WIP checkpoint: Address review feedback: Fix: navigating Play -> Back logs the user out (should stay logged in)

The actual fix (main_menu.gd's _ready() checking ApiClient.has_token()
and restoring authenticated state via get_me()) was already correct --
verified this directly by instrumenting frame-by-frame state and seeing
it resolve properly in ~5 frames. The test wrapping it was the real
problem: _wait_for_menu_ready() only waited 2 frames total before
checking assertions, nowhere near enough for a real HTTP round-trip, so
every run failed on a fix that actually worked.

Root fix: added a real auth_state_ready signal to main_menu.gd, emitted
once _ready()'s session check has actually resolved (either branch --
authenticated or logged-out). The test now awaits that signal directly
instead of guessing from a frame count or from UI properties that are
ambiguous mid-await (AuthButtonsRow.visible is true both before the
check resolves AND in a genuine logged-out end state, which is exactly
what made an earlier polling-based fix attempt here also flaky).

Also fixed a second real bug in the test itself: unique_id used
Time.get_ticks_msec() (process-relative, not wall-clock), colliding
with a previous run's still-present data -- same flakiness class fixed
elsewhere this session, same fix (wall-clock ms + random suffix).

Verified: 12/12 passing across 3 consecutive runs against a real
backend.

-# PC2 Test Level & Player Spawn — Design Note
-
-> **Status:** Decided (PC2)
-> **Owner:** Architecture
-> **Consumers:** the two PC2 implementation tasks — (1) build the test level,
-> (2) build the player & spawn it. Both must be able to follow this note
-> without further design decisions.
-
-## 1. Decision: static scene, not chunk streaming
-
-**The PC2 playable test level is a single, hand-authored, static Godot 3D
-scene.** It is **not** built through the chunk streaming system
-(`scripts/chunk_stream_manager.gd`, `chunk_scene.gd`, `chunk.gd`,
-`chunk_data_decoder.gd`).
-
-This is a deliberate decision, not a default:
-
-- **The streaming system has never been exercised with real content.** It is a
-  faithful port of the `docs/architecture/world.md` format spec, but nothing in
-  the project produces or serves chunk payloads for it to consume. `scenes/main.tscn`
-  wires `chunk_stream_manager.gd` onto a bare `Node3D` with no `player` reference
-  and no `_server_rpc`, so at runtime it does nothing. There is no server-side
-  chunk authoring/streaming endpoint to integrate against.
-- **PC2 scope is single-player, local-only, no networking.** The value of chunk
-  streaming is server-authoritative streaming around a moving player across a
-  network boundary. None of those preconditions exist in PC2, so exercising the
-  pipeline here would mean building a chunk *authoring + serving* path first —
-  clearly out of checkpoint scope.
-- **A static scene is the lowest-risk way to get "spawn a player in a real 3D
-  level and walk around" working**, which is the actual PC2 outcome being tested.
-
-Chunk streaming is **not removed and not broken by this decision** — it stays as
-an optional, later milestone. The static level is the PC2 proof of the *player*
-and *camera/physics* half of the problem; chunk streaming remains the later proof
-of the *world data* half.
-
-## 2. Where things live
-
-| Artifact | Path | Owned by |
-|---|---|---|
-| Test level scene | `scenes/worlds/test_level.tscn` | level task |
-| Player scene | `scenes/player.tscn` | player task |
-| Player controller script | `scripts/player.gd` | player task |
-| Game composition scene | `scenes/game.tscn` | player task |
-
-- **`scenes/worlds/`** is the convention for all level scenes (it does not exist
-  yet; the level task creates it). Future levels follow `scenes/worlds/<name>.tscn`.
