Phase 2 diagnostic chain identified the EXACT cause of 26/123 Holtburg
cells silently failing in WB's PrepareEnvCellMeshData:
ArgumentOutOfRangeException thrown from Setup.Unpack inside
DatReaderWriter when WB calls TryGet<Setup>(stab.Id, ...) on a stab id
whose prefix is GfxObj (0x01xxxxxx), not Setup (0x02xxxxxx).
DatReaderWriter finds the file in Portal's tree (GfxObjs and Setups
share tree-lookups), attempts to parse GfxObj bytes as Setup format,
throws OOR. Exception bubbles to PrepareMeshData's outer try/catch
which silently swallows + returns null. Entire cell fails to upload.
This commit lands the diagnostic infrastructure that surfaced the bug:
- WbMeshAdapter: replaced NullLogger<ObjectMeshManager> with a small
Console-backed ConsoleErrorLogger<T> private class. Filters to
LogLevel.Error+. WB's existing _logger.LogError(ex, ...) at the
swallow site now writes [wb-error] lines with type + message + top 5
stack frames. Bridges WB's intentional log point to acdream's console.
- WbMeshAdapter: extended [indoor-upload] NULL_RESULT probe with
reader-divergence diagnostic (ourCellDb.TryGet, wbResolveId.Count,
wbSelectedType, wbDbIsPortal, wbDbTryGet<EnvCell>, hadRenderData).
Made it possible to rule out cache-hits and reader-divergence as
causes before identifying the real one.
- Cause report at docs/research/2026-05-19-indoor-cell-rendering-cause.md
documents the full chain: 55 ArgumentOutOfRangeException stack traces
captured in one launch, all from PrepareEnvCellMeshData line 1223.
The fix itself (1-line guard at WB's TryGet<Setup> call site) is applied
to references/WorldBuilder/.../ObjectMeshManager.cs — which is a git
submodule. Will be committed separately to the WB submodule after
visual verification.
