Mythic Masters: hill-climb the native plants and scenery (owner says 4/10, aim for 7) #3312
Description
Part of #2943 (graphics lane). Follows #3288 (plants grown in Blender) and #3296 (first headless look).
Where it stands: the owner rates the native plants and scenery 4 / 10. Target: 7 / 10.
The loop
Each round, one worker:
- Takes shots with the recipe in
apps/mythic-masters/docs/shots-2026-11-02-flora/README.md(bun run probe, journey first,world.beatto open regions). Same spots and hour every round, so rounds compare. - Picks the one or two worst things in the shots, fixes them (spec in
flora/<id>.json+bun run flora, or placement and LOD insrc/world/flora.ts), and shoots again. - Puts before/after shots in
docs/shots-<date>-flora/and opens one PR against main. Its body says "Part of #". - Comments here with the shots and a guessed score, then checks in with the owner every 3 rounds for a real score.
Starting list (from the 2026-11-02 shots)
- Hard edge where the Southwest desert meets dense green conifer forest: no blend between regions.
- The Pine Barrens floor is one repeated tuft spread evenly. Clump it and vary it, and leave bare sand between.
- Grown trees read as lollipops at mid distance: canopy blobs on bare poles.
- Far cards and near models: check for popping at
LOD_R(60 m) while walking. - Only two of the seven playable biomes have been looked at. Shoot the other five (bayou, north woods, plains, rainforest, high mountains) and list what's wrong with each.
Rules
- Don't redo Mythic Masters: graphics hill climb round 5 #3224 (smooth normals, fewer pebbles).
- Keep the frame rate. Note plants/far counts from
world.state()in each PR. - Own mechanics and looks, no commercial game names.

Score: 2/10 (target 7)
Reset by the owner (2026-11-05): every hill climb's score is halved to match what they expect, the owner's own numbers included; this one was 4. Each round reports half from here on.

Score: 2/10 (target 7)
Round 1, PR #3837 (green, awaiting merge): Pine Barrens grass grows in tussocks with bare sand between, instead of one tuft spread evenly. It uses
tussockandclumpedinsrc/world/flora.ts, plus a per-biomeclump: the Pine Barrens and the desert 1, the mountains 0.7, everything else 0.3. It's placement only, and the counts held (2388 near, 3211 far). My guess is +0.5 on the old scale, 2 to 2.25 halved; the owner's 2 stands until they look. Before and after shots and a probe body that gets past the Book's opening talk are indocs/shots-2026-11-06-flora/.Next: the trees that read as lollipops at mid distance (canopy blobs on bare poles), then the hard edge where the desert meets the conifer forest. The owner check-in is due after round 3.
