Session shell
- Startup venue menu (src/game/ui/start_menu.gd): keyboard + mouse, replaces
the live-shift boot and V as the player-facing venue path (V stays a debug bind).
- Pause overlay on Esc (src/game/ui/pause_overlay.gd): resume, restart shift,
settings, quit to menu.
- Settings panel (src/game/ui/settings_panel.gd): mouse look sensitivity and
HUD font scale, persisted via Save into user://settings.json and loaded on boot.
- Shift review "Run another shift" now returns to the venue menu.
- New smoke: src/test/smoke_session_shell.gd (menu -> shift -> pause -> settings
-> menu), passes headless and windowed.
World and presentation
- Skyline backdrop restored with a transparent asset and an alpha-scissor
unshaded material; fixes the opaque black slab from the earlier attempt and
the unimported texture path.
- Steps and landing are a StaticBody3D with per-tread colliders, so the guard
and NPCs walk up instead of clipping through.
- Marquee Label3D scaled up (72 -> 160) so STEP LINE reads from the sidewalk.
- Focus torus and name tag enlarged for 2-3 m readability.
- Routine traffic despawns after an idle lifetime (NpcAvatar.ephemeral), so the
16-NPC cap no longer fills with standers; authored events stay for the shift.
Docs and tests
- PLAN.md test/CI section corrected to the custom headless runner and Gitea Actions.
- README controls table, smoke checklist, test count, and status lists refreshed.
- TODO/DONE/MEMORY updated; completed sections moved to DONE.md.
- Headless suite 77 -> 88 passing (settings round-trip, step colliders, skyline
alpha, session-shell UI behavior, traffic lifetime).
- Script uploaded only the three portable binaries; v0.2.1 release was
missing step-line-setup-0.2.1.exe and the AppImage. Now uploads the full
set (extras when present), reuses existing releases (adds missing assets),
and falls back to ~/.git-credentials basic auth when GITEA_TOKEN is unset
- Back-filled both missing assets onto the live v0.2.1 release via API
(release now carries all 5 artifacts)
- TODO/RELEASING/MEMORY document the findings and the host admin steps for
anonymous downloads ([service] REQUIRE_SIGNIN_VIEW)
- makensis resolves relative -DICON/-DARTIFACT against the script directory,
so CI now passes $PWD-based absolute paths (reproduced locally in the same
ubuntu:24.04 container; installer builds, 7z shows step-line.exe +
uninstall.exe)
- Install as step-line.exe (no spaces: NSIS /oname splits on whitespace)
- OutFile overridable via -DOUT
- tools/generate_textures.py icon.ico now produced via ImageMagick with
classic BMP entries (NSIS-compatible); PIL PNG-compressed ICOs rejected by
NSIS
- Regenerate icon.ico with classic BMP entries (16/32/48) — PNG-compressed
ICO entries can fail NSIS' icon loader on some builds
- CI copies assets/textures/icon.ico onto the packaging path right before
makensis, removing any stale/missing-copy failures
- Recreate v0.2.1 tag after this fix
- tools/generate_textures.py: --ai mode (OPENROUTER_API_KEY, --prompt,
--name, --model, --size; base64 PNG decode; clamp to <=1024px) with a
default batch covering the authored texture set; seedream minimum-size
handled by requesting 2048 and downscaling
- Generated AI asset set committed under assets/textures/ai/ (15 files,
1024x1024 each), kept separate from the deterministic PIL set
- README/MEMORY/TODO document the mode and live verification
- (work authored in a parallel session; linted/verified here — 57/57 tests)
- Install Godot 4.3 export templates locally and fix macOS export
(enable rendering/textures/vram_compression/import_etc2_astc)
- Build Linux/Windows/macOS artifacts into build/ via tools/build_releases.sh;
Linux binary passes headless smoke test
- Add tools/publish_release.sh (creates Gitea release + uploads assets with a token)
- TODO: mark build/install steps done; publishing v0.1.0 + link verification
remain as the single action blocker (needs GITEA_TOKEN)
- Fix LATE shift phase (start 700s) so the violent-threat event is reachable
- Add PROTESTER archetype (rules, profile, colors, events in public venues)
- Add CALL_SOMEONE reaction (FSM -> ARGUING, influencer/trespasser/protester weights)
- Door lock: DoorState core class, L binding, red/green visual indicator,
locked doors thwart FORCE_ENTRY
- Flashlight: G binding, SpotLight3D, perception radius bonus at evening/late
- Persistence: save shift results via Save autoload, history + best score on
review screen, round-trip test
- Navigation: flat NavigationRegion3D navmesh, NavigationAgent3D path following
with direct-movement fallback; steps made visual-only so NPCs reach entrance
- Localization: strings moved to content/strings.en.json (loader keeps
lookup/fmt signatures; coverage test over all keys)
- Distribution: export_presets.cfg (Linux/Windows/macOS), tools/build_releases.sh,
docs/RELEASING.md, prominent README Downloads section
- Remove stale signal_bus.gd (invalid static-signal experiment)
- Tests: 53 passing across 9 suites
