Stage 0's measurement (previous commit) says the projection is redundant,
so AD-10 retires by deletion rather than by narrowing.
The measurement. With the sample forced to null at BOTH fork sites, from a
clean build:
* a remote running 30 ticks down a 31-degree walkable ramp produces a
BIT-IDENTICAL trajectory, position for position;
* on an 8.4-degree ramp the two differ by at most 2.8e-5 m in Z after 30
ticks (0.03 mm) and are identical in X and Y — float ordering noise
from projecting twice against the same plane rather than once;
* the whole AcDream.Runtime.Tests suite is unchanged.
That is what redundancy looks like, and the arithmetic explains it. The
boundary projection and Transition.AdjustOffset are the same operation
(v -= N * dot(v, N)) against the same plane, and the composition is
idempotent: a vector already on the plane has dot(v, N) == 0, so the
sweep's own projection is a no-op on an already-projected offset and the
full-strength projection on an unprojected one. Either alone produces the
same offset. On terrain a THIRD mechanism, ValidateWalkable's push-out,
re-seats the sphere on the plane every sub-step regardless.
Deleted:
* both RuntimeRemotePhysicsUpdater sample sites (the host and no-host
fork branches carried the block verbatim — the AP-22 shape, a row
naming one site where two exist);
* the terrainNormal parameter and projection block on
RemoteMotionCombiner.ComposeOffset;
* the same block on ComputeOffset, which has no production callers but
held a second copy of the divergence, so leaving it would have made
the row's retirement false;
* PhysicsEngine.SampleTerrainNormal, now callerless.
Removing the parameter rather than passing null is deliberate: it is what
makes a future one-site-only regression a compile error instead of a
silent half-fix.
Two tests went with it —
ComputeOffset_RootMotionFallback_SlopedTerrainNormal_ProjectsZOntoSlope and
its flat-ground twin. Both were weak on their own terms: they drove the
production-dead ComputeOffset and computed their expected values by
re-implementing the projection formula, so they could catch a wrong
MULTIPLY but never a wrong PLANE — which is exactly what the divergence
was. The surviving coverage is geometric and runs the production tick.
Three claims in the old row did not survive contact with the code and are
recorded in the retired row rather than quietly dropped: the justification
(remotes do run the sweep); the description of ComposeOffset's guard as
"interpolation-active" when the code reads `if (!interpolationOverwrote`;
and the roof clause, stale since Bug B gated the sample on OnWalkable —
a steep roof is OnWalkable == false, so the path never ran on #32's
geometry. The retail anchor is corrected too: pc:272296-272346 truncated
both the sliding-normal validity gate at the head and the entire safety
push-out block at the tail. The whole function is 0x0050a370,
pc:272271-272393.
This does not fix#32 and does not partially fix it. #32's remote half was
already closed at 204d0ae0. What deletion does improve is the case #32
never covered: a remote on a WALKABLE non-terrain surface — a bridge, a
dock, a gentle roof, a ramp inside a building — where the terrain sample
returned the plane of the ground far below and applied a wrong plane
rather than none. That surface now gets the body's own committed contact
plane, because that is the only projection left.
The planning contract this work executed is committed alongside as
docs/research/2026-08-06-ad10-contract.md.
Release build 0 errors. Complete solution suite 11,196 passed / 4 skipped
/ 0 failed against the ef976c6d baseline of 11,195 / 4 / 0 — reconciled
exactly as +3 new Runtime tests and -2 deleted Core tests.
Visual gate outstanding: G1 (the ~5 Hz staircase on rolling terrain) is
the veto criterion and runs first; then slope-descent smoothness, a
walkable non-terrain surface, the #32 roof scenario, and flat ground.

SpawnPlacementSettler committed settle.Position but discarded settle.CellId,
so a compressed first-gravity-frame settle that crossed a cell boundary left
the body's cell at the placement cell until some later resolve corrected it.
Now committed through the same guarded channel the per-tick resolve writeback
uses (RuntimeOrdinaryPhysicsUpdater): resolved cell when the transition
reports one, source cell otherwise, never a zeroed residency.
Retail anchor: CPhysicsObj::SetPositionInternal(CTransition const*)
0x00515330 commits both sphere_path.curr_pos.objcell_id and its frame,
including EnvCells.
WHERE THE DEFECT ACTUALLY BIT — #276's own framing is half wrong, and the
half it misses is the whole fix. PhysicsBody.Position's setter already
mirrors the world delta into the landblock-local frame and lets
LandDefs.AdjustToOutside recompute the 24 m cell index from it, so an
outdoor->outdoor settle already landed the right cell and dropping
settle.CellId cost nothing there. It cannot do that for an EnvCell: an
EnvCell id is not derivable from a position, so the mirror deliberately
PRESERVES it. settle.CellId is therefore the only carrier of a cell identity
across an indoor seam. The live defect is the issue's parenthetical
("outdoor/EnvCell seam, stacked EnvCells"), not its main clause — and the
change is consequently a no-op on the outdoor path that dominates
production, corrective only at the seam.
That finding is what made the test possible. The three existing settler
tests build bodies with NO CellPosition and pass identically with or without
this change — shipping against them would have repeated C5b finding D3, a
test that passed with its own change reverted. The new test seeds an EnvCell
id over plain outdoor terrain instead, so the stale-id preservation is the
discriminator and no EnvCell geometry fixture is needed.
Sabotage-verified: restoring `body.Position = settle.Position` fails exactly
the new test (1 failed / 4) and leaves the other three green — confirming
both that the new test discriminates and that the old ones never could.
Core suite 4,263 passed / 1 skipped / 0 failed, +1 for the new test.
Still open and unverified, deliberately not claimed closed: whether the
remote spawn-seed caller (LiveEntityNetworkUpdateController) hands in a body
that carries a CellPosition at all. CommitTransitionPosition early-returns on
a zero cell, so this fix is an inert no-op there and #276's remote half may
survive. The C3c local first-entry caller is confirmed — it passes
activation.Body.CellPosition.ObjCellId. Scoping detail in
docs/research/2026-08-06-276-remainder-scoping.md.

