Extends the existing [indoor-bsp] probe surface in FindEnvCollisions
with a per-call [indoor-walkable] line gated on
PhysicsDiagnostics.ProbeIndoorBspEnabled (no new flag). Logs the
synthesized contact plane, the polyId hit, and the signed Z gap (dz)
between foot and plane.
Lets the visual-verification step distinguish "FindWalkableSphere
picked the right polygon" from "FindWalkableSphere returned a miss
and we fell through to outdoor-terrain backstop", which is critical
for triaging any remaining indoor collision oddities after the BSP
port lands.
Runtime-toggleable via the existing DebugPanel "Indoor BSP probe"
checkbox; zero cost when disabled.

Code review feedback on Task 3 commit 91b29d1:
- TryFindIndoorWalkablePlane: comment explaining why FindWalkableSphere's
adjustedCenter out param is intentionally discarded (ValidateWalkable
recomputes contact geometry from plane + foot position, consistent
with the outdoor terrain path).
- IndoorWalkablePlaneTests: new TryFindIndoorWalkablePlane_WallPolyInBsp_ReturnsFalse
restores integration-level coverage that the renamed NoBsp_ReturnsFalse
lost. Verifies WalkableAllowance gate rejects a wall polygon in the
cell BSP. Steep-poly rejection is also covered at the BSPQuery layer
by FindWalkableSphere_SteepPoly_RejectedByWalkableAllowance.
No behavior change. Build clean; all related tests pass; same 8
pre-existing failures.

TryFindIndoorWalkablePlane (Phase 2 commit eb0f772) used a linear
first-match XY scan of cellPhysics.Resolved with no Z-proximity test.
For any cell with two walkable polys overlapping in XY at different Z
(cellars, 2nd floors, balconies, stairs spanning floors), it returned
whichever polygon came first in dictionary order — typically the upper
floor when descending, causing the player to be reported below the
synthesized plane → ValidateWalkable fails → falling-stuck. Symptoms
reported by user 2026-05-19: cannot descend into cellar; cannot walk
on 2nd floor; "invisible obstacles at certain spots" (suspected
cascade from wrong-Z ContactPlane misrouting the resolver state).
Fix: route through BSPQuery.FindWalkableSphere (added previous commit),
which wraps the existing retail-faithful FindWalkableInternal
(BSPNODE::find_walkable + BSPLEAF::find_walkable port). Adds a
sphereRadius parameter to TryFindIndoorWalkablePlane so the foot
sphere is built with the actual entity radius rather than a guess.
WalkableAllowance is save/restored via try/finally so the slope
threshold used by walkable_hits_sphere doesn't leak back to the
resolver. Method becomes an instance method (was static) to access
this.SpherePath.
Deletes the now-dead PointInPolygonXY helper.
Updates IndoorWalkablePlaneTests.cs: all TryFindIndoorWalkablePlane
test fixtures now include a PhysicsBSPTree leaf node (required by
the new routing path), calls pass sphereRadius, and the PointInPolygonXY
tests are removed (method deleted). Adds TransitionTypesTests.cs with
an integration test covering two-overlapping-floors selection AND
WalkableAllowance preservation.
Closes (pending visual verification): ISSUES #83.

Code review feedback on Task 2 commit 7f55e14:
- Tests 1 and 2 now assert on adjustedCenter.Z (was the wrapper's
primary behavioral contract — sphere placed on polygon plane —
but it was unverified). Math derived from AdjustSphereToPlane:
iDist = (dpPos - radius) / dpMove; new center = center - movement * iDist.
- Test 2 also gains the hitPoly.Plane.Normal.Z assertion that
Test 1 already had.
- Test 4 comment slope-angle clarification.
- BSPQuery.cs FindWalkableSphere section header now notes this is
not a direct retail port (it wraps BSPNODE::find_walkable +
BSPLEAF::find_walkable via the existing FindWalkableInternal).
No behavior change. Build clean; 4/4 tests pass; same 8 pre-existing
failures.

Thin public wrapper over the existing retail-faithful
FindWalkableInternal (BSPNODE::find_walkable + BSPLEAF::find_walkable
port). Probes downward by probeDistance along up, returns the closest
walkable polygon the sphere would rest on plus the adjusted center.
Will replace Transition.TryFindIndoorWalkablePlane's linear first-match
scan (next commit). The wrapper is callable from any "stand here, find
my floor" use case; current intent is indoor walkable-plane synthesis.
4 unit tests covering: two-floors-foot-between (sphere overlapping lower
floor), only-upper-floor-foot-above (sphere overlapping upper floor),
no-walkable-in-probe-range (sphere out of overlap distance for all
polygons), steep-poly-rejected-by-WalkableAllowance. Note: find_walkable
requires sphere to overlap the polygon plane (|dist| <= radius);
the tests use geometry that exercises this correctly, unlike the spec's
illustrative values which assumed a "nearest below" scan.

Adds a ref ushort hitPolyId parameter to FindWalkableInternal so callers
can identify which polygon was hit. The leaf branch already iterates
foreach (ushort polyId in node.Polygons); this surfaces it.
No behavior change. Existing callers (StepSphereDown, Path 4 Collide)
pass a discard local. The new BSPQuery.FindWalkableSphere wrapper
(next commit) will consume it.
Prep for indoor walkable-plane BSP port — see spec
docs/superpowers/specs/2026-05-19-indoor-walkable-plane-bsp-port-design.md
When the indoor cell-BSP query returns OK (no wall collision), the player
is standing on a floor poly inside the cell. Previously the code fell
through to outdoor terrain (SampleTerrainWalkable + ValidateWalkable),
which used the OUTDOOR terrain plane — below the indoor floor due to the
+0.02f Z-bump applied for render z-fight prevention. ValidateWalkable
saw the player 0.5m above the outdoor plane → marked them as airborne
→ walkable=False → falling animation, never recovers.
Adds TryFindIndoorWalkablePlane (internal static for testability): scans
the cell's resolved physics polys for a walkable floor poly (normal.Z >=
0.6664, walkable-slope threshold matching retail) under the player's XY,
transforms its plane + vertices to world space via WorldTransform, and
calls ValidateWalkable with the indoor plane. Adds PointInPolygonXY
(ray-casting even-odd rule, ignores Z). Both are wired just after the
BSP OK branch in FindEnvCollisions; outdoor terrain remains a defensive
backstop if no floor poly is found under the player indoors (rare).
Matches retail's CEnvCell::find_env_collisions behavior: no fall-through
to terrain when the cell BSP successfully completes a query.
Evidence: launch-phase2-verify5.log captured 12,141 walkable=False
events during an indoor session where the player never managed to walk
back outdoor through a door — they got stuck against the indoor wall
and the resolver never re-established a walkable contact plane.
Adds 13 unit tests in IndoorWalkablePlaneTests.cs covering:
- player over floor poly (returns true, plane normal up, plane at correct Z)
- player outside poly XY (returns false)
- no walkable polys (returns false)
- empty Resolved dict (returns false)
- cell with world translation (plane + vertices in world space)
- PointInPolygonXY cases (centre, near corner, on boundary, outside, Z ignored)

