DecodeSolidColor dereferenced it (color.Alpha) and threw NullReferenceException.
It is called directly from TextureCache.DecodeFromDats, OUTSIDE
DecodeRenderSurface's try/catch, so the NRE crashed the whole client. Surfaced

The instrumented capture (cottage-112-capture1.log) + dat replay pinned
the transparent-cottage mechanism end to end:
1. The A9B3 cottage's entry cell 0x104 is a 0.22 m-wide THRESHOLD band
(x 184.68->184.46 at y~82). A running player (~13-16 cm/tick at
30 Hz) can cross it BETWEEN two physics ticks - the tick where the
centre is inside 0x104 never happens.
2. Our outdoor-seed branch ran CheckBuildingTransit over a landcell
snapshot and STOPPED - building-admitted entry cells were never
expanded. The tick after the skip (centre in 0x100, a deep room not
building-portal-adjacent) found no containing candidate -> the pick
kept the outdoor landcell FOREVER (absorbing): the user walked the
whole interior classified outdoor (render faithfully drew an outdoor
frame = transparent walls), promoting only on touching
portal-adjacent 0x102's own volume minutes later (captured:
0xA9B3003C -> 0xA9B30102 with no transitions in between).
3. Retail cannot strand: CObjCell::find_cell_list (0x0052b4e0) runs ONE
growing-array walk for EVERY seed (0052b576-0052b5ab,
cells[i]->find_transit_cells vtable dispatch over the GROWING array)
- the landcell's building bridge admits 0x104 (the foot sphere still
overlaps the band one tick after the skip) and the walk expands
0x104's portals to 0x100 where containment wins. Recovery fires one
tick after any skip.
Fix: BuildCellSetAndPickContaining now runs retail's single growing
walk for both seeds with per-cell-type dispatch (landcells ->
CLandCell::find_transit_cells 0x00533800 -> CSortCell 0x00534060 ->
check_building_transit 0x0052c5d0; envcells -> FindTransitCellsSphere
with the straddle gate + once-per-walk outside add). The old indoor
branch behavior is preserved (seed at index 0, hysteresis, straddle-
gated outdoor pick); the outdoor branch gains the expansion + the
indoor branch gains the retail landcell bridge dispatch for
straddle-admitted landcells.
Pins (dat-backed, Issue112MembershipTests): tick-skip recovery one tick
past the threshold (RED pre-fix); run-speed entry replay across tick
phases never strands outdoor; threshold-gap outdoor-seed keeps outdoor
(over-fix guard); entry-walk replay diagnostic prints the full
promotion chain (0x3C -> 0x104 -> 0x100 -> 0x103 -> 0x100 -> 0x102).

The 1ca412d part-offset expansion fixed the staircase but still rested
on the 5 m promise one level down: a SINGLE part whose mesh extends
more than 5 m from its own origin (offset 0 -> box +-5 m) keeps the
gaze-dependent vanish. Per the user's mandate ("it must work for every
case"), the bound now derives from the dat VERTEX data - the same
vertices that get drawn - so no synthetic containment promise remains.
Oracle context (read this session): retail has NO whole-entity
visibility volume - CPhysicsPart::Draw (0x0050d7a0) viewcone-checks
each part's dat-authored CGfxObj.drawing_sphere at the part's own
world position (RenderDeviceD3D::DrawMesh 0x005a0860). Retail's bound
IS data; ours was a promise. Our per-ENTITY granularity stays (a
deliberate batching-era choice, WB-owned per the inventory) but the
volume is now data-derived and conservative: visually identical by
construction, never culls what retail would draw.
- GfxObjBounds: per-GfxObj vertex AABB, cached by id (parts repeat
heavily); LocalBoundsAccumulator: union of part-transformed AABB
corners (conservative-correct under any affine transform).
- WorldEntity.SetLocalBounds + RefreshAabb preferred path: rotate the
root-local bounds' 8 corners into world axes + DefaultAabbRadius
margin (absorbs animated-pose drift vs the rest-pose bounds; keeps
small objects at their historical box size). Offset heuristic stays
as the fallback for boundless fixtures.
- All four hydration sites wired (outdoor stabs, scenery incl. baked
scale, interior cell statics, server live spawns).
Tests: tall-single-part coverage (the case 1ca412d could not see),
rotation-following, accumulator union. Suites: App 246+1skip / Core

User re-gate after 2163308/987313a: run-from-town stairs FIXED, barrel
GONE - but the stairs still vanish by VIEWING ANGLE (visible climbing
down, gone climbing up; same at the tower top). The gate3 probe data
exonerates everything downstream: the entity always draws with correct
batches when it reaches the dispatcher (cache hit:119, restZ correct,
zero WALK-REJECTs, never clip-culled) - so the vanish lives in the one
gaze-dependent gate the probe cannot see: the bounds-based cullers.
WorldEntity.RefreshAabb was a fixed +-5 m box around the entity ANCHOR.
The staircase's 43 parts spiral 15 m ABOVE the anchor, and BOTH
visibility gates derive from the box: the dispatcher's per-entity
frustum cull AND RetailPViewRenderer.EntitySphere (the viewcone sphere
= this box's bounding sphere). Looking up the spiral put the anchor's
neighborhood out of view -> the whole entity culled while 15 m of it
stood in front of the camera; looking down kept the anchor in view ->
visible. Exactly the reported asymmetry.
Fix: expand the box by the largest MeshRef part-translation magnitude
(rotation-invariant, so entity.Rotation needs no handling; identity-
part entities get offset 0 - behavior unchanged; scenery scale is
already baked into the part transforms).

The broken-state log (user-session-capture2.log) shows meshMissing=0 /
entSeen==entDrawn WHILE broken stairs are on screen - the staircase is
DRAWN WRONG, not missing. This probe discriminates the three live
hypotheses in ONE launch (handoff 2026-06-11 s4):
- HYDRATE dump (GameWindow.BuildInteriorEntitiesForStreaming): per-part
placement-frame translations + dropped-part accounting at the MOMENT
MeshRefs are constructed. H-A (SetupMesh.Flatten identity fallback /
silent gfx-null part drops under degraded dat reads) shows here as
zero translations or built<43.
- DRAW dump (WbDrawDispatcher, first tuple per entity): live MeshRefs
translation summary + per-part loaded flags + Tier-1 classification
cache state (batch count + RestPose translation summary), re-emitted
compactly on signature change. H-B (partial/stale cached batch set)
shows as correct translations + odd batch count.
- WALK-REJECT lines (rate-limited): attributes 'entity never reaches
the draw loop' to the specific gate (visibleCellIds/frustum).
- Correct everything -> H-C (draw-side compose), instrument next.
Targets: ACDREAM_DUMP_ENTITY=0x020003F2,0x020005D8 (the 43-part spiral
staircase Setup + the wall barrels; H-A predicts the user's 'barrel' IS

The user caught the process failure: two snap fixes were written without
reading retails restore code. The named decomp settles it -
CPhysicsObj::SetPositionInternal (0x00515bd0, pc:283892-283945) treats
the supplied Position as INPUT: AdjustPosition resolves which cell
CONTAINS it, CheckPositionInternal/find_valid_position VALIDATES it
through the collision transition, and the no-cell case goes
store_position + GotoLostCell. There is NO terrain or surface
re-grounding anywhere in the restore path. Trust + validate.
Both prior shapes diverged: grounding outdoor claims to terrainZ warped
a roof-deck logout (ACEs authoritative z=127.2 on the AAB3 tower)
through the roof into the building volume -> the transparent-interior
spawn on every login; the cell-walkable scan that replaced it missed
shell-geometry decks entirely (no EnvCell owns the deck surface) and
failed silently - the user logged in transparent at the tower bottom
again.
Fix: a zero-delta outdoor restore above terrain commits the claims Z
verbatim ([snap] line says so); the first physics tick validates and
settles against the REAL collision world (the BR-7 building channel
covers the deck). max(terrain, z) stays as the under-terrain sanity
bound - our recoverable stand-in for retails lost-cell machinery
(documented divergence, same class as the #107 demote).

