Member-wise deletion of the three legacy resolver members named in
docs/research/2026-08-05-c5a-contract.md: PhysicsEngine.Resolve,
PhysicsEngine.HasCellSurface, and PhysicsEngine.ResolvePlacement. An
exhaustive receiver census over src/ found zero production callers of any
of the three — every production placement writer already reaches the
canonical PhysicsEngine.SetPosition transaction exclusively through
RuntimeSetPositionState (three call sites total). The deletion is purely
member-wise: IsSpawnCellReady and AdjustPosition, which shared the same
source region as the deleted members, are preserved byte-identical — every
remaining production caller of either (including PhysicsCameraCollisionProbe,
AdjustPosition's sole surviving production caller) is unaffected.
Companion changes:
- PlayerMovementController's 3-argument SetPosition test overload is renamed
to SeedPlacementForTest (internal) and CommitPreparedPosition is deleted;
83 call sites across 19 test files were mechanically renamed to match.
- Seven pinned test dispositions from the contract are executed:
3.1 (PhysicsEngineTests.cs: 11 legacy-resolver tests deleted, 6
ResolveWithTransition tests kept), 3.2/3.3/3.4 (re-point to canonical
SetPosition, with TransitionScratchDifferentialTests.cs additionally
gaining positive IsCommitted assertions after each bitwise comparison so
the differential proves a placement actually committed, not just that two
possibly-uncommitted results match), 3.5 (Runtime rename), and 3.6
(PlayerMovementPlacementTransactionTests.cs rewritten — its xmldoc now
states plainly that the render-root publish moved to
RuntimeSetPositionState.cs, but the sticky-release relocation claim was
false and is retracted; this disposition's coverage loss is the sticky
release path, not silently absorbed elsewhere).
- Stale `PhysicsEngine.Resolve`/`Resolve` doc citations in CellTransit.cs,
PlayerMovementController.cs, and HeadlessSessionWorldProjection.cs are
corrected to name the surviving canonical entry points by symbol
(SetPosition, AdjustSetPosition/AdjustPosition, ResolveWithTransition)
rather than fragile line numbers.
Retires AP-1 and AD-1 in docs/architecture/retail-divergence-register.md:
both rows described production zero-delta placement routing remaining on
the legacy resolver pending the Slice 4B2/4B route cutover; that resolver
no longer exists, so the condition each row tracked is now structurally
false rather than merely narrowed. AP-145 (routed through the prior commit)
and this commit's AP-1/AD-1 together bring the section counts to 101 AP / 47
AD active rows.
Builds on the AP-145 fix (previous commit) — this commit's staged tree was
independently rebuilt and its four suites independently rerun on top of
that commit before this commit was created, in addition to the combined
rebuild/rerun below.
Full-solution build: 0 errors (21 pre-existing warnings, all unrelated).
Suite results (combined tree): Core 4270/4271 passed (1 skip; the single
DatSoundCacheTests concurrent-decode-dedup failure is a known load-sensitive
race, confirmed passing standalone and unrelated to this change), Runtime
1176/1176, Headless 86/86, App 4132/4135 (3 skips).

Runtime GetObjectA lookup became intentionally non-constructing, so static doors and corpses entered MoveToObject without a physics host and their target snapshot timed out at the origin. Ensure the canonical minimal host exists before routing the server move.
Runtime first-entry also grounds the local player before graphical PartArray attachment. That could leave an unmatched startup CMotionInterp node ahead of all later use and cast motion. Drain matched PartArray entries first, then retire only the impossible pre-attach suffix at the presentation attach boundary.
Add focused regressions for static-target host materialization and attach-order reconciliation. User verified near and distant object use in the connected client; focused App tests pass 3/3.
