- Ejection: drop GFORCE.ejectThresholdG from 6 to 0.5 - the bouncier
suspension isolates the chassis from shock, so the old threshold was
effectively unreachable and kids were never actually being ejected.
Ejected kids now pop straight up through the roof (ignoring chassis
velocity/tilt) and fly under a lighter gravity (KID.ejectedGravityScale
0.35, applied via KidManager's beforeupdate handler) for a floaty,
Snuggle-Truck-style arc.
- Cut maxLeanAngularVelocity and leanTorqueStep in half for a slower,
more gradual lean that's easier to fine-tune mid-air.
- Parallax: far layer is now screen-fixed, scaled uniformly (no stretch),
and pans exactly once from start to goal by level progress; mid/near
layers are bottom-anchored and tiled at their own uniform scales. Kids
render at depth -1 so the bus always draws over them.
- Level builder: size camera bounds to the level's actual terrain min/max
Y (with padding, 1000px floor) instead of a fixed 1000 height, so long
runs of declines no longer push the bus below the camera's reach.
- Add level 04 "Mega Drop" (5 kids, extended terrain ending in the mega
drop sequence).
Throttle/brake now apply a direct, ground-only force to the chassis on
top of spinning the wheel, since friction-mediated propulsion alone
couldn't reach a satisfying top speed. isGrounded() checks the engine's
live collision pairs instead of tallying start/end events, which left a
counter permanently stuck above zero when crossing segment seams and
turned airborne throttle into a rocket thruster.
Kid.destroy() and GForceMonitor.destroy() no longer call
matter.world.removeConstraint()/off(): by the time a scene's 'shutdown'
handler runs, the Matter World plugin has already torn down and nulled
this.matter.world, throwing 'Cannot read properties of null'. Matter's
World#shutdown() clears all bodies/constraints/listeners itself anyway,
so both removals were redundant, not just unsafe.
