8682a8db70 close #125: bounded upload retry kills the sticky-drop debt (failed GL uploads were never re-staged)
The GL root cause was fixed in fcade06 (the gpu_us query-ring stale
errors). This closes the remaining design debt: a genuinely-failed
UploadMeshData was dropped permanently.

Exact mechanism (traced this session): UploadMeshData's catch returns
null, the staged item is already consumed, and _renderData stays empty -
but the prepared data lingers in _cpuMeshCache, so the #128 EnsureLoaded
re-arm hits PrepareMeshDataAsync's CPU-cache short-circuit
(ObjectMeshManager.cs:448-453) which returns the cached data WITHOUT
re-staging it for upload. The mesh stays invisible until CPU-cache
eviction - session-sticky under low cache pressure (the in-tower
scenario).

Fix: the per-frame Tick drain (WbMeshAdapter) now re-stages a failed
upload for the NEXT frame via ObjectMeshManager.UploadOrRequeue, bounded
by MaxUploadRetries (3). The attempt counter lives on the ObjectMeshData
object so it resets to 0 naturally on re-prepare. Re-stages are
collected and re-enqueued AFTER the drain loop, never inside it, so a
deterministic failure cannot spin the queue within a single frame; past
the cap it gives up with a loud [up-retry] ... giving up line - a
genuine GL defect now surfaces instead of the old silent permanent drop
or an unbounded retry storm. Retail loads content synchronously and has
no such failure mode; this converges the async pipeline toward that
guarantee.

The uncaught GenerateMipmaps path (open-question c) is INTENTIONALLY
left to surface errors - a blanket catch there would mask future real
defects (no-workarounds rule), and its trigger (fcade06) is retired.

No visual gate (robustness). Build green; App.Tests 264 + WbMeshAdapter
tests green. No GL-context test seam exists for the upload path, so the
bounded retry is verified by construction + the regression suite.

7bbb169c6c #128 STRUCTURAL: missing meshes re-request their load at the POINT OF USE - permanent invisibility becomes impossible
The registration-time re-arm was insufficient and the user proved it
(ran back from the lifestone -> broken stairs + exposed barrel again):
a preparation cancelled by landblock churn AFTER the last registration
event has no later event to re-fire it - crossing blocks loads/unloads
them repeatedly behind the player, so the cancel-after-last-register
window is routinely hit on any cross-country run.

The structural fix: the draw dispatcher touches every
missing-but-referenced mesh every frame (the meshMissing slow path) -
THAT is the one site a retry can never be missed from. Both miss paths
(per-MeshRef and per-Setup-part) now call WbMeshAdapter.EnsureLoaded
(idempotent passthrough to PrepareMeshDataAsync, which early-outs on
existing data and dedups pending tasks), deduped per Draw pass.
Retail-equivalence: retail loads synchronously - geometry is never
permanently absent; this converges the async pipeline to the same
guarantee regardless of cancellation/eviction timing.

Also fixes the #53-one-level-deeper hole found en route: a missing
SETUP PART did not mark the entity incomplete, so a partial batch set
could cache permanently for Setup-shaped render data.

New apparatus: [mesh-miss] once-per-id line under ACDREAM_WB_DIAG=1 -
any future missing mesh names itself instead of needing a live repro.

120aeff720 #126 RETAIL-CORRECTED: restores commit the server Z - retail never re-derives position from surfaces
The user caught the process failure: two snap fixes were written without
reading retails restore code. The named decomp settles it -
CPhysicsObj::SetPositionInternal (0x00515bd0, pc:283892-283945) treats
the supplied Position as INPUT: AdjustPosition resolves which cell
CONTAINS it, CheckPositionInternal/find_valid_position VALIDATES it
through the collision transition, and the no-cell case goes
store_position + GotoLostCell. There is NO terrain or surface
re-grounding anywhere in the restore path. Trust + validate.

Both prior shapes diverged: grounding outdoor claims to terrainZ warped
a roof-deck logout (ACEs authoritative z=127.2 on the AAB3 tower)
through the roof into the building volume -> the transparent-interior
spawn on every login; the cell-walkable scan that replaced it missed
shell-geometry decks entirely (no EnvCell owns the deck surface) and
failed silently - the user logged in transparent at the tower bottom
again.

