Phase 19 handoff
Phase 19 is in progress on the local branch feature/phase-19-scenery. This is a continuation note for the next work session/computer; the detailed product, UI, and architecture contracts remain in the linked documents below. The branch is local and must be pushed after the reviewed changes are committed before another computer can fetch it.
Current state
The integrated feature lets children choose a Sky, place and edit inert Scenery artwork and wall panels, paint Ground finishes, use editable starter scenes, and save/reopen the result. Scenery artwork can be placed Far, Near, or On the floor and resized independently. The Prop Editor has a stickman-relative size guide and reversible size presets for authoring art at a useful scale. Missing artwork remains visible and repairable.
Recent reported editor issues were addressed during Phase 19 iteration, including scene loading, grid snapping/placement previews, starter-scene thumbnails, artwork cursor alignment, wall-panel erasing and tile rendering, and scenery size/depth controls. Treat those fixes as needing a focused regression pass on the next machine; the user has not completed overall Phase 19 testing. The selected-artwork depth inspector was the latest specifically approved piece.
Stage-wide Undo/Redo is deliberately out of scope and recorded as technical debt for a separate phase. No new scene save workflow was requested; the current ordinary scene and Prop save flows remain authoritative.
Start here
- Phase 19 product plan — child flow, feature scope, content manifest, acceptance criteria, and remaining user checks.
- Phase 19 architecture and implementation spec — runtime/file contracts, Stage-relative sizing amendment, implementation details, and verification expectations.
- Phase 19 UI/UX spec — child-facing interaction and reusable UI guidance.
- Selected Scenery artwork depth spec — Far/Near/On the floor inspector behavior.
- Stage panel UI system — shared in-stage inspector components and visual conventions.
- Technical debt log — includes deferred Stage Undo/Redo.
Verification entry point
Run the focused Phase 19 suite with Godot 4.7.1 from the repository root:
& "C:\Godot4\Godot_v4.7.1-stable_win64_console.exe" --headless --path . --script res://tests/test_phase19_scenery.gd
Also run affected compatibility suites when changing shared Stage, Prop, or asset-browser code: tests/test_phase10_prop_integration.gd, tests/test_phase17a_prop_roles.gd, tests/test_phase7_palette.gd, plus the relevant Prop Editor and scene-I/O tests. Headless success is not the final acceptance gate: open the Sandbox Stage in the GUI, exercise the plan's focused scenarios, and inspect the actual rendering. Keep Phase 19 marked in progress until the user's overall editor verification is complete.
Handoff hygiene
Commit the implementation, production .prop assets and .scene starters, specifications, handoff/plan/debt updates, test source and required .uid metadata, plus relevant regression-test updates. Do not include generated test captures/logs or tests/godot_test_user_data/ unless a later task explicitly promotes selected evidence into maintained documentation. Review the complete diff before staging; this working tree intentionally remains unstaged and uncommitted for that review.
