#866: Fix _escape_bbcode in dialogue_box.gd — only escape '[', not ']'. Chaining .replace(']', '[rb]') after .replace('[', '[lb]') corrupted the [lb] escape itself. Updated test_dialogue_sprint18.gd accordingly. #869: Migrate test_anti_tedium + test_bug_report_ring_buffer to instantiate BugReportDialog via .tscn (BugReportDialogScene.instantiate()) instead of bare Control.new() + set_script(). Sprint 36 moved bug_report_dialog.gd to extends MetaScreen; the old load path was an orphan .uid file returning null. #870: Delete 8 parse-error test files (test_debug_overlay_sprint19, test_entanglement_sprint22, test_fog_sprint22, test_journal_sprint18, test_minimap_sprint18, test_session_manager_sprint19, test_sprint30, test_sprite_integration) + .uid sidecars. Coverage tickets filed for fog/journal/minimap (#879, #880, #881). Sprint docs updated with #882 note. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Sprint 37: Sweep — Client Tasks
|
||
|
||
**Goal:** Spring-clean accumulated debt: asset pipeline discipline, PROTOCOL_VERSION removal, D-167/D-032 dead-code purge, New Game regression fix, copy wiki residue, bookmark save-state, and generator quality patches.
|
||
|
||
**Branch:** `sprint-37/client`
|
||
**Agents:** Stig (dev), Hoshe (QA)
|
||
|

||
## Key Decisions
|
||
|
||
- `decisions/architecture.md` — D-192 (drop PROTOCOL_VERSION lockstep handshake), D-005 (IPC protocol)
|
||
|
||
## Notes
|
||
|
||
**#872 — New Game flow hangs on 'connecting' (motivating regression)**
|
||
- Manual repro during Sprint 36 PR #134 smoke test: main menu → New Game → loading screen shows 'connecting' and never progresses.
|
||
- Likely suspects:
|
||
1. `client/ui/meta/screens/main_menu/main_menu.gd` — `_process()` polls `SimBridge.poll_snapshot()` while `_waiting_for_catalog` is true. If `bookmark_catalog` never arrives (or arrives but the flag isn't cleared), the loop runs forever.
|
||
2. `client/ui/meta/screens/loading/loading_screen.gd` — opaque BG + `MOUSE_FILTER_STOP` means a never-dismissed loading state looks identical to 'hung connecting'.
|
||
3. `client/scripts/protocol/protocol.gd` — `bookmark_catalog` decode landed in v23 (commit 41e89579). Verify server is actually sending `bookmark_catalog` in the first snapshot after connect.
|
||
4. Option A scene handoff race — confirm `main_menu → character_creation` triggers on a signal, not a polled flag.
|
||
- Suggested investigation order: add trace prints in `main_menu._process` to confirm `SimBridge.state` and `GameState.bookmark_catalog` contents during the hang. That will disambiguate suspects 1 vs 3 in minutes.
|
||
|
||
**#873 — Scene-level merge-path UI flow tests (gdUnit4)**
|
||
- Add gdUnit4 scene-level tests for merge-path UI flows so regressions like #872 are caught pre-merge instead of post-merge.
|
||
- Scope — one test per flow:
|
||
- main menu → new game → character creation → confirm → connected state
|
||
- main menu → load game → save picker → selected
|
||
- character creation → submit → `sim_bridge` receives correct payload
|
||
- bookmark tab → select location → confirm → server gets bookmark action
|
||
- Tests must run headless via `tests/run-godot`. Pattern: load scene → simulate input via `_input()` or `button.pressed.emit()` → await signals or poll state with timeout → assert terminal state.
|
||
- NOT pixel/screenshot diffing. NOT RPA/xdotool. NOT CI integration (existing `make test-client` already covers this).
|
||
- Reference pattern: `test_character_creation_sprint28.gd`.
|
||
- These tests are the mechanism the `pr-review` merge-path gate (added Sprint 36 retro) assumes exists.
