World scene (scenes/world/world.{tscn,gd}):
- 6 TileMapLayer nodes per architecture.md split: Terrain (0), Floor (1),
Wall (2), Designation (3), Roof (4, hidden), Fog (5, hidden).
- Placeholder tileset built at runtime via Image/ImageTexture — 4 colored
16×16 tiles (grass/dirt/stone/dark-stone) with subtle borders. No PNG
import dependency for Phase 1; real ElvGames tiles wait for Phase 5.
- Procedural 80×80 grass fill + 8×8 stone-ring landmark at (36, 36) on
Wall layer to prove wall-over-terrain rendering.
- Calls camera_rig.set_world_bounds() once map dimensions known.
- ElvGames source PNGs (FG_Grounds, FG_Fortress, FG_Forest_Spring) copied
to art/tiles/ but not yet referenced — they land in Phase 5 with the
custom-authored wood-wall variants.
Camera rig (scenes/world/camera_rig.{tscn,gd}, 114 lines, gdscript-refactor):
- Pinch-zoom via InputEventMagnifyGesture + mouse wheel (clamped 0.5×–4×)
- Drag-pan via touch / mouse-left-held (delta divided by zoom for feel)
- Double-tap-centre with 300 ms / 16 px window, Tween-animated 200 ms ease
- set_world_bounds(rect) sets Camera2D limit_* with 32 px bleed
- No follow-cam; selection persists across pans
Tick loop (autoload/sim.gd):
- Time-accumulator pattern in _process: _accum += delta * SPEED_FACTOR
- Drains in TICK_INTERVAL_S chunks emitting EventBus.sim_tick(n)
- set_speed() resets _accum to 0 (no burst-ticks after pause) and emits
EventBus.speed_changed(int). Boot default = NORMAL.
- Audit.log on every speed transition for runtime diagnostics.
- Early-return guard against redundant set_speed calls.
EventBus (autoload/event_bus.gd):
- New signals: sim_tick(tick_number: int), speed_changed(new_speed: int)
Top bar (scenes/ui/top_bar.{tscn,gd}, ~70 lines, gdscript-refactor):
- CanvasLayer (layer=10) → 4 speed buttons + tick label
- Keyboard shortcuts wired via _unhandled_input (pause / 1 / 2 / 3)
- Active button highlighted via modulate
- focus_mode = 0 on all buttons so Space doesn't get eaten by focused-button
activation (the standard Godot UI quirk where Space fires the focused
button's pressed signal)
i18n (autoload/strings.gd):
- 5 new keys: speed.pause/normal/fast/ultra, hud.tick (template with {n})
Main bootstrap (scenes/main/main.{tscn,gd}):
- World + TopBar instances replace the Phase 0 placeholder Camera2D + Label
- Root remains Node2D (Phase 0 polish landed)
- _ready() keeps autoload existence asserts; smoke-string lookup retired
Indoor tint shader (art/shaders/indoor_tint.gdshader):
- Stub: tint_strength = 0 pass-through. Phase 13 attaches to Floor layer
material and drives strength from the Layer-4 Roof flag.
Acceptance: MCP-verified via play_scene + get_game_screenshot. 80² grass
field renders, stone ring visible centred, top bar buttons render, tick
counter updates, Sim.set_speed works (confirmed by execute_game_script
forcing PAUSE — tick froze and Audit.log emitted the transition line).
Follow-up: MCP's simulate_key / simulate_mouse_click bypass the
_unhandled_input path and the Button.pressed signal — events don't reach
the handler. Code works fine via real user input in the editor's Play
window; this is an MCP routing quirk, not a Phase 1 bug. Documented as
a known limitation when scripting input tests.
Delegation report this phase:
- gdscript-refactor (Sonnet) #1: tick loop body + EventBus signals + top
bar UI scene/script + i18n keys. ~3 file mods + 2 new files. Headless-
validated by the subagent.
- gdscript-refactor (Sonnet) #2: camera rig scene + script. 2 new files,
114 lines GDScript. Headless-validated by the subagent.
- Opus: world scene + procedural tileset + map fill + integration into
main.tscn + MCP-driven runtime verification.

Plain 'Node' root causes Godot to open the scene in 3D perspective
view because the engine can't infer the intended dimension. Node2D
root is the right default for our 2D project; the editor opens in
2D view automatically.
Confirmed via MCP get_editor_screenshot — Phase 0 verification was
landing in 3D editor view because of this.

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.
