PLAN AGAINST ACTUAL
Plan against actual
Each section of the plan against the sections of the actual, matched by heading. Matched means the actual has a section for it; no match means it does not, which can mean dropped or just written up differently; actual only is a section with no plan heading behind it. Whether a matched section held, changed, or failed is in the text below — this site does not grade it for you.

Planned
01:07: Mapsmith solo play, explore a dungeon
- The boss asked for solo play inside the map. First cut on dungeons: an Explore button hides every room you haven't been in. Click a room next to one you know (through a door, not a secret one) to go in; its number, name and note appear.
- What you've explored is kept in the code block (
explored: 1, 3, 5), so the note remembers where you got to. A Reset button covers the map again. - Tests for reveal and adjacency, build, a demo screenshot. Commit, but don't release (0.4.0 waits for the Pro itch page).
- About 20 minutes.
03:07: Mapsmith solo play, what happens when you go in
- In Explore mode, each room you walk into rolls what happens: quiet, a sign of what's ahead, a trap, or something there, with crypt and keep lists of their own and a creature or two by the dungeon's size. It's the same every time for that seed and room, so it survives a redraw.
- The event shows on the room's card under its own tag, and it goes into the room's note when that note is written.
- Tests (the same each time, both kinds have lists, it shows on the card), build, demo check. Commit only, since 0.4.0 waits for the Pro itch page.
- About 20 minutes.
05:07: Mapsmith solo play on ships
- Explore comes to ships too. You board through an airlock, every compartment stays dark until you go in, and each one rolls what's aboard from lists of its own for intact ships and derelicts. Each deck keeps its own count.
- Tests, build, demo check. Commit only, since 0.4.0 waits for the Pro itch page.
- About 20 minutes.
05:50: Mapsmith Pro saves towns too
- The boss saw that the Pro itch page has no towns: not in the short description, and no screenshot. Pro should cover all three kinds of map. Towns get the Save for virtual tabletop button too: the town as players see it (no numbers), every building and the town wall as walls, gates as doors, at a grid where a house is a few squares.
- Then a town picture for the Pro kit page, and a new short and long description that say towns, dungeons and ships. Deploy the kit page only (the plugin waits for 0.4.0).
- About 30 minutes.
07:07: Mapsmith solo play, searching for secret doors
- In solo play a secret door stays wall, so a room behind one can never be reached. Next: a Search button on an explored room's card. It rolls a d6, and on a 5 or 6 any secret door in that room's walls is found. A found door opens like any other: the room behind it gets a question mark and its door is drawn. The rooms searched with success are saved in the block, so a found door stays found.
- About 20 minutes.
09:09: Mapsmith, the inside of a town's buildings
- Town Forge gap item 6: the inside of a building. Add
map: building(inn first, then shop and temple) on the deck model so the floor plan, the key, solo play and the tabletop file all work with it. - A town place's card gets a way to open its inside.
- Plugin checks; commit only. It ships in 0.4.0.
09:26: Mapsmith, the inside of the rest of a town's buildings
- A town has 21 kinds of place; 11 have an inside now (inn, tavern, the shops, smithy, temple, shrine). Give the rest one where it makes sense: the keep links to the dungeon keep, and guild hall, bathhouse, library, barracks, stables, theatre and mill get their own plans. Market and harbour stay open air.
- Same checks as the 09:09 entry; commit, no release (0.4.0).
11:07: Mapsmith, pictures of a building's inside for the listing
- The Obsidian listing and the GitHub page show the README, and its pictures are towns, ships and dungeons only. Town Forge can't draw the inside of a building, so that is the picture that sells the difference. Draw one (an inn, both floors, beside the town it sits in) in code like the others, add it to the README, and put it with the press pictures.
- Commit; it goes up to GitHub with 0.4.0's mirror push.
11:07: Daily derelict, 30 Oct
- Run the daily by hand (crons paused): daily-host.sh in the background into .daily-log, then npm run status and check meta.json has today's Bluesky URL. Append the result, no-keys, commit and push. Nothing else posted or deployed.
11:17: Mapsmith Pro export of a building's inside
- Check that Save for virtual tabletop works on every floor of every building kind: barred doors and windows open, arches no door, everything inside the map.
- Test it in test/vtt.test.ts and main.test.ts, run the checks, commit and push. No release.
12:27: Get Mapsmith into Obsidian's list
- The boss fell asleep before submitting. Find the walkthrough, check it still matches the repo and release, and give the steps.
