+
+**The Valley**
+- The tutorial with Old Tam (New World, Tutorial), or start a normal world
+  and listen for his tips.
+- Make a camp, survive a few nights, a winter, a wolf moon.
+- Iron, stone building, the barrow, the standing stones and the Old Stag.
+- Out on the clifftop, the cracked seam: dig the cliff tunnel down to the
+  Cove (an antler pickaxe, wood to prop it, lights).
+
+**The Cove (new in 0.6.0)**
+- The wreck at the far end of the beach: the captain's sea chest has a
+  treasure map for each player. Right-click the map, find your X (N for the
+  map), and dig it up with a pickaxe. Don't dig at night, or do.
+- The pier: mackerel close in, cod from the far end.
+- Gulls, after food on the sand and fish on a smoking rack.
+- Crabs on the beach from dusk till dawn.
+- Build a rowing boat (seagrass rope, pitch from pine resin and salt,
+  driftwood and nails, at a workbench) and tie it up at the end of the pier.
+
+**Online**
+- Host Game from the title screen, and have a friend join. Over the
+  internet, forward UDP ports **24242** and **24243** (the Cove has its own
+  server on the next port).
+- Go between the lands together and apart, chat, sleep (everyone in every
+  land has to be in bed), and leave and come back.
+
+## Not in this build (these aren't bugs)
+
+- **Setting sail.** The boat ties up but can't leave yet: the Highlands are
+  the next part of the journey.
+- **Pirate gold** has no use yet beyond being a trophy: there's no trader.
+- **The ship's compass** does nothing yet; it's what the boat will need.
+
+## Things we'd especially like to hear
+
+- Anywhere you got stuck, or didn't know what to do next.
+- Anything that felt too hard, too easy, or too slow (night, hunger, cold,
+  the drowned crew, the crabs).
+- Frame-rate drops, and on what computer.
+- Anything online that went out of step between players.

+    it's still clearly the game, but harsher: no volumetric fog or haze,
+    no SSAO/SSIL (darker, sharper shadows), deeper greens. Night and fire
+    light hold up. **The sea renders flat white**: `shaders/water.gdshader`
+    needs a Compatibility path. Ordinary distance fog would bring some
+    atmosphere back; grass density and tree counts likely need a lower
+    setting for browsers (speed not measured yet).
+  - *Single-player only:* browsers can't use ENet (UDP), and can't start
+    the Host Game or per-land server processes. Joining from a browser
+    would mean a WebSocket transport on the server, served over wss://
+    (a certificate per server): a separate, bigger job, if ever.
+  - *Saves* go in the browser's storage (IndexedDB): kept, but per browser
+    and lost if site data is cleared. Maybe an export/import button.
+  - *Input:* the pointer lock needs a click, and Esc releases it in the
+    browser, so the pause menu needs another key too (P).
+  - *Size and hosting:* the engine (godot.wasm, 39.5 MB) plus the game data
+    (about 22 MB) download first, then cache. Cloudflare Pages refuses files
+    over 25 MiB, so the .wasm has to live elsewhere (the Gitea release, or
+    another host) or be split.
+  - *Size of the job:* one step to build it and see how it runs, another to
+    fix the water, tune the graphics and controls, and put it on the page.
+- **Cloud saves** (Paul, Nov 2026: with the web version, and useful before
+  it, desktop to desktop): carry a single-player world between the desktop
+  game and the browser, **both ways**.
+  - *In the game:* pause menu **Save to cloud** (a cloud name and a password
+    the first time; after that it can upload on each save: autosave, sleep,
+    quit); title screen **Load from cloud** (name and password, pick a
+    world, it downloads and you carry on). What travels: the world folder
+    (`meta.json`, `world.json`), its explored map (`maps/`), and which of
+    Old Tam's tips you've seen. Not online worlds (they live on their server).
+  - *Size:* a world is 8-32 KB on disk, a few KB compressed: uploads are
+    instant and storage is next to free.
+  - *Where:* a Cloudflare Worker beside the site (`/api/...`), saves in R2
+    (or D1). Free tier is plenty. (Paul's own server would do, but is one
+    more service to keep running.)
+  - *Safety:* passwords never stored, only a salted hash (PBKDF2, WebCrypto
+    in the Worker); HTTPS only; wrong guesses lock a name out for a while;
+    a size cap and a world count per name. Option: encrypt the save with
+    the password in the game before upload, so the server holds only
+    ciphertext (but a forgotten password loses the cloud copy; the local
+    copy is unaffected).
