adminandClaude Opus 5.5 bc688f3efc Refactoring round 7: split BehaviorSystem, fewer copies (#85)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m50s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 12m3s
Recurring cleanup round over the code since round 6 (056a622), 105
commits. Behaviour is unchanged. Duplicated code in src went from 29
clones with 229 lines (0.32 %) to 14 clones with 109 lines (0.15 %),
measured with jscpd and the same settings as round 6.

- BehaviorSystem.ts shrinks from 941 to 589 lines. Collecting the
  pulses (keys, timers, collisions, animations) moved to
  behaviorPulses.ts. The NodeContext the nodes receive moved to
  behaviorContext.ts. Imports from outside stay the same, TimeScaled
  is still exported from BehaviorSystem.ts.
- PointKindButton and drawPointGrip replace the "Point:" button with
  its menu and the point and handle drawing that the curve and the
  vector art tab each had on their own.
- lerpVec, cubicAt and splitCubic in src/core/util/vec.ts replace four
  copies of the cubic curve and two de Casteljau splits.
- mapNested in Properties.ts is the one walk over lists and structs
  that liveObjects and objectRefs did separately. withFieldRenamed
  and withoutField replace three copies of renaming a struct field
  and two of removing one.
- jsonBody and staleRevision build the JSON body and turn a 409 into
  StaleRevisionError for all stores. The auth store turns a 401 into
  its error in one place.
- Smaller helpers: structAssetFrom for the two "Make struct type"
  commands, shownObject in the inspector, selectedItem for the size
  gizmo and the polygon corners, solidTiles in the tilemap collision,
  requireVariablesAsset and requireBehaviorVariable.
- Left as is on purpose: the plain forwarding from the collision and
  physics systems to Solids, the pointer wiring of the canvases and
  the identical last lines of the two make commands.
- Removed unused code: tilemapTileIds and tilemapsUsing were never
  called since #128 and #131. EditorState.runtimeProject became unused
  with GameRun in #266. The assetId getter of the make commands was
  read only by a test.
- 60 values used only in their own file lost their export. The shader
  and particle node catalogues stay exported as in round 6.
- Five comments that told history now describe the current state. The
  doc comment of BehaviorSystem sits on the class again.
- README lists the struct, clip area and curve assets and mentions the
  game link from #266.

Findings:
- Deleting a tile that is painted on a tilemap leaves its cells in
  place, and they draw nothing. The delete dialog does not mention the
  tilemaps. That was probably the job of the unused tilemapsUsing.
  Left as is, because fixing it changes behaviour.
- The solid filter for tile surfaces was untested. A bent filter
  stayed green. A new test in tests/core/surface.test.ts now fails
  against it.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 195 files, 2815 tests, exit 0 (one test removed with
  tilemapsUsing, one added for tile surfaces).
- Full e2e run: ALL PASSED, 1580 checks.
- Smokes jumprun, tetris, actor: 24, 19 and 21 checks, all passed.
  The example project files were restored byte for byte afterwards.
- Counter-checks, 12, all fail as expected: 10 in unit tests (among
  them mapNested, splitCubic, cubicAt, staleRevision, the stay pulse,
  the late timer and the time scale), 2 in the browser (Point button
  always enabled fails 47, selectedItem without a hit fails 29).

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 f84defb9b6 Pick an object of the same scene for an Object variable (#258)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m32s
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 10m2s
An Object variable could only be set by a graph while the game runs.
A placed object always showed "(null)", although the other objects of
its scene are there to choose from and the runtime can already find
any object by its id. Now the placed object stores a reference to one
of them, and the running game turns it into the real object.

- Stored as {"$object": "<id>"}. The empty placeholder stays as it
  was, so old projects load unchanged and empty still means "(null)".
- The row of an Object variable on a placed object is a dropdown with
  None and every object of the scene, indented like the Hierarchy.
  The same goes for Object fields in structs and Object items in
  lists, also in the Variables and List tabs.
- The behavior asset keeps "(null)". An asset has no scene, so "Apply
  to asset" is gone from Object rows.
- The runtime resolves the reference when the Variables or Properties
  node reads it. A destroyed target reads as null, a missing one shows
  "(missing)" in the row.
- Inside a container only objects of the same container are offered.
  The reference keeps the template id, so every placement finds its
  own copy.
- Deleting the target clears the reference in the same undo step.
  Paste points references inside the pasted group at the copies and
  leaves outside references alone. Create container and Unpack carry
  references along with the new ids.
- A value a graph writes while running stays in the run. The scene
  keeps the picked object, also in "Run in editor".

Found on the way:

- Setting an override coerced every object slot to empty, in plain
  values, struct fields and list items. The shared objectPlace() now
  keeps the reference.

Not done:

- No eyedropper to pick in the scene, the dropdown is enough for now.
- Deleting a template object in the container editor does not clean up
  references in other scenes. They read as null there.

Tests:

- ./check.sh: 187 files, 2724 tests, CHECK EXIT 0
- e2e 1-9, 51, 57: ALL PASSED, 389 checks
- e2e 1, 57 on the final bundle: ALL PASSED, 17 checks
- 13 unit tests in object-references.test.ts, 5 checks in e2e 57
- Counter-checks: 8 unit breaks fail their tests, the browser break
  without a pick list fails 57b-57d

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 7979b8ff19 Let structs and lists hold objects across behavior runs (#238)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m28s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 10m14s
An object could only live in a dedicated object variable, kept in slots
beside the variable bag. Struct fields and list items could not hold
one, so a spawned object packed into a struct or list was lost. This
replaces the slots with one mechanism for all three places.

- "No object" has one resting form everywhere: {"$object": ""}. A
  running game can tell an object slot from an empty text that way.
- During play the object handle lives directly in the value, also
  nested in structs and lists. objectSlots.ts and the special paths for
  Keep and Properties are gone.
- liveObjects.ts strips objects to (null) at every exit: overrides the
  editor run writes back to the scene, saved values of persistent
  Variables assets, live values in the inspector, and the world
  snapshot of the test hooks (objects as names there).
- A destroyed object reads as (null) through isAlive, alone, in a
  struct field or as a list item.
- "+ Field" and "+ Item" offer Object. The inspector and the list tab
  show a fixed (null) row without input.
- Lists from Raycast all stay objects when written to a variable.
  Before they turned into names.
- A struct that only changes by an object writes no override. A list
  that grows by an object writes [(null)], its length really changed.

Found on the way: CI at 98211a8 failed only in e2e 21d. #237 added
asset to the field kinds without updating that fixed expectation. 21d
now expects ...,animation,asset,object,struct.

No project on the server has object variables, so no old data is
affected.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 169 files, 2475 tests, CHECK EXIT 0.
- e2e 6, 21, 23, 32: ALL PASSED, 213 checks.
- object-variable.test.ts rewritten: variable, struct field and list
  item over several frames, destroyed objects, nothing in scene, file
  or save, editor run reload, Keep.
- New e2e 21d-ii adds an Object item by click. 21d and 23k updated.
- 7 counter-probes, each fails 1 to 9 tests. Originals back via cmp.
- Not tested on its own: stripping of inspector live values and the
  names in the test snapshot, the "+ Field -> Object" menu by click.
- e2e check total 1407, only calculated.
