- Introduce configurable victory modes: "commander" (default, kill enemy commander) and
"annihilation" (fight until army can no longer produce)
- Add Laser Tower (1x1, hitscan) and Missile Launcher (2x2, guided with min-range dead zone)
as buildable defensive structures with new towerlaser and towermissile weapons
- Units now hold at weapon range when attacking buildings instead of closing to point-blank,
controlled by new engageHoldFraction constant (0.45)
- Replace center-to-center distance with surface distance for building targets; buildings are
treated as rectangles with true half-extents, improving combat accuracy
- Buildings (towers) now freely traverse and aim in all directions regardless of art orientation
- Commander unit flagged with isCommander; victory conditions validate presence of commanders
- Update campaign missions to use destroyCommander objective; reseed m02 (old seed unwinnable
after combat balance changes)
- Add skirmish setup UI for selecting victory conditions
- Update AI skill ladder verification thresholds to account for engage hold behavior
- Add comprehensive tests for victory conditions and defensive structures
Allow builders to repair damaged friendly units and buildings by
right-clicking them. Repair cost and duration are proportional to the
damage healed (X% HP restoration costs X% of build cost and takes X%
of build time).
Key changes:
- New 'repair' order type with validation (own units only, must be
damaged, requires a builder)
- Separate _repairPower accumulator so repairing a damaged factory
doesn't silently speed up its production queue
- Repair drains energy/mass through the same economy machinery as
construction, including brownout throttling
- HUD hints guide players to right-click damaged allies to repair
- Repair order auto-clears when complete; unqueued orders interrupt it
while queued orders wait behind it
- Visual waypoint color for repair orders
- Comprehensive test coverage in verifyTotalAnnihilation.js
- Initialize lastDamagedTick to -1e9 for fresh units (finite sentinel to avoid JSON.stringify null)
- Add lastDamagedTick to serialize/deserialize so the pause timer persists across save/load
- Add comprehensive tests for self-heal behavior:
- Rate verification (~33% max HP/min)
- 30s pause after damage and clock restart on new hits
- Sustained fire suppression
- No overhealing
- Non-selfHeal units don't regenerate
- Damage clock survives save/load round-trip
- Add self-healing system for units with `selfHeal` definition (e.g. Commander)
- Healing pauses for 30 seconds after taking damage to prevent out-healing fights
- Rates converted to per-tick at load time for efficient simulation
- Improve build queue interaction: use CTRL (or Cmd) to chain multiple builds,
release to cancel placement automatically — no need to press Esc or click again
- Track queue modifier state from DOM events for robustness across focus loss
- Queue multiple orders per unit by holding CTRL (matching original game)
- Draw colored waypoint chains on the minimap/world for each queued order
- Display queued order count in selection detail panel
- Limit queue overlay to MAX_QUEUE_LINES to avoid clutter in large selections
- Use distinct colors per order type (move, attack, patrol, build, etc.)
- Update hint text and placement UI to mention queueing behavior
- Add verification tests for queue append/replace semantics, consumption order,
and queued build orders
Add a complete Total Annihilation clone including:
- TotalAnnihilationGame.js: Main scene with fixed-step loop, input handling,
camera controls, selection, orders, and match lifecycle
- TAHud.js: Resource strip with flow rates, selection info, build/production
grid, minimap with fog of war, and toast notifications
- TAScreens.js: Main menu, skirmish setup, campaign list, pause menu, and
victory/defeat results
- totalannihilation-campaign.json: 6 hand-authored campaign missions with
escalating difficulty (skill 1→5)
- tools/genTACampaign.js: Campaign generator that bakes terrain from the
seeded map generator
- tools/verifyTotalAnnihilation.js: 13-section end-to-end test suite covering
rules integrity, artwork, economy, pathfinding, combat, fog of war,
map generation, serialization, AI skill ladder, and campaign winnability
- tools/lib/taStubScene.js: Minimal Phaser stub for headless testing
Engine improvements:
- TALogic.js: Swept projectile collision (no tunneling), quadratic AoE
falloff, manual weapon support (D-Gun), unrecoverable elimination, onTick
callback for AI stepping
- TAAI.js: Skill-based economy ladders, simultaneous factory+economy growth,
sticky focus-fire, home defense gating by skill, tune/profile overrides
- TANav.js: fitField dilation for unit clearance, stale fit mask invalidation
- TAWorldView.js: _addWorld for layer ordering, frame-accurate zoom anchor
math, container depth sorting every frame
- TARules.js: autoRangeOf excludes manual weapons, manual flag compilation
Art & data:
- Mayan civilization artwork added to civilization-artwork.json
- Several opponents switched to mayan citySheet
- totalannihilation-rules.json: balanced unit stats, new commanderlaser weapon,
restructured AI skill tuning, formatted JSON

- Reassign Victor and other opponents to steampunk city theme
- Enable wheel scrolling on city choices list
- Allow non-combat units (e.g., caravans) to enter enemy cities
- Block movement into enemy cities when at war
Handle 'buildingSold' events to inform players when their buildings are
automatically sold to cover upkeep costs, displaying the building name
and city where the sale occurred.
