Replaces PlayerMovementController's ad-hoc airborne-only reflect + Velocity.Z landing
snap with the verbatim retail chain: cached_velocity = (resolved-old)/dt (separate
reporting value), SetPositionInternal contact determination (kept Velocity.Z<=0 gate for
acdream's always-step-down resolver), then handle_all_collisions (fsf<=1 reflect / fsf>1
zero — the airborne-stuck bleed). Contact is committed BEFORE the reflect so the landing
gate isn't defeated by a reflected +Z; that ordering + the ungated small-velocity-zero
(Slice 1a) retire AD-25's micro-bounce spiral.
Load-bearing: handle_all_collisions + cached_velocity are gated on candidateMoved (retail
UpdateObjectInternal pc:283657 only reaches SetPositionInternal when the integrated
candidate moved off m_position). After fsf>1 zeros a blocked jump, the next frame
integrates zero motion (velMag2==0), so the candidate hasn't moved — skipping the response
that frame lets gravity rebuild the velocity instead of re-zeroing it and re-wedging.
End-to-end Core test (Issue182CrowdJumpTests): a jump blocked by an overhead creature
bleeds its +12 up-velocity to ~0 within a couple frames (fsf>1) and the body grounds on
the manufactured plane instead of hanging with persistent +12. Core 2617 / App 741 green.

The 'run into the last corridor window and pop up through its roof'
report: the live callers passed sphereHeight: 1.2f into
SpherePath.InitPath, whose head-sphere formula (height - radius) put the
head sphere center at 0.72 - the capsule top at 1.2m. The top 0.63m of a
1.83m character had NO collision, so at the corridor-end window alcove
(0x8A020179 -> 0x8A02017E: 0.70m sill face, 1.3m opening, sloped funnel
behind) the step-up's placement never saw the head overlapping the
lintel solids and let the player climb in head-through-roof.
Dat truth (HumanSetup_CollisionSpheres_DatTruth): Setup 0x02000001
spheres = (0,0,0.475) r=0.48 and (0,0,1.350) r=0.48 - capsule top 1.83 =
Setup.Height 1.835. Retail collides with that sphere list verbatim
(CPhysicsObj::transition 0x00512dc0 -> init_sphere(GetNumSphere,
GetSphere, m_scale)).
Fix: PlayerMovementController + the GameWindow remote resolve now pass
sphereHeight: 1.835f (capsule top; head center 1.355 vs dat 1.350).
InitPath unchanged - captured-input replay fixtures (recorded 1.2
inputs) stay byte-identical. Register TS-46: the (radius, capsule-top)
scalar approximation of the Setup sphere list (5mm foot/head offsets;
remotes use human dims) with the retire path (plumb the sphere list).
Pins: WindowOpening_HeadCannotFit_EntryBlocked (22-frame walked approach
wall-slides at the sill, never enters 0x8A02017E) +

Structural capstone of the R5 movement-manager arc; zero behavior change.
Retail MovementManager (acclient.h /* 3463 */, 16 bytes / four pointers)
gives every CPhysicsObj ONE owner for its motion_interpreter +
moveto_manager. acdream carried them as loose per-entity objects wired by
hand at three sites. This slice:
- New src/AcDream.Core/Physics/Motion/MovementManager.cs — owns
MotionInterpreter + lazy MoveToManager (MakeMoveToManager 0x00524000 via
a MoveToFactory closure, the acdream stand-in for the physics_obj/
weenie_obj backpointers) + the relays with retail call shapes:
PerformMovement 0x005240d0 (types 1-5 -> minterp, 6-9 ->
MakeMoveToManager + moveto, (type-1)>8 -> 0x47), UseTime 0x005242f0
(moveto only), HitGround 0x00524300 (minterp FIRST then moveto),
HandleExitWorld 0x00524350 (minterp only), CancelMoveTo 0x005241b0,
HandleUpdateTarget 0x00524790, IsMovingTo 0x00524260.
- RemoteMotion.Movement + PlayerMovementController.Movement hold the ONE
facade; Motion/MoveTo become child views so the comment-dense call sites
read unchanged. The three wiring sites (EnsureRemoteMotionBindings,
EnterPlayerModeNow, the chase harness — same commit per the mirror rule)
construct through MoveToFactory + MakeMoveToManager(), preserving the
pre-facade eager timing (side-effect-free ctor = unobservable either way).
