Type point values, snap and scrub the preview in the curve tab (#248) 
Building a curve by mouse alone was fiddly: there was no way to put a
point on an exact value, no grid, and the running preview could not be
stopped at a chosen moment. The hand cursor over points also looked
like a link instead of a drawing tool.

- Number fields t and v in the header show the selected point. Typing
  or dragging on them goes through the same rules as a mouse drag, so
  points never overtake and handles stay clamped. One undo step each.
  t is greyed out on the two end points.
- The magnet button from Vector art snaps points and handles to a
  0.05 grid in t and v, when placing on free space and when dragging.
- Points and handles keep the default arrow in the curve tab and in
  Vector art. The pixel art palette dropped pointer as well, which is
  beyond the issue. Collider corners never had it.
- The preview now starts off. A vertical time line with a knob under
  the t axis sets t when dragged sideways. Dragging the dot on the
  rail jumps to the first t where the curve reaches that value, or to
  the closest one if it never does.
- The rules are pure functions in curveView.ts (withCurvePointSet,
  snappedToGrid, shareAtValue, previewSecondsAt), the canvas only
  calls them.

Tests:
- ./check.sh: 180 files, 2616 tests, CHECK EXIT 0
- GM_STEPS=1,47,53: ALL PASSED, 87 checks
- 4 new unit tests in curve-view.test.ts, 4 new e2e checks in 53
  (53h-53k) and 1 in 47, all with real mouse and keyboard
- Counter-probes bite: without "first t" 1 unit test fails, with
  pointer, no snap, no field commit, no scrub or preview on 5 browser
  checks fail, pointer in Vector art fails the new 47 check

# Game Maker
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.

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, collider, rigidbody,
container, texture, vector art, pixel art, palette, font, sound, animation, state machine, shader,
particles, variables, tile, tilemap) 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.
## 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, 1477 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 runner – 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).
