Enemy mothership (#53) A large, slow capital enemy that periodically launches chasers and artillery on their own intervals and fires a heavily telegraphed line beam capable of killing several player vessels at once. Spawning reuses #52's EnemySpawnerComponent as-is via two preset scenes (EnemySpawnerComponentChaser.tscn: 5s/chaser, EnemySpawnerComponentArtillery.tscn: 18s/max 2/artillery) rather than adding multi-type support to the component - two instances of a single-purpose component is the composition this codebase already uses everywhere ("enemy bomber" in the original request is read here as the existing artillery enemy's slow telegraphed AOE, not a new enemy type - flagged as a judgment call in the ticket). New EnemyBigLaserComponent.gd ("big_laser") fires a standalone EnemyBigLaserBeam on a long cooldown - the beam owns its whole charge/ fire/flash sequence once launched, so the mothership dying mid-charge doesn't cancel an already-telegraphed shot, same design as EnemyArtilleryComponent/ArtilleryShell. The aim direction is locked once in launch() and never re-read - nothing in the charging phase touches the fleet's position again, which is what makes it dodgeable. Damage is a line-segment check (projection + perpendicular distance) against every player_ships member; Ship.take_damage() already handles shield absorption per-ship. MothershipEnemyDefinition.tres: max_hp 60, speed 35 (slow), a ~96-unit hull, pursuit + two spawners + big_laser, no type switch anywhere - every stat from the definition, every behaviour from a component. Tests: new tests/test_enemy_mothership.gd, split into beam mechanics (tested directly, not through the component's own cooldown timing, which would make the geometry assertions timing-fragile) and the composed definition (tested through a real Enemy.tscn instance). Screenshot of the charge telegraph mid-countdown. Full suite: 80/80. Found and fixed a real bug along the way, in EnemySpawnerComponent.gd (#52): its `enemy_scene: PackedScene = preload("res://Enemy.tscn")` member-level preload could get permanently baked in as a broken, empty PackedScene when a definition's component_scenes chain led back to Enemy.tscn while it was still mid-load - confirmed empirically via ResourceLoader.has_cached() being true (a good copy existed) while the preloaded reference's own resource_path was empty. This only surfaces when a SINGLE definition composes two instances of a script carrying such a preload (the mothership's chaser/artillery spawner presets; #52's single-spawner turret never hit it). Fixed by resolving enemy_scene lazily via load() on first use instead of at compile time, and additionally made a fresh spawner count down from a full interval before its first spawn rather than firing on tick one, which also happens to keep two sibling spawners with different intervals from ever landing their first attempt on the same frame. 🤖 Generated with Claude Code Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

#84: move 215 root files into a folder hierarchy Everything lived in one flat directory, so a diff gave no clue what area it touched and finding the file you wanted meant knowing its exact name. Twelve folders now, grouped by what a thing IS rather than what type it is - a vessel's definition, its component scenes and its upgrade resources sit together, because that is the set you read when you change one of them. buildings core controllers enemies logistics planets resources shaders surface ui vessels vfx world 332 files moved and every res:// reference rewritten - 306 files touched, including the autoload and main-scene paths in project.godot. Nothing renamed: this is purely where files sit, so the diff is a pile of pure moves and no behaviour is buried in it. ui_theme.tres, icon.svg and web_shell.html stay at the root, where Godot and the export preset expect them. Verified three ways, because a suite alone would not have caught all of it: the full 117 pass, the web export builds clean, and the game renders. The export is why that matters. The FIRST export after the move failed with "Attempt to open script 'res://GameState.gd'" - the old path - while project.godot on disk plainly said res://core/GameState.gd. That is this project's documented Android FUSE mtime trap: Godot served a cached copy of a file whose content had changed. A `touch` fixed it. Nothing in the test suite would have found that, because the suite runs from a copy on a native filesystem - the one place the bug cannot happen. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Implement #85, #86, #87 and #88 #85 - on a computer the sticks and the pivot pair are dead weight: WASD steers, the mouse aims, Q/E pivot. All four go together the first time a keyboard or a mouse is used, and only where there is no touchscreen. A touch device with a keyboard attached keeps everything, because a finger is still a way to play it. #86 - the default gun shoots faster (500 -> 850) and further (320 -> 620). The interesting half is that a bolt now STOPS where the gun's range ends. Projectile lifetime is derived from fire_range at launch rather than set independently, so the distance a shot covers and the distance the aim guide draws are one number. They were two, and they disagreed: the guide promised 320 while a bolt actually flew speed * lifetime = 750, so shots landed on things well past the line saying where they would stop. #87 - the ship that fires throws sparks, so a shot is visibly attached to the vessel it came from; with a whole fleet shooting there was nothing tying the two together, which started mattering once the player had to aim. Enemy deaths gained a shockwave ring and roughly double the debris - a kill used to read as a small red puff that was easy to miss in a fight. #88 - everything moves 1.5x faster: fleet cruise, every vessel's max_speed and acceleration, and every enemy's. Scaling the enemies too keeps it a change of TEMPO rather than a difficulty cut, and scaling acceleration alongside speed keeps the handling from #77's tuning intact. Three tests carried assertions that were really about one balance pass: test_enemy_mothership pinned a literal 35.0 and now compares against the chaser, which is what "never reaches ramming speed" actually means; test_planet_atmosphere_transition flew far enough at the new speed to reach the landed garrison, and now clears it, since that test is about the handoff and not about a fight it never meant to pick. Also repaired real data loss, caught only because test_gas_burner failed: Godot had silently re-serialised GasBurnerBuildingDefinition.tres and dropped collected_outputs, capabilities, map_radius and map_phase, and had recreated a stale copy of it at the pre-#84 root path. Without collected_outputs no transporter ever collects a burner's energy. Both files restored from git. It had also resurrected pre-#84 SNAPSHOTS of Main.tscn, Planet.tscn and lunar_surface.gdshader at their old root paths - the root Main.tscn still carried 27 references to the flat layout. They are dead weight the engine never loads, since project.godot and every preload point into the folders, but they are exactly the kind of thing that wastes an hour later when someone edits the wrong copy. Deleted, and the root is now down to ui_theme.tres, icon.svg, web_shell.html and the two config files. Suite 119/119. