Each of these was temporary apparatus added to chase one bug, and each was
supposed to be deleted in the commit that fixed it. Fourteen closed issues
later they were still here: #337's support/wire-mesh trio, #171's sticky
timeline, #119's viewer and entity dumps, #113's phantom probe, and a dozen
more. 3,493 lines removed; the client now reads 144 environment variables
instead of 161, and 47 temporary probes remain instead of 64.
This is not only tidying. Every probe leaves a branch on its hot path when
unset, several re-read the environment per call rather than caching, and
the volume buries the diagnostics that are actually load-bearing. It is
also a headless correctness matter: HeadlessStaticStateAudit reflects over
PhysicsDiagnostics' flags to refuse a multi-session host when any is set,
and cannot see probes that live outside that owner.
Four files went entirely — WalkMissDiagnostic.cs, CollisionMeshWireframe.cs
and two test files whose only subject was a deleted probe.
TransitionTypes.SetContactPlane also sheds its CallerMemberName /
CallerLineNumber parameters, which existed solely for #337's cpSrc=
attribution and carried the instruction to strip them with the probe
family; no call site passed them, so no behavior changes. F2's collision
overlay survives and reverts to its proxy-cylinder form, which is what
removing the ACDREAM_WIRE_MESH upgrade means.
LaunchOptionsDocumentationTests earned its keep here: it refused the
deletion until docs/launch-options.md moved the 17 rows into Retired and
the frozen direct-read counts came down (PhysicsEngine.cs to zero,
TransitionTypes.cs 3 to 2). The documentation could not drift during a
cleanup this wide.
The 14 probes that name no owning issue are deliberately NOT deleted.
Nothing records when they became safe to remove, and guessing is how a
future investigation loses apparatus it needed; #435 stays open for their
attribution.
Full hermetic suite 15,321 passed / 0 failed.

Stage 0's measurement (previous commit) says the projection is redundant,
so AD-10 retires by deletion rather than by narrowing.
The measurement. With the sample forced to null at BOTH fork sites, from a
clean build:
* a remote running 30 ticks down a 31-degree walkable ramp produces a
BIT-IDENTICAL trajectory, position for position;
* on an 8.4-degree ramp the two differ by at most 2.8e-5 m in Z after 30
ticks (0.03 mm) and are identical in X and Y — float ordering noise
from projecting twice against the same plane rather than once;
* the whole AcDream.Runtime.Tests suite is unchanged.
That is what redundancy looks like, and the arithmetic explains it. The
boundary projection and Transition.AdjustOffset are the same operation
(v -= N * dot(v, N)) against the same plane, and the composition is
idempotent: a vector already on the plane has dot(v, N) == 0, so the
sweep's own projection is a no-op on an already-projected offset and the
full-strength projection on an unprojected one. Either alone produces the
same offset. On terrain a THIRD mechanism, ValidateWalkable's push-out,
re-seats the sphere on the plane every sub-step regardless.
Deleted:
* both RuntimeRemotePhysicsUpdater sample sites (the host and no-host
fork branches carried the block verbatim — the AP-22 shape, a row
naming one site where two exist);
* the terrainNormal parameter and projection block on
RemoteMotionCombiner.ComposeOffset;
* the same block on ComputeOffset, which has no production callers but
held a second copy of the divergence, so leaving it would have made
the row's retirement false;
* PhysicsEngine.SampleTerrainNormal, now callerless.
Removing the parameter rather than passing null is deliberate: it is what
makes a future one-site-only regression a compile error instead of a
silent half-fix.
Two tests went with it —
ComputeOffset_RootMotionFallback_SlopedTerrainNormal_ProjectsZOntoSlope and
its flat-ground twin. Both were weak on their own terms: they drove the
production-dead ComputeOffset and computed their expected values by
re-implementing the projection formula, so they could catch a wrong
MULTIPLY but never a wrong PLANE — which is exactly what the divergence
was. The surviving coverage is geometric and runs the production tick.
