry).
+
+- **Walkability**: complex-as-simple collision on terrain (C++ helper forces the flag on the asset), block-all collision on every site mesh, swept transect QA verifies zero raycast holes.
+
+- **Fidelity**: geographic data verified before modelling (footprints, bounds, DEM); building placement checked against street mesh, never in isolation; reference photography drives façade work.
+
+- **Reproducibility**: pinned toolchain in `Docs/toolchain.md`, named export presets, `Tools/check-lfs.sh` gate, fresh-checkout build procedure in `Docs/build.md`.

+# Building Block View
+
+## Whitebox Overall System
+
+The system decomposes into five top-level building blocks:
+
+| **Name** | **Responsibility** |
+| --- | --- |
+| Gameplay | Player pawn, movement, camera, input bindings, HUD, game mode |
+| Site | Terrain, road, sidewalks, kerbs, crossing markings, site-level collision |
+| Façades | Hero façade (El Capitan), south block frontage, north-side buildings |
+| Art Pipeline | Blender models, geographic data, export scripts, import scripts |
+| QA & Review | Screenshot pipeline, self-test harness, visual review workflow |
+
+### Gameplay
+
+C++ classes in `Game/GigLine/Source/GigLine/`:
+
+| Class | Responsibility | Key detail |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `AGigLineCharacter` | First-person player pawn | 1.75 m capsule, 4.5 m/s walk, Enhanced Input bindings, reset, pause, `-qaselftest` harness |
+| `AGigLineGameModeBase` | Sets game mode and HUD class | `HUDClass = AGigLineHUD` |
+| `AGigLineHUD` | HUD text overlay | `DrawText` every frame, bottom-left |
+| `AGigLineNPCPerson` | NPC prefab (future) | Capsule + visible MPFB body, feet on Z 0 |
+| `AGigLineShotActor` | Screenshot camera walker | Drives cameras in `-game` mode, `FScreenshotRequest`, quits |
+| `UGigLineAssetTools` | C++ collision helpers | `SetComplexCollisionAsSimple` on `StaticMesh` assets |
+
+Input assets in `/Game/Input/`: `IA_Move`, `IA_MoveBack`, `IA_Strafe`, `IA_StrafeLeft`, `IA_Look`, `IA_Jump`, `IA_Reset`, `IA_Pause`, bound in `IMC_Default`.
+
+### Site
+
+Static meshes and materials in `/Game/Hollywood/Site/`:
+
+| Asset | Role |
+| --- | --- |
+| `Terrain_DEM` | Ground heightfield (complex-as-simple collision) |
+| `Road_Hollywood` | Carriageway surface (block-all collision) |
+| `Sidewalk_North`, `Sidewalk_South` | Pedestrian surfaces (block-all collision) |
+| `Kerb_North`, `Kerb_South` | Kerb edges |
+| `Crossing_Markings` | Zebra markings at signalised crossing |
+| `M_Asphalt`, `M_Concrete`, `M_KerbConcrete`, `M_Ground`, `M_RoadPaint`, `M_Stucco`, `M_FacadeStone` | Procedural materials (world-space-noise blend + roughness) |
+
+### Façades
+
+| Asset | Role |
+| --- | --- |
+| `SM_HeroFacade` | El Capitan Entertainment Centre detailed façade |
+| `SM_ElCapitanTheatre`, `SM_Budget_6822`, `SM_Hollywood_6806`, `SM_Hollywood_6902`, `SM_Hollywood_6922`, `SM_LeeDrug_6800` | South block frontage (6 buildings) |
+| `SM_Madame_Tussauds`, `SM_TCL_Chinese_Theatre` | North-side buildings (within 50 m) |
+
+### Art Pipeline
+
+Python scripts in `Tools/` drive the content pipeline:
+
+| Script group | Purpose |
+| --- | --- |
+| `export_*`, `hero_facade_build` | Blender headless export (FBX) |
+| `ue_import_*`, `ue_hero_facade_import` | Unreal headless import + placement |
+| `ue_build_demo_map`, `ue_build_review_map` | Map assembly (lighting, meshes, player start) |
+| `ue_create_input_assets` | Enhanced Input actions + mapping context |
+| `render_screenshots.sh` | Screenshot capture pipeline |
+| `judge_screenshot.py` | Vision-model pre-check (optional) |
+| `input_emulation.py`, `input_test.py` | OS-level virtual keyboard/mouse injection for input verification |
+| `Tools/tests/` | Stdlib `unittest` tests for the pure parts of the tools (`requirements-tools.txt`) |
+| `Geo/tools/mapbox_buildings.py` | Second height source: Mapbox `mapbox-streets-v8` building data vs our OSM heights |
+
+Source data: `Art/blender/` (`.blend` files), `Geo/` (OSM extracts, DEM, verification docs). Tool rules (one script one job, result files for commandlets, clean worktree for generators, documented inventory, tests for the pure parts) are in [`AGENTS.md`](../../AGENTS.md#python-and-shell-tooling).
+
+### QA & Review
+
+- `AGigLineShotActor` walks fixed cameras in `-game` mode, captures PNGs, and quits.
+
+- `-qaselftest` switch on `AGigLineCharacter` runs a core-ticker harness: walk 2 s, reset, pause/unpause, ground transect — all PASS/FAIL logged.
+
+- `Screenshots/` holds committed PNGs and `README.md` approval table.
+
+## Level 2
+
+### White Box Gameplay — Input Flow
+
+1. `AGigLineCharacter::SetupPlayerInputComponent` binds `IA_*` actions to `MoveForward`, `MoveBack`, `MoveStrafe`, `MoveLeft`, `Look`, `StartJump`/`StopJump`, `ResetToStart`, `TogglePause`.
+
+2. Movement delegates to `ApplyMove(Forward, Strafe)` → `AddMovementInput`.
+
+3. Look applies yaw/pitch scaled by `LookSensitivity` (Y invertable via `bInvertLookY`).
+
+4. `ResetToStart` teleports to `StartLocation` (captured on first grounded frame), clears velocity, resets control rotation.
+
+5. `TogglePause` toggles `APlayerController::SetPause`, swaps input mode between `FInputModeGameOnly` and `FInputModeUIOnly`, shows/hides mouse cursor.
+
+### White Box Site — Collision Model
+
+- Every site mesh (road, sidewalks, kerbs, crossing) is `STATIC` with `BlockAll` collision.
+
+- `Terrain_DEM` uses `CTF_UseComplexAsSimple` (forced by `UGigLineAssetTools` at build time, saved on the asset).
+
+- The terrain corridor is carved to half-width 10.7 m around the road centreline so the player can walk the carriageway and both sidewalks.
+
+- Ground Z: north sidewalk 395, road 366, south sidewalk 317 (3.94 m fall along the block, matching the DEM).