A zero-delta RESTORE of an outdoor claim standing far above terrain
(logged out on a building roof deck - the AAB3 tower 0x010A slab at
z=127.2 over terrain 112) was grounded to TERRAIN unconditionally,
warping the player through the roof into the building interior,
outdoor-classified -> the transparent-interior spawn the user hit on
every login while the save sat on the roof. Retail restores settle via
AdjustPosition onto real surfaces, not the heightmap.
Fix: the snap outdoor branch, zero-delta shape only, when the claim z
exceeds terrain by more than step height: ground to the nearest CELL
WALKABLE at/below the claim z (the #111 WalkableFloorZNearest query -
real floors only, never the ceiling soup), keeping the outdoor cell id
(honest: a deck-stander center sits above the slab cell BSP - the same
state the user played in all afternoon). GfxObj-shell roofs without

The two remaining flagged workarounds retired, per the BR-7 plan +
the WF1 [MEDIUM] correction (re-gate, do NOT delete the outside-add):
1. A6.P5 hasExitPortal topology widening DELETED. Outdoor cells enter the
collision cell array ONLY on the retail straddle gate - |dist| <
radius + F_EPSILON against an exterior portal plane
(CEnvCell::find_transit_cells Ghidra 0x0052c820, gate 0052c9d6,
live-binary verified) - the same flag that already gated the
membership pick (#112 rider). The widening existed so outdoor-
registered doors stayed findable from indoor cells under the old flat
registry query; with per-cell shadow lists the door is found in the
straddle-admitted outdoor cell's own list (tick-13558 pin holds).
The hasExitPortal out-param + plumbing deleted from
FindTransitCellsSphere; the AddAllOutsideCells call in
BuildCellSetAndPickContaining re-gated on exitOutsideStraddle
(once-per-walk = retail CELLARRAY.added_outside).
2. #90 ResolveCellId sphere-overlap stickiness REMOVED (the 4ca3596
workaround, deferred-to-A6.P4 in the physics digest). It was dead
code: the method's only caller is FindEnvCollisions' cache-null TEST
fallback, and the indoor branch (where the stickiness lived) required
a non-null DataCache. Production membership flows exclusively through
the collide-then-pick advance whose ordered-array hysteresis (current
cell at index 0, interior-wins-break) is the retail mechanism the
workaround approximated. ResolveCellId reduced to the bare
prefix-preserving outdoor re-derive, documented test-only.
Test updates (pins of the deleted behaviors inverted to retail):
- A6P5_BuildCellSetFromIndoorStart_ReachesDoorOutdoorCell (asserted the
topology widening verbatim) -> DeepInteriorSphere_NoStraddle_
AddsNoOutdoorCells: a deep-interior sphere admits NO outdoor cells.
- A6P5_BuildCellSetFromAlcove... -> AlcoveSphere_StraddlesExitPortal_
ReachesDoorOutdoorCell (the captured alcove position genuinely
straddles - the retail-positive half).
- Issue112MembershipTests straddle pin + the second-sphere straddle test
updated to the single-flag signature.

The A6.P4 port, fused into one installment per the BR-2 half-port lesson
(registration and query are co-dependent: flood-registering shells under
the old radial query would re-open #98 through the vestibule).
REGISTRATION (ShadowObjectRegistry rewritten):
- Register/RegisterMultiPart/UpdatePosition compute the cell set via
CellTransit.BuildShadowCellSet (the C2 find_cell_list flood) seeded by
the entity's m_position cell id; the private 24m XY-grid rectangle and
its single-landblock clamp are deleted. Flood spheres follow retail's
CylSphere rule (base point + cyl radius, cap 10; BSP bounding-sphere
fallback - Ghidra 0x0052b9f0). Statics flood with the do_not_load
prune; dynamics (server spawns, isStatic:false) without.
- Keep-when-empty (SetPositionInternal num_cells gate, pc:283540): a
failed flood leaves the previous registration in place.
- RefloodLandblock: streaming-race hook re-runs the flood when a
landblock's cells hydrate (retail init_objects -> recalc_cross_cells,
Ghidra 0x0052b420/0x00515a30); wired at GameWindow's hydration tail.
- GameWindow sites pass the server position's full cell id as the seed
(spawn + UpdatePosition); the five static sites pass ParentCellId.
BUILDING CHANNEL (CSortCell.building shape):
- Building SHELLS are not shadow objects in retail (only caller of
find_building_collisions is CSortCell::find_collisions 0x005340aa;
one building per origin landcell, init_buildings 0x0052fd80 verified
verbatim + ACE cross-ref). IsBuildingShell entities skip the registry;
Transition.FindBuildingCollisions runs the shell part-0 BSP off
cache.GetBuilding(cellId) with bldg_check set around it
(find_building_collisions 0x006b5300), CollidedWithEnvironment on
non-Contact non-OK. BuildingPhysics.ModelId = pre-resolved part-0
GfxObj (0x02 Setups resolved at the CacheBuilding site).
- Placement/ethereal weakening: BSPQuery Path 1 passes center_solid=0
when BldgCheck && HitsInteriorCell (BSPTREE::find_collisions 0x0053a82e
+ placement_insert 0x005399d8) so doorway crossings don't hard-fail
against shell solids. SpherePath gains both retail fields;
HitsInteriorCell is rebuilt at every cell-array build
(build_cell_array reset 0x00509ef2 + find_cell_list/check_building_
transit set sites).
QUERY (retail per-cell order, transitional_insert 0x0050b6f0):
- TransitionalInsert per attempt: env -> building (LandCell only) ->
objects on the PRIMARY cell, then on OK the check_other_cells pass
(env -> building -> objects per OTHER overlapped cell) + the
carried-cell advance - the advance now happens AFTER all per-cell
object passes (the WF1 ordering divergence), with Adjusted/Slid
feeding the retry exactly like retail's OK_TS case.
- FindObjCollisionsInCell = CObjCell::find_obj_collisions (0x0052b750):
iterate ONLY the asked cell's list. DELETED: the radial 9-landblock
sweep, the +5m query pad, the b3ce505 indoor-primary gate, and the
isViewer exemption (the camera is bounded by interior cell-BSP env
collision - retail's own channel; CameraCornerSealReplayTests pins it
against real dat, and the new building-channel camera test pins the
outdoor stop).
TESTS: Core 1416/0/2 (was 1398 + 4 pre-existing #99-era fails + 1 skip),
App 225, UI 420, Net 294 - all green.
- 3 of the 4 #99-era reds flipped green as designed: the door apparatus
(Apparatus_Grounded_50cmOffCenter_FrontApproach_Blocks) and tick-13558
(indoor walkthrough) now assert the door BLOCKS; tick-22760 pins the
outdoor blocking invariant.
- The 4th (BSPStepUp D4) + 22760's lateral-slide delta are NOT cell-set
problems (probes prove the door is found + BSP-only dispatched;
BR-7 left both byte-identical) - filed as issue #116 (slide-response
family), D4 skipped with the issue reference.
- FindEnvCollisionsMultiCellTests migrated to the public entry (the A4
multi-cell halt now lives at the retail call site).
- New registry pins: per-cell query surface, outdoor-footprint-never-
indoor (#98 architectural), door-outdoor-cell membership, reflood.
- CameraCollisionIndoorTests rewritten against the building channel
(the isViewer-exemption pins died with the exemption).
Closes#99 (doors block both ways via registration-time cell membership
+ the straddle-spanning player cell array). #97 likely closed (the +5m
radial pad that produced phantom-collision candidates is gone) - verify
at T5. #98 stays closed ARCHITECTURALLY (outdoor footprints structurally
cannot reach interior cells; the cellar harness stays green).

Verbatim port of CObjCell::find_cell_list (Ghidra 0x0052b4e0, pc:308742)
as invoked by calc_cross_cells / calc_cross_cells_static (0x00515230 /
0x00515160) - the flood retail runs at SHADOW REGISTRATION time, minus
the containing-cell pick (registration passes a null out-cell):
- Seed: indoor -> exactly that one cell (added even when unloaded, like
retail's null-pointer add_cell; the walk is then skipped per the
0052b576 seed-pointer gate); outdoor -> block-crossing
AddAllOutsideCells.
- Growing-array walk: indoor cells via FindTransitCellsSphere
(sphere-vs-neighbor-BSP admission; exterior straddle -> outside cells
once per walk, retail CELLARRAY.added_outside); outdoor cells via the
CLandCell leg (0x00533800) = add_all_outside_cells (same once-guard)
+ the building bridge CSortCell -> CBuildingObj ->
check_building_transit (0x00534060/0x006b5230/0x0052c5d0) - how an
outdoor-positioned door reaches the vestibule's shadow list at
registration. No XY grid, no visibility lists (the spec's
VisibleCellIds rule was REFUTED by the WF1 verification).
- Static prune (do_not_load_cells, 0052b66e): indoor-seeded statics keep
only {seed} + seed.stab_list (VisibleCellIds) - also strips outdoor
cells, matching retail (interior statics never shadow into landcells;
outdoor spheres reach them through their own array's building bridge).
11 unit tests: seeds (indoor/outdoor/unloaded), neighbor-BSP admission,
building bridge incl. the C1 negative-portal-id gate, exterior straddle
on/off, static prune drop/keep, zero-sphere no-op.
Consumed by C3 (ShadowObjectRegistry rewrite).

