Anajak test notes

Every change to the game, newest day first, in plain words, with where to find it in the game and the task id and pull request (#number) or commit. Dates are the day the change landed on main, in Boy's time (UTC+7). Release candidates on the test server are listed under the day they were tagged; their full notes are in RELEASES.md. Where everything is today (maps, cities, NPCs, systems) is in GAME_GUIDE.md.

Every pull request adds its line here under today's date (CLAUDE.md, "Every change"). Headings, in this order: World and maps, Cities, NPCs and quests, Combat and skills, Items and economy, UI and controls, Art and look, Technical. A day lists only the headings it has.

2026-10-15

UI and controls

A cleaner play screen, like the classic PC client (T-227): no task panel on the screen (a new task is a System line and a short toast; the Quests window, F11, holds it), and the chat box stays docked at the bottom left; it only grows taller or shorter (drag its ⇕ grip). (t-227-classic-hud)
No skill bar over the play screen, like the classic PC client (T-229): the Q W E / A S D / Z X C keys still fire their skills; the bar shows only while the Martial Arts window (F5) is open, to set the keys. Phones keep their skill rings. (t-229-no-skill-bar)

Technical

New releases reach the test server by themselves: GitHub deploys every new rc-* tag to https://test.anajak.xyz within minutes, so Boy's Mac no longer has to be on (.github/workflows/deploy-test.yml; ops).

2026-10-14

UI and controls

The classic MMO key layout (#214): skills on Q W E / A S D / Z X C with 9 slots on the bar (was 4, keys 5–8), tonics and food on 1–8 (was 1–4), Space picks up loot (was Z; attack is a click or the attack button), F talks and uses (was E), V meditates (was R), M mounts (was T), Tab map (was M), B rankings, F5 martial arts (was K), F6 friends, F11 quests (was L). At sea W A S D still steer the dive and Space still throws the harpoon. Old characters keep their skill bar; the new slots start empty. Every key: Settings → Controls.

Art and look

Suvarna is a stone city now (#186), like the reference capital measured (about 54 % of its ground is stone paving, the rest gravel roads, kerbs and plaza stone, grass only as small tufts): square-stone paving everywhere inside the walls, the streets laid in laterite and sandstone setts between pale kerbs, lawns paved except in the Royal Gardens, and small painted grass tufts (our own art) along the kerbs and the wall feet. See any street in Suvarna (the market street by the West Gate).
The land maps take the reference client's time-of-day light (Boy, 2026-10-14): by day the art shows exactly as painted (no more cool tint over every map), morning and dusk a little dimmer, the night a light cool blue at 84–91 % (the reference's own night table, kept at 30 % so a town stays bright and alive at every hour; the old dark overlay took up to 48 % off). Caves keep their own darkness.
Natural ponds and lakes read as sunk into the ground now (T-89, #210, #217): a ragged grass lip hangs over the edge, below it a dark shaded bank runs down to the water (darkest under the far bank, which turns away from the light), with mossy stones at the waterline and lotus pads, reeds, laterite stones and fallen leaves along the shore. You walk right up to the grass lip and stop there. See the lake south of Suvarna in Granary Fields, any lake or deep river in the wild lands on grassy ground, and Suvarna's garden and ward ponds (the royal lotus pond, the market pond). Canals, the moat, the reservoir and the temple and palace pools keep their cut-stone banks.

Technical

The boot check (npm run check:boot) now tests the moving character-screen backdrop on every machine, also on Windows PCs with Animation effects switched off, where the browser asks for reduced motion (T-54).

2026-10-13

World and maps

Walls hold for riders too (#170): riding a mount (the elephant most of all) the animal's whole body now stops at a house wall, a stall or the water instead of pushing its head inside, and click-to-walk plans a route the mount fits through. Mounting (T) right against a wall steps you out into the open, or says there is no room. Buildings no longer vanish and pop back while you walk past them (the big halls, like the palace audience hall in Suvarna, did).

