Two names in this repo were quietly colliding with things that already ship.
`lumbridge-simulate` is a Rust crate in the private monorepo — the Governor's
memory-admission simulator, with a public product page — and in its vocabulary
a "Scene" is a set of models, not a three.js scene. Naming a 3D engine the same
thing would have put two different meanings on both words at once.
Meanwhile world1.lumbridgecorp.com has been serving <title>Tera — Lumbridge</title>
since before any of this: the world already had a name.
So the map view is Tera, the interiors product is Spaces, an Office is one
building's interior and a Space is a room inside it. ARCHITECTURE.md opens with
that table now, because the next few thousand lines all depend on it.
The Phaser 2D world comes down rather than being migrated. Its tileset is
precisely what stopped it being open-sourceable, and there are no real users to
strand.

LSE is the third of the three, beside lumbridge-compute and lumbridge-bench: a
3D engine for walkable places. This first commit is the outside of the world —
San Francisco — plus the seams the inside will attach to.
The engine renders a City and a list of Markers and knows nothing else. It does
not know markers are usually companies and it will never learn that "rejected"
is red; that mapping lives in an adapter. Which is what lets one renderer serve
a private map, a public one, and a self-hoster with no Lumbridge account, none
of them a fork of the others.
Three things were designed around the licence rather than discovered after it,
because each one is a promise Apache 2.0 makes that is easy to break by
accident. No trademarks in the repo — logos are fetched at runtime, and
public/logos/ is gitignored. No OpenStreetMap-derived coordinates, which is why
every coastline in cities/sf.ts was traced by hand: Nominatim output is ODbL,
share-alike, and would attach to the whole pack. And no FlightRadar24 client —
their terms forbid scraping and redistribution, so flights are an interface
with a simulator and open community ADS-B behind it.
The privacy constraint and the licence constraint turned out to want the same
thing. Geocoded company positions and pipeline status both stay behind Workie's
API; the open repo holds the city and the renderer. The tempting shortcut —
commit an sf-companies.json — breaks both at once.
Ported out of Workie, where a 3D city engine had no business living. Workie's
/live is deleted rather than deprecated.