Retail CEnvCell::check_building_transit (Ghidra 0x0052c5d0) opens with
`if (other_portal_id >= 0)` on the SIGNED sign-extended portal id
(CBldPortal.other_portal_id is int, acclient.h:32098). Our BldPortalInfo
carried the dat reader's raw ushort and CheckBuildingTransit had no gate
at all, so a portal whose dat value is 0xFFFF (-1, "no reciprocal
portal") could admit its interior cell. BN's pseudo-C renders the
comparison unsigned - the sign-extension is Ghidra-proven (BR-7 verified
corrections, wf1-interior-collision.md).
- BldPortalInfo.OtherPortalId: ushort -> short; GameWindow construction
reinterprets the dat ushort via unchecked((short)).
- CheckBuildingTransit: negative-id portals rejected before any sphere
test; new multi-sphere overload matching retail's per-sphere loop
(0052c5fe, first-hit admits) with the hits_interior_cell output
(0052c650) the BR-7 building channel consumes next.

The BR-1 pre-check left the #113 phantom residual with two surviving
suspects, both cell-side: (a) flood-admitted cells whose shell draws with
a pass-all slice (NoClipSlice fallback when the assembler handed no slot,
or an assembler slot-0 scissor-fallback slice), and (b) cell entity
buckets drawn unclipped + un-viewcone'd by design.
[phantom-shell]: per shell-pass cell, print-on-change - clip-enable
state, slot presence, every drawn slice's slot + plane count with
PASS-ALL flagged. [phantom-objs]: per object-list cell, print-on-change
- entity bucket size. Env-gated ACDREAM_PROBE_PHANTOM=1, zero cost off,
throwaway (strip when the phantom closes).
Repro protocol: launch with the probe on, stand at the hall bisect spot
(world ~216,-108 looking at the AAB3 meeting hall west face) where the
phantom is visible, read which mechanism fires for stair cells
0xAAB30100..0x106. Shells pass-all -> BR-2/BR-3 close it; statics ->
BR-5 closes it.

The oracle read the #112 residual was waiting on, settled against the
LIVE 2013 client (cdb attach, CEnvCell::find_transit_cells @ 0052c820;
BN pseudo-C was ambiguous and partly wrong per
feedback_bn_decomp_field_names - it invented portal_side tests in this
branch): retail admits outdoor transit cells from an indoor cell IFF a
path sphere STRADDLES an exterior portal polygon plane,
|dist| < radius + F_EPSILON(0.000199999995, @ 007c8c70). The flag at
[esp+18h] (set 0052c925, x87 decode fcompp/test ah,41h +
fcomp/test ah,5/jp) gates the add_all_outside_cells call (0052c9d6 je).
Graph reachability alone NEVER admits outdoor cells in retail.
Port (CellTransit):
- FindTransitCellsSphere: exitOutside now carries the retail straddle
semantics; new hasExitPortal out carries the old topology-only flag.
- BuildCellSetAndPickContaining: the collision cell SET keeps the A6.P5
topology widening on hasExitPortal (outdoor-registered doors must stay
findable from indoor cells until #99/A6.P4 ships per-cell shadow
lists - the 2026-05-25 door capture scenario), but the membership
PICK's outdoor branch is gated on the retail flag. Membership is now
retail-identical in both regimes: straddle -> outdoor candidates valid;
no straddle -> outdoor ignored -> retail keep-curr. This is what stops
deep-interior containment gaps in ANY house from demoting to outdoor
(the #112 transparent-interior shape) - the systemic protection the
user asked for, without house-by-house verification.
The at-doorway A9B3 gap demote is RETAIL-FAITHFUL (gap point is 0.23m
from 0x104s door plane < 0.48 foot radius -> retail straddles + demotes
+ self-heals inward): DocumentsResidual renamed to

deep-gap keep-curr (A9B3Cottage_GapBeyondStraddleDistance_KeepsCurrCell)

player outdoor-classified deep indoors, where re-promotion is portal-
adjacent-only (retail-identical) -> the outdoor flood rendered the interior
transparent (the user's "sometimes transparent" walk).
The hatch's actual target - poisoned (cell, position) SAVES - has been
handled at the SNAP by PhysicsEngine.Resolve's AdjustPosition validation
since #107/#111, so the per-tick pick reverts to retail semantics:
1. lateral recovery first - when the sphere no longer overlaps the claim,
search the claim's stab list for a containing cell (retail
find_visible_child_cell :311444, the same recovery AdjustPosition uses);
the #111 adjacent-claim shape now self-heals laterally (dat-backed test:
pick(seed 0x172) at a 0x171-interior point -> 0x171);
2. else KEEP curr_cell (retail null-result).

Two grounding selection rules failed against live ACE restores before the
right one: (1) first-hit SampleFloorZ returned 0x171's 99.475 ceiling TOP face
over its 94.0 floor (issue111-verify2.log) - the player committed onto the
roof level, and the session's heartbeats poisoned ACE's save with z=99.475;
(2) nearest-to-reference self-confirmed that poison (the reference SAT on the
ceiling face, issue111-verify3.log). Root insight: ceiling/roof top faces are
upward-facing and XY-projectable - geometrically indistinguishable from
floors in the render-ish CellSurface soup. The PHYSICS walkable set (plane
normal.Z >= PhysicsGlobals.FloorZ over the claim's Resolved cell-local
polygons - retail BSPTREE::find_walkable's filter) contains only real floors:
PhysicsEngine.WalkableFloorZNearest transforms into the cell frame, drops on
each walkable plane under the XY, picks nearest the reference.

and the legacy Resolve then committed 0xA9B4013F instead: its bestCell floor-
pick scans EVERY CellSurface in the landblock (123 at Holtburg) for "any floor
under this XY nearest currentZ" and breaks same-height ties by iteration
order. The wrong cell then fails containment on the first movement -> outdoor
demote inside the building -> the #111 transparent interior. This free-pick
also explains the earlier "committed verbatim" mystery (the winning tie
happened to echo the input pair) AND seeded the ACE poison loop: our outbound
heartbeats reported the clobbered cell, ACE persisted it, and the NEXT login
inherited it (this run's [spawn-adjust] rejecting 0xA9B4013F is exactly that
echo coming back).
Fix (retail SetPositionInternal shape): when AdjustPosition VALIDATED an
indoor claim, the cell choice is settled - the snap grounds Z onto the
validated cell's own floor (find_valid_position's settle role, :283426) and
returns; it never re-picks the cell from floor geometry. Claims whose cell has
no own floor surface under the XY (thresholds, stair lips) fall through to
the legacy path unchanged; mover-shaped calls (delta != 0, tests) untouched.
[snap] diagnostic kept (snaps only - one line per login/teleport).
Baseline: Core 1381+4 pre-existing #99 failures+1 skip; App/UI/Net green.

Gate-run finding (wedge-107-gate-indoor-login.log + dat scan): ACE saved the
cell one room off (claim 0xA9B40172, position inside 0xA9B40171 — adjacent
rooms). FindVisibleChildCell corrects this fine when hydrated (proven by the
new AdjacentRoomClaim regression test), but the live entry committed the raw
claim: IsSpawnCellReady's "any cell struct in the landblock => claim is bogus,
proceed" disambiguator observed the MID-POPULATION state (interiors hydrate in
id order on the background worker; the render-thread predicate read the cache
mid-loop) and opened the gate before the claim and its stab neighbors were
cached. AdjustPosition then saw a null cell struct and silently passed the
claim through; the first movement demoted the player to outdoor inside the
house — the user-visible "transparent interior, see straight through walls"
(render is downstream of membership: an outdoor-classified viewer only sees
the interior through the doorway flood).
Fix: the hold now waits for THE CLAIMED CELL's struct, full stop
(IsSpawnCellReady simplification; HasAnyCellStructInLandblock removed).
Claims that can never hydrate are filtered by GameWindow against the dat's
LandBlockInfo.NumCells range (memoized IsSpawnClaimUnhydratable), and
PhysicsEngine.Resolve carries a loud lost-cell-equivalent safety net: an
indoor claim with NO cell struct AND NO CellSurface floor data demotes to the
outdoor landcell with a [spawn-adjust] line instead of committing raw
(retail GotoLostCell :283418; documented divergence). Partial hydration
(CellSurface present, struct pending) keeps the legacy floor-snap behavior —
HasCellSurface uses the file's masked-low-word norm so bare-id fixtures and
full-id production both resolve.