Cities

Suvarna's houses are real Khmer house types at the measured size (#186): small envelope-roof stilt houses, long gable houses and porch houses in thatch in the wards; tiled double-roof and terrace houses with pale walls and red-brown posts in the noble ward; two-storey street shops with open fronts in the market. Three variants of each, 10–16 m fronts. In game: walk the wards, the noble ward and the market in Suvarna. (t-186-suvarna-houses)
Bridge polish (T-84, #191): the bridge steps, balustrades and the stone under the decks are textured stone now: laterite risers and walls, sandstone treads and coping, weathered and damp at the water. The steps at the far end of a bridge show past its deck. Footbridges are 4 m wide between the railings wherever the canal banks allow, so an elephant fits across. Someone standing on a bridge stands by the railing. Lily pads and the water's ripples sit down on the sunken water. Cross any canal bridge in Suvarna on an elephant to check it.
Water lies below the street now (T-85, #193, #195): canals, brooks and ponds 1 m down, the moat, rivers and lakes 1.5 m down, between cut-stone banks with a kerb. Boats float down on the water, the bridges' arches reach down to it, and at every mooring and quay stone steps (ghats) lead down to a landing at the water. See any canal in Suvarna, or the steps down to the river on the port strip by the south gate.
Bridges are raised now (T-84, #191, #195): you climb steps at each end onto a deck 1.2 m up over a canal or a brook and 2.2 m up over the moat or a river, then walk back down; solid railings run along both sides, so you get on and off only at the ends. The moat bridges now reach across the whole moat. Walk over any canal bridge in Suvarna (for example on the south avenue) or the river bridges in Marakata. The Khmer bridge pictures (naga causeway, corbelled arch, small stone and timber bridges) come later; until then the old bridge pieces are raised, with plain stone steps.
Boy's decisions: Suvarna stays 600 m but gets bigger buildings, more temples, more props and horses (D12; #170). Other cities keep civic landmarks, not temples, for now (D9; #159).
Boy's decisions: no banners anywhere, including Suvarna (D6 changed), and Suvarna's market uses mats and palm-thatch shades instead of colourful awnings (D11). The banners come out of the city in Step 14 (docs/TASKS.md, docs/cities/SUVARNA.md; #170).
Suvarna gets a third reference board, the master target for Step 14: layout, street tiers, buildings by job, walls, bridges and plants. It comes with notes on what to change: the Bayon tower instead of a fountain, Khmer roofs instead of Thai, Khmer boats, no banners (docs/cities/SUVARNA.md; T-116).
TopV study notes in docs/cities/SUVARNA.md: measured layout patterns from the reference towns (how much ground is paved, built and green; open-square share; street widths; compounds and row blocks), building types by job, NPC numbers and spacing, colours and grounding, and how cities sit in their landscape, as targets for Step 14 (#170). Nothing changes in the game yet.
Draft city bibles for the five cities still to come, each marked "DRAFT: Boy's full brief pending": Kalara (Ancient Egypt, #173), Caerwen (Medieval Europe, #174), Marakata (Imperial Chinese, #175), Solara (Arab / Silk Road, #176) and Valdhem (Norse, #177), in docs/cities/ with Boy's boards. Each lists 30+ trades with their yards, 6 house variants, the aged palette, the kit and a pilot block, and ends with "Open points for Boy". The queue is the "Order" table in WORLD_CIVILIZATIONS.md. Nothing changes in the game yet.
The new Suvarna is live (#116, #180). The capital is the Khmer rebuild Boy approved on 2026-10-12: Palace and temple terraces on one axis, the Central Plaza with its market rows, a canal or pond with bridges in every district, the river port with moored boats, and 30 trade buildings with their own picture boards. Every NPC keeps its name, id and quests. Take the coach to Suvarna, or walk in from Granary Fields, Drumhill, Mulberry Fields or Plumrain Orchards.

NPCs and quests

Type /report <name> what happened (or /report what happened) in chat to send a report to the staff (T-80, #179). You get a report number in System chat, and the staff's reply arrives as System mail.

Items and economy

Every item now has a painted icon (T-80, #179): 207 items that only had a placeholder (the boss trophies, the five essences, Old Bronze Scrap, Ember Ash, the Jackal Pelt and more) got pictures in the same style as the rest. Open your bag after a named boss kill, or look at any boss trophy at a stall.

UI and controls

The camera sits further back, like the reference (T-226): on a PC the hero is about 6.8 % of the window's height (was 11 %), so a screen holds four to six buildings, a street and its people. The zoom slider still reaches the old close view. Phones unchanged. (t-226-jx-camera)
Esc (or a right click) with an item held in the bag now always puts it back in its slot: the floating copy of the item no longer stays on screen when the game is busy or the tab is in the background (bag, F4; T-41b, #196).
No more marker on the ground where you click to walk (Boy, #170): a click or tap still walks you there, with nothing drawn at the spot. Everywhere, on PC and phone.
The Map window (M) and the minimap look like a painted map (T-80, #183, #194). A city's map now shows the country round it, like the wild lands: the forest, jungle, fields, beach and sea of its region, a road out of every gate and its rivers running on, with only a little cloud at the far edges and corners (nothing inside the walls). Wild lands and caves get soft cloud round their edges and corners (caves a grey smoke), so no bare black, white or blue band shows at any zoom. Townsfolk are a small yellow dot with their name in yellow, every exit and portal a red dot with its name, and names are nudged apart so they never overlap (zoom in to see the ones that don't fit). The map's name and your X/Y sit at the top of the Map window, and Suvarna's terrace walls get a shadow at their foot so the high ground reads.

Art and look

Suvarna's art gets one colour grade (#186, review renders only, nothing changes in the game yet): weathered grey-green sandstone, red-brown laterite, orange-brown clay roof tiles, pale paving and deeper tropical greens, with a palette sheet for the kit (art-source/hd/midpoly/suvarna/grade/). Suvarna's building sprites no longer bake a long sun shadow behind each building; the game's own short shadow to the lower right is the only cast shadow (scripts/blender/render_suvarna.py).
Four Market Square props for the seller mats in Suvarna (#186, rendered, not packed until Boy's OK): a bronze balance on a wooden tripod, river fish on a banana leaf, a clay pot on three hearth stones with embers and a stack of rice baskets (city/khmer, ids scale_balance, fish_leaf_mat, hearth_three_stone, basket_stack).

