The District and Quarter rungs rendered as flat colour, and the cause was not the biome work everyone assumed. Measured on Ferrath through the production canvas builder: at District the mean |elev_q delta| between neighbouring gridunits is 0.02, and NOT ONE PAIR in a 1290x540 frame differs by 2. elev_q spans 0-100 across the body's whole 8 km elevation range, so ONE STEP IS 80 METRES. A District canvas covers 2,048 m of ground, where the rolling relief a walker navigates by is metres to tens of metres -- a fraction of a single step. The sub-district detail IS generated (invent_primitives' scatter and relief bands compute it) and then rounded away. Confirmed by running the diagnostic with the octave cutoff disabled: still 0.02. relief_q carries that same invented fine component against a scale chosen to resolve it: 0-100 about a flat 50, RELIEF_FULL_SCALE_M = 400 m either side, so 8 m per step -- ten times finer than elev_q. elev_q keeps its body-absolute meaning and the Atlas legend stays true. Measured effect, elev_q vs relief_q (distinct values / mean 4-cell delta): Region 49 / 2.38 -> 101 / 21.86 District 10 / 0.08 -> 35 / 0.35 Quarter 8 / 0.02 -> 19 / 0.06 FIXED metre scale, never per-canvas normalization: the value for a piece of ground must not depend on what else is in frame, or the same hillside changes tone as the viewer pans. And it excludes elev_pct deliberately -- this is the departure from the surrounding land, not height above sea level; including the base would re-introduce the body-scale dominance that makes elev_q unusable down here. 50 at the orbital rungs, which skip invent_primitives by design. Nothing is lost: Global and Region still have varied elev_q (101 and 49 distinct values), and the client takes whichever field carries signal via a max, with no rung-name branching. The client's ruggedness driver changes with it. It was an elev_q GRADIENT, which cannot work across rungs -- the same 4-cell delta reads 21.86 at Region and 0.08 at District, so any single full-scale constant either saturates one or vanishes on the other. relief_q states relief outright, so |relief_q - 50| is the answer directly and a fixed metre scale is immune to that by construction. An absent plane reads FLAT, not zero -- 0 on this field means maximum relief BELOW flat, so a payload without it would have stippled the entire map. That is reachable: the field is #[serde(default)] so old-shape payloads decode. Two colorize tests whose fixtures predate the plane caught it. 2004 server tests, 1838 client tests, 0 failed. clippy clean. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

RE-SCOPE REQUIRED BEFORE ANY CHILD STARTS (2026-07-27, D-258 amendment). The structural rationale for this epic was disproven on evidence the day after it was written. D-258 claimed hydrology ''was not derivable at all'' per-window; in fact layer1.rs::run_layer1_with_moisture already solves drainage AND settled-equilibrium hydrology once per body, folds the filled surface into TerrainAnalysis, and every rung bilinearly samples it -- the code''s own comment calls it ''a coarse continuous primitive computed once, sampled fresh at every rung, never re-solved'' (mechanism B, D-255(f)). Compute-once-sample-everywhere already exists. What actually made Global look flat was serve_step_canvas_request zeroing Global''s wire extent (a pre-extent-inversion sentinel), producing a 2x1 canvas -- fixed 2026-07-27; once sized correctly Global reads as a world with no hydrology work at all. Rivers at Global were measured as negligible: 375 courses present, 458 of 518,400 pixels different vs courses-off, because at ~39.7 km/gridunit most courses are shorter than one gridunit. SURVIVES: biome un-summarisation (reliefmap as plurality), composition-on-descent, the conservation invariant, and the lake-shore amendment. WEAKENED: the stored expanded layer and its D-227 carve-out. The live question is no longer ''what does rung 0.5 cost'' but ''does biome un-summarisation need a stored layer at all, or does it ride the existing sample-fresh-at-every-rung mechanism''. Re-scope this epic and T-1212 against that question first.

