- Swap the command deck's "Build" slot for a "Scan" slot that fires an
omnidirectional sonar pulse from the ship across the tether region.
- The wavefront is clipped to the union of tether circles: it is absorbed
at the rim (bright absorbing arc + TetherField.excite shiver) instead of
flying into empty space.
- Objects inside the region ring as the front crosses them (shock rings,
RGB ghost, scale pulse); the starfield ripples and the camera thumps /
rolls with the wave, then restores itself on completion or cancel.
- New modules: js/scan/ScanPulse.js (rendering + lifecycle),
js/scan/ScanGeometry.js (pure circle-circle window math).
- All tuning lives in data/scan.json; the one SFX is the new "scan" key
in data/sfx.json. Results are a seam for now — finishScan logs the
in-region objects and reports the count in the console slot.
- Tests: dev/scan.test.mjs (geometry unit tests) and
dev/scan-test.html/.mjs (headless flow test driving the real scene).
- Add Terran shop placeholder assets (two PNGs + one MP4).
- New SurfaceScene overlays GameScene when the player requests landing:
plays a one-shot landing clip, then a looping surface clip behind a
dedicated command deck (Shop/Build/Ship + Take Off + Menu).
- Wire comms panel "Request Landing" / "Land" buttons to launch the
surface; TAKE OFF stops SurfaceScene and wakes GameScene so the run
resumes exactly where it left off.
- ActionBar accepts an optional `buttons` override so scenes can supply a
different slot list while sharing layout/colors/animation.
- SavePanel gains a `stateScene` option so saves from the surface read
state from the paused GameScene underneath.
- Add data/landing.json (per-frame video map) and four placeholder
surface clips; CommsPanel now passes its full target payload through to
onAction so landing metadata survives the round-trip.
- Add dev harnesses: headless-Firefox screenshot helper, click-path test
for the real user flow, and a surface-flow assertion suite with parked
screenshot pages.
- Remove the drawn slot icons (research/build/ship/menu/reserved) and their RGB ghost copies; keep the GlitchText split on labels and panel outline only.
- Center button text vertically and shrink the bar height from 92 to 56 px now that there is no icon row.
- Drop iconSize/iconY config and the drawIcon helper, and update README/comments to match the label-only design.
- Port the menu's GlitchText chromatic fringe to ActionBar: additive
magenta/cyan icon ghosts, label ghosts with per-slot phase, and a panel
outline ghost that activates during glitch bursts.
- Add a tiled-scanline overlay (1 dark row per pitch) matching CyberOverlay,
configurable via actionbar.scanline with theme.overlay.scanline defaults.
- Replace idleGhost with animation.rgb (idleOffset/burstOffset/idleAlpha/
burstAlpha); level now decays ~90 ms after triggerBurst for the fast-snap
GlitchText feel while slice bars linger.
- Update README, PROJECT_NOTES, and research-builds tests to cover the new
scanline and rgb config keys.
- New ActionBar component (js/ui/ActionBar.js) renders a procedural cyberpunk
bottom bar with six slots (Research, Build, Ship, two reserved, Menu),
boot flicker, rail comet, glitch bursts, and RGB shimmer; fully driven by
data/actionbar.json
- Data contracts for the player's progression loop: research.json (time-based,
one project at a time, gates builds/research) and builds.json (credits +
minerals, ship/planet/station categories), both with _template docs and
empty maps; registered in manifest.json
- GameScene wires the deck in, routes clicks over it away from fly-to, pins
the hint above the bar, and drives per-frame update/shutdown
- New dev/research-builds.test.mjs pins the data contract (manifest entries,
rule knobs, template fields, six-slot order)
- cdpshot.mjs: cross-platform temp dir + --no-sandbox for container/CI
- README and PROJECT_NOTES updated with the new loop, deck docs, and a Phaser
v4 scrollFactor-on-screen-fixed-container quirk
