Aurelius Protocol: Genre Card Game NEVER List

• NEVER hardcode card logic inside UI scripts; strictly encapsulate gameplay effects in Callable objects or Command resources pushed to a LIFO stack.
• NEVER perform board-state calculations (Power/Toughness) in _process(); strictly use Signal-driven triggers or a centralized EffectStack resolver.
• NEVER forget LIFO Stack Resolution; strictly use Array.push_back() and Array.pop_back() to resolve reactions from top-to-bottom.
• NEVER skip Z-Index management during drag-and-drop; strictly raise the card to the front on click to prevent it sliding under other cards.
• NEVER allow instant card "teleportation" between piles; strictly use Tween animations (0.2s+) to give cards a tactile, physical feel.
• NEVER use global_position for cards in hand; strictly position them using a Curve2D (Bezier) layout with sample_baked() for smooth, non-circular arcs.
• NEVER allow instant card "teleportation" between piles; strictly use create_tween() and tween_property chainings (0.2s+) for juicy card-feel.
• NEVER forget to handle Empty Deck scenarios; strictly implement auto-reshuffle of the discard pile to prevent soft-locks.
• NEVER use floating point numbers for discrete card stats; strictly use int for Costs, Attack, and Health to avoid precision drift.
• NEVER use standard Control nodes for mass tokens/battlefields; strictly use _draw() custom drawing to bypass SceneTree overhead when rendering 100+ cards or map icons.
• NEVER rely on SceneTree order for hand logic; strictly manage logical order in an Array and update visuals via queue_redraw().
• NEVER erase array elements during a standard for loop; strictly iterate in reverse or use filter() to avoid indexing errors.
• NEVER forget to provide parameterless constructors in _init(); otherwise, Resources will fail to load in the Inspector.