|

RE-SCOPED 2026-08-06 (Jeroen''s call) — the epic is unblocked, and its question has changed again.
|
|
|
|
EVIDENCE. A descent ladder was captured on Ferrath (GJ820Bc) at native 3440x1440,
|
|
anchored on land, one shot per rung, no overlays (scenarios atlas_GJ820Bc_land_*
|
|
in tests/visual.json). Ferrath''s heightmap is 1024x512 over a 38,089 km
|
|
circumference = 37.2 km per source pixel. Against that:
|
|
|
|
Global 35.267 km/gridunit ~1:1 with the source pixel a real map
|
|
Region 0.379 km/gridunit 98x finer flat wash
|
|
District 0.0038 km/gridunit 9,800x finer flat wash
|
|
Quarter/Block/Chunk finer still flat
|
|
|
|
The Atlas is legible exactly where it SAMPLES the heightmap and flat everywhere
|
|
it must INVENT. Every rung below Global is a single uniform colour field with
|
|
dither noise; the courses/settlements readout is 0 at all of them.
|
|
|
|
WHAT THIS SETTLES. D-258''s amendment (5) framed the live question as "does biome
|
|
un-summarisation need a stored layer at all, or does it ride the existing
|
|
sample-fresh-at-every-rung mechanism". The ladder answers a PRIOR question:
|
|
un-summarisation is not happening in ANY form. There is no expansion to decide
|
|
the storage policy for. Storage is therefore a downstream optimisation, not the
|
|
decision this epic turns on.
|
|
|
|
NEW SCOPE. Build the expansion first as a PURE FUNCTION, following the mechanism
|
|
that already exists rather than inventing a second one: layer1.rs''s
|
|
compute-once-sample-everywhere primitive (D-255(f) mechanism B) is the model, and
|
|
the amendment established hydrology already works that way. Measure it. Add a
|
|
stored layer ONLY if the measured cost forces it — and if it does, that is when
|
|
the D-227 carve-out argument gets made, on numbers rather than on the disproven
|
|
"not locally computable" claim.
|
|
|
|
Order: T-1213 (the un-summarisation generator) is now the first child and is
|
|
UNBLOCKED. T-1214 (hydrology onto rung 0.5) stays parked — the amendment showed
|
|
that solve already runs once per body and does not need to move. T-1216 (Global
|
|
biome-from-orbit palette) and T-1217 (lake shores through the shared shore path)
|
|
survive unchanged; both were independent of the storage question.

Measure, at minimum: (1) per-body derive cost for the expanded layer at a resolution sized so a whole body draws at 2 screen px per gridunit on a large display (the D-258 sizing rule) -- both single-body cold-derive time and the full ~271-body population sum; (2) per-body and total disk footprint if the layer is cached/stored (rung 0.5 is a named D-227 carve-out -- storage is deliberate, but its size must be known, not assumed); (3) whole-body hydrology solve cost on this layer (drainage + course routing + lake fill) at the same resolution, since D-258 requires this to run exactly once per body and nowhere else. Reference point: D-255''s own rung-0 always-keep tier estimate went from ~8.85 MB (measured against a stale ~18K-cell/body figure) to an estimated 226 MB (1080p) / ~900 MB (4K) once the extent inversion made Global viewport-sized -- D-255 amendment item 6 explicitly says ''re-measure against rung 0.5, not against this record.'' This ticket is that re-measurement. Report back to the team before T-1211''s other children are started; if the numbers are structurally bad (e.g. rung 0.5 at the sizing D-258 specifies costs an order of magnitude more than the old rung-0 model), that is grounds to revisit the resolution target with Jeroen before writing generator code. See governance/decisions/architecture.md#d-258 (rationale + Implementation note).

SCOPE INVALIDATED 2026-07-27 (see T-1211 and the D-258 amendment). This ticket was written to measure the cost of moving a whole-body hydrology solve onto rung 0.5. That solve does not need to move -- it already runs once per body in layer1.rs and is sampled fresh at every rung. Do NOT run this measurement as written; it would price work that is not required. If a measurement is still wanted after T-1211 is re-scoped, the question is narrower: what does BIOME un-summarisation cost, and does it need storing at all.

|
---
|
|
RETIRED AS A GATE 2026-08-06. This no longer blocks T-1213 or the T-1211 epic.
|
|
|
|
It was already SCOPE INVALIDATED (2026-07-27) for pricing a hydrology move that
|
|
does not need to happen. The 2026-08-06 descent ladder (see T-1211) closes the
|
|
remaining reason to keep it as a gate: every rung below Global renders a flat
|
|
wash, so biome un-summarisation is not happening at all. There is no artefact
|
|
whose cost or disk footprint can be measured, because none is produced.
|
|
|
|
The measurement question survives, but it is now DOWNSTREAM of T-1213 rather
|
|
than upstream of it: once the un-summarisation exists as a pure function, measure
|
|
THAT, and only then decide whether a stored layer is warranted. Re-scope this

INSERT INTO tickets (record_id, type, parent_record_id, title, description, status, priority, assigned_to, team, decision_ref, created_at, updated_at, deleted_at, hash, canonical_version) VALUES ('06FT0TZC9MJV6KZTSRVRYQ327M', 'story', '06FT0TX2W0BA10PRR7NMJ2362M', 'Rung-0.5 expanded-layer generator (deterministic un-summarisation of rung 0)', 'Build the deterministic expansion from rung 0 (heightmap.png 1024x512 16-bit elevation + reliefmap.png 1024x512 colour biome) to rung 0.5, sized per D-258''s 2-px-per-gridunit-at-large-display rule. Same body + same seed must produce the same layer every time (byte-identical, per D-227''s determinism discipline extended by this carve-out). The reliefmap is a PLURALITY, not ground truth: each reliefmap cell already voted-and-discarded the dominant biome across ~38 km of ground, so this generator un-summarises it -- it does not upscale/interpolate it. Three binding invariants from D-258: (1) biome edges are gradients, never lines -- transitions blend so no boundary falls on a rung-0 cell edge (the D-243 climate edge-fuzz rule applied to biome); (2) descending the ladder reveals COMPOSITION not sharpness -- a cell reading ''forest'' globally must be able to contain clearings/marsh/rock/scrub the vote suppressed, emerging deterministically as the ladder descends; (3) CONSERVATIVE invention is the binding acceptance gate -- downsampling rung 0.5 must reproduce the rung-0 summary it came from (a forest cell may gain marsh pockets but must still read as forest from orbit). Blocked on T-1212 (cost/size measurement) landing first. Depends on: nothing else in this epic to start scaffolding, but hydrology (sibling ticket) and this generator are tightly coupled -- coordinate sequencing with whoever picks up hydrology. See governance/decisions/architecture.md#d-258.

