Route sounds, songs and buses in one Master routing graph (#351)
A project bus could only go into one other bus, and a sound, an
instrument, a pattern or a song into exactly one bus. A shared reverb
needs a sound to go there in part and on dry at the same time. Instead
of a list of sends on every asset, the project gets one routing graph
like the routing of a song (#350), one level up.
- Menu -> Master routing opens a tab with one graph per project. It has
a node per sound, instrument, pattern, song and bus, named after its
asset, and one Master. Embedded assets have none, their song routes
them.
- The nodes follow the assets. Every edit settles the routing in the
same undo step (KeepRoutingCommand), so an undone delete brings the
links of its asset back. A new asset gets a node and a link to the
master. What went only into a deleted bus goes to the master.
- New nodes start in three columns: what plays, the buses, and the
master a row above, so no link into it runs behind a bus.
- Links are sends: -60 to +12 dB, and a Mode on links out of a bus or a
song. Out of a sound, an instrument or a pattern a link always takes
the sound after its volume and FX. Loops are refused.
- A node without a link is silent and says "Goes nowhere".
- The rows Bus and Into are gone. Play nodes with a picked bus still
overrule the routing.
- A click on a node shows its asset in the inspector, the Master shows
the master volume and sound FX. A double click opens the asset's tab.
- The graph lives in project.routing and is held to the assets when a
project is read, but nothing is added there. The editor adds the
nodes when it opens a project. An asset without a node plays on the
master, so old projects sound as before without a migration.
- In the mix an asset with one link at 0 dB goes straight into that bus.
A sound or instrument with more gets a bus of its own with the sends.
A pattern or song sends from the master of its playing, which is
where its Mode taps. Buses of the mix can have sends now too.
Found:

failed in 2 of 5 runs here and in CI task 580 at

Route the tracks of a song through a graph (#350)
Every track of a song went straight into its output. Now the Song tab has a second view, Routing: a graph with a node per track and one Output, the links between them sends. A track can go into other tracks, into several at once, and a link has its own volume and the point of the track it taps. - The song asset has a graph like an instrument (SongTrack, SongOutput). heldSongGraph keeps it in step with the tracks on load and in SetSongCommand: a node per track named after it, one output, a new track and every track of an old song linked to the output. Links of gone tracks, doubled links and links closing a loop are dropped. - A link carries an optional send (volume in dB, tap). The inspector shows Volume and Mode for a picked link of a song: Post volume (Post pan), Pre volume (Post FX), Pre volume (Pre FX). SetSendCommand. - NodeDef has two new flags. `fixed` nodes are never added or deleted by hand. Links between `acyclic` nodes may not close a loop, checked in canConnect, dropTargetPort and ConnectCommand. - songBuses gives each track its sends instead of one `into`, and a bus `song:<song>:<track>:#items` for its own items. That bus is what solo closes on a track that only passes a soloed one on. - Mute and solo now act on the sends (trackGates). A muted track passes nothing on, on any tap. A soloed track is heard with what goes into it, through the tracks it goes through, their own items silent. Only sends on a way through a soloed track stay open, so a track going into it and into the output is heard through it only. - SoundLibrary: a bus has either `into` or sends. Each send is tap, delay, level, target. busLatency takes the latest way (arrivalOf), and each send is held back so all ways of a track arrive together (sendDelays). Taps are wired again whenever a chain comes or goes. - The Song tab has Timeline and Routing in its header. The routing uses GraphCanvas with an empty palette. A track linked nowhere shows "Goes nowhere". Delete takes links, never a track node. - Game playings route the same way, the output being the master of the playing. Decided without asking: a send ranges -60 to +12 dB like a track, default 0 dB Post. Mute closes the sends, the track's own level stays. Found on the way: the inspector built the Mode row with the send as it was when the rows were made. Setting Volume and then Mode wrote the old volume back. Both rows now read the current send when they change. Tests: - Unit song-routing (new): 13 green. Sound library: 4 new, 94 green. 11 counter-probes (loop on load, canConnect, solo, solo past the soloed track, mute, preFx latency, graph sync, delete guard, delays, taps, glide), each red. - Existing tests adjusted to the new bus names and send shape: song, bus-fx, song-play, graph registry, edge description. - e2e 65 on melektaus-atx: ALL PASSED, 43 checks (5 new). The first run caught the inspector bug. Counter-probe with the old closure: 2 FAILED. - Gate on melektaus-atx: typecheck, lint, format clean, 2 tests red (registry rule, edge shape), fixed and rerun locally: 56 green. - Not rerun after the per-send solo fix: e2e 65 and the gate.