Technical

Team rule: TopV is the project lead. It decides, approves, merges and releases, and it gives the other machines their work. Boy can still overrule anything (CLAUDE.md, "Team"; T-116).
Team rule: TopV now leads the whole Suvarna city (layout and art), and the other machines follow its study (CLAUDE.md, "Workers"; T-116).
Team rule: TopV (Boy's MSI laptop) is auto-approved and never waits for Boy's OK; Boy reviews its renders afterwards (CLAUDE.md, "Workers"; T-116).
The colour grade loses a desaturation line that never took effect, so the game looks exactly the same; Boy kept the current look (src/client/common.ts; #182).
Task board: Suvarna comes first. Aurelia (#160) is paused, and Boy's Mac, Mardy's PC and TopV all work on Suvarna: layout #170, map look #183, kit #185, Bayon tower #184, trees and colour #186 (docs/TASKS.md, "Current focus"; T-116).
City design rules for all seven cities (a central monument in every city, 8–12 building families from reusable parts, no accidental empty ground, NPCs visible from the game camera) and Suvarna's Step 14 target structure (docs/CITY_BUILD_RULES.md §10, docs/cities/SUVARNA.md, docs/cities/WORLD_CIVILIZATIONS.md; T-116).
The seven cities' internal map ids are now their real names everywhere (T-79, #171, #181): aurelia, suvarna, kalara, marakata, caerwen, solara and valdhem (they were tidetown, capital, palmshore, jadecross, ironvale, sunreach and frosthold), in the admin page, the game guide, the atlas, the world map, NPC ids, loading and map pictures. The save moves to version 14 and rewrites every stored id (the admin's per-map stats and heatmaps too), so every character wakes up on the same spot; the game version is 0.4.2 and an older page reloads for the new one.
Test-server admin: no password (Boy's choice). It opens straight to the dashboard through npm run admin:test; it is reachable only through the SSH tunnel whose key is on Boy's MacBook. Opt-in per server with ADMIN_TRUST_TUNNEL=1.
npm run admin:password no longer quits silently after the account name: it now asks for the password (hidden) and saves it.
Characters saved inside the old Suvarna land beside the same NPC in the new city (on the nearest spot they can walk from the spawn, else the spawn), with a note in the System chat (#116, #180). A server can fall back to the old city with SUVARNA_V2=0.
Admin site v3 (T-80, #179): a new staff site, dark by default with a light theme, with pictures for every item, hero portraits, NPC faces, creature pictures and city art. It opens on a login page: each staff member has an own password (the Owner sets the first with npm run admin:password on the server; staff get a one-time setup code), optional 2FA, a 15-minute lockout after 5 wrong tries, and roles (Owner, Game Master, Moderator, Viewer). Every action needs a reason and goes in the admin log. New: live dashboard and analytics (active players, retention, sessions, peak hours, levels, the newbie-guide funnel, heatmap, economy), automatic alerts (cheats, bots, multi-accounts, duplication, chat spam, gold farming), report tickets, chat logs, player timelines and per-player rollback, scheduled events (EXP boosts, boss events), server mail and compensation. Tables page on the server and export to CSV; it stays fast with 10,000 heroes. npm run admin opens the login; npm run admin:test for the test server.
The art ledger logs the 14 Higgsfield motion test jobs of 2026-10-13 (13 library clips at 8 credits, 104 in all, plus one refunded failure): tried for the missing hero moves and judged unusable, so none are in the game (T-86, #201).
npm run ledgers writes Boy's spending summary to "Anajak Online Projects/Ledgers" even when run from a worktree; before, it made a stray Ledgers folder inside the workspaces folder (scripts/ledger-summary.mjs; fix-ledger-path).

2026-10-12

NPCs and quests

Market Steward Meri (Suvarna plaza) now says there is no tax on sales, matching Boy's decision D10.
NPCs come alive like the reference (T-78, #168). Every townsperson breathes slowly and plays a trade gesture of its role (a weight shift, hands on hips, a beckon, a head scratch, a hand to the chin) every 6-10 s, each at its own time. Guards ground the spear beside the foot with the free hand on the hip; hands are shaped, never flat. NPCs still stay at their posts. Watch any city's plaza for half a minute.

Combat and skills

Heroes fight like the reference (T-78, #162). Out of a fight the weapon is worn on the back and both arms swing in the run. For 6 s after a blow the hero takes a fighting stance, weapon low in the fist. A blow is a short wind-up, then a strike held for a moment. The spear is thrust with both hands. The Qi wind-up goes crouch, T, V overhead, then the weapon upright before the chest. A struck hero no longer flinches. A knock-out is a quick fall onto the back, arms overhead. Try it on any training dummy or creature.

UI and controls

A "What's new" link under Start Game on the welcome screen opens the test notes page. Test server and dev only, never in the launcher or the phone app (#163).

Art and look

Riding like the reference (T-78, #166). The rider holds the weapon upright in hand on a mount, instead of on the back. At a gallop the rider leans forward and rises and sinks with the saddle, frame for frame with the horse. The mount at rest only swishes its tail. Press T on a mount in any city.
Hero hands and grips renewed for all four builds (T-78, #162). Empty hands are relaxed, never a claw. Every weapon and tool sits in a closed fist across the palm. The stand breathes once every 2.6 s, and the character window's doll holds the equipped weapon. Before/after sheets are in docs/motion-v2.

Technical

This changelog and the generated game guide, docs/CHANGELOG.md and docs/GAME_GUIDE.md (npm run docs:guide, checked by npm run check:docs and the bot test) (#163).
The test notes page, https://test.anajak.xyz/notes/, built with every deploy: New to test (the newest release with a tick-box "How to test it" list remembered on the phone), What changed (this changelog) and Where is everything (the guide, searchable) (#163).
Release on the test server: rc-2026-10-12-1 (the notes page, the changelog and the guide).