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 CMotionInterp::get_adjusted_max_speed (0x00527D00, byte-decoded:
bare rate unless RunForward; forward_speed x 4.0 when running;
current_speed_factor proven a ctor-constant 1.0 at 0x00528C34) and swaps
all five interpolation catch-up call sites to it - retail's
fUseAdjustedSpeed_ static (.data 0x0081F418 = 1) makes this the live
branch, so standing/walking remotes now catch up at ~2x runRate instead
of 4x too fast (the #41/#165 presentation family). Autorun now hard-
forces Run for its duration and cancels on every fresh forward press
(CommandInterpreter::HandleNewForwardMovement 0x006b3d60 is literally
SetAutoRun(0,1)); the old test pin codified the divergence. AP-30
retired: retail Frame::is_equal genuinely uses the 0.0002 epsilon - the
row recorded a non-divergence. Three catch-up test pins re-baselined to
retail semantics with citations. Full Release suite 9,983/0.

A full Release App run failed once at Issue181WallPressEquilibriumTests
.Diagnostic_WallPressedCamera_EyeWanderAndViewerCellStability. It passed in
isolation and did not recur across five further whole-suite runs, and the diff
under test touched only the world texture-creation stack -- nothing in camera,
visibility or physics. A cross-class parallelism race was the only plausible
mechanism, not a regression.
Ten App test classes share three process-global mutable statics, and xUnit runs
distinct test classes in parallel by default:
- CameraDiagnostics: AlignToSlope, CollideCamera, TranslationStiffness,
RotationStiffness, UseRetailChaseCamera. These are not merely written, they
are written AWAY from their defaults -- RetailChaseCameraTests sets
AlignToSlope and CollideCamera to false, and three classes set
UseRetailChaseCamera to false -- while RetailChaseCamera.Update,
CameraController.Active, CameraFrameController, WorldRenderFrameBuilder and
MouseLookController read them.
- RenderingDiagnostics.ProbeFlapEnabled, written by CornerFloodReplayTests
and Issue181WallPressEquilibriumTests.
- System.Console.Out, redirected by those same two classes to capture probe
output.
Every one of these classes already saved and restored in try/finally. That is
correct within a class and remains necessary, but it was never sufficient. A
finally bounds a mutation in TIME along its own thread; it cannot stop another
class from reading the static inside that window. Worse, two overlapping
save/restore pairs can interleave so the second restore writes back the FIRST
one's temporary value, leaving the global permanently wrong for the rest of the
run. The Console.Out case is the sharpest instance: an interleaved restore can
install a DISPOSED StringWriter as the process-wide Console.Out, which then
throws in unrelated tests. Serializing the sharers is what makes each class's
existing finally sufficient.
The fix is a marker CollectionDefinition applied to the ten sharing classes,
following the WorldEnvironmentControllerCollection precedent. No collection
fixture: several members are [Theory] cases that need different knob values per
case, so a fixture cannot own the save/restore without rewriting every member's
internals, and it would not help the read side at all. Because every member
references the same compile-time const for the collection name, the grouping
cannot silently drift via a typo.
Membership is deliberately narrow. It covers the eight writers plus two classes
that drive production code which READS a knob another member moves off its
default (HouseExitWalkReplayTests and CameraFrameControllerTests both run
RetailChaseCamera.Update and assert on the resulting eye). Classes that merely
construct a CameraController without a retail chase camera are NOT members --
their reads fall through the null branch and are insensitive.
No production code changed; no assertion was weakened, and no retry, sleep or
tolerance was added.
Verification. Base commit f6275f45 measured empirically at 3,763 passed / 3
skipped. Post-fix: 136 whole-suite Release runs. Every failure observed was in
the pre-existing zero-allocation family tracked as #250 (an Expected 0 / Actual
N bytes assertion), and none was in any collection member. A matched 55-run
baseline at f6275f45 reproduced that same family, confirming it predates this
change. Serialization cost is inside run-to-run noise: the suite is ~3 s of a
~4.5 s wall-clock dotnet test, and the ten serialized classes are a small
fraction of it.
