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.

The fleet's guns picked their own targets and fired on their own, so combat
happened whether or not the player did anything - there was nothing to aim and
nothing to decide, and the right half of the screen held nothing at all.
Firing is now an action. VesselWeaponComponent no longer seeks a target; it
shoots along a heading, and the only thing that supplies one is the new
right-hand stick via FireStickController. A fleet arriving from another scene
starts with its guns silent, which is the correct resting state.
A subtle dashed guide runs from the fleet along the aimed heading while the
stick is held, out to the guns' OWN range - read from a weapon that is
actually aboard, so the line can never promise reach the fleet does not have.
Layout: the two sticks take the bottom corners, the pivot pair is centred
between them at the bottom edge, and the laser and gas bomb sit on an arc up
and left of the fire stick where a thumb already is. Those four are now round
- IconButton grew a round_frame mode, and the in-world action controls use it
while panel and menu buttons stay square, so the two kinds of button read as
different kinds of thing.
Worth recording, because it cost a screenshot to find: a script-declared
property set BEFORE the `script = ExtResource(...)` line in a .tscn is
silently dropped. Godot's parser has no idea the property exists yet. The
round frames were all correctly set in both scenes and none of them applied.
Also fixed researtch_lab_garrison.tres, which was authored under the void
profile - that is the black hole surface, so a lab garrison was spawning on
black holes.
Suite 110/110. test_enemy_combat's whole premise was auto-fire; it now holds
the real stick toward the enemy rather than poking weapon components, so it
exercises the path the player uses. test_fire_stick is new and covers the
change itself: an idle stick leaves a target parked well inside range
untouched, which is precisely what the old gun would never have done.