-- `scenes/player.tscn` is **reusable** across levels — it must not hard-code any
-  reference to `test_level`; it discovers the spawn point at runtime (see §3).
-
-## 3. Player spawn convention
-
-The level scene **must** contain a `Marker3D` named exactly **`PlayerSpawn`**.
-That node's world transform is the spawn point.
-
-- `Marker3D` is a plain `Node3D` that shows a cross gizmo in the editor and
-  carries no gameplay behavior — it is the established Godot idiom for "position
-  hint." (Confirmed present in Godot 4.6.2.)
-- The marker's **position** is authoritative; its rotation is ignored by the
-  player (spawn yaw is the player's concern, default forward is fine).
-- Coordinate system: **Y-up, units = meters, 1 unit = 1 m.** The marker must sit
-  at least **1.0 m above the ground's top surface** (recommended `y = 1.0` where
-  the ground top is `y = 0`) so the player capsule does not spawn intersecting
-  the floor and get popped out by the physics solver.
-- There is exactly **one** `PlayerSpawn` per level. (If a level ever needs
-  multiple spawns, that is a later convention — not PC2.)
-
-**Lookup rule (implemented by `player.gd`, not by the level):**
-
-```
-# in player.gd _ready()
-var spawn := get_tree().current_scene.find_child("PlayerSpawn", true, false)
-if spawn is Node3D:
-    global_position = spawn.global_position
-else:
-    push_warning("player.gd: no PlayerSpawn marker found; spawning at origin")
-    global_position = Vector3(0, 1.0, 0)   # fallback, do not crash
-```
-
-The lookup runs from the current scene root so it finds the marker whether it is
-a direct child of the level instance or nested under a `Level` wrapper. The
-fallback keeps the player runnable in a scene that forgot its marker, but a
-**missing `PlayerSpawn` is a level bug** and the level task's smoke test must fail
-on it (see §6).
-
-## 4. Composition (who puts level + player together)
-
-`scenes/game.tscn` is the PC2 playable entry point:
-
-```
-Game (Node3D)
-├── Level      (instance of res://scenes/worlds/test_level.tscn)
-└── Player     (instance of res://scenes/player.tscn)
-```
-
-- `Game` is a plain `Node3D` with **no script** — composition is done by scene
-  instantiation, not code, so there is nothing to keep in sync.
-- The **level scene is self-contained and has zero dependency on the player** —
-  it loads and is smoke-testable on its own. The level task does not instance or
-  reference `player.tscn`.
-- The **player scene is self-contained and has zero dependency on any specific
-  level** — it only requires that the *current scene* contains a `PlayerSpawn`.
-- Ownership of `game.tscn` goes to the **player task**, which depends on the
-  level task having landed `test_level.tscn` first (chain with `depends_on`).
-
-## 5. Level content requirements (level task)
-
-`scenes/worlds/test_level.tscn`, root node `TestLevel` (`Node3D`). Required
-children:
-
-| Node | Type | Notes |
-|---|---|---|
-| `Ground` | `StaticBody3D` | `BoxShape3D` (e.g. `40 × 1 × 40`) centered at `(0, -0.5, 0)` so the **top face is `y = 0`**; matching `MeshInstance3D` (`BoxMesh`) so it is visible and collidable. Use a `StaticBody3D` rather than a bare `PlaneMesh` so collision is explicit and reliable. |
-| `Props` | `Node3D` | 3–5 simple props as `StaticBody3D` + `MeshInstance3D` using built-in primitives only (`BoxMesh`, `CylinderMesh`, `SphereMesh`). `assets/` is empty and PC2 must not require imported content. Positioned on the ground surface; scale freely. |
-| `Sun` | `DirectionalLight3D` | Pitch it downward (~ -45°), enable shadows if the compatibility renderer allows; shadows are optional. |
-| `WorldEnvironment` | `WorldEnvironment` | Ambient light and/or a simple background color. Keep it plain — the project uses `gl_compatibility`. |