2026-10-11

World and maps

Lakes, rivers, ponds, canals and moats are one even jade with ripples, lily pads, lotus and glints; shallow streams can be waded across. Where: any wild land with a lake or river (T-64, #152).
Waterfalls drop off wooded hills at river sources and lake shores, with mist at the foot; fog over lakes and falls, cloud over high ground. Where: the wild lands (T-64, #152).

Cities

Plan, not in the game yet: one civilization per city with a 90–95 % main identity, and Suvarna's rules for foreign touches. Where: docs/cities/WORLD_CIVILIZATIONS.md (91c0cd9b).
Plan, not in the game yet: the Aurelia master bible (classical Roman) with Boy's three boards, queued after Suvarna step 13 (f45ae369).
Boy's rule: townsfolk may make short walks inside their own yard or stall (an exception to D7), Aurelia first (10e83914).

Items and economy

Player stalls open anywhere on land as a "Shop of <name>" window with a title, prices and Switch to vending; goods on sale wait on a shelf through closing the window, a knockout, logging out or a server restart. Where: bag (F4) → stall button (T-41b, #149).
No tax on trades or stall sales: the seller gets the full price. Boy confirmed it as decision D10 (T-41b, #149; f87aa57f).

UI and controls

The bag has a tool row: extended bag, sort, check equipment, split a stack (with an amount box) and stall. Where: bag (F4) (T-41b, #149).
Items move by click: click once to pick an item up, click a slot to put it down; Esc, right click or a click outside puts it back. Works in the bag, the Item Keeper's vault, the stall, equipment and the hotbar; on phones tap, then tap (T-41b, #149).
Skills and Social moved into the Character window. Where: F3 (T-41b, #149).
Clouds round the edges and over high ground on the minimap and the Map window, in the wild lands only (T-64, #152).

Art and look

A hero or creature behind a tree, wall, tower or building shows as a soft silhouette over it: your hero brightest, party green, other heroes pale, creatures warm grey-red; name tags stay on top. Where: everywhere (T-40, #151).

Technical

The welcome screen downloads the whole game (about 440 MB) before Start Game shows; nothing downloads during play; after a release only changed files download; a too-old version shows "Update required" (T-06, #155).
A 6 MB PC launcher that downloads the game to disk, updates it and plays from disk (macOS tested, not signed yet). Where: launcher/ (T-06, #156).
A phone app scaffold (Capacitor) with the whole game inside; TestFlight and Google Play steps in mobile/README.md (T-06, #157).
No freeze after entering the world: the minimap and Map window picture is drawn a little each frame (a city's is ready 2–4 s after arrival); map-change glitches fixed; 747 unused files (9.2 MB) removed (T-77, #153).
Releases on the test server: rc-2026-10-11-1 (T-06), rc-2026-10-11-2 (T-77), rc-2026-10-11-3 (T-40, T-41b, T-64).

2026-10-10

World and maps

No city sits next door to another any more: five new road lands. Mudcrab Flats (between The Saltpans and the Sugarpalm Coast), Redsand Scrub (Veal Khsach to the Sunscorch Desert), Bamboo Ridge (Mulberry Fields to Lanternwood), Ochre Hills (Granary Fields to the Brokenblade Canyons) and Longgrass Plain (Brokenblade Canyons to Marakata) (T-66, #138).
Cave side chambers: the Glowworm Grotto (Lv 50–58) through a low tunnel in the west wall of the Coilwater Deeps' first floor, and the Slag Pits (Lv 66–74) east off the Dragon's Furnace's first floor. Caves stay dead ends: back up the stair, or a Return Charm (T-73, #144).
The minimap and Map window inside caves show the cave's rock all round, with no black void or coloured edges (T-73, #144).

Cities

Suvarna step 13: Boy's polish rules before the rebuilt Suvarna may go live (docs only). Where: docs/cities/SUVARNA.md (#154).

NPCs and quests

Cave people with quests: Explorer Pei near the Coilwater Deeps' way out, Crystal Cutter Lan in the Glowworm Grotto, Ash Prospector Bao by the Dragon's Furnace stair up (T-73, #144).
Quest bosses inside the caves: the Glowworm Matriarch (Glowworm Grotto) and the Slag Tyrant (Slag Pits) rise at a random spot along their chamber's edge, unannounced; Lan's and Bao's last quests ask for them (T-73, #144).
Quest bosses (Tusk Lord in Lanternwood, Blackfin on the Sugarpalm Coast, Dune King in the Sunscorch Desert, Iron Tiger in the Greymoor Highlands) rise at a random edge spot, lie where they fell until they rise again (30 min to 12 h by quest), are never announced, and their timers survive a restart (T-71, #132).
Three underwater treasure quests: the Widow of the Sea's knife (in a shipwreck), the Harbor Captain's bell shards and the sunken envoy's jade seal (in an oyster). Where: Aurelia, the harbour and the pier (T-75, #137).
Clicking an Item Keeper opens the vault at once; keepers stand behind a storehouse counter. Where: every city's gate yards (T-25, #142).

Combat and skills

Skills belong to a weapon type (sword, spear, club). Three sects teach their own skills: Lotus Blade School (sword, Recruiter in Suvarna), Azure Spear Court (spear, Aurelia), Oakstaff Clan (club, Caerwen). Join from Lv 10 at the Recruiter, next to the School Transporter; leaving burns coins and starts a 7-day wait (T-74, #134).
The harpoon has its own skill, the Tide-Piercer Throw (keys 5–8, underwater only, pierces up to three fish), taught by the Harbor Captain on Aurelia's pier (T-75, #137).
Creatures show no level over their heads; the name turns red when the creature is 10+ levels above you, and a big level gap makes the weaker side miss a lot, both ways (T-22, #139).

