Dry-run of scenario 1 (retail-v1-broken-offsets.log preserved as
audit trail) surfaced three issues with the v1 cdb script:
1. STACK-ARG OFFSETS WRONG: BP actions used arbitrary registers
(@edx, @edi) to read function args, but __thiscall puts non-this
args on the stack ([esp+N] after the return address). All 12 BP5
"adjust_sphere" hits printed Nx=0.0 Ny=0.0 ... — fields not read.
Fixed by writing a type dumper (a6-types-dump.cdb + runner) that
uses cdb's `dt` command against the loaded PDB to get authoritative
struct offsets. v2 probe script (to be written next) will use
double-indirect reads (dwo(poi(@esp+N)+offset)) with correct
offsets from the dump.
2. TEE-OBJECT UTF-16 ENCODING: PowerShell's default Tee-Object writes
UTF-16 LE with BOM, making logs unparseable by grep without
conversion. Runner now uses Out-File -Encoding ASCII. Sacrifices
live console echo; use `Get-Content -Tail 50 -Wait` in a separate
shell if live monitoring is needed.
3. BP6 SYMBOL NOT FOUND: `acclient!CTransition::validate_walkable`
doesn't exist in the PDB. Decomp at line 272811 has
`CTransition::check_walkable` — likely the actual name. To be
verified + fixed in v2.
The BP hit-count distribution from v1 is still meaningful diagnostic
data (14,318 transitional_insert + 16,558 find_collisions + 40
set_contact_plane + 12 adjust_sphere + 1 step_up + 1 set_collide in
a 2-second walk through the inn doorway). Preserved as a baseline
sanity-check the v2 distribution can be diffed against.
