The horizon fault was the level XZ projection, not the distance (operator, 2026-10-29). The untargeted look point is 10000 along the aim again, so the camera no longer jumps where the view ray crosses a terrain discontinuity; group aim points and crosshairs lift each planar firing bearing by the aim's pitch. Reverts the surface march of aba02182b and the field-height crosshair of a9bbea509.

The allocator already serves a turn by the best-ratio thrusters first; the axis was a fraction of total yaw, so a hull whose best-ratio pair holds little of it (the Longinus's front pair) saturated them in the first tenth of input and lurched on its drives. Ship.BandedTurn maps the player's axis so each band joins over an equal share of travel; full input is still full yaw. AI and the allocator are unchanged (operator request, 2026-10-29).

Release or reversal starts the ramp again from zero (operator request, 2026-10-29: the Longinus lurches).

Only slots the input settings define, only groups with weapons, and never over gear or consumables the player placed. Runs on binding to a ship and after a save's bindings restore. Replaces a lazy Zip that never ran (operator request, 2026-10-29).

With no target the look point sat 10000 along the camera direction, so crosshairs and shot visuals aimed at the horizon (operator report, 2026-10-29).

On a slope the level projection floated over downhill aim and sank into uphill aim (operator report, 2026-10-29).

- 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).

BossOf refuses typed (BossRefusal Unset or Missing, Describe names the field and echoes no input).
ZoneGenerator builds the boss from the Loadout with ChooseProduct as the chooser; a refused or
unbuildable boss logs and spawns none. Galaxy picks boss factions through BossOf; AetherDb factions
prints the boss Loadout. Loadout vocabulary: no preset, no variant. Production builds; the tests
project does not until the next commit (RunGoalTests still sets BossHull).

Code from eureka/aetheria-release-faction-curated-place-names. Conflicts kept both sides: Faction holds Assembly (key 19) and Places (key 21); AetherDb dispatches assembly-from-maker, place-names and doctrine-catalog, and its usage names both; FlightTests counts the Faction wire at 22 slots (19 is Assembly, 21 is Places).
The two LFS files are the merge's resolution, replayed on the post-assembly bytes, never merged as text or by side.
GameData/Aetheria.cc, per h1's two-step replay: (1) AetherDb place-names apply built at the branch's commit 1 (740e1ee7, merged onto the assembly merge so key 19 survives), run on the post-assembly catalog: purges the Markov NameFile records while their type exists and authors 15 place lists; (2) place-names apply built at this merged tree, run on step 1's output: authors Miss Terri's list (1 list). Each step's second apply said nothing to do and left the bytes identical; the whole chain run twice from the assembly catalog gave bytes equal except the record write timestamps (masked, both hash alike). Decoded independently with cultcache-py: 16 factions, key 19 Assembly filled on the 15 makers (Ewan Hart has none), key 21 Places 20 names on all 16, key 9 nil on all, no namefile type among the 321 records.
Assets/Resources/Settings.asset: the post-assembly file (Rarity values removed) with the four NameGeneratorSettings lines removed (NameGeneratorSettings, MinLength 5, MaxLength 10, Order 3).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The NameFile records went with commit 2's apply, so the type, Faction key 9
(left as a retired-key comment), NameGeneratorSettings and its parameter on
Galaxy and GalaxyStage, the Settings.asset block, the Name Tools editor
window, the Geonames resources, the purge leg of place-names and the
minor-power and Pirates commands' name-file lookups all go. The Pirates
missing-name-file test pins a retired rule and goes with it. Factions shows a
places count where the geonames column was. Unity compile owed at merge.

PlanetSafetyRadius, ChildDistanceMinimum/Maximum, ExpandSolar's distance series

lightest family while the outermost overflows, stretches to the window, merges
rings that cannot keep their heavy member outside its Roche margin and sets
belt half widths. Stations pick well-bearing, sibling-clear off-ring bodies;

Refuses names the filesystem rewrites (dot names, trailing dot or space, device names, stream colon), anything that does not
resolve to a strict child of the mods folder under the same name, and link packages. A fault with no known package names
(all mods), so no Remove button. A removal drops only its own button and the dialog returns to the rest.
Unity compile not yet run.

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.

- ActionGameManager: the visible hostile/friendly indicators and MenuMap.Position read DrawAhead.Position at Clock.Lead.
- DrawAhead.Round drops its lead parameter: the target's lead is the drawn time less its zone's step time, derived inside,
so a caller cannot pass two times that disagree. Projectile and BallisticFlightTests updated; the hit tests derive their
lead from the drawn time; two assertions that only varied the now-absent lead are removed.
- Zone.RailAt logs "Requested orbit is not part of this zone!" for a missing parent again (DrawnPoseTests.AMissingParentOrbitIsLoggedAtADrawnTime).
Builds: not yet compiled at this commit (verified by the run that follows).

HUD target, lock, incoming-lock, bearing and sweep markers anchor on DrawAhead.Position / AtBearing at Clock.Lead.
GravityLowering's record fill is DrawAhead.Well (pure, pinned at non-zero lead). Rounds take DrawAhead.Time
instead of float Zone.Time + lead. Sensor ping, shield hit, compass icons, wormhole bearing, loot ViewOrigin and
the guided-projectile aim read the drawn pose. Not built in Unity yet.

