Every [indoor-bsp] probe line reports result=OK poly=n/a, meaning
BSPQuery.FindCollisions never records a hit polygon. Four hypotheses:
(a) PhysicsPolygons.Count == 0 for all cached EnvCells (empty data),
(b) BSP leaf Polygons IDs don't match PhysicsPolygons dict keys,
(c) ResolvePolygons filters out all polygons (vertex lookups fail or
degenerate normals), or (d) sphere is too far from BSP leaf bounds.
Format analysis rules out (b): retail BSPLEAF::PackLeaf writes
poly_id (not array index) into the BSP leaf ushort list; CPolygon::Pack
writes poly_id as first field; DatReaderWriter reads it as dictionary
key. ACE DatLoader does the same. Keys are consistent end-to-end.
Add ProbeCellCacheEnabled (ACDREAM_PROBE_CELL_CACHE=1) to
PhysicsDiagnostics and a [cell-cache] log line at the end of
CacheCellStruct. One line per cached EnvCell:
[cell-cache] envCellId=0x... physicsPolyCount=N resolvedCount=M
bspRootPolyCount=K bspRootHasChildren=true|false
physicsPolyCount=0 -> hypothesis (a).
resolvedCount < physicsPolyCount -> hypothesis (c).
Non-zero counts + bspRootPolyCount=0 + bspRootHasChildren=true ->
expected (internal node, leaves hold poly refs); then investigate (d).
Non-zero counts + bspRootPolyCount=0 + bspRootHasChildren=false ->
leaf with empty Polygons list, deeper investigation needed.
Cross-referencing cell-cache lines with indoor-bsp lines (same
envCellId) will pin the root cause in the next launch.

Adds the [indoor-bsp] probe + ProbeIndoorBspEnabled toggle for the
Indoor walking Phase 1 BSP-cluster investigation. Mirrors the existing
[resolve] / [cell-transit] / [indoor-*] pattern: one log line per
BSPQuery.FindCollisions call from FindEnvCollisions' cell branch,
capturing cell id, sphere local-pos, result TransitionState, and the
hit poly's normal + side-type via the LastBspHitPoly side-channel
(already wired for ProbeBuildingEnabled, now also fires for the indoor
flag).
Toggle via ACDREAM_PROBE_INDOOR_BSP=1 env var or DebugPanel checkbox.
Zero-cost when off.
Predecessor for the three fix commits that will close ISSUES.md
#84/#85/#86 after the capture session.

First application of CLAUDE.md's new Code Structure Rules §5
("Runtime probes belong in diagnostic owner classes"). Migrates the
four ACDREAM_DUMP_STEEP_ROOF call-site env reads into a single
PhysicsDiagnostics.DumpSteepRoofEnabled property initialized from the
env var at type init, with a runtime setter that follows the existing
ProbeResolveEnabled / ProbeCellEnabled / ProbeBuildingEnabled pattern.
Sites migrated:
- AcDream.Core/Physics/PhysicsEngine.cs:637 (KILL-VELOCITY-APPLIED log)
- AcDream.Core/Physics/TransitionTypes.cs:718 (PHASE3-RESET log)
- AcDream.App/Input/PlayerMovementController.cs:1117 (FRAME log)
- AcDream.App/Input/PlayerMovementController.cs:1199 (per-frame bounce log)
Behavior-preservation only. ACDREAM_DUMP_STEEP_ROOF=1 still produces
identical [steep-roof] log output. The class-comment in
PhysicsDiagnostics already anticipated this migration
("Future slices may fold the older ACDREAM_DUMP_* env vars into this
class for unified runtime toggling").
Not yet wired to a DebugVM checkbox — runtime toggling is available
via the property setter for future debugging sessions, but exposing
it on the panel is a 30-second future cut, not in scope here.
Build: green.
Tests: same pass/fail profile as before this commit (8 pre-existing
Core failures unrelated to physics-diagnostics; App.Tests / Core.Net.Tests
/ UI.Abstractions.Tests all green).

