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.

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.

Eleven notes collected from the README's "Not yet" section, known
limits found in recent rounds, and open technical points: sprite
animation, graph comments/groups, a load-scene node, sound, nine-slice,
template changes reaching placed instances, exact matches in the
palette, On start added during play, render-on-change, gzip in nginx
and the flaky pixel-art filtering test.

Splitting the bundle would only silence Vite's 500 kB warning. The real
saving is transport compression: nginx serves the 590 kB bundle without
gzip (184 kB compressed), and that setting lives in the shared web-stack
config, not in this repo.

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.

A reference search over every export and method in src/ found code that
only tests still called, or that was never called at all:
- RemoveSceneObjectCommand: the product only removes through the
multi-object command; the tests now use that one too.
- NodeRegistry.requireNodeDef: a second function of the same name in
commands/require.ts raises a CommandError instead of throwing, and is
the one the product uses. The twin invited the wrong import.
- isTextureAsset, listContainers, AssetTabEditor.show,
FocusManager.destroy, KeyboardBridge.selectAll and the getters
ColorField.value, ListView.selected, NumberField.number.
Also: Theme.controlActive now matches the resting control colour, and a
new note asks what editing the graph during play would take.

Collapsed, the node reads "Set 2 variables", "Get width" or "No properties";
expanded it is always "Variables" / "Properties". The Properties node shows
its object type (and behavior) as a line under the title instead.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Get/Set property, Get/Set properties, Set enabled and Set text are gone.
A single Properties node takes a fixed "object" input; every chosen
property is an output that reads the current value, and one switched to
Set is also an input written when the flow arrives. Exec pins only exist
while at least one entry writes.
The node carries a type (Sprite, Text, Collider, Camera, Container,
Behavior, Any) that decides what "+ Property" offers: the fields of that
type, the variables of the chosen behavior, or for Any a kind to pick
and a name to type. Each port takes the default and field of its type,
so a Camera width starts at 640. Switching the type keeps the ports and
marks those the new type lacks. At runtime the type is only an editor
aid; the node writes to whatever object it gets.
Old project files are converted on load. The type is inferred from the
keys: the first object type that has them all, else the one behavior
that declares them all, else Any. enabled belongs to every object, so a
converted Set enabled lands on Any.
The jump-run and tetris seeders use Properties throughout; draw-piece
switches its cell on in the same node that sets the colour.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Get properties / Set properties work like their variable counterparts:
one port per chosen property, an unconnected input writes its inline
value. A port chosen from the built-in list keeps that property's field
and default (height starts at 100, color is a colour field). "object" is
reserved for the fixed input, checked by the command and on load.
The property picker names the owning type ("Sprite width"), and text
fields can now carry a suggestion list; Get/Set property use it.
Double-clicking a call node shows the path of opened behaviors under the
graph header. Clicking an entry jumps back and trims the path; choosing
a behavior any other way hides it. Reopening a behavior already on the
path steps back to it instead of repeating it. The bar shows before the
graph switches, otherwise it clips the graph that was just fitted.
The "Add node..." header button is gone; nodes come from the context menu.

Get/Set variable nodes now title themselves "Get <name>" / "Set <name>", and
the new Variable node just "<name>"; the title is the same folded or open,
and a collapsed node shrinks to it. The redundant "Variable: <name>" row is
gone unless the variable was deleted ("<name>?" is the only hint then).
The Variable node sets its value when an exec flow arrives and exposes the
value at any time. Its output is read when a downstream node pulls it, not
frozen at the write, so count = count + 1 is one Variable node plus an Add.
Get variable keeps reading once per pulse: switching it would change the
behaviour of existing games.

Adding a collider now lives only in the Scene objects context menu, deleting a node on
the Delete key and the node context menu. The e2e checks that pinned the inspector button

content and on a placed container without raising a notice.

Measured click-to-paint was 72-77 ms, of which the editor itself spends
under 4 ms; the rest is the finished frame waiting in the compositor
queue. A desynchronized context bypasses it (16-18 ms in the same probe).
Pixi has no option for it, so main.ts builds the WebGL2 context itself.
The mode may tear on some drivers; ?vsync falls back to Pixi's own
context.
__gm.lowLatency() reports the attributes the browser actually granted,
and a graph-step check pins that the mode stays on.

