Campaign OVERHAUL S3 chunk 1 (docs/research/2026-09-01-overhaul/s3-walk-ownership-map.md
§11): the transcript-kinds/fixtures/print-only-emitter half of the walk work,
built AFTER chunk 3 landed LC/SC (the per-land-cell interleave).
B1 — the emitter (print-only, never gates admission/depth/order):
- ACDREAM_DUMP_WALK_TRANSCRIPT=1 is read once into RuntimeOptions.DumpWalkTranscript
(rule 4) and handed to RenderingDiagnostics.DumpWalkTranscriptEnabled (rule 5,
a settable static, not a second env read) once at GameWindow construction — the
deep walk call sites have no reachable RuntimeOptions reference.
- WalkTranscriptDump (new) prints the OH line kinds — F/P/LS/LC/SC/BLD/DI/DC/EC/OC —
to Console at the exact points retail's cdb breakpoints sit
(tools/walk-oracle/oh/oh-capture-walk.cdb.template), gated internally so every
method bails out before any string work when the flag is off.
- Every call site lives in WalkFrameDriver.cs, at the point the driver already
processes that turn: Collect (F/P, after BeginFrame), Emit's DI/LS/DC/BLD cases,
OnLandCellTurn/OnLandscapeCellTurn (LC/SC, at LOD resolution via the new
WalkTranscriptDump.LodCellId helper, before the 8x8-bucket expansion), and the
EmitFloodTurns/EmitCellContentsTurn loops (EC/OC — both UNCONDITIONAL per flood
visit, matching the OH captures' always-equal EC/OC counts; retail's own
DrawEnvCell stamp dedupe sits past the breakpoint, inside the function).
- DC's "pv=" field encodes interior(0)/outdoor(1) as an 8-hex-digit 0/1 so it
satisfies the same pv=[0-9a-f]{8} regex real captures use; derived from
_currentDcStage at the DC event (CellStatic = interior pview, else outdoor).
- The frame-root pose (origin, quaternion) is a reasonable orthonormal basis built
from the walk's own CyPlane.Normal forward vector and WalkLandscape's own
ViewerWorldOriginX/Y block origin — self-consistent for the round-trip parser,
not a byte-exact reproduction of retail's Frame (B4's diff never compares P).
B2 — WalkOracleTrace learns EC/OC event kinds (LC/SC already existed from chunk 3).
New WalkOraclePartsTrace.cs holds two small read-only parsers for the parts log
(PD/DM) and the alpha-depth log (AM/FL/PM/PC) — records only, no validator, no
canonical JSONL, no new tool.
B3 — fixtures: the five OH walk captures join WalkOracleTraceTests.AllFixtures
(now (root, name) pairs — FW0's own root plus the OH capture directory) for
parse + complete-frame pins. The four kit poses join WalkTraceConformanceTests'
still-fixture coverage as NEW rows (the OH cathedral-arrival root is f4180108,
not FW0's f4180106): terrace-edge/cathedral-arrival extend the existing theory
(now (root, fixture) parameterized); holtburg-doorway-still and foundry-deep get
dedicated tests mirroring their FW0 siblings' own structure. Finding: the OH
foundry-deep capture's own retail transcript draws 12 real town buildings through
its exit chain (unlike the FW0 capture, which apparently reached none at that
pose) — the FW0 test's stub 1x1 landscape undershoots it (first divergence:
nothing after "LS" vs retail's real BLD content); fixed by building the full
landscape/building world via WalkLandscapeDatBuilder.Build, matching the shared
theory's own approach, not by skipping or weakening the row.
WalkTraceReplayContext.Signature(WalkOracleFrame) now filters to the DI/DC/BLD/LS
kinds (LC/SC/EC/OC never had a WalkEvent analogue in RetailFrameWalk's own
four-kind vocabulary) instead of mapping them to a "?" placeholder, so the still-
fixture comparison stays apples-to-apples on both sides.
B4 — WalkTranscriptSignatureDiff (test-side only, no runner/tool): diffs two
transcripts (raw lines or parsed frames) at the full DI/DC/BLD/LS/LC/SC/EC/OC
level, reporting the first divergent event and position per frame. Proven over a
synthetic self-vs-self-minus-one-event pair (SignatureDiff_ReportsTheExactRemovedEvent).
Tests: T1 (flag off) is split into a unit-level zero-allocation/zero-output check
on WalkTranscriptDump itself (the walk's pre-existing allocation, e.g.
RetailFrameWalk.EmitDrawCells's per-call array, is untouched by this chunk and not
independently zero-alloc) and an integration-level Collect() check; both assert via
WalkOracleTrace.Parse returning zero frames rather than raw string equality, which
is robust to unrelated Console.WriteLine noise from other test classes running in
parallel (a real, observed hazard — WalkFrameDriverTests joins
CameraDiagnosticsCollection for the same reason CornerFloodReplayTests/
Issue181WallPressEquilibriumTests already do, issue #251). T2 proves the
emitter/parser round trip on a synthetic interior frame. T3's InstalledDat rows all
pass. T4: LaunchOptionsDocumentationTests green with the ACDREAM_DUMP_WALK_TRANSCRIPT
row (both directions).
Gates: hermetic lane 6,814/0 (was 6,795 baseline + new tests), three consecutive
clean runs; InstalledDat lane 245/3 known-failures (the two pre-existing #383
layout tests + TowerAscent) unchanged from baseline.
