Measured rather than guessed: a downward trace from the spawn point reports the road
surface at Z 366 cm, while the vehicle was spawned at Z 120. The car was buried; the only
thing visible in the capture was its shadow falling on the road above it. Spawn is now
Z 470, the camera aims at 430, and it settles at Z 470.
Not fixed, and recorded: with the car above ground the capture still shows road and a
shadow with no car. Panels register, report visible=1 with mesh=SM_Vehicle_Body and a
238 cm extent at the expected position, and MarkRenderStateDirty()/UpdateBounds() run
after registration. The shadow proves a collider is there; the visible geometry is not.
Screenshots/README.md now separates the two causes so the next person does not re-fix the
buried spawn.
