 ## Key systems (in main.py unless noted)
 - **Saves**: lantern-only. `save_game` / `apply_save_data`. Quest progress, broken doors, defeated bosses persist ONLY on lantern interaction.
-- **Trigger walls** (`trigger_wall_blocking`): meta keys `quest`, `quest_complete`, `quest_turned_in`, `lock_when_pass` (appears once walked through), `open_on_miniboss_dead`.
+- **Trigger walls** (`trigger_wall_blocking`): meta keys `quest`, `quest_complete`, `quest_turned_in`, `lock_when_pass` (appears once walked through), `open_on_miniboss_dead`, `open_on_boss_dead` (released once the room's boss is slain; also hides/inerts moving platforms while the boss lives).
+- **Exits**: `"requires_boss_dead": true` hides the exit and disables it while the room's boss is alive (used for boss doors and refight rooms). The editor round-trips this flag (checkbox in the Exit properties).
+- **Bosses** (`BOSS_DEFS_DEFAULT`): `boss_id -> {name, room, refight_room, token_name, token_sprite}`. `boss_01` = Gloom Warden (legacy `room_boss_01`, not in the current build); `boss_02` = **Sky Terror** (flying, `room_08`, refight `room_boss_fly_refight`). A boss drops its token in its world room (not during a refight); tokens feed the Boss Diary (`boss_diary`) and the Combat Master upgrades them for the Hard fight. Token art is per-boss via `boss_token_sprite(boss_id)`.
+- **Boss aggro**: once the player first enters a boss's `detection_range` in Light form, `Enemy.boss_engaged` latches and the boss chases forever (ignores range and Shade).
+- **Flying boss** (`behavior: "flyer"`, config `enemy_types.json` → `boss_flyer.flyer`): hovers/bobs, slam-dives (shockwave `poison=False`), summons expiring minions, AOE rings, homing shots. Casts `_flyer_max_casts()` skills per slam-cycle — normal 1 (2 at `phase2_hp_pct`), hard 2 (3 at `hard_phase3_hp_pct`); `self.flyer_hard` is set by `start_refight(..., "hard")`.
 - **Ability doors** (`AbilityDoor`): `kind` = `"ranged"` (shot open, persists in `broken_doors`) or `"shade"` (solid in light, passable in shade + a `shade_door_grace` window after form switch; ejected to nearest edge after grace).
 - **Quests** (`QUEST_DEFS_DEFAULT`): objective `"shade": True` counts kills only in shade form. Rewards via `guaranteed_item` (one-time) or `pool` (repeatable). Items by `item_id` (e.g. `necklace_placeholder` = "Plain Necklace").
 - **Minibosses**: stay defeated per room (`DEFEATED_MINIBOSSES`) until a lantern save in a different room, then respawn.

 ### Cut
 - Ascended armor (removed).
 
+## Map system (deferred — brainstorm, not started)
+
+Feels huge; split into two independent features rather than one.
+
+1. **Current-room minimap** — cheap and self-contained: scale `room_bounds` + platform rects + a player arrow into a corner/overlay panel. No new data, no persistence. Good first slice.
+2. **World map / region graph** — nodes = rooms, edges = `exits[]` (derivable automatically from room JSON rather than hand-authored).
+
+Design notes
+- **Layout**: add `meta.map_x` / `meta.map_y` (+ optional `meta.region`) per room and place nodes in the editor; fall back to auto-layout from exit topology if absent.
+- **Discovery**: persist `visited_rooms` and `discovered_links` alongside the existing lantern-only save data. Undiscovered = "?" / fog.
+- **Theme hook**: map clear in Light, fogged/faded in Shade, or fog dispelled by lanterns — reinforces the light/shade identity (keep it cosmetic).
+- **Fairy as cartographer**: she fills in rooms and comments on new ones; reuses her room-aware voice lines and mirrors the Boss Diary UI pattern.
+- **Fast travel**: discovered lanterns become warp nodes; overlaps with the deferred "rune stones" / "fairy bond teleport" items.
+- **Edge cases**: one-way exits, boss-refight rooms, the missing `room_town_gloomreach.json`, exits with empty `to` (ignore), multiple entry spawns = one node.
+
+Phasing
+1. Current-room minimap overlay.
+2. `visited_rooms` + world map from auto-derived exit links (auto-positioned).
+3. Manual `map_x/map_y` layout in the editor.
+4. Lantern fast travel + fairy-bond teleport.
+
 ## Dependencies
 
 - Save is the keystone: death penalty, main menu, and any progress feature hang off it.