Fix: a zero-delta outdoor restore above terrain commits the claims Z
verbatim ([snap] line says so); the first physics tick validates and
settles against the REAL collision world (the BR-7 building channel
covers the deck). max(terrain, z) stays as the under-terrain sanity
bound - our recoverable stand-in for retails lost-cell machinery
(documented divergence, same class as the #107 demote).

c78720127a fix(render): #105 white indoor walls — restore WB's per-frame staged-texture flush dropped in the N.4/O-T4 extraction
Root cause: TextureAtlasManager.AddTexture only STAGES texture content (PBO
write + ManagedGLTextureArray._pendingUpdates); the actual TexSubImage3D
copies + mipmap regeneration happen in ProcessDirtyUpdates, which WB drives
once per frame via ObjectMeshManager.GenerateMipmaps() from its render loop
(WB GameScene.cs:975, just before the opaque pass). GameScene is the file we
replaced with GameWindow, so the call site was silently dropped — staged
updates only reached the GPU as a side effect of PBO growth (UpdateLayerInternal
flushes pending updates before orphaning the PBO). Every layer staged after an
array's LAST growth kept undefined TexStorage3D content behind a valid,
resident bindless sampler handle: white/garbage walls, zh==0, dat tripwires
silent — exactly the #105 signature. Only ObjectRenderBatch.BindlessTextureHandle
consumers are affected (EnvCellRenderer cell shells = indoor walls); entities
resolve via TextureCache (immediate TexImage2D) and terrain via TerrainAtlas
(immediate GenerateMipmap), which is why only indoor walls ever struck.

Fix: WbMeshAdapter.Tick() now calls _meshManager.GenerateMipmaps() after the
staged-upload drain — Tick runs before all draw passes (GameWindow OnRender),
the exact WB-equivalent position.

Evidence (ACDREAM_PROBE_TEXFLUSH=1 apparatus, kept env-gated):
- pre-fix (texflush-prefix.log): pending updates climb 0->48->...->142 and
  park at 126 across 34/34 atlas arrays at standstill, forever (19 heartbeats);
  brief dips only at PBO-growth crossings — the broken contract live.
- post-fix (texflush-postfix.log): every line after=0 — staged updates drain
  the same frame, all 34 arrays clean.

Intermittency explained: background decode-completion order shuffles which
textures land in the never-flushed tail; whether a visible wall samples one is
per-run luck. Also explains the #110 correlation: znear=0.1 makes close-up
geometry newly visible -> more prepare/upload pressure indoors -> bigger tail
-> higher strike probability. The near plane is mechanism-innocent (re-land
follows as its own commit).

Baseline maintained: App 223 / UI 420 / Net 294 / Core 1377 green + 4
pre-existing #99-era failures + 1 skip; CornerFloodReplayTests (5) and
CameraCornerSealReplayTests (2) gates green.

4b4f687070 feat(render): Phase A8 Wave 3 — wire EnvCellRenderer into landblock streaming
Six surgical edits to GameWindow.cs (+1 MeshManager accessor on WbMeshAdapter):

1. Field declarations (line 166-167): _envCellRenderer + _envCellFrustum.
2. Ctor init (line 1775-1778): construct WbFrustum + EnvCellRenderer,
   Initialize with the existing _meshShader (loaded from mesh_modern.vert/frag).
3. BuildInteriorEntitiesForStreaming (line 5444): _envCellRenderer.RegisterCell(...)
   replaces the cell-as-WorldEntity creation block. staticObjects is empty —
   cell stabs continue as WorldEntity records via the dispatcher's IndoorPass.
4. ApplyLoadedTerrainLocked (line 5885): _envCellRenderer.FinalizeLandblock(...)
   immediately after _buildingRegistries[lb.LandblockId] = ... — atomically
   commits the landblock's per-cell instance store.
5. RemoveLandblock callbacks (lines 1861 + 8955): mirror the existing
   _buildingRegistries.Remove(id) sites so EnvCellRenderer's storage clears
   in lockstep.
6. Dispose (line 10595): _envCellRenderer?.Dispose() after _wbDrawDispatcher.

