Erik 7f1c1f5aa6 feat(physics): C4 route 4b-2 — remote far snap through the canonical placement 
Flips the SetPositionSimple classification (contact, PlayerDistance >= 96 m) for
remotes onto 4b-1's drive controller and deletes both legacy far blocks, both
duplicated 96f/4f constant pairs, and both `?? Vector3.Zero` fabrications. The
4 m constant now exists exactly once. Teleport and cell-less stay legacy for
4b-3.

Retail: MoveOrTeleport @0x00516330's far branch runs StopInterpolating
@0x005163CB before SetPositionSimple @0x005163D9 and returns 1 @0x005163E8
regardless — the SetPositionError is discarded — so HandleReceivedPosition arms
ConstrainTo @0x00454272 post-move on commit AND on failure. The x87 parity
decode at @0x00516393-@0x0051639E puts exactly 96.0 on the far branch.
SetPositionSimple @0x005162B0 builds flags 0x1012 at @0x005162C4.

Non-commit outcomes still advance the body, because retail's SetPositionInternal
@0x00515BD0 commits the destination via store_position @0x00515CE2 when no cell
resolves. The partition is by STAGE, not heuristic, enforced by an exhaustive
switch: Refused/Contention/NotApplicable/RejectedPreparation store (the placement
never executed); Committed/Deferred/RejectedByPlacement do not (the engine ran
and refused, matching retail's non-storing returns @0x00515CB2 and @0x00515CD5).
Without this a refused far snap froze the remote with an emptied queue.

Also fixes a shipped defect this route made live: ParkDeferred's quiescence parks
withdrew the entity (InWorld=false, clock suspended, residency removed) and were
never restorable, while Forget(restoreCancelledPark: true) runs for every
accepted Position on every entity. The restorable decision now lives inside
ParkDeferred AFTER SnapToCell, reading body.CellPosition.ObjCellId — the value
RestoreParkWithdrawal actually restores at — against every live quiescence
rather than one minimum-OperationId token. The three pre-snap fields are hoisted
into locals because SnapToCell ends with InWorld = true. ParkCollisionResidents
passes restorableOnCancel: false explicitly; the plain unplaceable park is
provably unchanged. RestoreParkWithdrawal re-tests the prefix at restore time so
a retained route-2 park cannot re-admit into a prefix that began quiescing
during the park.

CanAttemptDestination is retained as an OPTIMISATION only, with the two Core
predicates it cannot reproduce written down at the pre-flight, plus the two
properties that depend on it staying there.

Four fix rounds and eight Opus reviews. The slice was fully green at 10,990,
10,997 and 11,004 while containing real defects — a frozen remote pinned as
correct by its own test, a fallback that over-wrote on the exact retail paths
that decline to store, and a park guard incomplete on two independent axes.

Register: AP-137 (leftover classifications take AP-87's catch-up; states the
cell-less enqueue-vs-place delta deferred to 4b-3, that RejectedData is applied
anyway, and the headless divergence), AP-138 (the refusable far placement),
AP-136 narrowed to match the relocation. #309's acceptance steps rewritten —
step 5 previously asserted a recovery the code does not perform — and gated on a
new ACDREAM_PROBE_PARK=1 signal so the check cannot pass while broken.

Suite 11,009 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed against a measured 10,968 baseline.
The 10,973 figure recorded earlier was wrong and is corrected here.

Connected gate outstanding: the two-client far-snap walk and #309.

acdream documentation map

This page is the entry point for project documentation. It distinguishes current sources of truth from implementation history so an old plan or issue banner cannot silently override the current program state.