- Relay call sites repointed: both remote landing HitGround pairs + the
player landing pair, despawn HandleExitWorld, TickRemoteMoveTo + the
player Update UseTime, RouteServerMoveTo (takes the facade; routes via
the retail PerformMovement dispatch), InstallSpeculativeTurnToTarget,
host HandleUpdateTarget/InterruptCurrentMovement closures (retail
CPhysicsObj::HandleUpdateTarget @0x00512bf0 fan head + the TS-36
interrupt chain, now the literal facade relays).
- NOT absorbed per the slice spec: unpack_movement stays App
(RouteServerMoveTo + UM heads; Core.Net types stay out of Core.Physics);
TS-42 per-tick order untouched (R6); #170/#171 gate-passed machinery
untouched. PerformMovement's set_active(1) head not re-asserted (spawn
asserts Active; status quo — no new register row).
- Register: TS-41/TS-42 source wording freshened to the facade shape;
AD-36 retire note corrected (facade half closed; residue = entities
that never get a RemoteMotion). No new rows.
- Conformance: 15 new MovementManagerTests pin the dispatch table, lazy
create, relay targets/order, null tolerance. Suite 4052 green; the
183-case/funnel/moveto/chase/sticky suites UNMODIFIED (harness
construction mirrors production, test bodies untouched).

Group-melee interpenetration + facing drift: the R5-V1-ported
StickyManager/PositionManager were Core-only — the StickTo/Unstick seams
were unbound and every arrival radius was 0, so ACE's Sticky|UseSpheres
melee chases closed ~one body-radius too deep and froze at stale arrival
poses until the next wire re-arm. Retires TS-39.
Wiring (anchors re-verified against the named decomp this session):
- EntityPhysicsHost owns a PositionManager; HandleUpdateTarget fans
MoveToManager then PositionManager (CPhysicsObj::HandleUpdateTarget
0x00512bc0 order).
- Seams bound remote + player: MoveToManager.StickTo (BeginNextNode
sticky arrival @0x00529d3a), Unstick (PerformMovement head), and
MotionInterpreter.UnstickFromObject (UM funnel head, 0x0050eaea).
- AdjustOffset at the retail UpdatePositionInternal slot (@0x00512d0e):
NPC branch composes pre-sweep (steer is swept by ResolveWithTransition);
remote-player branch chains the combiner offset through the shared
delta frame (the interp stage) so sticky OVERWRITES when armed
(0x00555430 assigns m_fOrigin, not accumulates); player inside the
30 Hz physics quantum before UpdatePhysicsInternal.
- UseTime (the 1 s lease watchdog) at the UpdateObjectInternal tail
(@0x005159b3): unconditional per remote; player gated on the physics
tick (retail's MinQuantum gate skips UseTime too).
- Real setup cylsphere radii (CPartArray::GetRadius/GetHeight
0x005180a0/0x005180b0 = setup radius/height x ObjScale from the spawn
record): own via EnsureRemoteMotionBindings + player wiring; target via
RouteServerMoveTo AND the speculative use-walk install (retail resolves
the target PartArray at EVERY MoveToObject site — ACE PhysicsObj.cs:951).
- Teardown parity: exit_world (0x00514e60) UnStick + ClearTarget before
the ExitWorld notify; player teleport fires teleport_hook's tail
(UnStick in SetPosition + EntityPhysicsHost.NotifyTeleported =
ClearTarget + NotifyVoyeurOfEvent(Teleported) @0x00514f1b) so mobs
stuck to the player drop their sticks on a recall.
- SERVERVEL arbitration also yields to a stuck entity (same starvation
class as the #170 fix — sticky owns the between-snap translation).
- StickyManager.UseTime aligned to retail's strict > deadline
(0x00555626; ACE >): two V1 tests had pinned the >= edge — corrected.
Register: TS-39 deleted; TS-41 narrowed (stickyArmed gate); TS-43 added
(remote teleport_hook gap — self-corrects within the 1 s lease); AP-23
narrowed (real radii at the speculative site; only the use-radius
buckets remain invented).
Conformance: 2 new full-stack sticky scenarios in
RemoteChaseEndToEndHarnessTests (arrive -> stick -> strafing-target
gap+facing track -> lease expiry; unstick-on-rearm -> re-stick).
