Builds the machinery route 4b-2 and 4b-3 will flip on, and changes no remote
behaviour: it has no production caller, so RemotePlacementDrivePendingCount is
provably 0 and IsConverged is unchanged.
Five pieces: a per-entity remote placement owner (RuntimeRemotePlacementDriveController),
a Position-time service-window guard with a Runtime interface plus BOTH host
implementations, N3's headless RetryPending pump, parked-count observability in
the ownership ledger, and the service-window optimisation that avoids parks we
can cheaply predict.
Landed alone because it is where the park-withdraws-the-entity failure was
decided; that decision is fixed at the source in the preceding commit and must
not share a review signal with a behaviour flip.
Two parts of route 2's controller are deliberately NOT ported, both verified
against retail rather than assumed. There is no ack: SendPositionEvent is called
only inside HandleReceivedPosition's local-player FORCE_POSITION gate
@0x0045400C-@0x00454091, and the remote arm @0x0045414D has no equivalent. There
is no re-issue funnel: retail never re-attempts a position it could not apply —
stale timestamps merely bump error_count @0x004542AC — and re-issuing packet N
after N+1 has merged would apply a pose the newer packet already superseded,
which is correct for a one-shot ForcePosition and wrong for a 5-10 Hz stream.
The service-window guard is an OPTIMISATION, not the correctness mechanism. The
original contract had it the other way round, justified by a claim that retail
cannot represent "arrived but not placeable" — false, and corrected in the
review findings: retail's GotoLostCell/reenter_visibility path represents it
exactly. A pre-flight guard also cannot be complete, because Core defers on the
entity's CURRENT cell, on the swept QueriedCellIds footprint spanning
neighbouring landblocks, and on residency evaluated after AdjustToOutside —
conditions only Core can see.
Review found and this commit fixes: DetachRoute cleared two maps of LIVE Core
operations without cancelling them (route 2's AbandonPending is the correct
mirror, not the first-entry controller) and its test asserted that blindness as
convergence; the headless predicate answered "can ever publish" rather than "is
published", and after the first fix still matched only 1 of the 9 landblocks
this host publishes; OwnsPlacement admitted remote top-level Creates until
gated on the Teleport flag as well as the disposition; Advance re-submitted
without re-checking the window; and four comments cited a report that did not
exist.
Contract item 6 is met by the structural proof, not the earlier test:
HasOldPrefixPlacementDebt refuses collision-prefix mutation permission before
ParkCollisionResidents is ever entered, so its overlap throw is unreachable.
That same mechanism is the unbounded stall filed as #310, which 4b-1 does not
bound — it only avoids widening it.
#311 files the remaining per-tick allocation in RetryPendingProjections; the
early-out for the empty-FIFO case landed via a new HasPendingReceipts accessor
so hosts still never touch .Placements. directly.
Gates: complete Release solution 10,973 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (baseline
10,938). Four review rounds; every fix discrimination-verified by revert.

A local-player ForcePosition had TWO independent writers for one accepted
packet: LocalForcePositionTransaction snapped the physics body
(PlayerMovementController.BlipPosition, a raw SnapToCell with no collision
resolve), while LiveEntityNetworkUpdateController's generic tail separately
wrote position/cell/rotation to the render WorldEntity from the raw wire and
rebucketed it. Two stores, one packet — the divergence class 670f307c fixed on
the remote path. The outbound AutonomousPosition ack also fired BEFORE any
canonical commit existed: we told ACE "got it, I'm here" before deciding where
"here" was, and the trailing isCurrent() could only suppress the continuation,
never recall the packet.
RuntimeAcceptedPositionDriveController is now the one Runtime-owned seam. Both
hosts call the identical TryExecuteAcceptedLocalPosition; App and headless
project the committed result through the existing placement projection sink
(LiveEntityRuntime.TryApplyRuntimePlacementPlace already performed the same
four writes, from committed state rather than a wire guess).
