m3ultra 201a2bb868 Lane F R21 (v4.0-beta close): the beta gate — tram dimension, the re-measure, the beta shot
All five lanes in (A's venue cluster bias, B's selector-from-index, C's density door-soak, D's relocation
verify PASSES, E's 22-town pack non-gating); F gated and tagged.

- town_matrix.py: a `tram` dimension — B's R20 shop-adjacency ruling verified EXACTLY (newtown runs 16 stops
  after B's phantom-stop fix, castlemaine 10; katoomba/fremantle/bendigo FENCED at 3/2/1 shops fronted, all
  below the 5-shop floor). 10 towns x 7 gates: boot/determ/district/roads/tram/noassets green on all ten.
- index.html: expose window.PROCITY.tram — B built `routeInfo` FOR F's smoke but nothing published it; F owns
  the shell, so F wired the seam.
- RECORDED (ledger #6b — the instruction was "record the new number"): the venue_night re-measure. A's cap
  WORKED (posters 438->111) but E's density widening ate it — katoomba 200,965 (+965, R19) -> 221,935
  (+21,935, +11%); bendigo 201k (+0.5%); fremantle/newtown/castlemaine in budget. Draws fine everywhere
  (151/300 — half budget); tris-only, at the worst night stress view. Filed as R22's first item, where the
  tri-diet backlog (instrument LOD, tram tri diet) already lives. katoomba is the outlier: 966 edges, 72 shops.
- Ruling (ledger #6d): the town selector stays ALWAYS-IN-HUD, not ?dbg-gated — THE REAL MAP's product IS the
  towns. Corollary (F's own gap): money shots hide the HUD; the R19 alpha shot had the selector in-frame
  because F's harness screenshotted the full viewport.
- Beta money shot: Fremantle's real street at golden hour — a corridor of shopfronts, footpaths, a crossing,
  gum trees, and a genuinely busy crowd (the density widening, visible). 126d/167k tris, HUD hidden.
- docs: LANE_F_NOTES §20 (the honest why-R20-had-no-tag record) + §21, README beta paragraph, F-progress.

qa.sh --strict GREEN; selfcheck 154141/154141 (A's re-pinned goldens hold).

# 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.
## Run
```
cd web && python3 -m http.server 8130
# http://localhost:8130 (game shell — Lane B)
# http://localhost:8130/map.html (2D plan debugger — Lane A)
```
## Read first
- **`docs/CITY_SPEC.md`** — the treaty: schema, units, seeds, budgets, file ownership.
- **`docs/RESEARCH.md`** — what the parent repos already solved, with exact paths to port from.
## 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."** AE are parallel-safe (disjoint files,
standalone test pages); F integrates after they land.
| lane | mission | owns |
|---|---|---|
| [A — CITYGEN](docs/LANES/LANE_A_CITYGEN.md) | seed → CityPlan data (streets, blocks, lots, shops) + 2D map | `js/citygen`, `js/core/registry.js`, `map.html` |
| [B — STREETSCAPE](docs/LANES/LANE_B_STREETSCAPE.md) | chunk-streamed instanced 3D town + game shell | `index.html`, `js/world` |
| [C — INTERIORS](docs/LANES/LANE_C_INTERIORS.md) | every door opens: seeded themed shop interiors | `js/interiors`, `interior_test.html` |
| [D — CITIZENS](docs/LANES/LANE_D_CITIZENS.md) | rigged-near / impostor-far NPCs + shopkeepers | `js/citizens`, `citizens_test.html`, `models/` |
| [E — ASSETS](docs/LANES/LANE_E_ASSETS.md) | audit ultra's library, normalize GLBs, skins, manifest | `pipeline/`, `assets/` |
| [F — INTEGRATION](docs/LANES/LANE_F_INTEGRATION.md) | wire AE into one seed-to-town game + QA gates | (after AE) |
## Already in the repo
- `web/vendor/` — three.js r175 + addons (vendored from 90sDJsim; no CDN at runtime).
- `web/assets/gen/` — 69 generated texture skins (25 shopfront facades, 10 skies, 10 grounds,
8 wallpapers, 16 interior surfaces) inherited from thriftgod + 90sDJsim, style-locked.
- `web/js/core/` — frozen shared modules: `prng.js` (seeded-everything law), `loaders.js`
(fail-soft promise-cached GLB/texture + 3GOD depot), `canvas.js` (text planes).
## House laws (short form — CITY_SPEC has the fine print)
Seeded everything, `Math.random` banned in gen code · the game must run with zero assets ·
instancing from day one · canvas text, no font files · characters = shared base rigs + one
clip bank, canonical sources live outside this repo · 🟢 web-ok licensing only.
## 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 **24 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/`](docs/shots/v4_beta/) and the charter, [`docs/V4_REAL_MAP.md`](docs/V4_REAL_MAP.md).
| `?seed=N` | `20261990` | town seed |
**Release tour:** [`docs/shots/release_v3_1/contact.html`](docs/shots/release_v3_1/) — 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`.