Play sounds as notes of an instrument asset #331
A sound could only be played as it was, one at a time. An instrument
is a node graph that makes a note a sound: Notes nodes bring the note
in, Samples play sound assets for it, the effects of a sound FX shape
it and the Output sums the layers. Its tab plays it from a keyboard,
a behavior with Play note. It is what patterns and songs (#330) will
play.
- New asset type instrument, under the heading Music, not placeable.
A new one starts as Notes into a Sample into the Output.
- Notes are counted as MIDI does: 60 is C4, names like C#4, sharps
only, the lowest C-1. Notes has From and To, outputs any, note,
frequency and velocity, and with Single notes a trigger per note,
each with an optional name for a drum kit.
- New port type trigger, only into the trigger of a source. Inputs
can take any number of edges now (PortDef.many): a trigger, and
the Output, which plays everything into it side by side.
- Sample plays a sound asset. Follow note shifts it by note - root
through the pitch worklet of #317, so it keeps its length. Gate
fades it out at the end of the note, One-shot plays through. Loop
runs between Loop start and Loop end, also in the worklet.
- Parameters declares the instrument's own parameters with a
default. Sound FX sends the sound through a sound FX asset, its
parameters as inputs, the sound set in where its Input was.
- compileInstrument walks the graph once per note. A trigger is on
only for the notes it stands for, a silent source silences what it
alone feeds, a Mix with a silent side is the other side. velocity
and the parameters stay open for the voice. Builds are cached per
note until the graph or a sound or FX it names changes.
- The player takes a note as one voice of several layers, each way
with its own file and volume. release fades the gated ways out,
one-shots play on. playNote can release after a duration.
- Play note plays one note with velocity, volume, duration and
detached, and hands out voice for Set sound FX parameters and
Stop sound. Velocity is always loudness. Instrument parameters
picks values for the instrument's parameters like Sound FX
parameters does for an FX, renames follow.
- The tab has the graph, a header field per parameter, Stop, and
128 keys below. Keys without sound are grey. A key plays while it
is held. Focused, the computer keyboard plays as in a tracker by
KeyboardEvent.code, the arrows move the octave.
Findings:
- A label of the keys set fill on the shared small text style and
darkened every small label of the editor. Caught in a screenshot
before the commit, the keys have a style of their own now.
- Suite task 523 on

Play a sound through a graph of gain, pitch and EQ effects #311
A sound could only be played as it was uploaded. A Sound FX asset is
a node graph like a shader: Input, effects, Output. Play sound has a
new input fx that sends the voice through it.
- New asset type soundfx ("Sound FX"), not placeable, with a graph
and its own tab. The heading in the asset panel is "Sound effects",
so it does not take the click meant for the + menu entry.
- Nodes in core/soundfx/nodes.ts, category sound, port type audio
that only fits audio: Input, Output, Gain (dB), Pitch (semitones),
EQ (80 Hz and 12 kHz shelves, peaks at 250 Hz, 1 kHz and 4 kHz).
- compileSoundFx walks back from the Output with the shared graph
emitter. An input takes one edge, so the result is one line: a
pitch and a list of gain and filter stages. A node without input
or a graph without Output reports a problem on the node.
- Pitch is the playback rate of the source. It applies to the whole
sound and also changes its length, the node description says so.
- The BehaviorSystem resolves fx and hands the line to the AudioSink.
An fx that is missing or does not compile plays the sound dry.
- SoundLibrary wires source, stages, volume, destination in that
order. stats().last now also names pitch and stage count.
- The tab header picks one of the project's sounds and plays it
through the graph as it stands. Stop there ends only its own voice.
Tests:
- soundfx.test.ts (new, 11), sound-library (9, +2 for the wiring),
node-catalog (+1 for fx), graph and asset-groups adjusted
- e2e 34: ALL PASSED - 26 checks (+5: + menu opens the tab, palette,
2 effects, tab Play and game Play through the FX at -12 st)
- Gate on melektaus-atx: typecheck, lint, prettier clean, 239 of 240
test files green. The red one was sound-library (its fake
AudioContext had no playbackRate), fixed afterwards, gate not
re-run in full.
- Counter-check: without the audio rule in portsCompatible the port
test fails.