The user watched far terrain visibly assemble after portal space exits.
The reveal gate was NOT missing a hold — Slice E's hold mechanism is
correct and already in place. The hold was measuring the wrong domain:
it opened at a hardcoded 3x3 landblock neighbourhood (~192 m) while the
visible world extends to the fog end (~2,189 m at the shipped High
preset, inside a 2,304 m Far window). An 11.4:1 ratio.
Retail's equivalent ratio is 1:1 BY CONSTRUCTION. `LScape` owns one
`mid_width x mid_width` array of `CLandBlock*` (`LScape::SetMidRadius`
@0x00504C00, `LScape::update_block` @0x005063A0), `mid_radius` is
assigned directly from the user's `Render.LandscapeDrawDistance`
preference (`SmartBox::SetRegion` @0x004531F0; values
`Render_LandscapeDrawDistance_Values` @0x007CA988 = {3,5,8,11,15,25},
default 8 — both byte-verified against the PDB-paired 2013 binary), and
that same square is simultaneously the prefetched set
(`LScape::PreFetchCells` @0x00505660), the drawn set (`block_draw_list`
over the same array), and the set the simulation blocks on
(`CellManager::blocking_for_cells`). There is no retail configuration in
which the client streams farther than it gates, because there is only
one number.
So the fix derives rather than duplicates. Four coupled parts, which is
why this is one commit and not four — D1 without D2 hangs the client and
D2 without D1 is dead code:
D1 `WorldRevealReadinessBarrier` takes a live `Func<StreamingRevealWindow>`
and stops being static: outdoor requires `FarRadius`, indoor still 0
(retail's `CEnvCell::PreFetchCells` @0x0052D1E0 arm). Read per
evaluation, never captured — the radii are runtime mutable through
Settings, and retail's answer to a mid-hold radius change is to reset,
re-radius, and re-arm the blocking prefetch at the NEW value
(`SmartBox::set_mid_radius` @0x00453180). `OutdoorNeighborhoodRadius`
is deleted; there is no constant left to drift.
D2 `StreamingController.IsRenderNeighborhoodResident` becomes tiered,
because acdream's loaded landscape is: inside `NearRadius`,
`IsNearTier && IsRenderReady`; out to `FarRadius`, `IsRenderReady` only.
Without this the fix cannot work at all — nothing outside the Near ring
is ever promoted, so any radius above `NearRadius` was unsatisfiable and
would have held the reveal forever. Proof obligation P1 (a Far-tier
landblock genuinely satisfies `IsRenderReady`) is now a test driven
through the real `PublicationKind.Far` pipeline against a real
`LandblockSpawnAdapter`, not an inference.
D7 `RuntimeWorldTransitState.AcknowledgeDestinationReadiness` re-derived
`indoor ? 0 : 1` and failed `invalid-readiness-shape` on any other
value, so changing the radius alone would have looked like "the fix
hangs the client". It is now a SHAPE invariant (`indoor => 0`,
`outdoor => >= 1`). Runtime does not own the graphical host's streaming
configuration and must not learn it; plumbing App radii into Runtime to
preserve the strict equality is exactly the assert-a-mechanism-that-does-
not-exist failure C5b was built to stop. Both non-graphical producers
keep emitting their centre-ring token and stay legal, annotated in place.
D6 `PhysicsEngine.IsNeighborhoodTerrainResident` rebuilt a full-map
`HashSet` on every call, every frame of every hold. At radius 1 that was
invisible; at radius 12 (625 ring members) it violates Slice I1's
0 B/resolve standard. Now an engine-owned scratch set, cleared in place;
measured at 0 bytes over 1,000 warmed radius-12 queries.
Also: the destination reservation opens at exactly the gate's radius and
reopens on the same generation when the radius changes mid-hold (retail
has one square for both, and no concept of prioritising an inner ring
differently). Composite warmup deliberately stays `NearRadius`-scoped —
the composite domain is entity-scoped and Far builds carry no entities,
so widening it would walk the outer window to warm nothing.
`ACDREAM_PROBE_REVEAL_RADIUS` is a measurement probe in a diagnostic
owner (CLAUDE.md rule 5) so the connected route can be run A/B on one
binary; it is NOT a user-facing prefetch knob, since a low setting would
reintroduce the decoupling this slice exists to close.
Register: AD-2 amended with the derived window, the two-tier split, and
the four new retail anchors. AP-149 FILED for the residual this does not
close — the outer ring accepts terrain-only publication where retail
requires LandBlockInfo and every building EnvCell, so a distant building
can still pop in at Far-ring distances. Do not let a later closeout
claim parity.
Docs: `ACDREAM_STREAM_RADIUS`'s CLAUDE.md description was wrong on every
clause (the default is unset, not 2; it forces `NearRadius`; it is
silently discarded by any Settings save) — corrected, since that is the
file every session reads. `reference_two_tier_streaming.md` corrected in
four ways, including "Far tier = terrain only": Far also publishes
terrain COLLISION, which is precisely what makes this fix viable.
#280's issue text had the right conclusion from a wrong premise (it
names a view-distance setting acdream does not have) — corrected, and
the missing Viewing Distance option filed separately as #326, with #327
(DDD progress readout) and #328 (hardcoded 5000 f far plane vs retail's
byte-verified 4000) filed alongside.
Expect LONGER holds and the "In Portal Space - Please Wait..." cue on
recalls MORE often. That is convergence toward retail, not away from it:
retail emits the byte-identical string for the whole duration of a
blocked prefetch and polls at 5 s intervals. The failure condition is
non-convergence, not duration.
Gates: Release build 0 errors. Complete suite 11,178 passed / 4 skipped
/ 0 failed, against a re-measured 11,142 / 4 / 0 baseline at 9ee9c1a1 —
+36, reconciled exactly as 36 new tests (App +23, Runtime +10, Core +3),
zero deleted, zero newly skipped. Nine discriminating tests
sabotage-verified in both directions. The connected/visual gate is
batched into C5's matrix; its recipe, its three positive artifacts, and
its required recall leg are written into the campaign plan.