Three claims in the old row did not survive contact with the code and are
recorded in the retired row rather than quietly dropped: the justification
(remotes do run the sweep); the description of ComposeOffset's guard as
"interpolation-active" when the code reads `if (!interpolationOverwrote`;
and the roof clause, stale since Bug B gated the sample on OnWalkable —
a steep roof is OnWalkable == false, so the path never ran on #32's
geometry. The retail anchor is corrected too: pc:272296-272346 truncated
both the sliding-normal validity gate at the head and the entire safety
push-out block at the tail. The whole function is 0x0050a370,
pc:272271-272393.
This does not fix#32 and does not partially fix it. #32's remote half was
already closed at 204d0ae0. What deletion does improve is the case #32
never covered: a remote on a WALKABLE non-terrain surface — a bridge, a
dock, a gentle roof, a ramp inside a building — where the terrain sample
returned the plane of the ground far below and applied a wrong plane
rather than none. That surface now gets the body's own committed contact
plane, because that is the only projection left.
The planning contract this work executed is committed alongside as
docs/research/2026-08-06-ad10-contract.md.
Release build 0 errors. Complete solution suite 11,196 passed / 4 skipped

Visual gate outstanding: G1 (the ~5 Hz staircase on rolling terrain) is
the veto criterion and runs first; then slope-descent smoothness, a
walkable non-terrain surface, the #32 roof scenario, and flat ground.

Flips the last remote classification (SetPosition: teleport-advanced and
cell-less) onto 4b-1's RuntimeRemotePlacementDriveController, runs retail's
teleport_hook before the placement, and deletes the legacy remote-teleport
machinery. Contract: docs/research/2026-08-04-c4-route-4b-3-contract.md.
Retail: MoveOrTeleport @0x00516330's branch @0x00516386 -> teleport_hook
@0x005163EF -> SetFlags(0x1012) @0x00516414 -> SetPosition @0x00516420 ->
return 1 @0x00516438. The hook @0x00514ED0 runs BEFORE the placement and
regardless of its outcome. Retail places this branch unconditionally, at any
distance and any contact state (arg4 is read only @0x0051638E, after the
branch) — which is what retires AP-137's cell-less enqueue-vs-place delta.
D1 — the classifier's cell-less input is now the PRE-merge committed cell.
Retail's predicate is `this_1->cell == 0`, the BODY's own cell at
MoveOrTeleport entry (this_1 is assigned from this @0x00516334). acdream fed
the POST-merge canonical.FullCellId, which RefreshSnapshot ->
RefreshDerivedState -> SetFullCell has already stamped with the accepted wire
cell; a zero wire cell fails validation into RejectedData first. The shipped
remote cell-less predicate was therefore dead code, not merely different from
remotePlacementRequired. Threaded via a builder overload; route 1's overload
is untouched. The graphical !IsSpatiallyVisible arm of
projectionRequiresTeleportHook is deleted — a presentation predicate with no
retail analogue that fired the teleport machinery on a routine hot path.
Deleted: RemoteTeleportController (605), RemoteTeleportPlacement (85),
RemoteShadowPlacementSynchronizer (49), their 1,709 lines of tests, the
remotePlacementRequired predicate, the TeleportHookRequired plumbing, the
legacy pre-operation ConstrainTo fallback, and the player arm's legacy
!IsGrounded fallback. Net -2,030 lines.
Structural fix (two independent Opus reviews, round 1 FAIL/FAIL): three of the
four MAJORs were one defect — OnPosition carried two parallel inline copies of
the routing tail (player-guid, NPC-guid) that had drifted. Extracted
RunRemoteArmTail (3 call sites) and ApplyWireAirborneLeftoverBookkeeping (2),
both branches now share one implementation.
A1 ToConstraintArm mapped AirborneSnap -> AirborneNoOperation, so the NPC
arm armed ConstrainTo ZERO times for an out-of-contact wire-grounded
creature — a regression this slice introduced while closing a
structurally identical hole. Now maps to NearInterpolate; switch made
total with a throwing default proven unreachable.