Visual test of Phase 2 portal traversal showed walls still didn't
block from inside buildings. Diagnosis: ResolveCellId was being
called with sp.CheckPos (entity reference, at the feet — world
Z=terrain) instead of sp.GlobalSphere[0].Origin (foot sphere center,
~0.5m above terrain). Combined with the +0.02f Z-bump on cached
cell origins (for render z-fight prevention), the test position
landed at cell-local Z=-0.02 — just below the cell floor — and
PointInsideCellBsp correctly reported "outside" for every cell.
CheckBuildingTransit never added candidates; player CellId stayed
outdoor; indoor cell-BSP collision branch never fired; walls didn't
block.
Retail's check_building_transit uses sphere.Center (the sphere CENTER,
not the entity reference) per the pseudocode at
docs/research/acclient_indoor_transitions_pseudocode.md:222-238.
Three call sites updated (PhysicsEngine x2 inside ResolveWithTransition;
TransitionTypes inside Transition.FindEnvCollisions).
Also adds a [check-bldg] diagnostic line to CheckBuildingTransit (gated
on the existing ACDREAM_PROBE_INDOOR_BSP flag) so future verification
captures show per-portal inside/outside results without needing
another diagnostic flag.

Five reviewer-flagged items addressed:
- Fix#1: GameWindow building-loop now reuses TerrainSurface.ComputeOutdoorCellId
instead of re-deriving the row-major cell-index formula. DRY win; no risk
of the two formulas drifting.
- Fix#2: BuildingPhysics.ExactMatch decoder now references
DatReaderWriter.Enums.PortalFlags.ExactMatch instead of magic 0x0001.
- Fix#3: ExactMatch XML doc clarified as "reserved per retail's
CBldPortal::exact_match; not currently consumed by CheckBuildingTransit".
- Fix#4: CheckBuildingTransit docstring now explicitly documents the
retail divergence — retail's sphere_intersects_cell (radius-aware) vs.
our PointInsideCellBsp (radius-less). The sphereRadius parameter is
reserved for the future sphere_intersects_cell port. Practical effect
noted: entry fires ~sphereRadius (~0.48m) deeper than retail.
- Fix#5: Test method `SphereInsideBuildingPortalDestination_AddsInteriorCell`
renamed to `BuildingPortalWithUnloadedCellBSP_NoCandidateAdded` — the
test asserts Empty(candidates), not that the cell is added. Comment
updated.

Closes the outdoor→indoor entry path. New BuildingPhysics type holds
the per-SortCell BldPortal list + building world transform; PhysicsDataCache
caches it (CacheBuilding + GetBuilding); CellTransit.CheckBuildingTransit
tests each portal's destination cell via PointInsideCellBsp.
PhysicsEngine.ResolveCellId's outdoor branch now hooks CheckBuildingTransit
after the terrain-grid lookup: if the matched landcell has a cached
building stab, check whether the sphere has crossed into one of its
interior EnvCells before returning.
GameWindow at landblock-load time iterates LandBlockInfo.Buildings and
caches each via PhysicsDataCache.CacheBuilding. The landcell-id derivation
uses retail's row-major cell-index formula (gridX * 8 + gridY + 1).
Polish items from Subagent B/C reviews folded in:
- visited HashSet in FindCellList's BFS (avoids O(N^2) re-enqueue)
- ResolveCellId_NoDataCache_ReturnsFallback test (closes coverage gap)
- DataCache-asymmetry comment in PhysicsEngine.ResolveCellId
- Replaced misleading FindCellList outdoor-branch TODO with explicit
note that ResolveCellId bypasses this branch — wired in ResolveCellId
directly.
- Removed unused 'using DatReaderWriter.Types;' from CellTransit.cs
- 2 new CellTransitFindCellListTests integration tests
- 1 new CellTransitCheckBuildingTransitTests test (null-CellBSP guard
case; happy path deferred to visual verification).

New CellTransit static class ports retail's portal-graph cell traversal:
- FindTransitCellsSphere — indoor portal-neighbour walk
- AddAllOutsideCells — outdoor 24m grid expansion
- FindCellList — top-level driver (BFS through portals;
PointInsideCellBsp for final containment)
PhysicsEngine.ResolveOutdoorCellId renamed to ResolveCellId. Body
rewritten: indoor seeds delegate to CellTransit.FindCellList (portal-
graph BFS + BSP containment test); outdoor seeds keep the landblock
terrain grid lookup from the original implementation (preserving the
L.2e prefix-preservation fix). Signature extended with sphereRadius
parameter (needed by the sphere-vs-portal-plane test). Three call
sites updated (PhysicsEngine x2, TransitionTypes x1).
BSPQuery.PointInsideCellBsp retyped from PhysicsBSPNode? to CellBSPNode?
— the function operates on the cell-BSP tree (CellPhysics.CellBSP.Root
is a CellBSPNode). The previous PhysicsBSPNode typing was dead code, so
retype is safe.
Deletes the Phase D ResolveOutdoorCellIdTests.cs file. New ResolveCellIdTests
covers the equivalent contracts (fallback zero, outdoor seed with no
landblock).
Outdoor->indoor entry (check_building_transit) is stubbed pending the
BuildingPhysics infrastructure landing in the next commit.

