Hide the tourist photo-pose bag outside camera poses, flatten the backpack straps onto the chest, rebuild the gear GLB/AO and publish the before/after NPC sheet.
Add a neutral 48-frame character contact sheet, acceptance criteria and ranked baseline gaps, plus repeatable sheet/comparison tooling. No character GLB or runtime mesh changes.
Add deterministic captures 14-21 for the remaining screen-design states, fix the panel/button layout issues they exposed, and record 21/21 compare and judge results. Bump the source to 0.9.3 and move the completed milestone to DONE.md.
- Boot the real scene and verify inspection allow/deny, normal vs emergency radio, Help filtering, wand allow/deny and review return-to-menu.
- Document the flow coverage and smoke command; mark the 0.9.3 end-to-end audit complete.
- Measure and cap the HUD target chip after each font-scale change; clip HUD top labels.
- Ellipsize long action-button labels so panels cannot grow past the viewport.
- Add accessibility/button layout assertions and refresh the gallery captures.
- Record the font/layout pass in TODO, docs, changelog and memory.
- Add Help, Settings, Pause and review to the top-modal close chain so right-click and Esc behave consistently.
- Restore the venue menu after menu Settings and prevent Help from opening Pause behind itself.
- Reopen pause after in-shift Settings apply and recapture the mouse/unfreeze state on close.
- Extend the session smoke for menu Settings, right-click Help and guard unfreeze.
- Link every modal's enabled controls into a wrapping UiFocus ring and give each screen a default focus target.
- Add gamepad A/B bindings for ui_accept/ui_cancel; include Start menu footer actions and Continue in its focus ring.
- Skip hidden/disabled controls, close focus traps via per-modal cancel behavior, and return review to the menu on cancel.
- Record the focus audit and add regression coverage.
- Add UiStyles with explicit normal, hover, pressed, focus and disabled styles and apply it to every action button.
- Disable timeline Previous/Next at the first/last event and keep Close always available.
- Style settings reset-dialog buttons and cover the button-state audit in docs/ui-copy.md.
- Add shared-state and timeline-boundary regression tests.
- Route the Reason verb through authored reason contexts and give every shared archetype an in-character answer.
- Add Hollywood wristband and TV Studio ticket/credential door-staff lines.
- Clarify radio cancellation, Ask terminology, start hints and campaign-reset copy.
- Record the dialogue audit and length findings in docs/ui-copy.md; add regression tests.
- Set project.godot to 0.9.2 and add the matching changelog entry.
- Renumber the postponed work to 0.9.3 UI, 0.9.4 NPC, 0.9.5 textures and 0.9.6 integration, with 0.10.0 as the next minor release candidate.
- Remove the 1.0.0 milestone and post-1.0 planning; plan only 0.x patch/minor increments.
- Synchronize README, PLAN, architecture, status, memory and UI-copy version references.
- Add a review harness that stages all eight library characters at portrait, conversation and crowd distance on both maps in day and night.
- Fix the final-context lanyard badge and firefighter helmet fit with runtime attach offsets; the asset-space gear contract is unchanged.
- Record the gate sign-off, refresh the gallery, and move the completed review to DONE.
- Replace the alley with the 27 m Comedy Store-inspired hall, signature canopy, circular blade sign, red curtain bays, west entrance, low-rise neighbours, dry hillside and opposite frontage.
- Add day/night/across-street concept frames and real-site mapping notes.
- Expose the Joke Shop day stage in the realism captures and refresh the gallery shots.
- Render multiline HUD/wand strings correctly and list carried items in the wand panel.
- Add the Joke Shop layout/budget tests and update docs, roadmap and changelog.
Replace the generic boulevard facade with a stylized 6840 Hollywood Blvd block: six Ionic columns, eight stone steps, Masonic frieze/medallions, event banners, side doors, El Capitan Theatre and retail neighbours, Ovation Hollywood arcade, Walk of Fame and four-lane street markings.
Add the Day and Night Hollywood venue-menu rows. Night uses a phase-time offset so a full-length shift stays in LATE while the clock starts at zero; late routine traffic keeps the street populated and the offset round-trips through checkpoint restore.
Retune local-light falloff to linear attenuation, add a cool north sky fill, and use the smooth limestone facade texture. Refresh the staged gallery and map references; add geometry-budget, menu, night-offset and late-traffic tests.
Move the promoted 0.9.5 map work to the active milestone, postpone UI/NPC
detail/texture/integration/release-candidate work, and add a detailed pre-build
NPC gate that reviews portraits, gear fit, crowd distance and final lighting
before any build or tag.