Retail: SmartBox::HandleReceivedPosition @0x00453FD0's FORCE_POSITION branch is
get_heading -> Frame::set_heading -> SmartBox::BlipPlayer @0x00453940 -> stamp
POSITION_TS -> SendPositionEvent @0x00454091 -> return @0x0045409D. BlipPlayer
is CPhysicsObj::SetPositionSimple @0x005162B0 with flags 0x1012
(Teleport|Slide|SendPositionEvent) — a real collision-resolving SetPosition,
not a snap. The pinned classifier already encoded this exactly.
Named behaviour changes:
* The ack is now an OUTPUT of the committed route, fired strictly after the
canonical commit and exactly once per accepted force packet.
* The ForcePosition route no longer re-arms the constraint leash. The force
branch returns at 0x0045409D, ahead of all three ConstrainTo sites
(0x00454272, 0x0045418A, 0x004541EC); the old re-arm cited retail's "Player,
normal" branch, which BlipPlayer is not on. The teleport, CommitPreparedPosition
and first-entry callers legitimately still constrain and are untouched.
* A force correction that terminates WITHOUT committing still sends its
position event and is not retried — retail's BlipPlayer discards
SetPositionSimple's SetPositionError return and acks unconditionally.
A single _pending funnel owns the in-flight placement, deciding on the token's
PositionAuthorityVersion against the record's: equal -> clear; advanced with the
newest accepted event still a force -> re-issue, re-classified; advanced to an
ordinary Apply -> clear, since newer server truth owns that pose. This closes a
double-apply/double-ack and a silently-dropped correction that two earlier
iterations of this slice each introduced.
AD-62 records the residual: a ForcePosition our async collision publication
cannot carry to a committed placement is not re-applied. Retail has no park —
its world is fully resident and its placement synchronous — so the state is
unreachable there. AP-131 is NOT retired; its legacy Position caller is route 4.
Deleted: LocalForcePositionTransaction, PlayerMovementController.BlipPosition,
HeadlessSessionWorldProjection.BlipLocalPlayer.
Gates: complete Release solution 10,858 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (baseline
10,844/4/0). Two independent Opus reviews (retail-conformance and
architecture/adversarial) PASS on the final diff after three FAIL rounds; every
intermediate state was fully green, so the suite caught none of the four real
defects. Connected acceptance is NOT run: nothing a user can do makes ACE emit
a ForcePosition without retail's @pklite, which acdream does not implement — see
docs/research/2026-08-03-c4-route-2-visual-gate.md.
Known gap, recorded not claimed: the plan's acceptance item 2 is unmet. The App
double-write check is a source pin, and "the committed projection moves the
render entity" is uncovered at any layer (#292). Filed alongside: #286-#291,
#293-#296.

670f307c made remote first-entry placement resolve its landblock-local
CreateObject origin through Runtime's world frame
(RuntimeSetPositionState.PrepareMover:1526-1544) and return
RetrySetupUnavailable until that frame exists. Only the accepted local-player
Create publishes it (RuntimeEntityObjectLifetime.RegisterEntityCore:558-570 ->
RuntimePhysicsState.ObserveLocalWorldFrame).
Fixtures that drive remote conductors in a world with no local player - a
state production never occupies, since the player's own Create always precedes
broadcast Creates - therefore parked forever on RetrySetupUnavailable. Their
initial-create residences never retired, which cascaded into rejected
appearance updates, missing canonical bodies, unconverged ownership ledgers,
and a GameRuntime teardown that could not complete stage 10.
The measured blast radius was far larger than the handoff recorded. It claimed
"six selected fixture failures"; a baseline run found 43. The App suite was
fully green at 01f4791e and 670f307c broke 28 tests at once; the Runtime suite
lost 13, twelve of them in RuntimeRemoteFirstEntryStateTests - the exact
conductor that commit gated. Both commits were verified on focused runs only.
The production gate is correct, so nothing here weakens it. It matches App's
own coordinate owner: LiveWorldOriginState is initialized once from the local
player's spawn (LiveEntityHydrationPorts.cs:226) and rebased only by
StreamingOriginRecenterCoordinator.Advance at a teleport boundary - exactly
ObserveLocalWorldFrame's semantics. Every fixture is repaired by supplying the
missing precondition beside the resident landblock it already models, and not
one expected value or assertion was changed.