+  - *Playing in two places:* each upload carries a counter. If the cloud's
+    copy is newer than the one you last downloaded, the game asks ("The
+    cloud has a newer save (from the web, 20 minutes ago): use that, or
+    keep this one?") instead of overwriting it.
+  - *Versions:* the same save format on desktop and web; a save from a
+    newer version than the game says so rather than loading it badly.
+  - *Size of the job:* one step for the Worker and storage (with tests), one
+    for the game side (name and password, the buttons, the newer-copy
+    question). Paul creates the Worker and its storage in his Cloudflare
+    account; the code and setup steps come with it.
+- **Later, maybe:** Android tablets (Nov 2026: left for now). Most input is
+  already named actions, so a touch layer (stick, look, contextual buttons)
+  is possible; the Mobile renderer has the same lost effects as the web, and
+  a tablet can join but not host (no server processes).

+
+*As built in J3a (a server per land):*
+- `scripts/net/lands.gd` (autoload `Lands`): the server players join is the
+  hub. `Lands.ensure(land)` starts a land server (`--server --land cove
+  --port <hub+1..> --hub-port <hub>`, same config and world folder, output
+  to `land-<land>.log` beside server.json) and waits for it to say it's
+  listening. Hub and land servers talk over TCP on 127.0.0.1, port hub +
+  100, one JSON object per line: hello/ready, the player count, the clock
+  (the hub's, every 10 s: one clock everywhere), how far the tunnel's dug,
+  one-time passes, "stop", "host_left". A land server stops after 2 minutes
+  empty, when the hub stops, or if it loses the hub.
+- A land server's saves: `Saves.land` makes it load and save its own
+  worldlet's file (`worldlets/cove.json`) in the hub's world folder.
+  Characters (`players/<id>.json`) are shared, and say which land they're
+  in (`land`) and, mid-crossing, where they'll come out (`arrive`).
+- Crossing (`PlayerNet.cross`): the server saves the character as heading
+  there, makes sure the other server's up, and sends the game
+  `_s2c_travel {land, port, pass}`; the game drops the connection quietly
+  and joins that port with the pass (`Net.join(address, "", pass)`), checked
+  after the identity proof: a land server lets nobody in without one. The
+  world reloads on `Net.arrived`. Joining the hub when your character's in
+  another land sends you on there; a crossing that fails goes back to the
+  title. A hosted game: the host crossing doesn't stop the hub; the host
+  leaving the game from another land stops everything.
+- The tunnel online: built on the server and in every game. The server
+  decides blows on its faces (`"hit"` finds them by uid), props
+  (`"tunnel_prop"`), going in and out (`"tunnel_go"`: a server teleport;
+  the move check allows the tunnel only from inside it) and the crossings
+  (`"cross"`), and tells everyone how it stands (`_s2c_tunnel`; it's in the
+  shared state a joining player gets, and saved with the Valley).
+- `tests/test_net_lands.gd`: Alice digs and props online, lights it,
+  crosses to the Cove (bag and day kept) while Bob stays in the Valley,
+  comes back up, then leaves from the Cove and rejoining sends her there.
+
+*As built in J3b (everyone, everywhere):*
+- Chat and server messages go to every land (`Chat._all` relays through
+  the hub, `Lands.relay_line`).

+### The Cove's own dangers and the pirate treasure (Paul, Nov 2026, for 0.6.0)
+Paused at the Cove for a playtest before the Highlands. The Cove gets its
+own set pieces instead of copies of the Valley's:
+- **Set pieces per land**, listed in each worldlet's data (`"places"`). The
+  Valley keeps the wolf den, the barrow, the standing stones (the Old Stag)
+  and the bear; the Cove keeps the wolves only, and gets the wreck and the
+  treasure.
+- **The wreck:** a beached ship on the rocks at the far end of the bay, its
+  timbers along the sand (driftwood). Its captain's sea chest: some nails,
+  rope, coins and a **torn treasure map**.
+- **The map:** reading it puts an X on your N map: a mound of loose earth
+  by a marker stone in the Cove's hills (your own spot: see below).
+- **The dig:** a pickaxe, many blows, turns up the **pirate chest**: a
+  **ship's compass** (what the boat will need to sail to the Highlands: the
+  next crossing's gate, J2), a **spyglass** (zooms your view while held),
+  **pirate gold**, and a **cutlass** (quick, harder-hitting than the iron
+  spear).