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).

User saw "[System] WeenieError 0x0504" on login after a PK Lite reversion.
0x0504 is YouAreNonPKAgain; only ~56 of 378 codes had strings, so the raw hex
fallback fired.
Retail's source is ClientCommunicationSystem::HandleFailureEvent @0x00571990 —
a switch with per-case literal UTF-16 strings, not a DAT string-table lookup, so
hardcoding them is retail-faithful.
The decomp could not be trusted for the text. Its dump of data_7d32c0 declares
[0x5f] and shows 95 characters ending mid-word at "...protection of the Lig".
The real string is 139 characters. The 0x5f is Binary Ninja's PREVIEW
TRUNCATION LENGTH, not the array size — worth remembering for the rest of the
switch, since a copy-paste from the dump would have shipped a truncated
sentence. Recovered by PE byte read (VA 0x007D32C0 -> RVA -> .rdata file
offset), cross-confirmed against the raw hex the pseudo-C carries immediately
after the preview.
Mapped 0x0504, 0x0505, 0x04EC, 0x04ED, each byte-verified and cited with its
case address. Retail's trailing newline is dropped deliberately (documented
in-comment): acdream renders one ChatEntry per system message where retail has a
single scrolling buffer. Adjacent codes are deliberately left unmapped with a
test pinning that 0x04EE still falls back to hex — a wrong message is worse than
a raw code.
Files #306 for the full port, with three findings that make it more than a
string table: the switch is SIX compiler-lowered blocks spanning 339 distinct
case values from 0x17 to 0x593, not one contiguous band; retail passes a colour
argument with three values in use (0 x162, 0x1a x113, 7 x59) and acdream's chat
has no colour concept; and HandleFailureEvent aborts an in-progress automatic
attack on 0x43/0x3f7/0x3e/0x23/0x36 — verified against the decomp, with the
nuance that 0x43 has no display case at all and is abort-only, so that one is a
pure gameplay gap.

10,904; +5 = the five new tests).

Selecting a PKLite player and attacking did nothing: with auto-target on it
retargeted to the nearest monster, with auto-target off it logged
"combat: attack ignored; no creature target found". Spells on the same target
worked, which was the clue.
Root cause: CombatTargetPolicy.IsHostileMonster:31-33 rejects any candidate
carrying BfPlayer BEFORE reaching ObjectIsAttackable, so the both-PKLite pool
match at SelectedObjectHealthPolicy.cs:70-71 was unreachable for players. Melee
and missile targeting never supported player targets at all — the gate is named
IsHostileMonster and does exactly what it says. Nobody could hit it until
69ba9486 made PK Lite reachable.
Retail uses ONE predicate for monsters and players, with no player exclusion:
ClientCombatSystem::ExecuteAttack @0x0056BB70 gates unconditionally on
ObjectIsAttackable @0x0056A600 (creature type, Free-PK short-circuit on either
side, then IsPlayer -> bothPK || bothPKLite, else BF_ATTACKABLE with pets
excluded). acdream already ported that predicate verbatim; it was simply
unreachable.
The fix SPLITS the two concerns rather than relaxing the shared predicate:
explicit-target admission routes through ObjectIsAttackable, while auto-target
ACQUISITION keeps the monster-only gate. That is required by register row
IA-19 — explicit product direction that Auto Target must never select NPCs,
players or pets. IA-19 is not overridden here; its own justification promises
"manual player-selection commands remain available", and that promise was never
implemented, so this makes the row true. Review confirmed no path lets
auto-acquisition select a player: every automatic Select is fed by a
FindClosest* filtered through IsHostileMonster.
Review also found a second site with the same bug, which the first pass froze in
place on my instruction: retail gates combat-camera tracking on the SAME
predicate as the attack. ClientCombatSystem::UpdateTargetTracking @0x0056A950
reads GetAttackTarget() then gates CameraSet::TrackTarget on ObjectIsAttackable.
Ours used the monster-only gate, so with ViewCombatTarget on by default the
attack would land while the camera refused to track the opponent — user-visible
in exactly the duel this fix enables. GetCombatCameraTargetPoint now uses the
wide predicate. IA-19 does not reach the camera: it performs no acquisition,
only presentation on an already-chosen target. The first pass had added a
source comment asserting IA-19 covered it; that comment and the matching text in
docs/ISSUES.md are corrected, since a wrong citation is how a real divergence
becomes invisible.
Depends on 9b1e6fc6 (#297): the both-PKLite arm needs the LOCAL player's own bit
to be live. Review confirmed both admission sites read ClientObjectTable on every
call, so this is not inert in production.
Newly reachable and now pinned: ObjectIsAttackable's pet-exclusion arm, which
CombatTargetPolicy rejected before it could ever run.
Follow-ups filed: #304 (SelectionInteractionController.GetSelectedOrClosestCombatTarget
has no production caller — one of the two widened call sites is dead code),
#305 (HeadlessGameplayOperations has the identical pre-existing bug, so the
graphical/headless hosts now diverge).
Gates: complete Release solution 10,904 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (baseline
10,900). Adversarial + retail-conformance review PASS after one FAIL round; the
predicate was re-verified branch-for-branch against 0x0056A600 since it goes
live here for the first time. Camera fix discrimination-verified by revert.
Connected acceptance NOT run — needs a live two-client PKLite session.

