A sliced frame drew its borders one source pixel to one sprite unit. Pixel-art sheets are small:
a 16px corner on a 400-unit button is a thin line, and the only way around it was a larger image.
The texture now carries `Nine-slice scale` (default 1), next to `Filter`. It sets how many sprite
units one border pixel takes, for every sliced frame of that texture. The UVs stay as they are -
a corner shows the same pixels, only larger or smaller. When the sprite is too small for both
borders they are still scaled down together, now starting from the scaled size. With `Repeat`
the tile size scales too, otherwise a doubled border would sit beside a pattern of the old size.
The value is a schema row, so inspector field, saving and undo come without their own code.
Anything that is not a size above 0 reads as 1, and documents without it draw as before.

Refactoring round one: HttpFontStore/HttpSoundStore/HttpTextureStore collapse into a generic
HttpFileStore over a FileStore contract; fontImport/soundImport/textureImport share assetImport
with an ImportKind per sort; ImagePicker/FontPicker/SoundPicker sit on FilePicker and describe
only their row. The group/comment drag logic leaves GraphCanvas for annotationDrag.ts (with its
own unit test), declaredRows.ts replaces the duplicated row build in particles.ts and shaders.ts,
and dead code in font/sound/compile/emission/transform/actions is gone. README: asset list,
check count 958, the two-job CI, the Scenes wiki page.

A state keeps its `in`/`out` exec pins in the model and the editor never draws
them. That is the whole trick: connecting, undo, deleting a state and saving all
keep working untouched, because `normalizeGraph` filters nodes and never edges,
and no edge ever checks its port key against a NodeDef. Only two places change --
`NodeView.redraw` stops drawing the row, and `portAt` refuses to hand one out, so
an invisible pin cannot be grabbed either.
Transitions are drawn by right-clicking a state, `Make transition`, then clicking
the target. The armed mode takes the same shape as a live drag, so the existing
preview draws it with no second code path, and it dies with Escape, a click on
empty canvas or a switch to another asset.
Removing the pins removed the only handle a transition had: edges have no
hit-test anywhere, and the pin right-click was the sole route to Disconnect.
The inspector's TRANSITIONS OUT / TRANSITIONS IN lists are therefore not a
convenience, they are the delete path.
`GraphEdge` gained an optional `label`, which `normalizeGraph` has to pass
through explicitly or a saved name is dropped on load. `State transition`
replaces `Next state`: it takes the machine on an input port and the name from a
picker, and resolves against the *current* state. Names are deliberately not
unique across a machine -- two states may both have an `alarm` -- so a node named
`alarm` moves whichever state has one, and an empty name follows the single
unnamed edge.
The geometry moved to a Pixi-free `transitions.ts`: a gap to the box border, and
a fan that puts a pair of opposite edges beside each other instead of on top of
each other. Keeping it as plain maths is what let a screenshot bug become a unit
test -- an earlier pin-to-pin line ran under the target node and took its
arrowhead with it, because `nodeLayer` sits above `edgeLayer`.
One limit stands and is not fixed here: `ConnectCommand` rejects a second edge
between the same two states ("Already connected"), because every transition
hangs off the same two ports. With names, `A --alarm--> B` beside
`A --seen--> B` is a sensible pair, so this is worth its own issue.

