Cockpit entry no longer needs Contacts or both flight feeds: a civilian
aircraft needs Live Flights, a military one Military Flights. Contacts and
every other layer can be turned on or off before or during a session, and
turning off the ridden layer ends it. A Context mode change in flight still
blocks entry.
When the other air feed is off, Live Signals and the Contact card say
FLIGHTS FEED OFF or MILITARY FEED OFF · PARTIAL PICTURE instead of
presenting a partial picture as complete. Voice refuses entry with
subject-layer-off rather than contacts-inactive, and its tool description
says Contacts is not required.
Double-clicking the followed aircraft enters Cockpit through the same gate.
The Cockpit takes the scene's double-click before Cesium's stock handler,
which would otherwise untrack a followed aircraft whose model is a
primitive. The entry also shows under the Intel HUD readout, sharing the
Contacts button's face. A test keeps the classes the Cockpit adds to the
body from matching another element's rule.
Brings the Active Fires intensity work: the FRP filter, the confidence
switch, the ember-to-white-hot ramp and the far-zoom heatmap.
The filter, switch and ramp work on both engines. The heatmap drapes on
Cesium through the layer's Cesium renderer, which also fades the markers
across the hand-off; it goes with that renderer on an engine switch and is
built again on the next Cesium globe. Navara keeps heat cells for the far
bands, now coloured on the FRP ramp.
Main's new layers (drone airspace, OSM places, sea marks, ski pistes) are
Cesium-only for now: they join the layer directory and the Cesium catalog,
are built afresh for each Cesium catalog, and show as unavailable on Navara.
The zoom-out guard is a scene part that attaches to Cesium globes only. The
awareness range pulses and their echoes draw on Cesium through the awareness
display's viewer; Navara keeps the plain range ring. Camera-input wakes go
through the display, and the analyst keeps the session-owned memory with
main's area presentation. A disposed voice runner aborts work in flight, and
an engine switch still keeps the last answer.
Modules main added that read Cesium while they load (zoomOutGuard,
awarenessEcho, the ground-sampling scratch in localGeojsonCore) now build
those values on first use or use src/geo, so a Navara page still starts
without the SDK. The OSM view box reads the engine's view rectangle.
Main grew its own main chunk by 93,873 bytes gzip-9 since the merge base, so
the baseline is raised to the merged size.
The long soak's heap slope counted the per-aircraft dead-reckoning history (POSITION_HISTORY_LIMIT fixes for 10 000 aircraft, about 14 MiB over the first 2.5 min of polls) as switch growth: a run with the same workload and no switches grows as much and then levels off. With --assert the soak now waits until the flights feed has been read more times than the history keeps before it switches; over 500 switches the heap then grows 1.07 KiB per switch.
qa-strict-context-loss records, only when no non-blank frame came, how many frames the running and the watched engine drew in 3 s and how much of the last one differs from its first pixel.
index.html no longer loads /cesium/Cesium.js and widgets.css: the Cesium scene loads both before it builds its viewer. A cold Navara start requests nothing of the Cesium library again, and qa-strict-cold-chunks asserts that without the known-gap allowance. The strict harness puts an accessor in place of the Cesium global on every page and fails a scenario that reads it before Cesium.js has run; GEV_QA_CESIUM_TRAP=record lists every such read site instead.
Every Cesium read that a Navara page made was surveyed with the strict acceptance (GEV_QA_CESIUM_TRAP=record). Math on those paths now uses src/geo: screen annotations, weather and wind center readings, cyclone picks, scene data pack polygons and images (new navaraGeometry.js), the awareness subject, the orbit offset of camera verbs, voice frame_overhead, the agent world packet and Directions colours and ground picks. The celestial ring's Sun and Moon come from a bit-identical port of Cesium's Simon1994 model, JulianDate and TEME rotation (src/geo/simon1994.js, julianDate.js, transforms.js); a Cesium globe still applies its ICRF rotation once loaded.
Traffic, Street Level, the Nepal event and locator and geo import build on Cesium's math or entity model on either globe; their enable (or the import) now loads the SDK first through src/app/loadCesium.js, synchronously when it is already there. A production page guards the global so a missed read is reported and starts the load. No module reads Cesium while it loads (scripts/check-cesium-load-time.mjs, run by npm test). Cesium.js is still loaded by index.html here.
The changelog fragment named share-link token 6 (sea marks); the layer
reserves 8. CURRENT-STATE said voice could toggle and query the layer and
listed it among the analyst record sources, but it is in VOICE_OFF_LAYERS.
Say voice is off for now, and that the layer covers FAA prohibited and
restricted special-use airspace only, not the UAS Facility Map / LAANC grids
or TFRs. A test pins these claims to the token ledger and the voice manifest.
The look's sun follows the page clock, so the frame these checks compare was as bright as the hour they ran at: in the acceptance run the half-strength bloom changed the frame by 0.29 against 3.5 earlier, and at dusk the full bloom changes nothing (luma 13).
