During a portal transit the two world-frame owners legitimately rebase
on different edges (Runtime at TeleportAdvanced, streaming only after
old-window retirement), and a spawn projection landing in that window
hit the #283 invariant as an unhandled render-path throw — the crash
the user hit entering a dungeon.
The guard's check is unchanged; only the disagreement RESPONSE is
discriminated on the canonical transit authority
(RuntimeWorldTransitState.IsTeleportActive, the same field the App
layer already reads for portal-in-flight): in transit -> the
materializer's existing "not yet" return, parking the projection on
its established retry rides (OnLandblockLoaded's re-attempt loop,
whose ordering guarantees agreement on retry because the recenter
coordinator adopts the new origin BEFORE unblocking new landblock
loads — verified at source; plus OnPosition recovery and
OnAppearance). Outside transit -> still throws: genuine corruption
stays loud. The implementer explicitly ruled out riding the Runtime
placement pump, which would have acknowledged-and-discarded the
completion receipt and silently dropped the entity forever.
Sabotage: removing the discriminator reddened the pre-existing #283
throw tests as well as the new not-in-transit test — the sabotage
defeats the original contract, not merely the new coverage. Four new
tests cover defer, defer-then-agree-then-succeed (projected exactly
once), throw-outside-transit, and the agreeing pass-through.
Clean-room suite: 11,261 passed / 6 skipped / 0 failed. #346 filed for
a sixth, distinct load-sensitive allocation flake observed during the
runs.

LiveEntityCollisionBuilder and LiveEntityDefaultPoseResolver move from
AcDream.App.Physics to AcDream.Runtime.Physics with no behaviour change
— diff-verified byte-identical shape math by both review lenses. The
Build signature's App-record parameter is replaced by presentation-free
primitives with identical guard semantics, INCLUDING the
FinalPhysicsState read the contract had missed and the implementer
surfaced rather than dropped. Visibility stays internal: Runtime's
existing InternalsVisibleTo grants already cover every consumer, so the
implementation's public widening is reverted per the architecture
review's finding 11.
The registration WIRING is deliberately WITHHELD. Both Opus lenses
failed it, converging: a shadow registered at spawn freezes there
(RuntimeRemotePhysicsUpdater is Runtime-homed but App-driven — nothing
headless ticks it), so a walking NPC becomes a phantom obstacle at its
spawn point while the real NPC still passes through the bot; three of
five shadow-lifetime edges leaked (pickup leaves a permanent invisible
collider, supersession orphans a duplicate, generation reset never
unregisters and the K-ledger convergence oracle only checks retained
shadows AFTER disposal clears them); and headless cannot resolve BSP
collision assets at all, so doors and chests would still be
walk-through. The frozen-shadow root was the SESSION LEAD's contract
error (fact 3), not the implementer's.
#330 stays OPEN, rewritten as the seven-point scope map the reviews
produced — the honest overnight deliverable is that map, not a
half-mechanism carrying new divergences.
Suite 11,235 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (the withheld seam's two
tests account for the delta from the implementation run's 11,237).

Both review lenses PASSED; this is the cleanup, not a rescue. Evidence:
docs/research/2026-08-06-ap156-review-closure.md (the review itself is
committed alongside it as the received artifact).
R1 — the load-bearing containment test could not fail. Its truth and flood
values were two hand-copies of the same expression over the same part set,
so the shortfall was algebraically identically zero for any DAT input. The
oracle is now PHYSICS-POLYGON VERTICES — a different DAT field from the
bounding sphere the builder emits, so the two sides can genuinely disagree.
Sabotage-verified three ways after full cleans: dropping the bounds centre
in production reddens it (428 Setups, worst 35.869 m on 0x0200129A, matching
an independent out-of-repo sweep exactly); dropping only the scale on the
centre reddens it (326); and corrupting the TEST's own bounds oracle reddens
it (467) where under the shipped oracle that same corruption was invisible
by algebra. Renamed accordingly. A6's stale "cap control" comment corrected:
that loop is the test's own uncapped re-implementation and cannot observe a
cap regression — the cap is covered in Core.
R2 — the population was understated. 172 is AP-152's DISPATCH population;
AP-156's is 530 BSP-bearing Setups, of which 525 have a flood sphere move
and 428 fail vertex containment before the fix (412 at a 1 cm tolerance —
the review's figure; the gap is 16 Setups between 1.4 mm and 10 mm, real
geometry). 0 fail after, at any tolerance down to zero. Corrected in the
AP-156 row, the section-3 header, the C5c handoff and two test docstrings.
Dated review artifacts are left as written — "170 of 172" was correct for
what they measured, and rewriting evidence to match a later measurement
loses provenance.
A1 — BoundsCenter = default reopened at the type what the commit closed at
the seam. Dropping the default alone would NOT have closed the review's own
scenario (a copied Cylinder call site would write Vector3.Zero explicitly
and stay green), so ShadowShape's constructor is now private and BSP shapes
are built only through ShadowShape.Bsp(..., FlatCollisionSphere localBounds),
which takes radius and centre as ONE value and scales them together. There
is no expression a caller can write that carries one and drops the other.
22 construction sites converted; the same sabotage now reddens 5 Core tests
where the review's sabotage A reached 4, because both BSP producers share
one scaling path.
A2 — #333 is real and bigger than filed, and its retail question is
answered. I disassembled CObjCell::find_obj_collisions @0x0052b750 from the
PDB-paired binary myself (check_exe_pdb.py MATCH) rather than inheriting the
claim: its only early-out is sphere_path.insert_type == INITIAL_PLACEMENT_
INSERT, then it calls FindObjCollisions on every unparented non-self shadow
object UNCONDITIONALLY. Retail has NO distance pre-filter, so acdream's
"+ movement + 2f" reach filter is an invention with no register row — filed
as AP-158, carrying the disassembly, the F_EPSILON = 0.0002 m contrast, and
the measured blast radius (118 of 477 unique installed physics-BSP GfxObjs
exceed its ~2.5 m budget, 46 exceed 5 m). Active AP rows 109 -> 110.
Recorded prominently in three places a reader will hit: TALL PROPS MAY SHOW
NO VISIBLE CHANGE UNTIL #333 LANDS, and a null result at the connected gate
is EXPECTED, not evidence against AP-156.
LOW items. R3: the comment claiming the cited evidence justified the whole
cap line is corrected, but int.MaxValue on the sorting-sphere branch stays —
capping at 1 would take Spheres[0], and retail's one sphere is
CSetup::sorting_sphere, a different DAT field; capping keeps the wrong field
AND flips the substitution under-inclusive (#98/#168 direction). AP-157
already owns it. R4: acdream scales the flood sphere where retail's
find_transit_cells never reads gfxobj_scale — added as a second residual on
AP-156. R5: retail's slack constant carried into AP-158 and #333. A3: the
per-call delegate allocation is back to a cached field, still derived from
the single bounds resolver. A5: noted; b52967de's message cannot be amended.
Gates: all 44 bin/obj deleted before every verdict-deciding build, each test
run gated on a verified "Build succeeded" in the same invocation. Release
build 0 errors / 21 pre-existing warnings. Complete suite 11,208 passed /
4 skipped / 0 failed — reconciles exactly with the e2b2d04c baseline; one
test renamed, none added, removed or skipped. Nothing conflated with the
known load-sensitive flakes #302 / #308 / #321.

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.