Use a shader graph as a node in other shaders (#303)
A calculation needed in several shaders (a greyscale, a noise, an outline) had to be built again in every one of them. A shader function keeps it as an asset of its own, called like a behavior is since #16. - New asset type `shaderfunction` ("Shader function"), edited in the Shader tab. The panel beside the graph shows no picture, the readout counts its inputs and outputs. - Two new nodes: `Function input` and `Function output`. Their declared ports, numbers or colours only, are the ports of every call. One of each per function, like Start and End. - The call is node `ShaderCall`, named after the function. The palette lists every function, it can be dragged in from the Assets panel, and a double-click opens it. - The compiler sets the function in where it is called (`inlineFunctions`). It renames the copied nodes `<call>/<node>` and turns an unconnected port into a constant. Passes, Time, the Edge cut and the corner walk then see a plain graph. - A problem inside a function is reported at the call, in the function's words. The function's own tab checks it on its own (`checkShaderFunction`). - `ShaderLibrary` keys a shader on its graph and on every function it calls, however deep, so a change reaches every caller. - The port commands mirror a new, renamed or removed port into every call, as for a behavior's Start and End. `NodeDef.portKinds` holds the two ends to Number and Color. - As agreed in the issue: no `Property`, `Color property`, Output or Vertex output in a function, and `Time` is the caller's clock. - Own decision: a `Pass` may stand in a function. It becomes a pass of the calling shader, so a wide blur can be a function. - A function calling itself, also through another, says so at the node and is not set in. The palette does not offer such a call. - The Shader tab showed only the compiler's problems. A call nothing reaches was never compiled and looked healthy, so a call now also shows its own problem there, as in a behavior. Tests: - Gate: 228 files, 3510 tests, CHECK EXIT 0 (+13: 11 in tests/core/shader-functions.test.ts, 2 for the new icon) - e2e 28: 100 checks, all passed (+3 in 28l-viii). Called and in place both #606060/#a2a2a2, halved in the function #303030/#515151. - Counter-check: a fingerprint without the called functions fails 1 unit test, and in the browser the change check (#606060 stays). - The first e2e runs found two faults, both fixed: a double-click only selected the function, and an unreached call of itself showed no problem. - e2e total 1728 is computed (1725 + 3).

