apply_move no longer writes Facing (was the only movement-facing coupling,
player-only); the player's view changes solely via explicit SetFacing.
NPC path-follow now sets Facing to the step direction — a strict improvement
recorded as a D-252 correction: NPCs previously never received Facing from
movement, their cones sat at spawn direction while walking. Bump-to-turn
retired (blocked moves change nothing) with a regression test for each
semantic. Wire schema unchanged; player_facing docs now say view/aim.
Gauntlet fixtures regenerated (facing octants now reflect view-only
semantics); client replay + live-roundtrip suites green against the new
server.

Add live server lifecycle to tests/run-visual (start/stop server per
scenario, parse LISTENING:{port}). Add MessagePack snapshot replay to
visual_capture.gd via Protocol.decode_snapshot() — exercises the full
client pipeline from wire bytes to rendered fog. Three replay scenarios
(hub_spawn, fog_theater, hub_after_movement) plus one live scenario
(fog_live_hub). Add gen_gauntlet_fixtures.rs to produce .msgpack fixtures
from the Gauntlet test world. Add max_diff_pct threshold to visual-diff.
Makefile: add fixtures-gauntlet target, fix build-client double-import,
preserve .godot cache in clean.
