cell_solid and feet_blocked go, and so does the prediction in the player's
movementlogicfunc. That prediction was only ever exact because the town has zero
gravity and zero drag -- v is t, so `x + tx * dt` is where the step lands. A map
with gravity would have had to fold ey in as well, which is the game
re-implementing the integrator. Resolution runs after the move now, so there is
nothing to predict.
The map's decoration layer carries `collidable`, which retires JRPG_LAYER_SOLID:
akgl_TilemapLayer has no name member, so the game and the map had to agree on an
index out of band and inserting a layer in Tiled broke it.
The edge of the world is not on any layer, so it is four static proxies covering
the outer ring plus a tile of overhang -- one pool slot per side instead of a
hundred solid tiles, and the first use of the static-proxy path in either
example. They carry LAYER_STATIC explicitly: shape_box defaults a shape to
LAYER_ACTOR, and a wall left on that layer is a wall everything walks through.
Only the player gets a shape. NPCs stand still and are spoken to; the follower
is a child snapped to its parent every step.
Verified against the old implementation with the demo script rewritten to hold
one direction: holding left into a building stops the player at x=122 with both,
and holding up into the map's edge stops them at y=-4 with both.

collision.c was 383 lines that re-implemented akgl_physics_simulate's own
arithmetic, because movementlogicfunc runs before gravity, drag and the move
and so had to predict where the actor would end up. The whole file goes. What
replaces it is three lines in main.c, a shape on the player and the blob, and a
`collidable` property on the map's terrain layer -- which also retires
SS_TERRAIN_LAYER_ID, a compiled-in layer id that broke whenever somebody
reordered layers in Tiled.
grounded stays a probe rather than becoming a contact test. A contact says
something pushed back this step; grounded asks whether there is a floor to push
off, and that stays true through the frame after landing. The blob keeps its own
wall and ledge probes for the same reason: the resolver does not say which side
of the blob it was pushed from, and says nothing at all about a floor that is
missing.
The summary line now carries the player's resting position, because exiting 0
was not evidence that collision ran. It reports 136.0,160.0 grounded after 240
autoplay frames -- feet at y=192, flush on the surface of terrain row 12.
The tutorial's collision section is rewritten around the library's, keeping the
quarter-of-a-pixel story as what a predicting resolver costs. The docs harness
learns `json excerpt=`, so the map property the chapter quotes is checked
against the map.

A pure rename plus link rewrite and nothing else. Collision is a pluggable
subsystem with two implementations, shapes, a response hook and a tile binding;
that is a chapter, and burying it inside the physics chapter is the shape this
manual otherwise avoids -- rendering and drawing are 8 and 9, spritesheets and
characters and actors are 10, 11 and 12.
Kept separate from writing the chapter because **nothing validates a
cross-reference target.** The example harness reads fenced blocks; it does not
follow links. A rename mixed into five hundred lines of new prose is not
reviewable, and a broken link would land silently. As its own commit it is
reviewable as a rename, and a grep for dangling `](NN-` targets is clean.