Four ways erase a derived port and take no edge with them: deleting a state,
deleting the `State machine` literal, deleting `Behavior start`/`end`, deleting
the asset. The common cause is `RemoveNodeCommand` clearing only its own graph,
so the fix sits in `drawnDef` (graph/nested.ts) and touches no delete site.
A right-click on an edge goes through `view.portAt` only — there is no curve
hit-test. Without a port row such an edge is not merely invisible, it is
unreachable, so the ghost row is the handle Disconnect hangs on.
`resolveDef` stays untouched: it is the truth for interpreter, compiler,
ConnectCommand and dropTarget, so nothing runs or connects through a ghost
without a second guard.
A particle source can wear a shader asset the way a sprite does, and it is the
cheapest place in the editor to wear one: a shaded sprite gives up its batch and
costs a draw call of its own, while `ParticleContainerPipe` breaks the batch for
every field regardless. Five hundred shaded particles are the one call five
hundred plain ones were.
The fragment the compiler emits needed no change, only a second vertex stage:
Pixi's particle vertex is GLSL ES 1.00 and ours is ES 3.00, so it is translated
rather than invented. What it sees is a particle's picture, not its life — the
buffer carries five fixed attributes and takes no sixth, so age, index and seed
stay on the graph, which is what the graph is for.
Two things the issue did not ask about:
`Shader.resources` is an accessor over the names its constructor declared, so a
slot that is not declared becomes a loose JS property and is never bound. The
adaptor writes `uTranslationMatrix` into whichever shader the container names —
without an empty block for it the vertex gets no matrix and the particles land
elsewhere.
`schemaOf` in serialize.ts hung on `schema !== schemaFor('sprite')`, an identity
check a source never satisfies, so its shader values would have been dropped on
save.
A source is the one asset drawing rows from two graphs, so a name can arrive
twice. Its own row wins and the uniform keeps its default; nothing is rejected
on the shader's side, because the collision exists only at this one wearer.

Particle age and shader time each read performance.now() off their own
library, and the world got the frame's delta straight from the ticker. Three
clocks, so a global time scale would have been three multiplications and a
pause three separate freezes.
core/time.ts holds one clock instead: it accumulates dt x scale per frame
rather than reading the wall clock, and Editor.tick hands the very step it
took to the play session, the editor run and the animation preview. Delta
time, particle age, shader time and that preview are the same quantity now,
so the scale is a single multiplication and a pause is that scale at 0 —
nothing underneath needs rebasing, because the clock itself stands still.
The Math.min(dt, 0.1) caps in PlaySession and EditorRun are gone: the cap
(MAX_FRAME) now sits on the raw frame before scaling, and capping twice would
make the world run slower than the particles at scale 2.
A pause gates the scale rather than overwriting it — effectiveScale() answers
0 while paused, and for anything that is not a positive finite number, while
gameClock.scale keeps its value. A slider later survives a pause that way;
the issue asks for none yet.
The clock goes back to zero at both ends of a run, so a run is reproducible
from second 0 and the scene view looks freshly loaded after Stop. Resetting
only on Stop would not do it: the editor clock runs on afterwards, and the
next Play would start at "seconds since the last Stop".
The trap in that: ParticleField keeps its origin as an absolute second of
this clock, so after a reset it lies in the future and every particle would
age backwards. One line in sync() starts such a field over, which covers the
scene, the game and the tab preview at once — and fixes an older bug of the
same shape, where releasing a particleTime() freeze left the preview empty
for good.
Found while measuring that: ParticlePreview stood at second 0.5 by computing
the clock reading that would mean 0.5 since the field started. Over 200000
random origins the round trip misses the last bit in 18.8% of them and shows
one particle too few in 9.4%, because floor(0.5 * 20) comes out 9. The check
had been flaky since it was written. The panel hands the field the age itself
now (ParticleField.hold), and the faked clock is gone.

Behavior and Container draw an icon because isSymbolType() is true for them,
but that predicate does not mean "draws an icon" — it means "is editor
decoration". Four places read it that way: collectWorldItems, GameViewport.
collectFrame and syncDrawOrder all drop symbols out of the running world and
the game picture, and placementOf() gives them an upright unscaled box.
Listing 'particles' there would have handed the source an icon and taken away
its particles, in the scene view as well as in the game.
So the two questions are two functions now. hasSceneIcon() says a type draws
an icon; isSymbolType() keeps meaning decoration. The icon itself is a
SceneViewport decoration, which is editor-only for free because GameViewport
never syncs decorations.
A ring (r 10, #c26a1f) with four sparks, upright and unscaled like the other
symbols, its middle left open — unlike Behavior and Container a source draws
something of its own, and the field is densest exactly there. The name sits
beside it and a dashed line runs to the parent, same colour.
Found while writing the tests: the source's grab box scaled with its transform
while the icon did not, so the two came apart. placementOf() returns only the
translation for 'particles', making the box the upright 24 x 24 that covers
its icon. The source's own transform still feeds every particle untouched.