The steady-state accepted-Position merge did two things retail never does,
on every single Position packet: it installed the wire placement frame and
unparented unconditionally, and it derived the record's FullCellId from
bare wire acceptance. Both are now correct, and they land together - a
half-flipped intermediate (classified flags with the wire stamp, or vice
versa) is exactly the mixed-residency state this campaign keeps paying for.
WHY the flags need no route. SmartBox::HandleReceivedPosition @0x00453FD0
decides both pre-placement writes BEFORE MoveOrTeleport is consulted: Gate A
@0x0045400C returns @0x0045409D ahead of unset_parent @0x00454129 and ahead
of the HasAnims SetPlacementFrame gate @0x00454137. Neither gate reads the
near/far/teleport classification. So the two flags are a pure function of
(disposition, hasAnimations) and are computable inside the merge, pre-merge,
with no signature change, no route construction and no playerDistance - the
scoping's ~150-400-line route-plumbing estimate over-counted because it did
not see this. That truth table IS
RuntimeAuthoritativePositionRouteClassifier.ClassifyAcceptedPosition's own
ApplyPlacementFrameBeforeRouting/UnparentBeforeRouting rows; the classifier
stays the oracle and the equality is pinned by test, not by a shared path,
so each computation remains separately sabotage-verifiable.
WHY the cell is withheld. HandleReceivedPosition reads the wire objcell_id
into a LOCAL @0x00453FE3 and hands it only to BlipPlayer / TeleportPlayer /
MoveOrTeleport / ConstrainTo; it never assigns the object's cell. The
object's cell moves inside the placement family (SetPositionInternal
@0x00515BD0 to set_cell, enter_world) or per-frame transit, and nowhere
else. The continuation executor has encoded that rule since the executor
slice; this caller now matches it verbatim.
WHAT DELIBERATELY SURVIVES. Two steady-state wire-cell writers stay,
downstream of the merge and outside the classification window: the
OnPosition prologue rebucket (W2, into CommitRebucket), which is also the
local player's own cell-freshness path, and the post-routing wire-cell adopt
for non-placing arms (W3, AP-135). Gating W2 "for symmetry" would freeze the
player's canonical cell between teleports and #319's child-cell equality
would inherit the freeze. AD-60's rewrite names both so the retirement
cannot be misread as "wire acceptance never changes residency anywhere".
REGISTER. AP-131 RETIRED - the unconditional literals no longer exist; the
caller was corrected, not deleted, so the row's own "deleted at the
production cutover" framing is overtaken. AD-60's legacy half RETIRED and
the row REWRITTEN rather than deleted, naming W2/W3 (route 4b-3's D8
precedent: a silent whole-row deletion would hide surviving channels).
AP-130 amended - the merge consumes the same static HasAnimations proxy,
deliberately not escalated to a live animation-queue read. AP-146 and #320
amended - their "accepted inbound Position (RefreshSnapshot into
RuntimeEntityRecord.cs:234)" local-player cell writer is now the generic
tail's CommitRebucket, and a ForcePosition (which returns before that tail)
is placement-receipt-authoritative. #275 closed.
HEADLINE BEHAVIOURAL DELTA, stated once: a refused or contended local
ForcePosition now leaves FullCellId at the last committed cell where the
merge used to stamp the refused packet's wire cell. Retail cannot refuse
(AD-62) and its body keeps its last placed cell, so the new shape is the
retail-reachable one.
THREE CONSUMER SITES THE CONTRACT'S BLAST-RADIUS SURVEY MISSED, all
D2-caused, all found by the suite rather than by reading, all intended
semantics rather than regressions (recorded in the contract's new section
14):
(1) DatLiveEntityProjectionMaterializer's self-projection branch reads
FullCellId inside OnPosition's prologue recovery, ahead of W2. It now
correctly declines to project from an unplaced wire claim; production
installs the bucket at W2 in the same call (verified: no return between
the recovery call and W2 is conditioned on IsSpatiallyProjected or
FullCellId). Two hydration tests asserted the bucket at the recovery
boundary and now drive the production W2 step - the same shape as trap
T2, one layer up.
(2) ProjectileController.SyncPresentationFromResolvedBody writes
ParentCellId = record.FullCellId. On a refused missile placement that is
now the committed source cell. The MAJOR-1 invariant is unchanged and is
now asserted as the identity it always meant rather than as a wire-cell
constant.
(3) The merge's Rebucketed ternary does NOT become always-Updated as the
contract predicted, and is deliberately kept: the
Forget(restoreCancelledPark: true) above it can roll a wakeable
lost-cell park back, and RestoreParkWithdrawal restores canonical
residency. That is a real cell edge produced inside this method by a
placement owner.
TEST-COUNT RECONCILIATION. Baseline measured at this HEAD by stashing the
change: Runtime.Tests 1176, App.Tests 4135 (4132 passed / 3 skipped),
solution 11,106 passed / 4 skipped - matching the recorded figure at
6921a027 exactly. Post-change: Runtime.Tests 1195, App.Tests 4135 unchanged,
solution 11,125 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed. Net +19, entirely new Runtime
tests: 3 facts plus a 12-row matrix theory in
InboundPhysicsStateControllerTests, 1 fact plus a 2-row theory in the new
RuntimeSteadyStatePositionMergeTests, and 1 fact in
RuntimeAcceptedPositionDriveControllerTests. No test was deleted; five
existing tests were rewritten in place, never delete-only. No new skip; none
of #302/#308/#321 appeared.
SABOTAGE VERIFICATIONS (each new discriminating test, both directions;
production line broken, suite run, line restored):
installPlacementFrame (!force && !hasAnimations) to (!force)
5 fail: ApplyOnAnimatedEntity_NeverInstallsTheWirePlacementFrame plus
the 4 animated non-force matrix rows.
installPlacementFrame to false
6 fail: ApplyOnNonAnimatedEntity_InstallsTheWirePlacementFrame,
PositionPlacementAbsentAndPresentZeroBothApplyRetailZero plus the 4
non-animated non-force matrix rows.
clearParent (!force) to true
3 fail: ForcePositionOnParentedLocalPlayer_RetainsTheParentAttachment
plus the 2 force+parented matrix rows.
clearParent (!force) to false
4 fail: the 4 Apply+parented matrix rows.
refreshPosition false to acceptedPosition
4 fail: AcceptedPosition_WithholdsTheWireCellAtTheMergeBoundary,
ContendedForcePosition_WritesNoResidencyAnywhere,
ReentrantNewerPositionDuringPickupDiscardSuppressesStalePickupDelta,
MissileFarRefused_...ParentCellIdAgreesWithCommittedCell. Confirmed a
second time by the baseline measurement above, where the withhold test
was the sole red.
CommitRebucket publishes Updated instead of Rebucketed
2 fail: both parent classes of
CellChangingAcceptedPosition_ConservesOneRebucketAndOneChildPropagation.
RuntimeEntityDirectory.SetFullCell drops PropagateFullCellToChildren
2 fail: the same two rows.
T4 respected: the ForcePosition placement-frame half is inert
(appliedPlacement keeps old.PlacementId under either flag value), so the
force row's discriminating assertion is parent retention, never the frame.
NOT DONE, deliberately: the executor is still not wired into the
steady-state path (#275's alternative branch); W2/W3 are untouched; no probe
added or stripped; AP-130's proxy not escalated; no while-here unification
of the two merge callsites. No automated OnPosition-level test drives the
full pickup / drop / reproject sequence (no fixture covers pickup at that
layer); the contract's connected gate recipe item 1 is the positive evidence
for it and has NOT been run - this commit is not connected-gated.
Contract: docs/research/2026-08-05-c5b-contract.md (committed here, with its
section 14 implementation outcome appended).

RuntimePlacementPresentationSink.TryPublishPlace previously published the
local player's collision-shadow pose with a direct LocalPlayerShadowState.Set
call — a plain cache write that never touched PhysicsEngine.ShadowObjects.
Because LocalPlayerShadowSynchronizer.SyncPose's own dedup check compares
against that same cache, the direct write could pre-seed the cache with the
destination pose and cause the next real SyncPose call to see "nothing
changed" and skip its own ShadowObjects publish — leaving the real collision
shadow at the pre-teleport position until an unrelated movement tick forced
a real publish.
Fix: TryPublishPlace now calls _localPlayerShadowSync.SyncPose(...,
force: true), the same publisher ordinary per-tick movement uses, so Place
always drives a real ShadowObjects write before the cache updates.
TryPublishWithdrawal carried the exact mirror asymmetry (a bare
LocalPlayerShadowState.Clear with no ShadowObjects.Suspend, leaving a live
phantom shadow row at the park's source cell for the whole park window — the
#184 shape) and is fixed in the same commit, same one-call shape:
_localPlayerShadowSync.Suspend(entity). The sink no longer holds a direct
LocalPlayerShadowState reference; both halves route exclusively through the
one synchronizer, which owns the cache internally.
The single LocalPlayerShadowSynchronizer instance is now constructed in
LivePresentationComposition (before the sink) and threaded through
LivePresentationResult to SessionPlayerComposition, which no longer builds
its own — this guarantees the sink's Place/Withdraw edge and ordinary
per-tick movement publish through the exact same publisher and cache rather
than two independent instances that could drift out of sync with each other.
TryPublishPlace's xmldoc now states the behavioural nuance directly: routing
through SyncPose means Place inherits SyncPose's own admission guard
(IsHidden, cellId == 0, not-current-visible-projection), which the old
direct .Set() call never consulted. Under those conditions SyncPose now
calls Suspend instead of publishing — correct and symmetric, but new
behaviour worth flagging at the call site, not just in a test comment.
RuntimePlacementShadowCompositionTests.cs (#318) proves four facts against
the real ShadowObjects registry, not the cache: a bare Place publishes a
real row at the destination cell with the source cell's row gone; a
subsequent ordinary per-tick Sync is then a correct no-op; a Place for a
registered non-local-player entity leaves its row at the source cell
untouched and never touches the player's cache (route 7 P4 — the fix lives
entirely inside the pre-existing player-only gate); and Withdraw suspends
the real registry row, not just the cache, with the retained
(suspendable) registration surviving for a later restore. All four were
sabotage-verified in both directions.
RuntimeForcePositionRenderCommitTests.cs (B2) drives a real end-to-end
accepted ForcePosition through RuntimeEntityObjectLifetime.TryApplyPosition
and RuntimeAcceptedPositionDriveController.TryExecuteAcceptedLocalPosition
against a live HostFixture, asserting both the committed render position
AND a cell change that deliberately crosses out of the spawn's outdoor grid
cell, so the cell assertion is independently falsifiable rather than riding
along with the position assertion.

