feat(net): N6 - ConnectResponse retransmit + fragment assembler eviction

Campaign N Slice N6, the final implementation slice.

ConnectResponse handshake retransmit:
- While the connection is unconfirmed, the Connect character-list pump
  resends the IDENTICAL cleartext ConnectResponse (same sequence 1, same
  cookie, the one encoded datagram - no new outbound state) on retail's
  strict 0.333333333 s gate. Retail: ClientNet::ProcessConnection
  @ 0x00545450, case cs_ConnectionRequestAcked @ 0x0054547B (the constant
  load at 0x00545481; the mask-0x41 strictly-greater x87 test at
  0x0054548C); ClientNet::SendConnectAck @ 0x005440F0 re-stamps
  lastSentHandshake_ (0x00544102) and rebuilds the same cookie packet.
- Confirmation = the first checksum-valid post-negotiation packet whose
  header lacks the ConnectRequest flag: retail's cs_ConnectionRequestAcked
  -> cs_Connected edge (ClientNet::ProcessPacket @ 0x00545100, the 0x40000
  exclusion at 0x0054514E, SetConnectionState(..., 5) at 0x00545160).
- The cadence rides the TransportClock (virtual-clock testable through
  TransportClockSource); the Connect deadline stays wall-clock.
- ACE safety pinned against the N0 model: a duplicate while still
  AuthConnectResponse re-routes idempotently through NetworkManager's
  pre-route; after acceptance CheckState clause 2 drops it pre-CRC at
  zero keystream cost.
- Pre-N6, one lost ConnectResponse was a hang to the Connect deadline;
  the N5 decorator deliberately arms after this window, so nothing
  covered it.

FragmentAssembler eviction (divergence register row AD-52):
- Partials evict 60 s after their last ACCEPTED fragment; the stamp
  refreshes on every new fragment (retail's re-stamp rule,
  ArrivedEphInfo::UpdateNetBlobID @ 0x0054AE00), so a merely-slow partial
  can never age out - 60 s is a floor, not a tunable. Swept from
  ReliableTransport.Sweep on retail's 5 s flush cadence
  (Indicator::FlushTimedOutEphInfo @ 0x0054A3D0, the gate at 0x0054A3DC;
  per-entry ArrivedEphInfo::fTimedOut @ 0x0054AE30). N4's RejectRetransmit
  abandonment made an unrecoverable partial a REACHABLE permanent state;
  the TTL reclaims it.
- A 64-entry completed-sequence ring drops late duplicate fragments of
  already-completed messages instead of allocating a fresh partial that
  can never complete (the completed-then-duplicate leak).

Fold-ins:
- N5 review LOW-5: NetProbeTests + LossyTransportDecoratorTests (the
  static NetDiagnostics / Console.SetOut mutators) share one
  DisableParallelization xunit collection so they never run alongside
  classes constructing WorldSession.
- Campaign section 9: N6 ledger row recorded; N5 row verified carrying
  4e290f00.

Gates: 757 Core.Net Release tests green (10 new); full solution Release
green (0 failures / 5 skips); connected lifecycle gate PASS; the
N5-strengthened connected loss gate PASS on its first live run (2%/seed 1:
dropped out=3 in=10, resends=1 nak-in=1 nak-out=5, cksum-fail=0
sanity-drop=0 uncached-nak=0).