The user typed @pklite and then walked straight through other PKLite players.
Root cause: ClientObject.PublicWeenieBitfield was written exactly once, from the
0xF745 CreateObject parse, and never refreshed. ACE's only PK-change message is
PropertyInt.PlayerKillerStatus (134) over 0x02CE/0x02CD, which we parsed and
stored into Properties.Ints[134] but never translated back into the bitfield —
and ACE never re-sends a PublicWeenieDesc at all (EnqueueBroadcastUpdateObject
has zero live callers), so that property is the ONLY signal a client can learn
from. Both sides of the collision test read the frozen value, so
CollisionExemption's "4c. both PKLite -> collide" rule could never fire.
Retail's missing port: PublicWeenieDesc::SetPlayerKillerStatus @0x005AC7C0
rewrites _bitfield in place — PK(4) -> (b & 0xfddfffff) | 0x20; PKLite(0x40) ->
(b & 0xffdfffdf) | 0x2000000; Free(0x20) -> (b & 0xfdffffdf) | 0x200000; else
b &= 0xfddfffdf. Mutually exclusive, verified byte-for-byte, with input values
confirmed against retail's own PKStatusEnum (acclient.h:6412-6427), not just
ACE's. Driven from ACCWeenieObject::OnStatUpdated @0x0058DF20 case 0x86.
The fix rewrites the value at its source rather than patching consumers. Two
review rounds were needed because the first pass missed that there are TWO
snapshot stores: InboundPhysicsStateController keeps its own private _snapshots
dictionary, and every untimestamped-field merge (ApplyAcceptedObjDesc and
friends) reads `old` from THAT store, not from RuntimeEntityRecord.Snapshot.
Refreshing only the active record left the target-side shadow flags correct
until the remote's next equip or unequip — ACE broadcasts an ObjDesc on every
one — at which point the appearance path rebuilt the registration from the
frozen spawn and dropped the bit permanently. The regression test demanded by
review is what surfaced that; it is verified discriminating (reverting gives
Actual: 8 instead of 33554440).
Five stores now hold this value, kept coherent from one source by two
ObjectUpdated subscribers plus the appearance-rebuild path. The two shadow-flag
writers are the same invalidation applied at the two edges that can invalidate
it, not competing authorities — review enumerated every drift path and closed
each. That coherence invariant is new as of this commit and is recorded as
register row AP-134, with AP-133 as the precedent for filing a row when the
danger is a future writer rather than current behaviour.
Also corrects TS-23's retirement narrative, which claimed every mover-flags call
site read the mover's "real" PK bits from 2026-07-30. The bits existed but their
source was frozen, so that only became true here; the site enumeration also
missed RuntimeSetPositionMoverPreparation, a seventh site that decodes the
snapshot directly.
Unblocks #298 (melee/missile admission needs the local player's own PKLite bit).
Follow-ups filed: #300 (Properties.Ints[134] vs bitfield mirror gap), #301 (same
defect class for radar blip colour and radar behaviour), #302 (a pre-existing
PortalProjection allocation-assertion flake, 1 in 6, found while verifying this
gate), #303 (LiveEntityPvpBitfieldSync is App-resident but Runtime-owned-state).
Gates: complete Release solution 10,895 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (baseline
10,887 including #299). Adversarial + retail-conformance review PASS after one
FAIL round. Every new test discrimination-verified by reverting the fix.

CollisionExemption checked only the TARGET's IsImpenetrable, and the class doc
asserted "retail's pseudo-C only checks the target's IsImpenetrable(); acdream
follows retail" while blaming ACE for checking both. That was backwards: ACE was
retail-faithful and acdream was missing half the check.
Retail short-circuits on EITHER the mover's own state & IS_IMPENETRABLE (0x80)
OR the target's IsImpenetrable(); either alone exempts. Verified at the byte
level rather than from the decompiler's rendering — Binary Ninja shows the mover
test as `int16_t state_1 ... if (state_1 < 0)`, which reads like a 0x8000 test,
but decoding the PDB-paired binary at the mapped offset gives:
8b 43 04 mov eax,[ebx+4] ; mover object_info.state
f6 c4 01 test ah,1 ; 0x100 IsPlayer
84 c0 test al,al ; sign bit of AL = state & 0x80
78 3d js ... ; -> collide
`test al, al; js` is a byte-level sign test on AL, i.e. 0x80, not 0x8000.
Corroborated downstream in the same block (`test ah,8` = 0x800 IsPK,
`test ah,0x10` = 0x1000 IsPKLite) and by OBJECTINFO::init @0x0050cf30 setting
state |= 0x80 from the object's own IsImpenetrable().
Also corrected: ACCWeenieObject::IsImpenetrable @0x0058c8c0 returns
(_bitfield >> 0x15) & 1 — retail genuinely conflates BF_FREE_PKSTATUS with
"impenetrable", so acdream's FromPwdBitfield decode was already right.
Both retail arms set collide, so ordering between them is semantically free and
a misreading here could only ever produce spurious collisions, never a
walk-through.
Found while investigating #297; not symptom-causing on its own. No divergence
row: this retires a missing port rather than introducing a deviation, and
nothing in the register or the collision digest's DO-NOT-RETRY tables covers it.
Gates: complete Release solution 10,887 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed
(baseline 10,867/4/0). Adversarial + retail-conformance review PASS on this
change specifically. Both new tests discrimination-verified by reverting the
branch and confirming failure.

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;