Split GraphCanvas (1076 -> 831 lines) into EdgeLayer and graphMenus;
the port and marker menus were the same list and are now one function.
Value specs of the inspector and the list tab share valueSpecs.ts, and
the remaining copies (compound commands, type glyphs, typed asset
lookup, name rule, play/editor world setup, marquee) are merged.
Four copies had already drifted apart; merging them fixes:
- "Disconnect N links" in the port menu is one undo step, not N
- "+ Add collider" is hidden on a placed container instance, as in
the hierarchy menu, instead of always failing
- a bool property coerced from the text "false" becomes false
- a port command on an unknown node type reports instead of crashing
Comment-only edits leave the bundle byte-identical. README corrected in
35 places (step limit, jump-run clock, suite duration, 409 body, ...).

The sprite takes the whole image at its pixel size and the texture's name,
numbered like any other clash. CreateAssetCommand now accepts starting
properties; they go through the schema in execute, so an unknown key or a
bad value is refused before the project is touched, and one undo removes
the asset.

A chevron in front of the title toggles it without touching the selection,
and right-click offers Collapse node / Expand node for the whole selection
as one undo step. A collapsed node draws its title bar alone; every link of
one side meets at a single point on it, and hidden links there share one
mark per side, since per-port marks would stack on the same pixels. It has
no ports to grab, so a link dropped on it connects nothing.
Like hiding a link this is drawing only: collapsed is saved on the node and
an expanded node leaves no trace in the project file.

The port editor gets 'From variable' next to '+ Field': pick a struct variable
of the behavior and its fields land as ports. It only adds - a field the node
already declares stays as it is, because it may carry an edge - and the entry
is disabled once there is nothing left to add. A list of structs counts too:
it declares the shape of every item, which is exactly the bundle a Pack builds
for it. A color field arrives as a number port; the graph has no color type.
AddPortsCommand is new underneath: adding five ports had to be one undo step,
and it checks every key before it appends a single one, so a collision does
not leave half the list behind. AddPortCommand is a three-line subclass of it,
which leaves its sixteen call sites untouched.
Ein ausgeschaltetes Objekt zeichnet nichts, verschwand bisher aber auch aus

Anzeichen, wo es liegt. Der Rahmen kommt jetzt, gedimmt auf 45 %, damit er

Ein Toggle in der Graph-Kopfzeile lässt gezogene Nodes auf dem 24er-Raster

sich jeder Node für sich aus, statt einem gemeinsamen Versatz zu folgen, der
die alten krummen Abstände mitschleppen würde.
Die Entscheidung liegt als reine Funktion in framing.ts, wo die übrige
Graph-Geometrie schon wohnt, und ist dort wie im Browser gepinnt.
An unconnected list input is a button into the List tab instead of a number
field; a struct field can hold a list, so ListSlot carries an optional field
name and the three owner cases only say what sits at a key; and a list
variable picks its item kind in the inspector (marker doubles as the chooser),
so a list of structs no longer has to be born from a project file.
The declaration keeps the storable shapes finite: a struct field may be a list,
but that list holds primitives only, so list->struct->primitive and
struct->list->primitive are the two deepest forms.

Next move held four clusters of Set variable in a row, fourteen single nodes
in all; clear-lines read three variables one after the other. They are now
one plural node each, which takes Next move 40 -> 30 nodes and clear-lines
25 -> 23. Every remaining single node was checked and really is single: ok/no
are the same variable in opposite branches, take/keep the same one across a
write, and the three key setters hang on three different events.
Two contracts carry those merges, both pinned as tests. Set variables writes
per port with writeTyped exactly as the singular node does, so a Pack{rot}
still merges instead of overwriting - without it, turning would have erased
the other three fields. And the interpreter collects every input before the
node runs, so no input may come from a variable the same node writes; a data
node is evaluated once per pulse and keeps its answer. That second rule is
invisible in the game, because OnUpdate re-reads each frame and heals it, so
it lives in a unit test rather than in the smoke.
/opt/node22 and /opt/npm are gone from the tree. build.sh ran into the empty
path once they were moved away; the other seven mentions were documentation.
e2e.sh and check.sh replace the bare npm calls. A long run does not survive
the end of its shell - four full e2e runs died mid-suite with oom_kill 0 -
so e2e.sh start hands the run to a transient game-maker-e2e.service, which
does. e2e.sh status reports the running job or the last result, and calls a
log without a closing line ABORTED rather than reporting the passes it got
to. Both scripts end on an explicit exit line, because set -o pipefail inside
a script does not protect the caller: measured, ./check.sh | tail still
reports 0. Logs carry a timestamp and land in logs/, which is ignored.