Let a shader declare a color the sprite sets (#298)
A shader could only ask its sprites for numbers. A tint, an outline colour or a glow colour had to be built from three Property nodes. - New node Color property next to Property: Name and Default (a colour, white unless picked), output `color`. It becomes a colour row below the Shader dropdown and a vec3 uniform in the program. - Number and colour properties share one set of names. A clash is the existing "Another property is named" problem. - Like Color it cannot feed the Vertex output. - Placed from the palette it is called tint, then tint2. - The preview in the Shader tab shows a colour field for it. Like the sliders it starts at the sprite's value and never writes into the project. - `declaredRows` takes the row builder, so the particle graph keeps its number rows unchanged. Tests: - Gate: 222 files, 3452 tests (3445 + 7) - e2e 28: 89 checks (28l-v: default colour drawn, then the colour the sprite sets) - e2e total 1704, counted (1703 + 1) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Let a shader move the corners of the picture it wears (#79)
A shader could only say what colour a pixel has. Where the picture is drawn was fixed to the four corners of its rectangle, so nothing could wave, bend or wobble. - The new node Vertex output takes x and y, in pixels of the picture, and moves every corner of the wearer's grid by them. The UVs stay with the corners, so the picture bends along. - Subdivisions on that node says how fine the grid is: cells per axis, 1 to 64, 8 by default. 1 is the plain quad. A shader without the node keeps the quad every sprite shares. - A graph holds one Vertex output at most. UV, Time, Property, Number and the math nodes may feed it, and one node may feed both outputs. - Texture color, Texture alpha, Sample texture, Texture size and Color cannot feed it. The node says "Not available per corner" and the shader does not compile. - Sprites, texts and the preview in the shader tab wear the grid. A nine-slice sprite and particles draw as if the node were not there. - Picking, the selection frame, the size and colliders stay with the rectangle. A wearer with a Vertex output is never culled, as with Padding, and with Padding the grid covers the room around the picture too. - tools/perf-shaders.mjs takes GM_PERF_SUBDIVISIONS to measure a grid against the plain quad. Measured on stein2 (Intel HD 630), frames per second, one run per row: at 800 sprites 58 with a shader on the quad, 46 with 8 cells, 41 with 32. Up to 400 sprites a grid hardly shows. Every sprite holds its own grid. Tests: - Gate on melektaus-atx: 220 files, 3416 tests, CHECK EXIT 0. - 15 new unit tests for the compiler and the grid. - Four new e2e checks in modules 28 and 30: a fixed offset moves the picture, 8 cells bend only the lower half where 1 cell shears it all, Texture alpha is refused at the node, a text moves. - e2e 28,30 on melektaus-atx: 110 checks, all pass. - The e2e total of 1699 is counted (1695 + 4), the full suite did not run. - No counter-probe, no screenshot. Not looked at: the preview, Time in the browser, flipped sprites, Padding together with the grid. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Give a behavior more ways in and out, and hear it as an event (#294)
A behavior run by another one had a single flow port at its Start and at its End, so it could not branch for its caller. And it could not be used as an event: a call needs a pulse at its flow input, and the events of a called graph never fire. An input like "Confirm" (Space or Enter) had to be built again in every graph. - A declared port of a Start or an End node can be of the kind Flow. It sits above the values and shares their names, exec stays reserved. Only these two nodes declare one, a struct does not. - Run behavior shows a flow port of the Start as a further flow input. A call arriving through it leaves the Start through the output of that name and not through exec. - Run behavior shows a flow port of the End as a further flow output. The call goes on through the one the End was reached by last, and then through exec. exec fires always, as before. - On behavior is a new event node without a flow input. The behavior it names runs at the node for as long as the behavior around it runs, with all of its own events and one set of variables per node. - Its outputs are those of the End. It fires once the inner pulse is through, by the output the End