Retail jump landings BOUNCE: the floor touch records both a contact plane
(grounding) AND a collision normal (collided_with_environment), and
handle_all_collisions reflects the unmodified impact velocity off it at
5% elasticity (v += -(v.n)(elasticity+1).n, DEFAULT_ELASTICITY 0.05
@0x007c6a7c). Our transition already recorded both facts; the bounce was
suppressed by the AD-25 adaptation stack in the per-tick commit: a
Velocity.Z<=0 landing gate (needed because the resolver glued ascending
movers to the ground) plus a landing Velocity.Z=0 hand-zero whose stated
purpose was making the reflect a no-op. Downhill glided instead of
bouncing, flat-ground landings had no pop, and uphill jumps flapped
between grounded/airborne against the animation machine.
Three retail mechanisms replace the stack:
- check_contact (0x0050f5b0) seeding in ResolveWithTransition: a body in
CONTACT seeds the transition's contact only while v.contactPlane.N <=
0.0002; moving away seeds the last-known plane alone (get_object_info
0x00511cc0). Ascending jumps therefore run contact-free (ballistic, no
glue) - the gate's reason-for-being is gone. The plane requirement is
strict: Contact-without-plane is unrepresentable in retail.
- SetPositionInternal-shaped commit (0x00515330, byte-read end-to-end,
velocity-sign-FREE): contact purely from the transition's contact
plane, HitGround on the airborne->walkable edge, HandleAllCollisions
with unmodified impact velocity. Whole commit gated on Ok &&
candidateMoved (retail pc:283657 skips SetPositionInternal entirely
when the candidate did not move) - a standing body's contact state is
never re-derived, which is what keeps rest bit-stable (AD-41 updated).
- Byte decodes: gate override state&0x800000=Sledding, zero branch
state&0x20000=Inelastic, reflect strictly dot<0 - our port already had
all three correct.
Settle: real landings (>=0.25 m/s) bounce and decay geometrically;
smaller impacts are consumed by retail's unconditional small-velocity
zero, so standing never micro-bounces. Re-baselines documented in place:
landing-survival pin measures decay post-settle; LiveCompare_Tick0/376
pin the new IsOnGround=false on zero-move ticks (captured true was the
retired seed echo; tick 376's captured body carries an 11.8 m/s grounded
velocity from the deleted get_state_velocity-overwrite era); de-overlap
fixture now carries the plane real grounded bodies always have. New
pins: LandingBounceSeedingTests (ascent no-seed, rest keeps contact,
strict plane, slope 5% reversal + tangential preservation, Sledding
override).

Capture bisect (docs/research/2026-07-30-265-capture-bisect.md, mined
from artifacts/matrix-session2-resolve.jsonl records 3415-3434) traced
#265's lost roof slides / permanent landing freeze and #166's missing
downhill sled to a pre-existing (2026-07-20, ten days before Campaign P
- not a regression) mechanism in PlayerMovementController.cs's grounded
quantum block: it hand-zeroed Velocity.X/Y to exactly zero every tick
once OnWalkable whenever animation root motion drives the walk (the
production graphical local-player path), discarding any residual
horizontal momentum a fall left on the body before calc_friction
(AP-7/AD-55, already correctly ported) or PhysicsBody.
UpdatePhysicsInternal's Euler integrator ever got a chance to act on it.
Two changes:
1. PhysicsEngine.cs now syncs body.GroundNormal (the vector
calc_friction dots velocity against, per retail
CPhysicsObj::calc_friction 0x0050ee70's `contact_plane.Normal` read)
from the committed ContactPlane.Normal at the same commit point that
already publishes ContactPlane. GroundNormal had zero production
writers before this and silently defaulted to Vector3.UnitZ forever
- even surviving velocity would have been tested against a fake
flat-ground normal on any real slope. Core-level, so player, remote,
ordinary, and projectile movers all benefit uniformly.
2. PlayerMovementController.cs's grounded block no longer reconstructs
Velocity at all for the animation-root-motion case (only the
headless/test-controller get_state_velocity fallback still does,
unchanged). Root motion continues to fully own commanded locomotion;
this only stops destroying whatever Velocity already holds, letting
it compose with root motion through the same ResolveWithTransition
sweep exactly as retail's CPhysicsObj::UpdatePositionInternal
composes both channels.
Symptom (a), the uphill-jump bounce, traces to a SEPARATE, byte-exact
(re-verified against acclient_2013_pseudo_c.txt:282647-282760),
already-closed retail mechanism (AD-25, PhysicsObjUpdate.
HandleAllCollisions's shouldReflect gate) - confirmed orthogonal to this
fix, not addressed here (see the research doc's as-fixed addendum §9.5).
Issue265SteepSlopeCaptureBisectTests.cs gains a composed harness
(ReplayRealRoofLandingComposed) mirroring PlayerMovementController.cs's
per-tick composition against Core types only, proving: the old model
reproduces the mined freeze exactly; the new model survives the landing
and slides continuously (the real captured geometry glides at constant
velocity per retail's own dot>=0.25 early-return - AP-7); a synthetic
dot<0.25 case shows genuine exponential decay via calc_friction; and a
synthetic uphill-bounce case proves the fix changes nothing about
HandleAllCollisions's reflection decision.

Raw byte decode of MovementSystem::GetRunRate (0x006b0950, PDB-paired
binary): fild skill; fcom [800f]; fnstsw; test ah, 0x44; jp general —
the C2/C3 parity idiom whose 18/4 fall-through executes ONLY at
skill == 800 exactly. ACE read this as >= 800 ('max run speed?') and
Campaign P P1 inherited that misread when BN dropped the arithmetic,
flat-lining every maxed character at 4.5 (retail-true ~3.70, +21%) and
erasing the vitae differential (both 10200 and 15225 sat above 800).
The [stat-chain] live capture proved the enchant chain correct end to
end (vitae 0.67 -> eff run 10200 -> controller), isolating the formula.
General path byte-verified: (loadMod*(skill/(skill+200)*11)+4)/scaling/4.
InqMaxRunRate's skill=9999 probe gets ~3.6961, not 4.5.
Golden tests pin the 799/800/801 straddle and the maxed-skill vitae

Retail CACQualities::EnchantAttribute (0x00594570), EnchantAttribute2nd
(0x00594670, already ported for #6), and EnchantSkill (0x005947b0) are the
three enchantment-composition functions the Character window's Attributes
and Skills tabs depend on. Primary attributes never reference the vitae
singleton in retail (only Attribute2nd/Skill do) — confirmed directly from
the decompiled function bodies, not assumed.
EnchantmentMath.GetMod gains requiredType/includeVitae parameters (default
to the prior behavior) so a numeric StatMod key collision across domains
(e.g. key=1 is both Strength and MaxHealth) can't leak a buff into the
wrong computation. Spellbook.GetAttributeMod/GetSkillMod and
LocalPlayerState.GetEffectiveAttribute/GetEffectiveSkill/
GetSkillVitaeModifier wire the retail chain through to the panel.
CharacterSheetProvider now reports the effective value as the main number
and CharacterSkill.CurrentLevel is no longer an alias of BaseLevel (this
also activates the previously-dead SkillValueColor buffed/debuffed row
coloring). CharacterStatController's footer-title parenthetical is cited
from gmAttributeUI::DisplaySelectionFooter_Attribute (0x0049d280) and
gmSkillUI::DisplaySelectionFooter_Trained (0x0049b860) +
SkillInfoRegion::GetVitaeModifier (0x004f0fa0): skills show up to two
segments (vitae's own contribution, then the buff-only residual), while
vitae-immune attributes show at most one; no parenthetical when the delta
is zero. The panel now refreshes on Spellbook.EnchantmentsChanged, not only
raw property/attribute updates.
Core goldens cover the user-reported 33% vitae example (303->203, "(-100)"
exactly), buff+vitae composition, and the attribute vitae-immunity finding.
Provider/controller tests cover the full row-click -> footer-title path and
live refresh. Full solution suite passes with zero failures.