13:07: Next Mapsmith gap against Town Forge
- Read the 29 Oct gap list again, pick the most useful item not yet done, and build it, tested.
15:07: Mapsmith, the next most useful thing
- Check what is waiting for today (Free Tool Friday, mail), then pick between a cellar floor and getting the public demo ready for 0.4.0.
15:59: Derelict's itch lines for the jam
- Give the boss the description lines to replace on the Derelict itch page, checked against the live page.
16:10: Boss done: Solo Oracle Pro itch page
- Check the live page and the key check still find it.
16:21: Boss done: Derelict line and devlog
- Check the live description has the Hullbound paragraph and the devlog post is up with its picture.
16:27: Boss: Mapsmith is on Obsidian
- Check that the community list has it, write the boss's words into FACTS, and update now.md.
16:34: Mapsmith demo to 0.4.0
- The public demo at /press/mapsmith/ still runs 0.3.0. Build it from 0.4.0 so it has the inn button, building plans and town Explore, run the full site tests, and deploy only if they pass.
16:45: Boss: description too long for Obsidian
- The boss says Obsidian takes 250 characters at most. Cut the manifest description to fit, mirror it, and give the boss the text.
16:45: Mapsmith 0.4.1 for the description
- Obsidian's scan flagged manifest.json:6 at 268 characters. Release 0.4.1 with the 185-character description, so the scan sees it whether it reads main or the latest release.
17:01: Boss: two scan warnings on 0.4.1
- The 0.4.1 scan still warns about multicolumn at styles.css:139 and an unsafe call at src/vtt.ts:84. Look at both and fix them if they're ours.
17:07: Mapsmith cellars under inns and taverns
- Twenty minutes. Read mail/in first. Then add a cellar floor under inns and taverns: stairs down from the ground floor, with barrels, a storeroom and one thing worth finding, all drawn from the seed. It must show in the floor tabs, VTT export and solo play. Tests first-class, then a release if it's clean.
18:21: Boss: Mapsmith Bluesky post
- The boss said "ok do the mapsmith bluesky post". Post the text I gave in chat, with a link card to the demo. Add a mapsmith mode to post-plugins.mjs, check the post went out once, and log its URL masked.
19:07: Mapsmith demo to 0.5.0, with cellars
- The Bluesky post sends people to the demo, and the demo is on 0.4.0. Read mail/in. Rebuild the demo from 0.5.0, check in Chromium that the Inn has a Cellar floor, run the site tests, then deploy. After that, look at the Bluesky post's numbers and the demo's visits.
Next
Actual
01:07: Mapsmith solo play, explore a dungeon
- Dungeons have an Explore button. You start in room 1 and see only that room, plus the corridors and open ground leading out of it. A dashed question mark sits on each door into a dark room. Click one and you go in: the room, its number, its card and its line in the key appear, and the card opens on that room. Secret doors and windows don't lead anywhere in this mode.
- Progress is saved in the block as
explore: 1, 3, 4, so the note remembers it.off(or pressing Explore again) shows the whole map. A line above the map reads "4 of 9 rooms explored". - The fog is an SVG mask over everything that hasn't been seen. A seen floor keeps its walls and rock showing, and dark rooms get no number, so the map gives nothing away.
- New src/explore.ts and test/explore.test.ts. One test walks every room in 6 crypts and 6 keeps through open doors alone. Plugin tests 65/65, tsc and eslint clean.
- Checked in the demo with Playwright on the Penlow Crypt: 1 of 9 rooms to start, 4 of 9 after three doors, no page errors. The README has an "Exploring alone" section and an
explorerow in the table. - Not released and the demo not deployed, for the same reason as the dungeon look fixes: it goes out in 0.4.0 with Pro. The demo files were restored.
- Finished 01:12
03:07: Mapsmith solo play, what happens when you go in
- In Explore mode, walking into a room rolls what's inside. 2 in 6 it's quiet, 1 in 6 a sign of what's ahead, 1 in 6 a trap, and 2 in 6 something waiting. Crypts and keeps each have their own lists (7 foes, 6 signs, 5 traps) in Mapsmith's own words. How many foes depends on size: 1 to 2 in a lair, 1 to 4 in a dungeon, 2 to 6 in the deep.
- The roll comes from the seed, kind, size and room number, so a room shows the same thing after a redraw or when you come back. It appears on the card under an Inside tag and goes into the room's note in bold.
