Three truths

What is in the build, what the factory has proved, what the release checks say

They answer different questions and are all true at once. The build loads 84 of 84 roles; the stage receipts place 58 of 58 placeable assets.

Runtime presence

84 of 84 roles load, 0 errors

79 model files serve the 84 rows (some rows share one file). Receipt from production 2026.10.07-apply-960fccb, 7 Oct 09:00 UTC.

Runtime provenance receipt

Stage receipts

84 of 84 in game, 58 placed, 84 verified

Per asset, for the revision the release ships, from the snapshot of 7 Oct 09:38 UTC. In game and placed come from the release gate's per-component receipt; verified from the stable release that carries it. Missing evidence does not mean the model is missing from the build.

The factory stopped 4 Oct 07:24 UTC with 23 of its best revisions never merged into main; the game ships its own revision of those assets until each one is reviewed.

Release checks

2026.10.07-apply-960fccb passes 42 of 42 checks

    59.88 FPS median against the 60 FPS target, p95 16.7 ms, over 60 s of combat at 1920×1080.

    Production gate receipt, 7 Oct 09:10 UTC

    Map

    The design against the city the game draws

    Same landmark ids on both maps. Colours come from the runtime receipt and the measured faults, not from the factory queue.

Keep the post, base, crown, finial, glass colour and overall height exactly as they are now; stay under 1500 triangles and 200 kB.

      Next Every asset it holds is parked on a plateau. Needs a new strategy before another attempt

      Judge on Transformers and junction boxes: Change only proportions and placement in build_utility_transformers.py. Make each of the three transformer cylinders about 1.2 m tall and 0.55 m diameter, placed in a tight equilateral triangle around the pole top with the rear one raised about 0.25 m so all three are distinct from front and street views. Enlarge the two junction boxes to about 0.65 m wide by 0.9 m tall by 0.35 m deep, mounted side by side so together they span about 1.4 m, hung just below the cylinders so the stack is top-heavy and the bare pole below is short. On the box faces, replace all painted text with glyph-free marks: a single large yellow triangle outline with a black border on the left box, and two solid coloured rectangles (yellow and white) on the right box as label placeholders. Do not draw any characters. Leave cables, insulators, materials, textures, and the pole untouched.