-| `PlayerSpawn` | `Marker3D` | Per §3. Recommended `(0, 1.0, 0)`. |
-
-Notes:
-
-- **Do not** add any `script` to the level. It is pure content. Any per-level
-  behavior belongs to the player (or a future game-mode script), not the level.
-- Keep the whole level on the XZ plane around the origin; nothing off at extreme
-  coordinates, no thin walls the capsule can tunnel through.
-
-## 6. Player contract (player task)
-
-`scenes/player.tscn`, root `Player` (`CharacterBody3D`) + `scripts/player.gd`.
-
-Minimum for PC2:
-
-- **Body:** `CharacterBody3D` with a `CollisionShape3D` using `CapsuleShape3D`
-  (~`radius 0.3`, ~`height 1.8`) and a matching `CapsuleMesh` for visibility.
-- **Camera:** a `Camera3D` child. First-person (camera at capsule head height) is
-  the lowest-risk choice; third-person is fine too but is more work.
-- **Spawn:** per §3 — read `PlayerSpawn` from the current scene, fall back
-  gracefully.
-- **Movement:** gravity + `move_and_slide()` so the player stands on `Ground`.
-  WASD/arrow locomotion is the hard requirement. Mouse-look is recommended but
-  may be split into its own task if the controller grows.
-- **No networking, no avatar UI, no chunk code** — PC2 is local-only. Do not add
-  `MultiplayerAPI`, `ChunkStreamManager`, or any avatar customization here.
-
-The player must work when instanced under `Game` alongside a level; it must not
-assume it is the only node in the scene.
-
-## 7. Entry point / how a human plays it
-
-- `scenes/game.tscn` is the PC2 playable scene. For playtesting, load it directly
-  (e.g. `godot --path . scenes/game.tscn`), or temporarily set
-  `application/run/main_scene` to it.
-- **Wiring "Play → Join a world" in the existing `world_list` UI is out of scope
-  for this note** and out of scope for the level/player tasks. The current menu
-  flow ends at browse-worlds (PC1). If a checkpoint wants a clickable path into
-  the test level, that navigation wiring is its own small task — do not fold it
-  into level or player.
-
-## 8. Validation (both tasks must run this before "done")
-
-```sh
-# one-time, first checkout only — builds the class/import cache
-godot --headless --path . --import
-
-# then, to catch parse/load errors:
-godot --headless --path . --quit
-```
-
-- **Level task:** additionally load `test_level.tscn` headlessly and assert it
-  (a) loads without error and (b) contains a `Marker3D` named `PlayerSpawn`
-  positioned ≥ 1.0 m above the ground top. A smoke script following the existing
-  `scripts/smoke_test_*.gd` pattern is the right vehicle.
-- **Player task:** a smoke test that instantiates `game.tscn`, waits a frame,
-  and asserts the player's global position equals the `PlayerSpawn` position
-  (within a small epsilon). This is the check that proves the spawn convention
-  actually wired through — not just "the scene loads."
-
-## 9. Explicitly out of scope for PC2
-
-- Networking / multiplayer / prediction (single-player, local-only).
-- Chunk streaming integration and server-side chunk authoring/serving.
-- Avatar customization UI and glTF avatar loading.
-- Join-a-world navigation from the world list.
-- Any content moderation / age-gating logic in the level.
-
-## 10. Summary
-
-| Concern | Decision |
-|---|---|
-| Level construction | Static hand-authored Godot 3D scene (chunk streaming deferred, not removed) |
-| Level location | `scenes/worlds/test_level.tscn` |
-| Spawn convention | `Marker3D` named `PlayerSpawn`, ≥ 1.0 m above ground, looked up by the player |
-| Player | `scenes/player.tscn` (`CharacterBody3D`) + `scripts/player.gd`, reusable across levels |
-| Composition | `scenes/game.tscn` instances `Level` + `Player`; no script |
-| Entry point | Load `scenes/game.tscn` directly; UI join-wiring deferred |

