- Sample floor Y from center and lower probe; use max for bump rim.
- Only bypass nav for step-sized vertical drop with wider near-goal horiz.
- Loosen next-waypoint stickiness so rim waypoints fall back to goal sooner.
Ray down for floor Y under the capsule; skip nav only when goal is a bit
lower than that surface, drop ≤0.55 m, and horiz ≤1.05 m. Matches
leaving a bump without comparing pick/body origin (which broke obstacle
pathing). Long crosses still use waypoints.
goal.y < body.y matched almost every move because ray picks use floor Y
while CharacterBody3D origin is mid-capsule, so we always bee-lined and
ignored waypoints. Rely on small-xz next-waypoint fallback for bump rims
instead.
Server already allows downward steps via abs(ΔY) vs MaxVerticalStep; document
that explicitly.
Client: when authoritative goal Y is below the body, skip nav waypoints and
steer horizontally toward the goal only — mesh waypoints under the rim
gave ~no horizontal speed (felt like wrong collision).
Replace stacked NS-19 workarounds (underfoot rays, plateau nav skip, 3D
climb/descent steering, rim escape) with one rule: set horizontal
velocity toward waypoint/goal, force velocity.y = 0, move_and_slide +
floor_* handle height along geometry. Server MoveCommand remains the
single place for allow/deny on illegal steps.
- Add xz-offset down-rays (~0.42 m) so rim/lean on the 1 m Bump A still
counts as on-bump for nav skip (single center column could miss).
- Widen Bump A convex base 0.65→0.72 (top 0.5 unchanged): gentler ~34°
sides vs ~45° to reduce CharacterBody3D snags; mesh unchanged.
- If any of three down-rays (body + two lower origins) hits ns19_bump,
skip NavigationAgent waypoints unconditionally on that footprint.
- Steering: any goal lower than origin with same xz (dy < 0) uses rim
escape; dy in (-0.04, 0) previously zeroed velocity and could hang.
Plateau-only (strict flat normal + is_on_floor) missed rim poses and
convex top edges. Skip waypoints when a down ray from body or feet
offset hits ns19_bump and either the goal is lower than the body origin
(typical floor click off bump) or we are on a flatter floor normal
(~15°). Keeps waypoint routing on bump slopes when climbing past
obstacles unless the move is clearly downward.
Restore obstacle routing via waypoints elsewhere; on bump tops nav often
prefers a downward segment and breaks departure. Detect plateau with
is_on_floor + flat normal + ray down into group ns19_bump; then steer
only toward authoritative goal xz. Slopes keep waypoint pathing.
- Add BoxShape3D to PrototypeTerminal (layer 1, walkable) so the player
cannot pass through; matches terminal mesh size.
- Bake navigation from collision layer 1 only so the player (layer 2) is
not merged into the mesh; reparent Player under NavigationRegion3D so
NavigationAgent3D resolves a valid map.
- Restore nav waypoint following for long horizontal legs; keep horizontal
steering toward next/goal so bump departure behavior stays sane.
Ground pick: step the ray through steep walkable hits (0.09 < dot UP < 0.64)
so a view that grazes bump sides still resolves to flat floor beyond; walls
(dot ~0) stop the chain.
Player: drop NavigationAgent3D waypoint following; steer only toward the
server goal in xz so plateau paths are not dominated by vertical nav
segments. move_and_slide handles slopes and obstacles.
VERT_ARRIVE_EPS (0.16) was larger than the bump rise (~0.12–0.15), so a
floor click beside the plateau often satisfied arrival (horiz + vert) on
the first frame and cleared the walk goal before any motion.
Tighten vertical arrival to 0.055. Add a steer fallback when the target
shares xz but is lower (plateau vs floor underfoot) so we still pick a
horizontal escape toward the rim.
Path waypoints from the plateau often sit on the slope almost under the
player (same xz, lower y). 3D steer + y clamp gave almost no horizontal
velocity, so standing on top then clicking off looked stuck. Steer in xz
at MOVE_SPEED and let move_and_slide follow floor/slope; keep 3D only for
vertical climb when xz is aligned.
Replace top slab + four ramp wedges with one ConvexPolygonShape3D frustum
per bump so plateau and slopes are one manifold (no collider seams at
table edges when walking off).
Add CharacterBody3D safe_margin to reduce edge contact with physics.
- Add four invisible ConvexPolygonShape3D ramp wedges per bump (walkable) so
move_and_slide can climb/descend without test_move ledge hacks.
- Remove _try_autostep / _maybe_autostep_after_slide and LEDGE_DROP_STEPS;
they mis-detected geometry and fought CharacterBody3D slide.
- Fix duplicate subresource unique_id on BumpA RampWest and BumpB RampSouth.
- Run .NET build/test only when the solution, server/, or the workflow changes.
- Add gdlint and gdformat --check for client/ on relevant path changes.
- Align client GDScript with gdtoolkit (formatting, enum order, line length).
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.