Root cause (capture resolve-107-login1.jsonl + dat conformance scan): ACE
restored the player with a POISONED (cell, position) pair — cell 0xA9B40162
(one building) with a position inside 0xA9B40171 (a different building 55 m
away). Our entry snap trusted the claim verbatim: the player stood
fake-grounded for minutes (isOnGround passthrough, no contact plane, no
walkable polygon — zero-move resolves short-circuit), the FIRST movement input
ran a real transition, the pick demoted the indoor claim to outdoor
mid-building, and the player fell 2.4 m through the cottage floor onto the
terrain underneath — wedged inside the building shell. The second wedge shape
(flood-fix-gate2.log) was the PortalSpace freeze: the teleport-arrival
detection gated on `differentLandblock || farAway>100m`, an invented
heuristic — ACE's same-landblock short-hop corrections matched neither, so
PortalSpace never exited and movement input stayed frozen all session.
Four legs, all retail-anchored:
1. PhysicsEngine.Resolve (the player snap path: login entry + teleport
arrival) now runs AdjustPosition first — retail SetPositionInternal step 1
(acclient :283892, AdjustPosition :280009): validate/correct the claimed
cell from the foot-sphere center BEFORE any physics. Corrections log one
[spawn-adjust] line.
2. AdjustPosition's previously-deferred indoor seen_outside →
adjust_to_outside sub-fallback (:280037-280046) is completed; CellPhysics
gains the SeenOutside flag (dat EnvCellFlags.SeenOutside) cached in
CacheCellStruct. The camera path does not reach this sub-branch in the
gated scenarios (CameraCornerSealReplayTests green).
3. PortalSpace arrival = ANY player position update (holtburger PlayerTeleport
handler conformant; recenter still only on landblock change). Verified
live: ACE sent a same-lb dist=69.8 correction that the old gate would have
frozen on — it now completes.
4. Outbound wire (cell, position) pairs are now SELF-CONSISTENT: derive the
landblock frame from the resolver's full cell id instead of welding a
position-derived landblock onto its low word — the old composition could
write exactly the poisoned pair shape into ACE's character save. Plus the
#106-gate-2 hold extension: an indoor spawn claim waits for the claimed
cell's hydration (IsSpawnCellReady) so the validation can act — the async
equivalent of retail's synchronous cell load.
Live verification (wedge-107-verify1.log): entry clean; ACE's same-lb teleport
correction completed (old code: permanent freeze); the teleport destination
itself carried ANOTHER poisoned claim (0xA9B40150) which [spawn-adjust]
corrected to 0xA9B40019; player fully controllable, walking across landcells.

Root cause: TextureAtlasManager.AddTexture only STAGES texture content (PBO
write + ManagedGLTextureArray._pendingUpdates); the actual TexSubImage3D
copies + mipmap regeneration happen in ProcessDirtyUpdates, which WB drives
once per frame via ObjectMeshManager.GenerateMipmaps() from its render loop
(WB GameScene.cs:975, just before the opaque pass). GameScene is the file we
replaced with GameWindow, so the call site was silently dropped — staged
updates only reached the GPU as a side effect of PBO growth (UpdateLayerInternal
flushes pending updates before orphaning the PBO). Every layer staged after an
array's LAST growth kept undefined TexStorage3D content behind a valid,
resident bindless sampler handle: white/garbage walls, zh==0, dat tripwires
silent — exactly the #105 signature. Only ObjectRenderBatch.BindlessTextureHandle
consumers are affected (EnvCellRenderer cell shells = indoor walls); entities
resolve via TextureCache (immediate TexImage2D) and terrain via TerrainAtlas
(immediate GenerateMipmap), which is why only indoor walls ever struck.
Fix: WbMeshAdapter.Tick() now calls _meshManager.GenerateMipmaps() after the
staged-upload drain — Tick runs before all draw passes (GameWindow OnRender),
the exact WB-equivalent position.
Evidence (ACDREAM_PROBE_TEXFLUSH=1 apparatus, kept env-gated):
- pre-fix (texflush-prefix.log): pending updates climb 0->48->...->142 and
park at 126 across 34/34 atlas arrays at standstill, forever (19 heartbeats);
brief dips only at PBO-growth crossings — the broken contract live.
- post-fix (texflush-postfix.log): every line after=0 — staged updates drain
the same frame, all 34 arrays clean.
Intermittency explained: background decode-completion order shuffles which
textures land in the never-flushed tail; whether a visible wall samples one is
per-run luck. Also explains the #110 correlation: znear=0.1 makes close-up
geometry newly visible -> more prepare/upload pressure indoors -> bigger tail
-> higher strike probability. The near plane is mechanism-innocent (re-land
follows as its own commit).

The decisive probe between the two surviving suspects from the 2026-06-09
building-flood-merge handoff (docs/research/2026-06-09-flap-outdoor-fullworld-
building-flood-merge-handoff.md section 1), gated by ACDREAM_PROBE_CLIPROUTE=1,
all print-on-change:
- [clip-route] (RetailPViewRenderer.DrawLandscapeThroughOutsideView): the
outside slice slot + NDC AABB + planes, the CellIdToSlot routing table, the
region-SSBO bytes DECODED at the routed slot, and the terrain-UBO head —
captured after SetTerrainClip + UploadClipFrame + SetClipRouting, i.e.
exactly what the landscape draws consume. Pins/refutes suspect (b) and the
slot-repack half of suspect (a).
- [clip-route-disp] (WbDrawDispatcher.Draw, routed draws only): per-slot
instance histogram exactly as staged for binding=3 plus the count of
entities dropped by ResolveSlotForFrame CULL. Pins/refutes the
instance-routing half of suspect (a).
- [clip-route-scis] (GameWindow.DrawRetailPViewLandscapeSlice): the ACTUAL GL
scissor enable + box read back right after BeginDoorwayScissor — the whole
landscape pass (sky + terrain + outdoor entities + player) draws inside this
box, so a doorway-sized box here IS the full-world kill by construction.
Code-reading findings recorded while building the probe: the landscape pass is
scissored to slice.NdcAabb end-to-end (GameWindow.cs DrawRetailPViewLandscapeSlice),
and ResolveEntitySlot CULLs server entities with null ParentCellId while routing
is active — both now directly observable under the probe.
Throwaway apparatus — strip once §4 ships.

Two probe additions from the §4 outdoor full-world flap investigation
(world turns to fog-tinted clear color at specific outdoor spots;
strobes then holds; camera rotation recovers; forward-walk triggers):
- [pv-input] gains terrZ=/eyeAbove= (terrain height under the camera
eye) — used to REFUTE the buried-eye hypothesis (eyeAbove stayed
+1.6..2.1 m through every held-flap block).
- [gl-state] (ACDREAM_PROBE_GLSTATE=1): snapshots the GL fixed-function
state entering the world passes (depth, blend, cull, scissor + box,
viewport, FBO, color/clip masks, glGetError), printing on change.
Delivered the frame-exact flap-onset marker: the leftover scissor box
flips from full-screen to a drifting 9x21 px doorway footprint at the
exact frame the nearby building flood merges in (pv-input flood 1->5).
Both probes are gated and zero-cost when off. Strip with the rest of
the §4 apparatus when the flap ships.

