adminandClaude Opus 5.5 d6fd000160 Let a behavior hear the end of an animation it played itself
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m11s
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 12m9s
A behavior that played an animation on the parent of its owner never
heard it finish. On animation finished listened to the owner and to
what stands below it, and the parent stands above.

- Play animation notes on the player which behavior asked for it.
- On animation finished hears, as before, every animation on the
  owner or below it, and now also every animation the behavior
  played itself, on whatever object. Its output object names that
  object.
- Two behaviors that both played the same animation on the same
  object each hear its end once.
- A behavior that is called by Run behavior or heard by an On node
  counts as the behavior it sits in.
- The description of the node and the engine prompt say so.

Tests:
- Gate on melektaus-atx: 218 files, 3392 tests, CHECK EXIT 0.
- Two new unit tests: the behavior hears the animation on the parent
  of its owner while a bystander does not, and two starters hear it
  once each.
- Both counter-probes bite.
- e2e 6,17-26 on melektaus-atx: 480 checks, all pass.
- No new e2e check, and nothing was looked at in the browser. The
  rule for called and heard behaviors has no test of its own.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 7dd3ae1131 Tie two objects with a hinge, a spring, a rope or for good (#154)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m19s
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 11m41s
Two bodies could not be connected: no door on a hinge, no lamp on
a rope, no wheel on an axle. This is the first step of the issue,
the four joints without a motor. The slider and the motors follow
in a second step under the same issue.

- Joint is a new asset type, placed as a child of the object it
  holds, like a collider or a rigidbody. "Add joint…" in the
  object menu makes one or places one the project has. An object
  takes as many as it needs.
- Where the joint sits is the point it holds its object at. A
  hinge and a fixed joint have that one point only. A spring and a
  rope end at a connected anchor on the other object, counted in
  that object's own units, or in the scene's without one.
- The rows follow the type: length, stiffness and damping for a
  spring, length for a rope, an angle limit for a hinge. Length 0
  takes the distance the two ends were placed at. The limit counts
  from how the two were placed.
- The connected object is an object reference in the schema of the
  type. Pasting, containers and removing treat it as they treat
  every reference since #258.
- shownFor is a new schema option: a row is shown while an enum of
  the same bag holds one of the named values.
- The object needs a rigidbody, its own or one further up. Without
  one the joint holds nothing and the console says so once.
- A connected object without a rigidbody is a moving anchor: the
  joint has a kinematic body of its own that follows it.
- A connected object destroyed while playing makes the joint let go
  with a hint. Removed in the editor the reference empties, so the
  joint holds on to the scene. The issue asked for "inactive" there.
- "Add joint" ties two objects while the game runs, from a joint
  asset as the template. Destroy on the joint lets go, there is no
  Break joint node. Destroy with keep children takes the joints
  along with the object.
- The scene view draws a line from each joint to what it holds on
  to and rings the held point. A selected spring or rope has a
  round handle on its far end, and dragging it is one undo step.
- Joints hold in Play only. The editor run simulates nothing
  (#148), and the inspector of a placed joint says so.
- Rapier counts a revolute joint's limits absolutely, not from the
  start, so the placed angle is added. Measured with a probe.
- The + menu has 25 types now and no longer fits under its button
  on a canvas 800 high. It scrolls there, and e2e 04 scrolls to
  the last entry instead of expecting it in view.

Tests:
- Gate on melektaus-atx for this state: 218 files, 3390 tests
  (3336 + 54), exit 0.
- e2e 1-16,24,39-46,51,52,57,58 on melektaus-atx: 831 checks, all
  pass. Module 41 alone: 25 checks (21 + 4).
- 54 new unit tests: 40 in joints.test.ts (rope, spring, pendulum,
  limit, fixed, the other end, the node, containers, paste), 6 for
  the line the scene view draws, 4 catalog cases of the node. The
  remaining 4 come from tests that make a case per asset type.
- Four new e2e checks in module 41: Add joint from the menu, the
  rope to the hook with its line and handle, dragging the handle
  with one undo, the bob hanging in Play next to one that falls.
- e2e 04, 40 and 46 count the new type in their lists.
- 21 of 22 unit counter-probes fail their tests. The other one is
  equivalent: Rapier ignores removing a joint that left with its
  body, the guard stays.
- Three browser counter-probes fail their checks (2, 1 and 2).
- One screenshot looked at: icon, line, handle and the rope rows.
- The e2e sum of 1691 is counted (1687 + 4, 1687 measured by CI
  on e066613). The full suite and the smokes did not run.
- Not seen in the browser: spring, hinge with limit and fixed
  joint, the node Add joint, a connected object that moves, joints
  inside a container, the released game. Unit tests cover them
  but the last. Limits under a mirrored parent are not handled.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 46c620ae3b Give a behavior more ways in and out, and hear it as an event (#294)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 2m48s
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 13m34s
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.

  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.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 b5339b96c2 Tell a graph the frame a key went down or came up
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 2m49s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 13m49s
Key is down says whether a key is held. To act once on a press, a
graph had only the events On key down and On key up. A behavior
that is called by another one and reads its input as data had to
keep the state of the last frame in a variable of its own.

- Key was pressed is true for the one frame in which the key goes
  down, the frame On key down fires in. Key was released is the
  same for the frame the key comes up.
- Both sit next to Key is down in the palette and have the key as
  their only setting.
- NodeContext gains wasKeyPressed and wasKeyReleased. The behavior
  context answers them from justPressed and justReleased of the
  input, through keyName, so a key saved as "A" meets the key "a".
- No repeat. On key down may fire again while a key stays held, a
  held key is pressed once here.
- When the window loses the keyboard, every held key counts as
  released in that frame, as On key up has it.
- The engine prompt of the benchmark names the two nodes.

Tests:
- Gate on melektaus-atx right before this commit: 213 files, 3278
  tests (3264 + 14), exit 0.
- e2e 18,20,43 on melektaus-atx: 57 checks, all pass.
- Ten unit tests in key-edges.test.ts on a real world, four cases
  in the node catalog.
- Eight counter-probes all fail their tests. One did not at first
  (the case of the key saved on the node), a test was added.
- No e2e check of its own, the sum stays 1676. The nodes were not
  looked at in the browser, neither in the palette nor with a real
  keyboard.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 f02adabcf9 Show the type an arithmetic shader node really puts out (#219)
The result of Add, Multiply, Mix and the other arithmetic nodes of
a shader graph was drawn as any, whatever went in. The compiler
already lifts a colour on any side to a colour result, so the pin
said less than the code knew. A colour result could also be wired
into a number input, and the shader then failed to compile.

- liftedType in core/shader/nodes.ts is the one rule. The compiler
  reads it when it lifts two operands, and the editor reads it
  through liftedPortType for the ports it draws.
- A SharedPortGroup may bring its own rule as agree. Without one
  it is agreedType, as before. The thirteen arithmetic nodes share
  their type by liftedPortType.
- Only the any inputs decide. An input nothing feeds counts as the
  number typed into it. t, edge, exponent, min and max have no say.
- The type travels through a chain of such nodes without code of
  its own, because #210 hands a shared type on.
- In a ring the result stays any, unless a colour has settled it.
- A number may feed a colour input. Without that a number result
  no longer fitted Output.color, although the compiler spreads it
  over three channels. The rule sits in portsCompatible, but only
  the shader graph has colour ports.
- A colour result no longer fits a number input. An edge laid
  before the colour came in stays and is drawn in the danger
  colour, and the node at its end names the problem.
- The nine shaders in the stored projects (108 edges) all stay
  valid under the new rule.

Tests:
- Gate on melektaus-atx: 212 files, 3260 tests (3240 + 20), exit 0.
  The gate right before this commit ran on the tree of this and
  the next commit together, with the same numbers.
- e2e 28 on melektaus-atx: 81 checks, all pass.
- e2e 1-31: 1059 pass, 1 fail in module 18 (the editor clock read
  1.97 s after a stop). A rerun of 1-18 passed with 602 checks and
  0.18 s. 1-31 was not run in full again.
- No full run and no smokes. The sum of 1676 (1673 + 3) is reckoned.
- Twenty unit tests in shader-port-types.test.ts, one of them runs
  all thirteen nodes through every mix of number and colour and
  compares what is drawn with the code made.
- Two tests in shaders.test.ts now lay the edge first and bring the
  colour in after, the only order that still wires such a graph.
- Three e2e checks in module 28 with the real mouse: a colour into
  Multiply, the red edge with its message, and the colour result
  refused at alpha and taken at color.
- Fifteen unit counter-probes and two browser counter-probes all
  fail their tests.
- Not checked in the browser: the one-input nodes, Mix and the
  ring, and a number wired straight into a colour input. Nothing
  was looked at after the build.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 9ca220a285 Hand a shared port type on through a chain of nodes (#210)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 2m51s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 14m44s
Since #207 the output of First not empty or Select takes the type
its inputs agree on. A second node of that kind behind the first
stayed any, because the first one answered with the any it was
registered with. That was the guard against a circle of such nodes
asking each other forever. The issue asks for the type to travel
through the chain. Answered there: measure with 50 nodes and build
no cache, and the painted input pins follow along.

- shapedDef in core/graph/nested.ts takes a Trail in place of the
  flag inherit. Its set open holds the nodes still being asked. A
  node reached a second time reports the any it was registered
  with, which ends a circle.
- The map done of the Trail keeps each answer of one question. A
  node feeding both inputs of the next is asked once, so the work
  does not double with every link of a chain.
- ownShape is the part of shapedDef that builds the ports before a
  shared group has its say. It is split off, nothing in it changed.
- Inputs stay any and only outputs inherit, as in #207. An edge
  that turns invalid further down is left in place and drawn in the
  danger colour.
- paintedInputs uses one Trail for all pins of a node, so the pins
  show the type handed on through the chain.
- Nothing is cached between two changes. A chain of 50 resolved in
  about 10 ms where it took 2 ms before, measured earlier in this
  round and not again for this commit.