A list item may now be a struct. The depth is bounded in the declaration
rather than by a comment: FieldKind (number|text|boolean|color) says what a
struct field holds, ListItemKind adds struct on top and says what a list
holds, so list -> struct -> primitive is the deepest storable shape and
sameValue stays finite. A struct item renders inline in the List tab, which
is why it needs no path in the slot address.
Four paths silently assumed a list item was a primitive: sameValue compared
items with ===, textOf would have printed [object Object], asListItem turned
a struct into text on Set item and Fill, and Index of used indexOf, which is
reference equality and could never have found a struct.
Tetris now runs on bundles. shapes is 112 {x, y} structs instead of 224 loose
numbers, piece and the candidate are structs, so Next move hands back a whole
candidate and each strand packs only the field it changes, since mergeStruct
leaves the rest standing. Declared behavior ports drop 49 -> 35, the master's
variables 18 -> 13, its graph 84/94 -> 69/76 nodes/edges.
Get variables and Set variables declare their ports from a list of variable
names, the way Pack and Expand already do, so one node can read or write
several at once. Renaming a variable rewires them, because there the port key
is the variable name.

The dynamic-port note went to done/ while its tail still listed three things nobody
built: a list of structs, a struct field of kind list, and the unconnected list input.
Measured while extracting: inlineInputDef sends list, struct AND object into its number
branch, so the last item is wider than the note claimed.

The value type was already there: StructValue, textOf, sameValue,
writeTyped/mergeStruct and the struct port type came with the first
part, and Get/Set variable carry any-ports, so a bundle already flowed
through the graph unchanged. What was missing was the declaration.
PropertyDef gains kind 'struct' with a list of fields, VARIABLE_KINDS a
fifth kind, variableDef a fifth parameter. A declared field is a
primitive - a list field would need a nested editor and therefore the
path in the slot address, the same step "a list of structs" is waiting
for. coerceValue now returns PropertyValue rather than FieldValue, the
first value type that is not a field; none of its five callers break.
In the inspector a struct variable is a block, not a tab. The list tab
exists because hundreds of rows fit in no inspector row; a struct is the
opposite case - few fields that fit under each other. It is the port
editor Pack already has, one level down and with a value column: type,
key and default value in one place. A placed object sees the same fields
as plain value rows: overriding yes, declaring no.
Adding or removing a field touches the declaration, the default, the
behavior's value and every instance override in one command, so a stored
value can never keep a shape its declaration no longer promises. The row
handlers read the bundle at the moment of the change rather than closing
over a snapshot - a field writes the whole bundle, so with a snapshot
the second edited row revives the first one's old value. defSignature
carries the fields, otherwise a new row appears only at the next
rebuild.
Fixes a fixture fault this uncovered: step 10 pushed its text object
into the scene without instanceEdits, which overrideSites walks with
Object.entries. AddStructFieldCommand is the first caller to reach it
from that state; the step was green alone and failed three checks in the
full suite.
Moves the dynamic-ports note to done - all three of its parts are built.