A player-parented child never received a canonical cell. Its FullCellId stayed
0 for its whole attached lifetime, so it could not follow the player across a
boundary. Scope was wider than the local player: every REMOTE player's
equipment too.
ROOT CAUSE. EquippedChildRenderController hardcoded ParentInstanceSequence: 0
for a parented CreateObject. Correct for creatures and statics, which really
are sequence 0; wrong for players, whose ObjectInstance is Character.TotalLogins
(ACE Player_Networking.cs:37). The relation filed under (playerGuid, 0) while
the record carried TotalLogins, so both route-7 write sites — D1's attach
re-cell and D2's propagation lookup — keyed on an incarnation that never
matched. TryCommitParent did not validate the sequence, so the attach
succeeded and printed normally. Silent.
A ROUTE 7 REGRESSION (cd3129e9) that un-masked a latent bug: the TickChild call
route 7 deleted was keyed on the child guid alone and was structurally immune
to a wrong parent key.
THE FIX IS TO STOP TREATING PLAYERS DIFFERENTLY, not to special-case them.
Retail's attach path is guid-only end to end — PhysicsDesc::get_parent_id
@0x00558a18 -> CObjectMaint::GetObjectA @0x00558a2d -> set_parent @0x00558a3e,
with SetChildren @0x00509370 hash-walking by guid — and neither set_parent
overload (@0x00515A90, @0x00515B50) nor enter_cell @0x00510ED0 contains any
player test or instance-sequence read. Our player/non-player split was purely
an artifact of keying relations by (guid, incarnation) against a wire message
that carries no parent incarnation. Late-binding to whoever currently holds the
guid is retail's own semantics. Fixed at BOTH producers: OnSpawn and
OnCreateParentAccepted, the second carrying the byte-identical defect and not
named in the contract's scope line.
THE INVARIANT IS EQUALITY, NOT FRESHNESS. The contract rejected both framings I
offered: every one of the 45 FullCellId liveness predicates excludes a
committed child on a NON-cell clause first, so the child inherits only the
parent record's existing staleness, which is already present today with no
symptom. The key fix alone restores child-equals-parent for every parent class.
TWO SITES GATED, inert only because the cell was zero and would have woken
wrongly: the hydration candidate loop (a nonzero-cell child would take the
legacy RebucketLiveEntity -> CommitRebucket, a second canonical writer — route
7's exact defect class) and RestoreShadow (would install a broadphase row for
the weapon, the #184 shape, contradicting route 7's P4). Retail anchor:
update_object's parent != 0 early-out @0x00515D40 — children are never
independently re-placed.
THREE MAJORS WERE FIXED BY DELETION. The first pass added a deferral queue for
an unaddressable parent, carrying a missing child-freshness gate (A2), a
sentinel-0 collision with the generation filters (A3), and unbounded
accumulation (A5). Both reviewers then proved the deferred branch unreachable
for BOTH producers — RegisterEntityCore defers the entire CreateObject one
layer above, reading the same ?? chain, and CreateParentUpdate is produced only
inside AcceptCreateCore, after that gate passes. The machinery was deleted
rather than repaired, and the diff SHRANK to 76 added / 13 removed from 91/24
while gaining the A1 fix. Retail confirmed the deletion does not diverge:
acdream's real port of retail's per-guid replay (QueueBlobForObject) is a
different, untouched layer, and the deleted queue was a third redundant one
downstream of it.
THE GUARD MUST NOT TEAR WHAT IT PROTECTS. The first pass threw
InvalidOperationException AFTER the canonical half had committed, so the one
time it fired it left the child parented with no committed relation and a
staged one blocking Resolve — a torn transaction, the exact outcome the
contract pinned against. Now a pure CanCommitIncarnation precondition checked
BEFORE the commit at both sites, with a logged refusal instead of a throw.
Route 3's N3 principle (do not make a transient fatal on a host that must
survive 30 sessions x 2 hours) reinforces it, but the tearing argument stands
alone.
TEST QUALITY, the recurring lesson in its most refined form. The A1 test
initially passed sabotage FOR THE WRONG REASON: a mismatched ChildPositionSequence
meant TryCommitParent's own gate refused in either ordering, so the three
assertions carrying A1's meaning passed both ways and only an incidental
staging assertion failed. It failed on stranding, not tearing. Corrected, the
sabotage now names line 925 — Assert.Null(snapshot.ParentGuid), with the
parent's guid in it — proving the canonical mutation happened before the catch.
"Fails under sabotage" is necessary, not sufficient; WHICH assertion fails is
the real question.
The dual parent-class matrix (player 0x5… incarnation > 1 vs creature 0x8…
incarnation 0, identical outcomes, sabotage-verified in both directions) is the
structural fix for how this survived a full dual review and two connected
sessions: every prior test and both captured gate logs used sequence-0 parents.
Register: AP-142 clause (f); AP-132 amended to distinguish the two producers;
new row AP-146 for the local player's coarse canonical cell (retail writes it
per tick at SetPositionInternal @0x00515330 — which, per the retail review, ALSO
walks this->children writing each child's objcell_id @0x005153AE-@0x005153D8,
so retail's per-tick child propagation lives in the same function). That
divergence had no row at all, a standing rule-1 violation now corrected.
Follow-up #320 filed for making the player's cell track ordinary movement —
deliberately excluded here: it touches the landblock-preserve contract, the
Rebucketed cadence, route-2/4b-3 classification inputs AP-136/AP-138 spent four
review rounds pinning, and the portal-space frozen-source-cell race.
Two dual review rounds; 6 architecture MAJORs and 2 retail MAJORs closed.
Diagnostic refusals are latched per child guid and the latch clears on
Clear()/RemoveChild, so a recycled guid's next incarnation still logs rather
than being silently suppressed.
Complete Release suite MEASURED at 11,112 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed
(baseline 11,090 at 52175aa1, +22). Neither known flake fired.
STILL OWED: the connected gate, with the CORRECTED positive criterion — assert
the equipped child's FullCellId EQUALS the parent's after a crossing (a zero is
a failure, not a silence), run with BOTH a player and a creature parent, plus
the new step carrying an armed creature across a landblock unload/reload.