Tests:
- Gate on melektaus-atx: 211 files, 3240 tests (3227 + 13), exit 0
- e2e 1-6 on melektaus-atx: 298 checks, all pass
- e2e 4,6,18,19,20,23,24,26,28,31,36,43,53: 558 checks, all pass
- No full run and no smokes. The sum of 1673 (1671 + 2) is reckoned,
  1671 is what CI counted for c88f57c.
- Fourteen unit tests in shared-port-type.test.ts: a chain of two
  and of three, mixed kinds, a mixed and an open input, undo at the
  front, a circle of two, a node feeding itself, behind a circle, an
  invalid edge further down, the chain of 40 asked once per node,
  the chain of 50, and two for the pins. The test saying the type
  does not pass through a second node is gone, hence 13 more.
- Two e2e checks in module 06: the second node takes number, and a
  text at the front opens the whole chain again.
- Four unit counter-probes and one browser counter-probe all fail
  their tests. With the old behaviour only the chain check fails.
- Not checked in the browser: the circle and the chain of three,
  which have unit tests only. Nothing was looked at after the build.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 275e50af01 Let a tile report a touch instead of blocking it (#160)
A tile could be solid, one-way and scaled, but not report without
blocking. Water, lava, spikes or a goal zone needed a trigger object
of their own laid over the map. Now a tile has a switch Trigger, and
the collision events name the tile and the cell they met.

- A tile has the switch "Trigger (reports, never blocks)" under
  Solid. Its cells hold nothing up: no Move, no falling body, no
  ray. They raise On collision enter, stay and exit with the tilemap
  as other.
- The three events have the outputs tile, cell x and cell y. Without
  a tile, tile is empty and the cell is -1, -1.
- The three events have the input per cell. Off, the default, gives
  one event per area: cells of the same tile that touch side by
  side. On gives one event per cell.
- The scene view outlines trigger cells in yellow like a trigger
  collider, merged to rectangles but never with solid cells.
- Is touching with the map counts trigger tiles, and Set tile works
  while the game runs.
- Both systems find the touches with the same overlap check in
  runtime/systems/tileTriggers.ts, not through the physics engine.

Decided here:

- Trigger wins over Solid. A tile with both does not block, as with
  a collider.
- Water beside lava is two areas, and so are two ponds that touch
  only at a corner.
- An area names the cell nearest to the centre of the collider, and
  on exit the cell it named last.
- The solid cells of a map still do not name their tile.
- Normal, impulse and point are 0, as with a trigger collider.
- Collision scale and outlines shape a trigger cell like a solid
  one. One-way, friction and bounciness have no effect.

Tests:
- Gate on stein2: 205 files, 3104 tests (3067 + 37), exit 0
- e2e 39,40: 106 checks. e2e 1-8,39-43: 490 checks. Both on
  melektaus-atx. No full run, the sum of 1648 (1645 + 3) is
  reckoned and CI measures it.
- 37 unit tests in tests/core/tile-triggers.test.ts, nearly all
  against both systems
- Three e2e checks with a real mouse in block 40l-iv
- 24 unit counter-probes fail tests. Two did not at first, tests
  were added for them.
- Two browser counter-probes fail their checks
- Two screenshots looked at (yellow outline, the node with per cell)

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

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

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

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

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 c1cc80bb45 Add nodes that ask whether an animation still runs (#233)
A graph could start, pause and stop an animation and hear it finish,
but it could not ask in between whether one runs or how far it is.
Two data nodes answer that now.

- Animation playing takes an object and an animation and gives
  playing, progress and time left (s). It answers at the moment it is
  read: right after Play animation in the same pass it says on, and in
  the frame On animation finished fires it says off.
- With Animation at None it answers for the running animation started
  last on the object.
- Animation length gives the seconds of one pass, from the timeline
  and the frame rate alone.
- The rule is a pure function in src/core/model/animation.ts
  (playerStatus, leadingPlayer). The nodes reach an animation's
  length through a new field animation on GraphLookup.
- animationPort is exported so both nodes show the same picker as
  Play animation.

Decided in the issue: a Once (reset) counts as running while it blends
out, and progress and time left also hold for Loop and Ping-pong, at
the place of the playhead. On Ping-pong progress falls again on the
way back and time left counts to the next turn.

Decided here, the issue says nothing on it:
- A paused animation does not count as running. Progress and time
  left stand still.
- One that Stop animation fades out does not count as running, and
  its time left is 0.
- Time left of a Once (reset) includes its blend out. While it blends
  out progress is 1 and time left is the rest of the fade.

Finding, not fixed: on the node the name of the chosen animation
overlaps the output label progress in the same row. That comes from
the fixed node width in NodeView and was seen in the Fit view only.

Tests:
- Gate: 198 files, 2903 tests (2891 + 12), exit 0
- e2e 1-6: 282 checks passed, 06 has +2 for block 6z-ix
- Nine unit counter-probes fail, 1 to 4 tests each
- The browser counter-probe fails 6z-ix with ["false","false"]
- e2e total 1615 is computed, not measured in a full run. The smokes
  were not run.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 0f6e628616 Check the declared type when a graph writes a typed variable (#271)
A list variable with an item type only kept its shape in the editor.
A graph could write any list into it at runtime, and the List node had
no type at all. Now the declaration decides what a write may store.

- Writing a list into a typed list variable leaves out every item that
  does not have exactly the fields of the type. The rest is written and
  the console names each item that was left out, like Add item does.
- The same rule holds for typed list fields inside a struct variable
  and for lists inside typed items, at any depth.
- A typed struct variable refuses a struct with a field the type does
  not have, and a value that is no struct. A struct with missing fields
  still merges in as before, so a partial Pack keeps working.
- The check runs in the Variables node (own variables and Variables
  assets) and in the Properties node when it sets a behavior variable
  of another object.
- Ports learn their declaration through GraphLookup: what a variable
  declares about its type, and which behavior owns a graph. The rule
  itself lives in the new src/core/graph/typedValues.ts, fitsType moved
  there from SetItem.
- The List node gets a Type setting. With a type its items are shaped
  and marked, follow the struct asset, count when the type is deleted
  and offer Split into fields in For each. The mark never reaches the
  running game.
- A type on a List node holding something other than structs is
  refused with a console line.
- Setting the List node back to None removes the marks, unlike a list
  variable. A node list has no per-item type row, so marked items could
  never be freed there. Undo brings everything back.
- tests/core/kinds.test.ts looked for the value as the first parameter
  of a literal. Type now comes first on the List node, so the test
  finds the value by its key.

Tests:
- Gate: 198 files, 2869 tests (2856 + 13), CHECK EXIT 0
- e2e 55: 19 checks (+55j write at runtime, +2 for 55k List node)
- e2e 54: 16 checks, smokes 24 / 19 / 21
- Five mutations, each fails between 1 and 4 tests
- e2e total 1606 is computed (1603 + 3), no full run

issue now also asks to fix bugs and small inconsistencies found on the
way, so unlike the rounds before, this one changes behaviour in a few
places. Duplicated code in api went from 23 clones with 228 lines to
none (jscpd, at least 50 tokens). In src it stays at 22 clones with
271 lines, the same before and after.

Bugs:
- nginx served project and snapshot files as they were, so anyone who
  knew a project id could read it without signing in. Every file the
  API writes now goes through AtomicFile (temp file, mode, rename).
  Projects, snapshots, releases, accounts and sessions are 0640, and
  nginx answers 403 for them.
- Any signed-in account could delete a shared image, font or sound,
  which projects of other accounts may wear. Deleting one is now for
  administrators only. The editor never deleted a file, so the
  client's delete is gone.
- Two saves of one project could run at once. The lock file was
  removed after each save, so a waiting save and the next one locked
  different files. The lock file now stays, and deleting a project
  takes the lock as well.
- Bytes that are no picture got a 500 instead of a 422, because the
  error handler also threw for warnings silenced with @.
- A session file was rewritten in place. A request reading it at that
  moment found it empty and was signed out. It is replaced atomically.
- Delete did nothing for a shape picked in the vector art list. Delete
  now goes through removeSelection, one case per kind of selection,
  and a kind without a case fails the type check.

Inconsistencies:
- Escape on a question does what its Cancel does. Cancel on "Delete
  project?" and "Restore snapshot?" leads back to the picker or the
  list like the other questions did, and so does deleting a project.
- Editor texts use American spelling throughout, like the port names:
  48 British spellings in 45 lines (colour, centre, initialised).
- objectName and groupName replace eleven copies of "own name, else
  the asset's" and three of "Group". One copy fell back to the object
  id instead of "?".

Duplicates, dead code, comments:
- routeFiles serves images, fonts and sounds instead of three copies.
  HashedFileStore holds what the three stores shared: keeping a file
  under its hash with its name, listing and deleting. The stores keep
  only which bytes they take and what a record says.
- AtomicFile replaces nine copies of temp file plus rename.
- removeShapes is the one way the canvas, the inspector button and
  Delete take shapes out.
- GraphInterpreter.fire was called by tests only. The 54 calls use a
  helper in tests/helpers.ts now.
- FileStore.delete, HttpFileStore.delete and the PluginApi type were
  unused. A doc comment in actions.ts sat above the wrong function.

Checked and left as is:
- solidCells is used by tests only. It is the per-cell view before the
  merge into rectangles, the one place the largest-scale rule shows.
- An undo checker ran all 124 commands of the unit tests and compared
  the project before and after undo. The only differences are empty
  ports, groups and notes lists where there were none, which the file
  format drops anyway.