Speed and Prewarm are not state and not a second loop: both are arithmetic
on the clock argument the field already passes to every particle formula.
fieldTime = elapsed * timeScale + prewarmOffset, a pure rule next to
liveRange, called at the one place ParticleField.sync forms its time, so
preview and world inherit it together.
Prewarm offsets by one lifetime because that is the smallest offset which
fills a continuous emitter; a burst is dead at time >= lifetime, so the
same offset would skip it entirely and it is suppressed there.
The tab's slider counts wall-clock seconds, so its span divides by the
scale. A missing row falls back to 1 / off, so old project files need no
migration.

Three reports plus one found on the way.
Hold only froze the *picture*: the preview computed a fake second while drawing,
the library clock kept counting underneath, so letting go jumped to "how much
would have passed by now". That is the flip side of the formula model — a thing
that is a function of the clock is not stopped, its origin is moved.
ParticleField.rebase() does that; hold(null) calls it with the second stood at.
The Hold label now mirrors the preview's state instead of its own click history,
so dragging the slider (which holds too) reads `Run`, and Restart puts a held
preview back to 0.00 s rather than leaving it on the second it stopped at.
previewProps only read defaultsFor('particles'), so the panel showed the type's
defaults while the inspector showed the asset's rows. AssetBase.props is a full
bag on a graph asset as well — asset.props now lie over the defaults, the
asset's texture is resolved instead of always drawing a white square, and the
slider's span follows its lifetime. The span is re-read in tick(), because the
rows are edited in the inspector and the tab hears nothing about it.
The preview moves from under the graph to beside it, past a draggable splitter:
a graph is read across, so width is what it can spare and height is not.
AssetTabEditor grows a body() hook for that — the base class still stacks header,
strip and canvas, a subclass may put something next to the canvas.
Found by the full run, not reported: the graph canvas's empty-state hint ran
38 px past its frame now that the preview takes 280 px away. It is cut with
truncate() like any other label.

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.
Nine tabs need 631 px; at 1280x800 the centre column offers 666 px, so the tenth
tab would have spilled under the inspector - the same overflow CI caught in run 5.
TabStrip replaces the bare HStack: it fits the longest prefix that stays inside
the budget, always appends the active tab, and offers the rest behind a fixed
28 px button. The button's width is fixed on purpose - deriving it from the
number of hidden tabs would make width depend on the count and the count on the
width.
The rule itself is a pure function (tabRow.ts), so it is checked without a
browser. setActive() calls relayout() itself because Widget.resize only lays out
on a changed size, and switching tabs does not change any size.
Adding a tab now needs no space arithmetic - only a line in TAB_ORDER,
TAB_LABELS and panes, all three Record<CentreTab, ...>, so forgetting one is a
type error.

The default of the Edge param and the address mode the shared sheet physically
carries were the same constant; changing the value would have turned every
sentinel with it and given each shader sprite a full copy of its texture.
SHEET_EDGE ('mirror', what TextureLibrary uploads) is now separate from
DEFAULT_EDGE ('clamp'). A graph whose Sample reads nothing but its own pixel
draws with the plain sheet whatever the Edge says, so the common shader costs
no second copy.
Without a shader the quad's coordinates never leave 0..1, and mirror-repeat
reads like clamp within a texel - so clamp is what a sprite shows anyway.
The twin of the font picker fixed earlier today: every tile was a Graphics
carrying its sprite and caption, which Pixi v8 answers with "addChild:
Only Containers will be allowed to add children". The background moves
into its own Graphics inside a Container, and the step watches the console
while the picker opens, as the font one does.
Editor suite: 784 checks.