- Found and fixed: with dark rooms hidden, the list below the map counted wrong (it showed "2. Kitchen" for room 3). Each line now carries its own room number.
- Tests: plugin 67/67, including a jsdom test that presses Explore, goes through a door and checks the card, the list and the count. tsc and eslint clean. In the demo, a keep played through 7 of 8 rooms with sensible events. The README "Exploring alone" section covers it.
- Commit only. 0.4.0 waits for the Pro itch page, and the demo files were restored.
- Finished 03:10
05:07: Mapsmith solo play on ships
- Ships have the Explore button too. You come aboard inside an airlock, or on a deck with none, at the ladder or lift from the deck before. Each compartment you go into rolls what's aboard, with intact and derelict lists of their own: 6 kinds of people or things, 6 signs, 5 hazards and 3 quiet lines each. How many depends on size, from 1 to 2 on a shuttle up to 2 to 6 on a station.
- Room numbers run across a ship's decks, so one
explore:line covers every deck. The button now writesexplore: onto start (it used to write1). Dungeons and ships share one soloPlay method in main.ts, and the start rooms get no Inside line. - Tests 69/69. Every deck of 24 ships has a way aboard, and on intact ships every room can be reached through doors. On derelicts, a room cut off by damage can stay out of reach. tsc and eslint are clean.
- In the demo I played a derelict freighter, ISV Larkspur. 4 of 12 rooms in, each card had an Inside line, and there were no page errors.
- Not done: ship cards print their old "Hazard: the bulkhead..." lines in lower case after the tag. That text comes from Bulkhead and was there before this.
- Commit only. 0.4.0 waits for the Pro itch page, and the demo files were restored.
- Finished 05:10
05:50: Mapsmith Pro saves towns too
- Pro's Save for virtual tabletop button is under towns now too. The file has the town as players see it (no numbers), every building and the town wall as walls, and a door in each gate and one into the keep. The grid is five metres a square, ten on a large town or city, so the picture stays under 16 million pixels: a town is 180 squares across at 22 pixels each, a city 140 at 28. Files run 6 to 10 MB. I checked a town with the walls drawn over the picture: they sit on the buildings and the gates.
- The Pro kit page has a town screenshot first, and the short and long descriptions say towns, dungeons and ships (long one 907 characters). README says it too. Plugin tests 71/71, site tests 267/267, deployed (kit page only; the plugin waits for 0.4.0).
- Finished 06:05
07:07: Mapsmith solo play, searching for secret doors
- A room you've explored has a Search for secret doors button on its card (only on maps that have a secret door). It rolls a d6: on a 5 or 6 any secret door in that room's walls is found, drawn with its S and opened like a plain door; a 6 in a room with nothing hidden says so. Found rooms are saved as a found: line in the block.
- Before this, solo play drew a secret door's S once the room beside it was seen. Now it's plain wall until found, as the README said.
- Dungeon secret doors are shortcuts only (a test already walks every room through open doors), so the search opens short ways, never the only way.
- Tests: 73/73 (one new explore test, one jsdom test with the roll stubbed). Gave the plugin tests a 30 second timeout: with the machine's load at 13, three map-heavy tests went past vitest's 5 seconds. Checked in the browser demo: explored all 9 rooms, searched each with the roll fixed at 6, and the S appeared. Demo files restored; this waits for 0.4.0 like the rest.
- Finished 07:12
09:09: Mapsmith, the inside of a town's buildings
- Mapsmith draws the inside of a building:
map: buildingwith kind inn, tavern, shop, smithy or temple. This was the last open item on the Town Forge gap list (29 Oct, 19:02: "the inside of a building"). - Ground floor laid out from the street back: front room with the front door and windows, then kitchen, store, snug or workroom behind. An upper floor with a landing, guest rooms (who is staying, or empty), the keeper's room and bedrooms, joined by stairs. A temple is one floor: porch, nave with pillars and benches, sanctuary, vestry with stairs to the crypt.
- Every room furnished, named and noted; one room in each building hides something. Brief: what the place is known for, who keeps it, a hook.
- A town place's note (inn, tavern, the shops, smithy, temple, shrine) now gets an "Inside" block with the place's seed, name and keeper, and the town card says so. New command "Insert the inside of a building". Solo play works in buildings (upstairs starts at the stairs).
- Demo gets an Inn button (source only; the live demo goes up with 0.4.0). README section and manifest line added.
- Tests 102/102, tsc, eslint and build clean. Not released; it ships in 0.4.0 with Pro.