R1 D2's write-nothing shape existed on the player arm only; NPC packets
fell through and wrote the body. Retail makes no player/NPC distinction.
R2 report_collision_end(this,1) @0x00514F31 was bound to
ShadowObjects.Suspend, a port of a DIFFERENT retail function
(remove_shadows_from_cells) that teleport_hook never calls. Now routes
to RuntimeCollisionReportingState.LeaveWorld, which wraps the private
ForceEnd in an admission-blocking transaction so a DoCollisionEnd
callback cannot recreate the contact table.
R3/A2 A teleported NPC synthesized ServerVelocity from the teleport distance
(~1,000+ m/s) and planned a run cycle from it. Both the install and
RemoteServerControlledVelocityCycle.Apply now gate on !isTeleportRoute.
BISECT HAZARD — A1's fix is correct only BECAUSE R1 landed. AirborneSnap is
reachable wire-airborne on the NPC arm only while D2's shape is missing there.
Reverting R1 alone silently inverts A1 into the opposite divergence: arming
where retail returns 0. Revert both or neither.
Also in the velocity hunk: the NPC block's two !IsPlayerGuid(update.Guid)
guards were dropped when it was wrapped in `if (!isTeleportRoute)`. Safe — all
five exit paths of the enclosing IsPlayerGuid block return, so the predicate is
unconditionally false below it — but it was unremarked by both reviews.
Register: AP-137 REWRITTEN (not deleted) to the surviving acdream-only
divergences — null classification during the login window and Rejected*
through UnroutedCatchUp keep a row. AD-42's RemoteTeleportController citation
retired; AP-136/AP-138 writer lists corrected to the two surviving non-Position
rebucket writers; AP-138 gains the teleport arm as a second producer of the
visible-without-collision residual (retirement path remains #309). AP-135 is
untouched and its two airborne bookkeeping writes are preserved on both arms.
AP-131 does not retire; #276 does not close.
Proof obligation 1: ParkCollisionResidents' overlap throw stays unreachable —
the teleport arm adds packets to the same TryBeginExclusiveAuthoredPlacement
one-operation-per-key machinery the far arm uses, opens no new operation shape,
and every DeferredCell outcome cancels synchronously with
restoreCancelledPark: true. The guarded property remains
HasOldPrefixPlacementDebt's stall, not a throw (4b-1's B2 caveat stands).
Correction to an earlier claim: LiveEntityPresentationController's
_activePlacementOwners was NOT write-never at HEAD —
remotePlacementRequired -> BeginPlacement -> Begin -> BeginAuthoritativePlacement
was a live writer chain. It becomes write-never BECAUSE this slice deletes that
chain, which is why deleting the dead half is behaviour-preserving.
Probe: ACDREAM_PROBE_REMOTE_TELEPORT=1 emits one [remote-teleport] line per
routed arm (guid, cause, hook-ran, placement status). TEMPORARY, strip with the
probe family.
Carried, disclosed not fixed: no dedicated bidirectional collision-partner test
for R2 (the wiring, not LeaveWorld itself, is what lacks coverage); the
stress test's teleport step drives hand-written field assignments rather than
the canonical arm; the per-packet runTeleportHook closure allocation (network
path, not the resolve path Slice I's 0 B discipline governs — file before
route 5 adds a fourth call site). B2: IRuntimeCollisionReportObserver has zero
production implementations, so retail's bidirectional DoCollisionEnd half still
reaches no gameplay consumer — this fix closes the wrong-function binding, not
that nobody listens.
Complete Release suite MEASURED at 11,013 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed
(baseline 11,027/4/0; net -14 = ~33 deleted test cases against ~19 added).
Neither known flake fired (#302 PortalProjectionTests GC-allocation, #308
NakEmissionTests wall-clock).
