Fixes#284 (plan S1).
A first-entry placement that could not be prepared returned
RetrySetupUnavailable and was re-Advanced every pump forever. Nothing counted
it, nothing named its cause, and nothing distinguished "waiting for something
that will arrive" from "waiting for something that never can". That is why
#281's 43 test failures presented as four unrelated symptoms across App and
Runtime instead of one cause, and why a stuck entity in the live client simply
never appears with no log line to follow.
Worse, the two causes were conflated: 670f307c's missing-world-frame park
reported itself as RetrySetupUnavailable, sending anyone diagnosing it to the
prepared-asset pipeline rather than to the absent local-player Create that
actually publishes the frame.
- RetryWorldFrameUnavailable splits the two causes. Call sites now ask
IsRetryable() instead of comparing against one reason, so a future retry
reason cannot be silently reclassified as a hard rejection - the exact way
this class of bug hides.
- The operation retains its RuntimeSetPositionParkReason, and
RuntimeSetPositionOwnershipSnapshot reports parked work by cause
(ParkedAwaitingSetupCollisionCount / ParkedAwaitingWorldFrameCount /
ParkedPlacementCount), so parked placements appear wherever ledgers are
already asserted.
- ObserveLocalPlayerCreate records the accepted local-player Create even when
it carries no landblock - precisely the case where no frame is ever
published - and ThrowIfWorldFrameUnreachable makes that contradiction
terminal. Waiting is legitimate only while that Create is outstanding; after
it, no later pump can supply the frame. Same shape as 01f4791e, which made a
violated receipt-ledger invariant terminal rather than resumable.
This is observability plus fail-fast. There is no timeout, no retry cap, and
no grace period anywhere in it; retryable work still retries exactly as before
and no placement behaviour changed.
The parked counts are deliberately NOT folded into IsConverged: #277 documents
a far Create legitimately parking for a whole session, so a parked entry at
teardown is not automatically a defect. Wiring them into the connected gates
is carried with #277's service-window conversion, where "legitimately parked"
becomes definable.
Runtime 1,012/1,012. Complete Release solution: 10,834 passed / 4 skipped /
0 failed.

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 C3b: residence-route remote/creature/projectile Creates now
get their canonical PhysicsBody at Create time — retail's order, closing
the C3 flip's Finding C (production builds bodies at first motion; retail
builds them in ACCObjectMaint::CreateObject). RuntimeRemoteBodyDescription
walks set_description 0x00514F40 exactly: the motion-table gate (zero id
PASSES — verified at 0051871f/005127ca), the frame-vs-movement branch
keyed on retail's movement_buffer != 0 (an empty-buffer movement payload
takes the PLACEMENT branch and writes no autonomy — the wire-shape defect
the retail review caught), set_state, the byte-certain friction gate
(inclusive [0,1]; NaN deliberately skipped per the gates doc's sanctioned
deviation), the set_elasticity clamp with retail's unordered-to-zero NaN
routing (ACE diverges to 0.1 on that edge), the translucency gate
(!= 0.0f, original always recorded), velocity via setter, omega raw, and
ctor-defaults for absent wire fields (0.95f/0.05f/0 — the fresh-desc-per-
message flow verified at both UnPack call sites). InWorld stays false
until submission, the enter_world analog.
RuntimeRemoteFirstEntryState sequences mover-prep -> body construction ->
placement -> acknowledgement -> Execute with every C3a hardening
inherited: exactly-once stages, the shared acknowledge-stage
discriminator (extracted to RuntimeFirstEntryAcknowledgement, one body
for both conductors), typed Contention against in-flight remote-motion
binds, never-clobber body binding through the canonical writer (foreign
body fails closed — provably safe coexistence with today's
build-at-first-motion path in both directions), automatic convergence
through the retirement fan-out, and the construction receipt riding the
terminal Advance. Dormant: no production caller; C3c wires both hosts.
Reviewed: retail-conformance PASS (the construction order, both gate
boundary/NaN semantics, the motion-table and autonomy verdicts all
re-derived from the pseudo-C) + architecture/adversarial PASS after one
fix round. Runtime 982/982; complete Release solution 10,777 passed / 4
intentional skips.

Cutover slice C3a: the resumable transaction that dissolves the C3
flip's circularity finding. RuntimeLocalPlayerFirstEntryState drives the
local player's complete entry in retail's own order — authored-mover
preparation (the makeObject/set_description shape analog, via a pure
no-submit extraction TryPrepareAuthoredMover), the publication chain's
off-canonical Prepare + atomic body Commit against the residence's exact
placement token, the Evaluate/CommitActivation enter-world analog, the
Place-receipt acknowledgement as that act's virtualized completion, and
only then the executor's FIFO drain (retail: enter_world at 93824
strictly precedes ProcessObjectNetBlobs at 93831). Five stages, eight
typed statuses, exactly-once per stage under retry, no second token
copies, and an acknowledge-stage discriminator that separates
not-yet-FIFO-head (retryable) from authority-moved (typed abandonment) —
a mid-flight delete can no longer strand a retry-forever entry.
The residence retirement notification becomes an ordered multicast
(snapshot-iterated per the event-stream precedent), the lifetime
constructs the conductor with a late-bind Publication seam (transactional
unbound failure — no mutation before the throw), deletion/reset converge
the conductor automatically through the same choke points as the
executor, and its active count is in the ownership snapshot and
IsConverged. Dormant: no production Advance caller; GameRuntime binding
is C3c's first act.
Reviewed: retail-conformance PASS (the stage order verified
step-for-step against retail's entry sequence; the live-controller-on-
abandonment invariant proven structurally enforced and retail-correct —
retail has no entry-flow rollback) + architecture/adversarial PASS after
one fix round (acknowledge-stage authority discrimination; the wiring
fold; two prescribed pre-C3c hardenings). Runtime 948/948; complete
Release solution green across all nine projects.