Items and economy

Ancient diving: no tanks, fins or masks. You hold your breath (60 s at Diving Lv 1, longer as it rises); breath pills swallowed underwater add more: Kelp (Harbor Captain), Pearl and Dragon-Lung (the dive workshop). The Leviathan Pearl replaces the old mask; old tanks, fins and masks became breath pills (T-75, #137).
Drag an item from the bag onto the world to drop it at your feet; anyone can pick it up and it vanishes after 2 minutes. Valuable items ask first; bound and token-bought items never drop (T-76, #131).

UI and controls

PC controls: left click moves, talks and picks up; right click uses a skill; Ctrl + right click views a player; F2 settings, F3 character, F4 bag, F8 PK. Phones drag to move. Where: Settings → Controls lists them (T-30, #145).
The HUD bars, chat box, action bar and menu bar are laid out like the classic PC version's screen (T-36, #140).
The welcome screen has a new painting of our own and a smooth Start Game button (T-50, #141).
The server list shows signal bars and works with ↑ ↓ Enter Esc; the login is its own screen; the creator's heroes are sharper and turn in 16 views over a gently moving painting (T-54, #146).
Loading screens between maps: a patterned top band, the map's painting, and a bronze-framed bar with the map's name on a small sign and one tip (T-55, #150).
A small marker on the ground where you click or tap to walk (T-31, #135).
Level up: a short column of light and "Level N" over your hero, plus a System chat line (T-33, #136).
Hero names are 5–16 letters, digits, _ and ., unique however you write the capitals; the creator says at once what is wrong (T-53, #129).

Art and look

Rows of foam roll in to every beach (T-64, #143).
The last bought-pack pictures (old flat pets and three creature sheets) are gone; pets (Red Fox, Tree Frog, Squirrel Wizard, Dragonling) and creatures use our own 3D art (T-05, #133).

Technical

npm run check:licensed keeps bought-pack pictures out of the game; CREDITS.md removed (T-05, #133).
Boy's Mac deploys the newest rc-* tag to the test server every 30 minutes (02e67bb4); every worker tags a release after each merged task (63f1133f).
Boy is back: city and art approvals go to Boy again (9904d77d).
Releases on the test server: rc-2026-10-10-1 to rc-2026-10-10-5; release notes in full (#148).

2026-10-09

Items and economy

Gathering needs tools: an axe for trees, a pickaxe for rocks and ore (craft the first Stone Axe and Stone Pickaxe at the Forge). Caves hide Cave Jade, Ember Ruby and Starfall Stone for three new Forge weapons (Jade Sword, Starfall Spear, Ember Ruby Blade); they trade between players and never sell to a shop (T-72, #128).
Opening a chest shows a 0–100 % bar over it; a hit stops it and the next try starts from 0. Where: chests in the wild lands (T-70, #124).

UI and controls

Rankings: top level and top wealth, a daily snapshot. Where: the minimap "?" (T-39, #130).
One hero per account for new accounts; older accounts keep every hero they had (T-52, #127).

Technical

Admin page v2: dashboard (who is online, coins made and burned, alerts), give any item with a reason, log filters. The server refuses speed hacks, teleports and message floods and raises alerts (T-42, #126).
The test server's version.txt shows the deployed commit (1241bdcd).
Mardy's PC runs the work while Boy is on holiday, with defaults going ahead (92a97e02, 9d30ff21).
Release rc-2026-10-09 on the test server; its notes (#125).

2026-10-08

No changes on main.

2026-10-07

No changes on main.

2026-10-06

Cities

Each city gate has one guard, standing outside the gate in full view; nobody stands on the towers (T-18, #122).
Boy's decisions D6 (plain cloth banners in Suvarna) and D7 (NPCs stand still) (16d20805).
Suvarna is Khmer only, never Thai (THEMES.md §9), and the Suvarna master city build bible with Boy's two boards (ad563187, d34ee504).
Focus: cities and structures first; other work continues in parallel (f0352d5b, 3eb14fb7).

Combat and skills

PK has two states, No PK and PK (your name turns red). Switch with the PK button on the menu bar or F8. In PK you can attack anyone except your own party; safe zones and the level-20 rule stay (T-21, #119).

UI and controls

AFK: after a while without input other people fade away one by one (about 30 s), buildings stay, no dark overlay; move and everyone comes back (T-24, #121).

Art and look

The graphics quality bar (top-tier mid-poly: detail in textures, baked light and shade, AO, weathering) and the art target formula. Where: docs/ART_PLAN.md (af643689, c1b5060a).

Technical

Boy's decision D8: full download before play, updates only on the welcome screen (e887970a).
Workers (Mardy, TopV, Boy) claim issues by label; GPU render rule (a1daf527).

2026-10-05

Cities

Aurelia v3: the royal city on Mardy's layout, with a moat, four gates (a new south gate onto the harbour quay), eight districts and the Ancient Europe skin (#108).
Aurelia v4: Mardy's reference layout with the European building kit, eight-sided walls and terraces (T-60, #113).
Nothing you see can be walked into: buildings fit their lots, and solid props (sacks, jars, barrels, crates) have bodies (T-12, #106).
Barrels, crates and other props stay off the streets and no longer stick out over a roof; smithy anvils sit in the yards (T-20, #115).
Boy's decisions D1–D5: new city styles (Suvarna Khmer with temples, Aurelia Ancient Europe, Marakata Chinese, Kalara Egypt, Caerwen Medieval, Solara Silk Road, Valdhem Northern), weapon skills with sect quests, two-state PK with party protection, mid-poly art now, drop rules (887abbd6).

