_finish_pivot_tap() granted a full PIVOT_MIN_STEP rotation on every
button/key release with no rate limit, so tapping fast enough rotated
the formation far beyond PIVOT_SPEED's smooth held-rate cap - well
above what holding the button down can ever produce. Each of those
artificially-frequent re-seats (Fleet.apply_formation()) forced every
ship into a fresh max-speed catch-up dash toward its new slot with no
time to settle between dashes, and since outer-wedge ships swing
further per pivot than inner ones, spamming made them visibly diverge
in speed while each ship's own bounded max_speed made the fleet read
as constantly pinned at its speed ceiling.
Added a per-direction cooldown (the time a genuine hold needs to reach
PIVOT_MIN_STEP on its own) so tap-spam can't out-pace holding the
button. Deliberately NOT shared between CW/CCW: a quick correction tap
the other way right after an overshoot is normal play, and
test_keyboard_input.gd already covers Q and E each independently
producing their own minimum step back-to-back - only repeatedly
re-tapping the SAME direction needed capping.
A fleet of neon-outlined ships explores a procedurally generated, seeded
infinite world: tap/joystick steering, pinch zoom, formation pivoting,
planet landings, an ore economy with extractors and haulers, and player
built structures (mothership, ship crafter, command centre).
All art is hand-drawn with draw_* calls rather than textures, and the
backgrounds are camera-relative shaders so they stay precise at large
world coordinates.
Includes a 35-test headless suite (tests/run_tests.sh) plus screenshot
tooling that renders real frames through Xvfb and Mesa softpipe, since
--headless has no GPU.
Excluded from version control: .godot/ (import cache, and it holds
export credentials), builds/, android/build/ and packaged APKs - all
regenerable, and ~325 MB combined.
