Tedium-removal pass driven by live play feedback. Three big threads:
Expedition autopilot Phase 4 — background auto-run + harvest-until-dry:
- New expeditionAutoRunTicker walks active expeditions every 15min
(5min tick, per-expedition CAS on new last_autorun_at column). Skips
combat sessions, briefing/recap quiet windows, expeditions <30min old.
- Walks up to 3 rooms/tick with compact narration; suppresses DMs when
0 rooms walked or just hitting the per-tick cap (no "stretch complete"
filler). Player only hears from the bot when a real decision is needed.
- Compact mode: one-line combat narration for trash/elite, auto-resolves
elite doorways via the forward-sim engine (boss still pauses). Threaded
via new advanceOnceWithOpts → resolveRoom → resolveCombatRoom.
- Auto-harvest now grinds each Common/Uncommon node until dry (cap at 8
attempts/visit), mirroring manual !scavenge retries. Rare+ still pauses.
- Ambient ticker: anti-repeat by Kind via new last_ambient_kind column
(avoids two pack_rat DMs in a row when the pool only has 6 lines).
- !expedition go <n> now routes to the fork-choice handler when active +
numeric; fork footer rewritten to suggest !expedition go instead of
!zone go. Boss/Elite doorway: formatNextRoomMessage routes the action
hint by next room type and autopilot loop breaks via new nextRoomType
field so "Room X/Y — Boss" doesn't double-print with contradictory
hints (!zone advance vs !fight).
- runAutopilotWalk extracted from expeditionCmdRun so foreground and
background share the loop body.
Rogue Sneak Attack actually exists now:
- Audit found the rogue's "Sneak Attack" passive was AutoCritFirst +
5% damage rider. No Nd6, ever. Phase 2 Monte Carlo masked this
with a small flat buff; the class's defining mechanic never matched
its tooltip or 5e identity.
- Added SneakAttackDie int to CombatModifiers, per-hit Nd6 in
combat_primitives.go (same lane as DivineStrikePerHit). Scales with
level: 1d6 at L1-2 ... 4d6 at L7-8 ... capped at 10d6 at L19-20.
- AutoCritFirst + 5% rider retained as bonuses on top of working sneak
attack — preserves the opener-burst feel.
- L7 rogue expected per-hit ~8 → ~22 damage. Valdris fight math goes
from "16 rounds to kill, die in 8" to winnable.
TwinBee voice sweep (Phase B3):
- ~530 line changes across 24 files replacing third-person "TwinBee
notes/files/tracks/respects/..." constructions with first-person
inside flavor string literals. Code identifiers (TwinBeeLine,
twinBeeLine, etc.), chat-prefix labels (🎭 **TwinBee:**), item names
(TwinBee's Bell), achievements, and game-title references in
fun.go (Konami TwinBee ship) left intact.
- Catches a real bug: Valdris fight rendered "TwinBee marks the
Legendary Resistance" mid-combat in third person, contradicting
the Phase B2 convention.

Sweep of the remaining four twinbee_*.go flavor files (gm, resource,
ambient, housing). Every 'TwinBee [verb]' / 'TwinBee says' / 'TwinBee
notes' rewritten into first-person or implicit-subject voice. Jokes,
references, and pacing preserved; a few lines got slightly sharper
punchlines on the way through.
Files touched:
- twinbee_gm_flavor.go (~270 lines, all narration pools)
- twinbee_resource_flavor.go (~100 lines, harvest/fish/loot pools)
- twinbee_ambient_flavor.go (~40 lines, between-day ticker)
- twinbee_housing_flavor.go (7 lines; Thom Krooke 3rd-person and
Pastel 1st-person voices preserved)
twinbee_npc_flavor.go intentionally untouched: those are Pete
announcements referring to TwinBee, which is correctly third-person
(different speaker).
DO-NOT-REWRITE headers replaced with voice-convention notes covering
future additions.
Bundle of uncommitted working-tree edits across combat engine, expedition
cycle, flavor pools, and TwinBee/zone narration. Includes new files:
combat_debug.go, dnd_boss_consumables.go, dnd_dex_floor.go, plus
CHANGES_24H.md and REBALANCE_NOTES.md scratch notes.
