+# Map Pipeline
+
+How to make a new map, and what the generator puts in the scene for you.
+
+---
+
+## One-time setup
+
+Open **`9Player`** and run **`TD → Map Pipeline → Build Core Prefabs From Open Scene`**.
+
+This reads the fully-wired reference scene and writes:
+
+| Output | What it holds |
+|---|---|
+| `Assets/_Project/Prefabs/MatchCore/MatchServices.prefab` | Every map-independent, non-networked service |
+| `Assets/_Project/Prefabs/MatchCore/MatchNetwork.prefab` | The six scene-placed `NetworkBehaviour`s |
+| `Assets/_Project/Settings/MapTemplate.asset` | Prefab references, terrain defaults, starter-layout proportions |
+
+It **copies live components** rather than rebuilding them from an asset scan. `AssetDatabase.FindAssets`
+order isn't guaranteed stable across machines or re-imports, and several of these arrays double as
+network identity — `EnemyUpgradePool.options` indices *are* card network ids, and
+`TowerPlacementManager.towerDefinitions` indices *are* `TowerTypeId`. Two people generating the same
+map could commit different orders, and *that* desyncs a host from a client. Copying sidesteps it, and
+gives each new map the same known-good content as the reference.
+
+> Maps having **different** catalogs from each other is fine and supported — every peer loads the same
+> scene, and `PlayerTowerDeck.ServerInitialize` clears the deck at match start. Per-map enemy rosters
+> are a matter of assigning a different `RunDefinition` on `_MatchNetwork/RunState`.
+
+> The reference scene's contents aren't modified, but Unity marks it dirty. **Don't save it.**
+
+Re-run this any time the shared boilerplate changes in a way the prefab should pick up.
+
+---
+
+## Making a map
+
+**`TD → New Map...`**
+
+Fill in name, player count, and size. The dialog validates the starter layout live and tells you the
+exact width or height to use if the shape can't hold one.
+
+On Create it does all of this:
+
+1. Creates and saves the scene in `Assets/_Project/Scenes/Levels/`
+2. Instantiates `_MatchServices` (**linked** prefab instance) and `_MatchNetwork` (**unpacked**)
+3. Creates the `LevelData` asset and assigns it to **both** `LevelAuthoring.targetAsset` *and*
+   `LevelLoader.level`
+4. Generates a bakeable starter volume layout
+5. Creates a `Terrain` on the `TerrainGeometry` layer, sized to the map plus a skirt
+6. Registers the scene in **Build Settings**
+7. Appends the `LevelData` to the **`MapRegistry`** in `MainMenu.unity`
+8. Runs the bake
+
+Steps 3, 6 and 7 are the ones that used to fail silently — a map missing any of them looks fine in
+the editor and breaks only at match start, or just never appears in the lobby.
+
+A generated map bakes with **zero warnings** as long as you filled in author and description.
+
+---
+
+## What you get, and where to edit it
+
+Four roots instead of the ~30 the hand-authored maps carry:
+
+```
+_LevelAuthoring     ← yours: shape the volumes here
+_MatchServices      ← shared prefab: don't edit per-map (except LevelLoader.level)
+_MatchNetwork       ← the six NetworkBehaviours, unpacked
+Terrain             ← yours: sculpt here
+```
+
+`_MatchServices` is a **linked prefab instance**, so fixing something in
+`MatchServices.prefab` fixes it in every map at once. The one field that is legitimately a
+per-instance override is `LevelLoader.level`.
+
+**Never press "Apply All" on the `_MatchServices` instance** — that would push this map's
+`LevelData` into the shared prefab.
+
+`_MatchNetwork` is unpacked deliberately: NGO treats in-scene placed `NetworkObject`s that are prefab
+instances differently from loose ones, and unpacking keeps generated scenes structurally identical to
+hand-authored ones. The cost is that changes to `MatchNetwork.prefab` don't propagate to maps already
+created — there are only three asset references in it (`RunDefinition`, `GoldConfig`,
+`EnemyScalingConfig`), so fix those by hand if they ever change.
+
+---
+
+## The starter layout
+
+Player bands stacked south → north, full map width:
+
+```
+        ┌─────────── Goal ───────────┐        north
+        │        Player N band       │
+        │  ····· leak gate ·····     │
+        │      Player N-1 band       │
+        │  ····· leak gate ·····     │
+        │        Player 1 band       │
+        │      [Player 1 spawner]    │        south
+        └── MapArea (margin border) ─┘
+```
+
+Enemies spawn at the south edge of their owner's band and walk north. Each band leaks through a
+one-tile gate into the next; the northernmost band is goal-adjacent instead of having a leak.
