BLOCKING-ITEM DIAGNOSIS, filed first so E/A/F aren't waiting. Method: katoomba venue_night, settled, then
hide-a-layer-and-re-measure (frustum-accurate: a layer's cost = the tris that vanish when hidden), then the
same drill inside furniture bucketed by geometry.
VERDICT: the four GLB street-furniture props are 149,161 of 163,015 tris = 91.5% of the stress view.
OWNER: LANE E (asset tris), per the ledger's own rule. Decimation clears the gate with ~120k to spare.
Layer breakdown (baseline 163,015 tris / 88 draws):
chunk-furniture 151,341 (92.8%) | ground 9,932 | venue-presentation 770 | lighting 624 |
chunk-buildings 348 (0.2%) | venue-posters 222 | citizens/weather/tram/venue-pools 0
Buildings are 348 tris (the R3 atlas/instancing holds). Posters are 222 -- A's cap already worked and was
never the lever. Pools cost 0.
Inside furniture -- the four GLBs are the whole bill:
bench 1,942 tris/inst x64 = 60,202 (37%) <- procity_street_bench_01
bus_shelter 7,998 x10 = 55,986 (34%) <- procity_street_bus_shelter_01
bin 3,000 x19 = 18,000 (11%) <- procity_street_bin_01
food_cart 4,991 x8 = 14,973 (9%) <- procity_street_food_cart_01
pole/lamp/trees/novelty (primitives) x303 = 2,180 (1.3%)
Identity confirmed by DCC-authored material names (wire_143225087 = a Sketchfab scan, baked_mat,
"2 wood frame ", Material_0) -- E's GLBs, not our procedural materials. Two use MeshPhysicalMaterial.
WHY NOW (and why it is NOT the density widening): shop count doesn't drive this -- ROAD density does. Real
towns put the bench/bin/shelter cadence on a 966-edge graph, so ~100 GLB props land in the streamed set
where synthetic had a handful. A 1.2m bench at 1,942 tris is ~5x the entire building stock in frame. This is
B's own R6 note coming due ("street_bin 3.0k tris... a decimate to ~500 would give back tri headroom if the
combined-lane budget tightens").
-> E, suggested targets: bench 1942->~250, bus_shelter 7998->~600, bin 3000->~200, food_cart 4991->~400.
149,161 -> ~29,000 (saves ~120k). Projected: my 163k -> ~43k; F's 221,935 -> ~102k. Both far under 200k.
Cheap extra: drop the two MeshPhysicalMaterials to MeshStandardMaterial.
-> Fable: a B-side fallback exists (furniture.js already has a primitive fallback for every GLB prop via the
R4 use-if-ready path), so a distance-gated LOD is a contained B change I can land fast. NOT doing it
unilaterally -- per the ledger this is E's, and source decimation helps every town/view, not just this one.
-> F: my baseline is 163,015 vs your 221,935 on the same view -- my automation's rAF is throttled so the live
gig crowd never spawns (citizens measured 0). Furniture is still ~68% of your number; decimation clears the
gate on either baseline. Re-measure against the live crowd, not my figure.

PROCITY
A standalone, procedurally generated, fully walkable 90s-Australian shopping town — every building enterable (the Vuntra City trick), every interior seeded and themed: record stores, op shops, toy shops, book barns, video rental, pawnbrokers, milk bars, market stalls. Built on the proven house stack (three.js r175 vendored, plain JS, no build step) and the asset DNA of 90sDJsim + thriftgod. v1 is the system; the GODVERSE/BaseGod real-item content plugs in later.

The lanes (parallel Opus 4.8 sessions)
Each lane is a self-contained prompt. To run one, start an Opus session in this repo and say: "Read docs/LANES/LANE_X_….md and execute it." A–E are parallel-safe (disjoint files, standalone test pages); F integrates after they land.

v3.1 — THE FLIP: the town shows its best by default
The Friday-night layer soaked through alpha, beta, and the v3.0 release — so v3.1 flips it on by default, and the mature v2 flags flip with it. Boot the plain URL and each town seeds 2–4 venues (pub, band room, RSL) with a full seeded week of gigs, town-wide posters, and a Friday night that reads: a 4-piece band (trio + a seated drummer) with real instruments, a mixed crowd, an outdoor queue, a per-venue cover charge, muffled gig spill + walla and applause, town-wide streetlamp pools, and identity continuity — the ped you followed in is in the crowd. Plus weather, the tram, and the parallax interior-window shader, all live by default.
The covenant moved, it didn't disappear. ?classic=1 boots the exact v2 town — byte-identical
forever (synthetic golden 0x3fa36874, zero gig layer, zero fetch delta). That is the new frozen
regression target; the default boot is deterministic to the gig golden 0xb1d48ea1. Asset-free
(?noassets=1) composes with the default boot and stays silent-and-fine.
Flags — the four headliners are ON by default, each with a =0 opt-out; ?classic=1 is the
master off:
| flag | default | what |
|---|---|---|
?classic=1 |
off | the exact v2 boot — all four below off, byte-identical to the frozen baseline |
?gigs=0 |
on | the gig district — venues, week schedule, band/crowd/queue, cover, posters, night pass |
?weather=0 · ?tram=0 · ?winmap=0 |
on | seeded weather · the tram loop · the parallax interior-window shader |
?roster=v1 · ?pop=N |
stream | chunk-streamed citizen density is the baseline; ?roster=v1 restores the fixed roster |
?dig=0 · ?stock=real |
dig on | crate-riffle on record bins · real GODVERSE sleeves in the stock |
?noassets=1 · ?plansrc=osm · ?mute=1 · ?dbg=1 |
off | asset-free (zero network) · OSM plan source · silence · the window.DBG capture/soak harness |
?plansrc=osm&town=<key> |
— | boot a real Australian town: fixtures melbourne/katoomba/silverton, or a real OSM cache bendigo_real/castlemaine_real/fremantle_real/katoomba_real/newtown_real (ODbL, web/assets/towns/SOURCES.md). REAL ROADS: a cache with roads[] (schema v2) builds the CityPlan street graph from the town's actual OSM streets; without roads[] a cache marches onto synthetic avenues. Or just pick a town from the HUD selector — no URL needed |
v4.0-beta — the five towns, at density
Five real Australian towns (Katoomba, Newtown, Fremantle, Bendigo, Castlemaine — 292 shops) boot on
their actual OSM street graphs, at real retail density: secondhand heroes keep their footfall while the
street around them gets ~4× busier (texture, never a takeover). Venues bias toward the retail cluster, the
tram runs only where it fronts a real high street (Newtown/Castlemaine — elsewhere it was "a highway bus",
so it's fenced), and the in-HUD town selector reads the towns index, so you can just pick one. Every
town: deterministic, districted, silent under ?noassets, ?classic=1 still byte-identical to v2.
See docs/shots/v4_beta/ and the charter, docs/V4_REAL_MAP.md.

Release tour: docs/shots/release_v3_1/contact.html — the money shots on
the default boot, plus a ?classic=1 before/after. QA: tools/qa.sh --strict (classic regression +
default-boot gate + smokes + no-giants) --soak (the full-week soak); the seated drummer passes the
no-giants gate at the seated stature band [0.9,1.5] m.