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Stacking distorders, menu layouts, lab rewards, enemy detail, artillery cross DISTORDER STACKING. Each space-time distorder vessel past the first raises the fleet's speed ceiling by 1.0, so a second one is worth crewing instead of being dead weight. GameState gains max_fleet_speed_multiplier, pushed by Fleet whenever composition changes - the same direction as every other fleet-derived figure, since GameState does not reach into the scene tree to count ships. The energy drain is normalised against the CURRENT ceiling, so full boost costs the same per second however wide it is: extra vessels buy more speed, not cheaper speed. Losing one re-clamps an over-ceiling boost rather than leaving the fleet travelling faster than its crew can sustain. TRANSFER MENU. Rows overlapped, and the last one ran into the hint text. row_height is divided from the available space, but each row's contents used a fixed pixel ladder - glyph at +10, buttons at +88, selector at +142 - which needs about 244px. Three resources fit; the fourth cut rows to 180 and every one spilled 64px into the next. Every offset is now a fraction of the row, so it cannot overflow. Also dropped the per-row AMOUNT caption (four copies of a word the footer hint already explains) and moved each glyph and name to the TOP of its row, where they read as its heading rather than the next row's. HANGAR. Six vessel types in one row gave each about 100px for a 155px label, so the names ran together. Now a 3x2 grid per section, sized from the space between the first heading and the status line, using the empty lower half. LAB RESEARCH REWARD. A harder enemy lab is worth more research points, and how hard a lab is depends on the layout authored for it - how many capture points, how many defenders - which the planet TYPE cannot know. PlanetSetup carries research_point_reward, set in the map editor, overriding the planet type's flat rate. 0 means "no opinion", so every map authored before this keeps its old value. RESEARCH LAB BACKGROUND. Its own shader instead of the crater field with a red tint, which read as "rocky planet, tinted" rather than someone's facility: plated floor, seams, service conduits, lit junctions. Loop-free by construction (#68's lesson applied up front) - conduits stay continuous across cells by keying a horizontal run to cell.y and a vertical to cell.x, so neighbouring cells agree without any cell scanning its neighbours. ENEMY DETAIL. Every enemy was a single flat outline, which left the artillery and the turret spawner as the same octagon at two sizes - the silhouette carried no information about what the thing did. EnemyDefinition gains detail_lines and detail_rings as DATA, so adding an enemy still means adding a definition rather than editing Enemy.gd, and the four non-default hulls are redrawn: a long-barrelled sniper, a squat mortar, a hive with launch bays, a capital ship with spine and ribs. Three things drew an enemy from its definition - the enemy, the map editor's markers, and the palette buttons - each reimplementing it from hull_points alone, so the new detail appeared in the game and nowhere else and an editor marker stopped matching what it placed. They now share EnemyDefinitions.draw_definition(). ARTILLERY. The 1.8s charge-up before the tower fired arrived long before the threat was legible and mostly read as the tower being stuck. It fires immediately now; the warning is the shell you can see in the air plus a small cross on the ground at the impact point. Deliberately not a blast-radius ring - a large translucent area was easy to read as the explosion having already happened, where the cross says "move off this spot". MAIN MENU. No Quit in any build (a web build has nothing to quit to, and Android's back gesture already does it), a plain black background, and the game is "Spaceship" - in the title and in config/name, which is what drives the browser tab for the web export. change_scene_to_file() returns an error and otherwise fails silently, leaving the menu up, which is indistinguishable from an unpressed button; it is now checked and reported on screen.

#101 (#97c): waves attack buildings Every enemy component used to ask the same question - which player SHIP is nearest - so a structure was scenery they flew straight through. A Building is also a plain Node2D, so there was nothing to collide with even if one had tried. EnemyTargets answers the question once, for pursuit, standoff, the lancer's lunge and the ranged weapon together, so they cannot drift into disagreeing about it. It keeps one thumb on the scale: a vessel inside 520px always wins, even against a nearer building, or the fleet could not defend anything by interposing itself and an enemy would fly past the ships shooting it. Buildings get a hitbox - an Area2D in a group, the same shape as a Ship or an asteroid, so EnemyProjectile needed one extra branch rather than a new concept. It applies damage on a tick rather than on area_entered: entry fires once, which is right for a rammer that dies on the first strike, but would let a sniper that drifted inside sit there scratch-free for ever. On a tick, an enemy parked on a structure is besieging it. What one strike costs is data on the enemy definition, for the same reason dies_on_contact is - a lancer arriving at 950px/s is not a sniper drifting into a wall. Also clears the asteroids in test_enemy_projectile_damage. set_process(false) only stops NEW asteroids; the ones already placed keep drifting, and one wandering into the shield vessel parked at (2000, 0) spent its single charge so the projectile fired next killed it. That failed about one parallel suite run in thirty and never in isolation. Clearing them is what the other combat tests already do. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