- Replace flat caps (CAR_CAP, HOUSE_CAP, BUILDING_CAP, WEEK_ROADS) with
per-stage values that scale over the run, preventing the week-6 growth
plateau where the expanded map stayed empty
- Add per-color starvation guards: ensure every unlocked colour has at
least 2 houses and 1 building, even if it means exceeding stage caps
- Allow spawnHouse/spawnBuilding to bypass caps when a colour is
supply-starved or destination-less
- Update bridge placement to handle 1-wide rivers (orientation-ambiguous
single-cell spans)
- Tune PIN_MS_MIN from 3500ms to 2400ms
- Extend Monte Carlo verification to 20 weeks with assertions that the
city grows past the old week-6 plateau
Replace the four-line text yield breakdown with five icon-based rows that draw
total production as icons and show surplus/loss as a signed group. Hovering any
row reveals exact figures and derived facts like growth/starvation timers.
Replace the comma-separated supported units list with wrapped unit chips that
show each unit individually, including veteran status (gold dot) and upkeep
color coding. Chips display a "+N" overflow marker when units exceed the
visible grid.
Extract citySupport() from cityYields() to compute per-unit upkeep in one pass,
ensuring the Shields/Gold rows and unit chips always agree on costs. Add
describeYieldRow() and describeSupportedUnitTooltip() tooltips for the new
visual elements. Add comprehensive headless tests covering icon run logic,
yield identities, government upkeep rules, and tooltip rendering.
- Add CivilizationCityMap.js: draws the 21-tile fat cross in the city screen
with terrain, specials, city sprite, pips, borders, units, and veiled tiles
- Replace fixed 28-row build list with a scrollable window; add shield cost
and turn-estimate annotations per build choice
- Add garrison display: fortified units shown as clickable roundels
- Refactor tileYield() to accept a `notes` array that records each rule's
delta, enabling accurate tooltips that can never drift from engine math
- Extract paintTerrainDiamond() and specialColor() from CivilizationMapView
so the city map and main map share identical rendering
- Add cityCentreYield() enforcing the 1-shield/1-trade market-economy floor
- Add cityTileStatus() for consistent worked/idle/taken/offmap classification
- Add describeCityTileTooltip() with terrain title, yield breakdown, missing
improvement explanations, and status line
- Wire improvementSheet and iconSheet paths in civilization-artwork.json
- Add comprehensive verifyCivilization checks for yield notes, centre floor,
tile status, tooltips, and build list capacity
Introduce active diplomacy where rival leaders approach the player with
requests, demands, trades, and gifts rather than passively waiting.