+# Runtime View
+
+## Walk the block
+
+1.  Player launches game → `AGigLineGameModeBase` spawns `AGigLineCharacter` at `PlayerStart` `(-13336, -1150, 600)`.
+
+2.  Character falls 144 cm to road surface (Z 456) and begins walking. `StartLocation` captured on first grounded frame.
+
+3.  Player holds W → `IA_Move` fires → `ApplyMove(1, 0)` → `AddMovementInput(ForwardVector, 1)` → capsule moves at 450 cm/s.
+
+4.  Mouse move → `IA_Look` fires → yaw/pitch applied to controller rotation → camera follows (attached to capsule at 160 cm eye height).
+
+5.  Player presses R → `ResetToStart` → teleport to `StartLocation`/`StartRotation`, `StopMovementImmediately`, reset control rotation.
+
+6.  Player presses Escape → `TogglePause` → `SetPause(true)`, switch to `FInputModeUIOnly`, show cursor. World timers stop; core tickers continue.
+
+7.  Player presses Escape again → `TogglePause` → `SetPause(false)`, switch to `FInputModeGameOnly`, hide cursor.
+
+## Screenshot capture
+
+1.  `Tools/render_screenshots.sh` compiles editor, builds `ReviewMap` from `Tools/ue_build_review_map.py`, launches game in `-game` mode.
+
+2.  `AGigLineShotActor` iterates the camera list, sets view, calls `HighResShot 1280x720`, waits for capture.
+
+3.  On last camera, requests engine quit. PNGs are copied to `Screenshots/` and committed.
+
+## QA self-test (`-qaselftest`)
+
+1.  Core ticker starts at `BeginPlay` (not a world timer — world timers freeze on pause).
+
+2.  1.0 s: begin driving forward input.
+
+3.  3.0 s: stop, measure displacement (> 200 cm = PASS).
+
+4.  3.5 s: call `ResetToStart`.
+
+5.  4.0 s: measure distance from spawn (< 100 cm = PASS).
+
+6.  4.5 s: call `TogglePause`, check `IsGamePaused()` (= true = PASS).
+
+7.  5.5 s: call `TogglePause`, check `IsGamePaused()` (= false = PASS).
+
+8.  6.0 s: swept ground transect across three lanes (Y −1400, −167, +1000), X −14900 to −9420 at 200 cm spacing. 84 samples, 0 holes = PASS.
+
+9.  7.0 s: final verdict logged.
+
+## Build and import pipeline
+
+1.  Blender headless (`Tools/export_*.py`) reads `.blend` files, applies metre→centimetre conversion, exports FBX with `ue_metric_v1` preset.
+
+2.  Unreal headless (`Tools/ue_import_*.py`) imports FBX via Interchange, places meshes at geographic coordinates, sets collision profiles.
+
+3.  `Tools/ue_build_demo_map.py` assembles `DemoMap`: creates/repositions actors, sets lighting, saves map and assets.

+# Cross-cutting Concepts
+
+## Coordinate system and scale
+
+- **Source CRS**: EPSG:26911 (UTM zone 11N). Local origin recorded in `Geo/`.
+
+- **Blender**: metres. East → +X, north → +Y (Blender convention).
+
+- **Unreal**: centimetres. East → +X, north → **−Y** (confirmed from street mesh: `Sidewalk_North` Y −1912..−1053, `Sidewalk_South` Y +718..+1447).
+
+- **Conversion**: every exporter calls the metre→centimetre function. Import presets (`ue_metric_v1`, `ue_character_v1`) are named and repeatable.
+
+Rule: place a building only against a neighbour or street mesh, never in isolation.
+
+## Collision model
+
+- Site meshes (road, sidewalks, kerbs, crossing): `STATIC` mobility, `BlockAll` collision profile.
+
+- Terrain: `STATIC`, `CTF_UseComplexAsSimple` (forced by `UGigLineAssetTools` at build time, saved on the asset — the flag lives on the `UStaticMesh`/`UBodySetup`, not the map).
+
+- Buildings: `STATIC`, simple collision (convex hull from mesh).
+
+- Rule: the collision flag must be saved on the asset. Saving only the `.umap` silently reverts it.
+
+## Lighting
+
+- Dynamic-only: `r.AllowStaticLighting=False`. All lights are `MOVABLE`.
+
+- Fixed daytime rig: directional light (sun, −62° pitch), sky light, exponential height fog, post-process volume with fixed exposure.
+
+- Rationale: avoids "LIGHTING NEEDS TO BE REBUILT" warnings; no bake step; the scene never changes time of day.
+
+## Materials
+
+- All materials authored in Unreal, not carried from Blender (FBX import loses diffuse colours).
+
+- World-space-noise blend nodes for cheap procedural variation (asphalt grain, concrete speckle, stucco roughness).
+
+- Instance parameters where tunable (e.g. wetness, ageing).
+
+## Geographic data provenance
+
+- OSM extract is layout data only — not authoritative for façade, height, or pavement detail.
+
+- DEM from 3DEP 1 m; elevation verified against cross-sections in `Geo/verification/`.
+
+- Reference photography (local, gitignored) drives manual façade work.
+
+## QA harness
+
+- `-qaselftest`: core ticker (not world timer) so pause cannot freeze the test that proves pause works.
+
+- `GigLine SIM` / `GigLine GROUND`: TEMP diagnostic logging, to be removed before release tag.
+
+- Screenshot approval: human must tick `Screenshots/README.md` before visual work is marked done.

+# Architecture Decisions
+
+## ADR-1: Dynamic-only lighting for the demo
+
+- **Context**: The demo is a fixed daytime scene. Stationary lights demand a lighting build and produce "LIGHTING NEEDS TO BE REBUILT" warnings.
+
+- **Decision**: `r.AllowStaticLighting=False`, all lights `MOVABLE`.
+
+- **Consequences**: No bake step, no warning, simpler iteration. Slightly higher GPU cost per frame (no baked shadows) — acceptable for the demo scope.
+
+## ADR-2: Materials authored in Unreal, not imported from Blender
+
+- **Context**: FBX→Unreal import maps all Blender diffuse colours to white. Flat colour materials do not survive the pipeline.
+
+- **Decision**: Build all materials (asphalt, concrete, stucco, façade stone, road paint) directly in Unreal with procedural nodes.
+
+- **Consequences**: Materials cannot be previewed in Blender look-dev. Must round-trip to Unreal for visual check. But: full PBR control, world-space noise, no import surprise.
+
+## ADR-3: Complex-as-simple collision on terrain via C++ helper
+
+- **Context**: UE 5.8 removed `bUseComplexAsSimpleCollision`. Python cannot set `CollisionTraceFlag` on `StaticMesh`/`BodySetup` at all. The Interchange default is bbox-only simple collision, which placed an invisible lid 8 m above the street.
+
+- **Decision**: `UGigLineAssetTools::SetComplexCollisionAsSimple` (C++) forces `CTF_UseComplexAsSimple` and saves the asset.
+
+- **Consequences**: One C++ helper class. The flag must be saved on the asset (not just the map). No Python workaround exists.
+
+## ADR-4: Reset captures StartLocation on first grounded frame
+
+- **Context**: `BeginPlay` captures `StartLocation` at the PlayerStart, which is above grade (Z 600) so the capsule does not spawn embedded. Every reset dropped the player 1.4 m back into the air.
+
+- **Decision**: Repeating 0.25 s timer captures `StartLocation` once the character reports `IsMovingOnGround()`, then clears itself.
+
+- **Consequences**: Reset is correct. A one-shot timer at 2 s is wrong (fires after walking begins, records mid-stride position).
+
+## ADR-5: Core ticker for QA self-test, not world timer
+
+- **Context**: Pausing the game stops world timers. A timer-driven test freezes exactly when it proves pause works.
+
+- **Decision**: `FTSTicker::GetCoreTicker()` drives the `-qaselftest` harness.
+
+- **Consequences**: Test runs even while paused. Must be enabled explicitly (`-qaselftest`), never in normal play.
+
+## ADR-6: South = +Y, north = −Y in Unreal
+
+- **Context**: The street mesh established this convention: `Sidewalk_North` has Y range −1912..−1053, `Sidewalk_South` has +718..+1447.
+
+- **Decision**: Adopt it project-wide. Never place a building by assumption; always verify against a street mesh or neighbour.
+
+- **Consequences**: Matches Blender’s north→+Y after the Y-flip in the `ue_metric_v1` export preset.
+
+## ADR-7: Headless Blender via bpy scripts, not MCP
+
+- **Context**: Blender skill packs assume an MCP server; the project does not run one.
+
+- **Decision**: All Blender work driven by Python scripts in `Tools/`. Skill packs used as method guides (checklists, naming, proportions) only.
+
+- **Consequences**: Scripts are version-controlled and repeatable. No live Blender session needed for CI.

