Mid-match joiners now spawn a dedicated empty Spectator prefab (NetworkObject
+ SpectatorSetup only) instead of a fully stripped Player prefab. The FreeCam
rig is a standalone scene object in Main, so the spectator needs no avatar body,
renderer, collider, or CharacterController -- eliminating the leftover-body
artifact and the fragile per-peer strip path entirely.
- SpectatorSetup.cs (new): owner binds GameModeManager.BindSpectator (FreeCam-only)
- Spectator.prefab (new): empty avatar (Transform + NetworkObject + SpectatorSetup),
registered in DefaultNetworkPrefabs, wired on MatchManager in Main
- GameModeManager: add BindSpectator/BuildSpectatorModes; drop the spectator
branch from BindLocalPlayer; ReleaseToNoPlayer frees the cursor on teardown
- MatchManager: independent entropy-seeded RNG for fair hunter pick (was sharing
the global engine RNG and always landing on the same client); spawn the
spectator prefab for mid-match joiners; cursor-safe return-to-Main teardown
- FreeCamController: guard IgnorePlayerCollision against a disabled capsule
Also bundled (unrelated user asset/UI edits): PaintHudPanel layout tuning,
font atlas (arialroundedmtprocyr_bold SDF), forestpack_foliage material.

Pointer-based per-painter history of the canonical maps with copy-on-write
sharing (only maps touched by a stroke are cloned). A stroke (press..release)
is one step; a Load resets the history to the loaded maps as the sole baseline.
Network sync replicates undo/redo as tiny checkpoint/restore commands instead
of broadcasting full map snapshots: every peer runs the same COW history keyed
by owner-assigned checkpoint ids and reproduces restores locally. A peer that
cannot reproduce a target (undo across its join boundary) requests a targeted
snapshot from the owner as fallback.
Hardening: ordered send FIFO keeps stamps + checkpoints + restores in
production order (a marker never overtakes the stamps it finalizes); stamp
overflow carries over to the next frame instead of being decimated, so remote
content matches the owner; remote always inserts the checkpoint id to stay
1:1 aligned. Owner-authoritative snapshot fallback replaces the silent
host no-op. Adds a logSync toggle (default on) tracing when each
checkpoint/restore/snapshot is sent, applied, or falls back.
Also includes paintings-panel layout tuning in PaintHudPanel.prefab
(inspector edits).

Persistence rework:
- Drop auto-load on setup and auto-save on teardown; the painter now always
seeds fresh from the material.
- Named slots under MeshPaint/Saved/<name>.paint via the existing CHMP
machinery: SavePaintAs / LoadPaintByName / DeletePaint / ListSavedPaintings /
PaintExists. Slot files carry the display name in the header.
- Remove the obsolete persistence partials (PlayerCharacterController,
PlayerPoseController, ThirdPersonOrbitInput) and their references.
Paintings HUD panel:
- Authored Panel_Paintings + Save/Load/Delete dialogs into PaintHudPanel.prefab
(TMP throughout); PaintHud.Library.cs is now a pure binder that clones the
entry template per slot.
- Save dialog blocks empty/existing names; Load and Delete confirm first.
- Fix dialog z-order: open dialogs SetAsLastSibling so a dragged panel can no
longer cover them.
- Lib_ListContent horizontal offsets corrected to 0 (was clipping entry labels
out of the masked viewport).
Multiplayer:
- Loading a painting re-syncs to all peers via the snapshot broadcast path
(BroadcastLoadedPaint), covering later late-joiners for free.

Replace the CPU island-mask dilation guard on the GPU backend with a
coverage pass rendered through the same brush rasterizer, so sub-pixel
rim texels that the GPU brush can never reach fall into the gutter and
stay paintable (no more frozen loaded pixels at island edges).
Also includes user content: additional brush masks (dirt) with an
expanded mask selector in the HUD prefab, and CharacterController /
wall-climb inspector tuning.

- Add mask selector with previews to the brush card (data-driven from
painter.brushMasks); persist activeBrushIndex with HUD layout.
- Fix alpha/coverage artifacts when overpainting after load or backend
switch: derive the dilation source marker from a deterministic UV island
mask instead of resetting it to "unpainted" on every seed.
- Import the two final brush mask textures (Brushes/).

Pipette samples all painted channel values (albedo, metallic, smoothness,
occlusion, emission) at the clicked texel and adopts them into the brush
with every opacity forced to 1, instead of painting. The screen raycast is
extracted into a shared TryRaycastPaintMesh helper used by painting, preview
and the pipette. A pipette toggle is added to the HUD panel prefab and wired
in PaintHud.

Spray brush mode: bakes a procedural scattered-dot mask per stamp (random
position, size, alpha within the brush disc) and paints it through the
existing single-stamp pipeline; dot centers clamped to (0.5 - dotR) so the
spray footprint matches the solid brush radius.
Paint interval: float on MeshPainter; 0 keeps the continuous interpolated
stroke, >0 emits a single timed dab every x.xx seconds.
Color picker alpha: horizontal alpha bar on both HSV pickers, runtime-built
in Rebind (no prefab re-bake), passed through to brushColor.a / emissionColor.a.
Metallic/smoothness + occlusion paint opacity: new opacity fields applied in
both CPU and GPU backends (GPU MSO draw split into MS and occlusion sub-stamps
for independent opacity), with cloned alpha sliders wired into the HUD.
Also includes the prefab layout tweaks and scene adjustments.

Split the single HUD panel into four independent per-channel sub-panels
plus a global brush-size panel, each a standalone RectTransform with its
own header (drag-handle ready). PaintHud now binds to a baked layout
prefab via recursive name lookup instead of building everything in code,
with a code-gen fallback. HsvColorPicker gains Rebind() to re-apply the
procedural gradient sprites and drag relays that a prefab cannot serialize.