A font asset holds a file and nothing else, the twin of a texture: the server keeps it
content-addressed under data/fonts/{sha256}.{ext}, with the format read from the file's own
four-byte signature (finfo reports fonts inconsistently across libmagic versions). A text
wears one through its ordinary Font property, so overrides, reset, undo and the Properties
node come for free; no font means the editor's own typeface.
The picker lists everything the server holds and renders each row in the face it offers.
The family name is gm-font-<hash16>, never the name inside the file, so two "Regular" cannot
collide. WorldViewport.syncText is the single place that draws it, which covers scene, game
preview and play at once.

Four new rows on sprite, text, collider and container (block TRANSFORM):
scale, rotation in degrees clockwise, mirrorX, mirrorY. As properties they
get override/reset/apply, loading of old projects, write-back after play and
the Properties node for free; camera and behavior have none.
The hierarchy composes T*R*S per level (composeAlongChain replaces
sumAlongChain), so children rotate and scale with their parent. Reparenting
and grouping keep the look (carriedTransform). Drawing goes through
placeNode, the gizmo is a polygon, cull and objectRect use the AABB, drags
are computed in the parent's system.
Colliders are oriented boxes: SAT for box/box, box-circle in the box frame;
exitDistance replaces axisSeparation/axisCorrection, moveAndSlide moves along
the object's own axes.

Fragment-side coordinate nodes instead of vertex nodes: the quad stays the
quad, a UV read plus a sample at a computed coordinate covers flip, scroll,
wave, pixelate and scanlines. Time is a uniform only when a Time node reaches
the Output; a viewport that drew a Time shader redraws from the ticker so the
Scene tab animates without a running world. Edge (Mirror/Repeat/Clamp) is a
second texture variant in TextureLibrary because WebGL binds no TextureStyle
resource of the shader. The compiler now emits #version 300 es first: Pixi
only compiles as ES 3.00 when the fragment says so, and textureSize needs it.

A sprite's picture is now a Mesh (unit quad, sibling of its Graphics node, which keeps
only the hit area); a worn shader replaces Pixi's fragment in that draw, so there is no
intermediate texture and no extra render pass. Measured on the HD 630: 400 shaded
sprites hold 60 fps (was 34), 800 hold 56 (was 20).
Two Pixi facts the code leans on: a mesh's texture is bound only for Pixi's own shader,
so GraphShader.wear hands it over; and MeshPipe caches whether a mesh batches and
re-checks it only in a frame without structure changes, so switching a shader on or
off calls mesh.unload().
The console panel mirrors console.group/groupCollapsed/groupEnd and fills the %s %d
%o %c directives, so Pixi's deprecation warning shows its head, not only its stack.
E2E 12 guards against the addChild-on-Graphics warning, 28 counts shaders instead of
filters.

The wiki carried an estimate ("fine for dozens, not for thousands"). Measured
on the Intel HD 630 that CI uses, 48x48 sprites in a 640x360 camera, neutral
values, three runs agreeing to 1 fps:
sprites 25 50 100 200 400 800
fps 58 56 54 48 34 20
The same scene without shaders holds 60 fps at every one of those counts, 800
included. Quadrupling the sprite area (96x96) measures the same, so the cost is
the render target switch, not the pixels: roughly 20 us per pass up to 200,
40 us at 800.
tools/perf-shaders.mjs drives it (not run in CI, frame times are machine
dependent). New hook __gm.filterCount() counts visible nodes carrying a filter
and proves one pass per sprite; e2e 28 checks it.
Two traps the tool guards against, both cost a wrong answer first: the median
frame time is useless here (the distribution is bimodal under vsync, so the
rate comes from frames/duration), and --disable-gpu-vsync has no effect in
headless, so what is measured is the point where the frame rate breaks down.

The + Property menu of the Properties node offered every shader's params
for every sprite. Each shader row now carries its shader name, and a name
shared by two shaders lists both: "brightness (Adjust colors, Neon glow)".
Sprite-owned rows stay unlabelled.
The note hangs off a map keyed by the def object, not by the name -- a
sprite property and a shader param may share a name (#63), and keying by
name would label the wrong row.

