- ItemManager(uint seed, ...) refuses seed 0 and seeds Random from it.
- RunStart.ItemSeed(galaxy, step) is public (formula unchanged), refuses a
zero result; named steps ArenaStep, StageStep, ContinueStep and NoRunSeed.
- Continue seeds the item stream from the saved run's seed (ContinueStep);
a scene with no galaxy uses NoRunSeed.
- Zone's unpack scatter draws SimulationDice.For(CombatSeed, ScatterStream,
1-based pack ordinal), never the item stream.
- Loadout's scratch manager and AetherDb's catalog command take fixed seeds;
every test and Editor construction gains 1u (mechanical rewrite).

Ambient Fog Light leaves Zone Brushes (root object, same pose) and Sector Tint.mat moves from
PowerBrush to Brushes/Ambient Brush: brightness falls as exp(-x^2 ln(1/_EdgeBrightness)), x in
units of Zone.PopulatedRadius. ZoneRenderer.FitAmbientLight, called by LoadZone, is the one
writer of the quad's size and _Reach (the radius where it is 1e-5 of the centre). AmbientEdgeVerify
renders the real scene object through that call. Builds in Unity 6000.3.24f1.

GameplaySettings carries ShipLayerHeight 3, OrbitalLayerHeight 15, FloaterLayerHeight 0 (authored in Settings.asset).
Entity.LayerHeight (Ship, OrbitalEntity) is the one offset RideHeight adds; DrawAhead.FloaterHeight is the floater
height ItemPickup and MineInstance draw at. HullData.GridOffset (Key 26) and the pickup/mine/prefab GridOffset fields
are gone with every reader. Fixtures (DrawnPose, FireControl*, ImpactFeedback) take heights from the layer owner;
LayerTests pin each kind's layer. FloatingItemsDrawnSmoke follows. ItemPickup/MineInstance.Bind take the settings from
ZoneRenderer. Builds as one commit with its tests; not compile-verified until the cut's head run.

Planets, belts, wells, loot, mines, stations, the chunk reticle and the flow
clock are evaluated through DrawAhead (Time, Orbit, Height, Position) at one
drawn time; the rail law lives once in Zone.Offset; OrbitPositionAt, GetHeight,
ChunkPose, EvaluateBelt and RideHeight take a time. Fixes the planet jumping
against a co-moving ship at display rates above the step rate.
Not yet built or run (Unity presenter files are verified by compile only on
Starfire).

Both label loops wait on Time.time against the pickup's own persist and fade
durations plus a second, not 1200 frames; Step's guard is a 300 s real-time
budget, not 3000 frames. Batch frames can be far shorter than a game second,
so a frame count could expire before the label faded (follow-up
floating-items-smoke-label-fade-flake). Not yet run in Unity.

The pull-progress input came from FieldTester.PullProgress, so a mutant of that function agreed with itself. The smoke now spells the pull start from Extend and Envelop independently.
Builds; both smokes green; Unity mutant u-f killed.

PickupTests: TheBeamTakesFromWhicheverBayCanStore is a theory over which bay is full.
CapabilityPresentationSmoke: tracked ship's hull hit is drawn; a beam above the held point stays on the ground plane; a grab at the beam keeps its aim; the other entity's grab reaches its own bound beam and not this one.
FloatingItemsDrawnSmoke: a held item's label comes up; the test scene's stand-in pose equals the zone's held pose.
Zone.HeldPull is the one smoothstep of the held pose; FieldDriver's tendril and FieldTester's stand-in call it (FieldTester.PulledPosition, PullProgress), deleting the two copies.
All commits build (Unity compile and both smokes green).

ZoneRenderer draws one ItemPickup per FloatingItem (load, ObserveAdd, ObserveRemove, ClearZone); ItemPickup.Bind places it
from the sim body and spins it for show. EntityInstance's drop loops, ShieldManager's pickup branch (the whole
OnCollisionEnter, which did nothing else), ZoneRenderer.DropItem/DestroyLoot/_loot, TractorBeam's pull, and
GameSettings' three loot fields are deleted; WireFloatingItems stripped GridObject from the five pickup prefabs and
reassigned ZoneRenderer's four pickup fields in ARPG.unity; FloatingItemsDrawnSmoke (play session, batchmode) pins the
lowering. GridObject and TimedDestroy were deleted in fa911f2d, so fa911f2d and 2565e2c5 do not build in Unity.
Assets/Resources/Settings.asset keeps three stale serialized GameSettings fields Unity ignores (LFS object, not rewritten).
Builds: Unity batchmode compile green at this commit; dotnet green at 2565e2c5.
