adminandClaude Opus 4.8 a3ef7055b4 Add free-camera mode with player-equivalent collision
Introduce a free-fly camera as the next entry in the Tab mode cycle
(Player Control -> Paint -> Free Cam):

- FreeCamController: dedicated CinemachineCamera plus a CharacterController
  mirroring the player capsule (radius 0.1, height 1.3, slope 59, step 0.15)
  so the free camera collides with walls/ceiling/floor exactly like the
  player. WASD/Q-E (and Space/Ctrl) fly relative to view; mouse looks.
- FreeCamMode: plain-C# GameMode mirroring PaintMode, with an Exit() that
  restores camera priority and re-enables player control + camera input.
- GameModeManager: register freeCam in the Tab cycle (gated like player).
- Scene: FreeCamera object wired, Main Camera custom blends (0.4s) for the
  vcam priority hand-off.

Chameleon

A Unity mesh-painting game inspired by Meccha Chameleon — not a 1:1 clone. You paint your character directly on its 3D mesh to blend into the environment, and move with an extended traversal kit (run, jump, slope-slide, wall-climb).

Status: early prototype. Core painting and movement work; the hide-and-seek game loop (roles, rounds, scoring, multiplayer) is not built yet.

Features so far

  • Seamless mesh painting straight onto the character's 3D mesh (GPU + CPU path, edge-dilation against seams).
  • Third-person character controller — camera-relative WASD, jump, gravity, slope-sliding off too-steep surfaces, hold-to-sprint and acceleration/deceleration for smooth ramp-up and roll-out.
  • Wall-climb + mantle — climb walls/ceilings (W approach/up, S detach, A/D sideways) and pull up over top edges (or hop over slope tops) instead of dropping.
  • Cinemachine orbit camera — mouse look, interpolated scroll zoom, smoothed orbit rotation, collision deocclusion.
  • Animator hookup — drives a Running bool while moving on the ground.
  • Game mode manager — extensible state machine, switch with Tab:
    • Player Control — move + mouse look.
    • Paint — no movement, left-click paints, hold right-click to orbit.

Controls

Input Action
WASD Move (camera-relative)
Shift (hold) Sprint
Space Jump
Mouse Look / orbit camera
Mouse wheel Zoom
Left click Paint (Paint mode)
Tab Switch mode (Player Control ⇄ Paint)

Getting started

  1. Open the project with Unity 6000.3.11f1 (Unity 6).
  2. Open Assets/Scenes/SampleScene.unity.
  3. Press Play, move with WASD, press Tab to switch to Paint mode and paint.

Cinemachine (com.unity.cinemachine) and the Input System are resolved automatically via the package manifest.

Project layout

  • Assets/Scripts/ — gameplay scripts (PlayerCharacterController, MeshPainter, ThirdPersonOrbitInput, GameModeManager, modes, FrameRateLimiter).
  • Assets/Scenes/ — SampleScene (the playground).
  • Docs/GAME_DESIGN.md — design notes and the full feature checklist (German).

Roadmap

See Docs/GAME_DESIGN.md for what's done and what's next (color-picker UI, eyedropper, poses, seeker role, rounds, multiplayer).