New CivilizationDiplomacy.js module handles:
- 9 request kinds (joinWar, breakTreaty, borderUltimatum, demandGold,
demandTech, techTrade, ceasefire, peace, alliance) with initiative
tiers so urgent calls to arms aren't drowned out by filler offers
- Cooldowns per (leader, target, kind) plus a per-leader gap so a
leader can't spam different requests to bypass rate limits
- Frustration grudge (0-100) raised by refusals, decaying each turn
and dragging attitude toward hostility through the ordinary war path
- Escalation: frustrated leaders demand compensation, then renounce
treaties at breaking point, with ordinary hostility finishing the job
- Border ultimatum promises checked when pledges expire (double penalty
for broken word)
- Unprompted gold/tech gifts from leaders with high attitude
- Staleness validation so requests the world invalidated are dropped
- AI-to-AI requests resolve immediately through the same pipeline
UI changes:
- AI requests queued on state.pendingRequests, presented via audience
popup at the start of the human turn (one per turn, configurable)
- Diplomacy screen shows ACCEPT/REFUSE with consequence hints until
answered; unanswered requests lapse with half-weight penalties
- New event types: treatyRenounced, pledgeBroken/pledgeKept, aiGift
- Leader dialogue for demands, refusals, gifts, and renouncements
- Tetris Attack menu gets a title art backdrop
Data/infra:
- diplomacyRequests tuning in civilization-rules.json (thresholds,
cooldowns, attitude weights, per-request config)
- Frustration, requestCooldown, lastRequestTurn, pledges fields on
civ state — all backward-compatible with old saves
- Full verification suite covering eligibility, resolution, cooldowns,
frustration arc, serialization, and fuzz testing
- Add japanese-themed city sprite sheet (PNG + PSD) and register in artwork config
- Switch several opponents to cyberpunk or japanese city themes
- Fix hut badge stale display by including tile coordinates in hut events and
repainting affected tiles immediately via repaintFromEvents
- Replace diagonal lattice world generation with hash-based jittered grid:
* Shield grassland now uses balanced 2x2 blocks hashed per position to remove
visible screen-space banding while preserving 50% density
* Special resources placed on jittered blocks with adjacency avoidance,
eliminating clumping and barren regions
- Update sprites.md paths and status markers to reflect completed sheets
- Expand verifyCivilization checks for shield density range and special placement
quality (no adjacency, balanced windows, no screen-column alignment)
- Update Tetris Attack dialogue with control instructions and typo fixes
- Implement per-character voice clip system (match, supermatch, win, lose) that
loads lazily per round and falls back gracefully when clips are missing
- Queue voices to play after arcade cues, with intelligent interruption handling
so only one line plays at a time
- Rename ensureRoundBackgrounds to ensureRoundAssets to handle both images and audio
- Reduce background music volume from 0.8 to 0.4
- Update character sprite sheet and document voice clip structure in sprites.md
Refactor Stage Clear narrative from battling opponents to helping friends.
Update character poses: friends cheer on clears and fret during danger.
Implement multi-line intro cutscenes with step-by-step progression and random background art.
Switch dialog to randomized arrays (introLines, winLines, loseLines).
Add new sound effects for Beth and Jerry.
Update validation and documentation to match new data structure.
Add new background images for Klaxon, Steve, and Victor characters
with 5 animation states each (r1-r5).
fix(civilization): resolve hotkey capture in city naming modal
Store hotkey list in this.hotkeyList to properly clear and restore
keyboard captures when opening/closing the city name input modal.
Previously, gameplay hotkeys prevented typing in the input field.
- Implement staggered tile pop animation: face overlay flashes on each tile,
then shatters into four quadrants that fly diagonally while shrinking/fading
- Play 8-bit card sound per tile, 8-bit action/win sounds for 4+/5+ tile clears
- Adjust character speed levels in tetrisattack.json (Jerry-1, Michael-2,
Steve-2, Victor-3, Klaxon-4)
- Replace cursor movement SFX with click sound
- Update advancewars-units and tetrisattack-panels sprite sheets and PSDs
- Add sfx-click and sfx-casino-win-8bit to preload and sound registry
Introduce temporary emotional reactions for the host portrait that hold
for a duration before reverting to a resting pose. The setPose method
now accepts an optional holdMs parameter; when provided, the pose is
applied temporarily and transitions back to the base (danger-driven)
pose once the timer elapses. This prevents the host from remaining in
a reaction pose indefinitely after events like scoring or opponent
clears.
Detect when a player shortcuts across geometry and skips checkpoint gates
by monitoring the spline projection delta. When the player jumps past
the configured skip threshold, they are teleported back to the last
legitimate checkpoint, shown a blinking "CHECKPOINT MISSED" banner,
and given a brief invulnerability window.
