adminandClaude Opus 5.5 3e05cbbed5 Let pixel art and vector art be nine-sliced and sorted (#308) 
Nine-slice and the sort line hung on the texture frame alone. Drawing
and sorting already read both off the TextureRef every picture hands
out, but the generated pictures always said "no slice, no line". So
the feature moves from the frame to the picture, without a second
copy of any rule.

- PictureCut (border, fill, sortLine) is one type. TextureFrame
  extends it, PixelArtAsset and VectorArtAsset carry it as a whole.
  The texture file format does not change, and no migration is needed.
- The rules in texture.ts take a cut and a size: cutSortLine,
  setCutSlice, rawCutSlice and the rest replace the frame* versions.
  serialize.ts reads all three through one readCut.
- cutTarget.ts resolves a target to cut and size: a texture frame, a
  pixel frame's size or the vector canvas. It lives apart from
  texture.ts because vectorart.ts reaches texture.ts itself.
- SetSliceCommand and SetSortLineCommand take that target instead of
  (assetId, frameId). They refuse an asset that draws no picture.
- generatedRef fills slice and sortLine from the drawing. The whole
  strip of a pixel art asset with several frames gets none, it is no
  picture of that size. With one frame asset and frame are the same.
- Nine-slice scale is one shared schema row, now also on pixel art and
  vector art.
- cutSection.ts holds the NINE-SLICE and SORTING rows once. The frame
  inspector and the drawing inspector both build them.
- SheetCanvas draws a drawing's lines that are set, dashed as in the
  Texture tab. They are not dragged there, the painting tools own the
  canvas (as proposed in the issue).
- drawOrder falls back to the picture's height when a ref has no
  rect, or a sort line on vector art would have been ignored.

Tests:
- Gate: 232 files, 3542 tests (+8: drawing-cut.test.ts, and vector
  art in sort-by-y.test.ts). Three counter-proofs bite: no cut on a
  drawing, a cut on the whole strip, no height fallback.
- e2e 48: 44 checks (+1, sum 1732). 48l-ii reads red and blue where
  12-pixel borders at scale 2 put them. Without borders both spots
  read green.
- Looked at: the Pixel art tab with the lines, and the sliced sprite.

# 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, 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, 1732 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).