Adds PortalInfo struct and extends CellPhysics with CellBSP (third BSP
for point-in-cell tests, typed CellBSPTree from DatReaderWriter),
Portals (from envCell.CellPortals), PortalPolygons (resolved
cellStruct.Polygons — portals reference visible polys, not
PhysicsPolygons), and VisibleCellIds (populated for future use;
envCell.VisibleCells is List<UInt16>, not Dictionary).
Deletes CellPhysics.LocalAabbMin/Max and PhysicsDataCache.TryFindContainingCell
— Phase D's AABB shortcut is gone. CacheCellStruct's AABB compute
removed; the [cell-cache] diagnostic updated with portal/visible counts
instead.
CacheCellStruct signature gains an EnvCell parameter (one call site in
GameWindow.cs:5384 updated). ResolveOutdoorCellId drops the
TryFindContainingCell call; portal-graph CellTransit replaces it next.
ResolveOutdoorCellIdTests object initializers had the deleted AABB
properties stripped temporarily so the build stays green; the file gets
replaced wholesale in the next commit (CellTransit integration). Those
2 AABB-containment tests continue to fail (they were pre-broken on this
branch); no new failures introduced.

The original Phase E [cell-cache] probe (fda6af7) only showed the BSP root
node's direct poly count, which was always 0 for non-trivial trees (internal
node root). Extending the probe to:
- Recursively walk the BSP tree and count total leaf polys
- Detect unmatched poly IDs (BSP leaves referencing IDs not in our resolved dict)
- Dump the BSP root bounding sphere (center + radius)
- Dump the cell's local AABB (min/max from poly vertices)
- Dump the cell's world origin (cellTransform * (0,0,0))
The extended data made the route-δ diagnosis definitive: Holtburg cells DO
have full physics polygons in their BSPs (e.g. 0xA9B40143 has 14 polys all
resolved, full Z range 0-2.8 m). The bug is upstream — AABB-based cell
containment is too tight to capture a standing player at most thresholds
between rooms, so the indoor cell-BSP branch fires only intermittently.
Retail uses portal traversal (CObjMaint::HandleObjectEnterCell + cell-side
portal data) which propagates CellId at door crossings. Our AABB-containment
shortcut is partial. This diagnostic stays in place as infrastructure for
the follow-up "Indoor portal-based cell tracking" phase.

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

ResolveOutdoorCellId only resolved outdoor terrain landcells. A player
geometrically inside an EnvCell stayed in outdoor-landcell range, so
FindEnvCollisions' indoor cell-BSP branch (gated on cellLow >= 0x0100)
never fired. Both #84 (blocked by air indoors) and #85 (pass through
walls outside→in) are downstream of this — without indoor cell-BSP
collision the player gets stuck against outdoor-stab back-faces of the
building shell, and walls only block from one side.
Adds an indoor-cell-containment check via PhysicsDataCache: at
CacheCellStruct time, compute each cell's local AABB from its resolved
polygon vertices; at ResolveOutdoorCellId time, transform the world
position into each cached cell's local space and return the matched
cell's full id when contained. Falls through to the existing outdoor
terrain logic when no EnvCell contains the position.
Also fixes a pre-existing prefix-preservation bug in the outdoor branch:
the function now always applies the matched landblock's high-16 prefix
even when the input fallbackCellId arrived bare-low-byte (the L.2e
finding from CLAUDE.md). Updated two existing PhysicsEngineTests that
encoded the old bare-low-byte output.
Evidence: launch-cluster-a-capture.log @ 2026-05-19 — player at
worldPos (155.376, 14.010, 94.000) geometrically inside cottage cell
0xA9B40172, but sp.CheckCellId stuck at 0x00000031 (outdoor landcell)
across 454 [resolve] lines; zero [indoor-bsp] lines because the gate
never opened.

WorldPicker.Pick previously had no occlusion test — any entity along
the click ray within maxDistance was a candidate, including ones
behind walls. Adds the CellBspRayOccluder static helper that
Möller-Trumbore-tests the click ray against every polygon in every
currently-cached EnvCell BSP, returning the nearest wall-hit `t`.
Both Pick overloads gate candidate selection by that wall-t (legacy
ray-sphere via world-space `t`, screen-rect via camera-space clip.W
depth — matching ScreenProjection.TryProjectSphereToScreenRect's
convention).
PhysicsDataCache exposes a new CellStructIds snapshot accessor so the
caller can iterate without needing the private cache dictionary.
CellPhysics.BSP/PhysicsPolygons/Vertices relaxed from required to
nullable so test fixtures can construct a CellPhysics from Resolved
alone without a real DAT BSP object. GameWindow snapshots the loaded
cell physics on each Pick call and passes the occluder callback.
Closes#86.

Two related AnimationSequencer fixes for visible animation glitches at
motion-cycle boundaries.
1. Link-tail blend hold (closes#61). BuildBlendedFrame was wrapping
nextIdx unconditionally to rangeLo at the high-frame boundary —
correct for looping cyclic nodes (idle/run/walk loops), wrong for
one-shot links and action overlays. During the ~30 ms fractional
tail before the sequencer transitions to the next queue node, the
blend mixed frame[end] with frame[0], producing a one-frame flash
through the anim's starting pose. Symptoms: door swing-open flap
(frame 0 = closed pose) and player run-stop twitch (frame 0 =
mid-stride). Fix: gate the wrap on curr.IsLooping; non-looping
nodes hold the boundary frame until AdvanceToNextAnimation fires.
2. Stop-anim direction fallback. Stopping from WalkBackward /
SideStepLeft / TurnLeft hit a null linkData from GetLink (the dat
authors a single forward/right stop link and reuses it for both
directions). SetCycle then enqueued only the Ready cycle, snapping
straight to idle with no leg-settle blend. Fix: when the primary
GetLink lookup is null, retry with the substate's low byte remapped
to its forward/right peer (0x06→0x05, 0x10→0x0F, 0x0E→0x0D).
Both fixes are pinned by new regression tests in
AnimationSequencerTests that fail against the prior code (Y=5.02 for
the link tail wrap → frame 0 blend; Y=0 for the backward stop snapping
to Ready cycle).