GM_STEPS=20, 1-12 or 6,20 takes a subset of the suite, which is seconds
instead of two minutes while one step is being written. Steps live off
what the earlier ones leave behind, so a subset that skips a prerequisite
fails on purpose. The filter had been written as a throwaway script three
times; it belongs in the runner.
The README stops calling a remote browser the way this suite is meant to
be run: with the GPU in use a local run costs ~124 s and about 0.8 of the
four cores here, so GM_REMOTE is a convenience, not a requirement.
The two On key down fields read in milliseconds now, and say so in their
labels. A number field shows three decimals unless a property asks for
fewer, so both params set decimals: 0 – the field reads 300, not 300.000,
and rounds to whole milliseconds while typing or scrubbing. The clock
behind it still counts seconds; the conversion sits at the one place that
reads the properties.
A held key fired once and then nothing, so sliding a Tetris piece sideways or
walking a menu meant building a timer next to every key node. Two settings on
the node do it now: Repeat after and Repeat interval, both in milliseconds so
the usual values stay whole numbers (300, 50) instead of 0.3 and 0.05. A delay
of 0 keeps the node exactly as it was, an interval of 0 means every frame.
The browser's own auto-repeat is deliberately not used - Input.press has always
dropped it - because its delay and rate are an operating-system setting of the
player's, not a game's. The repeat is built from the measured hold time instead,
per node, so two nodes on one key keep their own clocks. The rule itself is a
pure function in keyRepeat.ts and is checked without a world.
Both rows stay off the node body while the delay is 0: two lines of "0" on every
key node in every graph would be noise, and the screenshot said so. NodeDef gains
hiddenParams for that; the inspector still shows them.

The board is a list of 200 numbers now instead of 200 characters, so a cell is
Item at and a landing is Set item instead of seven nodes of string surgery.
The bigger change is that the one 219-node graph is gone. Each step of a frame is
a behavior of its own - Spawn piece, Next move, Fits, Draw piece, Lock piece,
Clear lines, Show lines, Draw board, plus Piece cell for where one of the four
cells of a piece sits. None of them holds state: what they need arrives through
their inputs, every answer leaves through their outputs. That is what lets Fits
answer for turning, moving and falling alike, and Piece cell serve the fit test,
the drawing and the landing instead of being the same twenty nodes three times.
Tetris itself is down to 84 nodes and only says in which order the steps run and
which variable each answer lands in. The smoke test holds it to that: it fails if
a loop or a list access reappears in the master graph.

A behavior node that cannot run looked exactly like a healthy one: no
start node, no behavior picked, a deleted behavior or a self-call were
all silently skipped. The call still had to be forgiving at runtime -- a
dangling reference must not abort a game -- so the fix is diagnosis, not
an exception: describeProblem() names the one reason, the node draws it
in red under its title, and the inspector repeats it where you pick the
behavior. A missing end node is deliberately not a problem: a call is
always synchronous, and the end node only decides which values come back.
Two ways in: a behavior dragged from the asset panel lands in the graph
under the pointer, and double-clicking a call node opens the graph it
runs. Both reuse machinery that already existed -- the asset panel
already starts the drag, and list views already report double clicks.
The e2e module needed its assets at the head of the asset list: after 18
modules the list is long enough that a newly appended row scrolls out of
view, and the press then lands on the panel behind it, starting no drag
at all. That looked exactly like a rejected drop and cost two full runs.

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.
A Tetris example project needs to draw 200 board cells and scan rows
for a full line. Neither is expressible without iteration, so the node
system gets a Repeat node plus the missing text side: Substring, Find
text and To number. The interpreter drops its data cache once per
round -- otherwise every round would recompute with the first round's
values.
Object by name takes its name as an input now, not just as a setting;
addressing "c" + index is impossible otherwise. An unconnected input
reads the stored setting, so saved projects are untouched.
The board itself is a 200-character text, "." for empty. That makes
both operations of Tetris a single expression instead of a loop, and
each frame attempts exactly one move -- rotate beats sideways beats
fall -- so the fit check exists once in the whole graph.