UNBLOCKED 2026-08-06 (T-1211 re-scope, Jeroen''s call). The T-1212 blocker edge is
|
|
removed: that measurement priced a hydrology move that is not happening, and the
|
|
descent ladder showed there is no expansion artefact to measure yet anyway.

BUILD IT AS A PURE FUNCTION FIRST, not as a stored layer. The stored-layer half of
|
|
D-258 was materially weakened by its own 2026-07-27 amendment (the "not locally
|
|
computable" argument for the D-227 carve-out does not hold, because the whole-body
|
|
solve it cited already runs once per body in layer1.rs and is sampled at every
|
|
rung). So follow the mechanism that exists — D-255(f) mechanism B,
|
|
compute-once-sample-everywhere — measure it, and only argue for storage on those
|
|
numbers. Do NOT open with a cache.
|
|
|
|
WHAT "FLAT" MEANS CONCRETELY, so the fix has a target. Ferrath''s heightmap is
|
|
1024x512 over a 38,089 km circumference: 37.2 km per source pixel. Global draws at
|
|
35.267 km/gridunit, roughly 1:1 with the source, and reads as a real map. Region
|
|
draws at 0.379 km/gridunit — 98x finer than any stored datum — and is a single
|
|
uniform colour with dither. District is 0.0038 km/gridunit, ~9,800x finer, also
|
|
uniform. So the acceptance bar is not subtle: at Region, ~98 gridunits across a
|
|
single source pixel must carry visible, deterministic, non-repeating composition
|
|
that still downsamples back to that pixel''s summary (D-258''s conservation
|
|
invariant, the binding gate).

|
|
|
VERIFY BY CAPTURE, NOT BY REASONING. The scenarios exist: atlas_GJ820Bc_land_*
|
|
(Region/District/Quarter/Block/Chunk, one land-anchored world point, no overlays)
|
|
in tests/visual.json. Captures run offscreen under gamescope at native 3440x1440
|
|
via tests/run-visual --screenshot <name> — they do not steal the desktop. Re-shoot
|
|
the ladder and look at it; a green unit test proves nothing here.
|
|
|
|
Note the ladder currently also reports courses=0 at every rung below Global —
|
|
rivers vanish on descent. That is tracked separately as T-1239 and is NOT this
|
|
ticket''s scope, but it will be visible in the same captures, so do not mistake it

Design questions to settle at pickup: (a) stipple dots inline in the existing per-cell loop (cheap, same O(wxh) pass) vs a second overlay pass (simpler code, doubles pixel-touch cost); (b) density from vegetation class directly vs a combination with elev_q — relief hachures and forest texture are two different visual grammars in the RimWorld reference, not one slider; (c) own legend toggle (TMP/MST/VEG overlay-bar pattern) vs always-on like the elevation lightness modifier.

MIN_WL_BANDS_M (layer_proxy.rs) is built from 2*DISTRICT_M (4,096 m) and 2*QUARTER_M (1,024 m) -- Nyquist for a sample spacing equal to the rung''s CELL SIZE. That was correct while a rung fixed SPACING; after D-255''s extent inversion a rung fixes EXTENT and District''s spacing is 2048/540 = 3.8 m, so its true Nyquist floor is ~7.6 m. The bands are off by roughly the canvas cell count (~540x). This is the same class of defect as the Global 2x1 wire-extent sentinel the D-258 amendment documents: a constant that was correct under the pre-inversion model and silently outlived it. The code even states the consequence as though intended -- district_profile.rs''s comment reads ''At District''s real Nyquist floor (4,096 m) every VOXEL_OCTAVE_WAVELENGTHS_M entry is truncated, so relief is always exactly 0.0 there''. IMPORTANT SCOPE NOTE, verified before filing: this is currently INERT for the step canvas. step_canvas_viewer._fire_request() calls request_now(body, rung, center, extent) with no min_wl_m, so it defaults to 0, and quantize_min_wl_m(0) returns 0 (the leading sentinel band) -- no truncation happens on the served path. It therefore only affects the legacy layer_proxy district-window consumer. It is NOT the cause of the flat District/Quarter rungs; that is elev_q''s 80 m quantisation (0-100 across MAX_REGION_ELEVATION_KM = 8.0 km), measured at d1 mean 0.02 with the cutoff already disabled. Fix: derive the cutoff from the resolved canvas spacing rather than the rung cell size.
