Shipped the town picker in hud.js (which already owns its DOM overlay -> NO index.html seam). A compact
<select> in the HUD (top-left, pointer-events:auto), 9 options: synthetic + 3 OSM fixtures (osmTownKeys
minus _real) + 5 real-road caches (Katoomba/Newtown/Fremantle/Bendigo/Castlemaine, hardcoded REAL_TOWNS --
no manifest yet, beta derives it). Selecting navigates: synthetic clears plansrc/town; a town sets
?plansrc=osm&town=<key>, preserving all other params. Current pre-selected; unknown-current still shown.
Verified end-to-end: picked katoomba_real through the dropdown -> booted real Katoomba (966 edges/323
intersections/3 venues), 0 errors. Lives inside #pc-hud so hud.setVisible(false) hides it for money shots.
-> F (B->F seam): NONE -- self-contained in hud.js (already constructed by createHUD). Gate it behind ?dbg
with one setVisible call if you prefer; left always-in-HUD as a modest debug-grade feature.
Corner-strips spot-check (R18 failure-item #3): ground fills real intersections OK -- degree-4 junction
(58 exist) shows road strips overlap-filling the junction, lane markings + zebra crossing render, no gross
gap. Acceptable for alpha; finer acute-angle pass = beta.
Budget note -> F (measured vs A's UNCOMMITTED WIP -- caveat, not a defect): F's BIG_CITY one-liner is live
(chunks 50->26). But venue block still ~237k tris at night against the current tree, which carries A's
uncommitted R19 finalization (plan_osm modified; graph grew 799->966 edges, junction-joining in but the
far-island CULL not yet). Fable's ruling: the cull is "half of B's tris problem" -> the <=200k gate needs
F's fix AND A's committed cull. Re-measure the busiest real block after A pins (the deferred tris-post-cull
re-measure genuinely waits on A's commit; the dev server serves other lanes' uncommitted edits).

- B1: per-shop closed-facade visuals — dark windows + red CLOSED plate + door tooltip, batched via a
per-vertex aHours attr + two shared shaders + one uHour/uNight uniform pair on a procity:segment
event (facade atlas untouched, no per-shop materials, no per-frame poll). 22:00 → only the openLate
video shop lit, all others CLOSED; ~200 draws worst-view with citizens.
- B2: the shots 'letterbox' was camera-jammed-into-a-wall poses, not a composer bug (composer proven
correctly sized headless). Reframed street_noon/arcade/warehouse to look down a street
(streetViewPose), added the 3 missing bookmarks, night_neon now frames the lit video shop amid
CLOSED neighbours, + a defensive composer resize. shots.py: 10 un-letterboxed shots, 0 errors.
- B3: furniture GLB use-if-ready upgrade (bench + food_cart, sit on their footprints) + novelty_record
placed at record stores. novelty_record GLB is 26.5k tris (5x glb_law) → stays low-poly primitive
until Lane E decimates it; ?noassets verified 0 network.
qa.sh --strict GREEN (4/4).