Full suite 4038 green.
Pre-commit adversarial diff review (3 lenses + per-finding refuters)
confirmed and fixed 4 findings: ObjScale-dead radius read, player
UseTime order inversion, missing teleport voyeur notify, speculative-
site radius asymmetry.
Awaiting the user visual gate: pack melee side-by-side vs retail
(attackers reshuffle + keep facing; some overlap is ACE-server-side).

#163: remove [autowalk-gate] (+ _lastAutowalkGateLogTime throttle clock,
PlayerMovementController), [autowalk-feed] (GameWindow player tracker
feed), and the short-lived [MOVETO-CANCEL] #162 capture probe. The
durable ProbeAutoWalk family (PhysicsDiagnostics owner + DebugPanel
toggle + the permanent [autowalk] probe sites) stays.
#162 closed WITHOUT adaptation: user A/B says retail does not glide, and
post-#161 acdream matches (user-verified walk/run-by-distance movetos +
clean mid-chain key takeover). Head-interrupt + CancelMoveTo re-audited
retail-verbatim against the raw (unpack_movement 0x00524440,
interrupt_current_movement 0x005101f0, MoveToManager::CancelMoveTo
0x00529930 armed-gate); the launch-162 capture shows ACE's mt-0
reflections carry the mover's real locomotion, so cancels never strand
the legs. The old glide was killed by the R4-V5 stack + #161's
apply-pass params fix. Evidence trail in ISSUES Recently-closed #162.
Suite 3,964 green.

The c2dc1a88 wedge fix paired every StopCompletely A9 node with a
completable motion-table type-5 entry via DefaultSink?.StopCompletely()
- but EnterPlayerModeNow called the initial SetPosition (whose teleport
idle is StopCompletely, R3-W6) BEFORE the sequencer/DefaultSink bind
block, so the login A9 node dispatched against a NULL sink and stayed
an orphan. Head-pop-any semantics mean a queue with one orphan never
reaches empty again (later completions just relabel the backlog), so
MotionsPending stayed true at every UseTime and the MoveToManager's
retail wait-for-anims gate (BeginTurnToHeading) never opened: every
server MoveTo armed (movingTo=True, Initialized=True, tracker fed,
node plan built) and the body never moved.
Pinned live by the [autowalk-gate] probe: type=MoveToObject init=True
contact=True motionsPending=True pm=[0x41000003] nodes=[TurnToHeading,
MoveToPosition] curCmd=0 - identical every half-second, forever.
Fix: the sequencer/sink bind block in EnterPlayerModeNow moves ABOVE
the initial physics Resolve + SetPosition (no data dependency - the
block only needs playerEntity/_animatedEntities). Teleport-arrival
SetPositions were already safe (sink long bound). Test rigs
(PlayerMoveToCutoverTests.MakeRig, W6EdgeDrivenMovementTests) mirror
the fixed order, and a new LoginQueue_DrainsToEmpty_UnderProductionFeed
test pins the invariant the probe caught: after login, pending_motions
must reach EMPTY under the production completion feed.
The [autowalk-gate]/[autowalk-feed] diagnostics stay in for the live
verify pass (TEMPORARY-tagged; strip when #5 closes). Full suite
green: 3,958.

Live bug (2026-07-03, user door test): a server MoveTo armed
(movingTo=True) but the local body never moved; the retail observer saw
ACE walk the server-side player to the door; the next local input
reasserted the stale position (rubber-band). Log evidence: the player's
pending_motions queue was non-empty on 92/94 MotionDone pops (remotes:
0/40) - MoveToManager's retail wait-for-anims gate
(BeginTurnToHeading's MotionsPending check) never opened.
ROOT CAUSE (found via a production-faithful repro test - the original
suite force-drained the queue, masking it): the R3 port MISIDENTIFIED
retail's StopCompletely_Internal body. It is NOT a physics velocity
zero - CPhysicsObj::StopCompletely_Internal (0x0050ead0) tailcalls
CPartArray::StopCompletelyInternal (0x00518890) which is
MotionTableManager::PerformMovement(type 5): an ANIMATION-side full
stop whose UNCONDITIONALLY-queued pending_animations entry is the
completable partner of the A9 pending_motions node
CMotionInterp::StopCompletely enqueues (raw @00527e90 between the
state writes and add_to_queue). Without the dispatch, every
StopCompletely (login/teleport SetPosition + every MoveToManager
PerformMovement head) left an orphan node with no completion - the
queue never drained at idle. (The R3 code comment claimed a register
row for the stand-in; none was ever added - porting the real mechanism
closes that violation without a row.)