STILL OWED: the two-client connected gate, which MUST use an NPC/creature
teleport target. Both round-1 MAJORs lived on the NPC arm and the velocity
cycle early-returns for 0x50xxxxxx guids, so a player target structurally
cannot observe A1, A2, or R3.

A remote observed in acdream landed on a sloped roof and froze; the server slid
on, the gap passed AP-87's 4 m threshold, and the body snapped — the visible
blip. Live probe capture, two adjacent ticks 63 ms apart:
t=88420671 rsInContact=True rsOnWalkable=False rsIsOnGround=True
bodyCpNz=0.6097 floorZ=0.6642 steep=True gravity=True
vel=(2.146,2.264,-3.549)
t=88420734 contact=True onWalkable=True <- forced against the sweep
gravity=False <- cleared
velBeforeZero=(2.146,2.264,0.000)
moved=0.0000 <- and every tick after
The roof is 52.4 degrees against a 48.4 degree limit, so acdream's classifier
was CORRECT and was then overruled. Four independent links each froze the body
on their own: a per-tick force of Contact|OnWalkable, a per-tick velocity zero,
a Gravity clear at landing, and a landing edge testing IsOnGround
(= inContact || ...) instead of OnWalkable. The tick called
HandleAllCollisions alone — the tail of SetPositionInternal without its prefix.
Retail simulates remotes locally and derives these bits rather than asserting
them: CPhysics::UseTime @0x00509950 iterates the whole object table;
update_object @0x00515D10 gates only on parent/cell/FROZEN with no
is_player fork; SetPositionInternal @0x00515330 sets CONTACT from
contact_plane_valid @0x00515430 and ON_WALKABLE from contact_plane.N.z vs
floor_z @0x00515465-@0x0051548E before handle_all_collisions @0x005154FE;
set_on_walkable @0x00511310 fires HitGround @0x00511364 / LeaveGround
@0x00511346 edge-triggered with no ownership gate; calc_acceleration
@0x00510950 zeroes only when CONTACT && ON_WALKABLE && !Sledding @0x0051096B;
calc_friction @0x0050EE70 returns at its first line when ON_WALKABLE is clear.
acdream had copied retail's airborne no-op WITHOUT retail's local simulation.
The fix is mostly deletion: stop forging the transients, stop discarding the
authoritative velocity, stop clearing Gravity, and route the remote tick
through the same SetPositionInternal commit TickHidden and the local player
already use, with the landing edge derived from the sweep's own OnWalkable.
AP-87's threshold and conditions and InterpolationManager's node_fail_counter
snap-to-tail are deliberately untouched — this removes the CAUSE of the
divergence rather than weakening the backstop.
Cross-checked against ACE: its only creature-side VectorUpdate emitters are the
jump broadcast and spell projectiles, so integrating the wire velocity cannot
double-move a walking remote; and PhysicsGlobals.DefaultState already carries
Gravity, so deleting the manufactured State |= Gravity is safe.
Register: AP-81 narrowed (its GRAVITY half retired outright), AP-87 annotated,
AP-139 filed (the interpolation-queue clear on the landing edge), AP-140 filed
(the two routing gates select snap-vs-interpolate on walkability where retail
uses CONTACT — adjust_offset @0x00555D30 gates on transient_state & 1
@0x00555D52). AP-140's follow-up is deliberately shaped as "point the two gates
at Body.InContact", NOT "re-derive Airborne", which would perturb five writers
and collide with a pinned RemoteTeleportPlacementTests assertion.
Three gaps recorded in #32 rather than papered over: the new LeaveGround
dispatch is untested for chatter; a persistently !Ok transition can latch a
remote airborne; and — the visual-gate watch item — the deleted forge was a
blanket guarantee of Contact|OnWalkable, and contact_allows_move @0x00528dd0
silently refuses action animations without both, which is the literal root
cause of closed#270. Retail-correct on a steep face, a regression anywhere
else.
10 discriminating tests over a real PhysicsEngine landblock whose contact
normal Z is 0.61 against FloorZ 0.6642 — the live roof's exact relationship.
