What it does

game.gameplay.watchers

NPC behaviour and vision for Sneaky Pooper, driven by the GameDirector. At level start, every sp_role = npc marker becomes a watcher. Tower lifeguards sweep, patrol lifeguards and judges walk their sp_route waypoints, swimmers paddle inside their pool footprint and glance around, and sunbathers and bartenders glance. Each watcher carries a translucent yellow vision cone from game.gameplay.fx. Sight is tested by range plus cone angle, and line of sight is blocked by the level's hide cylinders (sp_radius) and by colliders (Physics.raycast). The look comes from game.characters.npcs.dress, which is a no-op when missing. API: build(level, root, ctx), update(w, dt, ctx) -> seesGary, setVisible, cleanup, accuse(w, x, z).

game.gameplay.watchers — NPC behaviour + vision for Sneaky Pooper. Every `sp_role = npc` marker of a level becomes a watcher: tower lifeguards sweep, patrol lifeguards / judges walk their `sp_route` waypoints, swimmers paddle around their pool and glance, sunbathers / bartenders glance. Each carries a translucent yellow vision-cone mesh (game.gameplay.fx) and answers "do I see Gary?" with a range + angle test and line of sight blocked by the level's `hide` entities (cylinders of sp_radius) and by colliders (raycast). The look comes from game.characters.npcs.dress when it exists.

# game.gameplay.fx Runtime visuals for the gameplay slice: the unit vision-cone mesh (translucent yellow, `game.gameplay.materials.vision_cone`), the glowing blind-spot ring (`blindspot_ring`), the floater (evidence) and the thrown rubber duck. Prefers `game.characters.npcs.floater` / `.duck` when they exist; otherwise spawns a plain stand-in. Also carries the small quaternion/yaw helpers the director and watchers share.

Did the part work as advertised when consumers tried to drop it in. Separate from upvotes: those are taste; this is "did it function".