Fix set (all retail-anchored):
- IInterpretedMotionSink gains StopCompletely() (default true = the
null-sink posture); MotionTableDispatchSink routes it to the R2
manager's already-ported type-5 op (StopObjectCompletely +
Ready-sentinel entry) + TurnStopped for the ObservedOmega seam.
- MotionInterpreter.StopCompletely calls DefaultSink?.StopCompletely()
at the exact retail slot (after the state writes, before
add_to_queue); the immediate set_velocity(Zero) is kept as the
documented physics-effect stand-in.
- PlayerMovementController ticks CheckForCompletedMotions after
UseTime - retail's per-tick CPartArray::HandleMovement slot
(0x00517d60 = MotionTableManager::UseTime = CheckForCompletedMotions
tailcall, called every tick from UpdateObjectInternal @005159a4).
NOTE: a first-cut per-tick apply_current_movement pump was tried and
REVERTED - retail's apply callers are all event-driven (hold-key,
HitGround/LeaveGround, ReportExhaustion), not per-tick; the remote
block's per-tick apply is a pre-existing adaptation outside this
fix's scope.
- The P1 autonomous-store family, completing the pin's port shape
(the gate landed in V5; the STORE side was missing):
(a) the unpack store (00509730: last_move_was_autonomous = wire
byte) in the GameWindow player branch - local player only for now
(remote interps have no WeenieObj, which A3 reads as IsThePlayer;
storing a remote's autonomous byte would mis-route their per-tick
apply onto the raw branch);
(b) input edges store =1 at the controller edge block - retail's
CPhysicsObj::DoMotion @00510030 / StopMotion @005100e0 /
TakeControlFromServer @006b32f4 input-boundary stores;
(c) section 2's per-frame velocity write now PRESERVES the flag
(V5's first cut stamped it per frame, the wrong altitude - retail
stores it at event boundaries only);
(d) InstallSpeculativeTurnToTarget stores false (models the wire
mt-6's unpack store; part of the AP-23 adaptation) so the
event-driven applies (e.g. HitGround mid-moveto) route interpreted
and cannot clobber the manager's dispatched motions with idle raw
state.
Tests: new ServerMoveToPosition_ProductionCompletionFeed_WalksToArrival
drives the controller under the PRODUCTION completion feed
(sequencer.Advance -> MotionDoneTarget) instead of force-draining -
this is the test that reproduced the live wedge (queue stuck at the
two A9 Ready orphans) and now proves the drain. Existing cutover tests
mirror the wire-path autonomous store before PerformMovement. Full
suite green: 3,957.

The local player now runs server MoveTos through the same verbatim
MoveToManager remotes got in V4. One commit, GameWindow + controller,
per the no-fan-out rule for coupled slices.
P1 gate (V0-pins.md P1, ported verbatim): CPhysics::SetObjectMovement
(0x00509690 @0050972e) drops any movement event whose wire autonomous
byte is set when the addressed object IsThePlayer - ACE's self-addressed
MoveToState reflection (MovementData.cs:162 IsAutonomous=1) never
reaches unpack_movement, which is what makes the retail unconditional
unpack-head interrupt safe. Gate placed AFTER the sequence gates
(retail order). The stale "ACE follows every mt=0x06 with an mt=0x00"
comment block dies with the code it excused (its causal story was
pre-#75; refuted in V0-pins P1).
Run-rate re-anchor (P1 contingency NOT needed - no AD row): the echo
tap ApplyServerRunRate is deleted outright. Both retail feeds already
exist: PlayerDescription skills via SetCharacterSkills (K-fix7) into
InqRunRate (preferred by apply_run_to_command/get_state_velocity), and
the mt-6/7 my_run_rate wire write (M13) now performed for the player by
the shared RouteServerMoveTo. The tap's InterpretedState.ForwardSpeed
overwrite was a pre-R3 mechanism that fought the ported machinery.