Pause is a sub-state of play, not a third mode: the toolbar button and
Ctrl+Enter stop ticking the world, the clock included. A held frame still
drops the input edges, so resuming does not fire a pause worth of keys in
one go.
The editor run missed the case it is most wanted for. hasEditorRun only
looked at the stored scene objects, so a behavior inside a placed
container never started one; the world now builds from resolveObjects and
writes back through objectRef, keeping the move as an instance edit
instead of baking the instance out.
Keys and clicks go to the run while the Game tab is on screen, where no
key means anything to the editor, and are handed back on leaving it -
held keys released, so nothing keeps walking unpressed.
A behavior object carries a "Run in editor" switch next to Enabled. When
it is on, the behavior ticks outside of Play and works on the saved model
directly - Unity semantics: what it moves is a real change, autosaved and
not undoable.
Input stays with the editor, so On key never fires while typing. The
editor run never bakes placed containers into the model, since that would
silently drop their instanceEdits.
syncToModel reports whether it wrote anything, and the dirty flag is only
raised on change - otherwise a behavior moving something every frame
would trigger ~60 saves a second.
The game tab held a "Press Play" hint where the picture belongs. It now
previews the scene through the active camera, and says "No active camera"
when none is switched on.
Camera choice and its world position moved into activeCamera.ts so both
are testable without Pixi. Entity.x/.y are parent-relative; the viewport
used them as the camera's spot, which framed a parented camera at the
wrong place.
The game view took whatever camera came first in the scene, ignoring the
switch, so `enabled = false` on a camera did nothing and a second camera
never got its turn. `World.activeCamera()` now decides: of the cameras
switched on – the whole parent chain counted, as for any object – the
first in hierarchy order, and none on renders nothing at all. It is asked
per frame, so a graph switching cameras hands the view over immediately.