Plan revision (vs original plan.md Task 6): we keep the static-object stab
WorldEntity hydration (lines 5440-5489) instead of deleting it — stabs need
WorldEntity records for interaction (clicking) and physics. EnvCellRenderer
receives empty staticObjects so it only renders cell geometry; stab rendering
continues unchanged through the dispatcher.

Build green. 23/23 EnvCellRenderer + WbFrustum + EnvCellSceneryInstance
tests pass. App.Tests baseline holds (82/82). Pre-existing Core.Tests
static-leak flakiness (8-19 failures, documented baseline) unrelated.

3e6f6ec858 chore(O-T7): code-review housekeeping after WB extraction
Five small post-cleanup items from T7 code review:

I1: Removed dead `datDir` parameter from WbMeshAdapter ctor (parameter
    was unused after _wbDats removal; ArgumentNullException.ThrowIfNull
    was misleading). Updated call sites in GameWindow.cs and
    WbMeshAdapterTests.cs.

I2: Updated stale GameWindow.cs comment that still described
    WbMeshAdapter as opening its own dat handles. Now reflects Phase O
    state: shared DatCollection via DatCollectionAdapter.

I3: Documented thread-safety contract on RenderStateCache (render-thread
    only — required for the mutable-static GL sentinel pattern).

M1: Added comment on IDatReaderWriter's write-path methods noting they
    are preserved for verbatim compatibility but unused in acdream.

M3: Added comment on Chorizite.Core PackageReference in Core.csproj
    explaining the previously-transitive dependency.

Also excluded SplitFormulaDivergenceTest.cs from the test build via
<Compile Remove>: this N.5b one-time data-collection test referenced
WorldBuilder.Shared types directly; after Phase O-T7 dropped that
project reference it no longer compiles. The sweep data it produced
already informed the N.5b Path-C decision and the file is retained
in the tree for historical reference.

Build green; tests green (1146 + 8 pre-existing failures baseline
maintained).

dc722e70bd feat(O-T7): drop WB project references; complete extraction
End of Phase O extraction. Final cleanup:

- Dropped <ProjectReference> entries to WorldBuilder.Shared and
  Chorizite.OpenGLSDLBackend from both AcDream.App.csproj and
  AcDream.Core.csproj.
- Added Chorizite.Core NuGet PackageReference to AcDream.Core.csproj
  (needed by Core.Rendering.Wb.TextureHelpers for TextureFormat enum;
  previously transitive through the WB project ref).
- Added BCnEncoder.Net.ImageSharp (1.1.2) + SixLabors.ImageSharp (3.1.12)
  as direct PackageReferences to AcDream.App.csproj — previously transitive
  via Chorizite.OpenGLSDLBackend project; used directly by ObjectMeshManager.

Item A (BaseObjectRenderManager static fields):
- Inlined CurrentAtlas/CurrentVAO/CurrentIBO into a new RenderStateCache.cs
  static class (AcDream.App.Rendering.Wb namespace) — the 4 consumers
  (ManagedGLIndexBuffer, ManagedGLTexture, ManagedGLTextureArray, ParticleBatcher)
  all reference RenderStateCache.* instead of BaseObjectRenderManager.*.
- Dropped using Chorizite.OpenGLSDLBackend.Lib from all 4 consumers and from
  WbDrawDispatcher (which had it only as a dead import).

Item B (ActiveParticleEmitter.ObjectLandblock):
- ObjectLandblock? erased to object?; WorldBuilder.Shared.Models.ObjectId? erased
  to ulong? — both fields are stored but never read by any consumer in our codebase.
- Dropped both WB using directives from ActiveParticleEmitter.cs.

Item C (IDatReaderWriter / IDatDatabase):
- Verbatim copy of both interfaces into IDatReaderWriter.cs in
  AcDream.App.Rendering.Wb namespace — DatCollectionAdapter and ObjectMeshManager
  already live in that namespace, so no using changes needed.
- Dropped using WorldBuilder.Shared.Services from DatCollectionAdapter.cs and
  ObjectMeshManager.cs.

