User-verified: casting fixed (exhaustion-edge gate) and monster attack
animations restored (spawn settle placement + lost-cell retry). Final
session evidence: 14/15 spawn settles grounded; Falling-refusal spam
collapsed 2,954 -> 15 transient pre-settle lines.
Strips the [UM-ACT]/[MT-FAIL]/[SPAWN-PLACE]/[remote-edge] probes, the
MotionInterpreter.DiagnosticGuid plumbing, and the two throwaway probe
tests (motion-table attack sweep, vitae color dump - both findings are
recorded in ISSUES/research). Complete Release suite: 10,030 passed /
5 skips / 0 failures.

The [SPAWN-PLACE] probe showed placements succeeding with contact=False:
find_placement_pos validates the spot but the sphere sits a few cm above
the floor with no touch. Retail gains spawn contact from the FIRST
GRAVITY FRAME (every CPhysicsObj simulates, falls, touches); our
stationary remotes never run a physics frame. The seed now compresses
that settle: a short downward ResolveWithTransition from the server
position snaps the body onto the floor, and its touch grants the contact
plane + CONTACT/ON_WALKABLE via the verbatim commit. No floor within
reach = stays airborne, exactly like retail's fall.
The retry predicate now watches the CONTACT transient (the flag
contact_allows_move reads) instead of ContactPlaneValid - a DR-tick
writeback can set plane DATA from last-known state without real contact,
which is why the heavy attackers in the retry-session log got exactly
one placement attempt and then 250+ refused Falling dispatches.

The creation-only spawn placement could no-op or fail during the login
flood (cell id not yet hydrated / streaming collision not resident) with
nothing retrying - monsters created in that window stayed
airborne-flagged forever and their action animations remained refused.
Retail's answer to 'object addressed before its cell exists' is the
CObjectMaint lost-cell list (GotoLostCell): park, re-place when the cell
is available. The UM dispatch path now retries SeedRemoteSpawnPlacement
while the body has never been successfully placed (no contact AND no
stored plane); one success ends the retries.
Probes: [SPAWN-PLACE] logs each placement outcome (guid/cell/ok/
contact/walkable); [UM-ACT]/[MT-FAIL] now carry the owning guid via
MotionInterpreter.DiagnosticGuid (probe-identity-attribution lesson)
plus the body's live contact/walkable flags.

The [MT-FAIL] probe caught combat-stance monsters constantly failing to
dispatch 0x40000015 (Falling): their bodies were airborne-flagged while
standing. contact_allows_move (0x00528dd0) requires Contact+OnWalkable
and silently refuses every action animation for an airborne mover - a
spawned-standing monster's swings never played until it first moved.
Retail never has this state: CreateObject spawns run the placement
transition (CPhysicsObj::SetPosition -> SetPositionInternal 0x00515330),
which establishes CONTACT/ON_WALKABLE from the floor at spawn. Our
remote creation seeded a raw position with no placement.
SeedRemoteSpawnPlacement mirrors RemoteTeleportPlacement: engine
placement resolve (Setup-derived cylinder, TS-46) + the verbatim
CommitSetPositionTransition, wired at BOTH RemoteMotion creation sites
(UM-triggered creation - so a first-ever-UM attack animates in the same
packet - and ordinary first-UP creation). Unplaceable results leave the
body airborne exactly like a failed retail placement.
Also adds the [UM-ACT] (wire action items + stamp-gate verdict) and
[MT-FAIL] (refused animation dispatches) probes, riding
ACDREAM_DUMP_MOTION=1, which are what convicted the body state.
