adminandClaude Opus 5.5 b2326085ed Show each camera only its layers and lay overlay cameras on top (#302)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m2s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 14m26s
A camera could only show the whole scene, so a HUD drawn in the world
would run through a camera shader (#299) with everything else. Render
layers say which cameras see an object, and overlay cameras draw their
own picture over the main one.

- The project has a list of up to 16 render layers, edited in Project
  settings next to the collision layers. It is a list of its own, read
  by the same rules (`layerNamesOf`).
- Sprites, texts, tilemaps, particle sources and containers carry a row
  `Render layer` under their switches. Its default `Inherit` takes the
  parent's layer, at the top the first one.
- A camera has `Sees` (all layers by default) and `Overlay`. The main
  camera is the first one switched on without Overlay, so two plain
  cameras still draw through the first one only.
- Every view through a camera keeps only what that camera sees and lays
  one see-through view per overlay camera over itself. That view is a
  `WorldViewport` of its own, handed its view and frame from below.
- An overlay is fitted into the main camera's whole picture without
  distortion. One of the same size and zoom covers it exactly.
- `z` sorts within one camera only. The pictures lie on top of each
  other as a whole, which is what a shader per camera (#299) needs.
- The Game tab's preview now collects the scene once per redraw. Before
  it collected it twice, with the cameras it would have been five times.
- `SetCollisionLayersCommand` became `SetLayerNamesCommand`, which
  takes the list it sets.

Follow-ups: #304 (the mouse through a chosen camera) and #305 (change
the render layer at run time).

Tests:
- Gate: 226 files, 3487 tests (3480 + 7)
- e2e 63 (new): 4 checks. A green overlay sprite at z -10 covers a
  red main sprite at z 1000, in the preview and in the running game.
  A `UI` sprite in front of the main camera and a `Default` one in
  front of the overlay stay away. Without Overlay the second camera
  draws nothing. The settings dialog adds a render layer at the end.
- Counter-checks: inheriting from parents switched off fails 1 unit
  test. Overlays never drawn fails the two overlay checks in e2e 63.
- e2e total 1720 (1716 + 4), computed.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 3e8c88c66d Add a node that names the collision layer of an object (#211)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 2m36s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 13m16s
The issue asked for three nodes: Set layer, Set collides with and Layer
of. A probe showed that the finding behind the first two is outdated.
The Properties node of type Collider already writes both settings while
the game runs, and both collision systems see the change at once. As
agreed, only Layer of is built, and writing stays with Properties.

- Layer of is a data node with the input object and the outputs name
  and number. The name is what the project calls the layer.
- NodeContext.collisionLayerOf answers the number, and the new field
  collisionLayers on GraphLookup brings the names to the node.
- layerHolderOf in solids.ts says whose layer counts. An object stands
  for its first collider child, a collider or tilemap for itself.
- Decided here: a collider that is switched off counts too, because
  its layer is set either way.
- Decided here: without a collider the name is empty and the number
  is -1.
- The node is a read, not a run, so it answers at the moment it is
  asked. Right after a Set in the same flow it names the new layer.
- The output number was not asked for. It fits the layer port of
  Properties as it is.

Changing the layer during a run had no test at all so far. Five tests
now hold it in both systems.

Tests:
- Gate: 198 files, 2929 tests (2914 + 15), exit 0
- e2e 1-6: 285 checks passed (06: +2 for block 6z-x)
- Five unit tests for the change during a run: a mover is blocked,
  passes and is blocked again, a ray with a layer filter follows the
  change, and a dynamic body falls through the ground in Play
- Six unit tests for Layer of, three against each system, and four
  cases in the node catalog
- 6z-x finds the node in the palette, checks its ports and logs
  "Ghost" and "1" for the owner's collider in a Play run
- Two counter-probes for the change during a run fail 1 and 4 tests,
  and only new ones, so those places were unguarded before
- Six counter-probes for Layer of fail 2 to 3 tests each. All eight
  ran on stein2, not in the container.
- The browser counter-probe fails 6z-x with "Layer 1" and "1"
- The e2e sum of 1619 is calculated (1617 measured in CI run 276,
  plus 2). Neither the full suite nor the smokes ran for this state.
- Not looked at in the browser: that the layer port of Properties
  shows the same picker as the inspector.

adminandClaude Opus 5 4f55f85ad4 Collision layers and masks: a collider carries a layer and a mask of the layers it meets, and the pair only meets when both masks name the other's layer - the rule is one pure module (src/core/model/collisionLayers.ts) with layerBit, layersMeet and the names a project starts with, so the three places that have to agree read the same function: the editor run through CollisionSystem, the Solids sweep per pair and Rapier, where the mask becomes the collider's interaction groups; the project file gained collisionLayers: ["Default"] (default one layer, no formatVersion bump), the collider schema two new kinds - layer as a dropdown of the project's layers and layerMask as a menu of tickboxes that stays open while it is ticked (Menu.ts learned rows that do not close on a pick) - and the names are edited through "Collision layers..." in the toolbar's Project menu, not a Project tab, which is the decision I made myself because the question ran into the MCP timeout: the dialog (src/editor/CollisionLayersDialog.ts) holds up to 16 names, Add layer appends "Layer <n>" and Apply writes all of them as one undo step (SetCollisionLayersCommand); a mask read from a file goes through a check that refuses anything that is not a finite number, because Number(null) is 0 and a collidesWith: null would silently have meant "meets nothing"; 9 new e2e checks in module 8 cover the menu entry, the dialog, Add layer, Apply and its undo, both inspector rows, the tickbox menu, and the mover walking straight through the crate that 8c blocked on once their layers no longer meet, and 21 new unit tests cover the rule, the schema and the command (#152)
