Orkuncakilkaya 031137a5fa feat(render3d): rain that leaves something behind
Rain fell and the ground did not change: the weather was a curtain of particles in front
of a dry valley.

u_wet, 0 dry to 1 soaked, does the three things a wet surface does. Darkens the albedo.
Drops the roughness hard - which is what makes a soaked meadow read as soaked rather than
merely dark, because the sky glances off it. And pools: water finds the low places and
flat ground holds what a slope sheds, so the puddle mask is the macro noise the materials
already use gated on slope, and a puddle takes the world's up for its normal rather than
the ground's relief.

It joins the shore's existing wet band rather than fighting it - the same term from a
different cause.

34.1% of the frame changes between dry and soaked. GL 7.1 s either way over 400 frames.

Changesets

A changeset is one small Markdown file describing a single user-facing change, dropped in this directory. ludic-dev release consumes every changeset here into a new CHANGELOG.md section, bumps VERSION, and deletes the consumed files.

Format

bump: minor
type: feat
One or more lines describing the change, in the past-agnostic imperative used in
the changelog. Markdown is fine.
  • bump: — major, minor, or patch (SemVer). The release version is bumped by the highest level among the pending changesets (unless ludic-dev release <level> overrides it).
  • type: — the Conventional Commit type (feat, fix, perf, docs, …). It decides which group the change lands in: feat → Features, fix → Fixes, perf → Performance, and so on, in that order. A type with no known heading gets one named after itself.

Writing the body

The body is markdown and reaches the changelog as markdown: it becomes one list item, with continuation lines indented to stay inside it. Nested bullets, blank lines between paragraphs and inline code all survive.

bump: minor
type: feat
**Tiled map support** — load and draw Tiled maps.

- **TMX/TSX** — the XML formats, decoded to the same intermediate as JSON.
- **Collision** — the `collision` layer projects onto the engine tilemap.

Lead with the thing that changed, not with the mechanism. A reader scanning the release should be able to stop after your first clause.

Adding one

Create a file with a short, unique name, e.g. changes/regex-namespace.md. Any filename works except this README.md, which the release step always skips.

Preview how the next release will read before cutting it — this writes nothing:
