Pond (SPRINT4 §E-1, decision 10): pond_water.png and pond_normal.png, for a
patch Lane B builds from the cloth's own nodes — same ride-the-nodes rule as the
tears, since a rigid disc would sit still while the belly moves under it. Alpha
is a radial feather and RGB darkens toward the centre, both encoded radially so
the shading survives being scaled per pondMass (radius ~ sqrt(mass)). Water is
grey-green, not blue: rain caught in a sail is shallow, murky and mirrors an
overcast sky.
Both at 256², not 512²: smooth low-frequency content, and at 512 they were
256 KB + 320 KB against ~20 KB for every other texture here. The chop is seven
waves at golden-angle directions rather than three crossed sines, which
interfered into a lattice and read as basketweave; the normal map gets six
integer-frequency waves for the same reason, and still asserts its own tiling.
broom_01 (§E-2): poke_tip sits on the bristle end deliberately — a broomstick
jabbed at a loaded sail holes it.
Renames fence_panel_broken to fence_panel_snapped to match SPRINT4 §A-4/§E-3.
Lane A's dress() guards every load, so the mismatch would not have crashed —
the wreckage would silently never have appeared, which is worse.
All 21 assets pass, 33 output files byte-identical across two runs, 186/0/0.

Textures (SPRINT2 §Lane E-2). sail_weave.png is a seamless 512² knitted
shade-cloth weave with the stripe banding real cloth has; the script proves the
wrap by evaluating a second tile and requiring an exact match, because Lane B is
being told to set RepeatWrapping and a bad wrap would seam across the whole
sail. Luminance rides in a narrow band so it multiplies the base colour instead
of replacing it — high contrast reads as burlap, not HDPE. Dropped the per-pixel
noise: invisible at ±0.012 and incompressible, it cost 305 KB of the 323.
sail_tears.png is a strip of 4 escalating rips. Each is a lens, not a slit —
fabric under tension parts widest in the middle and tapers to a point, and a
constant-width gap reads as a drawn line. Threads bridge the gap, scaled to the
local width; without them a dark lens is a hole rather than a tear.
Dressing (§Lane E-3): wheelie_bin_01 (240 L, 12 kg, `lid` on its own node so it
flaps before the bin goes over), washing_line_01 (a Hills Hoist — the `head`
freewheels, giving a second wind tell at head height), garden_gnome_01
(collateral bait: a smashed gnome reads where a damage number doesn't).
Bin and tramp land in models/debris/ for Lane C to glob. All 19 assets pass, 28
output files byte-identical across two runs, selftest 129/0/0.

16 generated assets plus the grass billboard atlas and the four debris models
copied verbatim from the 3D-STORE library (copies rule, §0). All meter-scale,
Y-up, and far under the 15k tri budget — garden_bed is heaviest at 2,580.
Regeneration is byte-deterministic: two consecutive runs produce identical
files, so re-running the factory causes no churn.