Gate-2 fallout chain: session 1's bare-id wedge poisoned ACE's save (the
client reported garbage cells while walking through walls), so session 2
logged in with (cell=0xA9B4013F inn interior, pos=(91.4,32.7)) — a
position that cell does not contain. Probe evidence: exactly one
[cell-transit] line all session; the player free-fell into an empty
world. Two holes, both fixed at the root:
1. CellTransit pick escape hatch — restores the #83/A1.7 + #90
verification that lived in PhysicsEngine.ResolveCellId before the
collide-then-pick rewrite moved membership into
BuildCellSetAndPickContaining: an indoor current cell that IS
hydrated but whose CellBSP no longer overlaps ANY part of the foot
sphere is a bogus claim (corrupt save, or walked out through an
unblocked gap). The portal BFS can never reach an exit portal from a
cell the sphere isn't in, so no candidates exist and the claim held
forever — wedging collision (ShadowObjectRegistry's #98 gate reads
"indoor primary" -> outdoor object sweep skipped), wall BSP, terrain,
and the render root. The pick now demotes to the outdoor column under
the sphere centre (the LandDefs.AdjustToOutside result already
computed for the pick — cross-block safe). Sphere-overlap
(BSPQuery.SphereIntersectsCellBsp, pseudo_c:317666 -> :323267), NOT
point-in: doorway push-back leaves the centre a few cm outside while
the sphere still overlaps — no demotion, #90's ping-pong stays dead.
An unhydrated cell cannot be verified — stale beats null while
streaming hydrates (retail-equivalent: stale curr_cell kept when the
pick finds nothing).
2. PlayerModeAutoEntry spawn-ground hold — player-mode entry now waits
for the terrain under the spawn position to stream in
(isSpawnGroundReady predicate, K.2 pattern). Entering earlier
integrates gravity against an empty world: indoor-claimed spawns got
no floor from any source and free-fell into the void; outdoor spawns
raced hydration by ~1s every login. Retail never has this state (it
loads cells synchronously) — the hold is the async-streaming
equivalent of that invariant. With the hold, the entry snap
(Resolve, stepUp=100) runs against hydrated cell floors + terrain
and re-seats a corrupt save's claim immediately.
Tests: IndoorSeed_SphereFullyOutsideHydratedCell_DemotesToOutdoorColumn

The #106 live gate run was sabotaged by a pre-existing bug the corrective
ACE teleport exposed: PhysicsEngine.Resolve (the legacy Phase-D resolve,
still used by the teleport-arrival snap at GameWindow.cs:4869 and the
player-mode-entry snap at :11295) returned BARE low-word cell ids on
every computed exit (ComputeOutdoorCellId, bestCell.CellId & 0xFFFF,
nextCellIndex, enterCellIndex). The teleport committed 0x0000013F into
PlayerMovementController.CellId, and a bare indoor id wedges the entire
membership chain:
- GetCellStruct(0x0000013F) misses (cells are keyed full-prefix) -> no
indoor wall BSP -> walk through walls;
- the b3ce505#98 gate reads "indoor primary" -> outdoor object radial
sweep skipped -> NO object collision anywhere in the world;
- BuildCellSetAndPickContaining early-returns an unresolvable id forever
(block 0x0000 is a real far-NW map block) -> membership frozen;
- render root never resolves -> interiors draw empty when stepping in.
Probe evidence: probe-cell-106-gate.log has exactly 2 [cell-transit]
lines for the whole session, both reason=teleport — the second one
(0xA9B3003C -> 0x0000013F) is the wedge. This is the L.2e "player CellId
tracked as bare low byte" finding (2026-05-12) finally biting; prefix
survival until now was a race artifact — Resolve only preserved the full
id when the landblock had not streamed in yet (passthrough exit), which
is why login snaps usually came out prefixed.
Fix: capture the matched landblock's key in Resolve's containment loop
and return lbPrefix | (targetCellId & 0xFFFF) on the computed exit —
the same full-32-bit convention Resolve's own doc comment states for
its inputs, and what both production callers (player snaps) require.
The passthrough exits (no landblock / step-reject) still return the
caller's id unchanged.
Tests: Resolve_IndoorStay_ReturnsFullPrefixedCellId (the teleport
shape, red pre-fix) + Resolve_OutdoorStay_ReturnsFullPrefixedCellId;
Resolve_LeaveIndoorCell_TransitionsToOutdoor's unmasked
`CellId < 0x100` assertion codified the bare behavior — now masked +
asserts the prefix. Full suite: 294+218+420 green; Core 1371 green +
the same 4 pre-existing door/#99-era failures + 1 skip.

The player's outdoor cell froze at the last in-block cell the moment they
walked over a landblock boundary (10,449-frame playerCell freeze in the
2026-06-09 capture; whole neighbouring-block interiors unenterable, plus
the running-distortion from the stale render anchor). Root cause: the
add_all_outside_cells port clamped BOTH the candidate proposal and the
find_cell_list containing-cell pick to the current landblock's 8x8 grid,
in a frame that silently assumed the current block sits at world origin.
One step over the line -> zero candidates -> FindCellSet returns
currentCellId forever.
Retail has no such clamp. Its cell math runs in a GLOBAL landcell grid
(lcoord 0..2039 spanning the map): get_outside_lcoord = blockid_to_lcoord
+ floor(blockLocalPos/24) with no bounds besides the map edge, and
lcoord_to_gid re-derives the landblock id from the lcoord's upper bits —
crossings are inherent, never special-cased.
The fix, decomp-cited throughout:
- New AcDream.Core.Physics.LandDefs: in_bounds (pc:68509),
blockid_to_lcoord (pc:68520), inbound_valid_cellid (pc:163438),
gid_to_lcoord (pc:163500), lcoord_to_gid (pc:171859),
get_outside_lcoord (pc:438690), adjust_to_outside (pc:438719).
Cross-checked against ACE LandDefs.cs; three artifacts documented and
avoided: BN's int8_t mis-render of block_y, BN's dropped 192f
BlockLength constant, and ACE add_cell_block's "FIXME!" same-block
guard (an ACE divergence, not retail).
- CellTransit.AddAllOutsideCells rewritten as the faithful sphere
variant (pc:317499 @0x00533630): adjust_to_outside re-seats the
(cell, position) pair cross-block, check_add_cell_boundary (pc:317229)
adds up to 3 neighbours by global lcoord, add_outside_cell (pc:317056)
has no same-block filter. adjust_to_outside failure breaks the sphere
loop (pc:533699 verbatim).
- BuildCellSetAndPickContaining: the outdoor containing-cell pick is now
the global XY-column under the sphere centre (AdjustToOutside), not
the [0,8)-clamped current-prefix reconstruction. Interior-wins order
and current-cell-first hysteresis unchanged.
- World->block-local frame conversion via the landblock origin already
registered in CellGraph (new TryGetTerrainOrigin); Zero fallback
preserves the legacy anchor-block assumption for unregistered terrain.
- Cross-landblock building entry comes free: the candidate snapshot now
contains neighbour-block landcells, so GetBuilding/CheckBuildingTransit
fire for cottages across the line (the capture's one failing entry).
Investigated FIRST per the pickup brief: the b3ce505#98 stopgap gate is
definitively exonerated — it is a collision-object query gate that fires
only for indoor primary cells; no membership path touches
ShadowObjectRegistry.

Apparatus + handoff for the indoor flap. Confirmed (primary evidence): the flap is the
portal-flood clip being µm-sensitive at the threshold, driven by a ~1-8µm jitter in the
player RenderPosition (physics resting position not bit-stable; Lerp surfaces it). REFUTES
the 2026-06-07 see-through/EnvCell/outdoor-node diagnosis (ModelId GfxObj 0x01000A2B IS the
solid exterior) AND an enqueue-once attempt (retail propagates late slices via AddToCell;

Checkpoint of the unified retail-faithful indoor render. The two-week HANG/grey is fixed and the
interior seals (live-verified by the user). Commits the session render-rewrite foundation together
with the fixes that made it functional.
- HANG fix: PortalVisibilityBuilder.Build portal flood did not terminate (the faithful ProjectToClip
near-side clip drifts per round, defeating the CellView dedup; the BFS had no bound after U.2a removed
MaxReprocessPerCell). Fix = drift-tolerant snapped/canonical CellView.Add dedup (PortalView.cs) plus
restored MaxReprocessPerCell=16 bounded re-enqueue (PortalVisibilityBuilder.cs). Re-enqueue is kept
(load-bearing for late-slice propagation, Build_ViewGrowthAfterDoneCell_PropagatesNewSlicesToExit);
only its count is capped. CellViewDedupTests added.
- Seal (DrawCells Task 2): RetailPViewRenderer.DrawEnvCellShells draws EVERY visible cell via
IndoorDrawPlan.ShellPass (was gated on the ClipFrameAssembler slot filter, leaving slot-less cells grey).
- Look-in FPS: GameWindow exterior look-in candidates limited to the player landblock +-1 (was all ~81
loaded LBs iterated every outdoor frame). No behaviour change (far cells were >48m, already culled).
Remaining dominant issue = the FLAP at transitions: viewer-cell metastability (render roots at the
camera-eye cell, which oscillates outdoor-indoor as the 3rd-person boom drifts across the doorway,
confirmed in render-sig). SEPARATE fix, NOT the DrawCells port. Full handoff + flap fix plan + tracked