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

Retires divergences flagged in the 2026-05-16 faithfulness audit:
1. AP cadence. Replaces the 1 Hz idle / 10 Hz active flat heartbeat
with a diff-driven model gated on `Contact && OnWalkable`
(acclient_2013_pseudo_c.txt:700327 SendPositionEvent). Sends on
position or cell change while grounded on walkable, plus a 1 sec
heartbeat; suppressed entirely airborne. PlayerMovementController
exposes `NotePositionSent(pos, cellId, now)` which GameWindow stamps
after each AutonomousPosition / MoveToState send — mirrors retail's
shared `last_sent_position_time` between SendPositionEvent
(0x006b4770) and SendMovementEvent (0x006b4680). Known divergence
from retail: ours is per-frame-while-moving, retail's effective rate
is ~1 Hz during smooth motion (cell/plane checks). Filed as #74,
blocked by #63 — when #63 lands we revert to retail's narrower gate.
2. Workaround retirement. Removes TinyMargin (0.05 m inside arrival)
and the AP-flush before re-send (`SendAutonomousPositionNow`). The
diff-driven cadence makes both obsolete. Close-range turn-first
deferred Use is kept (it IS retail — ACE Player_Move.cs:66-87
mirrors retail's CreateMoveToChain pre-callback rotation), renamed
`OnAutoWalkArrivedSendDeferredAction` to clarify it's a FIRST send.
`isRetryAfterArrival` parameter dropped.
3. Far-range Use/PickUp retry. Restored — was load-bearing, not the
"redundant cleanup" the Group 2 audit thought. Issue #63 means ACE
drops the first Use as too-far without re-polling on subsequent APs;
the arrival re-send is what makes far-range Use complete. Logs
include `(queued for arrival re-send pending #63)` to make this
explicit. Removes when #63 closes.
4. Screen-rect picker. New `AcDream.Core.Selection.ScreenProjection`
helper shared by `WorldPicker` and `TargetIndicatorPanel`. The
`Setup.SelectionSphere` projects to a screen-space square (retail
anchor `SmartBox::GetObjectBoundingBox` 0x00452e20); picker
hit-tests the mouse pixel against the same rect the indicator draws,
inflated by 8 px (`TriangleSize`). Guarantees what-you-see is
what-you-click — including rect corners that were dead zones under
the old ray-sphere picker. Per-type radius (1.0/1.6/2.0 m) and
vertical-offset (0.2/0.9/1.0/1.5 m) heuristic lambdas retired;
`IsTallSceneryGuid` deleted; `EntityHeightFor` trimmed to 1.5 m × scale
defensive default. No defensive sphere synth — entities without a
baked `SelectionSphere` are skipped, matching retail's
`GfxObjUnderSelectionRay` (0x0054c740).
5. Rotation rate run multiplier (Commit A precursor). `TurnRateFor(running)`
helper applies retail's `run_turn_factor = 1.5f` (PDB-named
0x007c8914) under HoldKey.Run, matching `apply_run_to_command` at
0x00527be0 (line 305098). Effective: walking ≈ 90°/s, running ≈ 135°/s.
Keyboard A/D + ApplyAutoWalkOverlay both use it.
6. Useability gate (Commit A precursor). `IsUseableTarget` corrected to
`useability != 0` per `ItemUses::IsUseable` at 256455 — ANY non-zero
passes (USEABLE_NO=1, USEABLE_CONTAINED=8, etc.), not just the
USEABLE_REMOTE bit. Cross-checked against 4 call sites in retail
(ItemHolder::UseObject 0x00588a80, DetermineUseResult 0x402697,
UsingItem 0x367638, disable-button-state 0x198826). Added
`ProbeUseabilityFallbackEnabled` diagnostic
(`ACDREAM_PROBE_USEABILITY_FALLBACK=1`) to measure how often the
creature/BF_DOOR fallback fires for ACE-seed-DB entities with
null useability.
CLAUDE.md updated with the graceful-shutdown rule for relaunch:
Stop-Process bypasses the logout packet, leaving ACE's session marked
logged-in for ~3+ min. CloseMainWindow() sends WM_CLOSE so the
shutdown hook runs and the logout packet reaches ACE.
Tests: +3 ScreenProjectionTests + 6 WorldPickerRectOverloadTests = +9.
Core.Net 294/294 pass; Core 1073/1081 (8 pre-existing Physics failures
unchanged). Visual-verified 2026-05-16: rotation rate, useability,
screen-rect click area, double-click + R-key + F-key Use/PickUp at
short and long range — dialogue/door/pickup fire on arrival.
Filed follow-ups #70 (triangle apex/size DAT sprite), #71 (picker
Stage B polygon refine), #72 (cdb omega.z probe), #73 (retail-message
sweep pattern), #74 (per-frame AP chattier than retail — blocked by
#63). Old ray-sphere `WorldPicker.Pick(origin, direction, ...)`
overload kept for back-compat; no callers in acdream proper.
Plan: docs/superpowers/plans/2026-05-16-retail-faithfulness-fixes.md
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Two retail divergences fixed from the 2026-05-16 faithfulness audit
(Commit A of the plan at docs/superpowers/plans/2026-05-16-retail-faithfulness-fixes.md).
1. Rotation rate ignored HoldKey.Run. Retail's CMotionInterp::
apply_run_to_command (decomp 0x00527be0 line 305098) multiplies
turn_speed by run_turn_factor (1.5, PDB-named symbol at 0x007c8914)
when input is TurnRight/TurnLeft under HoldKey.Run. Effective
running rotation is 50% faster (~135°/s vs walking ~90°/s).
Our keyboard A/D and ApplyAutoWalkOverlay used a fixed walking
rate.
New: RemoteMoveToDriver.TurnRateFor(running) helper. Keyboard
path passes input.Run; auto-walk overlay passes
_autoWalkInitiallyRunning. The walking-rate base
(BaseTurnRateRadPerSec = π/2) is unchanged; TurnRateRadPerSec
constant is preserved as the walking-rate alias for callers
that don't have run/walk state (NPC remotes).
2. IsUseableTarget gated on `useability & USEABLE_REMOTE (0x20)`,
which was stricter than retail. Per ItemUses::IsUseable
(acclient_2013_pseudo_c.txt:256455) cross-referenced with 4
call sites, retail's IsUseable() semantic is `_useability != 0`.
But visually retail's USEABLE_NO (1) entities don't approach
either, because ACE never broadcasts MovementType=6 for them.
Our client installs a speculative auto-walk BEFORE the server
responds, so we'd visibly approach + face signs before the
wire packet was rejected.
Pragmatic fix: block USEABLE_UNDEF (0) AND USEABLE_NO (1) in
IsUseableTarget — slightly stricter than retail's
IsUseable but matches retail's user-visible behaviour
("R on sign does nothing"). Documented in the doc-comment so
a future implementer knows the gap.
3. New IsPickupableTarget gate for F-key path — requires
USEABLE_REMOTE (0x20) bit. Null-useability fallback for
BF_CORPSE + small-item ItemTypes (preserves M1 ground-item
pickup flow when ACE seed DB doesn't publish useability).
4. R-key (UseCurrentSelection) upfront gate now ALWAYS uses
IsUseableTarget. R is conceptually "use" with smart-routing
to pickup as a downstream optimization. F-key (SendPickUp)
uses IsPickupableTarget directly.
5. Retail toast strings on block, centralised in new
src/AcDream.Core/Ui/RetailMessages.cs:
- "The X cannot be used" (data 0x007e2a70, sprintf 0x00588ea4)
fires on UseCurrentSelection / SendUse gate block.
- "The X can't be picked up!" (sprintf 0x00587353) fires on
SendPickUp non-pickupable block.
- "You cannot pick up creatures!" (data 0x007e22b4) fires on
SendPickUp creature block (was previously silent).
- Plus 4 inactive retail strings ready for future call sites:
CannotBeUsedWith (two-target Use), CannotBePickedUp (formal
pickup variant), CannotBeUsedWhileOnHook_HooksOff +
CannotBeUsedWhileOnHook_NotOwner (housing). All cite their
retail data addresses + runtime sprintf addresses.
6. ProbeUseabilityFallbackEnabled diagnostic (env var
ACDREAM_PROBE_USEABILITY_FALLBACK=1) logs every time the
null-useability fallback fires. Settles whether the
fallback for creature + BF_DOOR/LIFESTONE/PORTAL/CORPSE
entries in ACE's seed DB without useability is hot code
or theoretical defense.
Test coverage:
- +3 RemoteMoveToDriverTests cover TurnRateFor walking/running/back-compat.
- +7 RetailMessagesTests cover each retail string with retail anchor.
- +1 CreateObjectTests TryParse_WeenieFlagsUsable_ReadsUseableNoValue
pins parser correctness for USEABLE_NO=1.
- 294/294 Core.Net pass; 24/24 new+touched Core tests pass.
- Pre-existing baseline of 8 Physics test failures unchanged
(BSPStepUp + MotionInterpreter regression noise from prior
sessions; out of scope here).
Deferred to a separate session per user direction:
- Click area = indicator-rect retail fidelity. Retail's picker
uses per-part CGfxObj.drawing_sphere + polygon refine
(0x0054c740); ours uses single Setup.SelectionSphere ray-
intersect. The rect corners are dead zones today. Three fix
options analyzed: screen-space rectangle hit-test, sqrt(2)
sphere inflation, polygon refine Stage B.
Plan: docs/superpowers/plans/2026-05-16-retail-faithfulness-fixes.md