Suite 11,019 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed. Includes the temporary
ACDREAM_PROBE_REMOTE_LANDING / ACDREAM_PROBE_REMOTE_SLIDE probe family that
produced the capture above; strip with the family.

The user live-tested route 4a and reported two defects on player remotes: a
remote holds the falling animation after landing before finally landing, and a
remote jumping onto a house plants on the roof where retail slides off, then
blips to the slid-down position.
Neither is a route 4a regression. Do NOT revert 44830a0e — reverting would
restore the per-packet render slam 4a removed without touching either defect.
Bug B's root cause is identified and already covered by open issue #32, whose
text names both symptoms in one sentence. Both landing sites assert
TransientState |= Contact | OnWalkable unconditionally, where retail derives it
from the contact plane — CPhysicsObj::SetPositionInternal @0x00515330
(`if (contact_plane.N.z < floor_z) set_on_walkable(0) else set_on_walkable(1)`).
A steep roof is contact but NOT on_walkable; asserting both suppresses the slide
response, so the body sits until the server's positions walk 4 m away and
AP-87's threshold snaps it. That is the blip. Verified byte-identical pre-4a via
`git show 19d95094:`.
Bug B's *visible shape* IS 4a's: pre-4a every packet slammed the render entity
to the wire pose, so a stuck body flickered toward the true sliding position
5-10x per second — jitter rather than a clean hold.
Bug A stops at the goal's stop-condition rather than getting a speculative fix.
Three hypotheses with non-overlapping fixes; picking wrong means changing a
retail-ported gate on a guess. Retail's mechanism is already fully decoded, so
what is missing is OUR runtime state — no cdb trace against retail is needed.
Adds ACDREAM_PROBE_REMOTE_LANDING (PhysicsDiagnostics, read once at startup per
the diagnostic-owner rule, one bool check when off). It logs both landing sites
immediately before HitGround, and — the most diagnostic signal — emits a
separate line when a site is reached but the gravity gate is about to no-op,
which is hypothesis 1 (a wholesale Body.State write wiping the transient Gravity
bit mid-air, exactly AP-81's stated risk). Temporary instrumentation, marked for
stripping once the evidence is in.
Evidence recorded rather than new bugs filed: #32 gains the observation, the
root cause and the #173/AD-10 dependency caveat; AP-87 gains a live instance of
its stated risk; AD-10's stale file:line is corrected to RemoteMotionCombiner
with a note that its terrain-only normal cannot see a house roof at all.
Also files #308 — a SECOND flaky test, distinct from #302, which was twice
misattributed to it before being written down. #302 is a GC-allocation assertion
in App.Tests; #308 is a wall-clock deadline loop in Core.Net.Tests that fails
only under full-suite CPU contention (0 failures in 4 isolated runs). Conflating
them hides one, and an agent told to "ignore the known flake" would wave through
a real transport regression.

Retail calls CPhysicsObj::report_exhaustion from exactly one site -
CommandInterpreter::HandleExhaustion (0x006b3c70), a notification handler
for the stamina-exhaustion EVENT. Campaign P P1 wired it to every
movement-stats application instead (every stamina regen/drain tick), and
each call re-dispatches the current movement state through the animation
sink - truncating any in-flight action animation. The diagnostic session
log shows 490 spurious casting-stance re-queues in one short session:
'sometimes stuck in spell animations' was every stamina tick that
collided with a cast gesture's play window.
The re-apply now fires only when the exhausted state (stamina == 0)
transitions, matching retail's event semantics. Stats still reach
PlayerWeenie immediately via RuntimeMovementSkillProjection.ApplyTo.
Also adds the [remote-edge] probe (rides ACDREAM_DUMP_MOTION=1): one
line per remote HitGround/LeaveGround - each such edge drains the
mover's pending action animations (retail HandleEnterWorld), the
working theory for intermittently missing monster attack swings.