Current snapshot — 2026-07-27

  • Milestone state: M3, “Cast a spell,” landed 2026-07-21. M4, “Live in the world,” is active.
  • M4 gameplay program: resume the pre-M4 world-interaction completion program. Favorite-spell overflow, status Use/Assess, and the complete assessment surface are user-accepted. Equipped-child picking and vendor browse/transactions remain Slices 4–6.
  • Structural/runtime state: all eight GameWindow decomposition slices, Modern Runtime Slices A–J, and the connected visual/lifecycle gates are complete. GameWindow is a 1,622-line composition/callback shell. AcDream.Runtime.GameRuntime owns canonical session, entity/object, gameplay, movement, physics, projectile, environment, and portal state; graphical and no-window hosts borrow the same owner graph.
  • Headless state: Slice K is complete. AcDream.Headless is a presentation-free Windows/Linux host with deterministic commands/events, shared immutable content, multi-session isolation, reconnect, resource telemetry, and 1/5/10/30-session gates. The final two-account native-Linux soak completed ten minutes, logged out through ACE, and converged every ownership ledger.
  • Linux graphical state: Slice L0 and the L1 implementation checkpoint are complete at 66f114b2 and 11501d52. Native Windows passes the active modern-GL/audio/window smoke. WSLg X11/Wayland correctly reject their missing GL_ARB_bindless_texture. Physical-Linux validation and L2–L6 are explicitly deferred; resume at the supported AMD/NVIDIA L1 gate.
  • Completed gameplay gates: R6 locomotion/collision/projectile/teleport/ radar, two-client portal-out/materialization, indoor prepared collision, loot ordering, local/remote ground drops, and selection-marker lifetime.
  • Separate visual verification: issue #225, the shared-alpha lifestone/particle result; its connected resource-lifetime and performance routes pass.
  • Carried behaviour debt: issue #153 (far teleport onto an unstreamed edge), #116 (narrowed slide response), #235 (capped/RDP jump cadence), and the active temporary-stopgap rows in the divergence register.
  • Divergence audit: 189 active rows — IA 18, AD 38, AP 91, TS 38, and UN 4 — plus retained struck/retired historical rows such as TS-37.
  • Latest automated baseline: the Release build succeeds with the 17 test-project warnings tracked by issue #228; 8,826 tests pass and five are intentionally skipped. App passes 3,763 / 3 skips. The L1 Windows supported smoke and WSLg X11/Wayland negative-capability reports all end with zero window/GL/input/audio ownership.

Sources of truth

Read these in this order when deciding what to do next:

  1. plans/2026-05-12-milestones.md — the active playable outcome, freeze boundaries, and visual gates.
  2. plans/2026-04-11-roadmap.md — strategic phase ledger: shipped, active, deferred, and future work.
  3. ISSUES.md — tactical defects and small follow-ups. The status inside an issue is authoritative; physical order is not.
  4. architecture/retail-divergence-register.md — every known place runtime behavior can differ from retail.
  5. architecture/acdream-architecture.md and architecture/code-structure.md — ownership, dependency, update-thread, and extraction rules.
  6. architecture/worldbuilder-inventory.md — rendering/DAT code already owned in-tree versus mechanisms still ours to port.

If these disagree, milestones control the current outcome, the roadmap controls work ordering, the issue status controls the individual defect, and the architecture documents control implementation shape. Reconcile the stale document in the same change; do not leave both claims standing.

Research and implementation records

  • research/named-retail/ is the primary retail oracle: named pseudo-C, headers, symbols, and types from the Sept 2013 build.
  • research/decompiled/ is the older Ghidra fallback.
  • research/ contains focused pseudocode, traces, fixtures, and gate reports. A dated research note records evidence; it does not become a new roadmap.
  • superpowers/specs/ and superpowers/plans/ are per-slice design and execution records. Completed plans remain historical.
  • audit/ contains completion and conformance audits.
  • reference/ace-commands.md preserves the local ACE server's complete in-game command catalog and points to the authoritative per-command help surface.

Durable memory

  • ../claude-memory/MEMORY.md indexes the live subsystem memories and the render/physics digests. Read a domain digest before changing that subsystem, especially its DO-NOT-RETRY table.
  • ../memory/ contains stable engineering references such as the modern rendering pipeline, two-tier streaming, and toolchain notes.

Memory accelerates recall; it does not outrank the canonical documents above. When current truth changes, update the relevant canonical document and distill only the durable lesson into memory.

Historical and deprecated documents

  • bugs.md is the April 2026 bug snapshot. It is preserved for archaeology and is not an active ledger.
  • Dated plans and specs describe the decision at that time. Their completion wording is historical unless the current milestone/roadmap explicitly links the item as active.
  • Old R1→R8 architecture sequencing is superseded. Current execution comes from the milestones and strategic roadmap.

Documentation maintenance rules

  • Update milestone, roadmap, issue, divergence, architecture, and memory claims in the same commit when a shipped change affects them.
  • Keep one issue ID per defect. Narrow an issue in place; do not reuse another issue's number as a shorthand.
  • Mark automated, connected, and visual gates separately. An automated pass is not a visual acceptance, and an RDP throughput sample is not a local-display visual comparison.
  • Preserve research history, but remove stale “current/next” claims from living documents once the state advances.
