arena

Emberfront itself — the rift canyon the match is fought in.

What it does

arena

Emberfront itself — the rift canyon the match is fought in.

arena.build() raises the whole place from code: the two basalt lane shelves, the river of exposed melt between them, the canyon walls and their broken rim, the Nexus / Gate / Altar at each end, the eruption on the horizon, the light, the falling ash and the embers climbing out of the rift. arena.teardown() takes all of it away again.

Every dimension is read from game.rules (K.arena, K.points, K.palette), so the canyon can never disagree with the lane the creeps march down. Nothing is written into the scene file: each piece is spawned as a temporary entity under one root named EmberfrontArena, and building twice leaves exactly one canyon.

The scene's six anchor entities — EmberNexus, AshNexus, EmberGate, AshGate, EmberAltar, AshAltar — keep their authored transforms. build() only takes their placeholder cubes off and raises a real structure on the spot, so every other slice still finds the world by them.

Surfaces

AssetWhat it is
art/cinder_basalt.shaderProcedural triplanar basalt: ash on the ledges, a crust that breaks into cracks, grain you only see up close.
art/emberfront_lava.shaderThe melt. Flows along the canyon, crusts over as it cools, tears open along the shear.
art/basalt_ground.materialThe lane shelves.
art/basalt_cliff.materialWalls, buttresses, talus, the mountain beyond.
art/lava_flow.materialThe rift.
art/dark_iron.materialThe worked metal of the structures.
art/obsidian.materialCut stone: rift banks, plinths, standing stones.
art/ember_core.material / art/ash_core.materialThe two sides' burning hearts — orange for Ember, violet for Ash.
art/ash_mote.material / art/ember_mote.materialWhat the falling ash and the rising embers are made of.

Air and grade

A HeightFog volume pools ash in the canyon and warms toward the sun. The screen-space chain is bloom → color_correction → tonemap (ACES) → vignette; teardown() removes all four.

Interface

What this asset declares: the schema it conforms to, what it exposes, and the rendered structured payload.

zero/source-extract/v2

rng(seed: number) → void

small helpers A fixed-seed LCG: the canyon has to come out identical on every peer that builds it, so the rubble can never be `math.random`.

The mountain the canyon is cut into: cones far enough out to sit behind the walls, so the canyon has somewhere to be.

buildNexus(lane: string) → void

A Nexus: a stepped basalt drum, a ring of shards, and the burning heart the lane is defending. Whatever reaches it takes lives off the side that owns it.

lanestring

buildGate(lane: string) → void

A Gate: the arch a lane's creeps walk out of. The curtain between the piers is the only thing in the canyon that is not rock.

argtypedescription
lanestring

buildAltar(lane: string) → void

An Altar: where a commander spends gold. Standing stones around a bowl of fire, set just off the lane so it never blocks the march.

buildAir( ) → void

air: the light the rift throws, the ash coming down, the embers going up

buildSky( ) → void

sky, grade

stripMarkers( ) → void

Take the marker cubes off the six anchors. The entities and their transforms stay exactly as the scene authored them — every other slice reads them.