 | AD-48 | **Filed at Campaign V slice V11 (2026-07-29).** Presentation is paced by the Vulkan swapchain present mode (FIFO, i.e. VSync) or by a refresh-rate software pacer when uncapped, rather than by retail's D3D9 `Present` with its own frame-rate limiter. Frame delivery cadence, and therefore input-to-photon latency, is a property of our present path rather than a port of retail's. | `src/AcDream.App/RuntimeOptions.cs:98-100`; `src/AcDream.App/Rendering/Gpu/Vk/VulkanSwapchain.cs` | Retail's limiter and ours both bound the frame rate to the display; the simulation is fixed-step and clock-driven, so gameplay timing does not ride on presentation cadence. The uncapped path exists for measurement and is not the shipping default. | A pacing mismatch shows up as judder or input latency that differs from retail's feel without any visual difference in a captured frame — invisible to every pixel gate by construction. Issue **#235** (the capped/RDP jump-presentation cadence alias) is the known live instance of this class. | D3D9 `IDirect3DDevice9::Present`; retail's frame limiter in `RenderDeviceD3D` |
 | AD-50 | **Filed at Campaign N slice N2 (2026-07-29).** The inbound sequence tracker's watermark (`highestIDReceived_`) initializes to **1**, not retail's zero-init of `ReceiverData`. Watermark INIT only — every mechanism (sanity window, duplicate/parked-key path, gap walk, re-park, RejectRetransmit abandonment) is the verbatim retail port. | `src/AcDream.Core.Net/Transport/InboundSequenceTracker.cs` (`AceInitialWatermark`) | ACE never emits S2C sequence 1: its `PacketSequence` starts unprimed at `uint.MaxValue`, the cleartext ConnectRequest takes NextValue 0, and the first ENCRYPTED flush re-primes CurrentValue to 1 so the first encrypted sequenced packet is 2 (ACE NetworkSession.cs:716-717 + Sequence/UIntSequence.cs:9-13,30-41; pinned by the N0 double and the N2 clean-lifecycle conformance test asserting min encrypted S2C sequence == 2 with zero NAKs). A zero-init watermark would gap-walk the permanent id-1 hole: one spurious NAK, the first pre-drawn word mis-assigned to id 1, and the keystream off by one from the very first encrypted packet. holtburger seeds the same value (crates/holtburger-session/src/session/api.rs:30, `last_server_seq: 1`), mirroring ACE's own C2S-side `lastReceivedPacketSequence = 1` (NetworkSession.cs:57). | Against a hypothetical server that DOES emit sequence 1 as its first encrypted packet (retail's own numbering), init-1 would classify it "not newer" and drop it as a duplicate — the mirror-image wedge. Only ACE-family servers exist for this client today. | `ReceiverData` zero-init (construction inside `SharedNet`; `highestIDReceived_` starts 0); `SharedNet::ProcessNewestSeqNum @ 0x00541930` (the walk that would mis-NAK id 1) |
 | AD-51 | **Filed at Campaign N slice N4 (2026-07-29).** The inbound sequence tracker keeps a reclaimed-word pool (per-parked-word draw ordinals + `PriorityQueue` consumed lowest-draw-order-first) that retail has no counterpart for: on a VALIDATED cleartext `RejectRetransmit`, the word the gap walk parked for the reject packet's OWN sequence is removed, every later-drawn parked word is shifted down one position, and the excess word feeds the next fresh draws. | `src/AcDream.Core.Net/Transport/InboundSequenceTracker.cs` (`OnCleartextRejectSequence`, `NextWord`, `ParkedWord`); trigger at `src/AcDream.Core.Net/WorldSession.cs` (RejectRetransmit consumption) | Retail's inbound invariant is "every missing id was an encrypted packet whose keystream word the server drew" — true against retail servers, whose cleartext packets always borrow live sequences (acks/NAKs reuse `highestIDSent_`; `FlowQueue::TransmitNewPackets @ 0x00547A60` sequences only reliable packets). ACE breaks it in exactly one place: `RejectRetransmit` takes a FRESH sequence through FlushPackets, cleartext, drawing NO S2C keystream word, and is cached (ACE NetworkSession.cs:299-304, :722-725, :743-748). Without the reclaim, our gap walk pre-draws a word for that id, the inbound stream runs permanently one word ahead, and every later encrypted packet fails checksum — the N2 desync class reintroduced through the reject path. The pool is provably empty against a retail server, so retail behavior is untouched. Reject BODY ids keep the N2 discard (their words were drawn on both sides — consumed-in-place). Known