/Users/davidkotnik/.gemini/antigravity/brain/eda9a368-77c1-4f9a-961e-2c9fce4e750e/
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Next Step:** Organize into proper folders:
|
||||
```
|
||||

|
||||
├── bugs/
|

├── items/
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 🔑 **Key Technical Notes:**
|
||||
|
||||
### **NPC Reference System:**
|
||||
- **1 master reference per NPC** in `konsistentno/` folder
|
||||
- From that 1 image, can generate:
|
||||
- Idle poses (4 directions)
|
||||
- Action poses (working, walking, talking)
|
||||
- Dialogue portraits (multiple expressions)
|
||||
- Different camera angles
|
||||
|
||||
### **Tool System Tiers:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
Basic (wood/stone) → Iron → Steel → Gold → Diamond → Legendary (glowing)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Asset Organization Priority:**
|
||||
1. Move all sprites to proper folders
|
||||
2. Regenerate asset manifest
|
||||
3. Update visual asset browser
|
||||
4. Test in-game integration
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🎯 **Next Session Goals:**
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Organize Assets:** Move all generated sprites to correct folders
|
||||
2. **Continue Generation:** More crops, props, UI elements (NO NPC, NO animals per user request)
|
||||
3. **Integration:** Begin loading assets into game systems
|
||||
4. **Testing:** Visual review in asset browser
|
||||

|

|
||||
## 💡 **Production Insights:**
|
||||
|
||||
### **What Worked Well:**
|
||||
- Master reference approach for Ivan = perfect consistency
|
||||
- Batch generation by tool tier = efficient
|
||||
- Clear naming conventions
|
||||
- Style 32 prompts = consistent output
|
||||
|
||||
### **Challenges:**
|
||||
- Minor API throttle at ~40 sprites (easily resolved)
|
||||
- Need better organization workflow for 100+ assets
|
||||
|
||||
### **Improvements for Next Session:**
|
||||
- Organize assets DURING generation, not after
|
||||
- Create automated script to move brain assets → proper folders
|
||||
- Update manifest in real-time
|
||||