events (records 3153/3159 and 3433/3434): a high-speed fall lands on a
moderate roof slope (normal.Z=0.857, ABOVE PhysicsGlobals.FloorZ — walkable
by threshold), and the very next tick shows Velocity forced to exactly

Per docs/research/2026-07-30-ts4-116-oracle-plan.md Addendum (byte-proven
2026-07-30). Raw bytes of CPhysicsObj::calc_friction @ 0x0050ee70's

de d9 fcompp
confirm a genuine fcos opcode over a real 10-degrees-in-radians double
literal -- not a BN misdecompile of a raw float load. Retail truly
computes cos(10 deg) ~ 0.9848078 at runtime; ACE's 0.99999536f equals
cos(0.1745 DEGREES) -- the same radian literal evaluated in degree mode,
a proven ACE porting error carried into this port provisionally.
PhysicsBody.calc_friction's Sledding near-flat override now compares
GroundNormal.Z > 0.98480775f (cos 10 deg). Feel impact: retail's 0.2f
fast-sled friction override engages on any ground within 10 degrees of
flat; the old constant engaged only within ~0.175 degrees (never, in
practice).
Tests: two new boundary pins
(calc_friction_sledding_fast_override_engages_at_5_degrees_from_flat /
..._does_not_engage_at_15_degrees_from_flat) construct a tilted
GroundNormal with velocity purely orthogonal to the tilt plane (dot=0
exactly, isolating the Sledding-band friction value from the outer 0.25f
gate and the normal-removal step) and assert the exact pow(1-friction, dt)
decay on each side of the new 10-degree boundary.

Per docs/research/2026-07-30-ts4-116-oracle-plan.md §3, §3.3 step 1.
Test-only change with zero production code in this commit: TS-4's
retirement (5e2be19b, the previous commit) is what actually unblocks
this test's routing.
The plan's confirming instrumentation (probes added in 5e2be19b: which
BSPQuery.cs path fires, whether Path 4's FindWalkableInternal finds a
walkable candidate) traced D4's tall-vertical-wall scenario: Path 6 fires
(SetCollide, no reposition, Adjusted) -> the retry routes to Path 4
(find_walkable), which finds NO candidate for this sheer wall
(changed=false, confirmed) -> Path 4 returns OK -> TransitionalInsert's
Phase 3 sp.Collide block runs (reachable now that Phase 1/2 both return
OK): ContactPlaneValid is false (first airborne contact) so the reset
branch fires, LastKnownContactPlaneValid is false too (first frame), so
SetCollisionNormal(sp.StepUpNormal) runs and the function returns
Collided -- a hard stop, in place, with the wall's real normal. This
exactly reproduces the test's original (pre-Skip) expectation, confirming
the oracle plan's §3.1/§3.2 structural finding without a live cdb trace.

Per docs/research/2026-07-30-ts4-116-oracle-plan.md §1, §4 item 2 (the
decisive TS-4 confirming run). Retail's BSP layer has NO steepness test at
all (acclient_2013_pseudo_c.txt:323783-323821, 0x0053a793) — every airborne
hit, steep or shallow, falls through to the same unconditional
`SetCollide` + `Adjusted`. The L.4 slide-tangent shortcut (worldNormal.Z <
FloorZ -> project-and-Slid, with its own SetSlidingNormal write) is deleted
from both BSPQuery.cs's and FlatBspQuery.cs's Path 6 sphere0 branch.
Fixing FlatBspQuery.cs (the flat/indexed engine Slice I6/I7 made
production-authoritative) was necessary in this same commit: it carried an
exact structural duplicate of the shortcut, caught by
FlatBspQueryDifferentialTests.InstalledDat_LargeRandomizedSweep_HasZeroBitMismatch
(graph=Adjusted vs flat=Slid) once the graph side was fixed alone. Its
sphere1 branch is also brought in line with the #116 shape-1 fix landed
in db2889af (direct Collided + SetCollisionNormal instead of the deferred
SetCollide/shortcut treatment) — that parity gap existed since shape-1's
commit only touched BSPQuery.cs and the randomized differential sweep
didn't happen to exercise the narrow foot-clear/head-hit case until this
session's broader change surfaced it.
DECISIVE CONFIRMING RUN (Ts4SteepRoofWedgeCaptureTests, per the plan's own
required test-first order): added
FallOntoSteepSlope_WithHorizontalVelocity_NeverFreezesForOverHalfASecond_AndReachesFloor
— the same steep-roof drop as the existing pure-vertical fixture, but with
a small residual horizontal velocity (vx=-0.3 m/s), matching the realistic
live-play input (WASD, jump momentum) that validated the shortcut on
2026-04-30. With the shortcut removed, this variant converges cleanly to
the flat floor with zero freeze. The pure-vertical fixture, run
shortcut-removed, DOES still freeze — per the oracle plan's root-cause
trace (§1.2 Step E), this is the DEGENERATE case: AdjustOffset's crease
projection (Cross(ContactPlane.Normal, SlidingNormal)) is mathematically
orthogonal to a purely-Z gravity offset, crushing it to zero every tick
before TransitionalInsert can run again — present identically in the raw
decomp, ACE's port, and this port. Renamed and re-asserted as a PINNED
known-degenerate test
(FallOntoSteepSlope_PureVertical_FreezesAtDegenerateFixedPoint_RetailParity)
rather than treated as a bug. Filed as register row AD-56.
BSPStepUpTests.C3_Path6_AirborneMoverHitsSteepSlope_ReturnsSlid pinned the
OLD shortcut's Slid-no-Collide behavior directly; renamed to
...ReturnsAdjustedAndSetsCollide and corrected to the retail-faithful
Adjusted/Collide=true outcome.

