 Implementation note (Tyre, T-1124 report): DISTRICT_WINDOW_MIN_ZOOM proposed at 6.0 but atlas_viewer.gd caps _view_zoom at MAX_ZOOM = 8.0 — only a 6.0-8.0 band for the whole in-window-zoom detail story the SS5 legibility argument depends on. Tunable client constant, not wire contract: either lower the swap threshold or raise MAX_ZOOM; decide with on-screen-scale math at implementation.
 
 SUPERSEDED ENTRY MECHANIC (Jeroen, 2026-07-21 companion hands-on — recorded as the D-226 T-1124 SS5 entry revision): NO zoom-threshold LOD swap and NO DISTRICT_WINDOW_MIN_ZOOM — the earlier zoom-headroom note is moot. The planetary heightmap view becomes FIXED: remove drag-pan/wheel-zoom of the planetary canvas IN THIS TICKET, same change as the replacement (never strand close inspection), and update the header hint text accordingly. Entry: hovering the planetary heightmap shows a rectangle cursor representing the regional-mode bounds; click descends into the regional map centered on the click point''s derived DistrictPos (float-on-center rules carry over with pan-center read as click-point). In-mode behavior unchanged (pan-only refetch, 150ms debounce, D-227 cache, border-fade). Morph transition between modes explicitly deferred — the descent may cut. Open design point: the rectangle cursor is an affordance, not to scale (n=64 = ~131km = a few px on a planetary canvas) — resolve the honest representation (true-extent rectangle + zoom-in cut, or not-to-scale reticle with the real extent labeled) without implying more coverage than real. Note: set_view/get_view_offset (T-1120 capture API) must survive for the visual-golden harness even after user pan/zoom is removed.', 'done', 'high', NULL, 'client', NULL, '2026-07-18 10:02:12.668', '2026-07-21 12:03:40.355', NULL, 'fa260128491e3d8fae6b3cb991b9afe6', 2) ON CONFLICT(record_id) DO UPDATE SET type=excluded.type, parent_record_id=excluded.parent_record_id, title=excluded.title, description=excluded.description, status=excluded.status, priority=excluded.priority, assigned_to=excluded.assigned_to, team=excluded.team, decision_ref=excluded.decision_ref, updated_at=excluded.updated_at, deleted_at=excluded.deleted_at, hash=excluded.hash, canonical_version=excluded.canonical_version WHERE excluded.updated_at > tickets.updated_at OR (excluded.updated_at = tickets.updated_at AND excluded.hash > tickets.hash);

Root cause: _update_hover sets _hover_active unconditionally and neither the reticle guard nor the descend fall-through checks that the cursor is on the heightmap texture — the 2:1 map letterboxed in a wide viewport leaves dead zones where the reticle promises descent and the click derives beyond the planet edge (clamped sampling = the uniform green he saw). Second defect: atlas_window_viewer.enter() resets zoom 1.0 / offset ZERO with no fit — an n=32 composite renders 512px native in a ~1900px viewport (postage stamp, not a filled map). Fixes: (1) client bounds gate — reticle hidden and descent inert unless screen_to_canvas(pos) is inside [0,tex_w)x[0,tex_h); (2) fit-and-center on enter + first window arrival + resize (zoom = ~0.9 x viewport/composite clamped to MIN/MAX_ZOOM, offset centers); (3) district header gains the body proper name (cheap half of T-1141 pulled forward — pass the body dict into enter); (4) SERVER: validate window_center like window_n — wrap columns modulo the body circumference, clamp rows to +/-rows_half (never trust the wire; today an out-of-range center derives clamped garbage and caches it); (5) live full-chain verification this time — the T-1138 live check requested a known-good pos directly over the wire, bypassing the click chain entirely, which is exactly where this hid.