A frame drawn straight from the sheet showed a hairline of the neighbouring
cell along any edge that fell inside a screen pixel: with antialias on, a
partly covered pixel is still evaluated at its centre, past the edge. On top
of that Pixi rewrites a Graphics fill texture from clamp-to-edge to repeat at
draw time (generateTextureFillMatrix.mjs), so the top row of a sheet read its
bottom row.
TextureLibrary.get(ref) now cuts the rectangle out of the loaded sheet with an
OffscreenCanvas on first use and uploads the cut (key file|x,y,w,h, kept for
the session). Address mode is mirror-repeat: Pixi only rewrites clamp-to-edge,
and within a texel of the border mirror behaves like clamp, for linear as well
as nearest. Loaded sheets get it too, since whole pictures wrapped at their own
borders the same way. viewport/textureFill.ts and its test are gone.

Dropdown labels are now Linear (default) and Nearest; the stored values
linear/nearest are unchanged, old project files load as before.
e2e 12c-ii measures in Play at camera zoom 1.37 (screen scale 1.434): a
Nearest edge sampled across seven pixels is byte-identical with and without
a neutral Adjust colors shader, and brightness 0.5 on the same path darkens,
so the pass really runs there. New hook __gm.gameRect(id).

One rule for every asset type: a click on an asset row selects it, a
double-click (or Enter, or creating it via +) opens its tab. Selection
alone still switches tabs only for nodes, frames and template objects.
- state.openAsset(id) = select + 'open' event; the editor maps the asset
type to its tab via TAB_OF_ASSET. The two special clauses for state
machine and shader assets in the selection handler are gone.
- Creating via + and importing a texture from the picker open the tab;
paste/drop of an image only selects.

Output gains a number input `alpha`; unconnected it reads the texel's
alpha, like `color` reads the texel. The epilogue premultiplies with the
resolved alpha. New `Texture alpha` node exposes texel.a for maths.
PortDef.inline=false keeps the alpha port without an inline field: every
number port is inline by default, and a typed default of 0 would have made
every shaded sprite invisible. The compiler's texel fallback is typed:
colour ports get rgb, number ports get texel.a.

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.

A log layer (src/editor/console/log.ts) keeps a 500-line ring buffer and
wraps console.log/info/debug/warn/error, still calling the original. Notices
and behaviour runtime errors go straight to the layer instead of through
console, so editor tests stay quiet and errors can render red. world.log is
untouched: it is per-run structured state that runtime tests and e2e read
directly, not a text stream.
The panel sits under the visible tab, resizable with Splitter('y'), with a
CONSOLE header and a clear button. Each line carries its wall-clock time in
its own dimmed column, so locate() still finds the message text.
The taller centre area drops the graph fit zoom to 0.60, which broke six e2e

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.

A kind like colour or texture used to be spelled out in five parallel
lists, its port type, its empty value, its glyph, its label and its list
tag - 22 literal places for texture alone. core/properties/kinds.ts now
holds one row per kind and the rest is derived from it, so adding a kind
is one row. The five literal nodes collapse into literals.ts, the six
kind menus into one helper.
Number, Text, Boolean is now the one order everywhere; the variable and
port menus used to list Boolean before Text.

- `Texture` and `Color` can be picked as a variable kind, a struct field
kind and a declared port kind; a new `Texture` node hands a picture id
into the graph. Declared, a texture is its bare id – the `$texture` tag
stays a list-only thing.
- The `String` node is labelled "Text" like its kind; the type id stays.
- Whole-number inputs (`Item at`, `Set item`, `Sub list`, `Fill`,
`Repeat`, `Substring`, `To text`) show no decimals (`int()` in shared.ts).
- All server projects are reseeded, so `legacyNodes.ts`,
`migrateDeclaredLists` and the `ownerId` fallback go, with their tests.
- Note `reseed-because-of-list` moved to done/; new note `refactor-types`.