Two retail divergences fixed from the 2026-05-16 faithfulness audit
(Commit A of the plan at docs/superpowers/plans/2026-05-16-retail-faithfulness-fixes.md).
1. Rotation rate ignored HoldKey.Run. Retail's CMotionInterp::
apply_run_to_command (decomp 0x00527be0 line 305098) multiplies
turn_speed by run_turn_factor (1.5, PDB-named symbol at 0x007c8914)
when input is TurnRight/TurnLeft under HoldKey.Run. Effective
running rotation is 50% faster (~135°/s vs walking ~90°/s).
Our keyboard A/D and ApplyAutoWalkOverlay used a fixed walking
rate.
New: RemoteMoveToDriver.TurnRateFor(running) helper. Keyboard
path passes input.Run; auto-walk overlay passes
_autoWalkInitiallyRunning. The walking-rate base
(BaseTurnRateRadPerSec = π/2) is unchanged; TurnRateRadPerSec
constant is preserved as the walking-rate alias for callers
that don't have run/walk state (NPC remotes).
2. IsUseableTarget gated on `useability & USEABLE_REMOTE (0x20)`,
which was stricter than retail. Per ItemUses::IsUseable
(acclient_2013_pseudo_c.txt:256455) cross-referenced with 4
call sites, retail's IsUseable() semantic is `_useability != 0`.
But visually retail's USEABLE_NO (1) entities don't approach
either, because ACE never broadcasts MovementType=6 for them.
Our client installs a speculative auto-walk BEFORE the server
responds, so we'd visibly approach + face signs before the
wire packet was rejected.
Pragmatic fix: block USEABLE_UNDEF (0) AND USEABLE_NO (1) in
IsUseableTarget — slightly stricter than retail's
IsUseable but matches retail's user-visible behaviour
("R on sign does nothing"). Documented in the doc-comment so
a future implementer knows the gap.
3. New IsPickupableTarget gate for F-key path — requires
USEABLE_REMOTE (0x20) bit. Null-useability fallback for
BF_CORPSE + small-item ItemTypes (preserves M1 ground-item
pickup flow when ACE seed DB doesn't publish useability).
4. R-key (UseCurrentSelection) upfront gate now ALWAYS uses
IsUseableTarget. R is conceptually "use" with smart-routing
to pickup as a downstream optimization. F-key (SendPickUp)
uses IsPickupableTarget directly.
5. Retail toast strings on block, centralised in new
src/AcDream.Core/Ui/RetailMessages.cs:
- "The X cannot be used" (data 0x007e2a70, sprintf 0x00588ea4)
fires on UseCurrentSelection / SendUse gate block.
- "The X can't be picked up!" (sprintf 0x00587353) fires on
SendPickUp non-pickupable block.
- "You cannot pick up creatures!" (data 0x007e22b4) fires on
SendPickUp creature block (was previously silent).
- Plus 4 inactive retail strings ready for future call sites:
CannotBeUsedWith (two-target Use), CannotBePickedUp (formal
pickup variant), CannotBeUsedWhileOnHook_HooksOff +
CannotBeUsedWhileOnHook_NotOwner (housing). All cite their
retail data addresses + runtime sprintf addresses.
6. ProbeUseabilityFallbackEnabled diagnostic (env var
ACDREAM_PROBE_USEABILITY_FALLBACK=1) logs every time the
null-useability fallback fires. Settles whether the
fallback for creature + BF_DOOR/LIFESTONE/PORTAL/CORPSE
entries in ACE's seed DB without useability is hot code
or theoretical defense.
Test coverage:
- +3 RemoteMoveToDriverTests cover TurnRateFor walking/running/back-compat.
- +7 RetailMessagesTests cover each retail string with retail anchor.
- +1 CreateObjectTests TryParse_WeenieFlagsUsable_ReadsUseableNoValue
pins parser correctness for USEABLE_NO=1.
- 294/294 Core.Net pass; 24/24 new+touched Core tests pass.
- Pre-existing baseline of 8 Physics test failures unchanged
(BSPStepUp + MotionInterpreter regression noise from prior
sessions; out of scope here).
Deferred to a separate session per user direction:
- Click area = indicator-rect retail fidelity. Retail's picker
uses per-part CGfxObj.drawing_sphere + polygon refine
(0x0054c740); ours uses single Setup.SelectionSphere ray-
intersect. The rect corners are dead zones today. Three fix
options analyzed: screen-space rectangle hit-test, sqrt(2)
sphere inflation, polygon refine Stage B.