+| R-5 | `GigLine SIM` / `GigLine GROUND` TEMP diagnostic logging still in `GigLineCharacter.cpp` | Medium | Strip behind a cvar or remove entirely before the `v0.1.0` release tag. |
+| TD-1 | Materials are Unreal-only — no Blender preview round-trip | Low | Accepted (ADR-2). Look-dev happens in UE; screenshot review catches issues. |

+| PIE | Play In Editor — an Unreal Editor feature that runs the current map as a live game session inside the editor window, with full game code, input, and physics, without packaging a build. Used for interactive verification (walk, reset, pause) before the scripted QA self-test. |
+| Complex-as-simple collision | `CTF_UseComplexAsSimple`: Unreal collision mode where the render mesh triangles are used as the collision surface, instead of a simplified proxy. Required for terrain so the player walks on the actual ground shape. |
+| DEM | Digital Elevation Model. 3DEP 1 m resolution GeoTIFF covering the demo bounds. Source of terrain heightfield. |
+| El Capitan | El Capitan Entertainment Centre, 6838 Hollywood Blvd. The hero building of the demo. |
+| Enhanced Input | Unreal’s modern input system (UE 5+). Uses Input Actions (`IA_*`) and Input Mapping Contexts (`IMC_*`) instead of legacy axis/action bindings. |
+| EPSG:26911 | UTM zone 11N, the projected CRS used for the demo area. Local origin recorded in `Geo/`. |
+| Hero façade | The detailed, reference-calibrated model of the El Capitan building frontage. |
+| MPFB | MakeHuman Plugin for Blender (2.0.18). Generates parametric human base meshes with rigs and baked materials. |
+| PlayerStart | Unreal actor that defines where the player pawn spawns. Positioned above grade so the capsule does not embed in the floor on spawn. |
+| QA self-test | The `-qaselftest` command-line switch that runs an automated behaviour check (walk, reset, pause, ground transect) via a core ticker. |
+| Site | The terrain, road, sidewalks, kerbs, and crossing markings — the ground-level infrastructure of the demo area. |
+| Squash merge | Git merge strategy that compresses all branch commits into one commit on `main`, keeping a linear history. |
+| Swept transect | A QA technique that raycasts vertically at regular intervals along a path (e.g. every 200 cm along both sidewalks and the carriageway) and counts holes (misses). Zero holes = the block is fully walkable. |
+| UE | Unreal Engine — Epic Games' real-time 3D creation platform (version 5.8.4 in this project). Comprises the Unreal Editor (including PIE, content browser, viewport, blueprint editor), a C++ game framework, and runtime systems for rendering (Vulkan RHI on Linux), physics (Chaos), and input (Enhanced Input). The game project is `GigLine.uproject`; game code is a single C++ module in `Game/GigLine/Source/GigLine/`. |
+| World Partition | Unreal's world composition system for large open-world levels. Not yet used in `0.1.0` but planned for `0.3.0+` driving routes. |
+| Y convention | In Unreal, south = +Y, north = −Y (confirmed from street mesh orientation). In Blender, north = +Y; the `ue_metric_v1` export preset flips Y. |