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.

Entity.AimedAt (AimTarget: a revealed item or a believed mount) replaces
TargetItem. Two writers, TrySelectTargetItem (IsRevealed) and TrySelectMount
(in LayoutOf, not seen destroyed); ResolvedAim re-validates both on every read.
AimCycle is SchematicRows' enemy rows minus mounts in the observer's
seen-destroyed record, written only in Sense through PerceivesDestroyed.
SchematicRows drops its covering filter. IsLocated and AimsAtMount are deleted;
PendingShot.AimedMount and Silhouette's HardpointData mount replace the bool.
The cycle key calls Entity.CycleAim; the schematic marks read ResolvedAim.
Entity.ToString names an entity (follow-up entity-formats-safely).
The slot is AimedAt, not Aim: Entity.Aim is the pilot's pointing direction.
Not yet built or run; ActionGameManager and SchematicDisplay are uncompiled
without Unity.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
TrySelectTargetItem and ResolvedTargetItem gate on FireControl.IsLocated (an item seen to act, or one on a mount of the
believed hull's layout) instead of IsRevealed; Combat keeps IsRevealed. Entity.LayoutOf derives the layout from the
Contact profile; SchematicRows appends a mount row per unclaimed hardpoint. A mount aim centres on the mount's cells and
is frozen per shot (PendingShot.AimAtMount). The cycle runs over located items, the schematic renders mount rows and
marks through SchematicRow.Marks. Not yet built or tested.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Entity.RevealedGear and SchematicRows' enemy branch (revealed weapons then revealed gear); SchematicRow.Range is float? (null for a non-weapon claim); SchematicDisplay shows ShowGear rows for non-weapon claims and hides the range label when null; SchematicListElement.ShowGear. ActionGameManager: one progress-indicator list (lock weapons hostile-gated, scanners ungated) and the incoming indicator follows Track or Scan paints. Not Unity-compiled yet; Shared tests unaffected by the UI files.

The hostility stamp (Reveal.Hostile, Contact.Hostile) is deleted: the observer knows its own
stance live. The real fault was the IFF override being dropped when its subject departs while
the book still remembers it; the override now goes when the book drops the subject (ReleaseStance),
so RememberedHostiles reads IsHostileTo. A ship removed from the zone clears its paint inbox and
incoming warnings at the owner, so the Parent == null gate in ActionGameManager is deleted.
Tests pin both stance directions after the act, the departed override hostile, the exclusive
memory window at the equality, and the empty inbox. Unbuilt until the verify job; Unity side not compiled.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
RememberedHostiles read the stance the freshest reveal was made under (Reveal.Hostile, surfaced as Contact.Hostile) instead of IsHostileTo now, so a hostile held by the observer's override keeps its marker and the music after it dies or warps, until the bearing lapses. The departure test no longer re-sets the override. New tests: the Detected clause for an in-zone lapsed hostile, position independence for far hostiles on three sides, a within-category lie in ClaimedClasses, and the stale warning of a docked ship. The HUD no longer collects sweeps for a docked ship, and a sweep flash resets the pooled lock indicator's motion.
Untested here: the Unity-side changes (ActionGameManager) have no headless test and no compile has run.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Entity.RememberedHostiles and ClaimedClasses derive from the book; music and the new markers share RememberedHostiles.

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).

IGrabPresenter.Grab(GrabEvent) only; the binder's Transform and velocity resolvers go. TractorBeam
presents a running grab (aims at Started's TargetPosition, emits at Power, dark otherwise). FieldDriver
draws its tendril from GrabEvents alone with a real-time phase clock over each event's PhaseDuration and
writes no transform and destroys nothing; its grab times move to FieldTester, now the scene's stand-in sim
that owns its pickup's timeline and pose. ItemPickup keeps its label lit while held. ImpactPresenterSmoke
becomes CapabilityPresentationSmoke with a grab section; its two untracked-ship expectations follow
DrawsAt since contact-hud. Builds (Unity 6000.3.24f1 batchmode: smoke ok, scene opens, no missing script).

Selection is nothing the selected ship can sense: TargetedBy, TargetedByCount, their subscriptions and the music
read of them are deleted. Indicator fills, the target panel, the compass, music and the enemy schematic rows now
read CurrentEntity's ContactOf / RevealsOf / RevealedSubjects (new, the book's keys); the schematic rows are built
by one builder from the book and rebuilt when the revealed set changes. Impact hull effect and projectile hit
effects at another ship's position draw only through ActionGameManager.DrawsAt (the player's own ship or a Tracked
contact). Builds untested in Unity at this commit; tests NothingReadsSelection and RevealedSubjectsListsTheBook.

GrabEvent carries a FloatingBodyId; Zone gains TryHold/SetHeldProgress/Free and places a held item instead of
integrating it; Entity.TractorPower is derived from Pickup.Power and TractorCommand is the pilot's input
(ActionGameManager writes it undamped, the Time.deltaTime ramp is deleted). Binder and FieldTester change the
delegate type only. PickupTests and a save round-trip pin for the player's zone index.
