#219: fleet capacity is a built, supplied thing rather than a researched
one. The eight fleet-size doctrines are gone; capacity is one berth free
plus one per Fleet Office standing. An office charges every 25s for the
vessel in its berth, priced off that vessel's own build cost so an expensive
hull is expensive to keep, and drawn from its own store the way a gas burner
draws gas. An office that cannot pay goes dark, its vessel is scuttled, and
the player is told through the same queue quest lines use - which reaches
them on a planet surface too.
An empty berth is idle rather than starved: an office is only failing while
there is something in it to fail, and holding it disabled would leave a
berth that could never be crewed and so could never be paid for again.
Ships have no hit points and a shield absorbs a hit wholesale, so the lost
vessel is scuttled rather than damaged - otherwise a shielded hull would
survive its own eviction.

Every cooling vessel logged "Invalid polygon data, triangulation failed"
once per frame, for as long as its cooldown ran - 16 of them in a single
test_laser_vessel run. The fill was drawn anyway, so nothing looked wrong,
but it buried real errors in test logs.
_filled_hull cut each hull edge against the fill line itself, which is
Sutherland-Hodgman, and Sutherland-Hodgman is only sound for a CONVEX
subject. Hulls are not: the gas bomber has a tail notch and the distorder a
waist. On those it stitched the pieces back together with a zero-width
bridge, and a polygon with a zero-width bridge is not one the triangulator
accepts.
Geometry2D.intersect_polygons does the clipping properly and returns a list
of polygons, which is also the truer answer - a notched hull genuinely fills
as two puddles until the level rises past the notch. A weld-and-area guard
stays in front of the renderer for repeated vertices and slivers.
Zero triangulation errors across the vessel tests now.

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.

Asteroids were pure hazard: the only thing one could ever do was cost you a
ship. They now take damage like anything else and break open, dropping ore the
fleet can fly over and collect - the one resource reachable in open space
without conquering anything, and something for the new fire stick to do out
there.
Two ways to destroy one, deliberately not equivalent. Shot apart yields the
ore; flown into does not - the rock shatters against a hull rather than being
mined, and a ship or a shield charge has just been spent on it. Without that
split a shield vessel could farm asteroids by ramming them.
Asteroid.take_damage() matches Enemy's contract exactly, so every weapon that
already knew how to hurt an enemy hurts an asteroid through the same branch
rather than a second special case: bolts, the laser sweep, and the gas bomb's
blast all pick both groups up together.
Dropped ore carries the asteroid's own drift, so it reads as debris rather
than as a spawned pickup, and it expires after a minute. Rock grew an optional
lifetime for that, defaulting to 0 (never) so hand-placed surface rocks are
unchanged - a planet surface is bounded and authored, open space is not, and a
field shot up and abandoned would otherwise leak nodes for the session. Rock's
header note that asteroids and rocks are never on screen together is no longer
true and now says so; the hexagon-versus-lump shape language matters more now
that they sit side by side, not less.
Five weapon tests silenced the asteroid field but never cleared what it had
already placed. That was harmless while asteroids were untouchable and is not
any more - two of them assert exact hit counts, and a drifting rock in the
beam would have made those fail intermittently.
Suite 111/111.

Shots cost GAS_PER_SHOT (5) from GameState.fleet_inventory, not the
bank - the fleet has to be carrying its own ammunition. The button's
enabled rule now also requires affordability, and a press on a ready-
but-unaffordable bomber still consumes the touch to explain itself via
a new status label (GasBombStatus, IconButton's own "greyed but still
pressable" convention) rather than either silently doing nothing or
consuming the bomber's cooldown for a shot that never fires.
Also documents a real, reproducible GDScript trap hit while writing
tests/test_gas_bomber_ammo.gd: a bare `ClassName.SOME_CONST` reference
anywhere in a -s entry test script can corrupt method resolution for
the WHOLE script, making an unrelated, earlier `some_node._process()`
call fail with "Nonexistent function '_process' in base 'Nil'" despite
the node being valid and the method existing (confirmed via
has_method()). Root cause unconfirmed; fixed by mirroring the constant
's value into a local const instead of referencing the class directly,
in all three gas-bomber tests.
tests/test_gas_bomber.gd and test_gas_bomber_cooldowns.gd updated to
stock fleet gas first, since shots are no longer free.