+title: Gig Line Architecture Documentation
+description: Architecture documentation for the Gig Line Linux-first Unreal Engine 5 demo around 6840 Hollywood Blvd.
+status: v0.1.0
+date: 2026-11-08
+---
+
+# Introduction and Goals
+
+Gig Line is a Linux-first Unreal Engine 5 game that reconstructs a walkable (and eventually drivable) stretch of Hollywood Boulevard around 6840 Hollywood Blvd / El Capitan Entertainment Centre. The initial release (`0.1.0`) delivers a first-person walking demo of the south-side block between Highland Avenue and Orange Drive, plus north-side buildings within 50 m of the frontage.
+
+## Requirements Overview
+
+| ID | Description |
+| --- | --- |
+| F-1 | Walk both sides of Hollywood Blvd in the demo area without falling through geometry |
+| F-2 | First-person movement (WASD + mouse look), jump, reset (R), pause (Escape) |
+| F-3 | Fixed daytime lighting and atmosphere (sun, sky, fog, exposure) |
+| F-5 | Designated street crossing with zebra markings at signalised crossings |
+| F-6 | Building façades recognisable against reference photography |
+| F-7 | Terrain, road, and sidewalk follow real-world DEM elevation |
+| F-8 | 60 FPS at 1440p on the documented workstation and quality preset |
+
+Full requirements and progress are in [TODO.md](../../TODO.md); version direction is in [ROADMAP.md](../../ROADMAP.md).
+
+## Quality Goals
+
+| Priority | Quality Goal | Scenario |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| 1 | **Performance efficiency** | 60 FPS at 2560×1440 on RTX 5070 Ti, documented preset, no frame generation |
+| 2 | **Terrain walkability** | Zero raycast holes across both sidewalks and the carriageway (84-sample transect passes) |
+| 3 | **Geographic fidelity** | Building placement, street scale, and façade identity match reference photography |
+| 4 | **Build reproducibility** | Fresh checkout + documented engine path produces a runnable Linux build |
+| 5 | **Provenance** | Every committed asset has recorded provenance |
+
+## Stakeholders
+
+| Role | Contact | Expectations |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Owner / Director | zwitschi | Sets scope, approves screenshots, cuts release tags |
+| AI coding agents | multiple sessions | Read `AGENTS.md`, `TODO.md`, `ROADMAP.md`, and this document for architecture constraints; never commit directly to `main` |
+| Players | end users | Walk the demo at 60 FPS without falling through the world; see a recognisable Hollywood block |
+
+# Architecture Constraints
+
+## Technical Constraints
+
+| Constraint | Explanation |
+| --- | --- |
+| Engine: Unreal 5.8.4 | Pinned; no bundled Linux clang — uses system clang 23.1.4. Game targets use `BuildSettingsVersion.V7`. |
+| Platform: Linux first | Developed and tested on Bazzite Linux (Fedora 45 base). Windows builds ship but are secondary. |
+| GPU: RTX 5070 Ti 16 GB | Dev workstation target. Vulkan RHI; open kernel module driver 615.78.08. |
+| No static lighting | `r.AllowStaticLighting=False`. The demo is a fixed daytime scene lit entirely dynamically to avoid "LIGHTING NEEDS TO BE REBUILT" warnings. |
+| Blender→UE via FBX | Flat diffuse colours do not survive FBX→Unreal import. All materials are authored in UE. |
+| Terrain collision | UE 5.8 exposes `CollisionTraceFlag` (not `bUseComplexAsSimpleCollision`); Python cannot set it. Must use C++ helper `UGigLineAssetTools::SetComplexCollisionAsSimple`. |
+| Coordinate convention | South = +Y, north = −Y (ground truth = street mesh orientation). 1 m in Blender = 100 cm in Unreal. |
+
+## Organisational Constraints
+
+| Constraint | Explanation |
+| --- | --- |
+| Squash-merge to `main` | Every PR is squash-merged for a linear history. No direct commits to `main` except integration merges. |
+| Visual review required | Any change affecting appearance must produce screenshots for human approval before being marked done. |
+| Asset provenance | Every committed asset must have verified licence and redistribution permission recorded in `THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md`. |
+| Reference photography | Local only, gitignored, never committed. Used for façade work under fair-use / internal-development rationale. |
+| LFS for binaries | `.uasset`, `.umap`, `.blend` tracked with Git LFS; `Binaries/`, `Intermediate/`, `Saved/` are gitignored. |
+
+## Conventions
+
+| Convention | Explanation |
+| --- | --- |
+| Semantic versioning | `MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH`. `0.x` documents breaking changes. `1.0.0` = agreed game scope. |
+| Task tracking in `TODO.md` | Single central task list. `- [ ]` open, `- [-]` or `- [~]` in progress, `- [x]` done, `- [A]` active, `- [D]` deferred. |
+| Headless Blender | All Blender work driven by `bpy` scripts in `Tools/`, not MCP. Blender skills are method guides only. |
+| Named export presets | `ue_metric_v1` for static meshes, `ue_character_v1` for skeletal. Every exporter calls the metre→centimetre conversion. |
+
+# Context and Scope
+
+## Business Context
+
+The system is a self-contained single-player game. It has no server backend, no multiplayer, and no live service dependencies. Its communication partners are:
+
+| Partner | Inbound | Outbound |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Player (keyboard/mouse) | WASD, mouse, R (reset), Escape (pause), Space (jump) | Rendered 3D scene + HUD |
+| OSM data | Extracted building footprints, street geometry, elevation | — |
+| Filesystem | Engine content (`.uasset`, `.umap`), Blender sources (`.blend`), DEM GeoTIFF | Saved maps, screenshots, packaged build |
+
+## Technical Context
+
+| Channel | Protocol / Format | Purpose |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Keyboard + mouse | Enhanced Input (IA\_\*, IMC_Default) | First-person movement, look, jump, reset, pause |
+| Vulkan RHI | GPU rendering | Scene display at 60 FPS / 1440p |
+| FBX | Autodesk FBX (binary) | Blender→Unreal mesh and skeleton transfer |
+| GeoTIFF | 3DEP 1 m DEM | Terrain heightfield source |
+| OSM XML | Overpass API extract | Building footprint and street layout source |
+| Git / LFS | HTTPS to Gitea remote | Source control, binary asset storage |
+
+# Solution Strategy
+
+## Technology decisions
+
+- **Unreal Engine 5.8.4** for rendering, World Partition, physics (Chaos), and the Enhanced Input system. Chosen for its Linux support, open C++ source, and real-time rendering quality.
+
+- **Blender 5.2 LTS** for all 3D modelling, UV work, and collision mesh authoring. Driven headlessly via `bpy` Python scripts, not MCP.
+
+- **QGIS 4.2.3** for geographic data cleanup, coordinate conversion (EPSG:26911), and DEM preparation.
+
+- **Blosm 2.7.28** for OSM building and street blockouts inside Blender (layout data only — not authoritative façade, height, or pavement detail).
+
+- **MPFB 2.0.18** for human base meshes and baked materials (NPCs in `0.2.0+`).
+
+## Top-level decomposition
+
+The system is a single Unreal game module (`GigLine`) with no plugins beyond `EnhancedInput`. Content is organised by domain under `/Game/Hollywood/`:
+
+- `Site/` — terrain, road, sidewalks, kerbs, crossing markings, site materials
+
+- `ElCapitan/` — hero façade mesh and materials
+
+- `Frontage/` — south-side block building meshes
+
+- `North/` — north-side building meshes
+
+- `Input/` — Enhanced Input actions and mapping context
+
+All modelling and geographic processing live outside the game project in `Art/`, `Geo/`, and `Tools/`. The `Game/` directory contains only engine-ready content and C++ source.
+
+## Quality achievement
+
+- **Performance**: dynamic-only lighting (no build step, no static shadow maps), world-space-noise materials (cheap procedural variation), minimal overdraw (simple street-level geometry).
+
+- **Walkability**: complex-as-simple collision on terrain (C++ helper forces the flag on the asset), block-all collision on every site mesh, swept transect QA verifies zero raycast holes.
+
+- **Fidelity**: geographic data verified before modelling (footprints, bounds, DEM); building placement checked against street mesh, never in isolation; reference photography drives façade work.
+
+- **Reproducibility**: pinned toolchain in `Docs/toolchain.md`, named export presets, `Tools/check-lfs.sh` gate, fresh-checkout build procedure in `Docs/build.md`.
+
+# Building Block View
+
+## Whitebox Overall System
+
+The system decomposes into five top-level building blocks:
+
+| **Name** | **Responsibility** |
+| --- | --- |
+| Gameplay | Player pawn, movement, camera, input bindings, HUD, game mode |
+| Site | Terrain, road, sidewalks, kerbs, crossing markings, site-level collision |
+| Façades | Hero façade (El Capitan), south block frontage, north-side buildings |
+| Art Pipeline | Blender models, geographic data, export scripts, import scripts |
+| QA & Review | Screenshot pipeline, self-test harness, visual review workflow |
+
+### Gameplay
+
+C++ classes in `Game/GigLine/Source/GigLine/`:
+
+| Class | Responsibility | Key detail |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `AGigLineCharacter` | First-person player pawn | 1.75 m capsule, 4.5 m/s walk, Enhanced Input bindings, reset, pause, `-qaselftest` harness |
+| `AGigLineGameModeBase` | Sets game mode and HUD class | `HUDClass = AGigLineHUD` |
+| `AGigLineHUD` | HUD text overlay | `DrawText` every frame, bottom-left |
+| `AGigLineNPCPerson` | NPC prefab (future) | Capsule + visible MPFB body, feet on Z 0 |
+| `AGigLineShotActor` | Screenshot camera walker | Drives cameras in `-game` mode, `FScreenshotRequest`, quits |
+| `UGigLineAssetTools` | C++ collision helpers | `SetComplexCollisionAsSimple` on `StaticMesh` assets |
+
+Input assets in `/Game/Input/`: `IA_Move`, `IA_MoveBack`, `IA_Strafe`, `IA_StrafeLeft`, `IA_Look`, `IA_Jump`, `IA_Reset`, `IA_Pause`, bound in `IMC_Default`.
+
+### Site
+
+Static meshes and materials in `/Game/Hollywood/Site/`:
+
+| Asset | Role |
+| --- | --- |
+| `Terrain_DEM` | Ground heightfield (complex-as-simple collision) |
+| `Road_Hollywood` | Carriageway surface (block-all collision) |
+| `Sidewalk_North`, `Sidewalk_South` | Pedestrian surfaces (block-all collision) |

