As in the previous batches. Scripts launching Chrome themselves go from
99 to 8 (all outside this conversion), fixed pauses from 86 to 69 and
Cesium-only reads from 75 to 46; the QA harness baseline records them.
Navara now matches Cesium where the review found it diverging: a flight
holds the camera inputs, camera.changed counts turns as Cesium does,
render requests made during a frame survive it, follow pinches zoom,
ground widths follow the pixel ratio and Cyber sonar reaches glyph caches
and models. On Cesium, a staged imagery swap keeps loading tiles, setView
replaces a running flight, and a cleared weather detail goes away.
The contract gains MoverSet.failed, maps.terrainRevision,
render.maxTextureSize and surface.sampleTerrainMostDetailed on every
engine, so layers retry failed models, key road heights by terrain,
size weather textures to the GPU and place Bhote Koshi cards on detailed
terrain.
Engine switches keep the live view, follows, focus, layer options and
cards: a pick hands over the exact pose, applies no address options and
pans no carried-over card; a history visit still applies its entry.
Layers put GhostMaps pins, cable landings, OSM Places and directions on
the measured surface without per-frame sampling, draw the Cockpit contact
dot, hide disabled CCTV on attach, and keep ALPR running outside secure
contexts. KML imports draw raised polygon fills, rotated and coloured
ground overlays and north-referenced icon headings, and report files
with nothing to draw.
QA scripts read the contract instead of Cesium internals (test:track is
109/109 again), wait for the camera to rest before clicking, and give
cold switches and parked engines realistic time. Docs follow the code.
Preserve the camera, map source and layer selection across engine sessions. Restore the previous engine if startup fails and retain local history navigation.
Seven QA scripts hard-coded macOS Google Chrome. They now share chromeExecutablePath(): PUPPETEER_EXECUTABLE_PATH when set, then macOS Chrome when installed, otherwise Puppeteer's managed browser. The cables screenshot path is built with fileURLToPath so it works on Windows. qa-overlay-baseline keeps its fixed Chrome because its baselines record the executable.

## Changes
Follow-up to #596 from the owner's look: a parked transit vehicle turned with the camera. Moving vehicles project their world course into screen space on every camera change, but a vehicle that had never moved on screen could have no display course and was skipped by that pass, leaving its billboard at a screen-anchored angle; rotation invalidation also relied on camera events that a pose change without a revision could miss. Now every visible vehicle with any usable course (derived, held, or the feed's reported bearing) is re-projected at the existing 5 Hz cadence on camera pose changes. Moving playback and the 120°/s course limiter are unchanged.
## How it was verified
- `npm run format:check` (861 files), `npm run check:boundaries` (109 groups), `npm test` (4,068 passing), `npm run build` clean; tracking regression 109/109 in a real browser on Google 3D tiles.
- Node tests: a stationary vehicle with a held course, and one with only a reported bearing, under a camera at heading 0° then 90° yield screen rotations 90° apart.
- Browser harness (`scripts/qa-transit.mjs`, keyed on Google 3D tiles): a parked scripted vehicle orbited by 90° rotates 90.000° on screen; a moving vehicle's rotation still matches its rendered travel; both checks fail on main and pass here. Full keyed run: 201 pass; the nine failures are the per-frame allocation gate already recorded as a follow-up and threshold-edge readability lines on the Boston matrix, both unchanged from #596.