was reached by last, exec only for End.exec. A pulse that never reaches the End is not seen. - The value ports of the Start are its inputs, read anew for each inner pulse. The Start itself never fires there. - It nests to any depth. Under a Run behavior it stays silent. A behavior hearing itself, however far round, is not started and the node says "A behavior cannot listen to itself". - The palette offers every other behavior with an End once more as "On <name>". A node naming one without End says so. - An On node removed while the game runs ends its behavior with On disable and On destroy. The sounds of the entity end only with the behavior placed on it. - Renaming and deleting a declared port follows the edges at On behavior nodes as it does at Run behavior nodes. - The flow outputs of the Start of a behavior placed on an object never fire, like its exec. - The engine prompt of the benchmark names flow ports and On behavior. Tests: - Gate on melektaus-atx right before this commit: 215 files, 3319 tests (3278 + 41), exit 0. - e2e 19 on melektaus-atx: 39 checks (+4), all pass. e2e 1-6,17-24,26,36,51: 628 checks, all pass. - 19 unit tests in flow-ports.test.ts, 19 in on-behavior.test.ts on a real world, the rest in the node catalog. - Four new e2e checks in module 19: a flow port declared by mouse at the End, On Confirm in the graph, the call leaving through the further output while playing, Enter and Space on a real keyboard. - 19 unit counter-probes all fail their tests. One did not at first (a removed node kept its instance), a test was added. Two browser counter-probes fail their checks. - One screenshot looked at: On Confirm with exec and pressed, the second flow pin at the calling node. - The e2e sum of 1680 is counted (1676 + 4), the full suite and the smokes did not run. - Not seen in the browser: flow inputs at the Start, nesting, the ring, values through On behavior, the palette entry. No test holds that the sounds of the entity go on when a heard behavior ends. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Query objects in bulk and filter, count or test a list (#259)
The object queries only ever returned one object: Object by name, Child by name and Find all stop at the first hit. Getting every coin, every child or every item that passes a test needed a For each with its own bookkeeping. These nodes return the whole set as a list of Object, so For each and Find can use item straight away. - Objects by name returns every scene object with that name in scene order. - Children by name returns every match below object, nearer levels first, the same order as the singular node. - Children returns the direct children, with recursive all of them level by level. - Objects of asset returns every instance of an object asset or container by the same rule as Is asset, spawned ones included. - All four take a snapshot. Destroyed objects are never in it, disabled ones are, as with the singular nodes. - Find has a Mode setting: First, All, Any and Count. First is the default and hides the row, so existing graphs look the same. - Match follows the mode of its paired Find: done with items and indices, done with any, or done with count. An unpaired Match shows First, since the pairing only comes from the wiring. - First and Any stop at the first hit, All and Count walk the list. - Changing the mode drops edges at outputs the Match no longer has, in one undo step. SetNodeParamCommand now cleans the whole graph, but only edges that were valid before the change. - The palette entry "filter" adds a Find set to All with its Match. Found on the way: - After adding the filter entry, "find" + Enter picked Filter. The entry has node type Find, counted as an exact hit, and the tie went to the alphabet. The search now ranks by the entry id. e2e 6z-v caught it. Tests: - ./check.sh: 188 files, 2746 tests, CHECK EXIT 0. - find-modes.test.ts with 11 tests, 11 catalog cases for the four nodes, the asset input guard now expects 3. - e2e 6z-vii with 3 checks: filter from the palette, Count picked in the inspector drops the items edge, a run logs 2, 2, 2, 3, 4, "0, 2". - GM_STEPS=1-6: all passed, 278 checks. - Counter-checks fail as expected: every mode stopping early (2), Match ignoring the mode (6), cleanup on the own node only (1), no recursion (2), no inOrder (2), old ranking (1). In the browser a Match ignoring the mode fails both editor checks. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

