* WIP: Add character customization to multiplayer
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Refine character customization: fix message buffering, DRY up code, request-based model
- Register NetworkManager with TickleManager via HandleCreate hook in
LegoOmni::Create(), so packets are processed continuously instead of
buffering between Connect() and OnWorldEnabled()
- Spawn unspawned remote players in OnWorldEnabled() (created before
world was ready)
- Switch to request-based customization: HandleROIClick sends
MSG_CUSTOMIZE to server, server echoes to all peers, HandleCustomize
applies state and plays effects
- DRY up SwitchVariant to delegate LOD cloning to ApplyHatVariant
- Add ApplyChange helper consolidating the switch-on-changeType pattern
- Fix InitFromActorInfo to derive dependent color parts from independent
parts (matching Unpack rules)
- Remove dead code: m_hasBeenTicked, ApplyCustomizeChange on
RemotePlayer, m_localCustomizeState on NetworkManager
- Add null ROI checks in HandleCustomize for unspawned players
- Move MSG_CUSTOMIZE constant to shared protocol.ts

* Fix
* Fix character customization bugs from code review
- BUG-1: Add bounds check in SwitchColor to prevent OOB access from
unvalidated network input (p_partIndex could exceed array bounds)
- BUG-2: Enforce allowRemoteCustomize on receiver side in HandleCustomize
(was only checked on sender side, byppassable by malicious client)
- BUG-3: Document stale-state sound asymmetry for remote targets
- OBS-1: Remove unused bodyVariantIndex from CustomizeState (never
modified, wasted 3 bits per state message)
- NAME-1: Fix p_ prefix convention on ApplyCustomizeChange parameters
Renders a billboard text bubble showing each remote player's display
name. Includes a WASM export to toggle visibility from the frontend.
- Bitmap font renderer generates paletted textures for name labels
- Billboard quad faces the camera each frame via orientation matrix
- Bubble visibility managed globally by NetworkManager toggle
- Fix miniwin D3DRMIMAGE constructor code style (static_cast, const)
- Fix broadcast direction: use IsActive() instead of IsROITurnedAround()
so the negate in BroadcastLocalState only fires when movement inversion
is active, not based on a default-true flag
- Fix vehicle ROI direction for 3rd-person camera: undo Enter()'s
TurnAround on small vehicles so the backward-z convention is preserved.
Vehicles are placed with ROI z opposite to visual forward, and Enter()'s
TurnAround breaks this for 3rd-person rendering. Applied in both
OnActorEnter (entering while 3rd-person enabled) and ReinitForCharacter
(enabling 3rd-person while already on a vehicle)
- Fix vehicle direction on exit: apply extra TurnAround in OnActorExit
when 3rd-person is active, since Exit()'s TurnAround assumes Enter()'s
TurnAround is still in effect
- Add WrappedUpdateWorldData() after manual direction flips in Disable()
and ReinitForCharacter() to keep bounding volumes consistent and prevent
stale world data from causing momentary camera/direction glitches
- Remove unused IsROITurnedAround() method
- Fix data race between WASM exports and game thread
* Add feasibility plan for reusing multiplayer animation system for third-person camera
Evaluates reusing the multiplayer extension's RemotePlayer animation system
(BuildROIMap, AssignROIIndices, ApplyAnimationTransformation) for the local
player to enable a third-person camera mode. Conclusion: feasible with only
3 single-line extension hooks added to core game code.

* WIP: Third-person camera with animation reuse and movement fix
* Fix third-person camera bugs: vehicles, remote facing, emote distortion (#2)
- Fix spawn pose and building re-entry by applying idle frame 0 and
reinitializing on world enable
- Handle vehicle transitions: ride animations for small vehicles,
first-person fallback for large vehicles and helicopter
- Keep vehicle dashboards visible for exit controls
- Disable third-person camera for large vehicles, fix ROI cleanup
- Move HandleActorExit hook to end of Exit() for immediate reinit
- Fix remote player facing 180 degrees wrong by negating direction
in BroadcastLocalState when third-person camera is active
- Fix Hat Tip emote distortion from compounding transform scale by
saving clean parent transform at emote start and restoring after
each frame's animation application
* DRY cleanup for third-person camera branch
- Extract shared DetectVehicleType() to protocol.h/cpp (was duplicated
in ThirdPersonCamera and NetworkManager)
- Remove no-op HandlePostApplyTransform hook chain (called every frame
for every LegoPathActor but did nothing)
- Add ThirdPersonCamera::ClearAnimCaches() helper (pattern repeated 5x)
- Add AnimUtils::EnsureROIMapVisibility() inline helper (loop repeated
5x across ThirdPersonCamera and RemotePlayer)
- Remove redundant static_cast in multiplayer.cpp (UserActor() already
returns LegoPathActor*)
- Delete THIRD_PERSON_CAMERA_ANIMATION_REUSE_PLAN.md development artifact
Move all Emscripten-specific multiplayer code under platforms/emscripten/
and introduce an abstract PlatformCallbacks interface for outbound
notifications, mirroring the existing NetworkTransport pattern. This
removes all #ifdef __EMSCRIPTEN__ blocks from networkmanager.cpp.