unreachable corner: a reject whose own id later appears inside another reject's body (first reject pruned after 120 s of sustained loss with the session alive) would discard a never-drawn word; probabilistically impossible against ACE's 60 s silence timeout and the 0.6 s NAK cadence. | Against a hypothetical non-ACE server that assigns fresh cleartext sequences to packets OTHER than RejectRetransmit, those ids would still mis-park with no reclaim trigger — inbound desync. Only ACE-family servers exist for this client today, and ACE has exactly the one path. | `SharedNet::ProcessNewestSeqNum @ 0x00541930` (the gap walk whose invariant ACE breaks); `SharedNet::HandleEmptyAck @ 0x005448F0` (retail's reject consumption — body ids only, no own-sequence machinery because retail never needs it) |
+| AD-52 | **Filed at Campaign N slice N6 (2026-07-29).** The inbound fragment assembler evicts incomplete partial messages 60 s after their last ACCEPTED fragment (swept on retail's 5 s flush cadence from `ReliableTransport.Sweep`) and remembers the last 64 completed multi-fragment sequences in a ring so a late duplicate fragment of an already-completed message drops instead of allocating a fresh partial that can never complete. Retail's prune target and horizon differ: its 5 s-TTL `FlushTimedOutEphInfo` table holds ephemeral-blob ORDERING stamps (the AD-49 deferral), not partial payloads. | `src/AcDream.Core.Net/Packets/FragmentAssembler.cs` (`SweepExpired`, `PartialTtlSeconds`, `CompletedRingSize`); cadence in `src/AcDream.Core.Net/Transport/ReliableTransport.cs` (`AssemblerSweepSeconds`) | N4's RejectRetransmit abandonment made an unrecoverable partial a REACHABLE permanent state: ACE pruned a fragment-bearing packet from its 120 s S2C cache and told us to stop asking, so that blob can never complete — without a TTL it leaks for the session's lifetime. 60 s is ≫ every recovery horizon (0.6 s NAK cadence, ACE's 2 s ack, the 120 s cache) and the stamp refreshes on every accepted fragment (retail's own re-stamp rule, `ArrivedEphInfo::UpdateNetBlobID @ 0x0054AE00`), so only a server-abandoned partial can age out — a merely-slow one cannot. The ring is bounded (64 × 4 B) and its only false negative (a duplicate arriving after 64 later completions) degrades to the pre-N6 behavior, now reclaimed by the TTL. | If ACE ever legitimately re-served a fragment of a completed message under a REUSED fragment sequence within the ring window, it would be dropped — but fragment sequences are strictly monotonic per session (ACE SessionConnectionData.FragmentSequence), so reuse cannot happen inside one connection. An evicted partial whose fragments later straggle in re-partials and re-evicts — bounded churn, no corruption. | `Indicator::FlushTimedOutEphInfo @ 0x0054A3D0` (the 5.0 s flush gate at 0x0054A3DC); `ArrivedEphInfo::fTimedOut @ 0x0054AE30` (per-entry 5.0 s TTL); `ArrivedEphInfo::UpdateNetBlobID @ 0x0054AE00` (re-stamp on update); retail has no partial-payload TTL — its blob layer trusts its own NAK persistence, which N4's ACE-mandated abandonment (`SharedNet::HandleEmptyAck @ 0x005448F0`) breaks |
 | AD-38 | Outgoing teleport viewports retire when retail's quantized animation level exceeds the last captured visible level 1022 (index 96), suppressing levels 1023/1024 up to 20.2 ms before retail's literal `elapsed >= 1.0` state edge. Incoming fades retain the exact timer. | `src/AcDream.Core/World/TeleportAnimSequencer.cs` (`OutgoingViewportReachedTerminalProjection`) | An uncapped 2000 FPS pass can publish the finite tunnel at levels 1023/1024 even though the paired 2013 retail capture switches viewports after 1022. The table-level cutover preserves the captured visible viewport ordering without throttling the application. | Exit sound, viewport replacement, and logout tunnel entry can occur at most two easing-table quanta (about 20.2 ms) earlier than retail's logical timer. | `UIGlobals::GetAnimLevel @ 0x004EE540`; `gmSmartBoxUI::UseTime @ 0x004D6E30`; paired retail/acdream captures documented in `docs/research/2026-07-15-retail-portal-space-pseudocode.md` |
