The round the owner asked for, with three corrections from Codex that are worth more
than the features.
WHAT LANDED
- The complete tunnel floor profile is authored into FCachedTunnel during
BuildChunkCache, not derived per sample. This was his point: "it should be done at
creation time, since it knows its destination."
- Room floor ownership blends/clips the tunnel floor at mouths -- his A > B boolean.
- The traversal validator gained a climb tier, structured exactly as agreed:
bWalkOnlyCanReachDeparture / bClimbCanReachDeparture kept SEPARATE, with
WalkOnly / Climb / MineRequired cell counts reported alongside.
The comment in the header states the contract: "The primordial capability contract
is walk-only... climb is reported as a separate tier and never makes the hard
connectivity verdict pass." That is the distinction we wanted: reporting tiers, not
permission.
- Floor controls exposed under Cave Morphology|Tunnels|Floor.
⚠️ CORRECTION 1 -- LARGE LEDGES ARE NOT CAPABILITY-SAFE YET, so they stay opt-in.
default (preference 0) fit 20,804 walk reach 10,884 0 ledges
preference 2 fit 20,765 walk reach 10,712 360 ledges
Ledges cost 172 walk-reachable cells. Codex kept preference 0 (the old staircase) as
the default rather than shipping the owner's preferred look at the price of walkable
space, and led its report with that. Correct call.
⚠️ CORRECTION 2 -- THE BACKSTOP STILL CANNOT GO. Support/room fallback counters were
zero, but the structural protection clamp fired on 31,017 of 31,017 authored floor
samples -- 100%. So the shape is still not correct by construction; the clamp is
doing the work. Instrumenting it was the right move: we now have a number instead of
an argument.
⚠️ CORRECTION 3 -- THE "X + 2A" CLEARANCE BUDGET IS NOT IMPLEMENTABLE AS I SPECIFIED.
Interval propagation bounds FIELD VALUES, not SPATIAL DISPLACEMENT. Deriving A needs
a proven Lipschitz/influence bound for every post-operation, which we do not have.
Both the owner and I assumed the interval work already gave us this; it does not.
The idea is still right, the prerequisite is a displacement bound.
MEASURED BY ME: build 0 errors; export 1.365 / 1.357 / 1.420 s (checkpoint was
1.321 / 1.357), flat within noise; 153,346 triangles.
ALSO MEASURED THIS ROUND
- Edit cost: 8 affected chunks, 195.5 ms total -- generation 195.471 ms, apply 0.059,
diff 0.020, queue 0.001. It is full level-0 regeneration; a dirty-mesh path needs
partial section support that is unavailable without modifying RMC.
- Streaming caps: effective generation cap 14, pending max 14, CAP HIT. Mesh applies
per frame 4 (not hit), 2 ms apply budget (not hit), unloads 6 (not hit).
⇒ The generation core cap is what binds during startup fill.
- Peak export RSS 1.70 GB (was 19.5 GB before the memory work).
- LOD4 empty outliers gone. LOD0 not solved: 4,600 empty tiles at 3 us median, but 11
mixed-classifier fallbacks over 100 ms, max 554 ms -- verdict=Mixed, then the full
mesher, producing no triangles.
⚠️ UNVERIFIED AND CONCERNING: the reported in-game meshed times are far worse than
412a7ad's -- p50 498.8 ms vs 115 ms, p95 1.227 s vs 410 ms, max 1.974 s vs 844 ms.
The samples differ (9,336 ready events vs 841 requests, different traversal, possibly
queue wait included), and the export path is flat, so I do not know whether this is a
real regression or a different measurement. I have NOT reproduced it myself. It is
the first thing the next round must settle.