Per the B.6 design spec (now retail-grounded on Option A), slice 1 is
pure-additive logging so the next session has a clean trace of what
ACE actually sends to the local player during a server-initiated
auto-walk.
New PhysicsDiagnostics.ProbeAutoWalkEnabled static flag, env-var-
initialized from ACDREAM_PROBE_AUTOWALK=1. Probe sites:
[autowalk-out] on SendUse + SendPickUp — the packets that trigger
ACE's CreateMoveToChain when the target is out of WithinUseRadius.
[autowalk-mt] on OnLiveMotionUpdated for _playerServerGuid only —
captures MovementType + MoveToPath origin/min-dist/obj-dist +
moveTowards + speed/runRate. Lets us see exactly the wire data
retail's PerformMovement case 6 (0x00524440) was acting on.
[autowalk-up] on OnLivePositionUpdated for _playerServerGuid only —
cadence + payload of ACE's position broadcasts during auto-walk.
No behavior change. All flags off by default; opt in with the env var
during a focused reproduction. Designed to be mirrored into DebugVM
checkbox state later (parallel to ProbeResolve / ProbeCell / ProbeBuilding)
but not wired yet — env-var-only for the first trace session.
Adds ACDREAM_PROBE_BUILDING — a read-only per-shadow-entry probe that
captures full BSP collision evidence whenever TransitionTypes.FindObjCollisions
attributes a hit (via the existing L.2a slice 3 chain). One multi-line
[resolve-bldg] entry per attributed hit: partIdx, hasPhys, bspR vs
vAabbR, world-space entOrigin_lb, and the actual hit polygon's vertices
in both object-local and world space.
Paired with a one-time [entity-source] line at every ShadowObjects.Register
call site in GameWindow so entityId from a probe line is greppable to its
WorldEntity source within a single log file.
Plumbing: BSPQuery writes the resolved hit polygon to a new
PhysicsDiagnostics.LastBspHitPoly side-channel at the 5 SetCollisionNormal
sites in Paths 5/6 + CollideWithPt. TransitionTypes clears that field
before each shadow-entry dispatch and reads it back at the L.2a slice 3
attribution site to emit the probe line.
Spec component 4 originally described an out ResolvedPolygon? parameter
on BSPQuery.FindCollisions; the static side-channel achieves the same
observable behavior without plumbing through BSPQuery's recursive private
methods. Deviation noted in PhysicsDiagnostics.LastBspHitPoly's XML doc.
Reframes the plan-of-record's L.2d sub-direction paragraph: the 2026-05-12
handoff proposed porting CBuildingObj + per-cell walkability, but ACE
BuildingObj.cs:39-52 + named-retail acclient_2013_pseudo_c.txt:701260
show find_building_collisions is one BSP test on Parts[0]. Per-cell
walkability belongs to L.2e, not L.2d. L.2d slice 1 is the diagnostic;
slice 2 is the actual fix scoped from slice 1's evidence (one of three
hypotheses: wrong BSP loaded / over-registered parts / BSPQuery flaw).
Tests: 2 synthetic unit tests in PhysicsDiagnosticsTests.cs pin the
static API contract that the BSPQuery → side-channel → TransitionTypes
emission chain depends on. The multi-line line format itself is verified
by acceptance criterion 2 (live Holtburg-doorway capture) — covering it
here would require a heavy PhysicsEngine + Transition fixture for a
diagnostic-only emission.
Verified: dotnet build green; the 2 new tests pass; the 8 pre-existing
test failures listed in the L.2a handoff (MotionInterpreter GetMaxSpeed_*,
PositionManager.ComputeOffset_BothActive_Combined,
PlayerMovementController.Update_ForwardInput_*, Dispatcher.W_held_*,
BSPStepUpTests.{D4,C3}) remain failing — none introduced by this slice.

New static `AcDream.Core.Physics.PhysicsDiagnostics` holds two
runtime-toggleable flags initialized from env vars:
- ACDREAM_PROBE_RESOLVE=1 — emit one [resolve] line per
PhysicsEngine.ResolveWithTransition call: input/target/output
position+cell, ok-vs-partial, grounded-in, contact-plane status,
wall normal if hit, walkable-polygon valid, moving entity id.
- ACDREAM_PROBE_CELL=1 — emit one [cell-transit] line per
PlayerMovementController.CellId change: old → new cell, current
world position, reason tag (resolver / teleport).
Both also exposed as runtime-toggleable checkboxes in the DebugPanel
"Diagnostics" section. Unlike the existing four Dump-* checkboxes
(which only mirror sticky-at-startup env vars), the two new ones
forward directly to PhysicsDiagnostics — toggling on/off takes
effect on the next physics resolve, no relaunch.
Why now: L.2's plan-of-record (docs/plans/2026-04-29-movement-collision-
conformance.md) explicitly says "Land L.2a diagnostics first. Do not
make another physics change blind." This slice closes the most-load-
bearing gap in L.2a — a general-purpose probe on the resolver outcome
and a cell-transit log — so that later L.2b/c/d/e physics changes can
be evidence-driven instead of guessed. Foundation for the indoor /
dungeon walking trajectory (G.3 unblock).
Pure additive: when both flags are off (default), the probes collapse
to a single static-bool read per resolve, zero log cost. PlayerMovement
Controller's two CellId-mutation sites are now routed through a
private UpdateCellId(reason) helper for diag chokepoint.
Build green, 1032/1040 unit tests pass. The 8 failing tests are
pre-existing on the branch base (verified by stash-and-rerun);
none touch resolver or cell-transit code; all fail identically with
this slice stashed. Investigation deferred to a follow-up.
