Add the path table from ADR-0014 to the architecture documentation (runtime UI/scene
art, tiled textures, models, reference art, QA captures, raw sources) and close the
second storage-restructure TODO item.
assets/images/ is now the runtime root for composed interface/scene art:
ui/ for screen and panel art, scenes/ for full-frame scene art. Tiled PBR
textures remain under assets/textures/; docs/screens/designs and concepts stay
reference-only; QA captures stay under docs/screenshots. Mockups that become
runtime art are copied/processed with a new name (no overwrites) and always
have a code fallback.
Records the convention in MEMORY, adds ADR-0014 to the architecture index, and
closes the first storage-restructure TODO item.
Phase 4 of the v0.6.0 graphics plan:
- tools/bake_ao.py bakes 256² AO maps for every Blender character/gear/prop
(Cycles, existing UVs) next to each GLB; Materials.apply_ao() wires the red
channel into character slots, gear, and props. Compatibility has no SSAO.
- Regenerated brick/concrete/asphalt at 1024² with OpenRouter, derived tangent
normal maps via tools/make_normal_maps.py, and wired them through
SurfaceMaterials.textured() without changing UV scales.
- Evaluated Forward+: boots on desktop Vulkan, but the renderer is project-wide
and Web must stay GL Compatibility; v0.6.0 keeps Compatibility (decision in
MEMORY/plan). A desktop-only override is deferred.
- Recaptured screenshots; compare 11 good / 0 bad. Fixed marquee text alignment.
- Tests: baked AO maps exist for all 46 assets; prop/character AO material
checks; headless 222/222, Python 69/69, all smokes pass.
- Version 0.6.0; ADR-0013 accepted; README/architecture/blender-assets/plan and
TODO/DONE updated.
NpcAvatar
- select one of 8 library character variants by role/seed (with npc_base and the
procedural rig as fallbacks), keep Rig/Head and the existing bone animation
- tint only skin/cloth/pants/accessory/hair; fixed detail materials keep their
colour, npc_vest keeps its hi-vis vest, firefighter/guard use dark uniform tints
- attach caps, hoods, helmets, backpacks, SCBA tanks, lanyards and hand items at
the documented head/back/chest/hand points (primitive fallbacks retained)
WorldBuilder
- prefer assets/models/blender/props/ for the six replacements and the new
street dressing (street lamp/tree, palms, planters, A-frame, cone, barrier,
stanchion, podium, handrail, wall lantern, double door, marquee, sedan)
- fit the same colliders/navigation obstacles and keep the placement validator;
collect library emissives (bulbs, marquee face, wall lanterns, door LED, sedan
lights) for set_night_mode()
- add a library triangle counter + 60k budget check (current ~27,986); toggle
prop gallery to the library models; fix the marquee label placement
Tests/smoke
- character selection/gear attach/fixed-material tint tests; library prop load,
emissive and triangle-budget tests; smoke_props routes a guest around a
stanchion in open sidewalk (the old bench route is now crowded by trees)
- headless 222/222, Python 68/68, all smokes pass, compare 11 good / 0 bad
Docs: TODO Phase 3.5 moved to DONE, README/architecture/blender-assets/plan
describe the integrated runtime, MEMORY records the integration rules.
Update the game name in project.godot, export presets, UI/marquee/title strings, packaging (AppImage/NSIS/desktop/appdata), tools, docs, and the generated prop GLBs. Packaging assets and README screenshots are regenerated. Headless suite 209/209 and Python tooling tests pass.
Ten of the eleven README captures are refreshed (the prop gallery is unchanged). README gains an NPC character-model subsection and a 'Confirmed game assets' section with linked, audited textures/models; architecture Level 2 lists npc_pipeline.py and asset_pipeline.py.
Rendering and presentation
- Shared surface-material module (src/game/materials.gd) with per-surface
roughness/metallic/uv profiles; ACES tonemapping, glow, fog and phase-driven sky
energy. WorldBuilder rebuilt on those profiles with facade windows that light up,
door trim/handles, curb, lane dashes, bollards, bench, bin and planter foliage.
- NPC silhouettes: per-role clothing palettes, caps/hoods/backpacks/sunglasses,
hands and shoes, arm/leg walk swing.
- Six generated low-poly GLB props (bollards, bench, bin, planter, newspaper box,
hydrant) built by tools/model_pipeline.py, loaded by WorldBuilder with a
procedural fallback; ADR-0012.
Selection and movement
- Focus ranking by view angle then distance (NpcFocus.rank_indices); Tab and the
mouse wheel cycle nearby people initially, right click clears focus with a
re-acquire grace, HUD shows the candidate count, Shift walks at half speed.
ADR-0011. Windowed smoke extended to cover wheel cycling and clearing.
QA tooling
- screen_designs.py catalogue grown to 19 screens (8 scene, 11 UI) plus a `list`
subcommand; draft generation keeps existing AI references unless --force.
Web export
- New Web preset using the non-threaded Godot template (static hosting, no
COOP/COEP). tools/build_releases.sh exports build/web and packages
build/step-line-web-<ver>.zip; publish_release.sh uploads it with the desktop
artifacts. test_web_export.gd covers the preset and release wiring.
Verification
- Headless suite 177 -> 181, Python tooling 53 tests, all eight smokes pass
(including the windowed focus/wheel smoke). Web bundle serves index.html,
index.wasm (35 MB) and index.pck (30 MB) with HTTP 200 from a static server.
- Version 0.3.0; README, PLAN, RELEASING, TODO/DONE and MEMORY updated.
Tag builds since v0.2.2 built all artifacts but never published a release:
- tools/publish_release.sh only assembled AUTH in the GITEA_TOKEN branch; the
~/.git-credentials branch set CRED and then used an unbound ${AUTH[@]} under
`set -u`, so every API call failed and the job ended "could not create or find
release". It now sets AUTH=(-u "$CRED").
- The repo has no GITEA_TOKEN secret and the runner has no git credentials, so the
workflow now falls back to the built-in workflow token:
GITEA_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITEA_TOKEN || github.token }}.
v0.2.9 was then built and published locally with all five artifacts (portable
Linux/Windows/macOS, NSIS installer, AppImage) and the release page verified via
the API. v0.2.4-v0.2.8 remain unpublished; they are superseded by the latest.
Docs
- docs/RELEASING.md records the incident and the local-publish fallback.
- TODO gains a release-pipeline follow-up (verify CI on the next tag).
- MEMORY notes the root cause, the missing secret, and which releases exist.
- Version 0.2.10.
- 0007: input layers so WASD/look never fire person-verbs; freeze while modal
- 0008: cone focus + billboarded head ring; no type names in the world
- 0009: doughnut action menu (LMB/Space open, click or A/D then Space, Esc/RMB
cancel); emergency stays on R
- 0010: keep procedural rigs, add face/hair/neck; no Mixamo this pass
Linked from architecture.md, PLAN.md, TODO.md, MEMORY.md.
- 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