The pixel-art check falls over sporadically, and its follow-up hid it. That one only
asked whether some pixel across the border is blended – but in the failing case the
`nearest` reading is already blurred, so the `linear` one is too, and the check passed
while saying nothing about whether the switch had any effect at all.
It now also demands that the picture actually changed against the `nearest` reading:
the summed colour distance over the five sample points must exceed 150. Measured on the
readings recorded in the note, a working switch drifts 425 and a hung one 0 – and 30
even if every channel were off by two, so the threshold is not brittle against noise.
Exact equality was the first draft and would have gone green on a single wobbling bit.
Both checks now carry `__gm.textureFilter(file)` in their message, so a failure says by
itself whether the model never switched, the switch missed the GPU sampler, or the
pixels were measured wrong.
The cause of the sporadic failure is still unknown; four hypotheses are measured and
ruled out in the note, which is filed with that stated plainly.
"+ → Texture" opened the machine's file dialog, so a picture that was uploaded once
but lost its asset – an undone import, a deleted asset – was unreachable from the
editor while still sitting on the server. Nothing collects those files, by design.
It now opens a grid of every picture the server holds, with thumbnails: pick one and
"Use image" makes a texture asset on that file, "Upload…" is the way in for bytes the
server does not have yet and lands in the same import as a drop. A tile captioned with
an asset name is one this project already wears – picking it selects that asset instead
of making a second one, since two assets on one file would fight over `filter`.
- `GET ?r=textures` now reports `width`/`height`; a texture asset holds the pixel size,
and reading it off the GPU texture would tie the asset's correctness to load timing.
- `TextureLibrary.load(file)` loads without touching `scaleMode` – a thumbnail must not
restage the filter of a picture the scene is drawing with.
- The grid geometry lives in `texture/imageGrid.ts` as pure functions; inside the widget
no test could reach it.
- The part after an upload is now one function shared by the drop import and the picker,
so "one file = one asset" is stated in a single place.
12 new E2E checks; the strongest one undoes an import, leaving the file on the server
with no asset naming it, and picks exactly that file back out of the dialog.
The inspector already marked an asset value that differs from its schema
default, but the Assets panel gave no hint, so a changed asset looked
like an untouched one until you opened it.
The rule sits next to the existing objectDeviates as a pure function:
assetDeviates asks whether any marked property differs, markedAssetSchema
says which rows the inspector marks at all. buildAssetSection now builds
its rows from that same list, replacing the behavior/rest split it used
to carry, so the list cannot claim a deviation the inspector then fails
to show.
A behavior's variables are deliberately not in it. Their default is
declared on the variable itself, which means the asset value *is* that
default; counting them would paint the fixture's Mover gold while the
inspector beside it marks nothing.
Three things the graph view did differently from the scene view, or not
at all:
Panning moves to the middle button, which works from anywhere – a node
under the pointer included, since NodeView now lets that one button
bubble up. Shift-drag on empty canvas pans too. The left button pulls a
rubber band instead and no longer pans.
Nodes can be selected several at a time: by band, by ctrl/shift-click,
moved together, deleted together, each as one undo step. The selection
model gains `nodeIds` alongside the objects' `objectIds`.
Fit really fits. It used to pin the zoom at 1 and merely centre, so a
graph larger than the view always left nodes hanging out, and it sized
every node with one guessed height although real ones vary with their
port count. Both sums now live in editor/graph/framing.ts as pure
functions, which is what made the defect testable at all.
The band selects any node it overlaps rather than one whose position it
contains, unlike the scene view: nodes are large rectangles, and a band
drawn visibly across one has to catch it.
An instance edit was dropped as soon as its value matched the template
object. With nested containers the template is not what the value falls
back to: the outer container holds an edit for the object below it, and
that one wins. If the inner template happened to carry the same value the
user typed, the edit was thrown away and the value jumped to whatever the
container in between says.
Reported against the Jump-and-Run project: a coin narrowed to 8 inside
"level", then set back to the sprite's own 24 in the scene, snapped back
to 8. Reproduced through the inspector before touching anything.
InstanceTarget now offers `base`: the template with the edits of every
container in between woven in. Everything that judges deviation uses it -
setOverride/setName/setPosition, both Revert commands, and the gold marks
in the inspector. Writing still goes into the real template, which is
where "apply to container" belongs.
`base` is built on every read. Apply writes into the template and then
asks whether the edit still deviates, so a base captured beforehand would
answer for the template as it was - the e2e suite caught exactly that.
Also in here, because it corrects the commit before it: placing an asset
by double-clicking its row is gone, as asked for in asset-doppelklick.md.
Dragging is the only way to place now. That took AssetPanel.place, the
PlacementTarget interface, Editor.placementTarget and the two worldCenter()
methods that existed only to feed it. A double-click on a scene asset still
makes it the active scene.
The context menu entry is gone; dragging replaces it entirely. The drop
target is the view under the pointer, not the active tab, so the same
gesture works for scenes and for container templates.
While dragging, an outline shows the footprint the object will have plus
a crosshair on its origin, turning red when the drop would be refused.
Preview and command share one function (placementRejection), so the
outline cannot promise something the drop then rejects.
A left-press used to select the list row immediately. Since the container
tab follows the selection, it switched to the very container being dragged
and every drop would have nested it inside itself. The list now selects on
release without a drag: picking something up is not the same as choosing it.
Dragging an edge now rings the port it would connect to and snaps the line
there. A drop on a node's body takes that node's first free compatible port,
or the last compatible one when none is free, replacing its link. A drop into
empty space opens the palette filtered to the node types the edge could reach
at all, and the picked node arrives wired - node and link as one undo step,
so a single undo takes back the whole gesture.
The decision of what fits what lives in core/graph/dropTarget.ts as pure
functions, tested directly; the canvas only draws the answer. The palette
takes an optional filter rather than knowing about drags.
Verified remote on the Windows box (GPU): ALL PASSED, 284 checks.
Dropped in via the share during the last task: asset drag and drop,
graph edge drag UX, multiple cameras, nested override reset, and gold
text colour for assets. Nothing implemented yet.
An inspector label whose value deviates from its base was drawn bold, which is
easy to miss next to the regular labels and says nothing in the hierarchy, where
a folded subtree could hide a change entirely.
The colour now lives as a theme token (`override`, #f2c84b) used by both the
inspector labels and the hierarchy rows. Whether a row deviates is decided by
`src/core/properties/deviation.ts`: `objectDeviates` compares an object against
what it follows -- the container template for content, the asset otherwise --
and `deviationMarks` carries the mark up to every ancestor, so a folded subtree
still shows that something inside was changed.
`deviationMarks` takes the stored holder, not the resolved one: in the resolved
view container content looks like an ordinary object and `instanceTargetOf`
would compare against the asset, marking every instance.
Covered by 3 unit tests and 5 e2e checks, including one that strips an object's
own overrides to prove the row stays gold for a deviating child and restores
them byte for byte. Full suite remote on the RTX 4070: 275 checks, all passed.