Docs:
- README: the check sum.
- Wiki, own commit: API (admin-only deletes, 422, file modes, lock
  file), Home (the "Not yet" list named three things that exist),
  Concepts, Keyboard, Vector art, Architecture and Development, and
  the 38 characters Gitea flagged as ambiguous on eight pages.
- .gitignore: the lock files, and pasted-*.png in any folder, which
  keeps the screenshot archive out.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 195 files, 2817 tests, exit 0 (+2 for the name helpers).
- PHP: accounts 52 in the web container and 53 in the CI image with
  the race test (+2), snapshots 15 (+1), releases 20.
- Full e2e run: ALL PASSED, 1586 checks (+6 in 12, 47, 49 and 50).
- Smokes jumprun, tetris, actor: 24, 19 and 21 checks. The example
  project files were restored byte for byte afterwards.
- The file stores of HEAD and of this commit give byte-identical
  output for the live folders and for store, list and delete in a
  throwaway folder.
- Counter-checks, all fail as expected: a 500 for bad bytes fails 12,
  no admin check fails 49, removing the lock file again loses saves
  in 3 of 3 runs (151 to 170 of 321), Delete ignoring shapes fails 47,
  Escape that only closes fails 50, and dropping the shape case fails
  the type check (TS2366).

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 a7e793f6de Keep many spawned behaviors from eating the frame
A scene with 200 spawned gold pickups, each with a Pickup behavior of
97 nodes, dropped the game to about 14 fps. The graphs themselves ran
only a dozen nodes per pickup and frame. The cost was the lookup: for
every data input the interpreter searched all edges and all nodes of
the graph linearly and computed the port shape of the node again.

- New module core/graph/graphIndex.ts builds tables once per graph:
  nodes by id, edges by node and port, node types. Port shapes are
  cached as well.
- BehaviorSystem shares one cache between all its instances and
  clears it in syncFromModel. A graph changed during a run applies
  from the next frame on, as before.
- An interpreter without a cache, as in most tests, searches as
  before.

Measured on the scene Performance test (headless per frame, browser
fps on a throwaway copy of the project):

- Headless: about 21 ms down to about 3.6 ms per frame.
- Browser, about 505 entities: 13.6 fps up to 23 fps.
- Browser, about 320 entities: 32.3 fps up to 48 fps.
- After the fix behaviors take about 15 % of the browser profile.
  The rest is the editor mirroring the game into the model and
  rebuilding its panels, which is a separate change.

Tests:

- ./check.sh: 192 files, 2786 tests, CHECK EXIT 0.
- Full e2e run (local): ALL PASSED, 1551 checks.
- tests/core/graph-index.test.ts: 2 tests. The tables return the
  same as the search, in the same edge order. A graph changed during
  a run applies from the next frame.
- Counter-check: without clearing the cache in syncFromModel the
  second test fails with ['before'].

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 5fbc6eb088 Set the order in which event nodes run across behaviors (#264)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m42s
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 11m7s
Which of two events ran first depended on hidden lists: the order of
the behavior instances and the order in which nodes were created. A
graph had no way to say that one On update must run before another,
and an On update of one behavior could run before a key event of
another.

- A frame now runs event kind by event kind over all behaviors: On
  disable and On enable, key down, key up, key held, timer, collision
  enter, stay and exit, animation finished, click, mouse wheel and at
  last On update.
- All 17 event nodes have a field Order, a whole number, default 0,
  negative allowed. Within one kind a lower Order runs earlier, no
  matter which behavior holds the node.
- On a tie the current hierarchy decides from top to bottom, then the
  order in which the nodes were created. The old rule that a behavior
  enabled later goes to the end is gone.
- The node shows Order: 5 only when the value is not 0, so existing
  graphs look the same.
- The rule lives as pure functions in core/graph/eventOrder.ts. The
  interpreter can now fire a single event node.

Changes in existing projects:

- An object destroyed in a frame gets no further event in that frame.
  On disable and On destroy still come at the end of the frame.
- New instances get all their On start first, then all On enable.
  Teardown runs all On disable first, then all On destroy.
- State events follow right after the event kind that caused them.
- Four unit tests had fixed the old order and are adjusted:
  two in behavior-events, one in physics-system, one in key-repeat.

Tests:

- ./check.sh: 191 files, 2784 tests, CHECK EXIT 0.
- GM_STEPS=1-6: ALL PASSED, 280 checks.
- Full e2e run (local): ALL PASSED, 1551 checks, measured.
- tests/core/event-order.test.ts: 11 tests for the rule, the field on
  all 17 nodes, order across behaviors, key before update, two nodes
  in one graph, On start, hierarchy after late enable and reorder at
  runtime, state events, save and load.
- e2e 6z-viii, 2 checks with real mouse and keyboard: Order -1 set in
  the inspector shows on the node, and a run logs B, A although B is
  lower in the hierarchy.
- Counter-checks: 5 in unit tests and 1 in the browser, all fail as
  expected. The originals were restored and checked with cmp.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 0c41cb97b1 Clip the children of an object to a clip area (#260)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m43s
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 11m7s
An inventory grid could not scroll, because nothing could cut a child
off at an edge. A game also had no way to hear the mouse wheel. Both
are needed for a scrolling list, a dialog text or a window with more
content than room.

- A new object type Clip area has width and height and turns, scales
  and mirrors with its parent. The size gizmo drags width and height.
- Everything below a clip area, on every level, is drawn only inside
  its rectangle, in the Scene view as in the game. Nested areas cut to
  their intersection. The rule works on a convex polygon, so a turned
  area cuts right as well.
- On click, Is hovered and On mouse wheel do not hit a cut-off part.
  The Scene view does not pick it either.
- In the Scene view the area is a dashed frame that is grabbed only at
  its edge, so a click inside lands on the content. The eye under
  Shape hides the frame. In the game the area is invisible.
- While an object below an area or one of its parents is selected, the
  Scene view shows the cut-off part at 30 % opacity and it can be
  grabbed there. The rule lives in core/properties/clip.ts.
- The Properties node knows the type Clip area.
- The new event node On mouse wheel fires by the rule of On click. Its
  delta counts in notches, positive is down, and a frame's turns
  arrive as one value. It also gives x and y.

Limits:

- Only sprites and texts show the faded rest. Tilemaps and particles
  are cut and can be grabbed when open, but are not shown faded.
- Masks by texture shape are out, as noted in the issue.

Tests:

- ./check.sh: 2773 tests, CHECK EXIT 0.
- Full e2e run (local): ALL PASSED, 1549 checks, measured.
- tests/core/clip-areas.test.ts: 12 tests for the cut rule, scene and
  game, save and load, hits, the wheel with and without owner, the
  notch conversion and the open rule.
- e2e 58, 5 checks with real mouse and wheel: the scene cuts (74 of 74
  red inside, 0 outside), a click on the cut part picks nothing, the
  selected rest is faded and grabbable, the game cuts, one notch
  logs 1.
- e2e 04 and 46 count the object types and the eye rows. They now
  include Clip area.
- Counter-checks: 6 in unit tests and 3 in the browser, all fail as
  expected. The originals were restored and checked with cmp.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 ef2600493f Read the pixel size of a texture in a graph (#262)
A graph had no way to know how big a picture is. An icon sprite with a
fixed size therefore stretched every icon of another size, an 8x8
pixel-art icon in a 16x16 slot was drawn twice as big.

- New data node Texture size. It takes a texture, a frame or a pixel
  art and hands out width and height in pixels, 0 x 0 for none.
  Wired into a sprite's width and height, the picture shows pixel for
  pixel.
- GraphLookup gets textureSize. The project answers it with the same
  pictureSize rule a sprite uses to size itself.

Tests:

- ./check.sh: 2749 tests, CHECK EXIT 0.
- 2 catalog cases (a picture, no picture) and one test against a real
  project: pixel-art sheet, single frame, missing texture.
- No e2e check and no counter-check for this node.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 4e6aeb5f72 Query objects in bulk and filter, count or test a list (#259)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m36s
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 10m6s
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.

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

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 38e0f656be Split a struct output into one pin per field (#256)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m32s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 10m45s
Reading one field of a struct needed its own Expand node, even where
the graph already knows the struct type. A split output shows the
fields directly on the node, so a Find … Match test becomes a single
Equals and the wires keep running left to right.

- Right-clicking an output pin offers "Split into <Type> fields" when
  the type is known and "Split as …" for every other struct asset.
  The output is replaced by one pin per field with the field's kind.
- The type is known for typed struct variables, typed Pack/Expand,
  fields of another split and item of For each, Find, Match and Item
  at over a typed list (portSplits.ts).
- Right-clicking a field pin offers "Recombine". Splitting drops the
  edges of the whole output, recombining drops the field edges. One
  undo step brings them back.
- The split is stored as GraphNode.splits and saved with the graph.
  Copy and paste carry it along.
- Field pins follow the struct asset like a typed Expand. A new field
  gets a pin, a removed field loses pin and edge, a renamed field keeps
  its edge. Deleting the asset keeps the last fields. The delete dialog
  counts splits, so it now says "node(s)" instead of "Pack/Expand
  node(s)".
- Renaming a variable carries its split and the field edges along.
- At run time the node still produces the whole value. A field pin
  reads its field like Expand, a missing field reads as empty.
- Limits: outputs only, one level, behavior graphs only.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 185 files, 2706 tests, CHECK EXIT 0
- e2e GM_STEPS=1-6,54,55: ALL PASSED, 303 checks
- New port-splits.test.ts with 12 tests. e2e 6z-vi with 3 checks
  using a real mouse: split Find.item, wire item.Name into the test
  and Match.item.Amount into the log (logs 7), recombine.
- Counter-checks: without field reads in the interpreter, without
  rename in the split, without moving edges on rename and without
  cleanup on field removal one unit test fails each. In the browser,
  without field reads nothing is logged and without type inference
  the split entry is missing.
- Check total in README: 1520.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 2aaca01929 Find the first matching item with a Find … Match block (#255)
Searching a list with For each needs the test result wired back into
break on the left of the loop node. The wires then run across the node
and the graph reads badly. Find … Match keeps the whole search flowing
left to right, while the test in between stays a free graph.