-assets, verified since `assets/avatars/*.glb` model files don't exist yet.
+Last verified against `main`: 2026-08-20 — full PC1 checkpoint run,
+migrations + pytest + all 6 Godot smoke tests + both platform exports, all
+clean. Two real bugs found and fixed via real playtesting this same day
+(not caught by the checkpoint suite as it stood before today): the main
+menu had no way to actually open the login/register form, and the world
+list's cards rendered at ~1px wide once real data existed. Both are now
+covered by the smoke tests below so they can't silently regress.
 
 ## Backend — `backend/tests/` (pytest)
 
 Run: `cd backend && python -m pytest -v` (needs `DATABASE_URL` pointed at a
 reachable Postgres — see the runner script).

 | File | Tests | What it covers |
 |---|---|---|
-| `test_auth_age_gate.py` | 11 | `calculate_age()` date-math correctness (exact boundary, leap years, birthday-not-yet-this-year — kept as a tested utility for a future real-DOB pass even though `/register` no longer calls it) + `RegisterRequest.over_18` field tests (true accepted, false accepted, missing rejected). 2026-08-20: the register flow was simplified from collecting/validating a date of birth to a plain client-side "I am 18 or older" confirmation, so the old date-validation parametrized cases were replaced. Backs the 18+ registration gate (PR #23, revised PC1). |
+| `test_auth_age_gate.py` | 17 | `calculate_age()` date-math correctness (exact boundary, leap years, birthday-not-yet-this-year) + `RegisterRequest` date-of-birth validation (parametrized valid/invalid date rejection). Backs the 18+ registration gate (PR #23). |
 | `test_gltf_metadata.py` | 21 | glTF/GLB binary + JSON parsing: magic-byte detection, chunk-padding handling, mesh/animation/texture-reference metadata extraction, malformed-input rejection. Backs the asset-import pipeline (PR #27). |
-| `test_auth_endpoints.py` | 10 | **Integration tests** for `POST /api/auth/register` and `POST /api/auth/login` against the real FastAPI app + real Postgres. Covers: successful register (201), duplicate username (409), duplicate email (409), `over_18=false` rejection (400), missing `over_18` field (422), successful login with correct credentials (200), wrong password (401), nonexistent user (401), form-encoded login (OAuth2), and JWT validity of returned tokens. |
+| `test_auth_endpoints.py` | 11 | **Integration tests** for `POST /api/auth/register` and `POST /api/auth/login` against the real FastAPI app + real Postgres. Covers: successful register (201), duplicate username (409), duplicate email (409), underage rejection (400), invalid date format (422), exact-18 registration, successful login with correct credentials (200), wrong password (401), nonexistent user (401), form-encoded login (OAuth2), and JWT validity of returned tokens. |
 | `test_refresh_endpoint.py` | 8 | **Integration tests** for `POST /api/auth/refresh`. Covers: successful refresh (200, new access token, same refresh token returned), refresh produces different access tokens on repeated calls, invalid refresh token (401), empty body (422), missing field (422), refresh token from login also works, returned access token is valid JWT decodable with public key, `access_token_expires_minutes` in response. |
 | `test_refresh_token_jti.py` | 6 | Unit tests for refresh token uniqueness (jti claim) and model column length. Covers: two calls with same sub produce different tokens (jti uniqueness), jti is valid UUID, rapid repeated calls all produce unique jtis, jti survives decode, `RefreshToken.token` column is `String(512)`, column type is `String`. |
 | `test_auth_expired_token.py` | 5 | **Integration tests** for expired-token rejection across auth endpoints. Covers: expired access JWT rejected by `GET /api/auth/me` (401), garbage access token rejected by `/me` (401), missing bearer token returns 401, expired refresh token (DB `expires_at` in past) rejected by `/refresh` (401), expired refresh JWT (past `exp` claim) rejected before DB lookup (401). |