The mechanism shipped with zero tests. RuntimeWorldFrameTests now pins its
contract: the local player publishes the frame, remotes never do, neighbouring
landblocks convert at 192 m per step, ordinary movement across a landblock
boundary must NOT rebase it, an accepted teleport must, and a zero cell id
neither publishes nor resolves. That "no rebase on ordinary movement" rule is
load-bearing - if it and LiveWorldOriginState ever disagree, remote objects
are placed a multiple of 192 m from where the world is streamed.
Runtime 1,009/1,009; App 4,048 passed / 3 skipped.

ACE intentionally creates the local player Hidden and releases that materialization state on LoginComplete. Sending LoginComplete from raw F746 receipt raced canonical placement and left the login haze visible. Route one one-shot completion callback from Runtime's local first-entry terminal edge to graphical and prepared headless hosts; retain a guarded accepted-Create edge only for content-less headless sessions. Focused Runtime login tests, all 79 Headless tests, the connected user gate, and the Release build pass.
Campaign P remaining-physics-divergence, placement cutover slice C3c
(docs/plans/2026-08-02-placement-cutover.md). Both production hosts now
register every initial Create through the residence + continuation-
executor + first-entry-conductor machinery (C0-C3b):
- Graphical (route 1): RegisterEntityWithInitialResidence at Create; the
shared RuntimeFirstEntryDriveController pumps both conductors from the
placement-receipt flow; MaterializeProjection and RebucketLiveEntity
are presentation-only while a residence is ACTIVE (ExecutorCompleted is
the presentation-binding receipt); post-residence entities take the
full legacy path including the prepare_to_enter_world clock edges.
PlayerModeController attaches presentation to the Runtime-published
controller; its legacy resolve/step-heights/host-construction path is
deleted; presentation-only rollback (retail has no entry-flow rollback).
- Headless (route 8): OnSpawned registers with residence when a drive
exists; content-less sessions keep the pre-flip direct registration;
SynchronizeLocalPlayer/CreateController/ApplySetupStepHeights deleted;
prepared-collision read failure is a typed AwaitingCollisionSource
retry; far remotes outside the service window complete celless.
- RuntimeLocalPlayerMovementState.Controller setter sealed internal; all
controller mutation flows through the publication lifecycle.
Fix slices landed within this cutover, each dual-gated:
- F1: live movement-stat/server-physics application routed through the
Runtime ownership seam (post-logout ingest crash on the retired
controller eliminated; RuntimeMovementSkillProjection deleted).
- F2: login activation wedge - collision-admission prefix gate factored
out of the seal (reentrant-commit RejectedAuthority), rearm generation
identity corrected, PlayerModeAutoEntry requires the Runtime-published
controller (world reveal can no longer seal unmaterialized).
- F3: landblock-prefix 0-sentinel replaced by explicit absent-id guards;
map-corner landblocks (grid row/col 0) fully legal through admission,
park/rearm/retire, quiescence, and outdoor shadow seeds.
- F5: local-player first-entry ground contact seeded by the shared
SpawnPlacementSettler (moved App->Core) at FinalizeActivation - the
retail first-gravity-frame touch (enter_world 0x00516170 carries no
seed); the legacy unconditional force-seed is overwritten by a real
floor-found contact; airborne spawns stay airborne; outbound contact
bit verified end-to-end. Fixes the standing-cast 'You can't do that
while in the air!' rejections.
- R1 (dual-review round): login constraint leash armed at the committed
placement (HandleReceivedPosition 0x00453FD0 analog); register rows
AD-61 (settle-timing compression now covering the local player) and
AD-42 (repointed off the deleted resolve split) in this commit;
residence-conversion owner API; wire-landblock guards; drive-pending
ledger in IsConverged; route attach/detach latch; executor-drain drift
model documented + source-pinned.
