The two gates that decide whether an accepted remote Position is interpolated
or hard-snapped read `Airborne`, which is `!Body.OnWalkable` — WALKABILITY.
Retail reads CONTACT: InterpolationManager::adjust_offset @0x00555D30 gates its
entire body on `transient_state & 1` @0x00555D52, so a retail body in contact
with a non-walkable face still interpolates.
The two predicates disagree in exactly one state — in contact, not on walkable
ground — which 204d0ae0 turned from unreachable into ordinary. Before it, the
per-tick forge made every non-airborne remote walkable by construction, so the
disagreement could not occur.
Both gates now read `!Body.InContact`: ApplyRemoteContactRouting's flight
carve-out and OnPosition's player-remote arm.
`Airborne` is deliberately NOT re-derived from CONTACT. That would perturb all
five of its writers and contradict a pinned assertion in
RemoteTeleportPlacementTests.Apply_PendingGroundToSteepContact_ (InContact:
true, OnWalkable: false -> Assert.True(remote.Airborne)); a previous
implementer attempted it and correctly backed out rather than editing the
assertion. This narrower shape touches no existing test.
AP-140's register row is retired in this commit, as the row itself specified.
Honest scope: this is a faithfulness fix, not a visible one. ACE derives its
IsGrounded flag with the same floor_z test, so during a slide it almost
certainly reports not-grounded, the classifier returns NoPositionOperation, and
neither arm is taken. Expect no observable change against ACE.
Suite 11,027 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (baseline 11,023).

Flips the SetPositionSimple classification (contact, PlayerDistance >= 96 m) for
remotes onto 4b-1's drive controller and deletes both legacy far blocks, both
duplicated 96f/4f constant pairs, and both `?? Vector3.Zero` fabrications. The
4 m constant now exists exactly once. Teleport and cell-less stay legacy for
4b-3.
Retail: MoveOrTeleport @0x00516330's far branch runs StopInterpolating
@0x005163CB before SetPositionSimple @0x005163D9 and returns 1 @0x005163E8
regardless — the SetPositionError is discarded — so HandleReceivedPosition arms
ConstrainTo @0x00454272 post-move on commit AND on failure. The x87 parity
decode at @0x00516393-@0x0051639E puts exactly 96.0 on the far branch.
SetPositionSimple @0x005162B0 builds flags 0x1012 at @0x005162C4.
Non-commit outcomes still advance the body, because retail's SetPositionInternal
@0x00515BD0 commits the destination via store_position @0x00515CE2 when no cell
resolves. The partition is by STAGE, not heuristic, enforced by an exhaustive
switch: Refused/Contention/NotApplicable/RejectedPreparation store (the placement
never executed); Committed/Deferred/RejectedByPlacement do not (the engine ran
and refused, matching retail's non-storing returns @0x00515CB2 and @0x00515CD5).
Without this a refused far snap froze the remote with an emptied queue.
Also fixes a shipped defect this route made live: ParkDeferred's quiescence parks
withdrew the entity (InWorld=false, clock suspended, residency removed) and were
never restorable, while Forget(restoreCancelledPark: true) runs for every
accepted Position on every entity. The restorable decision now lives inside
ParkDeferred AFTER SnapToCell, reading body.CellPosition.ObjCellId — the value
RestoreParkWithdrawal actually restores at — against every live quiescence
rather than one minimum-OperationId token. The three pre-snap fields are hoisted
into locals because SnapToCell ends with InWorld = true. ParkCollisionResidents
passes restorableOnCancel: false explicitly; the plain unplaceable park is
provably unchanged. RestoreParkWithdrawal re-tests the prefix at restore time so
a retained route-2 park cannot re-admit into a prefix that began quiescing
during the park.
CanAttemptDestination is retained as an OPTIMISATION only, with the two Core
predicates it cannot reproduce written down at the pre-flight, plus the two
properties that depend on it staying there.
Four fix rounds and eight Opus reviews. The slice was fully green at 10,990,
10,997 and 11,004 while containing real defects — a frozen remote pinned as
correct by its own test, a fallback that over-wrote on the exact retail paths
that decline to store, and a park guard incomplete on two independent axes.