 | AD-1 | Lost-cell machinery replaced by recoverable outdoor demote (**#107** safety net) + outdoor-restore `max(terrainZ, z)` under-terrain lift; retail goes `GotoLostCell` | `src/AcDream.Core/Physics/PhysicsEngine.cs:553` (+ :808) | acdream has no lost-cell state machine; outdoor landcell is the recoverable equivalent; the #107 auto-entry hold should make the demote branch unreachable | Gap in the hold → player committed to outdoor terrain inside/under a building (fake-grounded spawn, fall-through); a legit below-heightmap server restore is silently lifted — upward warp vs server | `GotoLostCell` pc:283418; `SetPositionInternal` 0x00515bd0, pc:283892-283945 |
 | AD-2 | Async readiness gates replace retail's synchronous destination cell load. **#229 refinement (2026-07-20):** login and F751 portal-space exit now share `WorldRevealReadinessBarrier`, so neither path can expose the normal viewport until the same render-publication, composite-texture, and collision domains converge. A hydratable indoor claim requires its owning Near-tier static/EnvCell mesh set, destination composites, and exact EnvCell physics (`IsSpawnCellReady`); an outdoor claim requires those render domains plus terrain/collision residency for the required Near ring. Hard-recenter generations and tier-aware completion application prevent stale overlapping loads/unloads or Far/Near jobs from opening or erasing the gate; mesh upload remains separate from balanced landblock ownership. Claims beyond NumCells still take the loud unhydratable-placement path. `RuntimeWorldTransitState` owns the shared reveal generation, accepted readiness, transit correlation, and exact generation/cell-scoped host-acknowledgement suffix. `WorldRevealCoordinator` is a graphical adapter holding only App resource receipts; normalized Runtime checkpoints observe ownership without defining another readiness path. **Slice E3 refinement (2026-07-24):** the same generation now publishes an immediate `WorldGenerationQuiescence` edge: old-world drawing/spatial queries, simulation/effect clocks, reconciliation, targeting, and 3-D audio stop while retained physical teardown advances through metered cursors and destination network/UI/streaming/readiness remain live. **Slice E4 refinement (2026-07-24):** accepted render/physics/static publication may span update frames through retained exact cursors, but reveal still consumes only the completed spatial/render-ready generation; building and EnvCell snapshots remain invisible until complete and the final spatial identity swap stays observer-atomic. **Slice E5 refinement (2026-07-24):** the reveal generation owns one exact destination reservation across every typed budget dimension. Stale completion cannot consume or clear its replacement, and hydratable incomplete content is never force-revealed; portal transit retains the DAT tunnel and centered retail wait cue until readiness converges. The hold→materialize→regain-control lifecycle remains owned by `TeleportAnimSequencer`. | `src/AcDream.Runtime/World/RuntimeWorldTransitState.cs`; `src/AcDream.App/Streaming/WorldRevealCoordinator.cs`; `src/AcDream.App/Streaming/WorldGenerationQuiescence.cs`; `src/AcDream.App/Streaming/WorldRevealReadinessBarrier.cs`; `src/AcDream.App/Streaming/StreamingOriginRecenterCoordinator.cs`; `src/AcDream.App/Streaming/LandblockPresentationPipeline.cs`; `src/AcDream.App/Streaming/StreamingController.cs`; `src/AcDream.App/Rendering/PortalTunnelPresentation.cs`; `src/AcDream.App/UI/PortalWaitNoticeController.cs`; `src/AcDream.App/Streaming/GpuWorldState.cs` (`IsRenderReady`); `src/AcDream.App/Rendering/Wb/LandblockSpawnAdapter.cs`; `src/AcDream.Core/Physics/PhysicsEngine.cs` (`IsSpawnCellReady`, `IsNeighborhoodTerrainResident`) | This is the asynchronous equivalent of retail leaving `SmartBox::position_update_complete` false while `CellManager::blocking_for_cells` is set: neither initial login nor portal arrival may reveal or continue simulating an old/partial collision world, a terrain-only Far shell, or a published-but-not-drawable GPU landblock. Indoor does not require a terrain heightmap, only the owning render landblock and exact EnvCell. | Gate opens early → grey/untextured first login or portal reveal, free-fall, wrong-cell rooting, missing scenery, or a still-active old generation; predicate never satisfies (streamer/DAT/upload failure) → login remains behind the world render gate, while portal transit remains in the authored tunnel and presents the centered wait cue after five seconds. | `SmartBox::UseTime` 0x00455410; `gmSmartBoxUI::UseTime` 0x004D6E30; `gmSmartBoxUI::EndTeleportAnimation` 0x004D65A0 |
