# TODO.md
|
||
|
||
Actionable task list for this project. Planned work and progress marks live here; supporting observations are in [MEMORY.md](MEMORY.md). Milestone goals, scope, and release gates are in [ROADMAP.md](ROADMAP.md).
|
||
|
||
## Conventions
|
||
|
||
- Mark items **open** (`- [ ]`), **active/in progress** (`- [A]`, **deferred** `- [D]`), or **done** (`- [x]`). Keep the marks accurate.
|
||
- A level-three (`###`) section being worked on carries `- active - <sessionId>` (and optionally the branch name) in its heading. Remove the suffix when you stop.
|
||
- When all steps in a version section are done: write a `CHANGELOG.md` entry, then remove the version section from this file.
|
||
- Release gate: a version is tagged only on the owner's explicit go-ahead once its release checks pass, not automatically when the checkboxes close.
|
||
- Every task section carries a `**Suggested skills:**` line naming the packs to load before starting. Load them with the `skill` tool — `blender-director` for asset pipelines, `ue-project-context` for engine work, then the packs named — and use them as method guides, since this project runs Blender and Unreal headless from scripts.
|
||
|
||
## Toolchain — end-to-end asset check (done 2026-11-10)
|
||
|
||
> [!IMPORTANT] Plan for 0.3.1 before other patches
|
||
|
||
See [toolchain notes](MEMORY.md#toolchain--end-to-end-asset-check-done-2026-11-10).
|
||
|
||
**Suggested skills:** no pack covers the local ComfyUI, judge or driver tooling — work from `Tools/README.md`, `Tools/review/` and the toolchain notes in `MEMORY.md`.
|
||
|
||
- [x] Group the sixty tools by sandbox: `Tools/unreal/`, `Tools/blender/`, `Tools/review/`, `Tools/gen/`, `Tools/input/`, with the layout documented in `Tools/README.md`.
|
||
- [x] Empty both maps and verify that no actors remain using `Tools/unreal/ue_recreate_maps.py`.
|
||
- [x] Clear the whole level in both builders.
|
||
- [x] Two-model judge with reconciliation, and a two-checkpoint texture generator that compares before choosing.
|
||
- [x] Texture generation through the documented Stability Matrix workflows (`texture` subcommand).
|
||
- [x] Local ComfyUI documented, including "start Stability Matrix first" and the per-model licence rules.
|
||
- [x] Driver hardening: unlink result files before each step, stream child output to a per-step log, refuse to start while another editor is alive.
|
||
- [ ] **Make the judge useful again.**
|
||
- [ ] Examine comfyui tool to extend judge coverage or improve its scoring mechanism.
|
||
- [ ] Wire the e2e driver into the release checks once the judge can be trusted.

||
## Vehicle physics — Chaos rig (own task, from `0.3.0`)
|
||
|
||
> [!IMPORTANT] Plan for 0.3.1 before other patches
|
||
|
||
See [historical notes](MEMORY.md#vehicle-physics--chaos-rig-own-task-from-030).
|
||
|
||
### Tasks
|
||
|
||
**Suggested skills:** `ue-physics-collision`, `ue-module-build-system` (plugin enablement), `ue-actor-component-architecture`, `ue-gameplay-framework`, `ue-input-system`, `ue-testing-debugging`, `cpp`; Blender side `vehicle-artist`, `collision-proxy`, `export-pipeline`, `unreal-export`. No pack covers Chaos Vehicles — the notes in this section and the `ChaosVehiclesPlugin` headers are the reference.
|
||
|
||
- [x] Give `SK_Vehicle_Sedan` a physics asset whose single chassis body matches the car's box. **Resolved 2026-11-10** — two causes, both fixed: `ChaosVehiclesPlugin` was not enabled in `.uproject`, so `CreateVehicle()` never ran (`0 wheels`); and `BuildPhysicsAsset` never set `Body->PhysicsType`, so the body stayed `PhysType_Default` (follow owner) and never simulated. Enabling the plugin (`5e328f5`) and setting `PhysicsType = PhysType_Simulated` (`927e937`) make the pawn **simulate, settle at Z 77 cm, and drive** (`-drivetest` moved 36.3 m).
|
||
- [x] Find what writes the actor transform in `DemoMap` but not in `ReviewMap`. **Resolved** — it was never a transform writer: the body was not simulating (see above), so the "float" and "teleport" were the unsimulated chassis being driven by the regular rigid-body solver instead of the Chaos async solver.
|
||
- [x] Confirm `Wheels.Num()` becomes 4 once the vehicle is created; log it at the settle check. **4 wheels** once the plugin is enabled (`setups=4 wheels=4`).
|
||
- [ ] Re-stage the pawn, re-add enter/exit and the driving route. **Drives backwards** (`-96.5 km/h`): the next bug is the reverse direction — rear wheels `bAffectedByEngine`, engine torque sign, or wheel bone axle orientation — not the physics setup.
|
||
|
||
## Hero facade rework — from the ReviewMap review (own task)
|
||
|
||
See [historical notes](MEMORY.md#hero-facade-rework--from-the-reviewmap-review-own-task).

|
||
|
||
- [x] Confirm the hero captures frame `Hero_Facade`.
|
||
- [x] Seat the elevation detail in front of the mass.
|
||
- [x] Remove the blank lintel band across the portals.
|
||

|
||
- [ ] 6800 Lee Drug and 6806–6820: add wall lettering as a decal, a moulded parapet profile, richer corner-tower stepping, and portrait panel textures.