B.6 auto-walk deleted wholesale (~330 lines): fields, Begin/End/
DriveServerAutoWalk, IsServerAutoWalking, AutoWalkArrived, the
autoWalkConsumedMotion gates, the #69 turn-dir edge synthesizer, and
the relocated AutoWalkArrivalEpsilon/AutoWalkTurnRateFor constants
(AD-26 retired - the invented 5/30-degree bands are gone; arrival is
retail's distance predicate; turn-first is the TurnToHeading node).
TS-36 retired: Motion.InterruptCurrentMovement binds to
MoveTo.CancelMoveTo(ActionCancelled). Movement-key edges (ctor-default
params carry the 0x8000 CancelMoveTo bit), Shift (set_hold_run
interrupt:true), jump(), StopCompletely, and teleport all cancel a
running moveto through the retail chain - verified by controller-level
tests, not assumed.
MoveToComplete seam WIDENED to natural completion (Core): retail's
BeginNextNode empty-queue completion is inline CleanUp+StopCompletely
(raw @00529d47) and notifies nothing - the client-addition seam had to
fire there (both sticky and non-sticky exits) or AD-27's deferred
close-range Use/PickUp re-send never fires. Never fires on CancelMoveTo.
AD-27 re-anchored from the deleted AutoWalkArrived event.
InstallSpeculativeTurnToTarget rewired through the player's manager
(retail 9a/9b client-initiated shape): close-range -> TurnToObject,
far -> MoveToObject; AP-23 radius buckets + the #77 CanCharge
prediction survive as the params source (row re-anchored).
Per-tick: MoveTo.UseTime() at the old DriveServerAutoWalk slot
(provisional until R6, per the plan's placement decision); the P4
player-side TargetTracker twin (fields + pre-Update feed) mirrors the
remote adapter (AP-79 row widened). HitGround dual-call added on the
player landing edge AND the remote landing site - the latter closes a
V4 wiring-contract gap the adversarial review caught (retail 2d order:
minterp then moveto; without it a landing NPC's moveto never re-arms).
Also from the adversarial review: the mt-8 unresolvable-target degrade
now performs retail's params.desired_heading = wire_heading
substitution (decomp 2f case 8; invisible against ACE per P6, required
for the verbatim degrade); the V4 remote MoveToManager binding gets a
real curTime clock (the ctor stub advanced 1/30s per READ, skewing the
progress/fail-distance windows - note: the pending V4 NPC smoke ran on
the skewed clock); TS-33 row extended with the orientation-diff gap
(ApproxPositionEqual vs retail Frame::is_equal full-frame compare - a
stationary heading snap does not reach the wire; masked against ACE,
R7 outbound scope owns the fix).
MoveToMath gains HeadingFromYaw/YawFromHeading (the P5 scalar bridge
for yaw-authoritative bodies - the player's heading snap must write
Yaw, not the quaternion the controller re-derives every frame).
Tests: 3,956 green (+8). New: MoveToManagerCompletionSeamTests (arrival
fires once with None, no refire, cancel never fires, sticky handoff
order) + PlayerMoveToCutoverTests (EnterPlayerModeNow-shape rig: walks
to arrival with zero user input and zero MotionStateChanged frames -
the #75 invariant by construction; TurnToHeading rotates Yaw and snaps
exact; W-edge and jump cancel without firing complete). W6 edge suite
retargeted from the deleted echo tap to a direct apply pass (the
regression lives in ApplyInterpretedMovement, not the wire trigger).
Spec: docs/research/2026-07-03-r4-moveto/r4-port-plan.md section 3 V5.

Every remote's server-directed movement now runs the verbatim retail
MoveToManager. EnsureRemoteMotionBindings constructs it per remote with
the full V2 seam set (position/heading/velocity providers, the P4
TargetTracker adapter via setTarget/clearTarget storing the tracked
guid on RemoteMotion) and binds InterruptCurrentMovement ->
CancelMoveTo(0x36) - the retail interrupt chain (TS-36 remote side).
UM routing is retail's unpack_movement dispatch (0x00524440): the
head-interrupt + unstick fire for EVERY movement type, then mt 6/7
build MovementParameters.FromWire(raw bitfield - now surfaced by the
parser) + a MovementStruct (mt 6 resolves the target guid against the
entity table, degrading to MoveToPosition at the wire origin per the
plan's 2f; my_run_rate written from MoveToRunRate per @300603) ->
MoveTo.PerformMovement; mt 8/9 likewise via FromWireTurnTo; ONLY mt 0
flows through the interpreted funnel (the PlanMoveToStart seed is
DELETED - retail never routes MoveTo types through the interpreted
state copy).