- Find takes exec and list and offers item and index. It sets them to
  each element in turn and has no exec output of its own.
- Match reads its bool input match once per element. The first true
  value continues at found with item and index of the hit. No hit or an
  empty list continues at not found with an empty item and index -1.
- The pair is derived from the wiring and stored nowhere. A Match
  belongs to the Find whose item or index its test is built from. Copy,
  paste and undo therefore need no extra code (findBlock.ts).
- An unpaired Find or Match, two Matches on one Find and a Match fed
  by two Finds show a warning on the node. At run time the flow ends at
  an unpaired Find and the console says so.
- Adding Find from the palette places its Match 480 px to the right in
  the same undo step.
- The graph draws a quiet frame behind Find, Match and the nodes of the
  test. Literals feeding the test from outside stay outside the frame.
- The test consists of data nodes only, like the break of For each.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 184 files, 2694 tests, CHECK EXIT 0
- e2e GM_STEPS=1-6: ALL PASSED, 272 checks
- New find-match.test.ts with 12 tests, 2 catalog cases, e2e 6z-v
  with 3 checks using a real mouse.
- Counter-checks: ignoring the test fails 4 unit tests, no ambiguity
  check fails 2, framing everything fails 1. In the browser, no frame
  and no Match from the palette each fail their check.
- Check total in README: 1517.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 e1d3c0cadb Keep items a running game puts into a typed list
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m28s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 10m48s
A typed global list lost the items the game had added to it. The item
showed up in the inspector for a moment and then was gone again.

- Since #254 the project hands out a typed list as a fresh copy each
  time, with the `$struct` marks stripped.
- While a game runs, every change to the project runs
  `adoptDeclarations`. It took a declared value over when it differed
  from the last one it had seen, compared with `!==`.
- The fresh copy never equals the last one by identity. So the empty
  list from the project overwrote the live list on every project
  change, for example when the game writes something back to the scene.
- The comparison now uses `sameValue`. A real edit to the variable
  during a run still reaches the game.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: CHECK EXIT 0
- New unit test in scope.test.ts, red without the fix.
- e2e 55i: a graph appends to a typed global list, then another asset
  changes during the run. With the fix {"filled":2,"afterEdit":2},
  without it afterEdit is 1 and the check fails.
- GM_STEPS=1,55: ALL PASSED, 26 checks.

game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m28s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 10m38s
A list of structs used to let every item carry its own fields. Adding
an item meant typing the same fields again, and nothing kept the items
in step with the struct asset from #253. A list can now name a struct
type for its items, and the asset keeps them in shape.

- A list variable and a list field get the row Items with Mixed, every
  struct asset and Make struct type. Make struct type collects every
  field any item has, so no item loses a field.
- A typed item carries its type under the key `$struct`
  (ITEM_TYPE_KEY). listItems does not count it as a field.
- A list that holds anything but structs refuses a type, also when
  the offending item sits in an override. The console names the list
  and the count, and the list stays as it was.
- In a typed list `+ Item` adds an item with the defaults, without the
  kind menu. Field names are locked, values stay editable.
- The rows of a typed item take their kind from the struct asset
  (declaredKind in InlineList.ts). An asset field shows the asset
  picker instead of a text field, as reported in the issue.
- A struct item in a mixed list gets its own Type row. Switching a
  list back to Mixed keeps the type on each item.
- syncStructTypes brings marked items into shape and carries renames
  into them, also inside overrides and nested lists. One undo step.
- The delete dialog of a struct asset also counts typed lists.
- The game never sees the key. World and sharedState strip it with
  withoutItemTypes and bagWithoutItemTypes, so a struct stays a
  plain object at runtime.
- Add item and Set item get the setting Type. With a type they only
  accept a struct with exactly its field names (fitsType in
  SetItem.ts). Anything else is left out and logged.
- The item indent from #252 is back to its old width, the narrow one
  squeezed the value fields.

Not done: writing a variable does not check the type, and the List
node offers no type.

Found on the way: a test helper in list-of-structs.test.ts called
nodes without params. It now passes the same arguments as the
interpreter.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 183 files, 2679 tests, CHECK EXIT 0
- e2e GM_STEPS=1,21,22,32,54,55: ALL PASSED, 150 checks

- New: tests/core/typed-lists.test.ts, e2e module 55 with 13 checks
- Counter-checks bite in unit and browser, originals restored by cmp

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 61bbb96a96 Define a struct once as an asset and reuse its shape (#253)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m30s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 10m33s
A struct used to declare its fields wherever it stood. The same shape
in two variables meant typing it twice, and Pack/Expand copied it once
without staying in sync. A Struct asset now holds the shape in one
place, and every struct that picks it as its type follows it.

- New asset type "Struct" (not placeable, group Structs, own icon).
  The inspector shows its fields with name, kind and default value,
  and "Open" shows them in the variables tab.
- Struct variables and struct fields get a Type row: own fields, any
  Struct asset, or "Make struct type". With a type the fields come
  from the asset and cannot be added, renamed or removed there. The
  values stay per variable, overrides on placed objects still work.
- Pack and Expand get the setting Type. With a type their ports are
  the fields of the asset and read-only in the inspector.
- A change to the asset reaches every typed place in one undo step
  (syncStructTypes). A new field arrives with its default. A removed
  field goes along with its port, edge and typed value. A renamed
  field keeps its value in variables, overrides and on ports with
  edges, also through nested types.
- Undo for these edits records plain assignments (Recorder), because
  the reach of a change is not known in advance.
- Cycles such as Loot in Loot, also through another type, are refused
  and not offered in the picker.
- Deleting the asset names how many places use it. Afterwards each
  place keeps its fields as its own.
- Loading reshapes a stale copy in a project file to its type.
- "Make struct type" creates an asset from an existing struct and
  links the place to it.

Differs from the plan:

- A changed default value applies to new fields and newly typed
  places only. Existing values stay.
- Removing a single field shows no warning. Undo brings it back.

Typed lists are left for #254. Lists stay dynamic for now.

Found by e2e: after deleting or renaming the type the inspector did
not rebuild and kept showing the old name. Fixed, the check was red
before.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 182 files, 2661 tests, CHECK EXIT 0
- GM_STEPS=1,4,21,22,54: ALL PASSED, 176 checks
- 14 unit tests in tests/core/struct-types.test.ts
- New e2e module 54 with 14 checks, real mouse. Module 04 counts
  23 asset types.
- Counter-probes: without the rename pass 4 unit tests fail, without
  reshaping values 8, without the cycle rule 1. In the browser,
  without spreading changes and with + Field despite a type, 3
  checks fail.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 4857bb75e6 Show lists in the inspector and variables in their own tab (#252)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m24s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 10m22s
The List tab could show one list at a time and was the only place to
see its items. A list now shows its items right where it lives, and a
new Variables tab shows all variables of an asset or placed object.

- InlineList draws the items of a list under its row in the inspector,
  in struct fields and in the Variables tab. A list inside a list or a
  struct field is drawn the same way, one step indented.
- The index column is the indent. Items sit under their list without an
  own margin, and the index column is 16 px wide instead of 28 px.
- Above 20 items (INLINE_LIMIT) the rest collapses into "... N more -
  open in tab". During a run the rows show the values from the game.
- ListHead puts "N items" and "+ Item" in one row. "N items" opens the
  list in a tab. A separate Open button squeezed the counter to zero
  width in the narrow inspector column.
- VariablesEditor shows every variable of a behavior asset, a variables
  asset or a placed behavior. On an asset it edits the declarations. On
  a placed object an edit only overrides that object, with the usual
  reset and push buttons.
- Opening a list inside a tab adds a new tab and keeps the open one.
  valuesKey gives each list its own document, so a list that is already
  open is shown instead of opened twice.
- Titles read "Pickup · Variables" or "Listy · nums · [3]". The tab
  closes when its asset or object is deleted.
- Lists on node inputs stay inline only, a node owns no variables.
- The List tab, ListEditor and the __gm.list hook are gone.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 181 files, 2645 tests, CHECK EXIT 0
- GM_STEPS=1,21,22,32: ALL PASSED, 123 checks
- e2e 21 is rewritten for inline lists and the new tab, 22 and 32 are
  adapted. Sum in README: 1486 (+6 in 21, -1 in 22), counted by hand.
- Counter-probes fail as expected: sub-lists not told apart (1 unit
  test), sub-list replacing the open tab, all items drawn inline (60
  rows instead of 20), no live values (0 rows at 24 items in a run).

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 b90b62886b Put one item into a list, a struct staying whole, with Add item (#250)
A list could only grow through Join lists, and that takes its b apart:
a struct becomes one item per field and a list is joined. A list of
structs such as loot could not grow at all.