User reported intermittent selection — 'sometimes can be selected,
sometimes not'. Cause: WorldEntity.Position is at FEET level (Z=ground
for standing humanoids), so a 0.7m sphere centred there only covered
the lower legs. Clicks on chest (Z≈1.2m) or head (Z≈1.7m) missed
because the closest-approach distance from the cursor ray to the
feet-centered sphere exceeded the radius.
Fix:
- Sphere centre now defaults to position.Z + 0.9 m (humanoid
mid-body). New optional verticalOffsetForGuid callback overrides
per entity.
- Default radius bumped 0.7 → 1.0 m to match the new sphere
placement (1.0 m at 0.9 m height covers a 1.8 m humanoid from
shin to top-of-head).
GameWindow.PickAndStoreSelection wires the callback:
- Creatures (ItemType.Creature flag): vz = 0.9 m (humanoid centre)
- Large flat objects (BF_DOOR | BF_LIFESTONE | BF_PORTAL |
BF_CORPSE): vz = 1.0 m + radius 2.0 m (mid-door/lifestone)
- Everything else (ground items): vz = 0.2 m (just above feet)
Existing 9 WorldPicker tests still pass — their head-on ray geometry
doesn't depend on the vertical offset.
Visual test surfaced three follow-ups:
1. Square box, not 1:2 rectangle.
WidthHeightRatio: 0.5 → 1.0. Retail's Vivid Target Indicator draws
a square; the earlier humanoid-aspect ratio looked wrong for
non-humanoids and didn't match retail screenshots.
2. Large flat objects (doors / lifestones / portals / corpses)
weren't selectable with the new tight 0.7 m pick sphere.
WorldPicker.Pick now takes an optional radiusForGuid callback so
the host can per-entity decide a larger radius. GameWindow's pick
site supplies a lambda that bumps to 2.0 m for any entity with
BF_DOOR (0x1000), BF_LIFESTONE (0x4000), BF_PORTAL (0x40000), or
BF_CORPSE (0x2000) set in ObjectDescriptionFlags. Default stays
at 0.7 m for humanoids and items.
3. New [B.7] pick-info diagnostic on each successful pick:
[B.7] pick-info guid=0x... itemType=0x... pwd=0x... color=(r,g,b)
Lets us verify e.g. whether a 'green NPC' really is server-side
flagged as Vendor (BF_VENDOR=0x200, retail-defined green) vs a
bug in our colour lookup. The pwd bit table is acclient.h:6431-
6463 — same flags retail's gmRadarUI::GetBlipColor branches on.
Note: textured retail-sprite corner triangles remain a B.7 follow-up
deferred per the spec. MVP uses procedural fills.
User-observed bug: 'I selected a retail player once, now I cant select
anything else.' Cause: the 5 m fixed pick sphere covered most of the
visible area around an entity, so once the cursor was anywhere near an
NPC or player, every subsequent click resolved to that same NPC/player
instead of the actual cursor target.
0.7 m roughly matches the actual hitbox radius of humanoid bodies and
most pickable items. Clicking on the entity's silhouette still hits;
clicking next to it or through it to a closer target now correctly
picks the closer target.
Existing 9 WorldPicker unit tests all pass — they tested geometric
behaviour at picked test radii, not the literal 5 m constant.
Follow-ups (deferred to a future picker phase):
- Per-itemType radius (tighter for tapers, looser for chests).
- Priority sorting at equal hit-distance (items beat NPCs).
- Ray-vs-actual-mesh test instead of bounding sphere.
Together with B.7's target indicator (corner triangles, c7e5f9f /
4bc95ec) this gives the user both 'I can hit what I'm aiming at'
AND 'I can see what I just hit' — fixes the over-pick at the source
plus surfaces it visually when it does still happen.
Static helper resolving a target indicator / radar blip colour from
ItemType + the raw PublicWeenieDesc._bitfield acdream already parses
onto EntitySpawn. Dispatch order matches retail decomp at 0x004d76f0:
Portal (BF_PORTAL = 0x40000) → cyan
Vendor (BF_VENDOR = 0x200) → green
Creature && !IsPlayer → yellow
Player + IsPK (BF_PLAYER_KILLER = 0x20) → red
Player + IsPKLite (= 0x2000000) → pink
Player (other) → white (Default)
Otherwise (item / object) → light grey
RGBA values are hand-tuned to visually match retail screenshots; the
real RGBAColor_Radar* constants live in retail static data and can be
swapped in later without breaking call sites.
8 unit tests cover the full type/flag matrix (item, NPC, friendly
player, PK, PKLite, vendor, portal-priority-over-flags).
Next: TargetIndicatorPanel (App, ImGui draw) that uses this lookup.
Per the B.6 design spec (now retail-grounded on Option A), slice 1 is
pure-additive logging so the next session has a clean trace of what
ACE actually sends to the local player during a server-initiated
auto-walk.
New PhysicsDiagnostics.ProbeAutoWalkEnabled static flag, env-var-
initialized from ACDREAM_PROBE_AUTOWALK=1. Probe sites:
[autowalk-out] on SendUse + SendPickUp — the packets that trigger
ACE's CreateMoveToChain when the target is out of WithinUseRadius.
[autowalk-mt] on OnLiveMotionUpdated for _playerServerGuid only —
captures MovementType + MoveToPath origin/min-dist/obj-dist +
moveTowards + speed/runRate. Lets us see exactly the wire data
retail's PerformMovement case 6 (0x00524440) was acting on.
[autowalk-up] on OnLivePositionUpdated for _playerServerGuid only —
cadence + payload of ACE's position broadcasts during auto-walk.
No behavior change. All flags off by default; opt in with the env var
during a focused reproduction. Designed to be mirrored into DebugVM
checkbox state later (parallel to ProbeResolve / ProbeCell / ProbeBuilding)
but not wired yet — env-var-only for the first trace session.
B.4b visual test confirmed the L.2g slice 1 handoff's open question:
ACE's Door.Open() broadcasts state=0x0001000C (HasPhysicsBSP |
Ethereal | ReportCollisions), NOT the state=0x14+ that retail servers
send (Ethereal | IgnoreCollisions). The L.2g pipeline correctly
mutates ShadowObjectRegistry with the new state, but
CollisionExemption.ShouldSkip required both bits and the door stayed
solid.
Retail (acclient_2013_pseudo_c.txt:276782) wraps FindObjCollisions in
`if NOT (state & ETHEREAL && state & IGNORE_COLLISIONS)`. ETHEREAL
alone takes a different retail path at line 276795 that sets
sphere_path.obstruction_ethereal = 1 and lets downstream movement
allow passage despite the contact. We haven't ported that downstream
path yet.
Pragmatic shortcut: widen the early-out to ETHEREAL alone so doors
become passable when ACE flips the bit. Retail-server broadcasts
still hit the same branch correctly (both bits set implies ETHEREAL).
Compatible with both server styles.
Renames test EtherealOnly_NotSkipped -> EtherealOnly_Skipped and
flips its assertion. 13 CollisionExemption tests pass; full suite
1046 pass / 8 pre-existing baseline fail (unchanged).

