Add D-023 through D-029 context (content architecture, NPC generation, social sites, simulation tiers, vertical slice, dialogue, population ratios) to all 18 agent briefings. Core workshop participants get detailed action items; specialist/infrastructure agents get relevant implications. Mellanie activated from standby for content authoring.

# Tyre - Project Briefing
|
|
Last updated: 2026-02-10
|
|
|
|
## Current Project State
|
|
The Settled Reach: top-down immersive sim, single-character perspective, asymmetric information core mechanic, Rimworld-style storyteller. 29 confirmed decisions, 17 discussion rounds complete. Engine selected (D-020: Godot + Rust/bevy_ecs subprocess). Vertical slice defined (D-027).
|
|
|
|
## Decisions Relevant to Your Role
|
|
- D-008: Z-levels, LOD, procedural generation - technical architecture implications
|
|
- D-010: Four architectural principles - client-server, deterministic sim, information boundaries, input events
|
|
- D-011: LOS shadowcasting implementation for fog of war
|
|
- D-012: Chunk-based map architecture for streaming and generation
|
|
- D-014: v0.1 map specification - full technical requirements
|
|
- D-015: Camera lock to character - vision cone rendering and binaural audio hookup
|
|
- D-017: Perception as observer queries - technical pattern for all perception modes
|
|
- D-018: Sound propagation system - three-range model with wall occlusion
|
|
- D-019: Top-down primary view with potential future 3D client
|
|
- D-020: Godot 4 client + Rust/bevy_ecs server via subprocess/IPC, MessagePack serialization
|
|
- D-021: Official title "The Settled Reach"
|
|
|
|
### Round 17 Decisions (Technical Architecture)
|
|
- **D-024: CombatCapability as ECS component** - Optional component triggered by combat-trained skill tag. Pattern applies to all optional systems. Follows D-017 perception mode model (capabilities as components, not monolithic state).
|
|
- **D-025: Single-ownership template model with reference links** - NPCs owned by one template, referenced by others. Reference links carry relationship metadata. Prevents lifecycle conflicts.
|
|
- **D-026: Simulation tier budgets confirmed** - Your numbers: Active (30-80 NPCs, 10-20 tps), Background (500-2K NPCs, state machines 1/game-min, 4 machines each), State-saved (~1-2KB serialized structs), Ungenerated (doesn't exist). Timestamp-based LRU eviction. bevy_ecs dynamic components for tier transitions.
|
|
- **D-027: Vertical slice systems** - Access tier system + cargo/goods system needed for smuggling ring mechanics. Two characters = ~20% more effort, no new architecture (client-server already supports multi-observer).
|
|
- **D-028: Line previewer CLI** - Weekend build. Authoring tool and regression test harness. Takes template YAML → NPC instances → trait modifiers → outputs generated line pools with metadata.
|
|
|
|
## Open Questions Assigned to You
|
|
- Q-001: Engine selection (LEAD, CRITICAL - next priority)
|
|
- Q-002: v0.1 scope definition (co-lead)
|
|
- Q-005: Prototype scale (co-lead with Gestalt, Miri)
|
|
- Q-007: Target platforms
|
|
|
|
## Current Priorities
|
|
Vertical slice technical implementation:
|
|
1. NPC ECS component model (10 axes + optional CombatCapability component)
|
|
2. Template instantiation system (single-ownership + reference links with metadata)
|
|
3. Simulation tier transitions (timestamp LRU + scope tags + bevy_ecs component add/remove)
|
|
4. Access tier system (content filtering by tier 0-3)
|
|
5. Basic cargo/goods system (for smuggling ring mechanics)
|
|
6. Line previewer CLI (weekend build — YAML templates → trait-modified line pools)
|
|
|
|
**Future flag:** Base builder DLC requires data model stub now: `modifications: Vec<Modification>` on relevant entities. Add to schema early.