Retail SmartBox::RenderNormalMode (0x453aa0:92665) branches DrawInside vs the
outdoor LScape::draw on is_player_outside (the PLAYER's cell, 0x451e80), then
roots DrawInside at the VIEWER cell. acdream keyed the whole branch off the
camera cell (clipRoot = visibility.CameraCell), so a 3rd-person chase camera
lagging in a doorway AFTER the player stepped outside took the DrawInside path
rooted at the threshold cell, where the exit-portal flood degenerates: grey
world + entities-through-walls. Now ShouldRenderIndoor(playerCellId,
viewerCellResolved) gates the branch on the player; the DrawInside root stays
the viewer cell (handoff invariant preserved).
SCOPE / HONESTY: this REDUCES the player-OUTSIDE doorway grey (visual-confirmed
reduced a lot) but does NOT fix the deeper symptom: when the player is in one
interior cell (cellar 0174) and the camera is in another (room 0171), the flood
roots at the camera cell and does NOT seal the player's cell, so the cellar
floor / interior walls drop to grey. That is the KNOWN R1-completion problem
(2026-06-05 Residual A handoff + 2026-06-02 design doc section 3: a
SHELL-SEALING / wrong-flood-root bug), not this branch.

Complete Render Residual A's faithful port: PhysicsCameraCollisionProbe.SweepEye
now mirrors SmartBox::update_viewer (acclient_2013_pseudo_c.txt:92761) end-to-end:
- Start cell (pc:92824-92844): indoor (>=0x100) seats the sweep at the head-PIVOT
via PhysicsEngine.AdjustPosition (the cellar-lip case — feet in the low connector,
head up at floor level); outdoor keeps the player cell.
- Sweep pivot -> sought-eye from the seated start cell (unchanged 0x5c viewer flags).
- Success (pc:92870): set_viewer(curr_pos), viewer_cell = curr_cell.
- Fallback 1 (pc:92878): AdjustPosition(sought_eye).
- Fallback 2 / no-cell (pc:92775, 92886): snap to player, viewer_cell = null. This
also makes cellId==0 faithful (was returning the desired eye; retail snaps to
player_pos) and adds the playerPos arg to ICameraCollisionProbe.SweepEye.
Supporting: ResolveResult.Ok surfaces FindTransitionalPosition's return (retail
find_valid_position != 0, pc:273898) so SweepEye knows when to fall back.
TDD: 11 new tests (FindVisibleChildCell 4, AdjustPosition 3, ResolveResult.Ok 2,
SweepEye orchestration 2). The seating test's RED proved the sweep does NOT auto-
advance feet->room, so the pivot-seated start cell is genuinely decisive. Core
1326 pass / 4 documented-fail / 1 skip; App 179 pass / 0 fail. No regression.
Per the live-capture finding, the visible payoff is the cellar-corner (point 3);
the cottage-room bluish void stays for residual C. Spec:

The two Core physics primitives retail's SmartBox::update_viewer calls down into,
ported verbatim (TDD, 7 new tests):
- CellTransit.FindVisibleChildCell (CEnvCell::find_visible_child_cell, pc:311397):
return the cell whose cell-BSP point_in_cell contains a world point — start cell
first, then (stab-list mode) the start's VisibleCellIds or (portal mode) its
direct portals. Sibling of FindCellList. Mirrors FindCellList's null-CellBSP skip
(CellTransit.cs:518) so a cell lacking hydrated CellBSP doesn't spuriously claim
every point via PointInsideCellBsp's null-node "inside" default.
- PhysicsEngine.AdjustPosition (CPhysicsObj::AdjustPosition, pc:280009): resolve a
point's cell from a seed. Indoor (>=0x100) → FindVisibleChildCell(stab-list);
outdoor → landcell snap (same grid lookup as ResolveCellId). The seen_outside
sub-fallback is deferred (off the cottage/cellar path; spec §6).
Both are unwired into any production path — they land the machinery update_viewer's
start-cell + fallback 1 need (and that residual C also needs). The App SweepEye
orchestration that calls them lands next.
Decomp-faithful per the live-capture finding: A's V1 sweep already contains the eye
(eyeInRoot=Y 99.75%, never void); this completes A as a verbatim port. Spec:

Root cause of the "blocked at the last cellar step" wedge (the primary,
ramp-climb family — 20/29 captured records). The prior session's pinned
"find_walkable is never called during the step-down" was a probe artifact:
a fresh [fc-dispatch]/[step-sphere-down] trace proves Path-3 StepSphereDown
IS reached for both the carried cell and the iterated other-cell.
The real divergence is in Transition.CheckOtherCells. Retail's
check_other_cells (acclient_2013_pseudo_c.txt:272735 → (*cell+0x88)(this))
re-collides the OTHER cells against the LIVE sphere_path.global_sphere — the
position AFTER the primary insert_into_cell ran. The primary collide can MOVE
the sphere: a Path-5 full-hit dispatches step_sphere_up, and a successful
step-up climbs the foot onto the cottage floor yet still returns OK. acdream
instead reused a footCenter snapshot captured BEFORE the primary collide, so
once the lip-riser step-up climbed the foot onto the floor, check_other_cells
still queried 0171 at the pre-climb (sunk ~0.25 m below the floor) position →
the foot spuriously near-missed the very floor it had climbed onto →
neg_step_up → a doomed second step_up vs the floor normal (0,0,1) whose
step_up_slide unwound the climb → validate_transition reverted → 0% advance.
Fix: re-read footCenter = sp.GlobalSphere[0].Origin at the top of
RunCheckOtherCellsAndAdvance (one line). Pre-fix 0/29 wedge records advanced;
post-fix 20/29 climb onto Z≈94.
No regression: full Core suite 1321 pass / 4 fail (the documented baseline:
Apparatus_Grounded_50cmOffCenter, 2× DoorBugTrajectoryReplay LiveCompare_*,
BSPStepUpTests.D4) / 1 skip. The 2 door LiveCompare divergences are
byte-identical with/without the fix (the door's step_up FAILS → sphere
restored → position unchanged → footCenter == live).

P2 / M1.5 "blocked at the last step" cellar-lip wedge. This session built a faithful
deterministic reproduction and peeled the cause through six evidence-disproven framings
to one bounded question. NO fix landed — the last layers were each disproven by evidence,
and guessing at the load-bearing collision code is the saga's failure mode.
Apparatus:
- CellarLipWedgeTests.cs + Fixtures/cellar-lip/ (3 real cell dumps + wedge-records.jsonl =
29 captured ACDREAM_CAPTURE_RESOLVE wedge calls). Replays the exact calls + body-before
through the lip-cell engine: all 29 reproduce at 0% advance in <200 ms. Tests are
documents-the-bug / diagnostics (GREEN while the wedge exists).
- TEMP probes ([path5-wall]/[fw-enter]/[find-walkable] in BSPQuery; [neg-poly]/[stepsphereup]/
[stepdown-decide]/CheckOtherCells cn/sn/negHit in TransitionTypes), gated on
ACDREAM_PROBE_INDOOR_BSP, marked STRIP. TransitionTypes neg-poly shortcut has a reverted-fix
comment (slide attempt didn't clear the wedge).
- tools/cdb/retail-*-trace.cdb (retail cdb traces).
Findings (handoff: docs/research/2026-06-04-p2-cellar-lip-flatfloor-cp-handoff.md, see the
"NEXT-SESSION KICKOFF" at top):
- Flat-floor contact plane is retail-faithful (v1 trace, full-file correlation). NOT the bug.
- PosHitsSphere cull sign is retail-faithful (cdb -z verified; the Binary Ninja `test ah,N; jp`
parity-jump reads inverted — caught + reverted a wrong fix from that mis-read).
- Sphere radius correct (0.48 player / 0.30 camera probe).
- Retail connector cell 0xA9B40175 never blocks (CEnvCell::find_collisions trace: 0 Collided/Slid).
- PINNED: during the step-up's step-down, BSPQuery.FindWalkableInternal is never called for cell
0171, so the cottage floor (poly 0x0023, Z=94) is never tested as walkable -> no contact plane
-> step-up fails -> StepUpSlide=Collided -> wedge.
Next: trace FindEnvCollisions -> FindCollisions path dispatch for 0171 during StepDown=true (why
StepSphereDown/find_walkable is skipped), port retail, validate via CellarLipWedgeTests, regress
DoorBugTrajectoryReplayTests + visual gate.