Per tick: the P4 tracker feeds HandleUpdateTarget(Ok/ExitWorld) from
the live entity table, then UseTime runs the manager's steering/
arrival/fail handlers, then apply_current_movement recomputes velocity
- the same shape ordinary locomotion uses. The legacy driver branches,
the stale-destination timer, and the ClampApproachVelocity band-aid
are gone; arrival now uses retail cylinder distance (watch melee-range
stop distance in the visual pass).
DELETED: RemoteMoveToDriver.cs + its tests (OriginToWorld relocated
verbatim to MoveToMath; the B.6 auto-walk's two surviving constants
inlined into PlayerMovementController, dying with it in V5);
ServerControlledLocomotion.PlanMoveToStart + tests (PlanFromVelocity
survives - new AP-80 row); the RemoteMotion MoveTo capture fields.
Registers: AD-8/AD-9/AP-8/AP-9 retired; AP-79 (TargetTracker adapter,
retire R5) + AP-80 added.
Full suite green: 3,948 passed. Live smoke launched - NPC
chase/wander behavior pending user verification (recorded in the
session handoff).

The local player now drives the SAME pipeline remotes use. The
controller's per-frame RawMotionState rebuild (level-triggered D6.2) is
replaced by retail's CommandInterpreter altitude: key EDGES fire
DoMotion/StopMotion (0x00528d20/0x00528530) and the Shift edge fires
set_hold_run (0x00528b70, caller-0x006b33ca shape) — the interpreter's
own RawState mutates via ApplyMotion/RemoveMotion and every dispatch
routes the funnel + DefaultSink into the sequencer. GameWindow's
UpdatePlayerAnimation (169 lines) is DELETED with both
LocalAnimationCommand/LocalAnimationSpeed MovementResult fields and all
three synthesis sites (K-fix5 pacing, Walk→Run cycle selection, the
auto-walk overrides): run pacing now comes from apply_run_to_command's
my_run_rate promotion — the same source remotes use; airborne-Falling
falls out of contact_allows_move (the funnel's second dispatch).
Auto-walk's #69 turn-phase legs re-expressed as DoMotion(Turn*) edges;
teleport idle = StopCompletely (retail's full stop) + an edge-tracker
reset so held keys walk straight out of a portal.
Map discovery R1 fixed: ChargeJump() now fires at charge START (the
0x0056afac input-boundary site) — StandingLongJump had NEVER armed in
production despite the W3 port.
TWO root-cause fixes the cutover surfaced (each would have been
invisible under the old synthesis layer):
- CurrentHoldKey was a shadow FIELD synced only on the raw dispatch
branch; set_hold_run writes RawState.CurrentHoldKey, so an edge-driven
Shift toggle followed by DoMotion read a stale None and lost the run
promotion. Now an alias of RawState.CurrentHoldKey (retail's
adjust_motion reads raw_state.current_holdkey directly).
- The controller's grounded velocity + jump-launch writes used
set_local_velocity's default autonomous:false, silently clearing
LastMoveWasAutonomous and flipping the A3 dual dispatch to the
interpreted branch for the local player. Both marked autonomous.
EXPECTED-DIFFS (map §6, for the R3 visual pass): #45's 1.248x sidestep
factor + ACDREAM_ANIM_SPEED_SCALE died with UpdatePlayerAnimation —
local sidestep pacing now matches how remotes have always played;
auto-walk-at-run plays walk-pace legs until R4; ApplyServerRunRate's
apply_current_movement goes live (Branch-2 fast re-speed absorbs the
echo — retail's own mid-run speed-change mechanism).
Wire: outbound values stay input-derived (the L.2b-verified byte
stream untouched; RawState-sourcing needs the map §2b cdb TODO and R7
owns outbound). MotionStateChanged = the old comparison minus the dead
localAnimCmd leg, OR any edge fired.
Full suite green: 3,731 passed. Live smoke: in-world, user-driven
input through the new path (walk/turn/strafe), 12k entities, zero
exceptions.