NPCs and quests

Every person in a city shows a name and has a body: townsfolk at work show what they do over their heads and can no longer be walked through (T-11, #105).
No golden ring under NPCs; the NPC you click gets one, on your screen only (T-17, #112).
The first-tool quest is no longer stuck: standing by the Blacksmith counts as being at the Forge, and a refused craft always says why (T-14, #109).

Items and economy

No auto-loot, ever: pick up by clicking, the Z key or the phone's loot button (T-15, #110).
Forage pickups (twigs, pebbles, shells) give 1 usually, 2 rarely, never more than 3 (T-16, #111).

UI and controls

The Character window (F3) shows the whole hero; bag items sit in their slots (T-13, #107).

Art and look

Creatures' legs move in step with their speed, so they no longer slide or run on the spot (T-19, #114).

Technical

Where to find the reference studies (e814d5b5).
Release rc-2026-10-05 on the test server (the new Aurelia, T-16, T-17).

2026-10-04

World and maps

The world atlas and the bestiary are in the game: new fields between the cities and the wild lands (Cypress Rise, The Saltpans, Redvine Slopes outside Aurelia; Mulberry Fields, Granary Fields, Drumhill and Plumrain Orchards outside Suvarna; Veal Khsach outside Kalara) and the second cave floors (Coilwater Deeps 2, Dragon's Furnace 2) (T-01, #100).
Two newbie fields: Sre Meas outside Kalara's east gate and Bracken Glen below Caerwen's south gate (starter cities, d954458f).

Cities

Three starter cities, Aurelia, Kalara and Caerwen: a new hero starts in the one with the fewest players, at a spread spawn spot, with its own newbie guide and free coach rides for newcomers (d954458f).

NPCs and quests

Named NPCs in every city, field and cave: role plus a personal name ("Smith Rith"), kids by their parents, talk lines with a reason, time and season lines, and "later" lines for quest givers above your level; Find NPC lists them (83221f84, 27e8c936).

Combat and skills

The bestiary: creature rosters by zone tier, map leaders, golden world bosses, elements and status blows on every wild map (T-01, #100).

UI and controls

New start: Start Game, a server list, one status line per connection step, character select, the creator (a hero turning on a stone pedestal, four builds, names 5–16 letters), a first-steps screen, and the Traveller's Bundle gift in every new hero's bag (358349d6).
One name over each hero: local chat no longer repeats it (T-10, #104).

Art and look

Four hero builds (Steady, Mighty, Tall, Nimble) on one rig each, 14 clips in 8 directions, all starting in plain hemp clothes (0e7719bf).

Technical

Phones stay inside their memory (fixes the iPhone white screen and the loop back to the welcome screen) (T-02, #101).
First download about 100 MB instead of the whole game; loading never sticks (T-03, #102). (Replaced by the full download on 2026-10-11.)
Play-test checklist, bug report template and release notes (T-04, #103).
The task board for play-test round 1, team rules for every Claude (CLAUDE.md) and art rules (bdb72257, 210222a2, c8ab497f).
Releases rc-2026-10-04 and rc-2026-10-04b on the test server.

2026-10-03

World and maps

Wild lands 3–6.5 times bigger (about 2 minutes to cross), nature placed the same on server and client, biome ground, caves and snow dressed, creatures in level bands (7b4ecf6d).
World map v3: a road graph with loops and two new gate links, Sunscorch Desert ↔ Greymoor Highlands and Brokenblade Canyons ↔ Coilwater Ruins; city emblems and search. Where: Map window (M) (8faecc08).
The Map & Travel window's map fills its pane, with the country round the map drawn in (Mardy, #5).
Plant seeds anywhere on open ground in the wild; Farmland and plots retired with refunds (75707193).
No glowing floor circle at gates: you walk out like in the classic game (faa9b16b).

Cities

All seven cities sized by walking time (Suvarna 2.1 min, Aurelia 1.9, the others 1.3–1.65) with districts, canals and parks; gates by geography (Aurelia N/W/E, Kalara no west gate, Solara north and south only); painted country past every city edge; townsfolk at their work (b5046681).
Aurelia moved onto the city system (Mardy's rebuild); no street lamps or guardian lions (4a9fdb27, f217464e).

NPCs and quests

NPCs are rigged 3D bodies that turn to whoever talks to them and gesture (70de6376).
Display names for places, roads, caves, creatures, rare bosses, trophies, quests and loading tips (NAMES.md) (8faecc08).
Shop and service windows opened from their NPC no longer close themselves (this blocked the newbie guide) (6203fcae).

Combat and skills

Martial arts: 8 skills with combos, Qi, buffs and debuffs, boss effects and one damage-number system (4c907e7b).
Creature AI: creatures keep their size, steer round rocks and trees, go home when led too far, wind up readably; bosses have patterns and enrage (4d900305).
PK v1: Peace, Fight and PK modes, protection by level and zone, PK value, Penance Pills, kill feed (62c87a3b). (Replaced by two states on 2026-10-06.)