Replace the A6.P4 Collided shortcut in transitional_insert's neg_step_up==0
branch with the faithful CSphere::slide_sphere. Retail
(acclient_2013_pseudo_c.txt:273350-273351, CTransition::transitional_insert):
neg_step_up==0 (HEAD-sphere near-miss) -> slide_sphere -> continue the insert
loop; neg_step_up==1 (foot) -> step_up_slide. The acdream foot branch already
did that; only the head branch took the shortcut (SetCollisionNormal + return
Collided = dead hard-stop). The slide itself is the existing
SlideSphereInternal (Sphere.SlideSphere port): it strips the into-wall
component and keeps the tangential crease (collisionNormal x contactPlane.N).
Surfaced by the B1 near-miss-gate fix (abbd761): once the grounded mover climbs
onto the cottage floor, its head sphere brushes the cellar stairwell walls and
the old hard-stop wedged it (2026-06-04 live capture: 274 (0,-1,0) + 78
(1,0,0) hits, out==current, dead oscillation). Post-fix capture shows 96
hit-and-advanced frames (the body slides along the walls).
Visual-verified 2026-06-04: closed cottage door still BLOCKS (no walkthrough --
drifts sideways along it, retail-faithful); cellar ascent now works (was always
stuck). An intermittent corner-wedge (slide into the -Y/+X wall corner) remains
-- separate finer issue, under investigation.
Core 1310 pass / 4 fail (pre-existing: 3 door documents-the-bug + D4 airborne).

The 2026-06-03 handoff localized the failing Core tests to the BSP Path 5
step-up CLIMB (find_walkable/step_sphere_down). An ITestOutputHelper capture
of B1 disproved that: the climb code is correct (matches ACE
Polygon.adjust_sphere_to_plane / BSPTree.step_sphere_down exactly). The real
bug is the A6.P4 near-miss dispatch in FindCollisions' Path 5 (Contact
branch), which diverged from retail three ways:
1. Recorded a near-miss NegPolyHit UNCONDITIONALLY. Retail gates both
set_neg_poly_hit calls behind `if (num_sphere > 1)`
(acclient_2013_pseudo_c.txt:323852).
2. Checked the foot sphere's near-miss before the head's. Retail checks
the head (sphere1) first.
3. Mapped foot->neg_step_up=false / head->true. Retail maps head(index 0)
->false (slide), foot(index 1)->true (step-up), per
SPHEREPATH::set_neg_poly_hit (:323279, neg_step_up = arg2).
For B1's single foot sphere, the spurious near-miss -> outer loop
`!NegStepUp -> SetCollisionNormal + Collided` -> revert: the grounded mover
wedged at x=0.1 and never advanced to the wall to step up. With the verbatim
gate, a single-sphere near-miss records nothing, the sphere advances,
full-hits the wall, and step_sphere_up climbs the 0.25 m step (verified via
probe capture: foot ends at (0.6, 0, 0.25)).
The Holtburg cottage door still blocks faithfully (door slab (0,-1,0) normal,
stops in front of the door) when the scenario has a real floor — confirmed
this change does not regress the door.
The two BSPQueryTests Path5 near-miss tests used a single sphere (the very
non-retail assumption that caused this wedge); converted to the production
2-sphere shape where the head sphere records the near-miss, matching retail.
Core 1312 pass / 4 fail (the 4 pre-existing: 3 door documents-the-bug + D4
airborne, none regressed here); App 177 green.

THE doorway flap root cause, found via [flap-cam]/[shell]/[cell-transit] (2026-06-03):
the player spawned + stood still in the room (cell 0171, NO [cell-transit] after teleport),
yet the render rooted at the vestibule (0170) for all 77,951 frames — drawing only 0170's
~8-triangle shell, the rest = GL clear color = the bluish void.
CellGraph.CurrCell IS "the player's cell" (the render root), but it was written by
SetCurrAndReturn inside the PER-ENTITY ResolveWithTransition + ResolveCellId — so EVERY NPC
wrote it. A Holtburg NPC (0x000F4240) jump-looping near the doorway clobbered the player's
render root every tick. Standing still (player makes no resolve calls) the NPC's write wins
→ stuck blue void; moving, player/NPC writes fight → the flap. This is why the membership
pick fix (correct, kept) didn't change the visual — the render root was clobbered regardless.
Fix: CurrCell is now written ONLY by the player. New PhysicsEngine.UpdatePlayerCurrCell is
called from PlayerMovementController.UpdateCellId — the single player-only chokepoint for
CellId (teleport / server snap @ SetPosition + per-frame resolver). Removed the CurrCell
write from SetCurrAndReturn (inlined the 2 resolve call sites to sp.CurCellId) and the 4
ResolveCellId sites. NPCs no longer touch the render root. Teleport→UpdateCellId also covers
spawn/standing-still (CurrCell = the player's spawn cell immediately).
CellGraphMembershipTests rewritten to the new contract (3 tests): UpdatePlayerCurrCell writes
the render root; ResolveCellId does NOT (the blue-hole guard); stale-beats-null preserved.
Full Core suite: 1295 pass / 5 fail = the documented §10 baseline, zero new breakage.

The ordered pick alone did not stop the cottage doorway flap: the live [cell-transit]
log showed the cell faithfully following a position that cleanly oscillated between two
values at constant Z — the signature of a bistable membership<->collision feedback loop
(user's §4.4 #3, the forked collision).
Root cause: FindEnvCollisions RE-PICKED the cell from the TARGET position (old line 1958)
BEFORE running the primary collision, so the collision geometry (which cell BSP / terrain)
swapped the instant the pick flipped -> position shifts -> pick flips back.
Retail does NOT do this. CEnvCell::find_env_collisions (acclient_2013_pseudo_c.txt:309573)
collides against the cell it was called ON (sphere_path.check_cell, the carried seed) and
picks the NEW containing cell AFTER, in CTransition::check_other_cells (272717->272761:
check_cell = var_4c). Collide-then-pick.
This commit ports that order:
- remove the pre-pick (production); collide against the carried cell (indoor BSP block /
terrain block unchanged);
- new shared RunCheckOtherCellsAndAdvance() runs the ordered FindCellSet pick +
multi-valued CheckOtherCells + the carried-cell advance AFTER the primary collision, for
BOTH indoor and outdoor seeds;
- the outdoor-seed post-step replaces the removed pre-pick's outdoor->indoor re-entry
promotion (CheckBuildingTransit interior cell + its wall collision on the entry frame).
Cache-null unit-test fallback (ResolveCellId) kept. Full Core suite: 1293 pass / 5 fail =
the documented §10 baseline exactly (2 step-up + 3 door-collision), zero new breakage.

Port CObjCell::find_cell_list (acclient_2013_pseudo_c.txt:308742) faithfully:
- build candidates into an ordered CellArray with the CURRENT cell at index 0
(add_cell @308766);
- EXPAND via a single forward walk over the growing array, mirroring retail's
for(i=0;i<num_cells;i++) cells[i].find_transit_cells loop (308775-308785),
replacing the order-losing Queue/visited BFS;
- PICK in array order with interior-wins-break (308788-308825): current cell at
index 0 wins a boundary straddle, so membership no longer ping-pongs.
Deletes the 5ca2f44 current-first pre-check (the ordered array subsumes it for every
seed). Keeps its guard test (TwoOverlappingCells_CurrentCellWinsTheStraddle) + adds
two conformance tests (current-cell-first ordering; interior-wins over outdoor
fallback). Membership net: 45 pass. Decomp finding: retail stability is emergent from
the ordered pick + carried seed, not a separate portal-crossing detector — see
docs/research/2026-06-03-cell-membership-ordered-cellarray-pseudocode.md.