Code review flagged two latent correctness bugs in Pick:
1. The single t = -b - sqrt(d) intersection skipped entities whose
5m bounding sphere contained the ray origin. Realistic at
point-blank range — if the player stands within ~5m of a door,
the near-plane sits inside the door's bounding sphere and the
door becomes unpickable. Standard fix: when t_near < 0 fall
through to t_far = -b + sqrt(d) (the sphere exit point).
2. The discriminant formula assumes |direction| = 1. BuildRay
currently normalizes so the assumption holds at the wire, but
the contract wasn't documented. Added an explicit
<param name="direction"> note.
New test Pick_RayOriginInsideEntitySphere_StillReturnsServerGuid
covers the inside-sphere case. Suite: 9/9 WorldPicker tests pass.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Adds Pick(origin, direction, candidates, skipServerGuid, maxDistance)
to AcDream.Core.Selection.WorldPicker. Iterates candidates, skips
entities with ServerGuid==0 (atlas/dat-hydrated statics — no server
identity) and the caller's skipServerGuid (the player self).
Geometric ray-sphere intersection at 5m radius (matches
WorldEntity.DefaultAabbRadius). Returns the nearest hit's ServerGuid
within maxDistance (50m default), or null on miss.
6 xUnit tests added: hit, miss, two-in-line-returns-closer, skip-guid,
skip-zero-server-guid, beyond-max-distance.

New AcDream.Core.Selection.WorldPicker static helper. BuildRay
unprojects pixel (mouseX, mouseY) through a view+projection matrix
pair into a world-space (origin, direction) ray. Used by
GameWindow.OnInputAction to drive entity picking on click.
Pure math, no state, no DI. Composes view*projection (System.Numerics
row-vector convention, matching the rest of acdream's camera path —
see GameWindow.cs:6445 FrustumPlanes.FromViewProjection). 2 xUnit
tests cover center-of-viewport (forward ray) and right-of-center
(positive-X deflection).

New mutator that overwrites cached PhysicsState bits on every shadow copy
of the named entity. The existing CollisionExemption.ShouldSkip(...) check
(acclient_2013_pseudo_c.txt:276782) reads the same cached field, so a
post-spawn ETHEREAL flip is now honored on the next resolver tick without
any resolver-path change.
Retail anchor: CPhysicsObj::set_state at acclient_2013_pseudo_c.txt:283044.
Slice 1 scopes to the bare state-write — retail's cosmetic side-effect
handlers (0x800 lighting, 0x20 nodraw, 0x4000 hidden) don't fire for the
ETHEREAL bit and stay deferred.
Three TDD tests cover: ETHEREAL flip from 0->0x4; unregistered-entity
no-op; entity spanning multiple cells gets all copies updated.