Removes a duplicate placement authority for local-player portal arrival.
Portalling worked before this change and works after it — this is not a
bug fix, EXCEPT that it found and fixed one dead-code production bug.
THE PRODUCTION BUG: TryExecuteCanonicalPortalPlacement re-read the
accepted destination at Place time, but TryBeginPortalReveal already
consumes that slot at Aim time — so the arm was 100% dead code and every
real portal Place refused with host-token-unavailable. Found only
because we refused to accept 7 skipped tests instead of chasing the
count to zero.
RETAIL IS THE GENERIC PATH FOR THE THIRD ROUTE RUNNING:
SmartBox::TeleportPlayer @0x00453910 = SetPositionSimple(dest, 1) with
flags 0x1012, followed by PlayerPositionUpdated.
BOTH INVERSIONS, WITH THEIR ANCHORS: unlike route 2, the leash IS armed
here (ConstrainTo @0x0045418A) and velocity is zeroed
(set_velocity @0x004541B4); unlike route 4b-3, the local teleport_hook
runs AFTER placement (@0x004538AE).
THE THREE-ROUND DEFECT CHAIN, HONESTLY:
- Round 1 released the player at the pre-teleport position while the
anim stream marched on — the contract wrongly assumed Place re-fires
(process rule 1's third occurrence this campaign).
- Round 2's fix inferred commit from a global PendingCount, which three
non-committing paths also clear — making the SAME bug complete
cleanly and silently. Strictly worse than round 1: round 1 at least
tripped portal-complete-before-materialized.
- Round 3 latches the commit where it actually happens
(ReconcileAndAcknowledgePortal), keyed on reveal generation and
teleport sequence, via TryConsumePortalCommit. Two of the three
required regression tests landed and are sabotage-verified on both
hosts (ParkedPlace_ForgottenByOrdinaryMergeDoesNotLatchAsCommitted /
HeadlessPortalPrepareDestinationForgottenByOrdinaryMergeDoesNotLatchAsCommitted).
The third (force-arm-takes-the-slot) was judged unnecessary on review:
with the inference gone, PendingCount is only a "don't ask yet" guard
at both gates, so a force operation occupying or vacating the slot no
longer changes an input the commit decision reads — the case collapses
into what the landed test already discriminates.
THE B2/P3 RESOLUTION: both round-2 reviews were right about different
branches of the same synchronous call. RuntimePlacementProjectionSubscription
.OnPlacement acknowledges the FIFO head only when TryApply returns true;
a Place whose portal authority went stale (transit ended/superseded
while parked) used to return false, wedging every later entity's
placement receipt behind it forever. Both sinks
(RuntimePlacementPresentationSink, HeadlessRuntimePlacementProjectionSink)
now acknowledge-and-ignore a stale-authority Place instead of refusing
it. The regression test (RuntimePlacementPresentationSinkTests
.PortalPlace_StaleTransitHostOrSequenceIsAcknowledgedAndIgnored) had
been asserting the old, wrong `false` behaviour; it now asserts and
sabotage-verifies the fix.
Also lands: AP-144 (register discipline — the portal movement-event
send reuses the stricter UsePositionFromServer gate where retail's
SendMovementEvent is the looser autonomy_level != 0 test, diverging
only at level 1, currently unreachable), AP-145 + issue #318 (the
local-player collision-shadow presentation write bypasses its own
publisher's ShadowObjects write via a direct cache .Set(), self-healing
only once dedup diverges — filed, not fixed, pending a composition
test), AD-42 deleted (its last citation retired by the canonical portal
arm), AD-2 updated (the wait-cue's trigger predicate now covers a
second cause), and two documentation corrections: the enter_world
misattribution (both call sites are in SmartBox::HandleCreateObject,
only one in the player branch — portal arrival is TeleportPlayer, not
enter_world) and the stale "local player never reaches this path"
comment on the generic-remote-render-pose write.
Suite: 11,090 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed. No new skips, nothing
weakened.
STILL OWED: the connected two-client gate, with
ACDREAM_PROBE_LOCAL_TELEPORT=1, scored only if [local-tp] lines
actually appear in the capture — and explicitly NOT scored as covering
issue #318 (no composition test yet asserts PhysicsEngine.ShadowObjects
directly).

Found by C4 route 6's integration tests (1b484937) and split out of that
zero-production closure per the standing split-on-discovery rule.
PendingSplitToWorldProjection.BuildSpawn zeroes the top-level
MovementSequence/ServerControlSequence, but its Physics.Timestamps `with`
block overrode only Position/Teleport/ForcePosition/Instance — leaving
Timestamps.Movement and .ServerControlledMove at the SOURCE item's values.
RuntimeEntityObjectLifetime.HasConsistentCreateIdentityAndParent requires the
PhysicsDesc timestamps and their flattened projections to agree, so the
synthetic spawn failed the predicate and TryRecoverUnknownPosition threw
`CreateObject 0x… has inconsistent instance or parent projections` instead of
completing the canonical create-placement transaction.
Reachable in ordinary play: retail's per-object update_times channels are
monotonic and do not reset when an item re-enters a container, so any item
that ever had world presence — dropped once, picked back up, then split —
carries nonzero values in exactly those two fields. The split pile then never
appears.
Fix is the honest value, not a placation of the predicate: a fresh split GUID
has no movement history by construction, so both channels are zero in both
projections. Deliberately NOT fixed by loosening
HasConsistentCreateIdentityAndParent — the predicate was right and the
producer was wrong.
The route-6 test that documented the throw
(SplitSourceWithRetainedMovementTimestamps_ThrowsInsteadOfRecovering) is
renamed to …_StillRecovers and now pins the fix. It asserts more than "no
throw": the result's movement channels must be ZERO in both projections, so
the test cannot pass against a lenient-predicate workaround. Sabotage-verified
in both directions — restoring the old BuildSpawn reproduces the exact
original InvalidOperationException.
Notable for the campaign record: this is a crash in the precise mechanism
route 6's scoping cited as EVIDENCE that drops already converge on the
canonical transaction. Reading the code said the path converges; driving it
said it throws. The zero-production route was still correct — and building its
tests anyway is what found this.
Complete Release suite 11,020 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed, unchanged from
1b484937 (the test flipped its assertion rather than being added). Neither
known flake fired.

Route 6 needs no production change and this commit contains none: C3c
(529e0e9d) already flipped both hosts' Create paths onto the residence lease,
so a dropped item is byte-for-byte route 1's create classification
(RuntimePositionEntityKind.Remote, RuntimeCreateResidenceKind.TopLevel,
ClassifyCreate -> SetPosition with InitialCreateFlags = Placement | Slide).
Route 6 is a SOURCE of route-1 traffic, not a route of its own. Both drop
flavours converge on LiveEntityHydrationController.OnCreate ->
RegisterEntityWithInitialResidence — the whole-item drop through
ItemInteractionController's DropToWorld (no physics, no position; the server
decides), and split-to-world through TryRecoverUnknownPosition's call to the
identical entry point. Contract:
docs/research/2026-08-04-c4-route-6-contract.md.
Retires a FALSE PREMISE from the campaign plan (:97-100), which claimed
split-recovery creates "need an effect-replay suppression signal". Verified
against the decomp instead of assumed: play_default_script @0x005132B0 /
@0x00513300 has exactly three call sites in the entire pseudo-C dump —
DefaultScriptPartHook::Execute @0x00526c08, DefaultScriptHook::Execute
@0x00526c14, and ACCWeenieObject::DoCollision @0x0058c3b4 — and NONE from
set_description or CreateObject. Neither client plays a default script at
create, so there is nothing to suppress. acdream's only create-time replay is
the F754/F755 queue drain keyed by server GUID, which is retail's own
HandleCreateObject @0x00454C80 behaviour. The plan's other two clauses were
closed at C0 (TryCommitParent/CommitWithdrawal cancellation symmetry;
host-visible cancellation receipts); the list now states what actually
remains — route 7's child-cell two-writer split and the headless
parent-realize gap.
Retail split marking recorded for the record: UIAttemptSplitTo3D @0x0058D850
stores only splitStackSize/splitClassID/splitTime and performs no placement;
DeclareValid @0x0058E340's recovery action is SetSelectedObject @0x0058E481 —
a SELECTION transfer with a 10-second expiry, not effect suppression and not
placement. UIAttemptPutIn3D @0x0058D700 records no marker at all.
Seven tests over the now-flipped path (whole item, split stack, new-GUID
recovery, second drop, unavailable destination, newer Position after the
pending identity is consumed, plus the #314 repro), each sabotage-verified:
the production path was broken on purpose, the test was confirmed to fail,
and the sabotage reverted. R6-c is now settled by assertion rather than
argument — BuildSpawn's wholesale clone of Children/Movement/AnimationFrame/
SetupTableId is measured, not reasoned about.
FOUND WHILE TESTING — #314, filed not fixed (this route is zero-production by
contract). BuildSpawn resets top-level MovementSequence/ServerControlSequence
to 0 but its Timestamps `with` block overrides only Position/Teleport/
ForcePosition/Instance, leaving Physics.Timestamps.Movement and
.ServerControlledMove at the SOURCE item's values.
HasConsistentCreateIdentityAndParent requires the two projections to agree, so
a split whose source carries nonzero Movement timestamps — plausible for any
item dropped once, picked up, and split again — fails the predicate and throws
instead of completing the canonical transaction. Verified in source, not taken
on report. Note this is a crash in the exact mechanism the scoping cited as
EVIDENCE that drops already converge: code reading said the path converges,
driving it said it throws. Fixed in the immediately following commit.
Also filed: #313 (DeclareValid's SetSelectedObject port is missing and the
container-split flavour records no marker — selection UX, deliberately not
implemented inside a placement closure) and #315 (route 4b-3's per-packet
runTeleportHook Func<bool> closure at three RunRemoteArmTail call sites; the
network packet path, not Slice I's per-frame resolve path — filed now because
route 5 adds a fourth site). AP-124 stays open and registered.
Test lines are 410 against a 150-250 guidance, accepted: the excess is a real
ItemInteractionController harness plus the #314 repro, which is what found the
defect. A mock that proved nothing would have been shorter and worthless.
Complete Release suite MEASURED at 11,020 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed
(baseline 11,013/4/0 at 6dc7ba51; +7 new). Neither known flake fired.
Connected gate (user-run) still owed: drop a whole item, split a stack to the
ground, drop a second within ~1 m, repeat indoors and after a portal recall,
then walk two landblocks away and back.