Items and economy

Kill loot lies on the ground item by item, with a rarity glow and labels; the top damage dealer's party picks first; Z to pick up (46a56205).

UI and controls

Play-test fixes: auto-walk routes in cities, click-to-talk, camera framing, the knock-out box (lie down, party help-up), a shorter newbie guide, compact chat (90ad40f0).
Game feel: the hero sits 62 % down the screen, the PC run speed, stacked green EXP popups, the hidden-behind-roofs look, minimap v2 (zoom, dots by kind, gate flags) (8716aedf).
UI v2: the "You got a <item>" line, riders who stay mounted for NPCs, shops and travel, the character window with a live doll, bag v2, tooltips, the stall plaque, the two-step confirm and the coach dialog (720bd275).

Art and look

All 49 creature kinds (creatures, bosses, mounts, pets) animated in 3D in 8 directions (122da920).
Nature v2: 91 trees, bushes, plants, rocks, logs and ruins (20c009a0).
Item icons v2, painted in 3D (36689082).
Sound: music and ambience per map, sound effects for weapons, creatures, bosses, skills, UI and trade, with positional volume (366b3428).

Technical

A client boot check in a headless browser (check:boot) and steadier bot tests (88564b1f).
The master plan: vision, rules, status and roadmap. Where: docs/MASTER_PLAN.md (3f105f09).

2026-10-02

World and maps

Every map revealed on the Map window (unvisited maps drawn from their data) (29af79e4).
Warps, coach and gate arrivals land on the nearest free spot, never inside a wall (54ad3ff9).

Cities

The seven cities rebuilt in the true isometric view with 3D walls, gates, bridges and courtyard compounds; Kalara on the measured port template; a gate yard (Coachman, Item Keeper, guards) in every city (80caccf7, 394f7ff8, 48dfc67d, 11e87ac0).
Aurelia rebuilt after the walled port in Mardy's reference picture (Mardy, #4).
Aurelia (then Tide Town) made bigger and walled, harbour inside the walls (54ad3ff9).
City names: Aurelia, Kalara, Marakata, Caerwen, Solara, Valdhem (4b6776de).

NPCs and quests

161 new quests: a city line for each of the seven cities, wild-land chains and side quests; one Gate Sergeant per city keeps a quest (4b6776de).
The Coachman offers the cities and their fares as plain choices (4b6776de).
Neutral NPC roles: Garden Keeper, Bell Keeper, Lore Scholar, Lantern Keeper (no religious titles) (ee4b13d5).

Combat and skills

Rare creature bosses, one for each creature kind (97d8fd73).
The long level curve (Lv 80 in about 4 years), quest EXP as a share of the level, the level-gap rule; boss health shown as a percentage (147e5afa, b412aea1).

UI and controls

The camera: a plain click walks; look around with Ctrl + drag, two fingers or the minimap (29af79e4).
Chat in its own window with All, Local, World, Party, Private and System tabs (29af79e4).
Windows draggable by their title bar; the jade HUD rebuilt like the PC reference; no pop-ups (messages go to System chat) (9d43f935, 147e5afa).
Leaving the game outside a city keeps the hero in the world for 20 s; a knockout wakes you in the last city (147e5afa).

Art and look

The game moved to a true 2:1 isometric view with one size table for everything (c5112222, 8cac5b98).
Low-poly 3D heroes and a new character creation screen (Mardy, #2); the hero holds the equipped weapon and stands calmly (02f34adc, 7728e0fd).
Low-poly city kits, NPC bodies, creatures, mounts, pets, the sea set, item and UI icons, the logo, title screen and 18 loading screens (51f58da3, 38ec49e9, 1c93645f, bdf97a36).

Technical

The first commit on main: the 2.5D MMORPG baseline (jade PC windows, the 3D-rendered hero pipeline, the capital at reference scale, story quests) (653d4862).
Admin: set a player's level and release them from jail (Mardy, #3).

1. Cities

Seven walled cities, all safe (no fighting). Aurelia, Kalara and Caerwen are starter cities: a new hero starts in the one with the fewest players. Every city has a gate yard with a Coachman (coach rides to the other six cities; the fare is burned; free between the starter cities and the capital until Lv 15), an Item Keeper (one shared vault, from Lv 10) and a gate guard outside each open gate. In cities you can click a far spot and the hero walks there.

4. Systems

PK (player fights)

Two states: No PK and PK (your name turns red). Switch with the PK button on the menu bar or F8 (wait 10 s between switches).
In PK mode you can attack any player outside the safe lands except your own party. Nobody under Lv 20 can fight or be attacked.
Knocking out a No PK player raises your PK value (+1, more for repeat or much weaker victims). At 6 your name stays red; at 10 PK mode is forced off.
PK value drops by 1 every 3 h online, or with a Penance Pill brewed by a city Constable (100 + 5 × level coins, 2 a day).
No PvP in the cities or in Lanternwood and Sugarpalm Coast.

Sects and weapon skills

Skills come from the weapon you hold: sword, spear or club (and the harpoon underwater). Put up to 4 on the bar (keys Q, W, E, A, S, D, Z, X, C); right click uses the selected one.
Join a sect from Lv 10 at its Recruiter (3 joining quests). One sect at a time; leaving burns 500 + 50 × level coins and starts a 7-day wait.