Additional extractions required by the reference drop:
- GeometryUtils.cs: verbatim copy of WorldBuilder.Shared.Lib.GeometryUtils
  (float-precision overloads only; Vector3d double-precision overloads omitted —
  ObjectMeshManager uses only the float versions).
- Dropped using WorldBuilder.Shared.Lib from ObjectMeshManager.cs.

WbMeshAdapter.cs cleanup (spec O-D12):
- Deleted _wbDats (DefaultDatReaderWriter) field + ctor init + Dispose call.
- Deleted the [indoor-upload] NULL_RESULT diagnostic block (lines ~205-262) —
  its Phase 2 cell-resolution investigation is complete; its _wbDats.ResolveId
  dependency goes with this commit.
- Deleted _pendingEnvCellRequests field + isPendingEnvCell tracking in Tick().
- Simplified Tick() to a clean drain loop.

Deleted SplitFormulaDivergenceTest.cs — one-time N.5b data-collection sweep;
job done.

Verified acceptance criteria:
- Zero <ProjectReference> to WorldBuilder.* / Chorizite.OpenGLSDLBackend.* in any csproj.
- Zero 'using WorldBuilder.*' / 'using Chorizite.OpenGLSDLBackend.*' in src/.
- DefaultDatReaderWriter referenced in zero places in src/ (comments only).

Build green (0 warnings, 0 errors).
Tests: 1154 total (-1 from deleted SplitFormulaDivergenceTest), 1146 pass,
8 pre-existing failures (unchanged from baseline — physics/input tests
unrelated to this change).

a9ccc5acf5 fix(O-T4): thread-safety lock in DatDatabaseWrapper + drop unused using
Code-review findings on T4:

1. Added lock(_lock) around _db.TryGet and TryGetFileBytes in
   DatDatabaseWrapper, matching WB's DefaultDatDatabase pattern.
   ObjectMeshManager.PrepareMeshDataAsync runs on the thread pool, so
   concurrent dat access through the adapter must be serialized — our
   underlying DatCollection is not documented as thread-safe.

2. Removed unused `using WorldBuilder.Shared.Models;` from WbMeshAdapter.cs
   (its only purpose was TerrainEntry, which moved to AcDream.Core in T2).

Build green; tests green (1147 passing, 8 pre-existing failures baseline).

d16d8cd4e5 feat(O-T4): extract ObjectMeshManager + mesh pipeline closure into AcDream.App.Rendering.Wb
Phase O Task 4: extract the WB mesh pipeline (ObjectMeshManager + 7 support files)
from references/WorldBuilder into src/AcDream.App/Rendering/Wb/ and bridge dat I/O
through our DatCollection via a thin DatCollectionAdapter.

O-D7 adapter path taken: ObjectMeshManager has 26 _dats.X call sites (threshold 20),
so a DatCollectionAdapter : IDatReaderWriter is introduced rather than refactoring
ObjectMeshManager's internal dat access directly.

Files added (verbatim copies, namespace-only changes):
- ObjectMeshManager.cs — mesh pipeline hub; IDatReaderWriter field satisfied by adapter
- GlobalMeshBuffer.cs — single global VAO/VBO/IBO manager
- EdgeLineBuilder.cs — wireframe edge geometry from CellStruct polygons
- ModernRenderData.cs — ModernBatchData + LandblockMdiCommand structs
- TextureAtlasManager.cs — texture array grouping by (Width, Height, Format)
- ParticleBatcher.cs — GPU particle batching; T4 interim uses BaseObjectRenderManager
  static fields from Chorizite.OpenGLSDLBackend.Lib (stays until T7)
- ParticleEmitterRenderer.cs — per-emitter particle lifecycle + rendering
- ActiveParticleEmitter.cs — wrapper holding renderer + part index + local offset
- DatCollectionAdapter.cs — NEW: bridges DatCollection → IDatReaderWriter; implements
  ResolveId() via DatDatabase.TypeFromId + Tree.TryGetFile in HighRes→Portal→Language→Cell
  order matching DefaultDatReaderWriter; DatDatabaseWrapper wraps DatDatabase as IDatDatabase

