no stick direction moved the player (after the probe held input for the wait cap, 12 s of simulated time by default)

## What to do

check the player reads the move action and calls ctx.controller.move, and that no menu context owns the input; a player frozen at the start longer than the cap emits controls-live and declares it with playtest.controlsLive on its script props (playtest.controlsWaitSec raises the cap, at most 30)
