Character and movement pass

NPC characters
- Articulated rig (hips/knees, shoulders/elbows/hands) replaces rigid capsules;
  the walk cycle bends knees and elbows and flees with a longer stride.
- Layered outfits (jacket/vest/coat/dress), extended accessories and hand items
  (bag, umbrella, phone, camera, clipboard, cup), face details and five hair
  silhouettes, all deterministic per profile seed.
- Idle behaviour layers (phone, clipboard, crossed arms, look-around), breathing
  and weight shift; escalation raises hands or points, and noticed NPCs turn
  toward the guard.
- Reaction symbols above the head (!!, ?!, !, ?), door-queue offsets assigned by
  GameManager, three LOD tiers with hysteresis and a billboard impostor.
- smoke_npc_budget.gd: 16 avatars = 534 meshes, ~6.9 ms average (50 ms budget).

Player movement
- Separate accel/decel, step-up assist for kerbs and the entrance steps, and a
  forward-axis fix: W was inverted (get_axis(forward, back) is negative).
- Head bob, landing dip and precision-walk FOV, gated by persisted head-bob and
  invert-Y settings; precision chip and tick; surface-aware footsteps and a
  landing cue forwarded to AudioFeedback.
- Gamepad support (sticks, deadzone, face buttons, bumpers), a control legend
  that follows the active device, and named actions for the remaining keys.
- Key/button remapping in Settings, persisted as input_bindings and applied by
  InputBindings (mouse and gamepad axes are never removed).
- smoke_movement.gd (windowed): climbs the steps, checks precision speed, chip,
  footsteps and landing; new 11-precision-walk capture and catalogue entry.

Verification: headless 208/208, Python tooling 56/56, all 11 smokes pass,
compare 11 good / 0 bad, movement judge match. Version 0.5.0. Only optional
Future ideas remain in TODO.

-Each task is meant to be a small, reviewable slice with its own verification.
-
-## Better NPC Characters
-
-### Appearance and rig
-
-- [ ] Replace the rigid capsule limbs with an articulated rig: shoulder, elbow, hip, and knee
-      joints, so a walk cycle can bend knees and swing arms instead of rotating whole capsules.
-- [ ] Add layered clothing: jacket over shirt, hi-vis vest, security uniform, dress/skirt, and
-      coat, with deterministic per-profile colourways and material roles.
-- [ ] Extend the accessory catalogue: bag, umbrella, phone, camera, clipboard, headphones, and a
-      coffee cup; attach them to the correct hand/back socket.
-- [ ] Add face and hair variety: several hair silhouettes, beards, hats, eye/brow shapes, age and
-      height ranges, and a small set of face textures or decal planes so heads are not identical.
-- [ ] Keep appearance deterministic per `(profile, seed)` and add a test that the same seed
-      produces the same outfit while different types stay recognisable.
-
-### Animation and staging
-
-- [ ] Add an idle layer: breathing, weight shift, occasional look-around, phone check, and
-      arms-crossed, blended with the current walk and reaction states.
-- [ ] Add conversation gestures: facing the guard when addressed, talking hand movement, nodding,
-      backing away, and pointing, driven by the existing reaction/escalation events.
-- [ ] Improve the walk cycle: stride length tied to speed, foot planting without sliding, and a
-      distinct hurry/flee gait that matches `FLEE_SPEED`.
-- [ ] Stage a door queue: waiting offsets, one-at-a-time approach, no overlapping capsules, and a
-      step-aside after the admission decision.
-- [ ] Make reactions readable at a distance with body language plus a short icon/label
-      (rubberneck, panic, calm, angry) so crowd state is legible without the debug panel.
-
-### Performance and budgets
-
-- [ ] Add three LOD tiers (full rig, simplified mesh, billboard) with distance hysteresis, and
-      disable shadows for far tiers; keep the switch deterministic and testable.
-- [ ] Re-measure the live-NPC budget with the full rig at `MAX_LIVE_NPCS`, and add a perf smoke
-      that fails when frame time crosses the documented budget.
-- [ ] Add tests for animation state transitions (idle → walk → react) and for queue spacing at
-      the door.
-
-## Better Player Movement
-
-### Feel and handling
-
-- [ ] Split acceleration and deceleration in `guard_controller.gd` (faster stop than start, no
-      ice-skating), then tune `move_speed` and `accel` against a windowed feel pass.
-- [ ] Add step-up assist for kerbs and the entrance steps (about 0.3 m) and keep wall sliding
-      smooth so the guard does not stick on doorframes, railings, or prop colliders.
-- [ ] Add subtle head bob tied to stride and speed, a small FOV change in precision walk, and a
-      landing dip; expose a motion-sickness toggle in settings with persistence.
-- [ ] Give precision walk (Shift) visible feedback: a HUD state chip and an audio tick when it
-      engages, in addition to the slower speed.
-- [ ] Add surface-aware footsteps (concrete, asphalt, stone steps) with stride-synced timing and
-      a distinct landing sound, reusing the procedural audio helpers.
-
-### Input and accessibility
-
-- [ ] Add gamepad support: move/look actions, radial and action bindings, deadzone and look
-      sensitivity, with prompts that follow the active device.
-- [ ] Move the remaining hard-coded keys into `InputMap` actions and persist any remaps through
-      the settings panel (keyboard and gamepad).
-- [ ] Add a mouse-sensitivity and invert-Y setting if missing, and test the values survive a
-      settings save/load round trip.
-- [ ] Add movement tests: acceleration ramp, step-up height limit, precision-walk speed, wall
-      slide, and gamepad deadzone.
-- [ ] Run one windowed movement smoke per change above (walk the full block, climb the steps,
-      strafe along the wall) and capture a short screenshot set for the compare tool.
+The scheduled presentation pass is complete (see `DONE.md`). Only optional future ideas remain.
