Ports the CP437 font renderer from wds to the framebuffer: proportional advance from measured ink bounds, luminance-keyed mask, word wrap. The right 80 px strip becomes a HUD with name, HP bar, population and a log fed from sim events; Attacked/Died now carry the type ids the log needs, since the victim is gone from the world by the time events are read.

# Text Renderer
|
||
|
||
## Current state
|
||
|
||
`game/src/font.rs` — a CP437 bitmap font ported from the `wds` project.
|
||
|
||
- Atlas: 32 columns × 8 rows of fixed cells, codepoint = index (`A` at 65 → column 1,
|
||
row 2). Loaded with `Image::from_png`; the mask is derived from luminance (white on
|
||
black), so the caller paints glyphs in any RGB565 color.
|
||
- Proportional advance: on load the ink span of every glyph (leftmost/rightmost lit
|
||
column) is measured. `draw` crops to that span and advances by ink width + 1 px
|
||
tracking; blank glyphs (space) advance half a cell.
|
||
- `cp437(char)` maps ASCII 1:1 and the accented letters the atlas has (ä ö ü ß …);
|
||
everything else becomes `?`.
|
||
- `text_width` and `wrap` (word wrap with hard `\n`) for layout.
|
||
- Font in use: `assets/fonts/cga-8x8.png` (Oldschool PC Font Pack, CGA 8×8).
|
||
|
||
## Open questions
|
||
|
||
- A second, smaller or larger font (the EGA 8×14 from `wds`) once the UI needs hierarchy.
|
||
- Text color per span / inline markup for the log — not before it is needed.