Harbor Captain Ren (Aurelia), Drill Instructor Jun (Aurelia), Sword Instructor Kai (Suvarna), Arena Master Tao (Suvarna)

Gathering and crafting

Twigs, pebbles, berry bushes, palms, shells and driftwood: pick up by hand. Trees need an axe; rocks and veins a pickaxe (gold, iron, diamond veins and cave crystal need power 2: an Iron Pickaxe). Craft the first Stone Axe and Stone Pickaxe at a Forge.
Craft at a city Forge (smithing), Tailor (tailoring), Kitchen (cooking) or the Harbor Captain's dive workshop (diving). Fees are burned.
Cave finds (Cave Jade, Ember Ruby, Starfall Stone) come only from cave rocks, never sell to a shop, and make the Jade Sword, Starfall Spear and Ember Ruby Blade.
Plant seeds on open ground anywhere in the wild (no farmland). A ripe crop withers if nobody picks it in time.

Chests

A chest appears on each wild map 15–35 min after the last one and vanishes after 20 min unopened.
Stand still by it: a 0–100 % bar fills in 3 s. A hit or a step stops it, and the next try starts from 0.
Tiers: Wooden Chest, Silver Chest, Golden Chest. Admins can drop one from the admin page.

Bosses

Golden world bosses (strict clock, announced): Frost Yeti Chieftain in Frostfang Pass at 01:00, 07:00, 13:00, 19:00 UTC (08:00, 14:00, 20:00, 02:00 at UTC+7), stays up to 2 h; Serpent Queen in Coilwater Ruins at 02:20, 08:20, 14:20, 20:20 UTC (09:20, 15:20, 21:20, 03:20 at UTC+7), stays up to 2 h; Shadow Demon Dragon in Coilwater Deeps 2 at 03:40, 09:40, 15:40, 21:40 UTC (10:40, 16:40, 22:40, 04:40 at UTC+7), stays up to 2 h; Ancient Serpent Dragon in Dragon's Furnace 2 at 05:00, 11:00, 17:00, 23:00 UTC (12:00, 18:00, 00:00, 06:00 at UTC+7), stays up to 2 h.

Rare creature bosses: 34 kinds, each 4–5 times a game month (28 days) at a random time in its kind's area, golden aura, gone after 1 h. Nearby players feel the ground shake (System chat). Each drops its trophy. Listed under each map above.
Map leaders ("X King" mini-bosses) live on every wild map and cave floor; listed under each map above.

Diving

From Aurelia's pier (the Dive Point by the Harbor Captain). You hold your breath: 60 s at Diving Lv 1, +4 s a level.
Breath pills swallowed underwater add more (at most +240 s a dive): Kelp Breath Pill +30 s, Pearl Breath Pill +60 s, Dragon-Lung Pill +120 s. The Leviathan Pearl in your bag gives +120 s on every dive.
The harpoon has its own skill underwater (Tide-Piercer Throw). Three treasure quests find items in wrecks and oysters.

Stalls and trade

Open a stall from the bag (anywhere on land): a title (up to 24 letters), a price per item, up to 30 listings; "Switch to vending" keeps it open while you are away. Goods wait on the shelf through logouts and restarts.
Direct trade face to face from Lv 10. No tax on trades or stall sales (Boy's decision D10).

Vault (Item Keeper)

Click any Item Keeper (every city gate yard) to open the vault at once. All keepers open the same vault. From Lv 10; 2 free pages of 24 slots, more for Gems (up to 10).

Rankings

Top 20 by level and by wealth (coins + bank), a snapshot taken once a day. Open it from the minimap "?".

Return Charm

Sold by every General Store (30 coins) and found in chests. Use it, wait 3 s without being hit, and you are back in the last city you passed through. Not within 15 s of a player fight. The only quick way out of a cave.

Mounts and pets

Press T to ride. Mounts add speed and never break; after a hit you wait 5 s before mounting again. Riders stay mounted when they talk to NPCs, shop or travel.

Mount or pet	Speed	Where to get it
Mountain Pony	+30 %	Royal Stable, 2,000 coins, Lv 10+
War Horse	+55 %	Royal Stable, 8,000 coins + 5 Gems, Lv 25+

Squirrel Wizard	pet (follows you)	chests (Golden Chest)
Dragonling	pet (follows you)	dropped by Serpent Queen, Shadow Demon Dragon
Spirit Tiger	+120 %	dropped by Ancient Serpent Dragon

Death, knockout and respawn

No EXP loss. Knocked out in the wild you lie where you fell: Return to town (after 20 s) or wait for a party member to help you up; after 60 s you go back on your own to the last city you passed through.
Half of each raw-goods stack you carry drops where you fell; you may pick it back up first.
Closing the game outside a city leaves your hero in the world for 20 s.

AFK

After 10 min with no input, everyone else fades from your screen one by one (about 30 s); buildings stay. Move and everyone comes back.

Loot on the ground

Kill drops lie on the ground item by item. The top damage dealer's party picks first (30 s, 60 s for a boss), then anyone; items vanish after 2 min (3 min for a boss).
Pick up with a click or Z (no auto-loot). Drag an item from the bag onto the world to drop it (anyone can take it; gone after 2 min). Bound and token items never drop.

7. Admin tools

The admin site runs on the server's admin port (local only, through an SSH tunnel) and needs a staff login: a password each person sets (the Owner with npm run admin:password on the server; staff with a one-time setup code) and optional 2FA. Every action needs a reason and is logged with the staff name. npm run admin opens the login page; for the test server: npm run admin:test.
