Keep a video's loading out of recordings and first frames (#417) 
A Start recording right after Play composition still began with
empty frames. The composition's clock waited for its video, but the
recording went on and took every frame while the video loaded. A
clip that starts later in the video also slipped through, because
its player already had one picture while it still sought to the
clip's start.

- The view now counts every video sprite it leaves out as missing,
  not only one without any first picture.
- GameRecorder takes no frame while the game view misses a video,
  for at most VIDEO_WAIT_MS (3 s) at a time. The recorded time
  stands and the sound of that time is dropped, so it stays in sync.
- RecordingClock.start forgets a hold from before the first frame.
  Without that, the first real frames all got the time 0.
- A followed player starts at 1x until the first speed reading.
  Before, it paused and sought every frame for about 100 ms, so the
  first pictures after a wait stuck and then jumped. A step faster
  than 4x and a time running backwards do not count as a start.
- Test hooks: __gm.gameVideo(id) reads the game view's own player,
  TakeInfo.lastFrameAt shows when the last frame was taken.

Tests:
- Unit recording (clock after an early hold), video-follow (2 new,
  1 adapted): 449 green in tests/core/recording, tests/viewport and
  tests/core/composition*
- e2e 68e (a clip from 0.8 s shows that picture first and then
  plays), 68f (a recording that already runs takes no frame while
  the composition's video loads)
- 68e is red without the start at 1x, 68f without the hold
- README: 2038 editor checks

# Game Maker
[![game-maker](https://git.nockal.com/meleki/game-maker/actions/workflows/ci.yml/badge.svg?branch=main)](https://git.nockal.com/meleki/game-maker/actions?workflow=ci.yml)
A browser-based tool "one step before a game engine": create **assets** (scenes, cameras,
sprites), place them into scenes, tweak their properties in an inspector and press **Play** –
all in one program, all drawn inside a single WebGL canvas.
![](screenshot.png)
Live: <https://nockal.com/game-maker/> · Widget playground: <https://nockal.com/game-maker/?playground>
**The documentation is the wiki:** <https://git.nockal.com/meleki/game-maker/wiki> – every concept,
node, tab and shortcut, plus the architecture and the development workflow. This file is the short
way in.
## In one screen
- An **asset** is a named, typed thing (scene, camera, sprite, text, behavior, variables, struct,
collider, rigidbody, joint, container, clip area, texture, vector art, pixel art, palette,
animation, curve, tile, tilemap, state machine, shader, shader function, font, sound, sound FX,
instrument, pattern, song, bus, particles) with properties and no position.
- A **scene object** places an asset: position, sparse **overrides** of its properties, an optional
parent. Only what differs from the asset is stored; the inspector paints it gold and offers ↺ / ↑.
- A **container** is a reusable group edited once and placed many times; its content is resolved
from the template on every read. A **screen** is a container switched on and off.
- A **behavior** is logic as a node graph, placed like anything else and parented to the object it
acts on. Play has no built-in behaviour – everything that happens is a graph.
- An **account** owns projects: the editor asks for a user name and a password first, and each
account sees only its own projects. The Account menu at the far right of the toolbar changes
the password and signs out.
- **Play** runs a throwaway copy of the project; every panel stays usable and Stop brings back
exactly what was saved. **Release…** shares a link that plays the saved game on its own, without
the editor and without signing in.
## Quick start
Node 22 is required.
```bash
npm install
npm run dev # http://localhost:5175/game-maker/dist/ – API calls are proxied to production
npm run check # typecheck + lint + format:check + unit tests – the gate CI runs too
npm run build # writes dist/ and regenerates index.html; the folder is what nginx serves
```
The browser suite and the three example games need a machine with a GPU:
```bash
node tools/seed-e2e.mjs && node tools/e2e.mjs # the editor, 2038 checks (GM_STEPS=20 for one step)
# every tool signs in first – see the Accounts page
node tools/seed-jumprun.mjs && node tools/smoke-jumprun.mjs
node tools/seed-tetris.mjs && node tools/smoke-tetris.mjs
node tools/seed-actor.mjs && node tools/smoke-actor.mjs
```
Every push runs all of it on the Gitea runners – the gate as one job, build and suite as another
beside it – so locally take the gate plus the step your change touches and leave the full run to
CI. Details, the GPU requirement and the detached runner are in
[Development](https://git.nockal.com/meleki/game-maker/wiki/Development).
