Foundation work (6 commits ff548b9..f845b22) landed but visual
verification 2026-05-19 FAILED to fix the user-reported indoor bugs.
Documenting the deeper diagnosis + the next phase target without
reverting the foundation work.
What landed (kept):
- BSPQuery.FindWalkableInternal gained ref ushort hitPolyId (Task 1).
- New public BSPQuery.FindWalkableSphere wrapper over the existing
retail-faithful walkable finder (Task 2).
- Transition.TryFindIndoorWalkablePlane refactored through it,
PointInPolygonXY deleted (Task 3).
- [indoor-walkable] runtime-toggleable probe (Task 4).
- 5 new tests + 9 updated existing tests, all green; build clean.
What didn't fix: cellar descent FAIL, 2nd-floor walking FAIL
(intermittent falling-stuck), single-floor cottage REGRESSION (was
stable, now intermittent falling-stuck), phantom collisions PERSIST.
Probe evidence: 1443 MISS / 2 HIT over 1445 calls. Smoking gun:
foot-sphere-tangent-to-floor case fails PolygonHitsSpherePrecise's
|dist| > radius - epsilon check by ~0.0002. The BSP walker is
correct; the caller (TryFindIndoorWalkablePlane) is misusing it.
Root cause (deeper than originally diagnosed): TryFindIndoorWalkablePlane
exists only as a Phase 2 commit eb0f772 stop-gap. Retail doesn't
synthesize a ContactPlane per frame — retail RETAINS the previous
frame's plane when the BSP says no collision. Retail's find_walkable
only runs inside step_sphere_down (a sweep), never as a standing-still
query.
Next phase target: port retail's ContactPlane retention so the
resolver retains state across frames. Likely eliminates the per-frame
TryFindIndoorWalkablePlane call entirely. Foundation work (BSP walker
+ probe + tests) remains useful regardless.
ISSUES #83 remains OPEN with the deeper diagnosis.
Roadmap header updated to reflect partial-ship status.