Ports CMotionInterp::get_adjusted_max_speed (0x00527D00, byte-decoded:
bare rate unless RunForward; forward_speed x 4.0 when running;
current_speed_factor proven a ctor-constant 1.0 at 0x00528C34) and swaps
all five interpolation catch-up call sites to it - retail's
fUseAdjustedSpeed_ static (.data 0x0081F418 = 1) makes this the live
branch, so standing/walking remotes now catch up at ~2x runRate instead
of 4x too fast (the #41/#165 presentation family). Autorun now hard-
forces Run for its duration and cancels on every fresh forward press
(CommandInterpreter::HandleNewForwardMovement 0x006b3d60 is literally
SetAutoRun(0,1)); the old test pin codified the divergence. AP-30
retired: retail Frame::is_equal genuinely uses the 0.0002 epsilon - the
row recorded a non-divergence. Three catch-up test pins re-baselined to
retail semantics with citations. Full Release suite 9,983/0.

Wire ConstraintManager.ConstrainTo at every current acdream inbound-position
acceptance seam, matching retail SmartBox::HandleReceivedPosition
(0x00453fd0):
- Remote (player + NPC): LiveEntityNetworkUpdateController arms right after
the hard-teleport branch (remotePlacementRequired) returns - reaching that
point already means MoveOrTeleport did NOT hard-place - anchored to the
object's own live IPhysicsObjHost.Position.
- Local player teleport: PlayerMovementController.SetPositionCore now runs
UnConstrain (retail teleport_hook 0x00514ed0, previously a no-op because
nothing armed the leash) then re-arms anchored to the just-snapped
position, composing with the existing StopCompletelyAtPhysicsObjectBoundary
velocity zero rather than duplicating it. CommitPreparedPosition mirrors
the same pair for the deferred player-mode-entry commit path.
- Local player ForcePosition: PlayerMovementController.BlipPosition arms
with NO preceding UnConstrain (retail BlipPlayer/SetPositionSimple
survives motion/velocity/stick, and the leash is no different).
Push PhysicsBody.IsFullyConstrained from PositionManager.IsFullyConstrained
at the SAME per-tick chokepoint each pump already runs AdjustOffset
(PlayerMovementController.Update, RuntimeRemotePhysicsUpdater.Tick/TickHidden)
so TS-35's read gate in jump_is_allowed sees live state instead of a stub
that is never written.
Tests: local-player arm/teardown/rearm/taper/jump-refusal (Runtime.Tests,
PlayerMovementControllerTests), remote-tick IsFullyConstrained push
(Runtime.Tests, RuntimePhysicsStateTests). Full Core/Runtime/App suites
green with no regressions.
Campaign P Slice P3 item 3. The wire parse (CreateObject's
PublicWeenieDesc._bitfield), the decode (EntityCollisionFlagsExt.
FromPwdBitfield), the per-GUID storage (ClientObjectTable.
PublicWeenieBitfield), and the exemption logic (CollisionExemption.
ShouldSkip) all already existed and were already correct -- every
mover-flags call site just fed a GUID-prefix IsPlayer heuristic instead
of the real per-entity PK/PKLite/Impenetrable state (retail
OBJECTINFO::init 0x0050cf30 state |= 0x80/0x800/0x1000).
Port:
- EntityCollisionFlagsExt.ToMoverState translates the decoded PWD
bit-space into the ObjectInfoState bit-space FindObjCollisions
actually reads -- two different numberings that must not be
confused. Deliberately does not translate IsPlayer (every call site
already derives that correctly from its own GUID heuristic per
#184 Slice 2b).
- EntityCollisionFlagsExt.ResolveMoverPvpState is the one shared
ClientObjectTable-backed lookup (guid -> ObjectInfoState), replacing
what would otherwise have been three separate inline copies across
GameWindow/LivePresentationComposition/RemoteTeleportController.
- Threaded as a new optional moverPvpState parameter through
RuntimeRemotePhysicsUpdater.Tick/TickHidden and
RuntimeOrdinaryPhysicsUpdater.TryBegin (default None preserves every
pre-P3 caller unchanged), and as PlayerMovementController.OwnPvpFlags
for the local player's own two resolve call sites.