- Add item returns a new list with value as exactly one more item. A
  struct or a list goes in whole. The list that came in is left alone,
  like with Set item.
- index -1 or unset appends. Otherwise the item goes in before that
  index. An index outside the list appends, so the value is not lost.
- The rule that an item takes the kind of its slot moved out of Set item
  into fitToSlot. Both nodes use it, Set item behaves as before.
- No e2e check and no browser look. The node is covered by unit tests.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 180 files, 2634 tests, CHECK EXIT 0
- 7 catalog cases, 4 cases in list-of-structs.test.ts, and index in the
  whole-number inputs of texture-kind.test.ts
- Counter-check: taking the value apart like Join lists fails 3 tests
- This commit alone: tsc and the three touched unit files pass
  (337 tests)

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 cb8a2d029a Loop over a list and stop at the first match with For each (#249)
Finding the first item that matches took Count, Repeat, Item at and a
Branch, and the loop could not stop once it had found something. A graph
has no lambdas, so the predicate is an input that is read every round.

- For each runs body once per element, with item and index set, and
  goes on at done.
- Its break input is read anew before every round, after item is set.
  Once it is true the loop ends there and that round's body does not
  run.
- done sees the matching item and index with stopped true. Without a
  match it sees no item, index -1 and stopped false, the OrDefault.
- RepeatResult has optional items, stopWhen, stopped and exhausted.
  GraphInterpreter.loop reads them, Repeat runs as before.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 180 files, 2623 tests, CHECK EXIT 0
- e2e GM_STEPS=1-6: ALL PASSED, 269 checks
- 5 interpreter tests in graph.test.ts, 2 catalog cases
- e2e 6z-iv: the palette creates the node, and a search for
  Name == "Gold" in Axe, Gold, Bow, Gold logs "1true"
- Counter-checks: without the break check 2 unit tests fail, and with
  break not read over its edge 6z-iv fails
- This commit alone: tsc and the three touched unit files pass
  (349 tests)

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 393b8ec7f9 Build your own easing curve and use it on keys and Lerp (#247)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m44s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 10m25s
The built-in eases cover the usual shapes, but a game often wants its
own: a coin that bounces twice, a door that overshoots and settles.
A new asset type holds such a curve, and keys and the Lerp node can
pick it instead of a built-in ease.

- New asset type "curve": points like in Vector art, x is t and y is
  the value. A new curve is the straight line from (0, 0) to (1, 1).
- One pure evaluation in src/core/model/curve.ts serves the timeline
  preview, the running game and the Lerp node.
- The curve always has one value per t. The end points stay at t 0
  and 1, points cannot pass each other, and a handle that reaches past
  its neighbour is shortened along its direction. Loading a hand-edited
  file applies the same rules.
- Curve tab: click on the line to insert a point that keeps the shape,
  click on free space to put one there, drag points and handles,
  double-click or Delete removes, Alt-click toggles round and sharp.
  Every step is one undo step.
- Presets: all 30 built-in eases plus Linear, fitted with adaptive
  subdivision. Each stays within 0.4 % of the built-in ease.
- Preview: a dot runs along the curve once a second, a second dot
  shows only the value. The Preview button stops it.
- Animation keys get "Curve" under Easing with a curve picker. Lerp
  gets "Curve" under Ease, and its result may overshoot b.
- A missing or unpicked curve runs linear. The inspector says so, the
  node shows it as a problem, and deleting a used curve warns with the
  number of keys and Lerp nodes.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 180 files, 2612 tests, CHECK EXIT 0
- GM_STEPS=1-6,25,53: ALL PASSED, 309 checks
- New e2e module 53 with 13 checks, all with the real mouse. Expected
  values come from its own Bezier evaluation.
- Counter-checks bite: without Bezier evaluation 4 unit tests fail,
  without handle clamping 2. In the browser, a key that cannot find its
  curve, a click that sets no point and a handle drag that moves the
  point all turn checks red.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 320d3e27e1 Add a Lerp node that blends from a to b with an ease (#246)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m23s
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 9m24s
Every animation in a behavior had to build its interpolation from
Subtract, Multiply and Add, once per axis. The gold pickup in
"Garden of Sacrifices" needed about 30 nodes for that alone. A single
Lerp node with an ease makes those chains one node each.

- Lerp has the inputs a (default 0), b (1) and t (0) and the output
  result. It sits in the data category next to Clamp.
- The Ease setting offers Linear, In, Out and In-out, all quadratic.
  The node row shows it as "Ease: Out".
- t is held in 0..1. A timer that overshoots in the last frame still
  lands exactly on b.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 178 files, 2583 tests, CHECK EXIT 0
- 7 new cases in the node catalog test. Without the clamp on t,
  2 of them fail.
- e2e 6z-iii (2 checks): typing "lerp" in the palette adds a linear
  Lerp, and picking "Out" in the inspector reaches the node and its
  row. GM_STEPS=1-6: ALL PASSED, 267 checks.
- README check sum is 1459, computed, not counted.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 0c5ac32b59 Let structs and lists nest to any depth (#239)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m52s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 10m24s
Structs and lists were capped at two fixed levels (list of structs,
struct with a list field). Anything deeper was dropped silently on
load, in node settings and when written to a variable. The cap came
from an early design choice, not from a technical need, so it is
lifted completely instead of adding a third fixed level.

- One kind list NESTED_KINDS replaces ListItemKind and
  StructFieldKind. The flat special cases in listItems.ts are gone,
  every value goes through one recursive path.
- A struct inside a struct is declared, like a top-level struct.
  Values coming in over an edge are brought into that shape. Struct
  items in lists still take their fields from the value.
- New valuePath.ts addresses any nested spot by keys and indices.
  ListSlot.field is now ListSlot.path.
- Field commands (add, rename, remove) take the path to the struct.
  They change declaration, own value and all overrides in one undo
  step, as before on the top level.
- Inspector: "+ Field" offers Struct and List on every level. A
  nested struct is a header row with its own "+ Field", its fields
  are indented one step further.
- List tab: a list item shows "n items" and opens one level deeper.
  The title shows the path, e.g. "Listy · nums · [3]".
- Pack in Pack now writes a struct into a struct field instead of
  text. Objects are kept at any depth and stripped at every exit.
- A list edit in a struct field without an existing object override
  now starts from the shown value instead of an empty struct.
- Old projects load unchanged. Save, load and save again gives the
  same result.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 172 files, 2498 tests, CHECK EXIT 0
- e2e 21 + 22: ALL PASSED, 90 checks (new 21d-iii, 22f-ii,

  nested-list-slot.test.ts, three tests that pinned the old cap
  turned around
- 6 counter-probes, each fails 1 to 8 tests, originals restored

- Not covered: a nested struct inside a struct item in the list
  tab has no e2e click

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 483c34bb5c Let Destroy keep the children and hand them back as a list
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m15s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 9m41s
Destroying a container used to take everything below it along. Now
Destroy can remove just the object itself and pass its direct children
on, so a behavior can keep working with what was inside.

- New input keep children (bool, default off). When on, only the
  object goes. Its direct children move up to the object's parent, or
  to the top level if there is none. Grandchildren stay where they are.
- New output children (object list) with the direct children that were
  kept. It is empty when keep children is off.
- The children keep their place on screen. carriedTransform folds the
  destroyed object's position, rotation and scale into their own, the
  same as reparenting in the editor.
- Behaviors and the rigidbody of the object are always destroyed with
  it and are not in the list. Moved up they would steer or simulate
  the parent.
- World remembers which children it reparented, and syncToModel writes
  their new parent into the scene. A reload of the model keeps it.
- Limit, read from the code only: in the editor run the contents of a
  placed container are not baked. Moved children there last for the
  run only.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 170 files, 2478 tests, CHECK EXIT 0
- e2e 34 (the module with a Destroy node): ALL PASSED, 21 checks
- world-sync: world matrix of child and grandchild unchanged under a
  rotated and scaled parent, parent survives syncFromModel, top level
  case, already destroyed object gives []
- destroy-keep-children: real graph Destroy(Owner) -> Log(children)

- 3 counter-probes, all caught: no world transform (1 test fails), no

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.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 98211a8d54 Let a variable hold an object across behavior runs
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m15s
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 9m2s
A spawned object was only reachable in the run that spawned it. The
Spawn output could not go into a variable because "object" was a
port-only kind, so the next run had no way back to the instance.

- "Object" is now a variable kind. The reference lives for the run
  only. The file stores the declaration and an empty value.
- The live reference sits in slots beside the variable bag
  (graph/objectSlots.ts), not in it. The bag is the behavior's props,
  and syncToModel would have written an object into the scene.
- A destroyed object, or one from a restarted or left scene, reads as
  nothing. A dead reference is dropped from its slot.
- Keep (#229) hands the slots of kept variables on to the next call
  of a sub-behavior.
- Properties of kind Behavior reads and writes another behavior's
  object variable through the same slots.
- The inspector shows "(null)" for it and offers no input.
- A persistent Variables asset with an object variable shows a
  warning under "Persistent". Saved values never keep the object,
  every run starts it at (null).

Objects inside lists and struct fields are left out on purpose.
Emptiness is checked with Equals against an empty b. A node "Is
valid" does not exist yet.

The test helper graphEditor().variables() now also reads the kinds
of a Variables asset a node points to.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 923baf2557 Let Spawn take an asset over an edge and find a child by name (#237)
An asset could only be picked as a setting on the Spawn node. It could
not be wired in, held in a variable or put into a list. Finding an
object below the own one needed a scene-wide search by name.

- "Asset" is now a kind like Animation or Sound: port, variable, list
  item and a new "Asset" literal node, with its own cube icon.
- Spawn and Is asset have an `asset` input. It uses the key of the old
  setting, so a saved asset reads as the value of the input and older
  projects keep spawning without a migration.
- New node "Child by name" searches below an object level by level.
  A child wins over a grandchild of the same name. Nothing found or no
  object gives null.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 168 files, 2453 tests, CHECK EXIT 0.
- 9 new unit tests in tests/core/asset-kind.test.ts, catalog cases for
  Spawn, Is asset, Child by name and the literal.
- e2e 6z-ii (2 checks): node rows and a real drag of the literal onto
  `asset`. e2e 6: 119 checks passed. Spawn checks in 3 and 9 passed.
- Counter-checks: depth-first search fails 1, Spawn reading only the
  old setting fails 3, runtime ignoring the parent fails 1.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 1d18862ed6 Give unconnected node inputs the default the node shows (#234)
A new node handed null to every unconnected input that had no port
default, even a Bool. The inspector showed false, 0, "" or an empty
list at the same time, so what the node read was not what the editor
said. 97 of 135 inputs of the built-in nodes were affected.