Flips the last remote classification (SetPosition: teleport-advanced and
cell-less) onto 4b-1's RuntimeRemotePlacementDriveController, runs retail's
teleport_hook before the placement, and deletes the legacy remote-teleport
machinery. Contract: docs/research/2026-08-04-c4-route-4b-3-contract.md.
Retail: MoveOrTeleport @0x00516330's branch @0x00516386 -> teleport_hook
@0x005163EF -> SetFlags(0x1012) @0x00516414 -> SetPosition @0x00516420 ->
return 1 @0x00516438. The hook @0x00514ED0 runs BEFORE the placement and
regardless of its outcome. Retail places this branch unconditionally, at any
distance and any contact state (arg4 is read only @0x0051638E, after the
branch) — which is what retires AP-137's cell-less enqueue-vs-place delta.
D1 — the classifier's cell-less input is now the PRE-merge committed cell.
Retail's predicate is `this_1->cell == 0`, the BODY's own cell at
MoveOrTeleport entry (this_1 is assigned from this @0x00516334). acdream fed
the POST-merge canonical.FullCellId, which RefreshSnapshot ->
RefreshDerivedState -> SetFullCell has already stamped with the accepted wire
cell; a zero wire cell fails validation into RejectedData first. The shipped
remote cell-less predicate was therefore dead code, not merely different from
remotePlacementRequired. Threaded via a builder overload; route 1's overload
is untouched. The graphical !IsSpatiallyVisible arm of
projectionRequiresTeleportHook is deleted — a presentation predicate with no
retail analogue that fired the teleport machinery on a routine hot path.
Deleted: RemoteTeleportController (605), RemoteTeleportPlacement (85),
RemoteShadowPlacementSynchronizer (49), their 1,709 lines of tests, the
remotePlacementRequired predicate, the TeleportHookRequired plumbing, the
legacy pre-operation ConstrainTo fallback, and the player arm's legacy
!IsGrounded fallback. Net -2,030 lines.
Structural fix (two independent Opus reviews, round 1 FAIL/FAIL): three of the
four MAJORs were one defect — OnPosition carried two parallel inline copies of
the routing tail (player-guid, NPC-guid) that had drifted. Extracted
RunRemoteArmTail (3 call sites) and ApplyWireAirborneLeftoverBookkeeping (2),
both branches now share one implementation.
A1 ToConstraintArm mapped AirborneSnap -> AirborneNoOperation, so the NPC
arm armed ConstrainTo ZERO times for an out-of-contact wire-grounded
creature — a regression this slice introduced while closing a
structurally identical hole. Now maps to NearInterpolate; switch made
total with a throwing default proven unreachable.
R1 D2's write-nothing shape existed on the player arm only; NPC packets
fell through and wrote the body. Retail makes no player/NPC distinction.
R2 report_collision_end(this,1) @0x00514F31 was bound to
ShadowObjects.Suspend, a port of a DIFFERENT retail function
(remove_shadows_from_cells) that teleport_hook never calls. Now routes
to RuntimeCollisionReportingState.LeaveWorld, which wraps the private
ForceEnd in an admission-blocking transaction so a DoCollisionEnd
callback cannot recreate the contact table.
R3/A2 A teleported NPC synthesized ServerVelocity from the teleport distance
(~1,000+ m/s) and planned a run cycle from it. Both the install and
RemoteServerControlledVelocityCycle.Apply now gate on !isTeleportRoute.
BISECT HAZARD — A1's fix is correct only BECAUSE R1 landed. AirborneSnap is
reachable wire-airborne on the NPC arm only while D2's shape is missing there.
Reverting R1 alone silently inverts A1 into the opposite divergence: arming
where retail returns 0. Revert both or neither.
Also in the velocity hunk: the NPC block's two !IsPlayerGuid(update.Guid)
guards were dropped when it was wrapped in `if (!isTeleportRoute)`. Safe — all
five exit paths of the enclosing IsPlayerGuid block return, so the predicate is
unconditionally false below it — but it was unremarked by both reviews.
Register: AP-137 REWRITTEN (not deleted) to the surviving acdream-only
divergences — null classification during the login window and Rejected*
through UnroutedCatchUp keep a row. AD-42's RemoteTeleportController citation
retired; AP-136/AP-138 writer lists corrected to the two surviving non-Position
rebucket writers; AP-138 gains the teleport arm as a second producer of the
visible-without-collision residual (retirement path remains #309). AP-135 is
untouched and its two airborne bookkeeping writes are preserved on both arms.
AP-131 does not retire; #276 does not close.
Proof obligation 1: ParkCollisionResidents' overlap throw stays unreachable —
the teleport arm adds packets to the same TryBeginExclusiveAuthoredPlacement
one-operation-per-key machinery the far arm uses, opens no new operation shape,
and every DeferredCell outcome cancels synchronously with
restoreCancelledPark: true. The guarded property remains
HasOldPrefixPlacementDebt's stall, not a throw (4b-1's B2 caveat stands).
Correction to an earlier claim: LiveEntityPresentationController's
_activePlacementOwners was NOT write-never at HEAD —
remotePlacementRequired -> BeginPlacement -> Begin -> BeginAuthoritativePlacement
was a live writer chain. It becomes write-never BECAUSE this slice deletes that
chain, which is why deleting the dead half is behaviour-preserving.
Probe: ACDREAM_PROBE_REMOTE_TELEPORT=1 emits one [remote-teleport] line per
routed arm (guid, cause, hook-ran, placement status). TEMPORARY, strip with the
probe family.
Carried, disclosed not fixed: no dedicated bidirectional collision-partner test
for R2 (the wiring, not LeaveWorld itself, is what lacks coverage); the
stress test's teleport step drives hand-written field assignments rather than
the canonical arm; the per-packet runTeleportHook closure allocation (network
path, not the resolve path Slice I's 0 B discipline governs — file before
route 5 adds a fourth call site). B2: IRuntimeCollisionReportObserver has zero
production implementations, so retail's bidirectional DoCollisionEnd half still
reaches no gameplay consumer — this fix closes the wrong-function binding, not
that nobody listens.
Complete Release suite MEASURED at 11,013 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed
(baseline 11,027/4/0; net -14 = ~33 deleted test cases against ~19 added).
Neither known flake fired (#302 PortalProjectionTests GC-allocation, #308
NakEmissionTests wall-clock).
STILL OWED: the two-client connected gate, which MUST use an NPC/creature
teleport target. Both round-1 MAJORs lived on the NPC arm and the velocity
cycle early-returns for 0x50xxxxxx guids, so a player target structurally
cannot observe A1, A2, or R3.

