A player asked for cards down the side instead of along the bottom.
With the new pref on (wide screens only), the hand claims a sticky,
scrolling column at the left while the hint strips and action buttons
stay beneath the board — the table-edge dissolves into the grid so its
children place themselves. The strip moves inside the .game grid to
make that possible; the default bottom layout spans the full row as
before, and phones keep their one-column flow.

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.

The eye earned its place — every notable turn offers its reel unless a
player has switched it off, and an explicit off stays respected.

The dream feature lands, behind a preference that ships off for now.
The chronicle's lines grow structure — each knows its turn, counted by
the same boundary events on both ends of the wire (the server counts
the deal's own events too, or every number would sit one turn behind).
The first notable line of a turn — combat, spectacle, a targeted cast
— wears a small eye; clicking it asks the server for that one turn's
steps, rebuilt and redacted like any reel, and the replay opens
STRAIGHT into first person through the eyes of the wizard whose turn
it was: their position, the viewer's knowledge, nothing private leaked.
It plays that turn and stops. Save-video and the board toggle come
along for free.
Two camera bugs die with it: the replay tween effect tracked its own
writes, restarting the ease every frame until walks decayed into the
slow wall-piercing drift Eric saw — untracked reads run one tween per
step now. And the reel camera follows whichever eyes the reel wears,
not always your own.

An optional confirmation (on by default, one checkbox to silence) catches
the classic table groans before they land: ending the turn with movement
unspent, ending it with a hand too full to take the draw, and walking off
— or ending on — your own home with a deliverable treasure still in your
arms. Preferences also learn a default automaton skill, remembered from
either the prefs panel or the lobby's tier picker.

Your wizard's name pre-fills the lobby (and is remembered whenever you
create or join), and a preferred color — six swatches in the slip, tap
again for none — is claimed quietly in any lobby where it is free and
you have not chosen. First-come still wins a contested color; the
preference never bumps anyone.

A ⚙ preferences slip in the masthead, saved to this device:
- Token art, all or nothing: the photographed cardboard or the
hand-drawn vectors (the workshop's per-category query params stay as
the undocumented editing override).
- Ending a turn on a lone grabbable treasure picks it up on the way
out — never on your own home, never when two share the square.
- Spell flourishes on or off, honored by the live board and the
replay reel alike (trap notices still fire; they are information).
Preferences change what you see or what routine commands the client
sends for you — never what is legal.
