Chat sits next to the mic in the command dock. Replies are silent and never
request the microphone; the first message connects with the selected provider
and runs the same map actions as voice through each provider's text API
(OpenAI OPENAI_CHAT_MODEL, Gemini GEMINI_CHAT_MODEL via generateContent, which
never starts Live). Only one mode runs at a time.
- Chat panel rendered by the voice control presenter: conversation, recent and
quick-command suggestions, Up/Down history, attachments (map-layer
references or small UTF-8 text files, sent only with the message)
- Chat and voice panels sit above the dock or dock into the right rail's
column; minimized bars sit centred above the dock, and height animates on
swaps
- A centred panel steps down to its bar for the Location and Visual Presets
trays without moving focus, rests above an open tray, and docks right while
expanded over one; it returns to the centre once the trays close
- Minimized voice previews the last sentence from each side; the empty Voice
Preview suggests things to say
- Settings opened from chat keep chat's frame and show the shared AI provider
and quick commands; voice Settings show Back to voice
- Closing chat ends a typed session; the voice panel's close turns voice off
- The dock widens its voice control for the chat button and restyles its
wings, which show icons only at 900px and below; assistant panels share the
left panels' glass, and Cyber keeps its own surfaces
- Server text-chat handlers with body, time and per-IP limits
(GEV_RATELIMIT_*_CHAT_PER_MIN), documented in SECURITY.md; tests and all
eleven locales

The catalog stored the designator on satrec.intldesg for
internationalDesignatorYear, while the active-TLE lookup parsed the same
columns with tleLineLaunchYear. Each catalog entry now keeps launchYear from
tleLineLaunchYear, which moves to src/sources/tle.js beside the other TLE
field readers, and internationalDesignatorYear goes.
A blank designator now reads as an unknown year in both lookups; the
active-TLE lookup read it as 2000.
The traffic timing test starts a Vite server rooted at the package, which
wrote its dependency cache to node_modules/.vite and kept writing after the
server closed. A host running Core's suite then finds files inside Core and
its check refuses them. The server now uses a temporary cache directory,
removed afterwards, and skips dependency discovery, which the SSR-loaded
modules never need.
The HUD place-lookup changelog note credits its PR, #1459.
Directions, the Contacts marker and panel, placed annotation labels, the
drawn-line measure, the Cockpit and formatRouteDistance each chose the unit
and precision on their own, and most chose before rounding: #1450, #1433 and
formatDistanceText or kilometreDigits from src/data/distanceFormat.js, which
cut after rounding. Each keeps its own metre step and rendering.
That also fixes the 10 km cut the Contacts marker and panel, the drawn-line
measure and the Cockpit still had (9,960 m read 10.0 km). The helper returns
kilometres already rounded, so the plain marker and the localized panel no
longer disagree on half-tenths such as 1,450 m.
A negative annotation distance now leaves the label without a distance, and
a drawn line with a coordinate that is not a number shows no measure, rather
than printing 0 m or NaN km. The HUD altitude tag and the spoken view height
keep their own unit choice.
UiRail takes `collapsible`: while no panel on its side is open, each item
shows its icon and label as a pill, and once one opens the labels fold away
to the icon rail, making room for the panel. The tip is not shown while the
label is on screen; the button keeps its accessible name and the visible
label is hidden from assistive technology. The side panel rails turn it on.
Each rail is now placed by its screen-side edge, at the rail clearance, so a
rail that widens grows toward the middle of the screen; collapsed, it sits
6px outside its stack as before.
Since the UI moved to single-file components, every unit-test process
compiled the views it imports from scratch, and the loader ran off-thread
(module.register), adding a round trip to every module a test imports,
including the ones that are not components. Core's unit tests took about
twice as long, and a host running Core's suite on smaller runners passed
its CI time limit.
register-vue now installs synchronous hooks on the loading thread
(module.registerHooks). Compiled components are kept in the system temp
directory, keyed by the file's path and text, the Vue version and the
loader's own code, so each one compiles once across test processes; the
compiler itself loads only on a cache miss. Cached modules run as code, so
the directory is used only when it is a real directory owned by the current
user and writable by no one else; on Windows it lives in the user's local
app data instead of a temp directory that may be shared. The cache never
sits inside the package tree, and GEV_VUE_CACHE=0 compiles every time.
On four cores the full suite went from 441 s to 240 s from a cold cache.
The transit, ALPR, vessel, CCTV and flight/military context fixes each
wrapped 359.5° to north with an inline Math.round(x) % 360. They now call
roundHeadingDegrees in src/data/headingDegrees.js, which also wraps negative
and multi-turn bearings. normalizeHeading moves there with it, and
cockpitMath re-exports it so existing imports keep working. It now adds a
turn only to a negative remainder, so a bearing just under half a degree
keeps its precision.
The awareness, Local ADS-B, cockpit wind, cockpit heading and Street Level
readouts use the same helper. The Cockpit's TRACK ACQUIRED signal rounded
without wrapping and could read COURSE 360°; it now uses
formatHeadingReadout, which shows --- for a track that is not finite.