- TS-23 section 12b: PlayerWeenie.JumpStaminaCost's pk parameter now
reads the real PlayerKillerStatus(0x86)/LastPkAttackTimestamp(0x91)
pair against retail's 20-second recency window
(pkStatus in {4, 0x40} && (timestamp + 20.0) >= now), replacing the
P1 hardcoded false. RuntimeMovementSkillState/Snapshot and
LiveSessionEventRouter.RecomputePvpStatus push both the PWD bitfield
and the PlayerKillerStatus pair reactively, riding the SAME
ClientObject event triggers RecomputeBurden already uses.
- A conformance test caught a genuine precision bug in the first
PK-timer clock choice: DateTimeOffset.UtcNow's Unix-epoch seconds
(~1.7 billion) loses ~128 seconds of precision in a 32-bit float,
silently swallowing the entire 20-second window. Switched to
Environment.TickCount64 (small, monotonic magnitude) -- also the more
retail-plausible basis, since LastPkAttackTimestamp is itself a wire
PropertyFloat and retail's Timer::cur_time is almost certainly a
process/session-relative counter for the same precision reason, not
an absolute epoch.
Non-PK invariant (the acceptance criterion): an entity with no
ClientObjectTable row, or a row whose PublicWeenieBitfield is null or
0, resolves to ObjectInfoState.None -- a no-op OR into moverFlags,
bit-identical to every pre-P3 caller's hardcoded value. A dedicated
test drives two real ClientObjectTable rows through
CollisionExemption.ShouldSkip and confirms PK-vs-PK collides while
PK-vs-non-PK and non-PK-vs-non-PK both stay exempt (walk through).
Register: TS-23 retired (both the collision-flags and PK-timer halves);
the stale "M2 combat must land TS-23" phase-gate note removed.
dotnet build + dotnet test (Core.Tests 4008/2 skip, Runtime.Tests
425/0, App.Tests 3968/3 skip, complete solution build) all green.

Campaign P Slice P3 item 2. CPhysicsObj::handle_all_collisions
(0x00514780, pc:282647) is one uniform function retail calls
unconditionally after every SetPositionInternal, player or remote. The
gate is shouldReflect = !(prevOnWalkable && nowOnWalkable && !sledding).
RuntimeRemotePhysicsUpdater.Tick's post-resolve reflect was still the
2026-07-05 (#173) hand-inlined block, gated on
resolveResult.CollisionNormalValid and using two ad-hoc branches that
diverge from retail in exactly the cases the register row named:
- non-sledding: old = "!prevOnWalkable && !nowOnWalkable" (reflects
ONLY airborne-before-AND-after); retail reflects on every transition
except grounded-before-AND-after.
- sledding: old = "!(prevOnWalkable && nowOnWalkable)" (suppresses the
bounce exactly when both grounded); retail's "!sledding" term forces
shouldReflect = true unconditionally when sledding, the opposite
polarity.
Both gaps meant a remote's post-landing reflect never ran on a
grounded-transition tick at all -- the "acdream lands clean and dead"
half of #166's slope-landing composite.
Replace the hand-inlined block with a direct call to
PhysicsObjUpdate.HandleAllCollisions -- the same verbatim port the
local player and every ordinary body already use via
CommitSetPositionTransition -- passing the same
prevContact/prevOnWalkable/nowOnWalkable values the old code already
computed. Narrower swap per the research's explicit recommendation:
does not fold in CommitSetPositionTransition's HitGround/LeaveGround
dispatch, leaving the remote's bespoke landing-detection block
(interp-queue-clear, animation-hook-specific logic) untouched. The call
is now unconditional (matching retail's own unconditional call site)
rather than gated behind CollisionNormalValid, since HandleAllCollisions
already no-ops the reflect step internally when no normal was found but
still runs the frames-stationary-fall bleed regardless.