Add tools/check_docs.py to require READMEs only in tracked docs directories,
validate local links and verify every tracked image is linked. Gitignored
generated files such as realism runs are exempt. Document the command and add
unit tests. Python 97/97.
Gitea cache restores were inconsistent and cache saves timed out or were
rejected as reserved by another job. Remove the cache steps and keep direct
4.7.2 downloads; document the evaluation and when to retry. The workflow is
otherwise clean (no .github/ci.yml exists).
Update project features and CI installs/templates to Godot 4.7.2, remove the
old version matrix, and cache the Godot binary and export templates with Gitea
Actions cache. Update release/docs/version references accordingly. Project
import and headless tests pass locally under 4.7.2.
Add mixer/accessibility settings, caption/reduce-motion hooks, audio volume
clamping, a 24-NPC performance smoke and shortened coat/dress stride for hem
clipping. Record the explicit Godot 4.3-CI/4.7-local matrix and the 0.9
production scope. Headless 250/250, Python 94/94, 24-NPC budget smoke passes.
The radio button was connected only to the emergency hold handlers, so a
normal Send request never reached _submit. Connect pressed for non-emergency
calls while keeping hold-to-confirm exclusive to emergencies, and add tests
for click, short-hold rejection and full emergency hold. Headless 249/249,
Python 94/94.
Add the non-blocking prompt card, safe compliant visitor, action-driven
advancement through the real wheel/inspection/warning/radio panels, persisted
completion/skip, a Settings replay action and localized tutorial strings.
Scripted tests/captures bypass the tutorial unless --tutorial is passed. Add a
windowed smoke covering the full flow. Headless 237/237, Python 94/94, tutorial
smoke passes.
Move guard look handling to the _input stage, recapture the cursor on
window-focus return and when clicking back into gameplay, and make HUD controls
mouse-transparent. Add regression tests for yaw/pitch and HUD mouse filters.
Verified under Xvfb with real relative mouse motion. Headless 237/237, Python
94/94, movement smoke 60 fps.
Write the eight-beat tutorial sheet, its safe visitor script, persistence and
replay rules. Add a deterministic, skippable/restartable Tutorial RefCounted
state machine with headless tests. UI/GameManager wiring remains the next task.
Headless 235/235, Python 94/94.
Delete docs/plan-graphics-v0.6.md and update README, architecture, asset
tooling, Blender docs and MEMORY references. Completed work stays summarized
in ADR-0013, the asset-pipeline architecture and the changelog; the v1.0.0
roadmap owns future graphics work.
Make architecture the canonical system/data-flow source, add explicit
documentation ownership and consolidation rules, and mark the old graphics plan
historical. Fix stale README/status/Blender/release claims. Add a full gap
register and milestone roadmap from v0.8 through v1.0.0, including onboarding,
content depth, accessibility/localization, performance, release/legal blockers
and non-blocking future ideas.
Add openrouter_judge.py to rank live image+JSON models by advertised price,
with ordered fallbacks, auth-error handling and auto selection. Wire both judges
to --model auto, record the model used, and add fake-catalogue/mocked-call
tests. Re-run the judges with the valid key: 13/13 screen designs match, 0 diff;
the Forward+ A/B report records the selected model and ~$0.006 spend. Headless
231/231, Python 94/94.
Package a Forward+ preset with volumetric fog, SDFGI and a volumetric flashlight
for a separate Linux/Windows Desktop HQ zip. Gate the effects on a real
RenderingDevice, tune LATE fog, and adapt local light falloff for Godot 4.7.
Record the Compatibility/Forward+ A/B captures and metrics, add the artifact to
the build/publish scripts, and keep the default Compatibility/Web path
unchanged. Headless 231/231, Python 87/87; exported HQ binary boots with Vulkan.
Record the upgraded 4.7.2 binary, the retained 4.3 backup and the matching
export templates. Keep the project/CI baseline at 4.3 and note that 4.7.2
verified import, tests, the session smoke and a Linux export. Hide the
4.7-generated per-script UID sidecars from this clone only.
Add the alley walls, warm lantern, shutters, dumpster, AC clutter and door
step for the Joke Shop. Build the studio stone facade, bulb canopy, glossy
black car, stanchions and barriers. Rebuild only the world container when the
venue changes, so the guard and UI survive; add per-venue navigation checks.
Capture gallery shots 12/13, update the concept mapping and docs. Headless
231/231, Python 87/87, screenshot gate 13 good/0 bad. The vision-judge retry is
tracked separately because the API key is invalid.
Add the Hollywood, Joke Shop and TV Studio tables for facade, window,
stair, street, nav, guard-spawn and feature data. Unknown ids fall back to
the boulevard. Use the specs for the core dimensions and gates, with a headless
test for the distinct venue data. Headless 230/230.
