  "_comment": "MAP — the deck's MAP button (to the right of SHIP): the full-screen cartography console, js/ui/MapWindow.js (depth 80, the ResearchWindow idiom). LEFT = the cartography feed (assets/videos/map.mp4, a muted 2:3 loop, the same recipe as the research archive feed). RIGHT = tabs on top (CURRENT SYSTEM is live; GALAXY is a reserved socket — pressing it toasts the lock line), the SYSTEM CHART in the middle, and the SYSTEM readout on the bottom (name + discovery % + resource %). THE CHART (the magic, drawn to a canvas texture): the whole solar system — every object's extent (planets, stations, gates AND asteroid clusters, discovered or not) + `bounds.padding` px of padding on each edge — fitted to the plate. Only DISCOVERED objects are drawn (planets / stations / gates / rock fields, small representations). The TETHER RANGE is drawn as the union boundary (Tether.visibleArcs) with a soft zone glow inside, and everything OUTSIDE the tether union is grayed out (a fog-of-war dim pass with feathered rim) — so the chart reads as 'here is what you have charted, and here is the room to expand'. A live SHIP marker + hover tooltips + click-to-autopilot (GameScene.autopilotTo) sit on top. All colors/motion are steered here.",