A search that ignores what a thing is called is no search, so the name wins (#43)
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 10m23s
Typing "variable" into the node palette landed on `Run behavior`, because the filter weighed label, type and description alike and then sorted by category. `searchRank` in `src/ui/search.ts` now ranks a match: exact label or type, then prefix, then label, then type, and only last a hit that lives in the description alone. Category and alphabet order within a rank. The searchable `Menu` uses the same function, so searching means the same thing everywhere. The `+` menu grew to fifteen entries in declaration order. It is built in two alphabetical groups now -- the types that go into a scene, then the ones that stay in the library -- with a separator between them, the split `isPlaceableType` already draws. `ASSET_TYPES` itself stays untouched: it is also the serialisation and check order. A search flattens the groups and drops the lines. Popups were capped at fixed heights (320 menu, 260 palette, 340 pickers) while the canvas had room to spare. `Popup.roomFor()` measures its own chrome and takes the window height minus a tenth at each end. Placement clamps asymmetrically: the bottom margin is enforced, the top is only a budget, so a menu anchored near the top stays at its button instead of being pushed off it.

A particle is a function of its age, not a thing that is stepped (#73)
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 4m22s
The asset type `particles` is placeable and carries a graph at the same time — `behavior` was the blueprint. Because a continuous emitter gives birth to particle n at time n/rate, the whole field is a function of the clock rather than of the frames: no ring-buffer bookkeeping, exact time jumps, reproducibility as a measurable property. compile.ts follows compileShader's frame but emits JS closures into a Float64Array instead of GLSL, and without eval; a node with two consumers is evaluated once. Drawing is one Pixi ParticleContainer per source, so one draw call. Collision, wind and braking in flight are out for good — that is the price of the formula model, not an omission. The tab count goes from nine to ten, which is exactly the case #84 was built for one day earlier: at 1280 px the row no longer holds every tab, so guard 14b now asks for hidden.length > 0 instead of === 0. |

Shader assets: graph-built shaders, the Shader tab and sprite rows from the graph (#62)
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 3m59s
A shader is an asset carrying a node graph (Texture color, Output, Property, Color, Add/Subtract/Multiply/Divide, Mix, Luminance) that compiles to the GLSL fragment of a Pixi filter. The Shader tab reuses the Behavior canvas; a sprite wears a shader through its Shader picker, and the rows below it are the graph's Property nodes. Property schema, resolution and deviation take the project because a sprite's rows now live in another asset. The built-in registry of the prototype is gone; "Adjust colors" ships as a graph in the fixture and the three example games. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

State machines: asset, tab, State branch and Set state nodes (#51)
A state machine is an asset whose graph holds one `State` node per state (no ports, name as title), edited in a new "State machine" tab that reuses the graph canvas: right-click places "State n", snap toggle shared with the Behavior tab via SnapToggle. `statemachine` is a value kind like texture (port, literal node, variable, struct field, tagged list item). Behaviors use it through `State branch` (one exec output per state) and `Set state` (one exec input per state; the interpreter now hands `run` the entry port). States live per behavior instance in NodeContext.states, with no initial state. Ports derive from the inline picker or a wired `State machine` literal; BehaviorLookup became GraphLookup with behavior(id) and machine(id). The Graph tab is labelled "Behavior" (key unchanged). Unit tests (state-machine, kinds, catalog, ports), e2e step 26 and README added. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Let a Sequence grow an output as you connect the last one
The Outputs setting is gone. A Sequence now keeps one free output below the last connected one: nothing plugged in is one output, connecting the spare grows a new one, unplugging the bottom edge shrinks it back. It counts the last *connected* port rather than the number of edges, so unplugging a middle one leaves a gap instead of silently dropping an edge. Removing the setting also removes a bug it caused. Typing in the Outputs field did nothing and the arrow keys did nothing, while dragging the value worked: onInput fires per keystroke, the preview writes into node.params, that emits 'project', and Inspector.refreshValues() sees the node's signature change -- the port list is part of it -- so it rebuilds and destroys the row being typed in. A drag survives because it keeps receiving globalpointermove on the old widget. refreshValues() has no focus guard where refreshLive() does; the trap is still there for the next typed field that changes a node's shape. Ports that depend on the edges around a node mean derivePorts needs the graph, not just the params, so resolveDef and portSignature take it too. And a node whose ports are derived cannot know how many it has from its type, so run is handed the definition resolved for it. |

Let a behavior be a node in another graph
A behavior that has a Start and an End node can now be dropped into any other graph as a node of its own. What is declared on the start node becomes the inputs of that node, what hangs on the end node its outputs; the port list is derived from the sub graph, not copied, so declaring a port in one graph grows the node in the other without touching it. The node carries the behavior's name and the palette lists behaviors by name, so a call is one grab instead of a node plus a dropdown. An embedded behavior has no object and therefore no place for variables: every call starts on the asset defaults and communicates only through its ports. That is the conservative direction - state can still be added later, and shared state already has a home in a behavior object in the scene. Node ids are unique per graph only, so each call gets its own pulse cache; without that, two graphs would collide. Renaming a port used to silently drop the value typed on the calling node. It is carried along now, project wide, like the edges. |