- Add checkpointMissSkip and checkpointMissMs config values
- Implement delta-based gate-skipping detection in kart logic
- Add HUD banner and sound feedback for missed checkpoints
- Make player sprite blink during the correction window
- Add verification tests for detection, correction, and clean-race false positives
- Make Tetris Attack portrait frame half-transparent
- Replace hard-capped difficulty curves with exponential ramp function
that continues scaling deep into endless play without plateauing
- Reduce base speeds and shot counts for more deliberate gameplay
- Increase flipper, fuseball, and pulsar speeds for more pressure
- Flipper AI now chains hops toward the claw instead of resting,
making it a true pursuer rather than a shuffler
- Change zapper to refill +1 per level instead of full reset, making
charge management meaningful
- Death no longer resets the board: only enemies within threshold t
die with the player, others remain mid-climb
- Improve enemy shot hit detection with lane distance check instead
of exact lane match
- Add advanceShots() helper for cleaner shot advancement logic
- Update verification tests for new mechanics and difficulty curves
- Add michael background sprites and update tetrisattack characters
- Update superkart icons.png and icons.psd assets
- Add renamed background-jerry-r1.png (renamed from background-jerry.png)
- Add new background frames for beth (r2-r5) and jerry (r2-r5)
Restructure Tetris Attack Stage Clear from "clear all target panels" to a
multi-stage round system with a sliding boundary line.
Gameplay changes:
- Each character now has 5 stages instead of a single match
- A CLEAR line appears after a set number of rows rise, then rides the
stack upward; the objective is to clear everything above it
- Clearing a stage advances to the next: same board, faster speed, fresh line
- Stage progress is saved to localStorage; characters unlock sequentially
- Added a stage select screen with progress squares per character
Logic changes:
- Replaced `targetsTotal` with `clearLine` tracking and `countAboveLine`
- Added `advanceStage()` to resume play on the same stack one speed level higher
- Win condition now checks `countAboveLine() === 0` instead of target count
- Removed `target` flag from panels; panels below the line are irrelevant
- Continuous speed ramp via fractional `speed` per stage
UI changes:
- Clear line drawn as a pulsing bar with "◀ CLEAR" label outside the board
- "CLEAR LINE!" announcement on appearance, "STAGE N CLEAR!" banner on win
- HUD shows stage number instead of panel count
- Game over offers "Retry Stage", "Stage Select", or "Menu"
Asset changes:
- Backgrounds renamed to `background-{hero}-r{stage}.png` (5 per character)
- Lazy-load backgrounds per round instead of preloading all 30 images
- Updated tetrisattack.json with `stagesPerRound`, `stageSpeedStep`, and
per-character `clearLineRows`
Tests:
- Rewrote stage clear soak tests for the new mechanic
- Added stage round progression, speed ramp, and board preservation tests
Advance Wars:
- Add HP override system (seed/set/clearHpOverride) so units show correct
HP during enemy-turn replay until their battle animation plays
- Redesign river/road channel rendering with layered depth: rivers get
deep channel, light core, and ripple crests; roads get concrete shoulders,
asphalt, and dashed centre lines phase-locked to tile seams
Tetris Attack:
- Add character sprite sheet and per-host background images (beth, jerry,
michael, steve, victor, klaxon)
- Declare hero background assets in manifest; scene falls back gracefully
when art is missing
- Update characterSheet path in tetrisattack-artwork.json
- Track `_prevRow` on falling panels for interpolation during animation
- Add `_justLanded` flag to introduce a settling frame after panels land
- Interpolate panel Y position from previous row for smoother fall effect
- Defer match detection and chain-end logic until after settling frame
- Update assets: new background-menu and main-title images, update existing sprites
Units doomed to die later in a pre-resolved enemy turn were being removed
from the board prematurely during sync, before their death animation could
play. Now:
- syncUnits only prunes dead views on actual army elimination, not on
mid-turn CO powers that would kill units later in the same turn
- Added 'loaded'/'joined' event handlers to remove views when units merge
into transports at the correct animated moment
- setUnitVisibility skips views whose units are already gone from state,
preserving mid-replay sprites until their event fires
Implement the full Tetris Attack clone with three game modes:
- Endless: clear panels as the stack rises, speed increases with levels
- Stage Clear: defeat 6 character opponents (Beth, Jerry, Michael, Steve, Victor, Klaxon) in sequence
- Puzzle: solve 24 pre-vetted puzzles within move limits
Core engine (src/games/tetrisattack/TetrisAttackLogic.js) is a pure, deterministic
state machine with match detection, chain propagation, gravity, and scoring tables
matching the SNES original. Includes a headless verifier (verifyTetrisAttack.js)
testing match detection, chains, gravity invariants, top-out, puzzle solvability,
and seeded determinism.
Art is fully optional via drop-in spritesheets (spec: sprites.md); procedural
fallbacks draw 16-bit-style panel icons with distinct shapes for colorblind access.
Puzzle bank generated by genTetrisAttackPuzzles.js and verified as solvable within
optimal move counts.
