How it fits. The simulation is deterministic from the baked world; a ghost is a recorded pose and stance stream, replayed through the same interpolation as a remote player. Local runs need no server; a shared ghost can ride the event or record board. The ghost is drawn with the existing avatar or vehicle model at low opacity.

Scope.

Record a run on foot, a vehicle or the drone.
Replay it as a ghost with a small time delta.
A best-run slot per course and per vehicle kind.
An on/off toggle and a ghost opacity.
Share a ghost through the records board once that exists.

Related. #196 (replay theater), #179 (Grand Prix), #214 (drone), #200 (records).

A best time is a number; a ghost is a rival. Recording the player's best run and replaying it as a translucent body makes practice feel like a race, whether the run is on foot, on a bike or through the drone gates. It is the cheapest kind of multiplayer: you against yourself. **How it fits.** The simulation is deterministic from the baked world; a ghost is a recorded pose and stance stream, replayed through the same interpolation as a remote player.