+
+Proportions (margin, band depth, gate width, goal size, terrain skirt and carve depth) all live on
+**`MapTemplate.asset`** — tune them there, not in code.
+
+---
+
+## Build Access: one maze each, or one maze together
+
+`_LevelAuthoring → Rules → Build Access` is a per-map choice. Also offered in the New Map dialog.
+
+| Mode | Meaning |
+|---|---|
+| `OwnerOnly` | Default. A player builds only inside their own `PlayerZoneVolume`. |
+| `Shared` | Any player builds on any Buildable tile — the whole map is one cooperative maze. |
+
+**Ownership doesn't disappear in Shared mode.** `OwnerGrid` still drives leak attribution, camera
+start position, builder spawn point, and minimap tinting; zones still own their spawners and leak
+exits. The only thing that lifts is the placement restriction. That's why this is a per-map enum and
+not a change to how maps are authored — a Shared map is authored exactly like an OwnerOnly one.
+
+**Towers still belong to whoever paid.** Sell, upgrade and paint stay owner-gated in both modes, so a
+teammate can't sell your tower out of the lane you put it in.
+
+Both modes route through `LevelLoader.HasBuildPermission`, which the client's ghost preview and the
+server's authoritative check both call — they can't drift apart and show a white ghost that then gets
+rejected.
+
+> **Shared mode widens path validation.** Under `OwnerOnly` a player can only strand their own
+> spawners, so `TowerPlacementManager.CheckPathValidity` checks one zone. Under `Shared` anyone can
+> wall off anyone's lane, so it checks *every* zone's spawners — otherwise a player could leave a
+> teammate's enemies with no route to any exit. Cost is one BFS per spawner per placement attempt
+> rather than one per placement; placements are already throttled to `requestsPerFrame`.
+
+Changing the mode on an existing map just needs a re-bake.
+
+### Leak exits are optional on Shared maps
+
+Bake rule **P5-8** ("every zone must have an outgoing leak or be goal-adjacent") is **skipped on
+Shared maps**, so you can delete the `LeakExitVolume`s entirely. Every other leak rule is conditional
+on a leak existing, so they're vacuously satisfied at zero.
+
+That's safe because leak exits do almost nothing at runtime. `PathfindingService.ComputePath` takes no
+destination — enemies always path to `LevelData.Goals`, and the route through a gate is *emergent*
+from walkability, never directed. `LeakExitData.NormalizedWeight` is written by the bake and read
+nowhere. Leak *attribution* runs off `OwnerGrid`, not leak volumes, so it keeps working. The safety
+property P5-8 protected is enforced more strictly by **P5-4**, which BFSes every spawner to the exit
+set — and with no leaks present that set is the goal tiles, which is exactly the right requirement.
+
+> **Zones must then be directly adjacent.** A `LeakExitVolume`'s tiles are walkable; a bare gap
+> between two zones is not. Delete the leaks without closing the gap and the bands become
+> disconnected — P5-4 hard-errors and P5-11 warns, so the bake catches it loudly rather than shipping
+> a map whose enemies can't move.
+
+New Map handles this for you: choosing **Shared** generates bands butted directly together with no
+gate rows and no leak volumes. Choosing **OwnerOnly** generates the one-tile gates.
+
+---
+
+## Changing the Quick Play map
+
+Quick Start skips the lobby and loads **`MapRegistry.Default`**, which is the *first valid entry* in
+the `Maps` array — not a separate setting.
+
+Open `MainMenu`, select the `MapRegistry` GameObject, and drag the map you want to element **0**.
+Entries with an empty `MapName` or `ScenePath` are skipped, so "first" means first *usable*.
+
+New maps are **appended** to the array, so creating one never silently changes what Quick Play loads.
+Reordering is deliberate.
+
+---
+
+## Things worth knowing
+
+- **Walkability is the union of the gameplay volumes**, not something you paint. Walls are the
+  *absence* of a `PlayerZone` / `Spawner` / `LeakExit` / `Goal` volume. `MapAreaVolume` tiles are
+  deliberately **not** walkable — that volume only bounds camera pan and builder movement.
+- **Terrain must stay on the `TerrainGeometry` layer.** The builder's ground raycast and spell
+  targeting both filter on it; on `Default` the builder silently walks at Y=0.
+- **Terrain visuals have no relationship to the grid.** Nothing validates that the hills you sculpt
+  match the volumes you placed. That correspondence is yours to keep.
+- **Volumes must be axis-aligned and unit-scaled.** Rotation is a hard bake error; non-unit
+  `Transform.Scale` is a warning. Size volumes with `BoxCollider.Size`, or use the
+  **Resize Volume Edge** scene tool.
+- `MatchRules.MaxPlayers` is **3**. Larger player counts bake fine but no lobby can fill them yet.