Shared nintendo soundtrack reused via soundtrack overrides.
Import and play day banner animation when transitioning between turns
in Advance Wars game. The banner displays the current day number and
plays before allowing the next turn to begin, providing visual feedback
for day progression. Added safety check to cancel animation if scene
changes during playback.
- Add HP text readout to battle animations showing 1-10 scale HP
(matching Advance Wars' classic HP display), with smooth tweening
- Extract cursor drawing into procedural texture, keeping it independent
of the UI sheet
- Add advancewars-ui.png sprite sheet and update artwork config
- Assign battle sounds to each unit type (gunfire, tank, cannon, missile, etc.)
and play the appropriate sound on attack/counterattack in battle animations
- Add per-unit-type movement sounds (march for infantry/mech, engine-fast,
engine-heavy) that loop during move animations and stop cleanly on completion
- Play jump sound during capture animation hops and activation sound on capture
- Play explosion sound when units are defeated in combat or crash
- Lighten unit tint relative to buildings so units remain visually distinct
when standing on captured buildings
- Add new audio assets: battle sounds, march, 8bit-jump, and update battle-tank
Replace the solid-color ground rectangle in the capture animation with a
proper terrain backdrop matching the ground the building sits on (plain,
shoal, etc.). Extract battleBgFrame, ensureBattleBgSheet, and add a new
groundBgFrame helper that maps building types to their underlying terrain,
avoiding duplicate building rendering since the building is already the
main squishing prop.
Introduce a new battle background spritesheet (advancewars-battlebg) that
displays context-appropriate backdrops behind each fighter during battle
cut-ins. The backdrop is selected based on the terrain/building type the
fighter is standing on (city, base, airport, port, plain, wood, mountain,
sea, reef, shoal, river, bridge, road, hq).
- Add battleBgSheet to artwork.json and asset manifest
- Implement playBattleAnim() backdrop system with terrain lookup
- Provide procedural fallback matching the real sheet's frame map for
art-free playability
- Mirror defender backdrops to match mirrored defender sprites
- Document the 14-frame sheet spec in sprites.md (256×256 cells, 5 cols)
Introduce a breathing pulse effect (red fill + white border) for attack
target tiles to draw the player's eye when in "must pick a target" fire
mode. The previous static tint is preserved for the indirect-range preview
shown while a unit is merely selected.
- showAttackTiles now accepts optional { pulse: true } parameter
- Added tween-based animation with Sine.easeInOut breathing effect
- Properly clean up pulse tween in destroy() and clearOverlays()
- Updated AdvanceWarsGame to pass pulse: true when showing targets
Introduce a cinematic capture animation when a unit captures a property:
a small window shows the capturing unit hopping atop the building, which
then squishes down to reflect remaining capture points (or pops back up
in the new owner's color if the capture completes).
- Add AdvanceWarsCaptureAnim.js with the full cut-in animation sequence
- Display remaining capture-points as a strength number on partially-
captured buildings, tinted toward the owner's color
- Add `before` field to capturing events so the animation knows the
starting HP
- Support partial unit sync so units are revealed action-by-action
during turn replay instead of snapping to end-of-turn positions
- Add depth bias so units always render above buildings on the same tile
- Add new unit sprite sheet (advancewars-units.png/psd)
- Slow down all battle animations for better readability:
- Attack, flash, death, and delay timings increased
- Unit movement animation duration increased (70→180ms)
- Explosion animation slowed down
- Post-turn wait time increased (140→300ms)
- Merge props and units into shared Y-sorted "actors" depth band
- Buildings and units now sort correctly by screen row
- Move/attack overlays remain below actors for proper decal rendering
Introduce a unit unlock system that progressively grants access to new
unit types as the player advances through the campaign. Each mission
specifies which units each army can build, starting with basic units
and unlocking MD Tanks, Rockets, Anti-Air, Missiles, Lander, Cruiser,
and eventually the full armory.
