The register row predicted "catching or stopping on a doorway sill". That
symptom could not have been occurring. `Transition.BspOnlyDispatch`
(TransitionTypes.cs:1348, landed 2026-05-25 as A6.P7) already skipped both
primitive branches (:3911, :3954) whenever the target's wire PhysicsState
carries HAS_PHYSICS_BSP_PS, and ACE sets that bit from CSetup.HasPhysicsBSP
for every affected Setup. The extra primitive was never tested for collision.
The live defect was CELL MEMBERSHIP. The same shape list feeds
`ShadowObjectRegistry.BuildFloodSpheres`, which had no such guard and
preferred Cylinders over everything whenever any Cylinder existed — retail's
SECOND priority applied ahead of its first. For the 73 CylSphere+BSP Setups
acdream therefore flooded shadow cells from the cylinder and never from the
slab: an object absent from cells it physically occupies, which is the
#98 / #168 symptom class, not the door-collision class the row named.

9e847e2f-777c-4bd9-886c-22256bb87f32, check_exe_pdb.py MATCH) rather than
taken from Binary Ninja, which drops flag tests:

Priority at both consumers: BSP -> CylSphere -> Sphere -> nothing. BSP wins.
Every address above was resolved back to its symbol by exact lookup in
named-retail/symbols.json.
Changes:
* `ShadowShapeBuilder.FromSetup` gains a step-0 dispatch gate. Steps 1 and 2
are skipped entirely when any part's EFFECTIVE GfxObj carries a physics
BSP. The gate and step 3 now share one `EffectivePartGfxObjId` helper, so
they cannot read different identities — a gate on `setup.Parts` would,
after an ObjDesc swap, suppress the primitives while step 3 emitted
nothing and `Build` returned null, deleting the entity's collision.
Emission order is unchanged. This also removes acdream's undeclared
reliance on the server sending the flag: the gate is derived from the
parts, exactly as CPartArray::CacheHasPhysicsBSP @0x00518110 derives it.
* `ShadowObjectRegistry.BuildFloodSpheres` now applies calc_cross_cells'
own order: BSP, else Cylinder, else everything. Given the gate above this
is a no-op for every shape list acdream produces (FromSetup is now
exclusive; both landblock-static publishers already emit homogeneous
lists), so the measured membership delta remains attributable to the
gate alone. It is kept for the same reason BspOnlyDispatch is kept: retail
genuinely dispatches here, and it guards a future additive producer.
`Transition.BspOnlyDispatch` is deliberately untouched.
Register: AP-152 RETIRED with its four false statements corrected — the risk
statement (the symptom was already inert); "small and centred at the part
origin" (max primitive is 6.714 m, and 0x0200086E's sphere origin is
(0.759, 0.165, 5.842)); the cottage door's "~14 cm base Sphere" (it is
0.100 m; 0.141 is Setup.Radius, which AP-22 proved is never collision
geometry); and naming one pinning test where two existed. AP-153/154/155
filed: retail's dispatch flag is cached once at InitPartArrayObject+0x7e
where acdream's gate is live; the query-time guard takes a client-derived
flag off the wire; and the static publishers emit Setup Spheres as
height-capped Cylinders while BuildFloodSpheres approximates retail's
bounding box with bounding spheres.
Tests. Both pinning tests corrected, neither deleted:
`FromSetup_DoorSetup_ProducesFourShapes` -> `..._EmitsBspPartsOnly`;
`FromSetup_DoorSetup_SphereAtExpectedLocalOffset` re-hosted on
`_ => false`, the DAT-real configuration for the 3,605 Sphere-only Setups.
`FromSetup_ScaleFactor_MultipliesAllRadiiAndOffsets` was the campaign's
eighth green test covering nothing — its assertions sat inside
`if (CollisionType == Cylinder)` on a fixture with zero CylSpheres, so only
`Scale == 2.0f` ever ran. Proved empirically: with the sphere radius scale
deleted, the old body passes and the corrected body fails. Three new facts:
the effective-identity gate, the App-layer CylSphere+BSP registration (no
App fixture combined the two before), and the flood-set dispatch. One new
installed-DAT sweep pins 172 affected Setups (73 CylSphere+BSP, 99
Sphere+BSP) behind external bucket controls, re-measured independently and
agreeing exactly with the filing commit's separate sweep.
All eight sabotages run and reported; every discriminating fact reddens in
the intended direction and only there. Clean Release build after deleting
every bin/obj: 0 errors. Complete suite 11,203 passed / 4 skipped / 0
failed, +5 on the 11,198 baseline at ec29a732 — exactly the five added
facts, no new skips.
Blast radius, corrected: the FromSetup half is graphical-only (its sole
production caller is LiveEntityCollisionBuilder in AcDream.App, which
AcDream.Headless cannot reference — Headless -> Runtime -> Core/Content).
The BuildFloodSpheres half lives in AcDream.Core and DOES execute in
Headless via LandblockPhysicsContentBuilder, but is behaviour-neutral there
because both of that builder's registrations pass homogeneous lists.
Headless suite green at 89/89.
NOT yet gated live: this changes shadow-cell membership for 22 Setups used
by 151 Door weenies and 38 stationary props. Needs a connected session.
