zwitschi a17e982561 fix(placement): character and car stand on the ground, not above it
Both floats had different causes and both were measured.

Character: the player start sat at Z 600 while the capsule settles at Z 561 on this
pavement - the QA self-test has been reporting that settle height all along - so the soles
hung 39 cm in the air. The start now uses the measured 561.

Car: the template's lowest geometry is exhaust and underbody, so grounding the model on its
whole bounding box left the tyres 4 cm above the origin. It is grounded on its WHEELS now.
The staged height is 342 rather than the traced road height of 366, because at 367 the
render still showed a gap: the trace and the visible road mesh disagree by about 25 cm at
that spot, and the number is recorded as empirical rather than derived.

Also adds a foot-contact log to the character at BeginPlay (actor Z, ground, capsule half,
mesh bottom, gap) so the next float is a measurement rather than a look.

Game

The Unreal project lives at Game/GigLine/GigLine.uproject once created. Nothing here yet.

What gets committed

  • Config/ — engine and project settings, including the quality presets used for release checks
  • Source/ — C++ modules
  • Content/ — 0.1.0 map, materials, meshes; LFS-tracked
  • GigLine.uproject

What does not

Binaries/, Intermediate/, Saved/, DerivedDataCache/ — all generated. .gitignore covers them; do not add exceptions.

Engine

Installed outside the repository. Its path and exact version are recorded in ../Docs/toolchain.md. Nothing in this directory may assume a machine-specific engine path; the documented build procedure is ../Docs/build.md.
