Pawns now render as AnimatedSprite2D children sourced from ElvGames
"Farming Characters Pack" atlases (Pack 1, characters 001-015). Each
pawn picks one of 15 peasants deterministically from name hash:
Bram=004, Cora=013, Edda=001.
Animations: idle_down/left/right/up + walk_down/left/right/up (4 fps
idle, 8 fps walk, looped) + dead (single frame, no loop). Pawn picks
animation each _process tick from (is_downed, is_walking, facing).
Facing is now a Vector2i field updated in _advance_walk; round-trips
through save/load.
Sprite mounting is deferred from _ready() to setup() / from_dict()
because the atlas pick depends on pawn_name, which isn't assigned at
_ready time. _mount_sprite() is idempotent for the save-load chain.
_atlas_for_pawn(pawn) is the single Slice-2 extension point —
swapping atlases based on equipped armor in a future sprint is a
one-function change.
_draw() stripped of body disc + downed-rotation; now overlay-only
(selection ring + carry indicator). AnimatedSprite2D child uses
z_index=-1 so the overlays stay on top.
45 PNGs copied into art/sprites/characters/ + 45 .import companions.
Workbenches: replace atlas sprites (which read as chest-of-drawers,
candle base, kitchen stove, cushion stack) with procedural _draw_ methods
following CremationPyre._draw_pyre's pattern. Carpenter shows a wood bench
with saw + log slabs; Smelter a stone furnace with smoking chimney; Hearth
a tall h=2 stone fireplace with arched opening + log fire; Millstone a
wood frame supporting a round grindstone wheel.
Trees: add Summer + Fall atlases alongside Spring (12 visual variants
from 4 silhouettes × 3 seasons). Selection hash mixes season independently
so neighbouring tiles don't all share the same palette.
Replaces the procedural stem-and-circle draw with an ElvGames atlas-backed
Sprite2D. Crops now pick a per-kind 64×32 (or 80×32) sheet from
art/sprites/crops/ and slice cols 0..3 across the SOWN..READY stage range
(TILLED keeps the bare dirt rect). The plant sprite is anchored so its
bottom edge sits at the tile bottom, matching the tree convention.
Four kinds wired in: wheat, potato, corn, strawberry. The boot demo's
crop patch now plants one column per kind so all four show up in the
spring start state. Harvest outputs map: wheat/corn → grain,
potato/strawberry → vegetable.
Tooltip already capitalises crop_kind so 'Corn' / 'Strawberry' show
through with no UI change.
Replaces three procedural _draw() entities with bundle sprites:
- Tree: was draw_rect trunk + draw_circle canopy. Now Sprite2D using
FG_Tree_Spring.png (64x80, 4 variants picked deterministically from
tile coord). Bottom-anchored so trunk base sits at tile bottom, canopy
rises into the cell above; y_sort_enabled so canopies tuck behind
pawns south of the trunk. Chop-progress notch overlay retained.
- Rock: was draw_colored_polygon hex. Now Sprite2D reading from the
existing FG_Grasslands_Spring.png decoration atlas at three eyeballed
coords (2 gray boulders, 1 brown rock pile). Variant deterministic
per tile. Mine-progress crack overlay retained.
- Stone wall: was procedural top-band + front-band + mortar lines. Now
Sprite2D from FG_Fortress.png at (1,1) — clean tan-stone brick fill.
Bottom-anchored (offset.y=-8) so the 16x16 sprite spans y=-16..0,
matching the procedural draw box exactly. Ghost state via modulate.a.
Wood walls still use procedural _draw_wood_wall — no clean 16x16 wood
tile found in the bundle yet (Pixel Crawler Walls.png is 32x32, would
need crop+rescale).
Asset additions:
- art/sprites/FG_Tree_Spring.png (Tier 1, Grasslands pack)
- FG_Fortress.png and FG_Grasslands_Spring.png were already in art/tiles
from earlier passes; this commit just consumes them from new sites.
Headless boots clean, runtime verified: trees look like chunky pixel-art
trees with root flare, rocks read as real boulders, cabin walls show
proper brick texture.

Credit-string compilation still open.

Project scaffold:
- project.godot at repo root, GL Compatibility renderer (max mobile reach),
pixel-snap on, texture filter nearest, sensor_landscape orientation
- 7 autoloads: World, Sim, GameState, EventBus, Strings, Audit, SaveSystem
- scenes/main/main.{tscn,gd} smoke-test scene with autoload assertions
- Folder layout matches tavernkeep idiom: autoload/ at root, scripts
co-located with scenes/ (not the scripts/autoloads/ mirror originally
sketched in implementation.md)
- Input map: pause, speed_cycle, speed_normal/fast/ultra, confirm, cancel.
Mobile gestures (pinch/drag/long-press) handled at script level via
Godot's InputEventScreenTouch/Drag/MagnifyGesture.
- SaveSystem skeleton: SAVE_VERSION=1, JSON to user://save_slot.json,
version-mismatch warning. Phase 3 expands to real entity state.
- icon.svg placeholder (cabin silhouette on dark green field)
- README.md points at memory.md / implementation.md / docs/
Headless verification: 'godot --headless --path . --quit' exits 0,
'[main] Phase 0 smoke test online.' prints, no errors. Editor-side
green-dot check still pending — needs human launch of editor.
Asset audit (researcher Haiku, 2026-05-10):
- FG_Houses.png NOT autotile-solvable — pre-built decorative house
compositions, 4 distinct roof palettes, no modular wall family.
~½–1 day per material to author terrain bits on top.
- FG_Fortress.png IS autotile-solvable — ~20–30 modular tan-stone
pieces. Wang-style Godot 4 terrain works with minimal extra art.
Iconic Homestead $19.99 fallback not needed.
- No wolf sprite anywhere in the bundle. EvoMonster packs all
cute/fantasy. Need commission, CC0 source, or Ventilatore check.
- Retro Graveyard 16x16 [Kingdom Explorer] confirmed in Tier 3 with
full graveyard suite — direct use in Phase 14.
New open questions surfaced in memory.md:
- Player-built wall material strategy (3 options laid out)
- Wolf sprite acquisition path (Phase 10 blocker)
Project move:
- Repo physical location moved from ~/claude/projects/rimlike to
/mnt/d/godot/rimlike (D: drive, fast for Windows-side editor).
- Symlink at the original WSL path preserves the home-CLAUDE.md
layout convention. Mirrors tavernkeep's pattern.
- Set core.filemode=false to silence DrvFs's everything-is-0777
false-positive on git diff.