Deliberately omits the vestigial player-vs-remote branch the disassembly

start mapping is outdoor 5/indoor 10, the opposite of the binary - the

Campaign P Slice P4 Opus review verdict: FIX-FIRST. RestrictionObjPrevalenceInspectionTests
(commit 3b5e0992) found 103,766 of 729,888 installed EnvCells (1,293 landblocks -
the whole housing estate) carry a baked RestrictionObj. The AP-71 gate's
unconditional fail-closed default (CanMoveInto unmodeled) would have locked
every apartment/cottage/villa interior for every player, including its own
owner - a live regression, not the "inert in dev content" the original
register row assumed.
Ports ACCWeenieObject::CanMoveInto (0x0058da40, pc:407982-408056) and
RestrictionDB::IsAllowedIn (0x005ae8f0, pc:444493-444516) verbatim into
ObjectInfo.CheckEntryRestrictions:
- owner_iid == 0 or == mover's own guid -> admit (open/owner)
- no RestrictionDB (retail _db == 0, i.e. never authored or not yet
received) -> admit
- present RestrictionDB -> IsAllowedIn: open-to-public flag, OR mover
shares the house's allegiance monarch, OR mover's own guid is a
guest-table member
- unresolved restriction object -> fails CLOSED, exactly retail's own
fallback when GetObjectA can't resolve it (pc:704-716)
Wire feed (Core.Net):
- CreateObject.cs: HouseOwner (WeenieHeaderFlag 0x02000000), HouseRestrictions
(0x04000000), and Monarch (0x40) PWD-tail fields were parsed-and-skipped;
now captured. Also fixes the HouseRestrictions PHashTable header
misconception: the wire is ONE packed u32 (low 24 bits = entry count),
not a separate count(u16)+numBuckets(u16) pair - verified against
Chorizite's RestrictionDB.generated.cs. The old skip's byte-count
happened to match for realistic guest-list sizes, but a future
numBuckets value >255 would have corrupted the parse; now correct
regardless.
- GameEvents.cs/GameEventWiring.cs: new House_UpdateRestrictions (0x0248)
parser + wiring - retail's live guest-list refresh, whole-unit replace.
No-ops if the house object hasn't arrived via CreateObject yet.
- ClientObject/WeenieData/ClientObjectTable: HouseOwnerId, MonarchId,
Restrictions (new HouseRestrictionRecord) fields + merge-preserving
Ingest + targeted UpdateHouseRestrictions.
Physics wiring:
- PhysicsEngine gains an Objects (ClientObjectTable?) property, mirroring
the existing DataCache pattern - acdream's GetObjectA equivalent, used
ONLY by the entry-restriction gate.
- RuntimeEntityObjectLifetime wires Physics.Engine.Objects = Objects in
all three constructors, right alongside the table's own construction -
the same canonical table every other subsystem borrows from, never a
second one. This is the production fix: without it the gate still fails
closed on every restricted cell (unresolvable object), so the wiring is
load-bearing, not cosmetic.
Register: AP-129 narrowed (not retired) to the genuine remaining residual -
House_UpdateRestrictions' Sequence byte isn't used for staleness/reordering
rejection (low-probability, self-correcting), and outdoor CLandCell
restriction (a separate DAT structure) remains unported and unaffected by
this fix.
Tests: 15 new/updated in Ap71EntryRestrictionGateTests.cs (resolved-unowned
admits, owner admits, present-list-excluded blocks, present-list-included
admits, open-to-public admits, shared-allegiance-monarch admits, unresolved

PhysicsEngine.Objects-wired scenarios); 2 new CreateObject parser tests +

Campaign P Slice P4 item 2. TerrainSurface.SampleWaterDepth now returns 0.1
(was collapsed to 0) for a partially-water cell's dry corner, matching
retail's ObjCell.get_water_depth / calc_water_depth (via ACE's unambiguous
C# port). ValidateWalkable's formula was already byte-for-byte verbatim
(ACE ObjectInfo.ValidateWalkable line 124); only the constant was collapsed.
The old collapse's justification ("0.1 destabilizes the feet-exactly-on-plane
contact-touch check because dist > EPSILON skips SetContactPlane that tick")
is structurally true of retail too - traced and confirmed this slice: in ALL
THREE implementations (retail, ACE, acdream) a skipped touch-reassertion is
NOT a fall, because Contact/OnWalkable are STICKY -
PhysicsEngine.ResolveWithTransition's onGround computation ORs the fresh
per-call ContactPlaneValid with the seeded, persistent
PhysicsBody.TransientState.OnWalkable bit (itself written back by the
caller's own sticky TransientState). PhysicsEngine.SampleTerrainWalkable's
isWater = waterDepth >= 0.45f threshold means the restore does not flip the
dry corner's water classification (0.1 still < 0.45) - only the sink-in
depth changes. Full Core.Tests suite green (4038/2 skips, up from 4026)
proves the sticky-bit argument held in practice.
WATER_CONTACT_TS (TransientStateFlags.WaterContact, declared but never
written) is now mirrored alongside CONTACT_TS/ON_WALKABLE_TS at every commit
point that writes them: PhysicsObjUpdate.ApplySetPositionContact (projectiles
+ remote teleport), PhysicsObjUpdate.CommitSetPositionTransition (remote
teleport placement), and PhysicsEngine's per-resolve body-state commit (local
player + remote dead-reckoning + ordinary movers via ResolveWithTransition -
the actual SetPositionInternal-equivalent path). No signature changes needed:
body.ContactPlaneIsWater is already fresh by the time each function runs.
CollisionShadowVerifier audit: no change needed. It diffs graph-vs-flat BSP
traversal outcomes (ObjectInfo/CollisionInfo/SpherePath fields already
including ContactPlaneIsWater); it never touches PhysicsBody.TransientState,
and the water-depth constant is computed identically upstream of both
traversal modes, so it cannot introduce a new graph/flat divergence.
Filed #264 for the three items research explicitly left open (none block
this port): no confirmed retail consumer of WATER_CONTACT_TS was found (an
xref scan wasn't attempted - bitmask reads aren't text-greppable); the
CLandCell ENTIRELY_WATER ethereal/swim exemption from terrain collision was
not cross-checked; jump-in-water/swim-animation effects were not
investigated (out of physics/collision scope).
Conformance: Ap10WaterSemanticsTests covers SampleWaterDepth golden values
(NotWater/EntirelyWater/PartiallyWater wet+dry corners), the isWater
threshold non-flip, WaterContact mirroring in both PhysicsObjUpdate
functions, and two settle-to-rest end-to-end PhysicsEngine.ResolveWithTransition
scenarios (water: sinks exactly waterDepth below the plane and sets
WaterContact; dry: rests exactly on the plane and clears any stale
WaterContact bit).
Register: retired AP-10 (92 active AP rows, down from 93).