First Holtburg-doorway capture showed all 191 [resolve-bldg] entries
labeled "n/a (cylinder)" — including hits attributed to the building
0xA9B47900 which [entity-source] confirmed was registered as type=BSP.
The label was a probe bug, not a real cylinder route.
Root cause: BSPQuery's grounded-path (Path 5) returns early via
`StepSphereUp(transition, worldNormal, engine)` when no step is already
in progress. The slice-1 side-channel write at line 1546 came AFTER
that early return, so it never fired for the dominant grounded-player
case. Compounding: StepSphereUp recurses into ResolveWithTransition →
FindObjCollisions, whose per-entity `LastBspHitPoly = null` clear
wiped any earlier write before the outer attribution emitter read it.
Fix:
1. BSPQuery Path 5: move LastBspHitPoly write to the top of
`if (hit0 || hitPoly0 != null)` blocks (both foot- and head-sphere),
BEFORE the StepSphereUp early return. Recursion-safe — the inner
resolve's BSP writes will overwrite with the inner entity's poly,
but for the dominant case (same wall hit on both outer and inner)
that's still the correct attribution.
2. TransitionTypes.FindObjCollisions: drop the per-entity clear of
LastBspHitPoly. With BSPQuery now writing at hit-detection time
instead of response-computation time, the side-channel value is
reliable without per-iteration zeroing.
3. TransitionTypes [resolve-bldg] emission: key the "n/a (cylinder)"
label on `obj.CollisionType` directly, not on LastBspHitPoly being
null. A BSP entity with a null poly now logs "n/a (BSP path —
side-channel not written, missing BSPQuery wire site)" so any
future BSPQuery path that's missing the wire is visible in the
trace rather than being silently mis-labeled.
Verified: build green, the 2 slice-1 tests still pass, 8 pre-existing
failures unchanged.
Spec: docs/superpowers/specs/2026-05-13-l2d-cbuildingobj-collision-design.md
First capture (showing the label bug): launch-l2d-slice1.log lines

Adds ACDREAM_PROBE_BUILDING — a read-only per-shadow-entry probe that
captures full BSP collision evidence whenever TransitionTypes.FindObjCollisions
attributes a hit (via the existing L.2a slice 3 chain). One multi-line
[resolve-bldg] entry per attributed hit: partIdx, hasPhys, bspR vs
vAabbR, world-space entOrigin_lb, and the actual hit polygon's vertices
in both object-local and world space.
Paired with a one-time [entity-source] line at every ShadowObjects.Register
call site in GameWindow so entityId from a probe line is greppable to its
WorldEntity source within a single log file.
Plumbing: BSPQuery writes the resolved hit polygon to a new
PhysicsDiagnostics.LastBspHitPoly side-channel at the 5 SetCollisionNormal
sites in Paths 5/6 + CollideWithPt. TransitionTypes clears that field
before each shadow-entry dispatch and reads it back at the L.2a slice 3
attribution site to emit the probe line.
Spec component 4 originally described an out ResolvedPolygon? parameter
on BSPQuery.FindCollisions; the static side-channel achieves the same
observable behavior without plumbing through BSPQuery's recursive private
methods. Deviation noted in PhysicsDiagnostics.LastBspHitPoly's XML doc.
Reframes the plan-of-record's L.2d sub-direction paragraph: the 2026-05-12
handoff proposed porting CBuildingObj + per-cell walkability, but ACE
BuildingObj.cs:39-52 + named-retail acclient_2013_pseudo_c.txt:701260
show find_building_collisions is one BSP test on Parts[0]. Per-cell
walkability belongs to L.2e, not L.2d. L.2d slice 1 is the diagnostic;
slice 2 is the actual fix scoped from slice 1's evidence (one of three
hypotheses: wrong BSP loaded / over-registered parts / BSPQuery flaw).
Tests: 2 synthetic unit tests in PhysicsDiagnosticsTests.cs pin the
static API contract that the BSPQuery → side-channel → TransitionTypes
emission chain depends on. The multi-line line format itself is verified
by acceptance criterion 2 (live Holtburg-doorway capture) — covering it
here would require a heavy PhysicsEngine + Transition fixture for a
diagnostic-only emission.
Verified: dotnet build green; the 2 new tests pass; the 8 pre-existing
test failures listed in the L.2a handoff (MotionInterpreter GetMaxSpeed_*,
PositionManager.ComputeOffset_BothActive_Combined,
PlayerMovementController.Update_ForwardInput_*, Dispatcher.W_held_*,
BSPStepUpTests.{D4,C3}) remain failing — none introduced by this slice.

The CollisionInfo.CollideObjectGuids list + LastCollidedObjectGuid
fields existed but were never written anywhere in the codebase — slice
2's [resolve] probe found this when 85 hit=yes lines came back with
no obj= attribution.
This commit fills the gap at the only place we have the attribution
data: the per-object iteration in Transition.FindObjCollisions, where
obj.EntityId is in scope right after each per-object BSPQuery /
CylinderCollision call. Two cases trigger an Add():
- result != TransitionState.OK (object hard-blocked transition)
- normal flipped invalid→valid during the call (BSPQuery captured
a slide normal without halting — covers wall-slide cases).
Beyond the diagnostic, this also fixes a quiet structural gap — any
future physics behavior that wants "who did I just collide with"
(PvP exemption sanity check, NPC bump rules, etc.) was previously
flying blind on stub fields. Now the data flows.
Build green. Will re-test the doorway with the same trace to get
the wall's entity id.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Extends the existing [resolve] probe line to surface
ci.LastCollidedObjectGuid (hit object) + ci.CollidedWithEnvironment
(terrain hit flag) + ci.CollideObjectGuids.Count (when >1) so the
operator can tell WHICH entity the wall is, not just the wall normal.
Tonight's L.2a slice 1 trace caught a clean wall-slide at the
Holtburg-area doorway (n=(0,1,0), 122 hit=yes lines), but had no way
to attribute the hit to a specific entity — the L.2d sub-direction
call (door collision shape vs building wall mesh) needs the entity id
to pick the right fix. This extension provides it on the next run.
Format change for [resolve] hit field:
Before: hit=yes n=(0.00,1.00,0.00)
After: hit=yes n=(0.00,1.00,0.00) obj=0xCC0CXXXX
hit=yes n=(0.00,1.00,0.00) env
hit=yes n=(0.00,1.00,0.00) obj=0xCC0CXXXX env nObj=3
Pure additive within the existing PhysicsDiagnostics.ProbeResolveEnabled
gate. No new env var, no new file. Build green.