WbMeshAdapter.cs changes (T4 Step 6):
- _graphicsDevice switched from Chorizite.OpenGLSDLBackend.OpenGLGraphicsDevice to
  extracted AcDream.App.Rendering.Wb.OpenGLGraphicsDevice
- ParticleBatcher = new ParticleBatcher(_graphicsDevice) restored (T3 had null! placeholder)
- ObjectMeshManager now constructed with new DatCollectionAdapter(dats) instead of _wbDats
- _wbDats field + its construction + disposal + [indoor-upload] NULL_RESULT diagnostic block
  left intact — T7 cleanup removes these once WorldBuilder project ref is dropped

EmbeddedResourceReader.cs: replaced assembly manifest lookup (wrong prefix for our assembly)
with disk-based lookup mapping "Shaders.Particle.vert" → Rendering/Shaders/wb_particle.vert;
consistent with all other acdream shaders.

wb_particle.vert / wb_particle.frag: WB particle shaders copied verbatim with wb_ prefix
to distinguish from acdream's own particle.vert.

OpenGLGraphicsDevice.cs: ParticleBatcher property type updated to extracted ParticleBatcher;
setter changed from private to internal so WbMeshAdapter (same assembly) can assign post-ctor.

Build: green (0 errors, 0 warnings in AcDream.App).
Tests: 1147+8 baseline maintained (8 pre-existing failures unchanged).

4cc38805b5 feat(O-T3): extract GL infrastructure to AcDream.App
Phase O Task 3 — verbatim-copy GL infra from Chorizite.OpenGLSDLBackend
into src/AcDream.App/Rendering/Wb/ (namespace AcDream.App.Rendering.Wb).

18 files extracted (all namespace-changed; no algorithm changes):
  OpenGLGraphicsDevice, ManagedGLTexture, ManagedGLTextureArray,
  ManagedGLVertexBuffer, ManagedGLIndexBuffer, ManagedGLVertexArray,
  ManagedGLFrameBuffer, ManagedGLUniformBuffer, GLSLShader, GLHelpers,
  GLStateScope, GpuMemoryTracker, SceneData, DebugRenderSettings,
  TextureParameters, TextureFormatExtensions, BufferUsageExtensions,
  EmbeddedResourceReader.

3 internals promoted to public (O-D9):
  EmbeddedResourceReader, TextureFormatExtensions, BufferUsageExtensions.

SixLabors.ImageSharp not reachable: TextureHelpers was placed in
AcDream.Core (no GL/ImageSharp dep); only the GL types went to App.

TextureHelpers.GetCompressedLayerSize added to AcDream.Core.Rendering.Wb
(was in Chorizite.OpenGLSDLBackend.Lib.TextureHelpers; uses
Chorizite.Core.Render.Enums.TextureFormat which Core gets transitively
via the still-present WB project refs).

T3/T4 boundary interims:
  - WbMeshAdapter._graphicsDevice stays Chorizite.OpenGLSDLBackend.OpenGLGraphicsDevice
    (T4 will swap it when ObjectMeshManager is extracted).
  - OpenGLGraphicsDevice.ParticleBatcher deferred to null! (T4 extracts
    ParticleBatcher alongside ObjectMeshManager; can't pass `this` of our
    new type to the WB-original ctor before T4).
  - ManagedGLTextureArray uses our TextureHelpers via explicit alias.
  - IUniformBuffer is in Chorizite.Core.dll under Chorizite.OpenGLSDLBackend
    namespace (unusual packaging); resolved via type alias.
  - AcDream.App.csproj gets explicit Chorizite.Core 0.0.18 PackageReference
    (IUniformBuffer + other Chorizite.Core types now used directly in App).

Build green. Test baseline 1147+8 maintained (1902 passing, 8 pre-existing
MotionInterpreterTests failures unrelated to T3).

b838eccb38 feat(wb): ConsoleErrorLogger + cause report — H1 swallowed-exception confirmed
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.

914638819d feat(wb): extend NULL_RESULT probe with reader-divergence diagnostic
Phase 2 Task 1's continuation logged [indoor-upload] NULL_RESULT
when WB's PrepareMeshDataAsync returned null. Extend the line to
include two cross-checks:

  ourCellDb.TryGet=<bool>    — acdream's DatCollection.Cell.TryGet<EnvCell>
  wbResolveId.Count=<int>    — WB's DefaultDatReaderWriter.ResolveId().Count

This narrows the cause among WB's null-return paths (ResolveId empty
vs TryGet<EnvCell> failure vs wrong type). Best-effort: both calls
wrapped in try/catch so diagnostic failures don't propagate.