Core (dedicated agent, independently reviewed): HitGround 0x00528ac0 /
LeaveGround 0x00528b00 verbatim (creature+gravity gates, the
RemoveLinkAnimations seam — K-fix18's retail mechanism — velocity via
GetLeaveGroundVelocity with the autonomous flag, jump-state resets,
apply_current_movement re-sync); enter_default_state 0x00528c80 per A8
(fresh states, InitializeMotionTables seam, sentinel APPENDED without
draining pending_motions — pinned, Initted=1, LeaveGround tail);
Initted gates; the A3 IsThePlayer dual dispatch in
apply_current_movement / ReportExhaustion / SetWeenieObject /
SetPhysicsObject (a remote player routes INTERPRETED — the
ACE-divergence pin); set_hold_run 0x00528b70 + SetHoldKey 0x00528bb0
(XOR guard, None-only-from-Run); adjust_motion creature guard wired
(TS-34 retired); PhysicsBody.LastMoveWasAutonomous +
set_local_velocity(autonomous). Port discovery: retail's
apply_raw_movement 0x005287e0 / apply_interpreted_movement 0x00528600
ARE the already-shipped D6.2a/funnel functions — the dual dispatch
composes them instead of duplicating.
App cutover (orchestrator): the skipTransitionLink flag + both K-fix18
call sites DELETED (AP-74 retired). MotionInterpreter.DefaultSink routes
apply_current_movement's interpreted branch through the REAL funnel
dispatch when a sink is bound — so a remote's LeaveGround engages
Falling via the contact-gated funnel, replacing the forced SetCycle
(J19); the per-remote MotionTableDispatchSink is now PERSISTENT
(EnsureRemoteMotionBindings: DefaultSink + RemoveLinkAnimations +
InitializeMotionTables seams, idempotent from both the UM and
VectorUpdate paths; wire velocity re-applied after LeaveGround so it
stays authoritative). Player: seams bound to the player sequencer; the
controller's grounded→airborne EDGE now fires LeaveGround (jump()
clears OnWalkable and the same frame's transition detection fires it —
retail's order; walk-off-a-ledge gets the momentum fallback + link
strip it never had); the manual jump-block LeaveGround deleted;
LastMoveWasAutonomous set at the controller chokepoint (W6 refines).
Trace S8 re-expressed as the retail mechanism (Falling dispatch +
RemoveAllLinkAnimations = same final state the flag produced). 43 new
lifecycle tests. Registers: TS-34 + AP-74 retired; TS-38, AP-77, AP-78
added. Full suite: 3,665 passed. Live smoke: in-world clean.

JumpChargeIsAllowed 0x00527a50 (CanJump→0x49 before posture; Fallen +
Crouch..Sleeping→0x48), ChargeJump 0x005281c0 — now the ONLY place
standing_longjump arms (grounded Contact+OnWalkable + forward Ready +
no sidestep/turn, raw @305453-305466); the S2a-flagged side effect
inside contact_allows_move is DELETED (J6) with regression pins that
contact checks never touch the flag (the funnel's StandingLongJump
branch is local-player scope; the controller wires ChargeJump in W4/W6
— remotes never charge client-side, no interim regression).
jump_is_allowed 0x005282b0 full chain replaces the 15-line
approximation: IsFullyConstrained→0x47 (new PhysicsBody stub, TS-35)
BEFORE the pending-head peek (A2 ordering, pinned); head peek fires
whenever the queue is non-empty (no ACE Count>1 gate; nonzero
jump_error_code short-circuits the whole chain — test proves
JumpStaminaCost is never consulted); retail entry shape verbatim
(non-creature-weenie and gravity-off skip the ground gate; null
physics obj → 0x24 NOT 8 per A10); charge → MotionAllowsJump(fwd)
double-check → JumpStaminaCost gate (new IWeenieObject member,
always-affordable PlayerWeenie stub — TS-5 extended).
GetJumpVZ/GetLeaveGroundVelocity: epsilon corrected to retail's
0.000199999995f (was 0.001 — regression-pinned at extent 0.0005);
A5 shape (clamp 1.0, weenie-null 10.0f); A6 momentum fallback fires
only when ALL THREE components are sub-epsilon and overwrites all
three with global→local(m_velocityVector).
Jump 0x00528780: InterruptCurrentMovement no-op seam (TS-36, →R4
cancel_moveto), fires unconditionally; standing_longjump cleared ONLY
on failure (success keeps it — pinned). IWeenieObject.IsThePlayer()
(PlayerWeenie true) lands for W4's A3 dispatch.