- inlineValue() falls back to the default the inspector shows. One
  place covers every node, also future ones and saved projects.
- A default list is handed out as a fresh copy per read, so a node
  that edits its input in place cannot change the shared default.
- The node shows the value it reads: an empty text or list as
  (empty), an object or struct input without a link as (null).
  Live values while playing use the same words.
- A key input without a key keeps showing a dash, like the key field
  in the inspector.
- Visible changes in old projects: To text without input gives ""
  instead of "0", Select and First not empty give "" instead of null.

Tests:
- 8 new unit tests in tests/core/inline-defaults.test.ts, among them
  one over all built-in nodes that no typed-in input reads null.
- The e2e check in module 6 reads the rows of an unlinked Name of
  node. The check sum stays the same.
- ./check.sh: 167 files, 2434 tests, exit 0. e2e 6: 117 checks.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 21d7149756 Let a nested behavior without a start node run from On start (#230)
A behavior built as a plain behavior, with On start and no Behavior
start, did nothing when another behavior called it through Run
behavior. The node only showed a warning. Such a behavior should run
as a call too, without the author having to rebuild its entry.

- New callEntries() in nested.ts returns the Behavior start node or,
  when there is none, every On start node. callProblem uses it too.
- GraphInterpreter.call() follows all entries one after the other,
  in graph order, in the same frame and with the same variables.
- Behavior end still returns what reaches it. A call through On start
  has no inputs, because only the start node declares them.
- It is a fallback only. With a Behavior start present, On start
  nodes stay out of the call.
- The node warning now reads "No start or On start node - does
  nothing" and only shows when neither exists.
- Keep and local state machines behave as before.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 163 files, 2396 tests, CHECK EXIT 0 (before 2392).
- 4 new unit tests in tests/core/nested-behavior.test.ts: the flow
  after On start runs, the return value arrives, several On start
  nodes run in graph order, a start node keeps On start out.
- e2e 19: ALL PASSED, 35 checks. Only the expected warning text
  changed, the check sum stays at 1385.
- Counter-checks: without the fallback 3 tests fail. With only the
  first On start exactly the order test fails.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 454d202109 Let each variable of a behavior choose whether calls keep it (#229)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m13s
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 8m46s
The first version of #229 put a Keep state switch on the Run behavior
node. The user wanted it where the variable is declared instead. Whether
a value lives on belongs to the variable, not to every call site.

- The node switch keepState is gone again. RunBehavior, CallResult and
  nested.ts are back to what they were before #229.
- BehaviorAsset.keptVariables lists the kept names. It lives on the
  asset and not in PropertyDef, because that is the schema of every
  inspector row.
- A variable added from now on starts with Keep on. Variables in
  existing projects start with Keep off, so old projects run unchanged.
- SetVariableKeptCommand flips the switch as one undo step. Add, remove
  and rename carry the list along. Loading drops names that are not
  declared.
- The interpreter keeps only the listed variables, per Run behavior
  node and per object as before. The others start at their defaults.
- Local state machines in a called behavior start empty on every call
  again, as before #229. Global and scene machines are unchanged.
- The inspector shows a Keep button in each variable row of a behavior.
  Its state is part of the asset signature, so a click redraws the row.
  Without that the button kept its old look until the inspector was
  reopened.

Found: the project Garden of Sacrifices still has keepState = true on
the call Player -> Character Movement. It is ignored now. Direction
there predates the switch, so Keep is off until set by hand.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 163 files, 2392 tests, CHECK EXIT 0 (before 2388)
- tests/core/keep-state.test.ts rewritten, 15 tests
- e2e 19: ALL PASSED, 35 checks. 19c-ii now clicks the Keep button
  of a new variable: on when added, off by a click, on again, off
  after undo.
- Counter-checks, each fails its own test: keep list ignored (2),
  states kept (1), new variable not kept (8), rename drops the list
  (1), no Keep button (e2e 19c-ii).

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 7c70245c79 Let a nested behavior keep its variables between calls (#229)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m3s
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 8m39s
A Run behavior call started with fresh variables every time, so a
nested behavior could not count, remember or keep a local state
machine across calls. A new "Keep state" switch on the node lets the
callee resume where its last call left off. It is off by default, so
existing projects run unchanged.

- RunBehavior gets the boolean parameter keepState and its node
  description explains it.
- GraphInterpreter keeps the state in keptCalls, keyed by the call
  path, the chain of Run behavior nodes. Two nodes calling the same
  behavior each keep their own state.
- One interpreter exists per behavior instance, so every object gets
  its own state without further code.
- Local state machines of the callee are kept like its variables.
- resumedVariables() matches kept values against today's
  declarations. A new variable starts at its default, a removed one
  drops out, and one whose kind changed starts over.
- The kept state lives as long as the object in the run. It is not
  written to save games.

Limit: a callee input named keepState collides with the switch. The
same already holds for the name behavior, so it is not caught.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 163 files, 2388 tests, CHECK EXIT 0 (before 2377)
- 10 new unit tests in tests/core/keep-state.test.ts and 1 new
  node catalog case.
- e2e 19: ALL PASSED, 35 checks, with the new check 19c-ii for the
  checkbox, its click and undo.
- Counter probes: ignoring keepState fails 5 tests, state per
  behavior instead of per node fails 1, dropping the outer path
  fails 1, skipping the kind check fails 1, and without the node
  parameter the e2e check fails.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 5dbac3a8df Add a Select node that picks one of two values by a condition
Choosing between two values meant a Branch with the whole action
twice behind it, for example two Play animation nodes that differ
only in the animation. Every later change had to be made in both.
Select picks the value, so the action stays single.

- Select is a data node with the inputs condition, false and true
  and the output value. It passes on "true" if the condition holds,
  else "false". An unconnected condition counts as false, and an
  empty picked input gives null.
- The ports are named false and true, not a and b, so nobody has to
  guess which input is which. The order false, true follows Unreal's
  Select and Blender's Switch.
- false, true and value share one type through `sharedType`, like
  First not empty. With two Animation literals plugged in, value
  takes their type and fits Play animation directly.
- Both inputs are always evaluated. Data nodes have no side effects,
  so that does not matter.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 160 files, 2363 tests, CHECK EXIT 0 (before 2356).
- 5 cases in tests/core/node-catalog.test.ts and 2 in
  tests/core/shared-port-type.test.ts.
- Counter checks: with the inputs swapped all 5 catalog cases fail,
  without sharedType exactly the type test fails.
- No e2e change, the sum stays at 1380.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 5bf1ee7a4e Let Equals match a number against a typed number like 130 (#224)
The float tolerance from the last commit never reached the case it was
built for. The inputs of Equals are of type any, and their inline field
is a text field. A typed 130 therefore arrives as the string "130", and
the tolerance only applied when both sides were real numbers. The node
fell back to comparing "129.99999999999997" with "130" as text.

- A number against a text that parses as a number now uses the same
  1e-9 rule as two numbers.
- An empty text does not count as 0.
- Two texts are still compared as text, so "1.0" and "1" stay
  different.
- Compare was not affected, its inputs are real number fields.

Tests:
- 3 new cases in node-catalog.test.ts: 129.99999999999997 vs "130"
  is equal, 0 vs "" is not, "1.0" vs "1" is not.
- Counter-check: with the old rule (two real numbers only) exactly the
  "130" case fails. Original restored and compared with cmp.
- ./check.sh: 156 files, 2314 tests, CHECK EXIT 0 (before 2311).

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 9d6a0aebd3 Let Compare and Equals treat float noise as equal numbers
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m4s
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 9m47s
A graph that checks "time - late == 6" after On timer (#224) failed,
because the difference comes out as 5.999999999999972. Both values are
sums of measured frame times, and they round along different paths.
The only workaround was a Round node in front of every comparison.

- New helper nearlyEqual in values.ts. Two numbers count as equal when
  |a - b| <= 1e-9 * max(1, |a|, |b|). The tolerance grows with the
  size of the values, so it holds for hours of summed dt.
- Compare uses the rule for all six operators. "<" and ">" only hold
  when the values are not nearly equal, "<=" and ">=" also hold when
  they are. So "==" and ">" are never true at the same time.
- Equals uses the same rule when both inputs are real numbers. Objects
  still compare by identity, everything else as text. The node
  description says so.
- The tolerance is fixed, there is no parameter on the node. Physics
  values come from float32 in Rapier and are not covered on purpose.
- The log display is unchanged and still prints the raw number.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 156 files, 2311 tests, CHECK EXIT 0 (before 2300).
- 11 new cases in node-catalog.test.ts, including the value from the
  log against 6, growth with magnitude, 6.001 != 6 and 1e-6 > 0.
- Counter-check exact compare: exactly the 8 noise cases fail.
- Counter-check "<"/">" without the exclusion: exactly 2 cases fail.
- No e2e change, the check sum stays at 1374.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 6fecb2e841 Tell On timer how late its frame is, so time minus late is exact (#224)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 2m55s
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 9m22s
A timer can only fire on a frame. It fires on the first frame past each
due time, so Time.time at that moment is the due time plus up to one
frame. On a display that is not exactly 60 Hz this delay creeps up by
a millisecond every few seconds and falls back to zero once it reaches
a whole frame. The issue saw 82.009 after 82 ticks. The timer itself
does not drift, it keeps the remainder when it fires.