PhysicsObjUpdate.HandleAllCollisionsTests already exhaustively pins the
retail formula in isolation; this change is a mechanical wiring swap to
the already-tested function using values the removed block already
computed. Full regression suites (Core.Tests 3991/2 skip, Runtime.Tests
425/0, App.Tests 3968/3 skip) pass unchanged -- no existing test pinned
the old broken formula.
Register: AD-25 retired (both the local-player and remote halves are now
the ported HandleAllCollisions); #166's reattribution note updated to
reflect the closure, leaving only TS-4 as the remaining blocker on that
issue's downhill-jump-glide acceptance.

Campaign P Slice P3 item 1. Retail CPhysicsObj::transition (0x00512dc0)
seeds the collision sweep from CPartArray::GetSphere (the Setup's own
<=2-sphere list, each origin+radius scaled by m_scale) via
SPHEREPATH::init_sphere (0x0050c670) -- not from a symmetric two-scalar
(radius, height) capsule reconstruction. The human Setup 0x02000001's
authored spheres are (0,0,0.475) r=.48 and (0,0,1.350) r=.48; the old
reconstruction from (0.48, 1.835) produced (0,0,0.48) + (0,0,1.355), a
5 mm head-center offset the TS-46 register row documented as a residual.
Port:
- SpherePath.InitPath gains a sphere-list overload (ImmutableArray<
FlatCollisionSphere>, scale) sharing a new InitPathCore with the
existing (radius, height) overload, which is now the degenerate
2-scalar case of the same code -- byte-for-byte unchanged, so every
captured-fixture replay (CellarUpTrajectoryReplayTests,
DoorBugTrajectoryReplayTests, CellarLipWedgeTests) keeps passing
unmodified.
- PhysicsEngine.ResolveWithTransition gains optional sphereList/
sphereScale parameters; empty/default preserves the legacy scalar
path for every pre-existing caller.
- LiveEntityMotionRuntimeController.GetSetupMoverShape is a new sibling
of GetSetupCylinder (left untouched) that resolves the Setup's own
sphere list plus Setup-derived step-up/step-down
(CPartArray::GetStepUpHeight/GetStepDownHeight, 0x005180d0/0x005180f0,
x ObjScale, 0.4 m fallback matching the pre-existing literal).
- Threaded through PlayerMovementController (both resolve call sites,
new SphereList property set by PlayerModeController.ApplyStepHeights
and the Headless world projection), RuntimeRemotePhysicsUpdater
(Tick + TickHidden), and RuntimeOrdinaryPhysicsUpdater.TryBegin.
Remote/ordinary step heights are now Setup-derived instead of a
hardcoded 0.4f literal. Projectile and camera-probe sweeps are
untouched (already single-sphere-exact).
- PlayerModeController.ApplyStepHeights also now applies the x ObjScale
multiply to the player's own step heights (previously only the
remote/ordinary paths did), closing an adjacent gap the P3 research
flagged.
Ts46SphereListConformanceTests proves the sphere-list overload sees the
exact dat spheres (not the reconstruction), that the scalar overload is
unchanged, and that ResolveWithTransition's sphereList parameter
actually drives the sweep (a decoy-scalar control pair using a
head-height obstacle sphere).
Register: TS-46 retired (both residuals it named are closed); header
count corrected to 40 active TS rows.
dotnet build + dotnet test (Core.Tests 3991/2 skip, Runtime.Tests
425/0, App.Tests 3968/3 skip, complete solution build) all green.

Move the sole PhysicsEngine, production cache, collision admissions, canonical bodies and hosts, remote components, ordinary/remote worksets, simulation, cell commits, and shadow synchronization under RuntimeEntityObjectLifetime. Keep App as the prepared-asset, animation-input, and render-projection adapter while preserving the named-retail update and collision order.
Add exact-incarnation, object-clock, callback-reentrancy, GUID-reuse, two-runtime isolation, source ownership, collision publication, and graphical projection coverage. Release build and the complete 8,588-test solution pass.