Non-behavioral: lets BuildCellSetAndPickContaining pass an ordered CellArray (next
commit) while existing HashSet-passing test callers compile unchanged. HashSet<uint>
and CellArray both implement ICollection<uint>. Core builds; 9 helper tests green.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Ports retail CELLARRAY::add_cell (acclient_2013_pseudo_c.txt:701036): ordered list,
dedup by cell_id, append at end. The order is load-bearing for the verbatim
find_cell_list current-cell-first interior-wins pick (next commits) that fixes the
R1 cottage membership flap. Implements ICollection<uint> (helper-facing) +
IReadOnlyCollection<uint> (consumer-facing). 5 unit tests.
Also lands the membership-port pseudocode (workflow step 3) + the Stage-1 plan.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The flap R1 exposed is a cell-membership ping-pong: the find_cell_list containing-
cell pick (CellTransit.BuildCellSetAndPickContaining) iterated an UNORDERED HashSet
and returned the first interior cell whose BSP contains the sphere center, with no
preference for the current cell. Retail CObjCell::find_cell_list adds the current
cell at index 0 (add_cell, pc:308766) and iterates current-first with interior-wins-
break (pc:308791-308819) — you STAY in your current cell until the center genuinely
leaves it. acdream's HashSet dropped that ordering; once the candidate set churns at
a boundary the enumeration can surface a neighbour before the current cell → the
ping-pong. Restore the explicit, deterministic current-cell-first test (retail's
index-0 hysteresis). + a two-direction regression guard (current cell wins the
straddle).
Diagnosed from the existing [cell-transit] walk log (no new probing): room flips are
the pick non-determinism; stairs flips additionally show the foot Z oscillating
~0.2m/tick (a separate stairs-physics residual, #98 family, to verify after this).
The 2 DoorBugTrajectoryReplay failures are PRE-EXISTING (verified: they fail without
this change too) — 2 of the handoff's '3 door-collision apparatus / A6.P5'.

Port CEnvCell::find_visible_child_cell @ 0x0052dc50 (pseudo_c:311397): walk
rootId's StabList + the root itself, return the first EnvCell whose
PointInCell is true for worldPoint. Used to resolve the camera cell in
3rd-person from the physics cell graph rather than a fresh AABB reclassification.
Root is always the player cell (preserves U.4c flap fix). Returns null when
no stab-list cell or root itself contains the query point.
Confirmed (T3.3 Step 1): no production call site uses FindCameraCell for the
camera projection — the only AABB camera resolver is now deleted (T3.1).
FindVisibleChildCell is wired implicitly via Stage 4 (camera-outside-door scenario);
no GameWindow call site needed in Stage 3.

xUnit's default parallel execution let diagnostic-harness tests (CellarUp,
DoorBug, DoorCollisionApparatus) mutate PhysicsResolveCapture.CapturePath
and PhysicsDiagnostics probe flags concurrently with victim tests
(MotionInterpreter, PositionManager, PlayerMovementController,
DispatcherToMovement, BSPStepUp), producing a flaky 14-26 failure range.
Fixes:
- Add PhysicsResolveCapture.ResetForTest() + PhysicsDiagnostics.ResetForTest()
as documented test-only reset APIs (never called from production paths).
- Add IDisposable to CellarUpTrajectoryReplayTests with ctor/Dispose calling
both ResetForTest() — prevents CapturePath from leaking between the Capture_*
tests in the same class (the immediate root cause of Capture_SkipsNonPlayerCalls
finding an unexpected file).
- Add xunit.runner.json (maxParallelThreads=1, parallelizeTestCollections=false)
to AcDream.Core.Tests — eliminates parallelism-induced probe-flag leaks across
all test classes without requiring [Collection] boilerplate on every offender.
After: two consecutive runs produce the identical 12-failure set.
Confirmed: LiveCompare_FirstCap_FixClosesCottageFloorCap passes.

Change A (TransitionTypes.FindEnvCollisions:~1947): replace the unconditional
static ResolveCellId re-derive with the SWEPT find_cell_list pick via
CellTransit.FindCellSet. When DataCache is available (always in production),
the swept pick runs and resolves the containing cell from the portal-graph
candidate set. When DataCache is null (test engines without a cell registry),
the old ResolveCellId fallback is preserved to keep PhysicsEngineTests green.
Change B (CellTransit.BuildCellSetAndPickContaining): replace the containment
loop that silently skipped all outdoor candidates (CellBSP=null) with the
retail CObjCell::find_cell_list interior-wins pick (pseudo_c:308788-308819):
interior EnvCells win first; if no interior cell contains the center, fall
to the outdoor XY-grid column (CLandCell::point_in_cell equivalent). This is
the missing half of find_cell_list that caused the 0xA9B40170↔0xA9B40031
doorway cell-strobe — the swept pick previously always returned currentCellId
for outdoor candidates, letting the static re-derive at :1947 strobe on every
tick from a different result.
DoorwayMembershipReplayTests: two facts, loads doorway-capture.jsonl (364K records,
strobing live run), filters to Y∈[15.5,17.5] seam zone (57 records), verifies
FindCellSet produces exactly 1 transition (enter indoor → stay outdoors) with
zero A→B→A ping-pong across the full window. Second test verifies outdoor-seed
records round-trip correctly via the XY-grid formula. Both pass.
LiveCompare_FirstCap_FixClosesCottageFloorCap: still passes (issue #98 gate intact).
Full Core suite: 15 failures (within documented flaky baseline of 14–19;
all 15 are pre-existing static-leak/document-the-bug tests, zero new regressions
in cell/transit/BSP/physics classes).

Replace ResolveCellId(sp.GlobalSphere[0].Origin, ...) with SetCurrAndReturn(sp.CurCellId)
in both the OK and partial paths of ResolveWithTransition. Retail's
SetPositionInternal reads sphere_path.curr_cell which ValidateTransition
advances only on accepted moves and reverts on blocks — so a push-back or
standing-still tick cannot flip the cell. The static re-derive from the
resting origin strobes between outdoor 0031 and indoor 0170 at doorway
boundaries because the origin lands just outside the indoor BSP volume
after push-back; the swept cell doesn't.
SetCurrAndReturn is kept in both paths so the W2a CellGraph.CurrCell write
that the render root consumes still fires. ResolveCellId is NOT deleted —
it still has one caller at TransitionTypes.cs:1947 (AddAllOutsideCells).
partialCellId is kept as the degenerate fallback when sp.CurCellId==0
(teleport / physics reset before any transition has run).

Add ProbeSweptEnabled (ACDREAM_PROBE_SWEPT=1) to PhysicsDiagnostics mirroring
ProbeCellEnabled. Emits one [cell-swept] line per ResolveWithTransition call —
sp.CurCellId and sp.CheckCellId (the transition's swept cells) alongside the
incoming cellId so a doorway capture shows whether the swept cell is stable
where ResolveCellId strobes. No ResolveCellId call in the probe — avoids the
CellGraph.CurrCell side effect. No behavior change.
TDD: ProbeSweptEnabled_DefaultsToFalse RED→GREEN in PhysicsDiagnosticsTests.

Port retail CObjCell::find_cell_list do_not_load_cells prune
(acclient_2013_pseudo_c.txt:308829-308867) as indoor->outdoor doorway
hysteresis: hold the previous indoor cell when the outdoor candidate is
not in its stab list AND the foot-sphere still overlaps the cell's
containment BSP expanded by DoorwayHoldMargin. Kills the front-door
0170<->0031 ping-pong (handoff §5) the #98 saga never addressed. Fires
only at the front-door seam; the cellar has no exit portal so it never
falls through here (#98 cellar-up untouched).
Three TDD tests in CellGraphMembershipTests: HOLD (the RED->GREEN case,
Y=3.9 inside the 0.2 m margin), RELEASE when fully outside (Y=4.5
exceeds expanded margin), and stab-list gate (outdoor candidate in stab
list releases even near the boundary).
Adds using System.Linq for IReadOnlyList.Contains at the prune site.
SphereOverlapsEnvCell helper mirrors BSPQuery.SphereIntersectsCellBsp
via EnvCell.InverseWorldTransform + ContainmentBsp.

Add private `SetCurrAndReturn(uint)` helper in PhysicsEngine that looks up
the resolved id in `DataCache.CellGraph` and writes `CurrCell` when the cell
is present. Wrap the four RESOLVED-id return sites in ResolveCellId:
- indoor no-CellBSP return (trust FindCellList)
- indoor sphere-overlaps-CellBSP return
- outdoor→indoor building-transit return (foreach candidate)
- outdoor terrain-grid return
The final no-match `return fallbackCellId;` is intentionally NOT wrapped —
stale beats null (the caller's seed is preserved unchanged).
CurrCell has zero readers in src/ (verified by ripgrep); this is additive
write-only, identical observable behavior to W1. One new unit test
(CellGraphMembershipTests) proves RED→GREEN.