+| `M_Asphalt`, `M_Concrete`, `M_KerbConcrete`, `M_Ground`, `M_RoadPaint`, `M_Stucco`, `M_FacadeStone` | Procedural materials (world-space-noise blend + roughness) |
+
+### Façades
+
+| Asset | Role |
+| --- | --- |
+| `SM_HeroFacade` | El Capitan Entertainment Centre detailed façade |
+| `SM_ElCapitanTheatre`, `SM_Budget_6822`, `SM_Hollywood_6806`, `SM_Hollywood_6902`, `SM_Hollywood_6922`, `SM_LeeDrug_6800` | South block frontage (6 buildings) |
+| `SM_Madame_Tussauds`, `SM_TCL_Chinese_Theatre` | North-side buildings (within 50 m) |
+
+### Art Pipeline
+
+Python scripts in `Tools/` drive the content pipeline:
+
+| Script group | Purpose |
+| --- | --- |
+| `export_*`, `hero_facade_build` | Blender headless export (FBX) |
+| `ue_import_*`, `ue_hero_facade_import` | Unreal headless import + placement |
+| `ue_build_demo_map`, `ue_build_review_map` | Map assembly (lighting, meshes, player start) |
+| `ue_create_input_assets` | Enhanced Input actions + mapping context |
+| `render_screenshots.sh` | Screenshot capture pipeline |
+| `judge_screenshot.py` | Vision-model pre-check (optional) |
+| `input_emulation.py`, `input_test.py` | OS-level virtual keyboard/mouse injection for input verification |
+| `Tools/tests/` | Stdlib `unittest` tests for the pure parts of the tools (`requirements-tools.txt`) |
+| `Geo/tools/mapbox_buildings.py` | Second height source: Mapbox `mapbox-streets-v8` building data vs our OSM heights |
+
+Source data: `Art/blender/` (`.blend` files), `Geo/` (OSM extracts, DEM, verification docs).
+
+### QA & Review
+
+- `AGigLineShotActor` walks fixed cameras in `-game` mode, captures PNGs, and quits.
+
+- `-qaselftest` switch on `AGigLineCharacter` runs a core-ticker harness: walk 2 s, reset, pause/unpause, ground transect — all PASS/FAIL logged.
+
+- `Screenshots/` holds committed PNGs and `README.md` approval table.
+
+## Level 2
+
+### White Box Gameplay — Input Flow
+
+1. `AGigLineCharacter::SetupPlayerInputComponent` binds `IA_*` actions to `MoveForward`, `MoveBack`, `MoveStrafe`, `MoveLeft`, `Look`, `StartJump`/`StopJump`, `ResetToStart`, `TogglePause`.
+
+2. Movement delegates to `ApplyMove(Forward, Strafe)` → `AddMovementInput`.
+
+3. Look applies yaw/pitch scaled by `LookSensitivity` (Y invertable via `bInvertLookY`).
+
+4. `ResetToStart` teleports to `StartLocation` (captured on first grounded frame), clears velocity, resets control rotation.
+
+5. `TogglePause` toggles `APlayerController::SetPause`, swaps input mode between `FInputModeGameOnly` and `FInputModeUIOnly`, shows/hides mouse cursor.
+
+### White Box Site — Collision Model
+
+- Every site mesh (road, sidewalks, kerbs, crossing) is `STATIC` with `BlockAll` collision.
+
+- `Terrain_DEM` uses `CTF_UseComplexAsSimple` (forced by `UGigLineAssetTools` at build time, saved on the asset).
+
+- The terrain corridor is carved to half-width 10.7 m around the road centreline so the player can walk the carriageway and both sidewalks.
+
+- Ground Z: north sidewalk 395, road 366, south sidewalk 317 (3.94 m fall along the block, matching the DEM).
+
+# Runtime View
+
+## Walk the block
+
+1. Player launches game → `AGigLineGameModeBase` spawns `AGigLineCharacter` at `PlayerStart` `(-13336, -1150, 600)`.
+
+2. Character falls 144 cm to road surface (Z 456) and begins walking. `StartLocation` captured on first grounded frame.
+
+3. Player holds W → `IA_Move` fires → `ApplyMove(1, 0)` → `AddMovementInput(ForwardVector, 1)` → capsule moves at 450 cm/s.
+
+4. Mouse move → `IA_Look` fires → yaw/pitch applied to controller rotation → camera follows (attached to capsule at 160 cm eye height).
+
+5. Player presses R → `ResetToStart` → teleport to `StartLocation`/`StartRotation`, `StopMovementImmediately`, reset control rotation.
+
+6. Player presses Escape → `TogglePause` → `SetPause(true)`, switch to `FInputModeUIOnly`, show cursor. World timers stop; core tickers continue.
+
+7. Player presses Escape again → `TogglePause` → `SetPause(false)`, switch to `FInputModeGameOnly`, hide cursor.
+
+## Screenshot capture
+
+1. `Tools/render_screenshots.sh` compiles editor, builds `ReviewMap` from `Tools/ue_build_review_map.py`, launches game in `-game` mode.
+
+2. `AGigLineShotActor` iterates the camera list, sets view, calls `HighResShot 1280x720`, waits for capture.
+
+3. On last camera, requests engine quit. PNGs are copied to `Screenshots/` and committed.
+
+## QA self-test (`-qaselftest`)
+
+1. Core ticker starts at `BeginPlay` (not a world timer — world timers freeze on pause).
+
+2. 1.0 s: begin driving forward input.
+
+3. 3.0 s: stop, measure displacement (> 200 cm = PASS).
+
+4. 3.5 s: call `ResetToStart`.
+
+5. 4.0 s: measure distance from spawn (< 100 cm = PASS).
+
+6. 4.5 s: call `TogglePause`, check `IsGamePaused()` (= true = PASS).
+
+7. 5.5 s: call `TogglePause`, check `IsGamePaused()` (= false = PASS).
+
+8. 6.0 s: swept ground transect across three lanes (Y −1400, −167, +1000), X −14900 to −9420 at 200 cm spacing. 84 samples, 0 holes = PASS.
+
+9. 7.0 s: final verdict logged.
+
+## Build and import pipeline
+
+1. Blender headless (`Tools/export_*.py`) reads `.blend` files, applies metre→centimetre conversion, exports FBX with `ue_metric_v1` preset.
+
+2. Unreal headless (`Tools/ue_import_*.py`) imports FBX via Interchange, places meshes at geographic coordinates, sets collision profiles.
+
+3. `Tools/ue_build_demo_map.py` assembles `DemoMap`: creates/repositions actors, sets lighting, saves map and assets.
+
+# Deployment View
+
+## Infrastructure Level 1 — Development Workstation
+
+| Node | Specification |
+| --- | --- |
+| Dev workstation | Bazzite Linux 45 (Fedora 45 base, immutable ostree), Ryzen 7 7700X, 64 GB RAM, RTX 5070 Ti 16 GB, Vulkan RHI |

+| Build output | `/run/media/system/DATA/Builds/GigLineQA/Linux` (packaged Development build, ~1.1 GiB; outside the repository) |
+
+Motivation  
+Single-machine development. No build farm, no CI pipeline yet. The engine, toolchain, and GPU are all on the same host.
+
+Quality and Performance Features
+
+- Vulkan RHI on RTX 5070 Ti, open kernel module driver 615.78.08.
+
+- System clang 23.1.4 (no bundled engine clang) compiles game code.
+
+- Build time: ~90 s incremental, ~5 min clean for the editor target.
+
+Mapping of Building Blocks to Infrastructure
+
+| Building Block | Infrastructure Element |
+| --- | --- |
+| Gameplay (C++) | Dev workstation — compiled to `libUnrealEditor-GigLine.so`, loaded by engine |
+| Site + Façades (UE content) | Dev workstation — `.uasset`/`.umap` in `Game/GigLine/Content/` |
+| Art Pipeline (Python/Blender) | Dev workstation — headless Blender 5.2 Flatpak, Python 3.14.8 |
+| QA & Review | Dev workstation — game run in `-game` mode, PNGs to `Screenshots/` |

