Shipped-code defect affecting committed route-2 code, found while reviewing
route 4b-1.
RuntimeSetPositionState.ParkDeferred withdraws an entity from the world:
body.InWorld = false, TransientStateFlags.Active cleared, WithdrawCanonical,
SuspendObjectClock. CancelCoreDeferred then removed the operation and rewrote
the pending Withdraw into a Discard while restoring NONE of it. So cancelling a
wakeable park was strictly worse than keeping one — the park is wakeable, the
cancel destroys the only object that could ever wake it, and the entity is left
invisible AND intangible with nothing to bring it back.
Route 2's re-issue funnel masked this: re-issuing is correct for a one-shot
ForcePosition ACE never repeats, and wrong for a repeated remote stream, so the
hole was hidden rather than fixed.
Retail's own answer is a working park, verified in the decomp rather than
assumed: CPhysicsObj::SetPositionInternal @0x00515BD0, when AdjustPosition
yields no cell @0x00515C1D, calls prepare_to_leave_visibility @0x00515CDA,
store_position @0x00515CE2 (the DESTINATION pose is committed), GotoLostCell
@0x00515CF2 registering at m_position.objcell_id read AFTER store_position (so
the destination cell), clears transient 0x80 @0x00515CF7, and returns OK
@0x00515D07. InitObjCell @0x00508260 drains the lost list on cell load and calls
reenter_visibility @0x00516250, which re-places from the object's OWN
m_position with flags 0x11.
Two corrections to the direction I gave, both forced by evidence and both right:
The pose must NOT be rolled back — only the withdrawal. Three shipped route-2
tests capture positionAtPark AFTER the park and assert it survives the cancel,
and retail agrees: store_position commits the destination and nothing
un-commits it. Restoring residency at the body's committed cell is therefore
retail's own cell choice, not merely self-consistent.
The gate defaults to FALSE with four explicit opt-ins, rather than defaulting
true with opt-outs at the withdrawal callers. That keeps every one of the ~20
shipped Forget/ForgetExactPlacement sites at exactly its current behaviour
instead of depending on having correctly enumerated the withdrawal transactions.
Review had already found the broad version corrupting five of them
(TryApplyPickup, CommitAcceptedParent, CommitAcceptedParentCellless,
CommitWithdrawal, CommitPositionChannelUpdate): they hand-roll a partial
re-withdrawal that undoes the clock and FullCellId but not InWorld or the
_spatialRoots re-registration, leaving a picked-up item both in inventory and an
InWorld cellless spatial root in the physics workset.
ParkDeferred's restorableOnCancel is opt-in for exactly one of its four callers
— the plain unplaceable-destination park. Every quiescence and retirement park
is excluded deliberately: those entities are withdrawn because their world is
going away, and restoring residency inside a quiescing prefix blocks its
retirement.
VerifyPositionChannelCancellation now asserts InWorld and IsSpatialRoot per
channel — Position is a cancellation and must restore; Pickup and Parent are
withdrawals and must not. It previously asserted only !IsDeferred and counts,
which is why five green states hid this.
Register row AP-136 measured against GotoLostCell/reenter_visibility rather than
labelled "retail-shaped". Files #309 (the restore-on-cancel residual, with
park-survives recorded as the retail-faithful target and its two blockers named:
the NewerPositionPickupAndParentEachCancelExactLostOperation invariant and
teardown convergence) and #310 (an unbounded retirement stall — a retained
preparation retry pins its prefix through HasOldPrefixPlacementDebt forever, and
TickLostCellDeadlines has no production caller so the 25 s timer never fires).
This is a user-observable change to shipped paths: restorableOnCancel: true sits
in SubmitPreparedPlacementCore, the shared core behind every production
placement. AP-136 and #309 carry the proposed two-client check.
Gates: complete Release solution 10,973 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (baseline
10,938). Every new test discrimination-verified by reverting the fix.

Move projectile component identity, prediction invalidation, spatial worksets, authoritative corrections, and the retail physics step into AcDream.Runtime. Keep App as the DAT-shape and presentation adapter so ACE outcomes and visible behavior remain unchanged.
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.

Retain exact teardown receipts before terminal callbacks, preserve ordered re-entrant entity/object publication, publish committed facts across projection failures, and make direct disposal converge every canonical owner. Add a complete ownership ledger plus adversarial direct/graphical parity, callback, GUID reuse, reset, and resource-churn gates.

Introduce the presentation-free RuntimeEntityDirectory and RuntimeEntityRecord as the sole owners of server GUIDs, INSTANCE_TS incarnations, accepted snapshots, authority versions, retryable tombstones, session epochs, and local-ID allocation. Convert LiveEntityRuntime into an App projection sidecar host resolved through canonical record identity without a second GUID map.
Preserve the existing synchronous and reentrant projection lifecycle, including retryable registration/delete/session teardown. Add Runtime-only identity/lifetime tests and App ownership guards.
Validated by the Release solution build and 8,441 complete Release tests with five existing skips.
