📝 update CHANGELOG for Issue #22

CHANGE_TILE only called worldSystem.setTile() (built-tile layer only),
never refreshTerrainTile() — so chopped trees stayed visually dark-green
(FOREST color) even though the tile type was already DARK_GRASS.

- adapter.onAction for CHANGE_TILE now also calls refreshTerrainTile()
  → all tile transitions (chop, mine, seedling maturation) update the
    canvas pixel immediately and consistently in one place
- Remove now-redundant explicit refreshTerrainTile() call in
  TreeSeedlingSystem (the adapter handler covers it)
- Tile-recovery path in GameScene (stateManager.tickTileRecovery) is
  NOT routed through the adapter, so its manual refreshTerrainTile()
  call is kept as-is

 ## [Unreleased]
 
+### Fixed
+- **Nisse idle loop** (Issue #22): Nisse no longer retry unreachable trees/rocks in an infinite 1.5 s loop — `pickJob` now skips resources with no adjacent passable tile via `hasAdjacentPassable()`; pathfind-fail cooldown raised to 4 s
+- **Resource-based passability** (Issue #22): FOREST and ROCK terrain tiles are only impassable when a tree/rock resource occupies them — empty forest floor and rocky ground are now walkable; `WorldSystem` maintains an O(1) `resourceTiles` index kept in sync at runtime
+- **Terrain canvas not updating** (Issue #22): `CHANGE_TILE` now calls `refreshTerrainTile()` centrally via the adapter handler, fixing the visual glitch where chopped trees left a dark FOREST-coloured pixel instead of DARK_GRASS
+- **Stockpile panel** (Issue #20): panel background now uses `uiOpacity` and updates live when Settings opacity changes; panel height increased so the Nisse count row no longer overlaps the carrot row
+- **ESC menu** (Issue #20): internal bottom padding corrected — last button now has 16px gap to panel edge instead of 0px
+
 ### Added
-- Right-click context menu: suppresses browser default, shows Build and Folks actions in the game world
+- **Overlay Opacity Setting** (Issue #16): all UI overlay backgrounds (build menu, villager panel, context menu, ESC menu, confirm dialog, Nisse info panel, debug panel) now use a central `uiOpacity` value instead of hardcoded alphas
+- **Settings Screen**: ESC menu → Settings now opens a real overlay with an overlay-opacity row (− / value% / + step buttons, range 40 %–100 %, default 80 %); setting persisted in `localStorage` under `tg_ui_settings`, separate from game save so New Game does not wipe it
+
+### Added
+- **Unified Tile System** (Issue #14):
+  - Tree seedlings: player plants `tree_seed` on grass/dark-grass via the F-key farming tool; seedling grows through two stages (sprout → sapling → young tree, ~1 min each); on maturity it becomes a FOREST tile with a harvestable tree resource
+  - Tile recovery: when a Nisse chops a tree, the resulting DARK_GRASS tile starts a 5-minute recovery timer and reverts to GRASS automatically, with the terrain canvas updated in real time
+  - Three new procedural seedling textures (`seedling_0/1/2`) generated in BootScene
+  - `tree_seed` added to stockpile display (default 5 at game start) and to the farming tool cycle
+  - `WorldSystem.refreshTerrainTile()` updates the terrain canvas for a single tile without regenerating the full background
+  - New `TreeSeedlingSystem` manages seedling sprites, growth ticking, and maturation
+
+### Added
+- **Nisse Info Panel** (Issue #9): clicking a Nisse opens a top-left panel with name, AI status, energy bar, active job, job priority buttons, and a live work log (last 10 of 20 runtime entries); closes with ESC, ✕ button, or by clicking another Nisse
+- Work log tracks: walking to job, hauling to stockpile, going to sleep, waking up, chopped/mined/farmed results, deposited at stockpile
+- **ESC Menu** (Issue #7): pressing ESC when no overlay is open shows a pause menu with Save Game, Load Game, Settings (placeholder), and New Game; New Game requires confirmation before wiping the save
+- ESC key now follows a priority stack: confirmation dialog → context menu → build menu → villager panel → Nisse info panel → ESC menu → (build/farm mode handled by their systems) → open ESC menu
+
+### Added
+- **F3 Debug View**: toggleable overlay showing FPS, tile type and contents under the cursor, Nisse count by AI state, active jobs by type, and pathfinding visualization (cyan lines in world space)
+
+### Fixed
+- Nisse now clear the FOREST/ROCK tile after harvesting, opening paths to deeper resources
+- Nisse no longer get stuck idle after depositing items at the stockpile
+- Working Nisse now reset to idle on game load (like walking ones), preventing stale AI state
+- Stale jobs with empty carry are now cleared after work completes, avoiding a false "haul to stockpile" loop
+- UI elements (stockpile panel, controls hint) now reposition correctly after window resize
+- Centered overlay panels (build menu, villager panel) close on resize so they reopen at the correct position
+- Mouse world coordinates now use `ptr.worldX`/`ptr.worldY` in BuildingSystem and FarmingSystem, fixing misalignment after resize or zoom
+
+### Changed
+- Villagers are now called **Nisse** throughout the UI (panel, controls hint, stockpile display, context menu, spawn message)
+
+### Added
+- Scroll wheel zooms toward the mouse cursor position (zoom-to-mouse), correctly accounting for Phaser's center-based zoom model
+- Middle mouse button held: pan the camera by dragging
+- Test environment at `/test.html` with `ZoomTestScene` (Phaser default) and `ZoomMouseScene` (zoom-to-mouse) for camera behaviour analysis; file-logging via Vite middleware to `game-test.log`
+
+### Fixed
+- `getCenterWorld()` in `CameraSystem` returned wrong world coordinates at zoom ≠ 1; corrected from `scrollX + width/(2·zoom)` to `scrollX + width/2`
+- Right-click context menu: suppresses browser default, shows Build and Nisse actions in the game world
 - Initial project setup: Phaser 3 + TypeScript + Vite
 - Core scenes: `BootScene`, `GameScene`, `UIScene`
 - Systems: `BuildingSystem`, `CameraSystem`, `FarmingSystem`, `PlayerSystem`,
