The atlas 'regional' screen now opens the LADDER at the canonical orbital
frame (Region granularity, whole body fitted and centered) and wheel zoom
descends continuously — cursor-anchored, unclamped across rungs, with
progressive refinement (held composite keeps drawing, finer rung swaps in
place on arrival; no blank frame, no mode flip). Full-zoom-out resets to
the canonical planetary frame per Jeroen's HARD condition
(is_fully_zoomed_out = extent >= body circumference, not a zoom-value
heuristic). The district_screen nav hop is deleted — D-013 restored:
descent is a zoom gesture, not a nav push. AtlasViewer's heightmap-texture
path is unreachable from nav (code intact; overlay surface deferred, see
report/tickets).
Rung selection: design doc §5's literal formula has NO legal District band
at any real viewport (visual-tolerance band and n=64 coverage ceiling
never overlap — pinned by executable boundary tests at 1600x900);
select_rung() splits it into a coverage ceiling (decides Region) then the
2x visual tolerance (District vs Quarter), documented at the function.
In practice the ladder steps Region -> Quarter directly.
Wire: window_granularity_v2 encoded (omitted at District for byte-compat),
granularity_v2 echoed value keyed + staleness-guarded end to end; Region
clamp mirror replicates the server's bounded halving loop (no closed
form). MIN/MAX_ZOOM widened to [0.0005, 64] — the old 0.5 floor would
have clamped a real body's canonical fit zoom, violating the reset
condition.
Real pre-existing bug fixed in atlas_window_overlay.gd: the draw path used
echoed n as both cell-grid dimension and district extent — only
coincidentally correct at District granularity; Quarter/Region would have
read wrong array offsets. cell_grid_side_for_window() now mirrors the
server's WindowGranularity::cell_grid_side.
Tests: +26 pure-function geometry tests, new 30-test zoom-ladder suite,
extensions across the window cache/request/overlay/delivery suites.
Full suite 3518 green; cold-parse clean.
