Every board effect the cockpit had no art for landed as the same purple
lightning-ring sprite, so a body stepping through a warp mouth wore the
ring over its own portrait. Eric wanted the purple wall to do the
animating. The portal effect now becomes a "surge" keyed by the mouth's
index in board.warps: the veil hung in that opening floods with its
texture, the swirl quickens and pales, and a ripple runs out to the
jambs before it settles back — nothing drawn over whoever stands in it.
The director used to steer the eyes toward that ring's cell on the pov
wizard's own crossing; it now aims at a surging mouth the same way, so
the heist's pinned frames render as before. Illusion and Pass Wall
crossings keep the shimmer sprite — stone has no veil to surge.
Scene gate: 29 of 30 frames unchanged. stone-gaze-s10-board drifts
0.21% with or without this change (the dashed sight line's phase), a
pre-existing flake left unblessed.

A ray threads a warp and keeps counting; a body cannot. Both cutaway
cameras (reel and live pane) backed down deepestFacing's corridor,
which meant a mouth-adjacent shot could measure its backing room
THROUGH the warp and park the eye off the board — a second of smeared
nothing whenever someone stepped a rim warp. cutawayStand now measures
standable ground, clamping warped rays at the mouth, so the shot stands
on real floor watching the veil instead.

Third pass, scoped from 7a32370. Three blind reviewers (engine, web,
server/tools) each concluded the work is coherent engineering with
seam-level tells; every finding was verified before touching a line.
Session biography left the comments: the bot brain's heuristics no
longer cite the opponent who taught them, the RNRX coma parenthetical
and the thief-chase citation are gone, the seat-wallet comments state
their invariants without the war stories, and process-named test
groups now name the behaviors they pin. The incident record lives
where history belongs — commit messages and the ledgers.
Structural dedup: one VISIONSTONE one-edge-sight loop serves both
LOS paths; one creature-arrival touch handler serves walking and
warp-stepping (error text aligned); one facingWedge helper draws both
keymap ribbons; one spriteVisibleInCol rule serves the draw pass and
the hover test (which also stops re-sorting per pointermove); and
deepestFacing joins the director, replacing four copied scans.
Test hardening exposed real rot the tells were hiding: the tight
CreatureState cast caught two literals with a bogus field masking
three missing ones; the number-hoarding rig had NEVER run (its
column didn't exist on seed 42 — it now carves its own geometry);
the bank-guard rig now drives the whole table to an arrival
assertion; the bent-trace test walls off straight sight so the bend
must answer. Silent `return`-on-rig-failure became loud throws, and
can-never-fail assertions were removed.
Sweep-up: the eyeTurn ghost comment, the stacked leave() doc
comments (leave now delegates to leaveLocal), the dead ternary in
the seat client, the kick handler's name-coercion drift, kick ledger
lines gain timestamps, archiveRoomFile reuses fileFor, the RULES_REV
alias retires in favor of the engine constant, hitTest un-exports,
the NUL-sentinel hover shape becomes an honest "none" variant, and
the steering holds get named constants. The bezel's stride cluster
also centers per the table's note.
288 tests, 24 ledgers verified, all workspaces typecheck.

A pane above the board plays the game through your own eyes while you
play it — the board below stays the tactical truth. One new module,
fpv/director.ts, extracts the reel's directorial instincts (the aim
ladder, the hurl test, the glide gatherer) so the replay and the live
pane share one eye and can never drift; Replay is refactored onto it
unchanged. LiveFirstPerson.svelte feeds the shared FirstPerson
renderer from the live event stream: every batch plays through the
same fx pipeline as the instant replay — projectiles, door swings,
conjurations growing — while the camera walks your strides, turns to
your aims and to actors in your sight, cuts away (with your own body
in frame) to deeds beyond it, and never idles nose-to-brick. Bodies
glide between server views. A ✕ hides the pane; the liveFp preference
(on by default) brings it back.