- On timer gets a number output late. It is what is left of the
  timer's clock after taking one interval, so time - late is exactly
  the due time.
- When one long frame catches up several ticks, each gets its own
  late. The first one was due longest ago and is the latest.

Tests:
- New unit test in behavior-events: late 0.125 after a frame past
  1.0 s, 0 on the dot, 1.5 and 0.5 for two ticks caught up in one
  frame.
- Counter-check: late taken before the interval is subtracted fails
  exactly that test. Original restored with cmp.
- ./check.sh: 156 files, 2300 tests, CHECK EXIT 0 (was 2299).
- No e2e change. The e2e modules only wire the exec of On timer.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 d444b27fae Let behaviors read and set tilemap cells while the game runs (#135)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 2m59s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 9m22s
A behavior could move sprites around but had no way to look at or
change the tilemap it was standing on. Doors, breakable blocks and
"is there ground ahead?" checks all need that.

- New nodes Tile at, Set tile, World to cell and Cell to world. The
  conversion honours position, rotation, scale and mirroring of the
  placed map. A small Tile literal node lets a graph compare what it
  read against a fixed tile.
- The layer is picked by name from all tilemap layers in the project
  through a new field kind. "First layer" takes the map's first one.
  Because layer is an input, a text can also be wired in.
- Each placement keeps only its edited cells in liveTilemap.ts,
  layered over the asset's cells. A second placement of the same map
  stays untouched, and the asset itself is never written.
- A read sees a Set tile from earlier in the same flow. Drawing picks
  up the edit at once and neighbouring autotile edges adapt.
- Solids see the edits straight away, so a Move in the same frame
  already hits the new cell. Rapier rebuilds its shapes on the next
  step.
- After Stop the map is back to what was painted. The editor run shows
  the edit in the scene view while it lasts and does not touch the
  project.
- An unwired tilemap input means no map, like Get position. Cells
  outside the grid are refused and done reports false.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 155 files, 2271 tests, CHECK EXIT 0 (before 2245).
- tests/core/tile-access.test.ts (14), one physics test for a floor
  set at runtime, catalog entries for the five nodes.
- e2e 39,40: all passed, 86 checks (before 81), five new in 40s.
- Counter-checks: collision ignoring edits fails 3 unit tests, the
  solids cache missing same-tick edits fails only the "at once" test,
  drawing ignoring edits fails the 2 drawing checks, the editor run
  not reporting a new tile fails only its check.
- 40s uses a still tile. The animated fixture tile redraws every frame
  and hid the last counter-check at first.
- Check total 1351 + 5 = 1356, computed. CI confirmed 1351 at cb32b4b.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 056a622524 Refactoring round 6: shared sheet canvas, fewer copies (#85)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 2m57s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 8m55s
Recurring cleanup round. Behaviour is unchanged. Duplicated code in
src went from 27 clones with 299 lines to 6 clones with 56 lines
(jscpd, the two identical OFL licence texts not counted).

- SheetCanvas is the new base of the texture, pixel art and vector art
  canvases. It holds background, mask, hint, panning, wheel zoom, fit,
  view save and restore and the screen mapping. Pixel art keeps its
  whole-pixel panning and fixed zoom steps.
- mixColor in src/core/util/color.ts replaces three copies in
  animation, gradient and particles. It clamps t like the particle one.
- fingerprint now lives once in generated.ts, next to the revision
  contract from #185.
- MoveCommand next to RenameCommand is the base of the three reorder
  commands for tile pictures, tilemap layers and vector shapes.
- The two raycast nodes share inputs, settings and filter via rayOf.
- canvasRect() lives once in AssetTabEditor.
- Removed unused code: findPixelArt, isDrawableShape,
  GeneratedPictures.has and SnapToggle.snapping. Tests now check the
  same things through equivalent paths.
- 38 values used only in their own file lost their export.
- Three comments that told history now describe the current state.
  The bundle stayed md5-identical for those edits.
- README lists vector art, pixel art and palette, and links the two
  wiki pages.

Findings:
- PaintTilesCommand.changes is meant to prevent empty undo steps but
  has not been called since #128. The rectangle tool therefore records
  a no-op undo step when it paints the same tile over itself. Left as
  is, because fixing it changes behaviour.
- No test covered middle-click panning in any sheet tab before. 13f
  and 48a now check it.
- The default values of the ray inputs were untested. Length 1000
  could become 10 without a red test. tests/core/raycast.test.ts now
  covers it.
- CI measured 1308 editor checks at d7c0b7c, not the 1307 counted for
  #164. The sum is now 1310 (1308 + 2), computed.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 144 files, 2143 tests, exit 0 (before 2142).
- e2e 1-16,37,39-43,47,48 fresh: ALL PASSED, 729 checks.
- e2e 1-13,47,48 with the new checks: ALL PASSED, 518 checks.
- Counter-checks, each restored via cp and cmp: halved panning fails
  both new pan checks; unclamped mix fails 1 test, no blue channel 3;
  coarser hash 3; broken reorder undo 2; triggers setting forced on 2;
  bent ray length 1.

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 d7c0b7cfdb Variables and state machines can reset with every scene (#164)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 2m43s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 8m40s
A shared variable or machine used to live either per object or for the
whole run. Levels need a third lifetime: shared like global, but built
fresh from the declarations whenever a scene is loaded.

- New scope `scene` for Variables assets and state machines. A missing
  field keeps the old meaning: `global` for assets, `local` for
  machines, so existing projects do not change.
- Returning to a scene that was visited before is fresh as well. There
  is no memory per scene.
- A `scene` machine announces its start state again after a scene swap,
  so `On state entered` in the new scene hears it. A global machine
  stays quiet because it never left its state.
- The rule lives in two pure functions in `sharedState.ts`
  (`carriedForward`, `restartedAssets`). BehaviorSystem only calls them.
- The inspector shows a Scope dropdown on Variables assets and a third
  step on the machine dropdown, with a note on what `scene` means.

Decisions:
- `scene` and `persistent` exclude each other (variant A). The choice
  dialog was cancelled, so this is an assumption to revisit. A
  scene-scoped asset hides the Persistent switch, and switching to
  `scene` drops the flag (undo restores it). The guard sits in
  `isPersistent` itself, so no path can save values the scope throws
  away anyway.

Findings:
- `clickText('Scene')` hits the Scene tab, not the menu entry. One e2e
  check was red because of that, and its partner was falsely green
  because it compared `undefined` with `undefined`. Both use `clickLast`
  now.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 144 files, 2142 tests, CHECK EXIT 0 (before 143 / 2133)
- 9 new unit tests in tests/core/scene-scope.test.ts
- e2e 32 fresh: ALL PASSED, 17 checks
- e2e 1-3,17,18,26,32,35 fresh: ALL PASSED, 213 checks
- 3 new e2e checks (35: scene-scoped asset resets on swap, 32h: dropdown,
  note, hidden Persistent switch)
- Counter-checks bite: ignoring `restarted` fails 2 unit tests and the
  new check in 35, the old announcement rule fails 1, dropping the scope
  guard in `isPersistent` fails 1. Originals restored, cmp IDENTICAL.
- Check sum 1307 (1304 + 3) is computed. Last CI measurement: 1293.

adminandClaude Opus 5 d7a2521ca7 A port can take its type from what is plugged into it (#207)
game-maker / gate (push) Canceled after 1m8s
game-maker / suite (push) Canceled after 1m8s
Until now every port of "First not empty" was grey and typeless, so the
editor could not tell you what actually travels through the node. The
output is now typed as soon as both inputs agree, and every any-input is
painted in the colour of its own edge. Nothing changes at runtime.

- A NodeDef can declare which of its ports carry the same value
  (`sharedType: { inputs, outputs }`). The rule itself lives as a pure
  function `agreedType` in `src/core/graph/portTypes.ts`.
- Only the output inherits. It becomes the shared type when every input
  of the group is connected and they all carry the same type, otherwise
  it stays `any`.
- The inputs stay `any` on purpose. `canConnect` checks against the port
  type and a busy input is replaced by the new edge, so a typed `a`
  could never be re-plugged with a text without disconnecting first.
- Chains do not propagate. When looking up what feeds an input, a node
  of the same kind reports the `any` it is registered with, so two of
  them in a row stay untyped and a data cycle cannot ask itself in a
  circle.
- An edge that the new type makes invalid stays where it is and turns
  red. `EdgeLayer` already paints a mismatching edge with `danger`,
  nothing is disconnected on its own.
- New `PortDef.paintType`: colour only, never truth. It is set in
  `drawnDef` and read in `NodeView.redraw`, so `canConnect`, the
  interpreter and the compiler keep seeing `any`. Every connected
  any-input is painted, not just members of a `sharedType` group; ghost
  ports keep their hollow red look.
- The pin now matches the edge that ends in it, because both take the
  colour from the resolved output type of the neighbour. Mixed sources
  therefore show two colours, which explains why the output stays grey.
- New hooks `__gm.graph.portTypes(id)`, `__gm.graph.edgeColor(id)` and
  `__gm.themeColor(name)`. `portTypes` reports type and paint colour
  separately so the type checks do not silently become colour checks.

Findings:

- `resolveDef` only appends derived ports to the registered ones, so a
  fixed port cannot be retyped that way -- it would appear twice. The
  shared type is therefore resolved before the ports are built.
- Answer 5 of the issue (inline field follows the type) has no case left
  under variant A: an unconnected input stays `any` and keeps its text
  field.
- `Item at`, `Join` and `Equals` do not profit: `Item at` has no
  any-input, the other two have fixed outputs. The next candidates are
  the shader arithmetic nodes, which were left alone.