Ship the fitted NPC gear pass with the post-v0.6.0 realism and UI work.
Bump the version source and documentation to 0.6.1 and move the changelog
entry out of Unreleased. Headless 229/229.
Create CHANGELOG.md with the post-0.6.0 gear-fit entries and backfill the
recent release history. Update the implemented-features list, asset-tooling
notes, README links and verification counts (headless 229, Python 87).
Move the completed gear section to DONE.md and record the hooded-portrait
follow-up. An explicit --portrait-type now overrides the hooded-subject skip,
though the day roster has no types 5-7 yet. Headless 229/229.
The Python fit test now caps the glasses at 0.70x head width and requires a
positive bag clearance on both the coat and dress. The Godot character suite
loads head/back gear on six roles and checks attach parents, head width and
brow bounds, and that back gear reaches beyond the 0.26 m body silhouette.
Rebuilt and re-baked all 18 gear assets; no-op GLB export churn was reverted.
Headless 229/229, Python 87/87.
The face pass added a brow ridge; lift the helmet mesh 2 cm so the brim sits
above the eyes. Cap and hood were rendered on their characters and leave the
brow/ears and face readable. Rebuild and re-bake the helmet; Python 87/87.
Move the hinges to +/-0.075 (0.035 box), arms to +/-0.098, and lenses to a
0.024 m radius while keeping the lens plane in front of the eyes. Rebuild the
GLB and AO; fit now measures 0.202 m total width (0.64x head). capture_realism
now parses the documented --portrait-type option instead of ignoring it.
Python tooling 87/87; headless 228/228.
`blender_assets.py fit` measures each character head width (skin vertices
weighted to Head in y 1.55-1.81) and clothing radius (cloth skirt in y 0.30-0.52,
pants hip fallback), then prints every attached head/back/chest gear bounding box
with head-band status and x/radial skirt clearance. The report confirms the
glasses width and shoulder-bag coat clip, giving the next fit fixes numbers.
Python tooling 87/87; asset audit clean.
Blender library
- Rebuild the face: sclera, iris and upper lid per eye, brow ridge, cheekbones,
nose bridge and tip, ears with lobes, split upper/lower lips.
- Give each hand four fingers plus a thumb and end every sleeve in a cuff ring.
- Raise CHAR_MAX_VERTS 4000 -> 5000 (16 avatars still cost ~6.9 ms of a 50 ms
frame), decimate the body to 26 %; characters are now 3,974-5,026 tris and
3,744-4,807 verts. Rebuild all 8 variants and re-bake their AO maps.
Capture tooling
- Add a `portrait` stage to capture_realism.gd: freeze one NPC, park the crowd
out of frame, stand the subject on open sidewalk, turn it into the camera and
put the guard on the sunlit side. New --portrait-type=N picks the role.
- Add the npc_portrait_day concept and map the shot to it, so avatar detail is
scored against a portrait instead of a wide street frame.
Flashlight
- Drop the fake additive beam (Materials.light_beam + the cone mesh): on GL
Compatibility a first-person camera inside the cone renders it as a filled
disc with a bright far ring. Keep the tight spot (14 deg, 20 m, energy 4.2)
and its headless test; the visible shaft is now planned behind a Forward+
preset.
Docs and task tracking
- Move the finished realism follow-ups (ground exposure, flashlight, NPC detail,
judge re-check) to DONE.md and expand TODO.md with step-by-step plans for NPC
gear fit, venue geometry plus the committed gallery, and the Forward+ preset.
- Record the decisions, gotchas and portrait recipe in MEMORY.md; update the
Blender contract, the concept README and the capture section of README.md.
- Refresh the gallery captures affected by the avatar rebuild.
Checks: headless 228/228, Python 86/86, blender_assets audit exit 0,
scene_concepts audit all GOOD, screen_designs compare 11 good / 0 bad,
smoke_npc_budget OK, boot clean (only the known headless mesh warning).
- reduce PLAN.md from a 674-line implementation log to a 187-line product/design
plan; keep escalation, venues, NPC/systems, controls, presentation and constraints
- refresh README for implemented venues, Blender/v2 assets, the custom test runner,
Web target, current release state and the screenshot smoke
- update architecture for 0.6.0, the runtime art loader, Gitea CI/build/publish,
Web deployment, six release artifacts and visual regression
- remove stale uncommitted/active-pass claims from MEMORY and point it at the
current NPC follow-ups; move the completed documentation task to DONE
The REC/clock block sat on top of the top-right shift/rep/crowd lines. Start it
at y=92 and slightly farther from the edge, keeping the overlay visible without
covering the status. Headless 226/226 and a windowed HUD screenshot checked.