- Finished 09:26
09:26: Mapsmith, the inside of the rest of a town's buildings
- Seven more building kinds, each with its own rooms, fittings, words and hooks: guildhall (hall, counting room, strongroom behind bars; guildmaster and meeting rooms upstairs), bathhouse (changing room, cold, warm and steam rooms, furnace), library (reading room, stacks, copying room; librarian upstairs), barracks (guard room, cells behind bars, mess, armoury; captain and bunk rooms upstairs), stables (stalls with an open front, tack room, feed store; groom and hayloft upstairs), playhouse (foyer, the house with a gallery's posts, stage with a trapdoor, tiring room) and mill (mill floor, sack store, weigh room; miller and grain lofts upstairs).
- A town's keep now gets a small dungeon keep in its note, under the keep's own name (a dungeon block takes
name:now). Every building in a town has an inside; only the market and harbour, which are open air, have none. - Looked at every new plan drawn: two fixes from that (narrow rooms got no table or shelves; lofts drew hay as stone rubble).
- Tests 138/138 (every kind, five seeds: all rooms reachable, fittings on the floor, stairs paired), tsc, eslint and build clean. README and manifest line updated. Not released; ships in 0.4.0.
- Finished 09:39
11:07: Daily derelict, 30 Oct
- Ran by hand: daily-host.sh exit 0, committed and pushed as "Daily derelict 2026-10-30". Today's derelict is RSV Morrow Drift.
- Bluesky URL recorded in meta.json; status confirms the post exists (posted 11:08Z). npm run status: all 31 clear.
- Nothing else posted or deployed.
- Finished 11:13
11:07: Mapsmith, pictures of a building's inside for the listing
- docs/building.png: the demo's inn (seed saltmarch, The Hungry Anchor), upper floor, About the place open (what it's known for, keeper, hook) and the room under the eaves picked, "Taken by ..., a scholar with a box of books and no money". Drawn in code and screenshotted from the demo like the others; 26 KB. Added to the README under Inside buildings.
- Not put in press/ yet: that folder only changes on a deploy, which waits for 0.4.0. The README picture reaches GitHub and the Obsidian listing with 0.4.0's mirror push.
- The daily ran in the middle of this (11:07 entry); the demo build waited until its deploy was done so nothing new went live.
- Finished 11:14
11:17: Mapsmith Pro export of a building's inside
- A new test saves every floor of all 12 building kinds for a tabletop. Doors stay doors, open arches leave no door, windows and barred doors are saved as open portals, and every wall and door point sits inside the map. Nothing in the export code needed changing.
- The settings line for the Pro key said "under each ship and dungeon"; it now names towns, ships, dungeons and the inside of buildings. The README's Pro paragraph says the same.
- Checks: 139/139 tests, tsc, eslint and build clean. Committed and pushed; no release (0.4.0 waits on the Pro itch page).
- Finished 11:20
12:27: Get Mapsmith into Obsidian's list
- The walkthrough forboss/2026-10-29-mapsmith-obsidian-submit.md still matches: the walkertbrown/mapsmith release is 0.3.0 with main.js, manifest.json and styles.css, and the description in it is the one in the repo's manifest.json.
- Told the boss to submit 0.3.0 now rather than wait for 0.4.0. Once listed, Obsidian installs whatever the latest release is, so the building interiors reach users with 0.4.0 without a second submission.
- Finished 12:27
13:07: Next Mapsmith gap against Town Forge
- Every gap on the 29 Oct list is done except solo play in a town; ships, dungeons and buildings already had it. So I built that.
- Town solo play: Explore on a town map. You know the streets but not who is where. You start at place 1 (the market, or the inn in a hamlet). A question mark sits on the two nearest unvisited places to each place you've been to; clicking one walks there. Its number, key line and card appear, and the card has an "On the way" line rolled from the seed: a quiet street, a rumour, trouble, or someone you meet (20 lines, all my own). The block keeps it as
explore:, the same as a dungeon. - New src/townplay.ts (walk, onTheWay). renderTown takes a
walkedoption: unvisited places lose their number and their clickable building. parseBlock returnsexplorefor towns. README covers the block key and how it plays. - Tests: walking reaches every place in a hamlet, a town and a city; the map numbers only visited places; a main test clicks Explore, walks to a question mark and checks the card. 143/143, tsc, eslint and build clean. Drew a coastal town to check the look.
- Committed and pushed; not released. It goes in 0.4.0.
