Expanded 45×45 district made the 18 m MaxHorizontalStep too restrictive
(floor diagonal ~63 m). Add HorizontalStepEnabled to MovementValidationOptions
(default false, matching DistrictBoundsEnabled pattern) so the check is
skipped unless explicitly opted in. Add test for disabled case (9 pass).
Update README and plan with the decision.
Planning doc for expanding the prototype client district to ~5×
current footprint with terraces, step geometry, and extra obstacles
for camera/nav stress QA.
- Input action dev_toggle_occluder_obstacle (Ctrl+Shift+K): toggle obstacle off nav source via reparent to World, rebake NavigationRegion3D, sync NavigationAgent3D; physics/process/collision hardening unchanged intent.
- Occluder dictionary keys by instance id; related client fixes and README/project input note.
- Plan and review: PARSED_GEOMETRY_BOTH / runtime geometry removal lesson for future mechanics.
Harden idle settling so flat ground, obstacle contacts, and rare bump-edge cases stop drifting instead of looping corrective nudges. Also resolves the saved review follow-up items and syncs the runtime docs to the final feet-height and idle-anchor behavior.
ground_pick.gd now checks _collider_is_occluder before the walkable
break: when the ray hits a body in the "occluder" group it advances
OCCLUDER_PICK_THROUGH past the hit point and continues, unconditionally
and regardless of OcclusionPolicy fade state. Non-occluder click
targeting is unchanged.
Three unit tests added to ground_pick_test.gd covering occluder ancestry
detection. Plan open questions and module doc updated.
Adds OcclusionPolicy resource and wires it into IsometricFollowCamera.
Each _process frame, iterative rays from the camera eye to the player
focus detect bodies tagged "occluder"; their MeshInstance3D surfaces are
overridden with a transparent StandardMaterial3D (fade_alpha=0.25, instant).
Materials restore when the body clears the ray. Null-material surfaces
(e.g. the prototype Obstacle with no material assigned) receive a plain
transparent StandardMaterial3D so they fade correctly.
- client/scripts/occlusion_policy.gd — new Resource (enabled, fade_alpha,
occluder_group, occluder_collision_mask, max_occluder_cast_depth,
occluder_count_log_threshold, is_valid)
- client/resources/isometric_occlusion_policy.tres — default instance
- client/scripts/isometric_follow_camera.gd — occlusion_policy export,
_update_occlusion pipeline, _apply_occluder_fade/_restore_occluder helpers,
static occlusion_policy_is_valid guard, _exit_tree cleanup
- client/scenes/main.tscn — Obstacle tagged "occluder", policy assigned
- client/test/occlusion_policy_test.gd — new GdUnit4 unit tests
- client/test/isometric_follow_camera_test.gd — policy guard static tests
- docs/decomposition/modules/E1_M2_IsometricCameraController.md — NEON-27
snapshot + readability demo gate note
- docs/plans/NEON-27-implementation-plan.md — null-material decision recorded
Align plan, client/server README, E1.M1 snapshot, and code review note with
the chosen design: descend bypass favors smooth stepped surfaces; multi-click
around obstacles is OK. NS-24 remains for idle jitter.
- Add docs/decomposition/tooling/internal_authoring.md and CT.M1–M3 module stubs
- Register CT modules and cross-cutting section in decomposition README
- Add internal-content-authoring execution plan
- Extend neon_sprawl_vision.plan.md with Tooling epic (CT) in Core Epic Map and modules
Wire IPositionStateStore to Npgsql when ConnectionStrings:NeonSprawl is set,
with versioned DDL under server/db/migrations and a shared PostgresPositionBootstrap
for schema plus dev-player seeding at host startup. In-memory tests override Postgres
registrations when CI sets the connection string globally.
Add GitHub Actions Postgres service for dotnet test, server README updates,
decomposition and implementation-plan docs, code review write-up, and C# brace
conventions in csharp-style rule.
Implement E1.M1 intent → authority: POST /game/players/{id}/move with v1 JSON
MoveCommandRequest (snap + sequence), extend in-memory store and
PositionStateApi. Godot client splits ground_pick and position_authority_client
with thin main.gd; snap_to_server on player.
Tests live under NeonSprawl.Server.Tests/Game/PositionState/ with AAA layout
and MethodName_ShouldExpectedOutcome_WhenScenario naming. Debug builds use
UseAppHost=false so Linux IDEs resolve .NET 10 from a user-local SDK.
Add NS-16 implementation plan, code review doc, godot-client-script-organization
rule, csharp test layout/naming rules, and refresh E1.M1 / alignment docs.
Server and client README updates include move API, prerequisites, and Rider
notes.
