Village panel now shows daily consumption rates alongside stockpiles (e.g. Food: 15 (-2/d), Wood: 7 (-1/d)). Rates are computed over a rolling 200-tick (~1 day) window by summing item_consumed economic events. The rate display only appears when non-zero, keeping the panel clean until actual consumption occurs. Closes the feedback loop: events show individual transfers, rates show aggregate trends.
Press [ to slow down, ] to speed up through 6 levels: 0.25x, 0.5x, 1x, 2x, 4x, 10x. Clock delta is multiplied by the current speed, so time_of_day advances proportionally and the visual day-night cycle stays synced. Current speed shown in the village panel header. 10x makes a full day cycle watchable in ~24 seconds. Speed changes are non-destructive to simulation determinism.
NPCs who target the same resource or site concurrently gain mutual familiarity +0.1 per encounter, capped at 1.0. Action selection now receives the full NPC array and adds a +0.3 utility bonus for actions that familiar NPCs are currently performing - NPCs gravitate toward their housemates' professions. Inspector shows the highest-familiarity NPC with a percentage score under the resource lines.
Record resource_depleted narrative events when NPC or player extraction exhausts a ResourceNode. Add get_recent_events() for cross-NPC event queries. Village panel now shows the last 3 village-wide events as a readable feed below the resource counters, making shortages and depletion visible without opening the inspector.
Add narrative event types (task_started, npc_slept, npc_died, resource_depleted) alongside economic transfers. EconomicEventRecord gains create_narrative factory and human-readable description method. SimulationManager records task-start and sleep/death events, exposes get_npc_events() for per-NPC history queries. Inspector now shows a Recent timeline of the last 5 events for the selected NPC, plus displays carried wood count. Relax EconomicEventRecord validation to accept non-economic events. Update roadmap with completed milestones.
Wood now follows the same gather-carry-deposit pattern as food. NPCs put harvested wood into inventory, walk to the VillageWoodpile StorageNode, and deposit it. Village wood syncs from storage. Player harvesting also routes wood to the woodpile. ActiveWorldAdapter exposes woodpile routing for DEPOSIT_WOOD action targeting. WorldViewManager recognizes wood inventory changes. Tests verify woodpile node existence, storage ID, navigation reachability, and adapter routing.
- Wind strokes now flow in a single prevailing direction (left-to-right breeze)
with gentle flatness, narrow spread, and subtle tangential sway
- Added floating white specks (WindSpecks) as sunlight pollen/dust motes
- Two of each emitter (valley + ridge) for layered atmosphere
- Terrain: disabled auto_base_texture for flatter painted look, enabled
overlay texture, bolder macro-variation (yellow-green 0.78/0.90/0.42
and emerald 0.55/0.75/0.38), sharper material blends
- Reduce hunger rate to 0.125/tick (~25/day) for ~6-7 day death timeline
- Slow energy drain: idle 0.125, travel 0.5, work 0.5, complete 0.0625/tick
- Use exact binary fractions for all rates to preserve float precision in save/load
- Starving/critically-hungry NPCs always override sleep to seek food first
- Extend starvation death threshold from 20 to 600 ticks (~3 days of starvation)
- Add calligraphy-style wind stroke particles (WindStrokes scene + shader)
- Two wind stroke emitters in valley and ridge for Ghibli atmosphere
- Rework terrain macro-variation colors for vibrant warm-green palette
- Enhance environment: stronger glow/bloom, higher saturation, warmer sky/fog/ambient
DayNightCycle now reads time_of_day from SimulationManager group node, falling back to self-tracked elapsed for lookdev scenes. Simulation starts at 06:00 morning (tick 50) by default. TimeDial reads directly from SimulationManager and displays HH:MM format with a 24-hour dial arc. Removed initial_cycle override from JajceLookdev.
- Upgrade river shader with multi-layer UV flow, fresnel edges, foam highlights, and specular sparkle
- Upgrade waterfall shader with dual-band scrolling, distinct foam contrast, and rim transparency
- Widen river (8m) and waterfall (8m) for greater visual presence
- Increase waterfall mist particles to 72 with wider spread and longer lifetime
- Add fortress crenellations (10), three turrets, and prominent ridge banner for readable skyline silhouette
- Remove duplicate banner nodes from JajceWorld instance (now owned by FortressBlockout scene)
- Update BUILD_IN_PUBLIC_PLAN and LEARNING_ROADMAP to reflect completion
Camera: desired_focus_position.y now directly tracks the player's global Y. The existing smooth lerp on focus_position handles interpolation, so the camera follows the player up hills and down slopes without losing vertical sight. Previously only horizontally-deadzoned XZ was tracked.
jajce_world.gd: expanded terrain-snapping coverage to include all nodes under WorldObjects (ResourceNodes, StorageSites, ActivitySites) and the FortressBlockout's children. Added a type guard so non-Node3D children are safely skipped. This prevents houses, activity props, storage crates, and resource nodes from floating above or sinking below the sculpted terrain surface.
Enable Terrain3D collision_mode=1 so the sculpted landscape provides real physical ground for player and NPCs. Disable GreyboxGround collision (layer/mask = 0) -- it is no longer the active physical floor.
NpcVisual no longer flattens nav waypoint Y to its current elevation. It now follows 3D path points and uses gravity (30 m/s^2) like the player, settling to terrain surface via is_on_floor() + Terrain3D collision. The flat NavigationMesh_greybox still provides correct lateral guidance; physics handles vertical grounding on slopes.
This fixes the player-walking-through-slopes bug and makes NPC movement follow actual terrain elevation for the village area (gentle slopes, ~2.4m noise amplitude). All 10 scenarios pass.