Campaign P Slice P4 item 1. Ports retail's CObjCell::check_entry_restrictions
(pc:308873-308912, 0x0052b6d0), called FIRST by CEnvCell::find_env_collisions
(pc:309576) before any BSP work, as ObjectInfo.CheckEntryRestrictions wired at
the top of the indoor branch of Transition.FindEnvCollisions.
Resolves the research doc's open question on restriction_obj's source: the
ACE cross-check (references/ACE/Source/ACE.DatLoader/FileTypes/EnvCell.cs:32,
66-67) plus an independent reflection probe of Chorizite.DatReaderWriter
2.1.7's own EnvCell.RestrictionObj field confirm it is a plain DAT-baked
uint32 gated by EnvCellFlags.HasRestrictionObj (0x8) - not a live wire
override. The BN pseudo-C's "count for an array alloc" read at the same
UnPack offset was the mis-attributed field-name collision
feedback_bn_decomp_field_names warned about.
CellPhysics.RestrictionObj is wired from envCell.RestrictionObj in BOTH the
dev/graph-fixture path (CacheCellStruct) and the production/prepared path
(CachePreparedCellStruct) - the latter already receives a live parsed
envCell for Position/EnvironmentId, so no bake-format change was needed.
The mover's own CanBypassMoveRestrictions (BF_ADMIN 0x100000 AND
BF_IMMUNE_CELL_RESTRICTIONS 0x400000, acclient.h:6452-6454) is decoded via
the same PWD-bitfield pipeline TS-23 established for PK/PKLite/Impenetrable
(EntityCollisionFlags -> ToMoverState -> ObjectInfoState moverFlags).
Remaining gap (filed as AP-129, replacing the retired AP-71 row): CanMoveInto
(house owner IID + guest/ban list) is unmodeled, so a genuinely restricted
cell fails CLOSED for everyone, not just intruders - matching retail's own
fallback when the restriction weenie can't be resolved (pc:704-716). Outdoor
CLandCell restriction (LandblockInfo.RestrictionTables, a separate DAT
structure) is explicitly out of scope for this gate.
Conformance: Ap71EntryRestrictionGateTests covers the pure gate logic
(NPC bypass, admin bypass, fail-closed, ordinary-cell no-op), the PWD-bitfield
two-bit AND decode, and three end-to-end Transition.FindEnvCollisions
scenarios proving zero behavior change for ordinary cells.

Campaign P Slice P3 item 4. Per the plan's explicit instruction, this
is diagnose-only: the research's candidate (a)/(b) mechanisms did not
confirm, so no fix lands here.
Built the dat-free/dat-backed fixtures the plan asked for (no live
client) to test the two mechanisms a physics fixture CAN discriminate:
- (b) ruled out by code reading: RuntimeRemotePhysicsUpdater.Tick's
resolve gate reads RuntimeEntityRecord.FullCellId live. Every
FullCellId = 0 write site (TryApplyPickup, CommitAcceptedParentCellless,
CommitWithdrawal in RuntimeEntityObjectLifetime.cs) is a pickup/
parent-attach/delete path, never reachable for a live, freely moving
remote mid-session. The "one-frame grace" is genuinely first-spawn-only.
- (a) tested directly and does not reproduce, on two independent
geometries: InterpolationManager's unclamped stall-fail "tail delta"
snap (node_fail_counter > 3) can hand ResolveWithTransition an
arbitrarily large single-tick targetPos. New fixture tests replace a
proven small-step sweep (many 0.08-0.10 m ticks) with ONE resolve call
spanning the entire distance, against both a synthetic creature sphere
and the real Holtburg door BSP slab (Setup 0x020019FF/GfxObj
0x010044B5, the existing door-apparatus dat fixture) already used by
DoorCollisionApparatusTests. Both stop at the identical surface
distance the small-step tests pin, with a valid collision normal --
the sweep is not distance-limited and does not tunnel on a large
single-tick delta.
Candidate (c) -- render/interpolation presentation lag on the App side --
is the remaining hypothesis and is out of scope for a physics-fixture
pass (it's a claim about what gets drawn relative to the committed
PhysicsBody.Position, not something a Core fixture observes). #165
stays OPEN with (a)/(b) struck from the candidate list by the evidence
above and (c) named as the next concrete step (an App-layer render-vs-
physics-position diff, or a fresh live ACDREAM_PROBE_RESOLVE capture).
New tests: Issue165RemoteWallPenetrationDiagnosticTests (dat-free,
3 tests) and DoorCollisionApparatusTests.
Apparatus_SingleLargeTickJump_DeadCenter_StillBlocksOnBSP (dat-backed,
1 test, skips gracefully without the local dat directory).
dotnet build + dotnet test (Core.Tests 4012/2 skip, Runtime.Tests
425/0) green.