51 new tests + 1 re-pin; superseded pre-W3 jump tests removed. Full
suite: 3,623 passed. Registers: TS-5 extended, TS-35/36/37 added.
Implemented by a dedicated agent against the W0-pinned spec; arming
gates + entry shape verified against the quoted raw text.

MotionInterpreter implements IMotionDoneSink: pending_motions
(LinkedList<MotionNode>, AD-34 wording) + add_to_queue 0x00527b80 +
motions_pending 0x00527fe0 + MotionDone 0x00527ec0 verbatim (action-class
head → UnstickFromObject no-op seam (→R5 StickyManager) + BOTH states'
action-FIFO pops; head popped UNCONDITIONALLY — A7: never match-by-id,
params unread in this build) + HandleExitWorld 0x00527f30 (the raw
decompile's null-physics-obj branch would infinite-loop if translated
literally — adjudicated as retail dead code, documented on the method) +
is_standing_still 0x00527fa0 + MotionAllowsJump 0x005279e0 with the
A1-pinned literal blocklist (28-case boundary table test: Fallen blocks,
Falling passes — ACE's transposition NOT copied).
Queue producers wired into the funnel per the decomp anchors
(re-verified from the raw text): DispatchInterpretedMotion's success
path computes jump_error_code via retail's double-check shape
(motion_allows_jump(motion), then forward_command when non-action;
the DisableJumpDuringLink params leg is TODO(W5) — no MovementParameters
threaded yet) + add_to_queue; apply_interpreted_movement's turn-stop
re-queues the Ready node (@305766-305785 — the plan's producer #2 and #3
are the SAME site; StopInterpretedMotion's internal add_to_queue @305657
is W5 scope). ContextId=0 with TODO(W5): retail's own compiled code
reads an UNINITIALIZED local for it at this call site.
GameWindow: MotionDoneTarget now binds the entity's REAL consumer —
player via PlayerMovementController.Motion (new internal property),
remotes via RemoteMotion.Motion — resolved AT FIRE TIME (a remote's
RemoteMotion can be created after its first anim tick; an eager capture
would drop completions forever). Despawn runs BOTH layers' exit-world
drains (manager then interp) per §4. AD-36 narrowed (consumed for
creature-class; doors/statics recorder-only until R5).
51 new conformance cases incl. the end-to-end chain test:
MotionTableManager.AnimationDone → sink → interp pending head pops in
step. 183-case observer-trace + funnel suites green unchanged (queue
side effects additive). Full suite: 3,582 passed.
Implemented by a dedicated agent (MotionInterpreter side) against the
W0-pinned spec; producer placements + MotionAllowsJump branch algebra
independently reviewed against the raw decomp; GameWindow wiring by the
orchestrator.

The outbound MoveToState now sends the RAW forward_speed 1.0 (omitted by
default-difference packing) instead of the pre-computed runRate, matching what
retail's client sends.
Settled the open question with a live echo-test: acdream sends forward_speed=1.0,
ACE broadcasts back RunForward @ runRate (not 1.0), and a retail observer saw
+Acdream run at full pace. So ACE RECOMPUTES the broadcast run speed from the
character's run skill and auto-upgrades WalkForward+HoldKey.Run -> RunForward for
observers. The earlier PlayerMovementController comment citing ACE
MovementData.cs ("ACE relays the speed, so the wire must send run_rate") was
wrong; corrected.
Changes:
- PlayerMovementController section 6: forward wire command is WalkForward @ 1.0
(+ HoldKey.Run when running); LocalAnimationCommand still carries RunForward for
the local cycle. Backward already 1.0. The MotionStateChanged detection now
keys the walk<->run toggle off HoldKey + LocalAnimationCommand (forward_speed is
constant 1.0); the forward_speed comparison is retained but never fires.
- GameWindow: reverted the D6.2b echo-test one-liner; the wire RawMotionState
takes forward_speed from result (now 1.0).
The wire and the D6.2a local velocity are now both raw-1.0. Threading them onto
one shared RawMotionState (removing section-6's duplicate build) is a
behavior-neutral cleanup follow-up.
Full suite green (3255). Docs: roadmap + pseudocode doc updated with the
echo-test finding.