Tests:

- ./check.sh -> 143 files, 2127 tests, exit 0 (was 142 / 2113)
- GM_STEPS=1-6 fresh -> ALL PASSED, 245 checks (was 242), 9 of them new
- 14 new unit tests in tests/core/shared-port-type.test.ts
- 9 new e2e checks in block 6z, one of them a pixel check straight on
  the pin via pixelAt + themeColor
- Counter-probes all bite: filtering unconnected inputs out of
  `agreedType` fails 3 unit tests, ignoring `inherit` fails 1, killing
  the derivation in the bundle fails exactly the 2 expected e2e checks,
  and never setting `paintType` fails 4 unit tests plus the 3 pin
  checks (#bdbdbd instead of #e6a8ff / #6fcf97)
- Screenshot read: `a` pink, `b` green, output `value` grey, edges in
  the same colours
- Check total 1302 (1299 + 3), 1293 was measured by CI at 1a3babf

adminandClaude Opus 5 1a3babf9c5 First not empty gets a setting for what counts as empty (#206)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 2m46s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 8m46s
The node treated 0, false and an empty text alike, which is right for a
missing behavior parameter but wrong the moment a real 0 travels through
the graph. A setting now says how much counts as empty, so the same node
works for both cases.

- The new parameter "Empty means" has three steps: "Any empty value"
  (the default, the behaviour so far), "Nothing there (0 and false
  count)" and "Only a missing value".
- The default keeps every existing graph as it is, including the common
  setup where an unset animation parameter arrives as an empty text.
- The rule lives in isEmptyValue(value, mode) in values.ts; the node only
  passes the step through. An unknown setting behaves like the default,
  the same way Compare does.
- The node description is shorter because the old one was cut off in the
  inspector.

Findings:

- In the "Nothing there" step a struct is empty only when its fields are
  empty under the same step, so a position (0, 0) stays a real value.

Tests:

- ./check.sh: 142 files, 2113 tests, exit 0 (before 2104).
- 9 new cases in the node catalog table: the edge cases per step (0,
  false, empty text, empty list, position (0, 0), unconnected a) plus an
  unknown setting.
- Two counterproofs hold: letting "Nothing there" act like "Any" drops
  the 3 cases with 0, false and the position; removing the "Only a
  missing value" step drops the 2 cases with the empty text and list.
- Seen in the browser: the node shows "Empty means: Any empty value" and
  the inspector dropdown lists all three steps.

adminandClaude Opus 5 d98c2898b1 A new node takes the first of two values that is not empty (#205)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 2m46s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 8m38s
A graph that reads an optional value needed a chain of Equals and
Branch just to fall back on a default. The new node does that in one
step: it passes a through unless a is empty, in which case b comes
out. Both ports are any, so it works for numbers, text, lists,
structs and objects alike.

- `First not empty` sits in the data category with two any inputs
  `a` and `b` and one any output `value`. Are both empty, b comes
  out, so the second input doubles as the default.
- `isEmptyValue` in values.ts holds the rule as a pure function:
  nothing connected, 0, an empty text, false, an empty list, and a
  struct whose fields are all empty.
- The struct case is what covers a position: behavior graphs have no
  vector type of their own, so (0, 0) arrives as a struct. `{x: 0,
  y: 2}` therefore counts as set, `{x: 0, y: 0}` as empty.

Findings:

- A real 0 or false on a is passed over. That follows from counting
  0 as empty and is written down in the issue.
- The output stays any. Ports that inherit their type from an input
  do not exist in the graph; `Item at` has the same shape.

Tests:

- ./check.sh: 142 files, 2104 tests, exit 0 (was 2094).
- 10 new catalog cases: a set, a unconnected, 0, "", false, an empty
  list, a position (0, 0), a struct with one field set, an object,
  and both empty.
- Counter-check: with structs never empty and 0 a real value exactly
  those two cases fail, the rest stays green. Originals restored and
  compared with cmp, then rebuilt.
- No e2e check: single data nodes have no e2e coverage here, the
  palette fills itself from BUILT_IN_NODES.

adminandClaude Opus 5 41772e53f7 Variables assets can keep their values from one run to the next (#166)
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 8m21s
game-maker / gate (push) Failing after 3h5m52s
A game needs a high score or an unlocked level to survive the end of
a run. As agreed in the issue there are no save or load nodes. A
Variables asset gets a switch instead, and the existing Variables
nodes read and write the values as before.

- A "Persistent" checkbox in the Variables inspector. Toggling it is
  one undo step, and absent means not persistent.
- The behavior system loads the saved values at start and writes them
  after every frame that changed one, so a closed tab loses nothing.
- Values live in localStorage per project, not in the project file.
  Another browser or person starts fresh.
- Play and "Run in editor" save apart, so trying a behavior in the
  editor leaves the Play save alone.
- Saved values are read through the current declaration. A removed
  variable drops out, a new one starts from its default, and a changed
  kind is converted.
- "Clear saved values" in the inspector clears this asset in both
  areas. The main menu gets "Clear saved data" for the whole project.
  Clearing takes effect from the next run on.

Decisions:
- The switch covers the whole asset, not single variables. Mixing
  both means two assets.
- A changed default in the inspector shows only after the save is
  cleared. That is what persistent means.

Findings:
- The first e2e run died at "debug hook present" right after a Vulkan
  error from Chrome. The second run passed, so it was a GPU flake at
  start-up.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 140 files, 2070 tests, exit 0 (before 138 / 2055).
- 15 new unit tests in tests/core/saved-values.test.ts and
  tests/editor/saves.test.ts.
- GM_STEPS=32,46 fresh: ALL PASSED, 24 checks. Six new checks in
  module 32 go through the UI. Module 46 knows the new menu entry.
- Counter-checks both fail as expected. Loading switched off: 2 unit
  tests and 2 e2e checks fail. Editor run writing into the Play area:
  1 e2e check fails.
- Check total 1278 (1272 measured by CI at bbbf341, plus 6).

adminandClaude Opus 5 3427f84a55 A game can pause itself and set its own time scale (#167)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 2m11s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 7m48s
Until now only the editor toolbar could pause a running game. A pause
menu inside the game had no way to stop the world while its own graph
kept running, and there was no slow motion.

- Five new nodes: Pause game, Resume game, Is game paused, Set time
  scale and Time scale. Pause and resume take effect on the next frame.
- A game pause stops world time, physics, animations, particles and
  shader time. Only behaviors with the new "Run while paused" switch
  keep running.
- Set time scale 0 freezes the world but graphs keep running, as
  agreed in the issue.
- Play and Stop reset the time scale to 1, Load scene keeps it. The
  pause belongs to the scene, so Load scene and Restart unpause.
- The toolbar pause stays separate and also freezes the menu. When the
  game pauses itself the status line reads "The game paused itself".
- While paused, collision events are not reported, sounds keep
  playing, and the editor run ignores both nodes with a log line.

Findings:
- The first status line was longer than any before and got cut with
  an ellipsis. It is shorter now.
- The e2e harness did not know the key "p". It does now.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 133 files, 1968 tests, exit 0 (before 132 / 1952)
- npm run build: exit 0
- GM_STEPS=18 fresh: ALL PASSED, 33 checks (before 26)
- 16 new unit tests: 8 catalog cases, game-pause.test.ts, editor run
- 7 new e2e checks in block 18i, driven by real keys in the game
- Six counter-checks all bite: behavior filter, collision lock, world
  time, editor run, clock reset and the game clock in the browser
- Check total 1217 in README is computed (1210 + 7), CI measures it

adminandClaude Opus 5 ffdf0a8ddb The new node "Raycast all" answers with every collider along the ray instead of only the nearest one: it carries the same inputs and settings as Raycast (Ignore owner, Hit triggers, Layers from #158) plus "max hits" where 0 means all, and it hands back parallel lists sorted by distance - objects, colliders, points x/y, normals x/y, distances - next to count, so index i of every list speaks about the same hit; a collider counts once no matter how many convex parts its shape is built from, while a tilemap counts per cell it is hit in, and the filter sits in Solids.raycastAll like the one of #158, the one path the editor run and Play both take, so all 12 new unit tests run through describe.each against both systems; the node needed the value system to learn something it could not do - a graph list carried numbers, text, booleans and bundles but no object handles, asList turned an object into its name, so objects/colliders would have been lists of names, which loses the object when two carry the same name, and collider children usually do; Value now knows a travelling list that may hold handles and "Item at" gives such an item out as an object, ready for Destroy, Apply force or Name of, while the single door into a stored file - writeTyped/asTypeOf - runs the list through the new storedList() so every object becomes its name again and nothing living reaches a project file, which is its own unit test over JSON.stringify; three list nodes follow the handles: "Index of" compares objects by identity because a name is not the object of that name, "Set item" and "Fill" write an object as an object, and "Join text" prints the names instead of the innards; this decision was mine to make because the question ran into the MCP timeout - the alternative was a list of names plus "Object by name", which is the smaller change but lossy; 4 new e2e checks in the new block 43e (shield and floor in one go reading 2 and "145, 280", the second object answering to its name, which only a real object in a list can do, "max hits" 1 stopping at the nearest, and the node showing the row) and 18 new unit tests, 12 in raycast.test.ts, 4 on the value system and 2 in the node catalog; two counter-checks hold: not counting tilemap cells one by one drops 2 unit tests, and answering with the nearest hit only drops module 43 with 2 FAILs; one finding on the way - the node read "maxHits" while every other input carries a spoken label, because int() took the key as its label, so it has a third parameter now, and the e2e check caught that, no unit test did (#157)
