{"params":{"colorway":{"type":"choice","default":"coalition","label":"Colorway","describe":"Curated kit-coherent scheme; sets all seven zones at once and keeps the value ladder (dark plinth, pale post, mid hazard belt, blue head). coalition is the approved beacon \u2014 pale steel post, crimson-and-ochre hazard belt, Coalition-blue lantern. empire darkens the steel and swaps the head to Empire crimson. deep-space is a sun-bleached derelict marker in warm greys with an oxide belt. bio-lane is the alien lane marker: near-white post, bioluminescent green belt and a sea-green head.","options":["coalition","empire","deep-space","bio-lane"]},"hull":{"type":"color","default":"#e2e3e5","label":"Post","describe":"Albedo of the tapered marker post and its neck \u2014 the largest mass and the lightest rung of the ladder.

The triangle count moves with the course count, which is the tell that it rebuilds. The top end is deliberately the shorter half of the range: past about +12% the lantern climbs out of the frame the store shoots its proofs in, and the bottom end stops where the belt would crowd the neck.","affects":"geometry","min":0.75,"max":1.15,"step":0.05},"facets":{"type":"range","default":10,"label":"Facets","describe":"Number of flats round the whole stack \u2014 plinth, post, collar and lantern share one facet grid.
