Weapon.StanceAllowsFire is the one shared gate: true with no target, else the
shooter's own Entity.IsHostileTo(Target) -- not the target's stance toward the
shooter. It lives on the Weapon base class so every weapon subtype and every
caller (player input, TurretController, AI) goes through the same rule.
Wired at the two places weapons actually start dealing damage:
- InstantWeapon.Trigger (the base for InstantWeapon, AutoWeapon, ChargedWeapon
and LockWeapon/Launcher, all of which route real firing through Trigger).
- ConstantWeapon.Execute's continuous-beam loop, which stops firing (and
raises OnStopFiring) the moment the shooter's stance disallows it.
Also fixes LockWeapon's lock-building condition, which read the wrong
direction (target.IsHostileTo(shooter) instead of shooter.IsHostileTo(target))
-- the same backwards check as the HUD lock indicator, fixed alongside this in
ActionGameManager.

Cut 8b. Aetheria.Shared builds headless against GameCult.Caching and
GameCult.Caching.MessagePack at the pinned CultLib; the pin guard also
checks the Caching project exists.
Documents: [CultDocument("aetheria.<type>", "1")] with [MessagePackObject]
and integer [Key]s on the Q7 concrete types (the eight ItemData leaves,
Faction, FactionProductData, PersonalityAttribute, NameFile, OrbitData, the
four BodyData leaves, SavedZone, SavedGame, PlayerSettings, InputLayout).
SavedGame and PlayerSettings are [CultGlobal]; Name members are [CultName].
ItemData, CraftedItemData, EquippableItemData, BodyData and AgentTask lose
[MessagePackObject]; BodyData and AgentTask lose their [Union]s. InputLayout
moves into ServerShared so AetheriaStores can route it.
References: Guid and DatabaseLink<T> members become CultRecordRef<T>;
Guid-keyed maps become ref-keyed with [CultReference(..., many: true)];
ZonePack holds refs to orbit and body records. Runtime maps (Zone orbits,
bodies and belts, cargo ItemsOfType, agent targets) key by CultRecordKey.
Identity is the record key: ID comparisons become reference or key
comparisons. StatModifierData.RequireBehavior is a simple type name.
AetheriaStores.Open composes the catalog (read-only unless writable), run
and player stores, one home per type. CultRecordRefs carries IsSet, a
null-safe Get(ref), RefOf (key from TryGetHandle) and Upsert.
ItemManager.GetData is the one item resolution path. MathResolver is
declared by [assembly: CultCacheFormatterResolver].
Inspector attributes: text, range and asset path map onto CultLib's
CultInspector attributes (asset path only on string members); every
replaced Aetheria attribute keeps [Inspectable] for the runtime panel.
Builds: Aetheria.Shared. Does not build: AetherDb and the Unity project,
which follow.

Every Unity.Mathematics using, alias and qualified name under Assets\Scripts
and tools now names CultMath. The nine `using static ...noise;` lines are
gone: snoise lives on CultMath's math. UnityExtensions loses float4.ToColor
and Color.ToFloat4, which duplicate the bridge's ToColor and ToCultMath; the
float3 colour pair stays because the bridge has none.

Refactor item instance to use DatabaseLink
Labels now pop up when aiming at loot
Yeeted HUD trigger group UI into the abyss
Created rebindable action bar (missing: assigning actions)
Created Consumable Items
Refactored behaviors to work on consumable items
Implemented Velocity Conversion Behavior
Added Aetheric Drive hardpoint and item behavior
Added Drive RPM UI to HUD
Fixed death not disabling continue option
Disabling global input when dialog is visible
Fixed loadout generator failure when zero price item present
Replaced fixed top speed with drag coefficients
Marking player location on galaxy map
Fixed non-input field focus disabling global key map
Player start ship is now always the same
Loadout generator now demands exact match for item dimensions
Thermal damage now triggers ItemDamaged event = player can die from cockpit wear!
Properties panel now has a much more attractive UI
Implemented curve control for properties UI
Centralized number formatting in player settings
Moved significant digits to player settings
Added temperature unit option in player settings
Ships are now more visible in lit areas (depending on cross section stat in Reflector behavior)
Refactored all behaviors to remove context & entity references (can get them from equipped item reference if needed)
Fixed crash when enemy dies of heatstroke while targeted
Exponential decay for visibility now uses correct time-independent formula
Refactored item inspection in properties panel (now consistent between equipped items vs. inventory and store items, shows effect of heat on stats)
Reordered item properties and added spacing between groups
Extracted all inspector code for database inspector into a single class per supported field type and wrote reflection code to invoke them automatically
Removed all Aetheria-specific code from database tools
Database View editor is now abstract and supports arbitrary grouping of entry types; specific users must implement their own database view
Changed title font to Montserrat
Added trailer-specific camera transitions
Added key to hide UI
Fixed input listening while console is open
Added animated zone reveal effect in galaxy map
Added Ping action for sensors
Added debug console commands (e.g. give command to get any item in legendary+ quality)
Temporarily disabled wwise
Fixed infinite loop in weapon penetration code
Guided missiles now predict target position
Fixed hitscan weapons
Fixed invisible enemies bug
Fixed various loadout generator issues (can now generate turrets!)
Fixed wormhole crash when enemy is targeted
Saving/loading current zone time when exiting game (planets keep their positions)
Created slime simulation in test scene - WIP
Removed blueprint system for crafting (and excised anything depending on that)
Implemented smootherstep and used it for wormhole animation
Quality dependent durability and heat exponents are now global instead of item specific
Database list view now groups equipment by manufacturer
Thrusters can now consume energy
Weapons can have reloads even when they don't have ammo
Added ping feature to sensors, pulsing a wave of revealing light into the level

Implemented sensor impact for locked weapons (lock speed varies with sensor acquisition)
Added ping cooldown bar to HUD
Added spline curve implementations to AetheriaMath, applied better mapping to wormhole transition animation
Tweaked loadout generator to prefer larger items to a controllable degree (e.g. very important for cargo bays, less for shop inventory), shop inventory bans non-ship hulls and manages internal space more effectively
Items will switch themselves off below a customizable threshold to avoid damage
Player can toggle thermal override to disable safety shutdown
Selecting an item allows player to select whether the item will override
Clicking on the background of an inventory panel will display general ship settings (including thermal shutdown threshold)