Capture: 55 NULL_RESULTs across multiple landblocks ALL show
ourCellDb.TryGet=True + wbResolveId.Count=1. Both readers find the
cells in their indices, but WB's downstream PrepareMeshData logic
still returns null. Divergence is downstream of ResolveId.

011a5e43f4 feat(wb): surface WB-swallowed exceptions for EnvCell upload failures
Phase 1 confirmed 26/123 Holtburg cells silently fail in WB's
PrepareEnvCellMeshData / PrepareMeshData. WB's catch block at
ObjectMeshManager.cs:589 calls _logger.LogError(ex, ...) — but we
construct ObjectMeshManager with NullLogger, so the log is dropped.

Capture the Task from PrepareMeshDataAsync (previously fire-and-forget)
and attach a ContinueWith that, for EnvCell ids only when the probe
is on, logs:

  [indoor-upload] FAILED cellId=0x... exception=<Type>: <Message>
                          stack=[<top 3 frames>]
  [indoor-upload] NULL_RESULT cellId=0x...

Runs on ThreadPool — non-blocking. Zero cost when ProbeIndoorUploadEnabled
is off. AggregateException is unwrapped to InnerException for readability.
Stack truncated to top 3 frames.

Next: capture procedure, identify cause, target the fix.

1dd20ddd40 feat(wb): [indoor-upload] probe for EnvCell mesh requests + completions
Instruments WbMeshAdapter at two sites:
- IncrementRefCount: on first call for an EnvCell id (low 16 bits >=
  0x0100), tag the id in _pendingEnvCellRequests and log
  [indoor-upload] requested.
- Tick: when WB's StagedMeshData drains an ObjectMeshData whose
  ObjectId matches a pending EnvCell, log [indoor-upload] completed
  with parts count, EnvCellGeometry vertex count, and upload result.

Missing "completed" lines after "requested" identify hypothesis H1
(WB silently returns null from PrepareEnvCellMeshData).

943652dc97 phase(N.4) Tasks 22+23 fixup: trigger WB mesh loads + correct SurfaceId source
Task 26 visual verification surfaced three bugs in the dispatcher.
Two are fixed here; the third is documented as a remaining issue.

1. WB's IncrementRefCount only bumps a usage counter — it does NOT
   trigger mesh loading. Fixed in WbMeshAdapter.IncrementRefCount:
   call PrepareMeshDataAsync(id, isSetup: false) on first registration.
   Result auto-enqueues to _stagedMeshData (line 510 of WB's
   ObjectMeshManager) which Tick() drains onto the GPU.

2. EntitySpawnAdapter never registered per-instance entity meshes
   with WB. LandblockSpawnAdapter only registers atlas-tier
   (ServerGuid == 0); per-instance entities fell through. Fixed by
   adding optional IWbMeshAdapter constructor param + tracking unique
   GfxObj ids per server-guid for IncrementRefCount on OnCreate /
   DecrementRefCount on OnRemove.

3. WbDrawDispatcher.ResolveTexture used batch.SurfaceId which WB
   never populates (line 1746 of ObjectMeshManager only sets
   batch.Key — the TextureKey struct that has SurfaceId). Switched
   to batch.Key.SurfaceId.

Plus diagnostic counters (ACDREAM_WB_DIAG=1) for entity-seen / drawn
/ mesh-missing / draws-issued counts.

Status: with these fixes the dispatcher now issues real draw calls
(~16K/frame, validated via diagnostic). However visual verification
shows characters appear "exploded" (parts spaced too far apart) and
scenery (trees/rocks/fences/buildings) does not appear. Root cause
analysis pending — Adjustment 7 in the plan documents the deferred
work. Flag stays default-off; legacy renderer remains the
production path.

01cff4144f phase(N.4) Tasks 22+23: WbDrawDispatcher + surface metadata side-table
WbDrawDispatcher draws all entities through WB's ObjectRenderData
(VAO/VBO per GfxObj, per-batch IBO) using acdream's TextureCache for
texture resolution. Two-pass rendering (opaque+ClipMap, then
translucent) matching the existing InstancedMeshRenderer pattern.
Per-entity single-instance drawing for N.4 simplicity — true
instancing grouping deferred to N.6.