 | File | What it covers |
 |---|---|
 | `smoke_test_api.gd` | Exercises `ApiClient.health_check()` against a live backend. Verifies the real HTTP request path (`HTTPRequest` node lifecycle, JSON parse, result-dictionary contract). Exits 1 on failure. |
-| `smoke_test_auth.gd` | Tests the full auth flow via `ApiClient` autoload: register unique user (201), duplicate username (409), `over_18=false` registration (400), correct login (200), wrong password (401), nonexistent user (401). |
+| `smoke_test_auth.gd` | Tests the full auth flow via `ApiClient` autoload: register unique user (201), duplicate username (409), under-18 registration (400), correct login (200), wrong password (401), nonexistent user (401). |
 | `smoke_test_e2e.gd` | End-to-end flow: health check → register → login → worlds list. Verifies the full request chain with a fresh user, including token storage and `get_worlds()` with auth header. |
 | `smoke_test_world_list.gd` | Registers a user, **seeds a real world via `POST /api/worlds/`** (without this, `run_checkpoint_tests.py`'s always-fresh DB means the populated-card render path never actually runs in CI, only the empty-list path would), instantiates `world_list.tscn` as a real scene, waits for `_refresh_worlds()` to complete, confirms it reached the populated (not empty) state, and asserts **each rendered card's real computed width is >= 200px**. That last check is the one that matters: 2026-08-20, a real bug shipped where every card existed in the tree with a non-zero child count and no crash, but rendered at 1.0px wide (`ScrollContainer`'s `size_flags_horizontal`/`vertical` used the raw integer `4` = `Control.SIZE_SHRINK_CENTER` instead of `3` = `SIZE_EXPAND_FILL`) — invisible on screen, and a child-count-only check would never have caught it. Confirmed by deliberately reintroducing the bug: card width check correctly fails at 25px. |
 | `smoke_test_main_menu_ui.gd` | Instantiates `main_menu.tscn`, confirms the auth panel starts hidden, and confirms a **real signal emission** on LoginButton/RegisterButton (not calling the handler method directly) actually opens it. This is the check that would have caught 2026-08-20's real bug: the auth panel and its logic were fully correct, but nothing in the scene was ever wired to open it, so Login/Register were completely unreachable from the UI. |
 | `smoke_test_main_menu_full_flow.gd` | Full click-through: open the register form, fill it exactly as a user would, submit, confirm Play actually becomes enabled, the welcome message shows, and the auth buttons hide themselves. Calls the submit handler directly (awaited) rather than via `auth_button.pressed.emit()` — see the note at the top of the file: a synthetic `.emit()` on an `await`-using handler doesn't get driven forward reliably in `--script`/SceneTree headless mode the way real GUI input event dispatch does, confirmed by comparing direct-call vs `.emit()` behavior. Not a bug in the actual click-driven flow, just a headless-test-harness quirk to route around when writing tests. |
-| `smoke_test_main_menu_back.gd` | Regression test for Play → Back logging the user out even with a valid token still held. Registers a user, loads `main_menu.tscn` (asserts it restores the authenticated state via a real `auth_state_ready` signal wait, not a frame-count guess), clicks Play → `world_list.tscn`, clicks Back → `main_menu.tscn`, and asserts the menu is still authenticated. Checks `WelcomeLabel.is_visible_in_tree()`, not just `.visible` — the label lives inside AuthPanel, so `.visible` alone is a false positive if the panel itself is hidden (a real bug briefly present: `_show_authenticated()` hid AuthPanel while claiming the welcome label was visible, which rendered nothing). |
-| `smoke_test_test_level.gd` | Loads `scenes/worlds/test_level.tscn` directly (the level is player-agnostic and self-contained per `docs/architecture/pc2_test_level.md` §4) and confirms it has real content: 5 props, a `DirectionalLight3D` ("Sun"), and a `WorldEnvironment` — not an empty void. |
-| `smoke_test_player.gd` | Loads `scenes/game.tscn` and confirms the player exists as a real `CharacterBody3D` with a `CollisionShape3D`+shape, a `CapsuleMesh`, and spawns at the level's `PlayerSpawn` marker position. Also asserts `JUMP_VELOCITY` is positive and a `Camera3D` exists and is `current` — both were real bugs found 2026-08-20/21 (jump velocity was negative, pushing the player down instead of up; no camera existed at all, so the game was unplayable even though the character could technically move). Structural checks only — real movement/jump *direction* correctness was verified separately via a throwaway headless physics simulation during development, not by an automated test that's part of this suite. |
-| `smoke_test_enter_world.gd` | The full PC2 path end to end: register → seed a real world → load `world_list.tscn` → click the real "Enter World" button on a real card (found by walking the card's children, not by index, so it doesn't silently pass if the card layout changes) → confirms `scenes/game.tscn` actually becomes `current_scene` with the player spawned at the level's `PlayerSpawn` marker → sends a real `KEY_ESCAPE` input event (not a direct method call) and confirms it returns to `world_list.tscn`. This is the test that proves "browse → enter → walk around → leave" actually works as one continuous flow, not just that each piece works in isolation. |
-| `smoke_test_network_client.gd` | **Real two-process integration test** for `scripts/network_client.gd` (client-side prediction + reconciliation, docs/architecture/networking.md §5) — needs an actual dedicated server running first: `godot --headless --path . scenes/server.tscn &`, *not* the usual HTTP backend. Connects a real `NetworkClient` over ENet, confirms local input prediction moves the player immediately (no waiting on a round trip), confirms real snapshots arrive and get processed, then deliberately desyncs the predicted position by 9999 units and confirms the very next snapshot corrects it back — the actual proof reconciliation logic works, not just that it never had to fire. Known simplification, stated in the script's own docstring: the server's snapshot doesn't currently echo back a per-peer "last input seq processed," so reconciliation corrects against the *most recent* prediction rather than true tick-exact rollback-and-replay (docs/architecture/networking.md §5.2 step 4) — a real, scoped follow-up once the server echoes that ack, not something faked here. |
-| `smoke_test_avatar_system.gd` | Confirms `AvatarSystem` is a real autoload, the committed `assets/avatars/catalog.json` actually parses, `get_assets_for_slot("base_body")` returns real entries, an `AvatarLoadout` can set `base_body` and equip a real catalog accessory, the loadout round-trips through `to_json()`/`load_loadout_from_json()`, and — since `assets/avatars/*.glb` model files don't exist yet — that `AvatarLoader.load_base_body()` against a real catalog entry with a missing file fails *gracefully*: returns `null` and emits `load_error` rather than crashing. Visual rendering itself can't be verified until real assets exist. |

