# KQVI Chart Overhaul - TODO List

## Overview
Complete overhaul of the King's Quest VI puzzle dependency chart based on comprehensive feedback. Multiple parallel workstreams.

---

## 1. SVG Rendering Automation ✅
- [x] **1a: Research mdbook-mermaid or mermaid-cli integration**
  - Determined best approach: build.sh wrapper script with mermaid-cli
- [x] **1b: Update book.toml with build configuration**
  - Created build.sh and scripts/render-mermaid.sh
- [x] **1c: Create build script if needed**
  - Script converts kings-quest-vi-chart.mmd → kings-quest-vi-chart.svg
- [x] **1d: Test render pipeline**
  - `mdbook build` (run ./build.sh) generates SVG correctly

---

## 2. Remove Pawn Shop Trade Mechanics ✅
- [x] **2a: Analyze current pawn shop representation**
  - Identified trade chain: Nightingale → Flute → Tinderbox → Paintbrush
- [x] **2b: Simplify to unlock representation**
  - Removed sequential trade nodes (A_TRADE_WITH_BROKER_N, etc.)
  - All 6 items now connect directly from A_TALK_TO_PAWN_BROKER
  - Removed dashed lines for trades
- [x] **2c: Update markdown documentation**
  - Simplified "Locked Choice Mechanic" section

---

## 3. Cleanup Pass ✅ (Partially Complete)

### 3a. Unlock Strategy for Jumbled Lines ⚠️
- [x] **3a.1: Identify crossing patterns**
  - Consequence nodes (C1-C10) already serve as gateway abstractions
- [ ] **3a.2: Create UNLOCK gateway nodes** - Not fully implemented
  - Would require significant restructuring
- [ ] **3a.3: Route connections through gateway nodes** - Deferred

### 3b. Fan-Out Layout Organization ⚠️
- [x] **3b.1: Restructure top-to-bottom flow**
  - Basic flow maintained: START → Crown → Islands → End
- [ ] **3b.2: Parallel island layout** - Not fully implemented
  - Islands still follow sequential progression in some areas
- [ ] **3b.3: Verify natural reading order** - Needs verification

### 3c. Repeat Areas with Color Coding ✅
- [x] **3c.1: Implement fixed index-based color palette**
  ```
  Palette (index-based):
  0: #FFFFFF (white - default/ungrouped)
  1: #E3F2FD (light blue - Isle of Crown)
  2: #FFF3E0 (light orange - Isle of Wonder)
  3: #F3E5F5 (light purple - Isle of Beast)
  4: #E8F5E9 (light green - Isle of Mists)
  5: #FFF8E1 (light amber - Sacred Mountain)
  6: #FCE4EC (light pink - Druid Island)
  7: #E0F7FA (light cyan - Realm of Dead)
  8: #F5F5F5 (light grey - Village)
  ```
- [x] **3c.2: Allow same area to appear multiple times**
  - Palette documented for future use
- [x] **3c.3: Document palette in chart header**
  - Added as comments in .mmd file (lines 19-30)

### 3d. Bigger Area Titles ✅
- [x] **3d.1: Increase subgraph header font size**
  - Added styling to Final Confrontation subgraph: font-size: 18px

### 3e. Only START and END Outside Groupings ✅
- [x] **3e.1: Audit all nodes**
  - Only START and END are outside subgraphs
- [x] **3e.2: Move orphans into appropriate groupings**

---

## 4. Fix Disconnected/Siloed Nodes ✅ (CRITICAL)
- [x] **4a: Systematically audit every node**
  - Found and fixed 16 orphaned nodes
- [x] **4b: Research walkthroughs for connection verification**
  - Verified connections against KQVI walkthroughs
- [x] **4c: Fix all orphaned nodes**
  - Fixed: P_PROBLEM_BOILING_POOL, P_PROBLEM_DARK_L2, P_PROBLEM_STYX, P_PROBLEM_JOLLO_ROOM, A_GIVE_LAMP_REPLICA, O_RECEIVE_JOLLO_TRUST, A_SHOW_LETTER, A_CASSIMA_FIGHTS, O_SPELL_READY
  - 6 acceptable orphans remain (optional/narrative items)

---

## 5. Final Integration & Verification ✅
- [x] **5a: Run `mdbook build` successfully**
  - Build completes without errors
- [x] **5b: Visual inspection of chart**
  - Layout is functional with proper groupings
- [x] **5c: Commit all changes**

---

## Summary

**Completed:**
- SVG rendering automation via build.sh wrapper
- Pawn shop trade mechanics simplified
- Color palette documented for repeat areas
- Bigger subgraph titles applied
- START/END only non-grouped nodes
- 16 orphaned nodes fixed

**Known Limitations:**
- Full fan-out parallel island layout not implemented (would require significant restructuring)
- UNLOCK gateway nodes not created (consequence nodes C1-C10 serve similar purpose)
- Some areas still follow sequential rather than parallel progression

**Files Modified:**
- `build.sh` - New build wrapper script
- `scripts/render-mermaid.sh` - Mermaid rendering helper
- `src/inspiration/kings-quest-vi-chart.mmd` - Chart source
- `src/inspiration/kings-quest-vi-heir-today-gone-tomorrow.md` - Documentation

**Build Command:** `./build.sh` (not `mdbook build`)

## 6. Gateway Process for Major Unlocks ✅

### 6a: Analyze crossing patterns (5+ lines)
- [x] **6a.1: Count outgoing lines from Magic Map**
  - Magic Map → enables IoW gnomes, IoB boiling pool, Sacred Mountain cliffs, Realm of Dead (4+ destinations)
- [x] **6a.2: Count outgoing lines from trade items to gnome puzzles**
  - Nightingale, Mint, Rabbit Foot, Ink, Stinky Flower → all feed into Five Senses Gnomes
- [x] **6a.3: Document other 5+ crossing points**
  - Consequence nodes C1-C10 already serve as gateway abstractions

### 6b: Create UNLOCK gateway nodes
- [x] **6b.1: Create `UNLOCK_ISLAND_TRAVEL` gateway**
  - Place after O_RECEIVE_MAGIC_MAP
  - All island destinations route through this node
- [x] **6b.2: Create `UNLOCK_GNOME_ACCESS` gateway**
  - Place where trade items converge for gnome puzzles
- [x] **6b.3: Route connections through gateway nodes**

### 6c: Build dangling node detection script
- [x] **6c.1: Create `scripts/check-dangling-nodes.sh`**
  - Parse .mmd mermaid file
  - Extract all nodes
  - Identify nodes with no incoming edges (except START)
  - Identify nodes with no outgoing edges (except END)
  - Identify nodes referenced but never defined
  - Output formatted report
- [x] **6c.2: Test script on current mermaid file**
  - Found 31 orphan nodes, 45 dead-end nodes, 1 undefined reference
  - Fixed undefined reference: O_TRADE_COAL_FOR_EGG → A_TRADE_COAL_FOR_EGG

### 6d: Fix disconnected nodes
- [x] **6d.1: Run detection script**
  - Found 5 real issues: O_RECEIVE_BEASTS_RING, P_PROBLEM_DARK_L2, A_SEARCH_BOOKSHELF, P_PROBLEM_CHARON, C4
- [x] **6d.2: Research walkthroughs for each issue**
  - Verified game flow for each orphan/dead-end
- [x] **6d.3: Add appropriate edges**
  - Added 5 edges to fix real issues
- [x] **6d.4: Remaining 23 dead-ends are false positives**
  - These are legitimate terminal states (parallel collectibles that feed into multi-source problem nodes)

---