Measured over the second half the heap still grew about 20 KiB per switch in the acceptance run (117.8 to 123.8 MiB from switch 250 to 500), so the narrower window did not separate warm-up from growth; the original check stays.
Under the soak workload V8's compiled code and the layers' caches grow for about 250 switches and then the heap is flat (121.4, 121.7, 120.4, 119.1 MiB after 250 to 400 switches), so a line fitted from switch 20 measured the warm-up. Over the second half the threshold stays 10 KiB per switch; the run before the layer effect fix measures 19 KiB there.
From the whole-globe view the camera could end up facing empty space with
only stars on screen. Cesium's free look (Shift+drag) turns the camera in
place, and from 18,000 km the planet's edge is only about 15 degrees from
nadir, so a few drags turned it out of frame. The rolled pose was then
saved into the share hash, so a reload or shared link opened on stars too.
- Allow free look only below 1,000 km. Orbit, tilt and zoom are unchanged.
- Measure how much of the frame shows the planet's surface by casting a
32x18 grid of view rays at the WGS84 ellipsoid. While the scope mask is
on (the default) only the rays inside its keyhole count, since the mask
hides or dims the rest of the frame.
- When a camera move ends above 1,000 km with no ray on the surface, turn
straight down at the same position and heading. Limb glow and a sliver
up to about one grid cell thick can count as out of view. The end of a
move comes from Cesium's moveEnd and from a check of its own that
samples the pose every 250 ms after moveStart and acts once it has held
for half a second: at some of these poses the camera drifts by a
rounding error every frame, so Cesium never sees it stop and never
raises moveEnd. The zoom-out guard from #1522 keeps wheel and pinch
zoom-outs in view; this catches the other ways a move can end looking
away, such as a saved or shared view that did, or a
drag that Cesium turns into an in-place look below its 7,500 km
trackball height (one that starts on the stars, or a tilt drag with the
screen centre off the planet). Views with more surface, tracked or
locked cameras and the 2D and Columbus modes are left alone.
- Voice tilt and in-place turns of a free 3D globe camera above 1,000 km
stop when about a tenth of the frame still shows the planet (or about as
much as it showed when it started, two grid cells of sampling noise
allowed), never below about 1% of the visible frame; a view that already
shows less only keeps or gains what it has. A turn that cannot go half a
degree further without crossing that limit is refused with a reason
instead of reported as done, and a turn it accepts turns at least that
half degree. A turn that keeps or gains surface is not refused, even
after the window has been resized, except that near the limit, where the
planet's edge crosses the sample grid, sampling wobble can occasionally
refuse one (most often above about 15,000 km and on phone or ultrawide
frames); nothing then turns away from the planet. A turn that starts
where the last voice turn left the camera keeps that turn's limit, or a
higher one if the planet now fills more, so repeating the request does
not take any more; once anything else has moved or turned the camera, a
turn is measured from what is on screen. A request made while the camera
is tracked is judged by the pose voice's release of the follow camera
will leave, before that release, so a refused turn keeps the tracking.
The frame measure and the look-step limit live in src/globeInView.js,
shared by the viewer and the voice camera verbs.
qa-strict-prod-smoke opens the keyless vite preview on each engine, switches once and fails on any page error. qa-strict-cold-chunks reports Cesium.js at a cold Navara start as a known gap instead of a failure.
This reverts ae13a56f. In the production build every 'cesium' import is the global that Cesium.js defines; with the script loaded only when a Cesium globe started, modules evaluated at boot (cesiumConstants, annotationEngine) threw ReferenceError and neither engine started. A cold Navara start loading Cesium.js stays a known gap.
Re-pin the Realtime tool payload hash for the merged tree (voice geometry plus pitchDeg). To fit main's 55,500 prompt ceiling with Overpass on, the pitchDeg schema drops its -90..90 range (the runner already clamps to -89..-5, now pinned by a test) and its description is shorter. The Overpass prompt measures 55,492.
The sprite and point mover shaders rate each contact by its anchor against the sweep with the cyberSonar.js sampler maths; the engine sonar scene feeds the theme, settings and shared sweep angle each drawn frame and keeps the fleet cadence only while the sweep runs over contacts.
The zone was a flat disc at ellipsoid height in Navara's opaque scene: it floated over low pads and sank under raised ground or 3D tiles, with hard edges and an unlit rim. A screen-space pass now paints the ground pixels within the radius of the pad from the scene depth, as Cesium's GroundPrimitive classifies them, using one style shared by both engines (LAUNCH_PAD_ZONE_STYLE).
Picks up #1527, which restores the 97 format-scope entries an earlier merge
dropped; this branch had kept the same 97. The resolved list is main's plus
this PR's 12 test and helper files, 1,222 paths, all present.
The cockpit's weather feed moves out of the Cesium cloud pass and serves both: Cesium keeps its own cloud canvas, an engine with its own clouds takes their cover from the same observations, with no second WebGL canvas.