Gates: Runtime 1,003, App 4,039/3 skips, Headless 79, complete solution
10,816/0 failed/4 skips (Release, -m:1); connected lifecycle/reconnect
gate PASS (logs/connected-world-gate-20260802-175401; graceful exits,
world-visible, zero airborne rejections). The nine-stop soak remains red
for the pre-existing 6b28ff99 whole-world collision-clone throughput
regression (attributed with evidence; scheduled as its own slice before
C5). Dual Opus reviews (retail-conformance + adversarial): delta PASS.

Ports the retail CACQualities/EncumbranceSystem/MovementSystem chain
(named-retail decomp pc 256393/412901-414050/416169-416320/695958+) so
PlayerWeenie's run rate, jump height, jump permission, and jump stamina
cost are real functions of burden, current stamina, and vitae/skill
enchantments instead of stubs.
Core:
- New EncumbranceSystem.cs (delegates to the already-verified
BurdenMath formulas — one source of truth for the burden HUD and
movement physics) and MovementSystem.cs (GetRunRate/GetJumpHeight/
JumpStaminaCost/GetJumpPower, decomp-cited; ACE cross-referenced
where BN dropped the general-case arithmetic entirely).
- PlayerWeenie rewritten as the CACQualities-shaped composition:
CanJump gates on burden (<2.0 load, UN-8 — x87 polarity resolved by
plausibility, Ghidra MCP unavailable this slice), JumpStaminaCost
returns the real ceil((load+0.5)*power*8+2) cost and always affords
it (matches decomp — retail's own function never refuses; "weak"
jump comes entirely from the stamina==0 skill-zeroing gate inside
InqRunRate/InqJumpVelocity, not a hard refusal), SetStamina wires a
null="unknown, don't gate" sentinel preserving every pre-P1 test.
- EnchantmentMath.GetMod gained an optional StatModType flag filter
(GetSkillMod convenience wrapper) so the SAME vitae/family-stacking
machinery already used for vital-max buffs now also answers "what's
the vitae+skill-enchantment-adjusted Run/Jump skill" — reusing the
M3 active-enchantment state, not a new engine.
Runtime:
- RuntimeCharacterState now stores the pre-EnchantSkill base run/jump
skill and recomputes the adjusted value (vitae first, then matching
Skill-flagged buffs, floor 0.5, truncate) on every base push AND on
every Spellbook.EnchantmentsChanged notification — a vitae change
alone moves the produced rate without a fresh PlayerDescription.
- RuntimeMovementSkillState extended with Burden/CurrentStamina
(RuntimeMovementSkillProjection.ApplyTo pushes both through the
existing seam); LiveSessionEventRouter recomputes burden from the
same Strength+aug-property+EncumbranceVal inputs the burden HUD
already assembles (reacting to the same ClientObjectTable events)
and pushes current stamina from LocalPlayerState vital updates.
- Wires the previously dead-lettered ReportExhaustion() R3-W4 seam:
LiveSessionRuntimeFactory's OnMovementStatsUpdated callback re-
applies the current snapshot to the live controller and forces an
immediate movement re-evaluation on any skill/burden/stamina change.
Register: retires TS-5 (CanJump/JumpStaminaCost stubs) and AP-25 (no
vitae in pushed skill). Adds AP-127 (two minor unmodeled retail bonus
properties + the stamina-buff-adjusts-local-copy nuance, deliberately
out of the bounded "run/jump query path only" scope) and UN-8 (the
CanJump x87 polarity call, flagged for a future Ghidra MCP
confirmation pass). Extends TS-23 (PlayerKillerStatus not parsed) to
cover JumpStaminaCost's new pk parameter, hardcoded false pending P3.
Full pseudocode + retail citations + the vitae/skill-level finding in
docs/research/2026-07-30-stat-coupled-movement-pseudocode.md.
Release suite: Core.Tests 3977/2 skips, Runtime.Tests 425/0 skips,
App.Tests 3968/3 skips — all green. (One pre-existing, unrelated Debug-
only flake in LandblockBuildOriginTests reproduces on the pre-P1
baseline and passes in Release; not touched here.)