+- **One treasure each, each in its own place** (online too): the wreck's
+  chest gives each player their own map, once, and each map's X is
+  somewhere different: picked from the world's seed and the player's id
+  (so it's fixed for them), among dry, gentle spots in the Cove's hills
+  away from the other places. You only see your own mound; the server knows
+  every player's spot and what each has found, and checks the right one
+  when you dig.
+- **Gold** is a **trophy you can place** in your hut (a heap of coins) for
+  now; what else it's for waits until there's a trader.
+- **The drowned crew:** the treasure's guards (the Cove's barrow guards).
+  Two or three rise from the shallows round the dig at night, or as the
+  chest comes up, for whoever's digging. Slow, hit hard, unafraid of fire,
+  they drag at you in the water.
+- **Crabs** on the beach at dusk (pinch if trodden on; food), and **gulls**,
+  thieves like the crows (fish off drying racks, things dropped on sand).
+- **The boat** (J2's first part): driftwood, seagrass rope and pitch (pine
+  resin and salt), at a workbench, placed at the pier. One each, moored,
+  yours and your friends'. Setting sail says the Highlands are uncharted
+  for now.
+- **Report a bug** in the pause menu, and a short playtest guide.
+- Order: set pieces per land, the wreck and map, the dig and the drowned
+  crew, crabs and gulls, the boat, report a bug; then 0.6.0 (protocol 18).
+
+**Built (Nov 2026), and where it differs from the plan above:**
+- Places: `"places"` in `data/worldlets/*.json` (`world.has_place()`); the
+  Cove's extra wildlife in `"wildlife"` (`world.has_wildlife()`).
+- The wreck (`scripts/world/wreck.gd`): the sea chest gives a map, 4 nails
+  and 2 salt (no rope or coins: gold comes from the dig). Each X is one of
+  12 hiding spots picked from the seed (`world.treasure_spots()`), chosen
+  per player by their id.
+- The dig (`treasure.gd`, `treasure_mound.gd`, `crew_site.gd`): 18 HP, any
+  pickaxe; three drowned rise round the mound itself (not from the
+  shallows), at the first blow by night or as the chest comes up by day.
+- Crabs (`crab.gd`, `shore.gd`): up to 5 per player on the sand from 17:30
+  to 06:30, pinch for 5 within about 2 m, let you go past 6 m; crab meat.
+  Gulls (`gull.gd`, `thieves.gd`): food on the sand, and fish on a smoking
+  rack; they take one and fly off (only food, not tools left on the sand).
+- The boat (`moorings.gd`, `boat.gd`, `mooring_post.gd`): a rowing boat
+  item (12 driftwood, 4 rope, 3 pitch, 6 nails), tied up at the post at the
+  end of the pier rather than placed freely: 6 berths, one boat each, saved
+  with the Cove. Pine resin drops from felled pines in every land.
+- Report a bug (`scripts/core/bug_report.gd`): opens the repo's new-issue
+  page filled in (the tester posts it, signed in); no token in the game.
+  Testers' notes: `docs/PLAYTEST.md`.
+
 ## 6. Done already (groundwork)
 - `world.water_at(x, z)` returns `{type, surface, depth}` for the lake and
   the sea, and fishing uses it instead of `terrain.water_level`.

+##
+## A server's world can span several lands (worldlets). The server players
+## join, on the usual port, runs the world's home land (the Valley) and is the
+## **hub**. When someone first heads for another land, the hub starts a
+## **land server** for it: the same game, headless, on the next port (24243
+## for the Cove, and so on), with `--land cove`. It shares the hub's config
+## and world folder (worlds/<world>/: that land's state is
+## worldlets/<land>.json, and characters are in players/, shared by all), so
+## a character saved by one is loaded by the next. A land server stops a
+## couple of minutes after its last player leaves, and whenever the hub
+## stops.
+##
+## Hub and land servers talk over a private TCP link on 127.0.0.1 (one JSON
+## object per line), never seen from outside. J3a carries: the land's
+## "ready" (listening), its player count, the hub's clock, one-time passes
+## for players crossing over, and asks about the tunnel.
+##
+## A crossing (PlayerNet, server side): the player's character is saved with
+## where they're heading; the hub (or the land server, back the other way)
+## makes a one-time pass, makes sure the other server is up, and sends the
+## player's game `{port, pass, land}`. The game reconnects there with the
+## pass (Net.join(..., pass)), and that server lets them straight in.