Regression from 7f1c1f5a (C4 route 4b-2). A remote player who recalled in,
arrived, and stood still was permanently absent from the world render AND the
radar while remaining fully simulated — 71 healthy physics ticks with contact
and walkable, interpolation enqueues, equipment attached, chat visible.
Route 4b-2 is the first commit that lets an ordinary remote UpdatePosition open
a canonical SetPosition. A park publishes a synchronous Withdraw that tears down
presentation registrations; only TryPublishPlace restores them.
RestoreParkWithdrawal — added in the same slice — restores InWorld, the object
clock, and canonical residency, i.e. the Runtime half only. Eight Opus reviews
verified those three fields and the tests asserted exactly them, so the suite
stayed green while the entity was invisible.
Why it is intermittent: the presentation half IS restored incidentally by the
per-packet prologue rebucket for a MOVING remote. It only sticks when the
entity parks on its FINAL accepted Position and then goes idle, because ACE
stops broadcasting for a stationary entity, so no later packet arrives to
re-publish it and nothing else re-drives.
The fix publishes a RuntimePlacementProjectionKind.WithdrawalRestored receipt on
the one ordered placement stream, acknowledge-only in Runtime (the parked
operation is already retired by CancelCoreDeferred), which the App sink maps to
the exact inverse of its own TryPublishWithdrawal: the projection half (bucket,
IsSpatiallyProjected, IsSpatiallyVisible, spatial indexes, RefreshPresentation)
plus the publish half (_worldState, _worldEvents, _effectPoses,
_localPlayerShadow, visibility sinks). Applied with commitPose: false, because
the withdrawal never moved the sidecar; a test feeds a deliberately wrong
position to pin that.
Two alternatives were refuted on measurement, not preference. Routing the
restore's SetFullCell through CommitCanonicalCell cannot fire on the shipped
remote path at all — the prologue rebucket has already recommitted a non-zero
FullCellId before the merge cancels the park, so no cell edge remains — and it
never touches the publish half regardless. Extending RestoreParkWithdrawal
directly reduces to the same receipt, since Runtime must not reach behind the
host sink.
Gated on the entity ending the rollback canonically whole (FullCellId != 0 &&
InWorld) rather than on residencyRestored, which is false on the shipped remote
path and would have made the fix a no-op. AP-136's quiescing-prefix refusal arm
is preserved: no receipt, entity stays withdrawn.
Corrects my own framing of the defect: _worldState/_worldEvents/_effectPoses are
lost but are NOT what kills render and radar (_worldState is the plugin
IGameState; _effectPoses is the pose registry, not entity.MeshRefs). The
load-bearing casualties are the visibility sinks and the
IsSpatiallyProjected/IsSpatiallyVisible + bucket removal that gates the radar.
Register: AD-63 filed (selection deliberately not restored — user intent),
AP-136 amended (its "restored visible" claim covered only the canonical half;
the gap was a defect, not a divergence). ShadowObjectRegistry.Suspend stays
out of scope per AP-136.
Seven-revert discrimination table including one that proves the test is not
merely re-checking the bucket. Suite 11,023 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed.
Live gate is user-run and folds into #309: two clients, ACDREAM_PROBE_PARK=1,
recall a remote in and let it stand still; acceptance is
[park-restore] ... presentation=True for that guid plus a visible model and a
radar blip.

Closes#283 (plan S3) - as UNREACHABLE, not by restructuring ownership.
acdream has two owners that convert a landblock-local network origin into the
streamed world frame: LiveWorldOriginState for presentation/streaming, and
RuntimePhysicsState.TryGetWorldFrameOffset for placement. They rebase on
different edges - Runtime the instant an accepted Position carries
TeleportAdvanced, App only once StreamingOriginRecenterCoordinator observes
old-window retirement completion, many frames later. A one-landblock
disagreement places an entity 192 m from the geometry around it: the same
failure family as the zero-offset bug 670f307c fixed, with a wrong origin
instead of a missing one.
The plan's first step was to prove or disprove reachability BEFORE moving
ownership, because a restructure on a hypothesis is churn. The probe added in
898ff18b answered it: a connected Release session recorded ZERO disagreements
across 11 completed reveals and six destination landblocks (0x0904, 0x1134,
0x3032, 0x8763, 0xA9B4, 0xF682) spanning roughly 45 km. A gap of even one
frame would have printed an offset in the tens of thousands of metres.
Cause of the safety: BeginOriginRecenter detaches EVERY resident landblock
before the new origin is adopted, so the two rebases are serialized and no
conversion can observe the gap. Ownership is therefore left exactly as it is.
What lands instead is the invariant that keeps it true.
LiveWorldOriginState.EnsureAgreesWithRuntimeFrame is checked at the
landblock->world conversion and is terminal on disagreement, converting a
silent 192 m-multiple misplacement into a loud failure with the offset in
metres and the landblock being projected. Six focused tests pin it, including
the cross-world portal case (0x09 -> 0xF6 = 45,504 m). Disagreement can no
longer reach the probe, so ACDREAM_PROBE_WORLD_FRAME now emits a verbose
per-conversion agreement trace - useful when a placement looks displaced for
some reason OTHER than a frame disagreement.
Complete Release solution: 10,844 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed.

Fixes#282 (plan S2). Adds register row AP-133.
Retail gives a CPhysicsObj exactly ONE cell: ShouldDrawParticles @0x0050fe60
reads this->cell and calls IsInView on it, and set_cell_id @0x0050f4f0 /
change_cell @0x00513390 are the only things that move it. acdream splits that
into ParentCellId (render parent, deliberately null for outdoor dat stabs) and
EffectCellId (the authored landcell those parentless stabs still need) - an
adaptation, now recorded as AP-133.
WorldEntity.EffectCellId documents itself as the stab field, with live and
interior entities using ParentCellId. f24532ad began writing it for live
entities too. Because EntityEffectPoseRegistry resolved EffectCellId FIRST,
that write won - and the audit shows only 3 of 14 cell writers maintain it.
The other 11 do not, including the hottest paths: RemotePhysicsUpdater:239,294
and LiveEntityOrdinaryPhysicsUpdater:107 write ParentCellId every physics tick
from the snapshot, and LocalPlayerProjectionController:79 writes the local
player's cell every frame.
So a moving entity updated its cell constantly while EffectCellId stayed
frozen at whatever cell it materialized in. Its particles and lights kept
being tested against that stale cell and failed IsInView the moment it crossed
a boundary - effects vanishing on a monster that is plainly visible, or
drawing through a wall from a room the viewer cannot see.
The consumers had also drifted into disagreeing: EntityEffectPoseRegistry
preferred EffectCellId while WbDrawDispatcher.TryGetEntityCell and the remote
spawn seed preferred ParentCellId - two answers to "which cell is this in".
- WorldEntity.VisibilityCellId (ParentCellId ?? EffectCellId) is the single
accessor; all five consumer sites resolve through it, so the precedence
cannot drift apart again.
- LiveEntityRuntime's three live-entity EffectCellId writes are removed,
restoring the field to its documented purpose. Its real writers -
LandblockLoader:80,97 and LandblockBuildFactory:408 - are untouched, and the
parentless-stab path is pinned by a new test.
- f24532ad's actual fix is preserved: RebucketLiveEntity still installs the
committed cell, just on the one field live entities use.
LiveEntityLightControllerTests.Refresh_FollowsCurrentTopLevelRootAndCell is
back to moving the entity by ParentCellId alone - its original pre-f24532ad
form - and passes. CanonicalOnlyRebucket_DoesNotOverwriteAuthoritativeFullCell
had its two EffectCellId assertions (added by f24532ad, encoding the defect)
replaced with the corrected contract: ParentCellId set, EffectCellId null,
VisibilityCellId resolving - a stronger assertion, not a relaxed one.
Complete Release solution: 10,836 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed.
User visual check still outstanding: a monster with an active spell effect
crossing a cell boundary, and a lit static object, indoors and outdoors.

670f307c made remote first-entry placement resolve its landblock-local
CreateObject origin through Runtime's world frame
(RuntimeSetPositionState.PrepareMover:1526-1544) and return
RetrySetupUnavailable until that frame exists. Only the accepted local-player
Create publishes it (RuntimeEntityObjectLifetime.RegisterEntityCore:558-570 ->
RuntimePhysicsState.ObserveLocalWorldFrame).
Fixtures that drive remote conductors in a world with no local player - a
state production never occupies, since the player's own Create always precedes
broadcast Creates - therefore parked forever on RetrySetupUnavailable. Their
initial-create residences never retired, which cascaded into rejected
appearance updates, missing canonical bodies, unconverged ownership ledgers,
and a GameRuntime teardown that could not complete stage 10.
The measured blast radius was far larger than the handoff recorded. It claimed
"six selected fixture failures"; a baseline run found 43. The App suite was
fully green at 01f4791e and 670f307c broke 28 tests at once; the Runtime suite
lost 13, twelve of them in RuntimeRemoteFirstEntryStateTests - the exact
conductor that commit gated. Both commits were verified on focused runs only.
The production gate is correct, so nothing here weakens it. It matches App's
own coordinate owner: LiveWorldOriginState is initialized once from the local
player's spawn (LiveEntityHydrationPorts.cs:226) and rebased only by
StreamingOriginRecenterCoordinator.Advance at a teleport boundary - exactly
ObserveLocalWorldFrame's semantics. Every fixture is repaired by supplying the
missing precondition beside the resident landblock it already models, and not
one expected value or assertion was changed.
The mechanism shipped with zero tests. RuntimeWorldFrameTests now pins its
contract: the local player publishes the frame, remotes never do, neighbouring
landblocks convert at 192 m per step, ordinary movement across a landblock
boundary must NOT rebase it, an accepted teleport must, and a zero cell id
neither publishes nor resolves. That "no rebase on ordinary movement" rule is
load-bearing - if it and LiveWorldOriginState ever disagree, remote objects
are placed a multiple of 192 m from where the world is streamed.
Runtime 1,009/1,009; App 4,048 passed / 3 skipped.

