Four more batches: the racket zombie's two wound stages with their stride twins,
the umpire and the ball boy's sprint, his mop-carry walk and his mopping cycle.
Detail roughly doubles on all of them.
Also stripped the last dozen key-colour pixels off p_die5's rim — edge pixels
only, because a racket's strings are legitimately pink and a blanket filter
would eat them.
The brute's wound stages and the chair spectator are re-running as smaller
sheets: four figures carrying a dragged pole or a held-up chair either merge
into one frame or run off the canvas whatever margin the prompt demands, so
they go two at a time.

Both full sets through the same pipeline: stances and ball-bounce, serve toss,
smash and both swing frames, the four-frame run, and the five-frame death. The
opponent's ten frames with them. Inner-edge density roughly doubles across the
board — the serve frames go 0.22-0.32 to 0.41-0.54.
_regen.py retries a rejected batch itself now (default three attempts). A
rejection is usually just a bad roll — two figures drawn close enough that the
slicer sees one frame, or a limb off the canvas — and re-rolling fixes it without
me sitting in the loop.

Two of the same mistake, both called out.
The wounded feet still did not move because a mirror cannot move them: flipping
the legs swaps WHICH leg leads but keeps the two feet in the same two places, so
the spacing never changes and the body still slides. Measured it — mirrored feet
sat at -35/59 against the original's -34.5/60.5. What a walk actually needs is
the PASSING pose, feet together under the body, so the gap opens and closes.
Drawn now for all three wounded skins: 75->65, 95->68, 79->69 px between the
feet. (The mirror also clipped the steward's hanging arm into a floating
fragment, which is what Oliver spotted. Gone with it.)
The death was one sprite scaled down, which miniaturises a man rather than
killing him. It is five drawn frames now — arched back, knees, hands, face down
in the pool, a flat heap — each genuinely shorter than the last (100/84/60/47/20%
of standing height, common-scaled off one sheet) and each drawn at its own
height. No scaling anywhere in the sequence.