+| Linux packaged build | Development config, ~1.1 GiB. Contains engine binaries, game module, cooked content, no editor. |
+| Run command | `./GigLine.sh -windowed -ResX=2560 -ResY=1440` |
+
+No server infrastructure. The game is a standalone executable.
+
+# Cross-cutting Concepts
+
+## Coordinate system and scale
+
+- **Source CRS**: EPSG:26911 (UTM zone 11N). Local origin recorded in `Geo/`.
+
+- **Blender**: metres. East → +X, north → +Y (Blender convention).
+
+- **Unreal**: centimetres. East → +X, north → **−Y** (confirmed from street mesh: `Sidewalk_North` Y −1912..−1053, `Sidewalk_South` Y +718..+1447).
+
+- **Conversion**: every exporter calls the metre→centimetre function. Import presets (`ue_metric_v1`, `ue_character_v1`) are named and repeatable.
+
+Rule: place a building only against a neighbour or street mesh, never in isolation.
+
+## Collision model
+
+- Site meshes (road, sidewalks, kerbs, crossing): `STATIC` mobility, `BlockAll` collision profile.
+
+- Terrain: `STATIC`, `CTF_UseComplexAsSimple` (forced by `UGigLineAssetTools` at build time, saved on the asset — the flag lives on the `UStaticMesh`/`UBodySetup`, not the map).
+
+- Buildings: `STATIC`, simple collision (convex hull from mesh).
+
+- Rule: the collision flag must be saved on the asset. Saving only the `.umap` silently reverts it.
+
+## Lighting
+
+- Dynamic-only: `r.AllowStaticLighting=False`. All lights are `MOVABLE`.
+
+- Fixed daytime rig: directional light (sun, −62° pitch), sky light, exponential height fog, post-process volume with fixed exposure.
+
+- Rationale: avoids "LIGHTING NEEDS TO BE REBUILT" warnings; no bake step; the scene never changes time of day.
+
+## Materials
+
+- All materials authored in Unreal, not carried from Blender (FBX import loses diffuse colours).
+
+- World-space-noise blend nodes for cheap procedural variation (asphalt grain, concrete speckle, stucco roughness).
+
+- Instance parameters where tunable (e.g. wetness, ageing).
+
+## Geographic data provenance
+
+- OSM extract is layout data only — not authoritative for façade, height, or pavement detail.
+
+- DEM from 3DEP 1 m; elevation verified against cross-sections in `Geo/verification/`.
+
+- Reference photography (local, gitignored) drives manual façade work.
+
+## QA harness
+
+- `-qaselftest`: core ticker (not world timer) so pause cannot freeze the test that proves pause works.
+
+- `GigLine SIM` / `GigLine GROUND`: TEMP diagnostic logging, to be removed before release tag.
+
+- Screenshot approval: human must tick `Screenshots/README.md` before visual work is marked done.
+
+# Architecture Decisions
+
+## ADR-1: Dynamic-only lighting for the demo
+
+- **Context**: The demo is a fixed daytime scene. Stationary lights demand a lighting build and produce "LIGHTING NEEDS TO BE REBUILT" warnings.
+
+- **Decision**: `r.AllowStaticLighting=False`, all lights `MOVABLE`.
+
+- **Consequences**: No bake step, no warning, simpler iteration. Slightly higher GPU cost per frame (no baked shadows) — acceptable for the demo scope.
+
+## ADR-2: Materials authored in Unreal, not imported from Blender
+
+- **Context**: FBX→Unreal import maps all Blender diffuse colours to white. Flat colour materials do not survive the pipeline.
+
+- **Decision**: Build all materials (asphalt, concrete, stucco, façade stone, road paint) directly in Unreal with procedural nodes.
+
+- **Consequences**: Materials cannot be previewed in Blender look-dev. Must round-trip to Unreal for visual check. But: full PBR control, world-space noise, no import surprise.
+
+## ADR-3: Complex-as-simple collision on terrain via C++ helper
+
+- **Context**: UE 5.8 removed `bUseComplexAsSimpleCollision`. Python cannot set `CollisionTraceFlag` on `StaticMesh`/`BodySetup` at all. The Interchange default is bbox-only simple collision, which placed an invisible lid 8 m above the street.
+
+- **Decision**: `UGigLineAssetTools::SetComplexCollisionAsSimple` (C++) forces `CTF_UseComplexAsSimple` and saves the asset.
+
+- **Consequences**: One C++ helper class. The flag must be saved on the asset (not just the map). No Python workaround exists.
+
+## ADR-4: Reset captures StartLocation on first grounded frame
+
+- **Context**: `BeginPlay` captures `StartLocation` at the PlayerStart, which is above grade (Z 600) so the capsule does not spawn embedded. Every reset dropped the player 1.4 m back into the air.
+
+- **Decision**: Repeating 0.25 s timer captures `StartLocation` once the character reports `IsMovingOnGround()`, then clears itself.
+
+- **Consequences**: Reset is correct. A one-shot timer at 2 s is wrong (fires after walking begins, records mid-stride position).
+
+## ADR-5: Core ticker for QA self-test, not world timer
+
+- **Context**: Pausing the game stops world timers. A timer-driven test freezes exactly when it proves pause works.
+
+- **Decision**: `FTSTicker::GetCoreTicker()` drives the `-qaselftest` harness.
+
+- **Consequences**: Test runs even while paused. Must be enabled explicitly (`-qaselftest`), never in normal play.
+
+## ADR-6: South = +Y, north = −Y in Unreal
+
+- **Context**: The street mesh established this convention: `Sidewalk_North` has Y range −1912..−1053, `Sidewalk_South` has +718..+1447.
+
+- **Decision**: Adopt it project-wide. Never place a building by assumption; always verify against a street mesh or neighbour.
+
+- **Consequences**: Matches Blender’s north→+Y after the Y-flip in the `ue_metric_v1` export preset.
+
+## ADR-7: Headless Blender via bpy scripts, not MCP
+
+- **Context**: Blender skill packs assume an MCP server; the project does not run one.
+

+# Quality Requirements
+
+## Quality Requirements Overview
+
+| Category | Requirement | Priority |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Performance efficiency | 60 FPS at 2560×1440, documented preset, no frame generation | 1 |
+| Reliability / Terrain | Zero raycast holes across sidewalks and carriageway (84-sample transect) | 1 |
+| Accuracy / Fidelity | Building placement matches reference photography within ~1 m | 2 |
+| Accuracy / Fidelity | Street scale (lane width, sidewalk width) within ~10 cm of measured profile | 2 |
+| Usability | WASD + mouse look, jump, reset (R), pause (Escape) — no tutorial needed | 2 |
+| Maintainability | Fresh checkout builds with documented engine installation | 2 |
+| Portability | Linux build packages and runs; Windows build ships | 3 |
+
+## Quality Scenarios
+
+| ID | Source/Stimulus | Response | Metric |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| QS-1 | Player walks both sides of the demo | No fall-through, character stays at ground Z | 0 raycast holes in 84-sample transect |
+| QS-2 | Player holds W for 2 s on flat road | Character moves forward | ≥ 200 cm displacement, Z constant within ±5 cm |
+| QS-3 | Player presses R | Character teleports to spawn | < 100 cm from `StartLocation` |
+| QS-4 | Player presses Escape | Game pauses, cursor appears | `IsGamePaused()` = true |
+| QS-5 | Player presses Escape while paused | Game unpauses, cursor hides | `IsGamePaused()` = false |
+| QS-6 | Game runs on dev workstation at 1440p | Frame rate stable | ≥ 60 FPS, 99th percentile ≥ 55 FPS |
+| QS-7 | Fresh checkout + engine install | Build succeeds | Exit code 0, runnable binary produced |
+
+# Risks and Technical Debts
+
+| ID | Risk / Debt | Priority | Mitigation |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| R-1 | Terrain bbox proxy misdiagnosed as fall-through — already fixed, but the root-cause path (Interchange defaults to simple collision) could recur on reimport | High | `UGigLineAssetTools` runs in the build script; always reassert complex-as-simple after any reimport. Documented in `MEMORY.md` and ADR-3. |
+| R-2 | Blosm 3Dsimple on Blender 5.2 — worked around, not resolved; `3Drealistic` mode untested | Medium | Pin Blosm 2.7.28 and Blender 5.2 LTS; test realistic mode before depending on it. |
+| R-3 | Kerb height is an assumption (DEM does not resolve it) | Medium | Record the assumption in `Geo/verification/`; measure from reference photography if possible; mark as unresolved until verified. |
+| R-5 | `GigLine SIM` / `GigLine GROUND` TEMP diagnostic logging still in `GigLineCharacter.cpp` | Medium | Strip behind a cvar or remove entirely before the `v0.1.0` release tag. |
+| TD-1 | Materials are Unreal-only — no Blender preview round-trip | Low | Accepted (ADR-2). Look-dev happens in UE; screenshot review catches issues. |
+| TD-2 | No CI pipeline — all builds and QA are manual on the dev workstation | Low | Acceptable for `0.x`. CI is a `0.3.0+` concern. |
+
+# Glossary
+
+| Term | Definition |
+| --- | --- |
+| Blosm | Blender add-on (2.7.28) that imports OSM data as 3D building and street blockouts. Used for layout only — not authoritative for façade or height. |
+| PIE | Play In Editor — an Unreal Editor feature that runs the current map as a live game session inside the editor window, with full game code, input, and physics, without packaging a build. Used for interactive verification (walk, reset, pause) before the scripted QA self-test. |
+| Complex-as-simple collision | `CTF_UseComplexAsSimple`: Unreal collision mode where the render mesh triangles are used as the collision surface, instead of a simplified proxy. Required for terrain so the player walks on the actual ground shape. |
+| DEM | Digital Elevation Model. 3DEP 1 m resolution GeoTIFF covering the demo bounds. Source of terrain heightfield. |
+| El Capitan | El Capitan Entertainment Centre, 6838 Hollywood Blvd. The hero building of the demo. |
+| Enhanced Input | Unreal’s modern input system (UE 5+). Uses Input Actions (`IA_*`) and Input Mapping Contexts (`IMC_*`) instead of legacy axis/action bindings. |
+| EPSG:26911 | UTM zone 11N, the projected CRS used for the demo area. Local origin recorded in `Geo/`. |
+| Hero façade | The detailed, reference-calibrated model of the El Capitan building frontage. |
+| MPFB | MakeHuman Plugin for Blender (2.0.18). Generates parametric human base meshes with rigs and baked materials. |
+| PlayerStart | Unreal actor that defines where the player pawn spawns. Positioned above grade so the capsule does not embed in the floor on spawn. |
+| QA self-test | The `-qaselftest` command-line switch that runs an automated behaviour check (walk, reset, pause, ground transect) via a core ticker. |
+| Site | The terrain, road, sidewalks, kerbs, and crossing markings — the ground-level infrastructure of the demo area. |
+| Squash merge | Git merge strategy that compresses all branch commits into one commit on `main`, keeping a linear history. |
+| Swept transect | A QA technique that raycasts vertically at regular intervals along a path (e.g. every 200 cm along both sidewalks and the carriageway) and counts holes (misses). Zero holes = the block is fully walkable. |
+| UE | Unreal Engine — Epic Games' real-time 3D creation platform (version 5.8.4 in this project). Comprises the Unreal Editor (including PIE, content browser, viewport, blueprint editor), a C++ game framework, and runtime systems for rendering (Vulkan RHI on Linux), physics (Chaos), and input (Enhanced Input). The game project is `GigLine.uproject`; game code is a single C++ module in `Game/GigLine/Source/GigLine/`. |
+| World Partition | Unreal's world composition system for large open-world levels. Not yet used in `0.1.0` but planned for `0.3.0+` driving routes. |
+| Y convention | In Unreal, south = +Y, north = −Y (confirmed from street mesh orientation). In Blender, north = +Y; the `ue_metric_v1` export preset flips Y. |

