- 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.
Regenerate the committed screenshot gallery on the current build, run compare
(13 good/0 bad) and the automatic-model judge (13/13 match, 0 diff), and record
the result. Update the 0.9.2 visual checklist items.
Finish the button-label audit with a surface-by-surface table, clarify Quit
game vs Quit to menu, rename Apply to Apply settings, and use string-table
keys for the new labels. Extend the smoke checklist with UI copy/button checks.
Headless 250/250, docs check OK.
Add the screen/copy/button inventory and canonical terminology, standardize
inspection/wand admit-refuse hints, name the review action Return to menu, and
move radio action/hold/status labels into the string table. Headless 250/250,
Python 97/97, docs check OK.
Renumber the pre-release patches after shipped 0.9.1, promote the next release
candidate to 0.10.0, and expand NPC work into reference/acceptance, proportions,
face/hair, hands/clothing, gear fit, pose/performance and visual verification.
Sync the README status and remaining-gap references.
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.
Remove generated README files from docs/screens/realism and update the screens
index to treat realism as a gitignored local QA directory with no README gate.
Create an index README in docs/ and every tracked docs subfolder, with relative
image galleries for Blender previews, screen designs, screenshots and concepts.
Generated realism-run READMEs were also created on disk but remain gitignored.
Validate all Markdown/image links.
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).
Cache only Linux/Windows/macOS/Web release templates instead of the full 1.2 GB
archive, and use distinct binary cache keys for the checks and build jobs so
concurrent runs do not fight over the same cache entry.
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 detailed 0.9.1 UI/dialog/button polish, 0.9.2 NPC model refinement,
0.9.3 texture/material refinement and 0.9.4 integration/performance/judge
workstreams before the 0.9.5 release candidate. Update the remaining-gap table,
baseline to v0.9.0 and README development status.
Replace the remaining-gap table with v0.9.0 baselines and break the release
candidate into detailed workstreams for content lock/playtests, balance,
save migration, release engineering, legal/credits, documentation/visual
sign-off and final QA. Sync the README development status to v0.9.0.
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.
Expand the next milestone into animation, audio, localization, accessibility,
performance/platform, QA/visual baselines, Godot-version policy and exit
criteria, with concrete verification work per workstream.
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.
Describe level-2 milestones/themes, level-3 workstreams and the rule that
completed workstreams stay under their parent until the whole milestone is
done. Add a milestone-shaped recommended format and align the changelog/tag
steps with nested sections.
Promote every milestone to a level-2 section and expand 0.8.0 into detailed
workstreams for tutorial, campaign, content matrix, dialogue, debrief, save/
resume, difficulty/help and verification. Keep later milestones broad and
preserve the deferred realism/future lists.
Ignore docs/screens/realism/ entirely and remove its reports/captures from the
index while leaving the generated folders on disk. Update the asset-tooling and
concept notes to treat realism runs as local QA artifacts. Link scan clean.
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.