|
||
|
||
**#866 — _escape_bbcode chained replace corruption**
|
||
- `dialogue_box.gd:628` chains `.replace('[', '[lb]').replace(']', '[rb]')`. The second replace turns `[lb]` into `[lb[rb]`, corrupting the escape. BBCode injection guard is effectively broken for server-sourced text.
|
||
- Fix: escape only `[` (not `]`), since unmatched `]` in RichTextLabel renders as literal.
|
||
- Test: `test_escape_bbcode_brackets_in_server_text` in `test_dialogue_sprint18.gd` (currently skipped) — unskip and make it pass.
|
||
|
||
**#869 — MetaScreen test helper regression (7 fails)**
|
||
- Sprint 36 migrated `bug_report_dialog.gd` from `extends Control` to `extends MetaScreen`. `test_anti_tedium.gd:94` builds the dialog via `Control.new() + set_script(BugReportDialogScript)`, which no longer satisfies the MetaScreen base contract.
|
||
- Every call to `dialog.start_capture()` fails with `Nonexistent function in base Control`. 7 failing tests in the anti_tedium suite.
|
||
- Fix: instantiate the `.tscn` (preserves the MetaScreen runtime stack) instead of building from script, OR have the test instantiate a MetaScreen-rooted node.
|
||
|
||
**#870 — Delete or revive 8 parse-error test files**
|
||
- These 8 files fail to parse (not just fail tests), contributing to gdUnit error counts: `test_debug_overlay_sprint19.gd`, `test_entanglement_sprint22.gd`, `test_fog_sprint22.gd`, `test_journal_sprint18.gd`, `test_minimap_sprint18.gd`, `test_session_manager_sprint19.gd`, `test_sprint30.gd`, `test_sprite_integration.gd`.
|
||
- They reference removed/renamed APIs from prior sprints.
|
||
- Default: delete. File a fresh ticket if/when the underlying coverage is needed again. If any file is worth reviving, rewrite it against the current API.
|
||
|
||
**#875 — Drop PROTOCOL_VERSION on client (D-192)**
|
||
- Blocked by server ticket #874 — merge server PR first.
|
||
- Remove: `version` field read in `client/scripts/protocol/protocol.gd` (`Protocol.decode_snapshot`), the `PROTOCOL_VERSION` constant, and the version-mismatch guard.
|
||
- Update any fixture-replay paths that read `version`.
|
||
- Keep all field-presence and roundtrip behavioral tests.
|
||
|
||
**#882 — Strip archetype-driven client code (follow-up to server #878)**
|
||
- Added 2026-04-21. Blocked by server #878 (removes `character_archetype` from StartupMessage; rides #874's PROTOCOL_VERSION break).
|
||
- Per lead direction: the CharacterArchetype trace is Phase 6 filler, not production. Keep character-creation UI and insert screens; strip everything else.
|
||
- Strip: `character_archetype` field in `game_state.gd` (line 100), `lattice_profile` derivation (line 47); `session_manager.gd` `save_character_archetype()`, `_read_archetype_file()`, character.txt save/load (lines 58, 172–192); `protocol.gd` `character_archetype` on StartupMessage; `sim_bridge.gd` archetype wire-up; any monologue color-palette code keyed on `lattice_augmented`/`lattice_baseline`; audit `tests/client/test_signal_sprint24.gd`.
|
||
- Verify: client launches, character creation UI loads, insert screens render, session starts. Grep `character_archetype`, `lattice_profile`, `smuggler`, `detective` in `client/` — only character-creation UI references remain.
|
||
- Context: server-side audit at `docs/architecture/sprint-37-878-audit.md` (on server branch until #878 merges).
|
||
|
||
## Dependency Chain
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
#874 (server) → #875 (client PROTOCOL_VERSION drop)
|
||
#878 (server) → #882 (client archetype strip)
|
||
#872 (New Game regression fix) → #873 (merge-path tests add coverage for this flow)
|
||
#866, #869, #870 → standalone, parallel
|
||
```