+| `File format is not supported` when reopening a `.blend` | `hero_facade_build.py --out` writes the **FBX**; putting the `.blend` path there overwrites it with FBX bytes | `--out /tmp/…fbx --save-blend Art/…blend --report Art/…json` |

+# ODbL review — OpenStreetMap-derived data in the shipped build
+
+Status: **decision recorded 2026-11-08** (closes the TODO "Review ODbL obligations" item).
+
+## 1. What OSM data the project touches
+
+| Use | Where it lives | In the shipped build? |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Raw OSM extract (Hollywood block, 2026-11-06) | `Geo/raw/osm-api-map-2026-11-06.osm` (+2 building ways `.json`), committed | No — dev data only, not packed |
+| Blosm blockout geometry (streets, building footprints, sidewalks) | Crates/site meshes derived from the extract, imported to Unreal | **Yes** — the walkable block geometry derives from OSM layout |
+| USGS 3DEP DEM elevation | `Geo/raw/dem-3dep-1m-26911-2026-11-06.tif` | Yes — but public domain (US Government work), independent of ODbL |
+
+So the shipped build contains **buildings, streets and sidewalks whose footprints come from OSM data** (layout geometry). That geometry is a **derivative database/knowledge extract** under the ODbL framing.
+
+## 2. ODbL obligations (Open Database Licence 1.0)
+
+ODbL = Open Database Licence (Open Data Commons, version 1.0). The OSM community contract uses it for the OpenStreetMap database.
+
+Key obligations when you **redistribute or produce a derivative database**:
+
+1. **Attribution** — credit the database, with a notice visible to users, and provide a link to the licence.
+2. **Share-alike** — a derivative database (including a "Produced Work" from it) must be offered under ODbL, and changes must be made available.
+3. **Keep the data open** — do not add technical or legal restrictions that prevent others from using the database under ODbL.
+4. **No database right / extraction limits** — substantial extraction/use must follow the licence's "extraction and reuse" terms.
+
+Important nuance: ODbL governs the **database** (the OSM data as a collection and the knowledge it encodes). **Separate creative content** — art, code, models authored by the project — is not a "database" and does not carry the share-alike obligation. The game's own code and artist-authored geometry are project-owned (CC0 per `LICENSE`).
+
+## 3. Where the project stands
+
+| Obligation | Held by | Evidence |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Attribution in the game | **Yes** — on-screen credit every frame | `AGigLineHUD` draws "© OpenStreetMap contributors" and "Data © OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL 1.0 — openstreetmap.org/copyright" bottom-left (`GigLineHUD.h` lines 29/33) |
+| Attribution in the repo | **Yes** — provenance + licence recorded | `THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md` Geographic data table; `Geo/manifests/2026-11-06-osm-api-map.md` |
+| Licence text available | **Yes** — link + notice | HUD link to openstreetmap.org/copyright (ODbL); THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES points at ODbL 1.0 |
+| Source data available (share-alike enabler) | **Yes** — the exact extract is committed, with bbox/date/hash | `Geo/raw/osm-api-map-2026-11-06.osm` + manifest |
+| Derivative database offered under ODbL | **Recorded as a decision** — see §4 | This document |
+
+## 4. Decision: posture for the derived geometry
+
+The OSM-derived block geometry (streets, footprints, sidewalks) is treated as a **Produced Work / derivative database** of the OpenStreetMap database.
+
+- The **share-alike obligation is accepted for the data layer only**. The release must carry: (a) the on-screen attribution (implemented), (b) the ODbL link (implemented), and (c) an offer of the OSM source for the geometry — satisfied by the committed raw extract plus its manifest.
+- **Project creative work (code, shaders, artist-authored façades, textures) is NOT under ODbL.** It remains project-owned CC0 (see `LICENSE`) and carries no share-alike obligation. Only geometry that can be argued to encode OSM database facts (streets, building footprints, sidewalk layouts) is in scope.
+- **No new obligation is created by the DEM**: 3DEP is US Government public domain and is independent of ODbL.
+- **Do not** import OSM imagery/panoramas as textures (OSM map tiles or aerial imagery are separately licensed); the project already treats OSM as layout only (`Docs/licensing.md` rule 3).
+
+Release checklist items this lands:
+
+- [x] In-game attribution shown (HUD).
+- [x] ODbL notice + link (HUD + THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES).
+- [x] Source OSM data committed with provenance (manifest: date, bbox, SHA-256).
+- [x] Posture recorded here for the release gate.
+
+## 5. Remaining (tracked separately)
+
+- **Blosm add-on licence** is still `pending` in THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES (tool-only, not distributed — must be checked once, not a release blocker for ODbL).
+- Façade signage/trademarks: separate rights from the photograph, own the geometry; not an ODbL question (see THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES "Reference photography" rules).
+
+## 6. Sources checked
+
+- ODbL text: <https://opendatacommons.org/licenses/odbl/1-0/>
+- OSM licence summary: <https://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright>
+- ISPRS/ODbL practice notes on derived game geometry from OSM footprints (objective standard: attribution + produced-work offer, share-alike limited to the data layer).
+
+Not reviewed here (out of scope for this item): engine redistribution terms (Epic), MPFB asset terms, street-prop reuse terms — all tracked in `THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md`.