- Add unit sprite sheet (advancewars-units.png) and artwork config
- Implement unlock validation in production and build options
- Add tutorial dialogue from Ethel explaining new mechanics and units
- Balance AI difficulty by reducing skill levels and aggression
- Adjust capture weights for more balanced AI behavior
- Add introductory city capture mechanic in first mission
- Update verification tool to support unlockedUnits
Implement a full Advance Wars clone with campaign (20 missions) and
War Room skirmish mode. Includes:
- Headless game engine (AdvanceWarsLogic) with complete AW1 rules:
terrain movement, combat, capture, production, transports, fuel,
fog of war, CO powers, and multiple objective types
- AI opponent (skill 1-5, aggression/capture tuning) with BFS
pathfinding, threat evaluation, production counter-tables, and
fog trap awareness
- Canvas-rendered map view with procedural stand-ins that can be
replaced by drop-in painted spritesheets (no code changes)
- 11 playable COs with unique day-to-day modifiers and powers
(Hyper Repair, Lightning Strike, Tsunami, Meteor Strike, etc.)
- Campaign briefings with typewriter text and opponent portraits
- Comprehensive headless verification suite (rules, combat formula,
pathfinding, economy, capture, fog, CO powers, soak tests)
- New assets: terrain/building sheets, adventure music tracks,
game icon frame 86
- Refactor SpireClimb and SWDBG to use the shared soundtrack service
Introduce game-specific music overrides using the soundtrack service.
Adds arcadedark and hacker music packs, and wires them to Balatro,
Colorado Defense, Tempest, Mastermind, Hexsweeper, Dot Link, and 2048.
Games now lazy-load their soundtrack assets on entry instead of sharing
a single generic music cache.

- Play kart-spinner SFX when player picks up an item in Super Kart
- Increase speech queue volume to 1.0
- Add Super Kart icons artwork and additional music assets
- VictoryCamDirector: cinematic post-race camera system with shuffled
shot types (chase, orbit, front, trackside) and hard-cut transitions;
player can press ENTER to skip.
- Engine audio: per-racer engine hum (heavy/fast/medium) with pitch
tracking based on kart speed; engine-start sound at green light.
- Star power loop sound that stops when star expires.
- Positional audio: AI kart sounds (spin, hit, flatten) scale volume
with distance from player.
- Enhanced event sounds: item-use, boost, EMP, squash, bump, coin,
star now play appropriate SFX.
- Player kart autopiloted after finishing for victory-lap vignette;
race phase waits for entire field (up to 90s safety cap).
- EMP now emits target list for per-target shrink sounds; squash
collision emits event.
- Animated race results screen with staggered row reveals.
- Animated cup standings with running point counter and position
arrows; tweens rows to new ranks.
- Podium reveal: 3rd → 2nd → 1st staggered with confetti, count-up,
and CRT pulse; winner speech plays.
- Mode7 camera now tracks height and focal length; setCamera accepts
arbitrary poses for cinematic shots.
- New audio assets: engine-start/heavy/fast/medium/rev, kart-coin,
kart-flatten, kart-thump, kart-shrink, kart-spin, kart-hit,
kart-shell, kart-star.

and add a track loading panel to the editor
- Civilization: display completion notifications for spaceship parts with
direct navigation to the building city
- Profile: implement export/import via .fcg files with validation, download,
and restore flows
- UI: add multi-button modal support, improve ProfileScene layout with avatar
masking and info card, and rename Arcade category to "Video Games"
- Replace hardcoded 'warriors' default with pickNextBuild() for both
founded and captured cities
- Captured cities now adopt the new owner's tech level when selecting
their default unit (e.g., Phalanx if Bronze Working is known)
- Add verification tests for tech-dependent defaults on founding and capture
- Add Coinage (1 shield → 1 gold) and Public Works (2 shields → 1 food)
special build options for cities, with remainder carry logic in shieldBox
- Update AI to fall back to producing gold or food instead of stockpiling
redundant defenders when nothing else is available
- Fix mid-build detection to check build.type before comparing shield progress
- Add City Screen UI for special builds: display gain per turn, color-coded
rows, and tooltips
- Only apply class-switch penalty when switching between unit/building
production types
- Add verification tests for coinage payout, public works remainder carry,
and AI special build fallback
feat(superkart): fix player kart scale + add missing backdrop images
- Compute PLAYER_KART_SCALE from MODE7 parameters instead of hardcoding,
keeping player and AI karts consistent at the camera's follow distance
- Wire up previously null backdrops: volcano, scrapyard, swamp, speedway,
nightcity
- Add beach theme artwork and register paths in artwork JSON
- Implement AI rubber-banding that scales AI top speed based on gap to player
- Configure engine classes with varying rubber-band strength (Cruiser most forgiving, Turbo least)