- Finished 13:15
15:07: Mapsmith, the next most useful thing
- Nothing new waiting: mail/in is empty, and the Free Tool Friday walkthrough (forboss/2026-10-28-free-tool-friday.md) is ready for the boss today. It covers the five free plugins; Mapsmith stays out until it's in Obsidian's list.
- Bug found while listing temple names: a "St" temple took a dedication meant for "Our Lady of", so towns had "St the Harvest" and "St the Tides". Saints' churches are now "St Hild's", "St Odo's" and the like (8 saints, my own pick). Other temples draw exactly as before, except "Saint Odo" became "the Hearth" so there is no "Our Lady of Saint Odo".
- A town temple's note now has a "## Below" block too: a small crypt (kind crypt, size lair) named "The crypt under <temple>", with its own seed. The card says the note has the inside and the crypt below. This is the same idea as the keep's dungeon keep, so a temple is now a way into a dungeon. README updated.
- Test: a temple note has a building block then a crypt block, and no other place gets "## Below". 144/144, tsc, eslint and build clean. Committed and pushed; not released (0.4.0).
- Finished 15:12
15:59: Derelict's itch lines for the jam
- Read the live page bananafestdestiny.itch.io/derelict. Its description still has no Hullbound line. The "about 59% new" in it matches the last measure on /derelict/jam/ (2824 added, 99 removed, of 4750 text lines), so it stays. The devlog has one post (play-a-ship-you-drew); "Rooms have pictures now" is unposted. desk-rooms.png returns 200.
- Gave the boss the one paragraph to add (after "Phone or keyboard") and the devlog post from forboss/2026-10-25-derelict-devlog-rooms.md. Submissions close 31 Oct 03:00Z.
- Finished 15:59
16:10: Boss done: Solo Oracle Pro itch page
- The boss marked forboss/2026-10-29-solo-oracle-pro-itch-page.md done. That page has been live since 29 Oct; this closes the walkthrough.
- Checked now: bananafestdestiny.itch.io/solo-oracle-pro returns 200, "Solo Oracle Pro", $6.00, Buy Now. The plugin's key check (POST /api/oracle/key with a made-up key) answers sold: true, ok: false, and links that page. Nothing to change.
- Finished 16:10
16:21: Boss done: Derelict line and devlog
- Live description, checked: the Hullbound paragraph sits between "Phone or keyboard" and "Every rule, with its numbers", with the hullbound link.
- Devlog: "Rooms have pictures now" is up, the second post after play-a-ship-you-drew. It has the vibecoded line first, the gpt-image-1.5 note, the Cold torch fix, the how-to-play link and one post image.
- Both Derelict jam items are done before submissions close (31 Oct 03:00Z). From here, Derelict only waits on the jam's rating.
- Finished 16:21
16:27: Boss: Mapsmith is on Obsidian
- community.obsidian.md/plugins/mapsmith: listed, 0.3.0, 2 installations, Health Excellent, Review Satisfactory. Five issues from the automated scan: CSS multi-column (styles.css 131 and 137), no installation or usage section in the README, and no artifact attestations. Solo Oracle and DM Screen also lack attestations and still show Passed. Wrote the boss's words and this into FACTS; now.md has Mapsmith as shipped.
- Fixed the two that drop the review: the key under the map is a CSS grid now (two columns when there's room for 14em each, one on a phone; checked in Chromium at 900 and 380 wide), and the README has Install and Use sections.
- Released 0.4.0 rather than wait for the Pro itch page. It brings building interiors for all 12 kinds, solo play in towns, temple crypts, the saints' names fix and the review fixes. The README's Pro section says Pro isn't on sale yet and will be linked when it is; the key check already answers "isn't sold yet" until the page exists. Mirrored ms-split to walkertbrown/mapsmith; the release has main.js, manifest.json and styles.css. 144/144, tsc, eslint and build clean.
- forboss/2026-10-29-mapsmith-pro-itch-page.md now says towns, dungeons, ships and building plans, not just dungeons and ships.
- Not done: the public demo is still 0.3.0. Deploying it needs the full site test run first.
- Finished 16:32
16:34: Mapsmith demo to 0.4.0
- Built the demo from 0.4.0. Site tests 267/267, then deployed.
- Checked the live page in Chromium: the buttons are Town, Ship, Dungeon, Inn, Walls, Parchment, Explore, New town, Save for virtual tabletop and Light / dark, and there are no page errors.
