 - **The map was already reachable during the tutorial** (its tab exists from the first screen); this step adds the lock and reachability.
 - **Locked locations are labelled "🔒 Name"** on the canvas (they were dimmed already), replacing the earlier "Name?".
 - **Reachability uses sim `checkRoute` (range and landing) from Earth at the current server time,** over `content.purchasableShipModels`, so it changes as planets move. When nothing can reach it the panel says so.

+- **The summary lists every goal currently ready to claim,** not only ones that became ready since the last visit. The server does not track when a goal became ready, and an unclaimed ready goal is worth pointing out on any return.
+- **"Claim on HQ" acknowledges the deliveries and navigates to `/#goals`.**
+- **Web tests wait up to 3 s for elements** (`asyncUtilTimeout`); the 1 s default occasionally ran out under a fully parallel run.

 - [x] **Step 10A.14 — Client: loan on HQ.** HQ's savings goal is replaced: during the tutorial a "Company runs: n of 4" card; afterwards `LoanCard` (balance, paid-off bar, "Pay down" with amounts above credits or balance blocked in the UI). Delivery summaries show "X cr went to the lender". Step 9.1 tutorial-goal tests replaced.
 - [x] **Step 10A.15 — Client: goals on HQ.** `src/components/GoalsCard.tsx` (`#goals`): the next three unclaimed goals with rewards; ready goals have "Claim", which calls `claimGoal`; the refreshed state brings the next goal into view. Hidden during the tutorial.
 - [x] **Step 10A.16 — Client: whole map from the start.** The Map tab works from the first screen (tutorial included); undiscovered locations are labelled with a lock; tapping one shows "Undiscovered — deliver here to unlock" and "Reachable with: …" from the sim route check over purchasable models from Earth (`src/map/reach.ts`).
