Ports the retail client's client-side remote-entity motion pipeline
verbatim per the decompile research. Every remote now runs its own
PhysicsBody + MotionInterpreter + AnimationSequencer stack — retail has
no special "interpolator" for remotes, it runs the full motion state
machine on every entity. Now we do too.
## What changed
### Parser fixes (CreateObject, UpdateMotion)
Wire flag bits for InterpretedMotionState (per ACE MovementStateFlag enum):
CurrentStyle=0x01, ForwardCommand=0x02, ForwardSpeed=0x04,
SideStepCommand=0x08, SideStepSpeed=0x10, TurnCommand=0x20, TurnSpeed=0x40
Previously we only extracted CurrentStyle + ForwardCommand + ForwardSpeed
and SKIPPED the side/turn fields entirely. Result: we had zero rotation-
or strafe-intent data from the server — impossible to render turn or
sidestep animations. Now ServerMotionState carries all 7 fields and the
parser reads the bytes in ACE's write order (style, fwd, side, turn, then
fwdSpd, sideSpd, turnSpd).
### RemoteMotion (new per-remote struct in GameWindow)
Each remote gets its own PhysicsBody + MotionInterpreter + observed
angular velocity. Replaces the earlier shortcut RemoteInterpolator
(deleted — retail has no such thing).
On UpdateMotion:
- ForwardCommand flag absent → stop signal (reset to Ready) per
retail FUN_0051F260 bulk-copy semantics (absent = Invalid = default).
- Forward + sidestep + turn each route through DoInterpretedMotion,
exactly as retail FUN_00528F70 does.
- Animation cycle selection: forward wins if active, else sidestep,
else turn, else Ready. Matches the user's observation that retail
plays turn animation when only turning.
- Turn command seeds ObservedOmega = π/2 × turnSpeed (from Humanoid
MotionData.Omega.Z ≈ π/2 per decompile).
- Turn absent → ObservedOmega = 0 (stops rotation immediately).
On UpdatePosition:
- Hard-snap Body.Position + Body.Orientation per retail FUN_00514b90
set_frame (direct assignment, no slerp — retail does not soft-snap).
- HasVelocity + |v| < 0.2 → StopCompletely + SetCycle(Ready).
- ForwardSpeed=0 on wire is a VALID stop signal (ACE sends this when
alt releases W); previously we defaulted to 1.0, causing the "slow
walk that never stops" symptom.
Per-tick:
- apply_current_movement → Body.Velocity via get_state_velocity
(retail FUN_00528960: RunAnimSpeed × ForwardSpeed in body-local,
rotated by orientation).
- Manual omega integration: Orientation *= quat(ObservedOmega × dt).
Bypasses PhysicsBody.update_object's MinQuantum=1/30s gate that
was eating every-other-tick rotation updates at our 60fps render
rate — the cause of the persistent "rotation snaps every UP" bug.
- update_object still called for position integration and the motion
subsystem it drives.
### AnimationSequencer synthesis extension
Added omega synthesis for TurnRight/TurnLeft cycles (same pattern as
the earlier velocity synthesis): when the Humanoid dat leaves HasOmega
clear, SetCycle synthesizes CurrentOmega = ±π/2 × speedMod on Z so
dead-reckoning and stop detection can read a non-zero omega for turn
cycles.
### Stop-detection heuristic removed
No more 300ms/2000ms/5000ms idle timers. Retail's stop signal is
explicit (UpdateMotion with ForwardCommand flag absent → Ready); we
handle it directly. Client-side timers were a source of flicker during
normal running.
## Confirmed working
- Walking (matches retail speed + leg cadence)
- Running (matches retail speed + leg cadence)
- Strafing (body moves sideways + strafe animation plays)
- Turning while stationary (body rotates smoothly + turn animation plays)
- Turning while running (body rotates + leg anim continues)
- Stopping (instant stop, no slow-walk tail)
All 717 tests green.
