# Build Three.js Enemy Systems

Make each enemy a portable authored definition consumed by shared runtime systems. Keep AI choice, combat resolution, rendering, and feedback as separate consumers of the same stable contract.

## Separate content from runtime state

- Put stable IDs, role/tags, base stats, presentation spec, move IDs, AI hints, feedback hook IDs, rewards, and variant data in immutable authored definitions.
- Put instance ID, transform, health/posture, target, current move and phase clock, cooldowns, statuses, pathing, visibility, and LOD state in runtime instances.
- Reference definitions by ID. Reject duplicate IDs, missing references, invalid ranges, or impossible timing during content validation.
- Never mutate authored definitions, store live timers in content, or duplicate the combat clock across AI, animation, and rendering.

## Normalize presentation contracts

Define these fields before integrating a model:

- source or factory ID, provenance, coordinate system, forward axis, and meters-per-unit;
- root pivot at ground contact, normalized scale, facing offset, and visual height;
- simple movement collider plus named hurtboxes, independent of render geometry;
- stable sockets for contact origins, weapons, projectiles, VFX, audio, UI markers, and targeting;
- rig and semantic clip map for idle, locomotion, moves, reactions, and death;
- LOD tiers with hysteresis, animation/update policy, and unchanged gameplay colliders.

Normalize at the asset boundary. Do not scatter scale fixes, pivot offsets, raw clip names, or compensating rotations through gameplay code.

## Define moves as data

For every move, define:

- stable ID, AI tags, eligibility range/angle/line-of-sight, weight, and state prerequisites;
- startup and telegraph, one or more active windows, recovery, cooldown, and minimum commitment;
- movement, facing, cancellation, armor, interrupt, stagger, and phase rules;
- contact shape/socket, damage, posture, knockback, status, and per-target hit limits;
- semantic animation, VFX, and audio hook IDs with cleanup rules.

Let AI select only legal move IDs; let the combat system own timing and outcomes. Resolve damage from authoritative collision/contact events using stable action and target identifiers. Apply each contact once, then drive animation, VFX, audio, and UI from the resolved event.

## Provide an honest fallback

When a production model is unavailable, use a deliberate placeholder that preserves footprint, height, pivot, collider, sockets, facing, move timing, and state readability. Log the fallback once and keep it visually unmistakable. Never silently substitute a mismatched asset or call placeholder visuals production-ready.

## Add a new enemy

1. **Existing archetype and moves fit?** Configure a new definition; do not add runtime branches.
2. **A new behavior is essential?** Add the smallest reusable move, hook, or AI tag before adding a new subsystem.
3. **Model ready?** Normalize it to the shared presentation contract; otherwise use the honest fallback.
4. **Content complete?** Validate references, timing, contact, cooldown, recovery, interrupts, and feedback hooks.
5. **Proof ready?** Add deterministic fixtures and automated tests, then run desktop and mobile playthroughs.

## Prove the system

- Create deterministic fixtures for spawn, each move phase, wrong range/direction, obstruction, interrupt, stagger, death/reset, missing-model fallback, LOD transitions, and multiple instances sharing one definition.
- Test content uniqueness and references, active-window boundaries, cooldown/recovery, per-target hit deduplication, lifecycle cleanup, and pause/frame-step behavior.
- Play a representative encounter in the repository-approved browser. Confirm telegraphs, contact, state, animation, VFX/audio, targetability, and rewards agree.
- Verify desktop and mobile camera distance, touch controls, reduced motion, console health, frame time, draw calls, memory stability, and crowded-scene LOD behavior. Report baseline failures separately.