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

Adds per-entity part-transform side-table mirroring _rotationByEntity.
SpawnFromHook now transforms the hook offset through partTransforms[partIndex]
before rotating to world space. Backwards-compatible: entities without
registered part transforms fall through to identity (pre-C.1.5b behavior),
so the existing C.1.5a rotation-seed test stays green.
Adds SetEntityPartTransforms public method. Cleared on StopAllForEntity
alongside the rotation entry.
2 new xUnit tests:
- SpawnFromHook_AppliesPartTransform_WhenRegistered — part 1 lifted +Z=1,
hook offset (1,0,0), PartIndex=1 → world (1,0,1).
- SpawnFromHook_FallsBackToIdentity_WhenPartIndexOutOfBounds — PartIndex=99
on a 2-part array → offset applied without crash, pre-C.1.5b behavior.
Closes the renderer side of #56. EntityScriptActivator wiring (Task 3)

LandblockLoader.BuildEntitiesFromInfo restarted nextId at 1 per landblock,
producing colliding entity.Id values across landblocks. EntityClassificationCache
keys by entity.Id alone, so cross-LB collisions caused cache pollution:
multiple stabs sharing id=1 -> cache entry for id=1 ended up with the
CONCATENATION of multiple entities' batches -> buildings rendered up in the
air with wrong textures (visual gate observation 2026-05-10).
Audit at docs/research/2026-05-10-tier1-mutation-audit.md did not verify
entity.Id uniqueness - that was an unchecked assumption. Cache design
trusted entity.Id was globally unique; for stabs it wasn't.
Fix: optional landblockId parameter on BuildEntitiesFromInfo. When non-zero,
stab Ids are namespaced as 0xC0XXYY00 + nextId, matching the scenery
(0x80XXYY00) and interior (0x40XXYY00) namespacing already in GameWindow.cs.
The 0xC0 top byte distinguishes stabs from those. Existing tests pass
landblockId=0 and keep their legacy starting-from-1 behavior.
Known latent: if any one landblock has >256 stabs, nextId overflows the
low byte. Same pattern + same limitation as scenery/interior. Out of scope
for the immediate Tier 1 cache bug; not affecting current Holtburg play.
Adds 2 regression tests pinning the namespacing + the legacy fallback.

(position/rotation already set via the WorldEntity passed in).
Dynamic entities (NPCs, players) move every frame via direct
Position writes in GameWindow.cs. Migrated all three per-frame
write sites to SetPosition() (T8 mutator) so AabbDirty propagates:
- line 5942: player entity render position update
- line 6951: remote animated entity interpolated path
- line 7279: remote animated entity landing/movement path
The lazy RefreshAabb in WalkEntities catches up on the next frame
after any SetPosition call — render thread only, no races.
Build green, 986 passed / 8 pre-existing failures unchanged.

Widens LandblockMesh.Build's surfaceCache parameter from Dictionary to
IDictionary so any IDictionary implementation compiles at call sites.
Switches GameWindow._surfaceCache from Dictionary to ConcurrentDictionary
so T11's streaming worker can call Build off the render thread without
a lock.
The TryGetValue+assign lookup inside Build is not atomic, but BuildSurface
is deterministic (same palCode -> same SurfaceInfo), making last-write-wins
under concurrent access benign. Comment added at the pattern site.

Adds AabbMin/AabbMax (per-entity world-space bounding box) and AabbDirty
flag to WorldEntity. RefreshAabb() recomputes the box from Position ±5 m
(DefaultAabbRadius). SetPosition() writes Position and marks the cache
dirty so the dispatcher calls RefreshAabb on first read rather than
carrying stale bounds.
AabbDirty defaults to true on construction — freshly-built entities have
zero AabbMin/AabbMax until RefreshAabb is called. Two new conformance tests
verify the ±5 m geometry and the dirty/clean state machine.
Per Phase A.5 spec §4.6 Change #2.

Resolves Adjustment 4 (Option A): WorldEntity now carries the server-
sent AnimPartChange data as PartOverrides and a HiddenPartsMask bitmask.
EntitySpawnAdapter.OnCreate populates AnimatedEntityState from these
fields at spawn time. GameWindow's CreateObject handler converts the
network-layer AnimPartChange records into lightweight PartOverride
structs.
This unblocks Task 22: the WbDrawDispatcher can now resolve per-part
GfxObj overrides and hidden-part suppression from entity state.

Phase N.1 step 8 (final code cleanup): now that ACDREAM_USE_WB_SCENERY
has been default-on (commit b84ecbd), remove the legacy in-line
algorithms so we don't accumulate dead-code drift.
Deleted:
- SceneryGenerator.UseWbScenery (feature flag)
- SceneryGenerator.IsOnRoad / DisplaceObject / RoadHalfWidth (legacy
ports — Generate used to call them)
- The legacy in-line implementation in Generate()
- SceneryGeneratorTests.DisplaceObject_* (test the deleted method)
- SceneryWbConformanceTests.cs entirely (purpose served — proved
equivalence pre-migration; would compare WB to WB after delete)
Renamed:
- GenerateViaWb -> GenerateInternal (it's the only path now)
Kept:
- Public IsRoadVertex predicate (small surface, useful)
- WbSceneryAdapter (consumed by GenerateInternal)
- All WbSceneryAdapterTests (still cover the adapter)

Phase N.1 step 7: flips ACDREAM_USE_WB_SCENERY to default-on after
visual verification at Holtburg confirmed Issue #49's previously
missing edge-vertex trees are still visible and rotation is correct.
A known cosmetic difference (the road-edge tree at landblock 0xA9B1)
remains. ACME WorldBuilder applies an additional per-vertex road
check that suppresses it; we tried adding it (commit e279c46) but
it over-suppressed in other landblocks (reverted in 677a726). Filed
as a follow-up issue in ISSUES.md (added in Task 8).
ACDREAM_USE_WB_SCENERY=0 still reverts to the legacy path. Task 8
will delete the legacy path entirely once a session passes without
visual regressions on default-on.