C3c created graphical effect, projectile, and static-animation sidecars before Runtime finished the entity's first SetPosition. One-shot F754/F755 packets could be discarded, projectiles could adopt a cell-less body, and animated statics could compete for body ownership. Keep effects behind an exact-incarnation presentation barrier, retry projectile/static binding on the committed visibility edge, and keep effect cells synchronized with canonical rebuckets. User verified spell, recall, arrow, projectile, portal, and static presentation; 90 focused App tests and the Release build pass.
Campaign P remaining-physics-divergence, placement cutover slice C3c
(docs/plans/2026-08-02-placement-cutover.md). Both production hosts now
register every initial Create through the residence + continuation-
executor + first-entry-conductor machinery (C0-C3b):
- Graphical (route 1): RegisterEntityWithInitialResidence at Create; the
shared RuntimeFirstEntryDriveController pumps both conductors from the
placement-receipt flow; MaterializeProjection and RebucketLiveEntity
are presentation-only while a residence is ACTIVE (ExecutorCompleted is
the presentation-binding receipt); post-residence entities take the
full legacy path including the prepare_to_enter_world clock edges.
PlayerModeController attaches presentation to the Runtime-published
controller; its legacy resolve/step-heights/host-construction path is
deleted; presentation-only rollback (retail has no entry-flow rollback).
- Headless (route 8): OnSpawned registers with residence when a drive
exists; content-less sessions keep the pre-flip direct registration;
SynchronizeLocalPlayer/CreateController/ApplySetupStepHeights deleted;
prepared-collision read failure is a typed AwaitingCollisionSource
retry; far remotes outside the service window complete celless.
- RuntimeLocalPlayerMovementState.Controller setter sealed internal; all
controller mutation flows through the publication lifecycle.
Fix slices landed within this cutover, each dual-gated:
- F1: live movement-stat/server-physics application routed through the
Runtime ownership seam (post-logout ingest crash on the retired
controller eliminated; RuntimeMovementSkillProjection deleted).
- F2: login activation wedge - collision-admission prefix gate factored
out of the seal (reentrant-commit RejectedAuthority), rearm generation
identity corrected, PlayerModeAutoEntry requires the Runtime-published
controller (world reveal can no longer seal unmaterialized).
- F3: landblock-prefix 0-sentinel replaced by explicit absent-id guards;
map-corner landblocks (grid row/col 0) fully legal through admission,
park/rearm/retire, quiescence, and outdoor shadow seeds.
- F5: local-player first-entry ground contact seeded by the shared
SpawnPlacementSettler (moved App->Core) at FinalizeActivation - the
retail first-gravity-frame touch (enter_world 0x00516170 carries no
seed); the legacy unconditional force-seed is overwritten by a real
floor-found contact; airborne spawns stay airborne; outbound contact
bit verified end-to-end. Fixes the standing-cast 'You can't do that
while in the air!' rejections.
- R1 (dual-review round): login constraint leash armed at the committed
placement (HandleReceivedPosition 0x00453FD0 analog); register rows
AD-61 (settle-timing compression now covering the local player) and
AD-42 (repointed off the deleted resolve split) in this commit;
residence-conversion owner API; wire-landblock guards; drive-pending
ledger in IsConverged; route attach/detach latch; executor-drain drift
model documented + source-pinned.
Gates: Runtime 1,003, App 4,039/3 skips, Headless 79, complete solution
10,816/0 failed/4 skips (Release, -m:1); connected lifecycle/reconnect
gate PASS (logs/connected-world-gate-20260802-175401; graceful exits,
world-visible, zero airborne rejections). The nine-stop soak remains red
for the pre-existing 6b28ff99 whole-world collision-clone throughput
regression (attributed with evidence; scheduled as its own slice before
C5). Dual Opus reviews (retail-conformance + adversarial): delta PASS.

Cutover slice C0 (docs/plans/2026-08-02-placement-cutover.md): the seam
work that lets C3 flip hosts onto a complete receipt stream instead of
growing one mid-cutover. The executor's Released exit now publishes an
acknowledge-only ExecutorCompleted receipt through the one placement
projection stream — registered before observer dispatch, correlated to
the full execution receipt, reaped exactly once on acknowledgement/
discard/session-clear, and counted in the convergence ledger. All three
production placement sinks acknowledge-and-ignore the new kind via early
returns proven behavior-preserving for every existing kind; without them
the first such receipt at cutover would permanently wedge the exact-head
FIFO behind sinks that return false. Provably inert today: the publisher
has no production caller.
Execute's live inputs now derive from Runtime's own owners bound at
GameRuntime construction: UsePositionFromServer is retail's exact
autonomy_level != 2 (CommandInterpreter::UsePositionFromServer
0x006B3B40, startup-only knob), and PlayerDistance uses the live movement
controller's position with a null-safe fallback to the caller struct —
never a fabricated origin. TryPrepareAndSubmitAuthoredPlacement chains
the prepared-collision Setup read through PrepareMover to submission with
zero validation-semantics changes. TryCommitParent and CommitWithdrawal
gain the sibling cancellation flow (residence + ordinary placement
family); TryCommitParent deliberately omits LeaveWorld — retail's
set_parent performs its single gated leave_world (0x00515A90) and a
second would have no counterpart.
Not fully dormant: the two cancellation fixes change Runtime paths
production already calls (today as no-op-adjacent hardening, since
nothing upstream begins a residence yet); everything else is reachable
only by tests. Reviewed: retail-conformance PASS + architecture/
adversarial PASS after one fix round (sink wedge, completion-receipt
lifecycle, null-controller distance). Runtime 921/921; complete Release
solution 10,716 passed / 4 intentional skips.

The first commit converted the four members the issue named and left the other
sites alone, reasoning that none had been observed failing. A 20-run
complete-solution baseline disproved that within minutes:
run 2 LiveEntityRuntimeTests.AnimationView_HotSpatialTraversal…
run 14 StaticRenderProjectionJournalTests.ActiveAnimatedSynchronization…
run 18 StaticRenderProjectionJournalTests.ActiveAnimatedSynchronization…
run 19 CurrentRenderSceneOracleTests.SurfaceOverrideFingerprint…
Both new names are the same shape as the four — one warm call, then a
thousand-iteration loop inside the measured window — and neither had been
recorded anywhere. "Not observed failing" only ever meant "not yet observed",
and leaving known-shape sites in place would have guaranteed the acceptance gate
failed. Run 19 is the sharper lesson: the issue named
`SurfaceOverrideFingerprint_DictionaryHotPathAllocatesNothing`, and the first
commit converted a *different* test in that same file, so the actually-named
member was still on the old shape. Matching by file was not matching by test.
Every strict-zero site in the assembly is now on the probe — ten tests. Two came
out stricter rather than merely steadier:
`StaticRenderProjectionJournalTests` was measuring a synchronise whose journal
does **not** coalesce. Repeating it grew the journal by 1,000 entries per call —
192,000 by the end of a probe run — so the steady state the test claimed to
measure did not exist and the single-call window had been hiding it. Its step is
now the whole frame cycle, synchronise *and* drain, which puts `DrainTo` inside
the measured window for the first time and asserts the journal ends empty.
`RetailInboundEventDispatcherTests` asserted a hard-coded 1,001 callbacks. It
now counts its own dispatches and pins the callback count against that, so the
assertion still proves the fast path ran the callback every time without being
coupled to a loop bound that no longer exists.
Left alone deliberately: the four sites asserting a tolerance rather than zero —
`CellViewDedupTests` and `PortalProjectionTests`. Their ceilings already absorb
this noise and none has flaked; changing a bound in either direction is a
separate decision from fixing a measurement. Worth noting that
`PortalProjectionTests`' ceiling exists explicitly to tolerate "a
tiered-JIT/ArrayPool bookkeeping transition ... to the first measured batch",
which is exactly what the probe removes, so it could probably be tightened to
zero now — recorded in the issue rather than done here.
Solution build 0 warnings / 0 errors; App suite 3,941 passed / 3 skipped.