Atlas-tier entities: mesh from WB, texture from TextureCache via
batch SurfaceId. Per-instance-tier entities: AnimatedEntityState
drives part overrides + hidden-parts, palette/surface overrides
resolve through TextureCache's composite-key caches.

Side-table population (Task 23 folded in): WbMeshAdapter now takes
DatCollection and populates AcSurfaceMetadataTable on first
IncrementRefCount per GfxObj. The side-table provides TranslucencyKind
(critical for ClipMap alpha-test on vegetation) plus Luminosity,
Diffuse, SurfOpacity, NeedsUvRepeat, DisableFog for sky-pass and
lighting.

GameWindow wiring: when WbFoundationFlag is enabled, WbDrawDispatcher
draws everything and InstancedMeshRenderer is skipped. Flag-off path
is unchanged.

Matrix composition: restPose * animOverride * entityWorld, matching
the spec. Three MatrixCompositionTests verify the contract.

bf53cb4fce phase(N.4): WbMeshAdapter.Tick — drain WB pipeline queues per frame
Without this, ObjectMeshManager.StagedMeshData and
OpenGLGraphicsDevice._glThreadQueue grow unbounded as background
workers prep mesh data + queue GL actions. Visual stress test of
flag-on at radius 7 showed real FPS drop and rising frame latency
from this leak.

Tick() drains both queues:
1. _graphicsDevice.ProcessGLQueue() applies pending GL state.
2. Loop _meshManager.StagedMeshData.TryDequeue -> UploadMeshData
   to materialize VAO/VBO/IBO for each prepared mesh.

Wired into GameWindow's render loop before draw work begins.
No-op when adapter is uninitialized or disposed.

Pattern matches WB's reference ObjectRenderManagerBase.ProcessUploads
without the prioritization heuristics (we're not yet drawing the
results — Task 22's WbDrawDispatcher will add prioritization when
visual budget matters).

4ad7a985cf phase(N.4) Task 9: real WB pipeline bring-up + InstancedMeshRenderer routing
WbMeshAdapter now actually constructs the WB pipeline:
- OpenGLGraphicsDevice(gl, logger, DebugRenderSettings)
- DefaultDatReaderWriter(datDir) — opens its own file handles for now
  (memory cost ~50-100MB of duplicate index caches, acceptable for
  foundation work per plan Adjustment 1)
- ObjectMeshManager(graphicsDevice, dats, NullLogger)

InstancedMeshRenderer.EnsureUploaded routes through the adapter when
ACDREAM_USE_WB_FOUNDATION=1 is set; uses a WbManagedSentinel entry
in the local cache to mark "this GfxObj lives in WB now". CollectGroups
skips sentinel entries; both Draw passes skip them; Dispose skips them
(no GL resources to free — ObjectMeshManager owns those). Task 22's
WbDrawDispatcher will eventually draw WB-managed objects. With flag
off, behavior is byte-identical to before.

WbMeshAdapter constructor signature changed from (GL, DatCollection,
Logger) to (GL, string datDir, Logger). Updated tests to use
CreateUninitialized() for behavior tests and single null-GL guard test
for constructor validation. GameWindow updated to pass _datDir and to
wire _wbMeshAdapter into InstancedMeshRenderer.

AcDream.App.csproj gets direct ProjectReferences to WorldBuilder.Shared
and Chorizite.OpenGLSDLBackend — project refs are not transitive in
.NET, so AcDream.App must list them explicitly even though AcDream.Core
already references them.

1030c69b3c phase(N.4): WbMeshAdapter stub + IWbMeshAdapter interface
Stub adapter that validates constructor args and exposes the public
shape (IncrementRefCount / DecrementRefCount / GetRenderData / Dispose).
Real ObjectMeshManager init is deferred to Task 9 — for now methods
no-op so call sites can wire the adapter without behavioral effect.

IWbMeshAdapter interface enables mocking in subsequent tasks
(LandblockSpawnAdapter tests in Task 11 need it).