A list no longer says what its items are. ListDef.items, ListDef.fields,
ListFieldDef.items and SetListItemsCommand are gone; the single seam is
src/core/properties/listItems.ts. JSON already tells number, text, boolean
and struct apart, so only two kinds need a tag: {"$color": n} and the new
{"$texture": id}. Field names cannot start with "$", so a tag never
collides with a struct field. On a data link a texture item arrives as
its bare id; the graph has no images.
List tab: the mark in front of each row is the kind picker, "+ Item"
asks for the kind, both are ordinary value edits (one undo step). A list
inside a struct field only offers the flat kinds because the depth rule
forbids a struct item there (ListAccess.kinds); the menu used to offer
it and silently do nothing.
Legacy lists that declared items: 'color' are tagged on load.
Actor demo: the four walk animations and four standing frames live in
two list variables of texture items indexed by facing (Item at), so the
graph can be rebuilt in the editor. The stand frames get their grid ids
back; 44 nodes instead of 46.
Also: the user's edits to on-start-during-play.md and the new note
reseed-because-of-list.md.
Verified: check.sh 794 tests, full e2e 631 checks, smokes 24/19/20.

tools/seed-actor.mjs builds the project Actor demo: it uploads
tools/assets/Actor1.png, slices the 576x384 sheet into the 96 cells of a
12x8 grid (48x48 each, no remainder) and wears the character in the top
left corner. Walking is four ping-pong animations of three frames, which
is the original RPG-Maker walk cycle; standing is the middle frame of the
row, not an animation.
The graph pastes walk- or idle- in front of the direction faced and wears
the result, so eight cases need no branch tree - the List node only holds
numbers. Which way it looks is the key pressed last, corrected whenever
only one axis is still held, or letting go of one key of a diagonal would
walk backwards. Axis input already normalizes its vector.
tools/lib/projects.mjs gains uploadTexture, since data/textures/ is
git-ignored and a seed that ships its picture has to send it. The harness
gains w/a/s/d and keyDown/keyUp halves, because holdKey cannot express two
presses that overlap - which is what a diagonal is.
tools/smoke-actor.mjs plays it in 19 checks and reads the drawn pixels at
the camera edge, where the bounds hold him walking on the spot: three
distinct frames walking, one standing.

An animation asset is a list of pictures (whole textures or frames) with
frames per second and Loop/Once/Ping-pong playback. A sprite wears it
through its texture property, so the picker, instance overrides and the
Properties node work unchanged; there is no dedicated play node.
A different animation starts from its first frame, the same one set again
runs on, so a graph may choose Run or Idle every frame. The clock lives on
the entity, not in props, which the world writes back as overrides. The
AnimationSystem ticks before behaviors, and On animation finished fires
once when a Once animation reaches its end.
The Animation tab plays a preview above a frame strip: reorder by dragging,
Delete, duplicate, + Frames, pause/resume, and wheel zoom about the pointer
with pan and Fit. Scene and Container tabs show the first frame; edit mode
has no clock. Right-clicking a texture creates an animation from its frames.
Button now measures its label with the bold font it draws in, which cut
the Animation tab and red dialog buttons short.

The graph was only locked by five edit-mode guards in GraphCanvas. The
running game reads the graph by reference each frame, so a new node, edge,
changed value, disconnect or undo takes effect from the next frame. Stop
discards these edits like everything else changed in play. A new On start
node does not fire for a behavior that has already started.
During play every data output shows the value it last produced, in the
highlight colour and refreshed ten times a second. Values are kept per
graph, because node ids are only unique within one; with several
instances the most recent value wins. The Variables node reads the live
variable bag, so only its own outputs are kept, as a snapshot.
Each time an exec edge fires, a bead runs along it in 0.3 s, at most one
every 0.15 s per edge, following the same curve the edge is drawn with.
Beads run on game time and freeze while paused; the game logic is
unchanged.
