The world always runs at WORLD_TIME_SCALE = 24 (lib/worldClock.ts). A server
background tick (instrumentation.ts -> startBackgroundTick, 1 s interval)
advances the sim with no open browser; idle-pause freezes the clock exactly
while no plane is flying or in repair. Fresh worlds start year 2000
(STARTING_CLOCK_MS in seed.ts).
- Removed: POST /api/sim + OpenAPI entry, applyTimeControls/clampTimeScale,
lib/timeScale.ts, LeftPane pause button + scale slider machinery,
ISS-057 slow-on-landing/resume in flyPlane.
- Snapshot simState is now { clockMs } only; client extrapolates at the fixed
rate between polls and freezes while idle (useSimClock).
- New test-only hook POST /api/test/set-timescale behind FLIGHT_TEST_HOOKS=1
(sibling of set-health); all e2e setScale helpers call it, afterEach restores
the world rate. E2E pause tests replaced by idle-pause assertions; sim.spec.ts
activates the world via set-health + /repair for advance/expiry tests.
The airport popup's Relocate row now lists ALL planes instead of only
grounded ones; the click handler picks the endpoint by the selected
plane's current status — available → /fly (unchanged), flying/repairing
→ /queue so the destination is appended to the flight queue and chains
on landing. No-planes fallback reworded to 'No planes to relocate.'
E2E +1: relocation.spec.ts dispatches the starter on a leg via API,
slows the sim to 1x, opens the popup for a different airport, selects
the flying plane and clicks Relocate here — asserts the queue contains
the clicked ICAO while the plane still flies its original destination.
Replace the ISS-011 auto-slow with pause-on-landing: when the last plane
in flight lands, tickOnce sets sim_state.paused=true WITHOUT touching
timeScale (speed preserved). flyPlane() now clears paused before
persisting so starting a flight resumes a paused sim — inside runAction(),
tick + unpause + dispatch are atomic under the sim lock.
Tests: engine.test.ts auto-slow block rewritten for pause semantics; new
flyPlane test asserts dispatch clears paused with speed untouched. E2E:
auto-slow.spec.ts renamed to pause-on-landing.spec.ts asserting the new
behavior (paused=true AND timeScale still 1000 after landing; /fly clears
paused). Cross-cutting fix: every per-spec setScale helper now POSTs
{timeScale, paused:false} — a scale-only fast-forward after a landing would
otherwise leave the clock frozen. Deliberate mid-test pauses untouched.