||
- [ ] Acquire references for 6822 Budget and record the sources checked in `Geo/`; retain its bare blockout until references are acquired.
|
||
- [ ] Re-shoot 6806–6820 and 6800 from the south sidewalk.
|
||
- [ ] 6902, 6922 and the remaining south frontage.
|
||
- [ ] North side: TCL Chinese Theatre and Madame Tussaud's façades from their reference sets.
|
||
- [ ] Reconcile every modelled height against `Geo/tools/block_height_report.py` and record the source per building.

|
||
### Materials, UVs and performance
|
||
|
||
**Suggested skills:** `materials`, `texture-workflow`, `uv-workflow`, `lookdev`, `rendering`, `collision-proxy`, `lod-pipeline`, `asset-optimization`, `ue-materials-rendering`, `ue-testing-debugging`.
|
||
|
||
- [ ] **Measured material library**, including the hero's stone: stucco, painted render, ashlar, brick, terrazzo, glazing, bronze and steel trim, with albedo and roughness taken from the photographs rather than guessed; one Unreal material instance per surface type.
|
||
- [ ] **Texel-density rule** per building class, applied through modular UVs; lightmap UVs where required.
|
||
- [ ] **LOD chain and collision proxies** per building: UCX proxies for blocking volume, detail geometry non-colliding.
|
||
- [ ] Re-validate the 60 FPS floor at 1440p once the detail lands, and record the cost of the pass.
|
||
|
||
### Release checks
|
||
|
||
- [ ] Every building with a photograph has a review shot measured against it, with silhouette and proportion deltas recorded in `Screenshots/README.md`.
|
||
- [ ] No building carries an unverified façade; blockouts without references are listed as such in `TODO.md`.
|
||
- [ ] Every building has a collision proxy and at least one LOD.
|
||
- [ ] No surface left on a placeholder material.
|
||
- [ ] `THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md` covers every photographic reference used in this pass.
|
||
- [ ] Performance target still met at 1440p.
|
||
- [ ] Tag `v0.9.0` and write `CHANGELOG.md` entry; then remove this section.
|
||
|
||
## 0.10.0 — Feature freeze, public beta, license and build audit (weeks 35–38)
|
||
|
||
### Freeze and audit
|
||
|
||
**Suggested skills:** `ue-project-context` (refresh before the audit), `ue-module-build-system` (reproducible build), `ue-testing-debugging`, `qa-review`, `de-ai-writing` (`Docs/` prose).
|
||
|
||
- [ ] Freeze features; document the freeze in `CHANGELOG.md`.
|
||
- [ ] Produce a public beta build for testers.
|
||
- [ ] Complete license audit: `THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md`, all MPFB assets, textures, animations, vehicles, audio.
|
||
- [ ] Review Epic distribution requirements before publishing.
|
||
- [ ] Verify a fresh checkout builds and packages reproducibly.
|
||
|
||
### Release checks
|
||
|
||
- [ ] Beta feedback triaged; blockers logged for `0.10.x`.
|
||
- [ ] Tag `v0.10.0` and write `CHANGELOG.md` entry; then remove this section.
|
||
|
||
## 0.10.1 — Blocker fixes (patch)
|
||
|
||
### Patch tasks
|
||
|
||
**Suggested skills:** `ue-testing-debugging` plus the pack for the subsystem each blocker lives in (see the mapping in `AGENTS.md`); `cpp` for non-engine code.
|
||
|
||
- [ ] Fix blockers reported during the public beta.
|
||
- [ ] Tag `v0.10.1` and write `CHANGELOG.md` entry; then remove this section.
|
||
|
||
## 0.10.2 — Regression fixes (patch)
|
||
|
||
### Patch tasks
|
||
|
||
**Suggested skills:** `ue-testing-debugging`, plus the owning subsystem's pack, and `cpp` where the regression is in game code; check `MEMORY.md` for how the original defect was found.
|
||
|
||
- [ ] Fix regressions introduced by `0.9.x` fixes.
|
||
- [ ] Tag `v0.10.2` and write `CHANGELOG.md` entry; then remove this section.
|
||
|
||
## 0.10.3 — Documentation fixes (patch)
|
||
|
||
### Patch tasks
|
||
|
||
**Suggested skills:** `de-ai-writing` (prose), `ue-project-context` (verify the project facts it records), `ue-module-build-system` (verify the build and checkout steps documented).
|
||
|
||
- [ ] Update all `Docs/` for accuracy before `1.0.0`.
|
||
- [ ] Tag `v0.10.3` and write `CHANGELOG.md` entry; then remove this section.
|
||
|
||
## 1.0.0 — Stable neighborhood-scale walking/driving release (weeks 35–40)
|
||
|
||
### Final release
|
||
|
||
**Suggested skills:** `qa-review`, `references` (final visual-match sweep), `ue-testing-debugging`, `de-ai-writing` (`Docs/`), `ue-project-context` refresh.
|
||
|
||
- [ ] Complete final acceptance sweep across all `0.x` features.
|
||
- [ ] Confirm the stable, agreed game scope is met (neighborhood-scale walking and driving).
|
||
- [ ] Final build, documentation, and licensing verification.
|
||
- [ ] Tag `v1.0.0` and write `CHANGELOG.md` entry; then remove this section.
