index.html:428 (Lane D's patronage door points, since R8) and :500 (doorOf, the R32 cluster-pose
spawn) computed the shop front as (-sin ry, -cos ry) — the BACK of the building. buildings.js:410,
:583-597 put the facade, the door and the doorRect at local +Z; dbg.js:53 says so in words;
minimap.js has always drawn its front tick there. Two characters, both sites.
THE PATRONAGE DOOR POINT, on the footpath (registry.js's own roadWidth/vergeBand split, outside the
carriageway, outside every lot):
synthetic 0/493 -> 427/493 median 26.22 m -> 9.40 m from the centreline
katoomba_real 0/72 -> 67/72 19.10 -> 3.90
fitzroy_real 0/139 -> 139/139 19.10 -> 3.90
bowral_real 0/30 -> 28/30 21.10 -> 5.90
Not one door point in the corpus was on a footpath. Lane D's peds ducked into the back fence.
THE SPAWN, booted code both sides (:8702 the fog commit, :8701 the fix, nothing monkey-patched):
synthetic (25.5,-17.9) 3 shops within 25 m, 0 in front, 0 discovered
-> (6.1,-19.8) 4 within 25 m, 4 in front, 4 discovered
katoomba (-219.0,-471.3) 3/0/0 -> (-200.0,-474.4) 4/4/4
And in the picture (docs/shots/laneB_r39/sign-*): katoomba's shipped boot opens STANDING IN A
PADDOCK FACING THE BLANK BACK WALL OF A BUILDING — the R31 playtest's own complaint, the one R32 was
written to fix and, because of the sign, never did.
NO GOLDEN MOVES: SPAWN and the patronage points are runtime pose, computed in the shell from a plan
it never writes. Lane A selfcheck either side: fingerprint 0x5f76e76 -> 0x5f76e76, 157,647/157,647.
?classic=1 never enters the branch and keeps the frozen (-96, 9) pose.
-> LANE F: the R32 cluster-pose spawn gate and the R35 first-five-minutes smoke both photograph this
pose and need re-baselining. The falsifiable arm that needs no picture: at spawn, the count of shops
within 25 m that are IN FRONT of the player must be > 0 (0 on 4/4 towns before, 4 on 4/4 after).
THE LINEAGE, written down as Fable asked — this is the FOURTH instance of the same confusion:
R13 RY_FLIP (the band 180 deg off) · R15 the venue poster on the back wall (15.9 m from the facade,
0.07 m from the back) · R27 every real-town shopfront facing the paddock (dot = -1.000 on 35/35 and
72/72 lots; CITY_SPEC:71 says -Z, :335 says +Z) · R39 these two. Every time the rig/pose convention
is local -Z and the visible front is local +Z, and every time it was caught by a PICTURE or by a
consumer with a different convention — never by a metric. A heading has no falsifiable arm inside
the file that computes it.
