NOT Ready — Blocked or Needs Design First
| # | Title | Team | Blocked by | When Ready |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| #618 | CK3-style character creation screen | client | #614 (bookmark definition) | Sprint 29 (after #614 ships) |
| #680 | Location picker in character creation UI | client | #679 (culture resolution) | Sprint 29 (after #679 ships) |
| #681 | Apartment generator logic | server | #615 (starting state) + #679 (culture resolution) | Sprint 29 (after both ship) |
| #682 | Apartment rendering + first-moment sequence | client | #681 (generator logic) | Sprint 29+ |
| #621 | NPC personality surface area | server | #679 (culture resolution) | Sprint 29 (after #679 ships). CRITICAL priority. |
| #622 | Relationship formation system | server | #621 (NPC personality surface) | Sprint 29+ |
| #626 | Setting delivery — both layers | planning | Q-WTF-041 unresolved (span gate feeling) | Design pass needed first |
Tickets Marked as Split (do not assign)
| # | Title | Split into |
|---|---|---|
| #617 | Auto-generated apartment | #681 (server: generator) + #682 (client: rendering + first moment) |
| #620 | Culture-implicit-in-location system | #679 (server) + #680 (client). Original deleted. |
Q-WTF-041 Note for #626
Ticket #626 (Setting delivery — both layers) references Q-WTF-041: "what should the player feel looking at the span gate from their apartment?" This question is unresolved. Before #626 can be split and implemented, the design spec for the visual + insert layers must be authored. Recommend a planning ticket for the design pass in Sprint 28, separate from implementation.
Critical Path
NPC legibility chain: #679 → #621 → #622 NPC personality surface area (#621) is CRITICAL priority. Get #679 (culture resolution) into Sprint 28 so #621 is unblocked for Sprint 29.
First Settled Reach moment: #615 + #679 → #681 → #682 The apartment moment (D-136) depends on both the tycoon starting state spec and culture resolution shipping first. Apartment rendering (#682) is the client-side emotional delivery — sprint-pair with #681.
Character creation chain: #614 → #618 Bookmark definition gates the creation screen UI.