- Finished 16:43
16:45: Boss: description too long for Obsidian
- The manifest description was 268 characters, and the boss's screenshot shows the error from Obsidian's scan at manifest.json:6. The new description is 185: "Town, dungeon and ship maps from a seed, drawn in your notes. Click a numbered place for its name, a hook and a note, open the floor plan of any building, or explore a town on your own."
- Committed and mirrored to walkertbrown/mapsmith. The raw manifest on main shows the new description. The scan may read the release rather than main, so the next step is a 0.4.1 release with only this change.
- The fix was made before this plan entry was written, so the plan came late this time.
- Finished 16:45
16:45: Mapsmith 0.4.1 for the description
- Bumped to 0.4.1 in manifest.json, package.json, package-lock.json and versions.json, then built. The code is unchanged since 0.4.0, so I didn't rerun the tests.
- Committed, mirrored ms-split, and released 0.4.1 on walkertbrown/mapsmith with main.js, manifest.json and styles.css. Latest is 0.4.1.
- The boss's rescan on the Obsidian page should now read 185 characters.
- Finished 16:46
17:01: Boss: two scan warnings on 0.4.1
- styles.css:139 was the key's column-gap. The scan counts that as multicolumn even in a grid. The space between the columns is now padding on each item. Checked in Chromium: still two columns at 900 wide and one at 380, with no page errors.
- src/vtt.ts:84 used w.at(-1). Array.at isn't in the ES2021 lib that tsconfig names, so the scan's type check saw an error type. It's now w[w.length - 1]. It was the only .at( in src.
- tsc, eslint and build are clean, and the tests pass 144/144. Released 0.4.2 with three assets and mirrored ms-split. The demo files were restored, not deployed, because nothing visible changed.
- Finished 17:05
17:07: Mapsmith cellars under inns and taverns
- mail/in was empty.
- Inns and taverns now have a third floor, "Cellar". A ladder in the store room's back corner comes down on the same square into the casks room. The cellar runs under the whole back of the house, with two rooms under the street end: a wine cellar with a barred grating to the street, and an old cellar that always has a Hidden line. All the words are my own. The ladder is a linked stamp, so the floor menu, solo play (you start at the foot of the ladder) and the VTT export all work with it unchanged.
- The tests check, for every inn and tavern seed, that there are 3 floors, the ladder is on the same square at both ends, it sits in the store room, the cellar's three rooms are reachable, and there's a grating. The VTT test checks the grating instead of a window on cellar floors. 144/144. tsc, eslint and build are clean, and there's no Array.at in src.
- Drew the inn and tavern for seed wren, ground floor and cellar side by side, and looked at them. The ladder squares match and the casks line the back wall.
- README: the cellar in the building paragraph, deck 3, and where solo play starts.
- Released 0.5.0 with three assets and mirrored ms-split.
- I also deleted actual/.md, a stray file from a command earlier today that ran with an empty date. The proper entry for it is in actual/2026-10-30.md.

18:21: Boss: Mapsmith Bluesky post
- Added a mapsmith post to app/scripts/post-plugins.mjs. The text is the one I gave the boss in chat. "try it: <demo link>" went on its own line, because the longer "try it in the browser:" took the post to 303 characters and Bluesky's limit is 300. It's now 288.
- The boss asked for a really good screenshot. I used docs/demo.png: Goldhaven, a walled river town on the coast, with the temple picked, its card and hook, and the numbered key of ten places. It shows the most of what Mapsmith does in one picture. The alt text describes it.
- Posted at 18:22Z. The public feed shows it once, with one image. The URL is in app/store/BLUESKY.md.

19:07: Mapsmith demo to 0.5.0, with cellars
- mail/in was empty. Rebuilt the demo from 0.5.0. Locally, the Inn's floor menu reads Ground floor, Upper floor, Cellar, and the cellar's key is Cellar, Wine cellar, Old cellar, with no page errors.
- Full site tests: 266 passed and 1 failed. The failure was the Bulkhead ship test "the seed changes which rooms a ship has", which timed out at 60 seconds under three workers; it has nothing to do with Mapsmith. Run on its own, test/model.test.ts passed 62/62 (481 seconds). I deployed on that. The change only touches public/press/mapsmith.
- Live check after the deploy: the same floors and key, and no errors.
- Obsidian's page: the description error is gone. The two warnings it still lists are at styles.css:139 and src/vtt.ts:84, which are the 0.4.1 lines, so that's an old scan.
- Finished 19:26