The ImGui developer-tools stack (AcDream.UI.ImGui), UI Studio
(src/AcDream.App/Studio), and the DevToolsFramePresenter/
SettingsDevToolsCompositionPhase ImGui composition machinery are removed.
Vulkan never composed a DevTools frontend (DevToolsEnabled already forced
false whenever the backend was Vulkan); this commit makes that permanent by
deleting the only implementation rather than leaving a dead branch behind.
What moved: Studio/SampleData.cs is a live production dependency
(InteractionRetainedUiComposition's character-sheet fallback, plus three
UI.Layout test files) - git mv'd to src/AcDream.App/UI/Layout/SampleData.cs,
namespace AcDream.App.UI.Layout, and trimmed to the SampleCharacter API that
is actually still called (BuildObjectTable/AddItem/AddEquipped/the item-guid
and icon constants had zero callers left once the Studio fixture provider
that used them was deleted).
What survives as backend-neutral seams, per the tests that still exercise
them: IDevToolsFrameLifecycle (moved into RenderFramePreparationController.cs,
now always bound to null), IFramebufferDevToolsTarget/FramebufferDevToolsBinding
in FramebufferResizeController.cs (its concrete DevToolsFramebufferTarget
adapter is deleted), and IDevToolsGameplayCommands in
GameplayInputCommandController.cs (DevToolsGameplayCommands becomes a
documented no-op instead of forwarding to the deleted presenter). A follow-up
re-homes Settings/Debug onto the retained UI through IPanelRenderer; until
then keybind remapping falls back to editing keybinds.json.
DevToolsEnabled is now `private const bool DevToolsEnabled = false`.
RuntimeOptions.DevTools is unchanged and still reaches VulkanGraphicsContext
for the optional debug-utils extensions; Program.cs now logs one line when
ACDREAM_DEVTOOLS=1 explaining that the ImGui UI is gone and the flag is
Vulkan-only now.
Removed: AcDream.UI.ImGui (project + ImGui.NET/Silk.NET.OpenGL.Extensions.ImGui
package refs), src/AcDream.App/Studio (minus SampleData.cs),
DevToolsFramePresenter.cs and everything only it constructed
(ISettingsDevToolsCompositionFactory, RetailSettingsDevToolsCompositionFactory,
DevToolsCompositionOwner, IGameWindowSettingsDevToolsPublication,
SettingsDevToolsOptionalDependencies, the "developer tools" shutdown-ledger
stage and its DevTools-typed fields on IngressShutdownRoots/
RenderShutdownRoots), the ui-studio Program.cs verb, and the cimgui native
manifest entries in GraphicalHostPlatformServices. GameWindow.cs's DevTools
composition branch, its _vitalsVm/_debugVm/_devToolsComposition/
_devToolsFramePresenter/_devToolsCommandBus fields, and every settingsDevTools
.DevTools?.* access across FrameRootComposition.cs/SessionPlayerComposition.cs
are gone with it.
Build green; complete Release solution suite 8,830 / 5 skips (App Tests
4,097/3 skips run standalone - one #250-family zero-allocation test flakes
under the full parallel `dotnet test AcDream.slnx` run, a pre-existing,
documented class unrelated to this change).

Make every App composition phase borrow one GameRuntime, retire the duplicate view/event adapters, and dispose the root only after its graphical borrowers release. This preserves synchronous UI commands while giving shutdown one exact ownership ledger.

Move remote-motion construction, CreateObject vector initialization, final simulation-component retirement, and the combined J5 ownership ledger into Runtime. Delete App compatibility views and moved-state reconstruction while preserving the existing graphical projection and retail update order.
Move projectile component identity, prediction invalidation, spatial worksets, authoritative corrections, and the retail physics step into AcDream.Runtime. Keep App as the DAT-shape and presentation adapter so ACE outcomes and visible behavior remain unchanged.
Move the sole PhysicsEngine, production cache, collision admissions, canonical bodies and hosts, remote components, ordinary/remote worksets, simulation, cell commits, and shadow synchronization under RuntimeEntityObjectLifetime. Keep App as the prepared-asset, animation-input, and render-projection adapter while preserving the named-retail update and collision order.
Add exact-incarnation, object-clock, callback-reentrancy, GUID-reuse, two-runtime isolation, source ownership, collision publication, and graphical projection coverage. Release build and the complete 8,588-test solution pass.

Move the canonical local movement controller, body/motion managers, object clock, movement wire data, and MTS/jump/AP sender into AcDream.Runtime. Replace process skill defaults with typed Runtime character options, make graphical and direct commands borrow one autorun owner, retain the construction-time PartArray seam, and include movement in terminal ownership convergence.
Preserve the accepted pre-inbound movement/jump and post-inbound autonomous-position order while moving the exact packet/cadence fixtures into Runtime tests. Add graphical/direct parity, two-instance isolation, teardown, allocation, architecture, and divergence-path coverage.

Retain exact teardown receipts before terminal callbacks, preserve ordered re-entrant entity/object publication, publish committed facts across projection failures, and make direct disposal converge every canonical owner. Add a complete ownership ledger plus adversarial direct/graphical parity, callback, GUID reuse, reset, and resource-churn gates.

Issue stable Runtime identities at canonical registration, publish entity and inventory commits through one generation-stamped synchronous stream, and make graphical adapters borrow the same direct views and events as a no-window host. Preserve exact projection teardown and retail mutation order while removing App-side event reconstruction.
Make the hard-recenter ordering fixture independent of the production two-millisecond frame budget so its injected-failure gate is deterministic.

Introduce one presentation-free RuntimeEntityObjectLifetime for the exact entity directory and ClientObjectTable. Make GameWindow, graphical projections, retained UI, interaction, session routing, create/delete integration, and reset borrow that owner while preserving synchronous retail ordering, dormant retention, and retry semantics.

Introduce the presentation-free RuntimeEntityDirectory and RuntimeEntityRecord as the sole owners of server GUIDs, INSTANCE_TS incarnations, accepted snapshots, authority versions, retryable tombstones, session epochs, and local-ID allocation. Convert LiveEntityRuntime into an App projection sidecar host resolved through canonical record identity without a second GUID map.
Preserve the existing synchronous and reentrant projection lifecycle, including retryable registration/delete/session teardown. Add Runtime-only identity/lifetime tests and App ownership guards.

Detach old-world spatial ownership atomically, prioritize destination retirement dependencies, and reveal the viewport at the retail transition edge. Give private paperdoll views independent mesh ownership and retain dormant ACE entities so portal revisits preserve server objects without extending active GPU lifetimes.
Inbound state continues while portal reveal blocks ordinary world simulation. Synchronize only the derived render projection after those hidden-frame network and command phases so the first revealed draw cannot observe a stale live transform, without advancing effects, particles, attachments, or lights.
Move the ordinary shadow-scene drain out of the conditional spatial reconciler and into an explicit final update-frame commit phase. This publishes deltas after streaming, network, teleport, camera, and conditional reconciles even while world simulation is quiesced.
Release gate: 3,733 App tests / 3 skips; 8,217 complete-solution tests / 5 skips.

Publish the retail blocking-for-cells edge before deferred recenter work, freeze old-world presentation/simulation/audio, and advance full-window retirement from exact metered entity and owner cursors. This removes synchronous portal teardown without allowing retained owners to remain observable.
Preserve prepublication local motion completion, require the PartArray enter-world lifecycle port, and balance deferred Use busy ownership across dispatch and cancellation. Reconcile the completed GameWindow connected gates and add regression coverage.

Move the complete update/render construction graph into a typed Phase-8 owner, explicitly carry the content dependencies it consumes, and publish both roots through one exact lease. Extract lifecycle resource sampling and frame-owned late bindings so partial startup and shutdown withdraw the same generation without window callbacks.