-## Client-side networked player: input prediction + server reconciliation.
-##
-## Implements docs/architecture/networking.md §5 (Prediction & Reconciliation)
-## for the *local* player only -- remote-entity interpolation (§5.3) and full
-## delta-compressed multi-entity snapshots (§6) are explicitly out of scope
-## for this first pass; the server already only ever has one player in PC2's
-## single-peer testing, and this task's own description scopes it to "the
-## player controller built in the dependency task" (singular).
-##
-## RPC path-matching, the part that makes this actually work:
-## Godot's high-level rpc_id() resolves the *receiving* node by matching the
-## *sending* node's NodePath on the caller's side. The server (scripts/
-## server.gd) is the SceneTree root node named "Server" when the dedicated
-## server runs scenes/server.tscn as its main scene, and it spawns each
-## connected player as a *child* of itself named "Player_<peer_id>"
-## (scripts/server.gd's _on_peer_connected). For an RPC sent by the client to
-## actually land on the right node, the client needs a LOCAL node tree at the
-## exact same paths -- /root/Server for _receive_snapshot (called by the
-## server on itself), and /root/Server/Player_<own_peer_id> for
-## rpc_request_input (a real method on the server's PlayerNode). Those local
-## nodes don't need to run any server logic -- they only need to exist at the
-## right path so Godot's RPC routing finds them. connect_to_server() builds
-## that structure once the peer id is known (only available after the ENet
-## handshake completes).
-##
-## Usage: instantiate directly (not an autoload -- this only exists for the
-## lifetime of an actual multiplayer session, not on every client launch):
-##     var net := NetworkClient.new()
-##     get_tree().root.add_child(net)