Register: AP-137 (leftover classifications take AP-87's catch-up; states the
cell-less enqueue-vs-place delta deferred to 4b-3, that RejectedData is applied
anyway, and the headless divergence), AP-138 (the refusable far placement),
AP-136 narrowed to match the relocation. #309's acceptance steps rewritten —
step 5 previously asserted a recovery the code does not perform — and gated on a
new ACDREAM_PROBE_PARK=1 signal so the check cannot pass while broken.
Suite 11,009 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed against a measured 10,968 baseline.
The 10,973 figure recorded earlier was wrong and is corrected here.
Connected gate outstanding: the two-client far-snap walk and #309.

Routes the classifier's two NO-PLACEMENT remote branches — Interpolate
(contact, PlayerDistance < 96 m) and NoPositionOperation (no contact) — through
a Runtime-owned seam, and fixes the two divergences they carried. Teleport,
far-snap and cell-less stay on the legacy App path; 4b owns them.
Route 4 was split into 4a/4b after scoping put the whole route at 1,500-2,500
lines against a ~400 budget. 4a's branches perform no SetPosition, so this slice
carries no deferred-cell park, no service-window guard and no allocation
exposure — which is what made the split worth doing.
Divergences fixed, both previously unfiled:
* D1 — the NPC airborne branch hard-snapped Body.Position/Orientation and
branched on the client-tracked rmState.Airborne, never consulting the wire
IsGrounded bit. Retail's MoveOrTeleport @0x00516330 returns 0 at 0x0051636D
and writes nothing. Player remotes were already correct; NPCs were not.
* D2 — ConstrainTo was armed before the operation, unconditionally, so it fired
on the airborne no-op retail skips and anchored to the PRE-move position.
Retail arms it at 0x00454272, only when MoveOrTeleport returns nonzero,
anchored to &arg2->m_position read live, i.e. post-move.
AP-87 and TS-44 were carried deliberately, not delegated away. AP-87's three
conditions — including firstUp, which one round silently dropped — are preserved
as an explicit acdream policy layer applied AFTER the classifier commits to
Interpolate; the two previously separate player/NPC copies are now one. TS-44
stays an NPC-only caller gate; extending sticky suppression to player remotes has
no retail basis and no live evidence, so it was declined rather than absorbed.
Landing is explicitly carved out of 4a's ownership on both arms. A landing packet
classifies Interpolate, so an ordering slip would ENQUEUE a body that must PLANT
and a creature knocked off a ledge would glide down over a packet interval. The
carve-out is a named entry point returning AirborneSnap/SteadyStateInterpolate/
Legacy precisely so the PRECEDENCE is observable and testable rather than implied
by statement order — that is how the slip happened once and was caught.
The player/NPC asymmetry on landing is real and NOT resolved here: retail draws
no such distinction, but converging them is a behaviour decision needing its own
evidence. Filed into the 4b plan.
Register: AP-135 filed for the two bookkeeping writes the airborne branch
deliberately retains (rmState.CellId, LastServerPos/Time) — not retail's model,
but load-bearing for our catch-up sweep and staleness timer, and verified not to
be a canonical cell commit for ordinary remotes. AP-87 and TS-44 rewritten to
describe the code.
Honest remainder: App still owns branch selection, the airborne return, the cell
write, the entity write and the shadow publish, and headless satisfies "both
hosts drive the identical entry point" only vacuously since it returns early for
remotes. That is written into the 4b bullet rather than left implicit.
Cost: 364 non-comment production lines, 91% of the ~400 budget — the split did
isolate the cheap half, but not by much. Do not carry "well under" into 4b's
scoping.
Gates: complete Release solution 10,938 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (pre-4a
baseline 10,909). Four review rounds; the first three each introduced a new
behavioural defect while fixing another, and each left a comment asserting
behaviour that no longer matched — the final round's precedence matrix was
traced cell-by-cell against HEAD with only the D1-intended difference. App tests
call production entry points against a real WorldEntity and real classifier
output, closing route 2's #292 gap rather than repeating it.
Connected acceptance NOT run — needs a live second character.
