Camera: mount the render-kit host with inset:0 (fill #game-display) instead of
min(100%,78vh)+translate(-50%) centering. #game-display is grid-bounded (container is
100vh/overflow-hidden), so filling it gives the camera reliable clientWidth/Height every
frame — fixes the intermittent "player stranded in a top band, black below" off-centering.
Torches (in-game): drop the pack torch SPRITE composite — several sheets place it off-center/
rotated, reading as misaligned. Keep wall base + procedural RK.fx flame: a clean wall-mounted
torch that looks right in every pack.
Wait animations: shrink the juice bursts (18-24 -> 6-7 particles, spread 1.8-2.4 -> 0.6-0.7)
and remove the red death/caught bursts, so a grab/escape reads as a tight glint on the hero
instead of an explosion spraying onto the wall torches.
Text: the block-QUEUE wait runs drawPaymentAnimation (printed "Awaiting payment") and the
payment wait runs the epic scene (printed "Awaiting next block") — the labels were backwards.
Both now derive the label from Game._awaitingPayment so it always matches the real state.
Juice: add a tile-agnostic particle-burst helper (window.FX.sparkle) and fire one-shot bursts
on the dramatic beats — gold on treasure grab, green on escape, red on death/caught — in BOTH
animations. Particle-based, so it is identical and safe in every pack; no-op if FX is absent.
Note: the ROT waiting display is independent of the render-kit pack (always the classic tileset),
so these animations work in all packs but do not visually swap to match a non-original pack.
- Replace asterisk (*) sparkles with floor tiles + bright golden color
- Remove skull emoji (☠) and death particles (% *) - use red flash effect
- Fix monster shadows causing black boxes - use red floor glow instead
- Replace 'ESCAPED!' emoji text with character-by-character transparent rendering
- Use GameTiles.getPlayerTile() instead of hardcoded '@'
- Use GameTiles.getMonsterTile() instead of hardcoded '~'
All tiles now render with proper transparency on floor tile base.
New dedicated animation while waiting for payment:
- Player runs toward BIG pulsating golden treasure
- Player always grabs the treasure (with dramatic pickup moment)
- Monster pack (4-6 monsters) spawns from multiple directions
- 60% chance: player escapes with treasure to the exit
- 40% chance: player gets devoured by monster pack (skull/death effect)
Animation features:
- Massive golden aura around treasure with sparkle ring
- Player glows gold when carrying treasure
- Death particles expand outward on devour
- Monsters converge from edges (left, right, top, bottom)
Existing 'Awaiting next block' animation preserved unchanged.