+
+### Deliberate deviations recorded
+
+- **North/south building surfaces are flat blockouts** (bloblike, no façade detail). Detail texturing/façade style is the planned `0.1.4` (Proper building façades) work; placement and massing are what this check verifies.
+- **Kerb upstand 0.13 m as built vs 0.15 m assumed**; the DEM cannot resolve a kerb — tracked in `0.1.1` (Kerb height assumption).
+- **Sidewalk surface detail** (railings, pavers, domes) not modelled — outside `0.1.0` scope.
+- **Crossing ramps are kerb flushes, not graded ramps** — the `0.1.1` Crossing ramp gradient item.
+- Site identity (the neoclassical hero with motto band) matches the 2009 façade photograph and the 1922 Masonic elevation within blockout fidelity.
+
+Pre-check method: `Tools/judge_screenshot.py` (vision model) flagged the simplified flat surfaces as "unexpected" — those flags are the deliberate deviations above, not placement errors. Final verdict is by human review of the shots in `Screenshots/demo/`.
+
+## `0.1.0` — Collision and packaging — audit note (2026-11-08)
+
+Run on the packaged build (`GigLineQA`, Development, Vulkan SM5) with `-qaselftest`.
+
+- **Transect (holes/gaps):** 1456 samples over 16 rows — lane centres **plus the kerb/road/sidewalk seam Ys** (−1382, −1053, +718, +1047 and neighbours) and X −20000..−2000. Result **0 holes**. (The old 84-sample check covered only 3 lane centres; the seam rows are what this check adds.)
+- **Invisible-wall probe:** horizontal traces 30 m long, grounded at 160 cm above the local ground, along the road and both seam rows. Result **0/35 blocking hits inside 21 m** — no invisible walls or misplaced blockers in the street envelope.
+- **Facade occlusion probe:** from the road centre, 40 m traces sideways at walking height toward each frontage, required only where the map stages a building (the spans are listed in `AGigLineCharacter` and mirror `Tools/ue_build_demo_map.py`). Result **0/9 directions without a blocking wall** — the player cannot walk through the hero or the frontage. This probe found the hero façade had **no simple collision** at all (complex-only, so traces and capsule sweeps passed through it); it is now `UseComplexAsSimple`. Auto-generated convex hulls were tried first and rejected: on a 95-part, 26 m façade they bulged into the street (the wall probe went 0/35 → 2/35). (First pass used a fixed Z 160 start; the street is at Z ~366, so the probe started inside the earth and reported every row as a dist-0 blocker. Grounding the probe fixed that measurement bug.)
+- **Walk / reset / pause:** 761 cm in 2 s (Z steady 456), reset 0 cm, pause `IsGamePaused()=1`, unpause 0 — all PASS.
+- Packaging: the packaged build launches, reaches gameplay, and the QA run quits cleanly. The `GigLineShotActor` screenshot rounds are suppressed under `-qaselftest` so they cannot quit the run before the audit phases.
+- Caveat recorded: ground Z extremes (−12 m / 3000 cm) are trace-start/terrain-edge artifacts of the widened extent, not walkable holes — the walkable corridor is continuous (walk + transect both PASS).
+
+## `0.1.0` — 60 FPS at 1440p — record (2026-11-08)
+
+**Build under test:** packaged `GigLineQA` Development, UE **5.8.4**, Vulkan SM5, NVIDIA 615.78.08 (RTX 5070 Ti), Bazzite, Ryzen 7 7700X, 64 GB RAM.
+
+**Documented quality preset** (applied via `-ExecCmds`): all scalability groups at 3 = Epic — `sg.ViewDistanceQuality 3, sg.ShadowQuality 3, sg.GlobalIlluminationQuality 3, sg.ReflectionQuality 3, sg.PostProcessQuality 3, sg.TextureQuality 3, sg.EffectsQuality 3, sg.FoliageQuality 3, sg.ShadingQuality 3`.
+
+**Upscaling state (recorded from the run):** `r.AntiAliasingMethod=4` → **TSR on**, default screen percentage, `r.VSync=0` (**off**), frame generation **off/unavailable** (`r.Streamline.FrameGeneration.Mode` absent → -999).
+
+**Route:** the deterministic `-qaselftest` traversal — spawn `(-13336,-1150,456)`, walk forward (+Y) into the block for 2 s. Frame times are captured every frame over that route (829 frames), not a single sample.
+
+**Result at 2560×1440:**
+
+| Metric          | Value                 |
+| --------------- | --------------------- |

+| Max             | 4.00 ms               |
+
+**Verdict: PASS** — worst-case p99 is ~3 ms (≈330 fps), far above the 60 FPS target without frame generation.
+
+**Variance note:** two back-to-back runs measured ~9.2 ms (≈108 fps) when another game instance / busy compositor overlapped the capture; repeated clean runs (windowed and fullscreen, Wayland and X11 drivers, window focused) all measured ~2.4–2.5 ms.

+
+## Appendix — what was checked, and what was broken
+
+### Verified
+
+- **Behaviour**, packaged build, `-qaselftest`: walk 761 cm in 2 s (Z steady 456), reset 0 cm, pause/unpause, seam transect 1456 samples / **0 holes**, wall probe **0/35**, façade occlusion probe **0/9** — all PASS. Run twice: the harness is time-based and one loaded run reported a false failure (`walk 246 cm`, `pause FAIL`), an immediate re-run passed — re-run before believing a single FAIL.
+- **Placement**, probed from the live map against `Geo/verification/2026-11-06-el-capitan-block.md`: 6922 −24276…−17700, 6902 −17749…−14591, **hero −14644…−12028 between them**, theatre −12082…−8210, 6822 / 6806 / 6800 −7854…−1437, TCL −22889…−18442, Tussaud's −27071…−22799. Blockout affine residual **0.0 cm**.
+- **Budgets**: hero 148 parts / 3 044 tris · kit 16 meshes × 12 tris · 625 kit actors ≈ 7 500 tris · 8 × 512² textures (196 KB) · 67 tool tests pass.
+- **Topology**: every kit piece manifold, no loose geometry.
+
+### Defects found this cycle
+
+Every one of these rendered convincingly; the placement ones were caught by coordinate probes, not by looking.
+
+| Sev | Defect | Root cause |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Blocker | Frontage shifted ≈119 m X / 2.4 m Y, hero outside its gap | Blockout regenerated without `--origin` |
+| Blocker | Kit placed ~12 km from its buildings | Used mesh-local bbox; actors carry the offset |
+| Blocker | Marquee on the far side of the boulevard | Blender +Y is Unreal −Y |
+| Major | Marquee canopy 5 cm above the pavement | Absolute Z; pavement is 4.56 m above datum |
+| Major | Window bays invisible, inside the solid wall | Piece modelled entirely at +Y |
+| Major | Glazing wasn't glass | Grey `M_Kit_*` from the FBX import, never overridden |
+| Major | Hero windows floated 1.44 m in front of the wall | Wrong Y in the builder |
+| Major | Parapet medallions were discs on the coping | Built with the Z-axis cylinder helper |
+| Major | Hero had no usable collision | Complex-only; traces use simple |
+| Minor | "No smoothing group information" on every import | `mesh_smooth_type="OFF"` in six exporters |
+| Minor | `save_map()` returned False silently | LFS `.umap` read-only, importer never chmod'd |
+| Minor | North-buildings import silently no-op | Missing `import sys` |
+| Minor | Kit folder held 24 assets (8 orphan materials) | No stale-asset sweep |
+| Minor | Edge-density metric counted PIL's border ring | `FIND_EDGES` leaves a 128 ring |
+| Minor | QA wall probe grazed the theatre wall | Scan row 1 cm from the building line |
+
+### Limitations worth knowing
+
+- Kit pieces are boxes; dentil spacing, abacus and plinth dimensions are recorded assumptions, not measurements.
+- Textures are generated, not authored — no decals, signage text or weathering.
+- The vision pre-check stays advisory: it has rejected shots the owner approved.
+- The low edge ratios in the metrics are partly structural — a wide block view against a tight façade crop always scores low. Weigh the images, not the scores.
+- Performance has not been re-measured since `0.1.0`; the 625 kit actors are unmeasured (tracked in `TODO.md` under `0.1.5`).

   - **Launcher build**: install the Linux Epic Games Launcher, download the pinned engine version, install to the DATA volume, and disable auto-update so the pin holds.
-  - **Source build**: clone the pinned `release` branch from the Epic Games GitHub organisation, then `./Setup.sh`, `./GenerateProjectFiles.sh`, `make -j16`. Budget 120–200 GB and a multi-hour first build on 16 threads.
