Remove stale v0.1 references (detective/smuggler gameplay, hand-authored content pipeline, named NPCs) and align with v0.2 reality: generator-first (D-122), LLM voice pipeline (D-138), composable behaviors (D-139), tycoon bookmark deferred. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Dudley - Project Briefing
|
|
Last updated: 2026-03-13
|
|
|
|
## Current Project State
|
|
The Settled Reach: top-down immersive sim, single-character perspective, asymmetric information core mechanic, Rimworld-style storyteller. 137+ confirmed decisions. Where's the Fun? Workshop complete (2026-03-05) — 24 decisions locked. v0.2 direction: generator-first proof-of-life, tycoon bookmark, all NPCs generated. Sprint 25 generator spike confirmed as critical path.
|
|
|
|
## Status
|
|
STANDBY. This briefing will be populated when backend/engine implementation begins. Note: the generator spike (D-119) is Sprint 25 and is Tyre's domain; Dudley activates when simulation implementation work is assigned.
|
|
|
|
## Key Decisions for Your Domain
|
|
Read `decisions/architecture.md` (primary) and `decisions/content.md` (NPC model). Key decisions:
|
|
- **D-010:** Four architectural principles (client-server, info boundaries, deterministic sim, input events)
|
|
- **D-020:** Rust simulation server with bevy_ecs, MessagePack protocol to Godot client
|
|
- **D-024:** NPC ECS model (10 axes + CombatCapability component) — survives in v0.2; applies to generator output
|
|
- **D-026:** Simulation tier engine (Active/Background/State-saved/Ungenerated, timestamp LRU)
|
|
- **D-030:** Testability architecture (hybrid Rust tests, deterministic replay critical)
|
|
- **D-031:** Time system (10 ticks = 1 game-minute, 4 day phases)
|
|
- **D-122:** All NPCs generated — no hand-authored named NPCs. The NpcBlueprint struct (Tyre) is the ECS entry point.
|
|
- **D-129:** Traits + behavior first; relationships Sims + Rimworld style. Codify for systems.
|
|
|
|
## Development Workflow
|
|
See `docs/DEVOPS.md` for full procedures. Your key targets:
|
|
- `make setup` — verify Rust toolchain (clippy + rustfmt)
|
|
- `make build-server` — `cargo build` in `server/`
|
|
- `make server` — `cargo run` in `server/`
|
|
- `make test-server` — `cargo test` in `server/`
|
|
- `make lint-server` — clippy (deny warnings) + rustfmt check
|
|
- `make ci-server` — full server CI pipeline (lint → build → test)
|
|
- Server code lives in `server/` — unit tests inline with `#[cfg(test)]`, integration tests in `server/tests/`
|
|
- Cross-boundary IPC fixtures in `tests/`
|
|
|
|
### Key Workshop Decisions (relevant to server implementation)
|
|
- **D-035: Converged tag taxonomy (6+3)** — dialogue selection pipeline: access (hard filter) → situation (context filter) → trust (hard filter) → mood+topic (weighted selection). Server implements pipeline.
|
|
- **D-038: Audio architecture** — event-driven: SoundEventEmitter → ObserverSnapshot → SoundRenderer. Server emits sound events.
|
|
- **D-041: Knowledge Graph Data Model** — Per-entity `KnowledgeGraph` Component with BTreeMap storage (deterministic). 4-level confidence hierarchy (Suspects/KnowsOf/KnowsDetails/Direct). StableEntityId + EntityRegistry for stable entity references. Event-driven updates via KnowledgeEventQueue. Canonical Rust structs at `docs/workshops/knowledge-graph-information-boundaries/round2-synthesis.md` Part 3.
|
|
- **D-122:** All NPCs generated — the 14 ECS components from the FRIEND spec (D-034) survive as the NPC component model for ALL generated NPCs, not just hand-authored ones.
