# ============================================================================
# collide.ludic — the static colliders of the world as circles on the ground
# plane (a trunk, a boulder, a tent), sorted once into 16 m cells over the whole
# terrain. A moving thing asks col_resolve for its position pushed out of every
# circle it overlaps: three by three cells, a few dozen tests, no broad phase
# needed. Float bits, metres.
