AetherDriveData and AetherDrive, Union(12) (now a retired-do-not-reuse comment, as 26 is),
HardpointType.AetherDrive (last member, nothing shifts), Ship's drive sets, aggregates and
Axis write, the five request-field rows, GameplaySettings Aether multipliers, ShipInstance's
drive particles, SchematicDisplay's RPM display and AetherDriveUi, the undock refusal's drive
clause, the drive prefab and material, and AetherDb's drive roles and brownout row. The
design is kept at parked/aether-drive.
Adds EveryShippedShipHullHasATopSpeed. ARPG.unity still holds stale serialized references to
the removed SchematicDisplay fields and the RPM Display object; the next commit removes them.

Soul gate closed at verdict cut-evasion-term.s5 (head 473a4bcc); remaining Low
test gaps are deferred to a follow-up. Merged under operator ruling
aetheria-release:ruling:completed-cuts-merge. Carries the migrated
GameData/Aetheria.cc (LFS sha256 63250cf2...7ae25); master did not change the
catalog.

Every hit price gains one factor, PDeviation(Evasion, Tracking): how far the target can
and does move off the line of fire within SolutionWindow (0.75 s). Capability is Reach, an
eight-face closed form over the ship's ManoeuvreEnvelope (summed from what each live
thruster and aether drive reports with its own Execute arithmetic, read live: a thruster's
Thrust property is stale until it fires, which is why the Djinni moved 1.6 times its stats,
M25). Behaviour is ManoeuvreTrack, observed once per Entity.Update from the measured
acceleration; a steady burn, coasting and a dither much faster than the window do not
evade, and sideways speed alone does not (ruling evasion-speed). The commit price adds the
term at any flight time, so an instant weapon feels a jinking target. Forecast owns the
term for HitProbability and Inspect, which gain Evasion and PEvasion.

Settings gain SellFraction, RepairFraction and StartingCredits. A sale pays the price scaled by condition and moves the
item into a station bay or refuses with everything unchanged; a repair restores every durability and charges the wear,
or refuses when short.

MiningTool (its Execute range-checked against nothing, since no writer ever
set AsteroidBelt/Asteroid) and Zone.MineAsteroid (mints nothing; the
SimpleCommodity drop was commented out) are deleted, per Q1=A: "Bring back
the drill, indeed." Union tag 26 is retired, not reused. ResourceScanner's
dead survey Execute and its scan-target fields go too; its authored Range/
MinimumDensity/ScanDuration stay pending Q2. PlanetSettings.MiningDifficulty
had one reader, now gone.
Chunk wear (damage, broken-until) moves off AsteroidBelt's three per-belt
dictionaries and onto Zone as the one owner (Q3=A): Zone.Wear is the only
writer, ChunkExists/ChunkRadius are the readers, and respawn is a lazy
comparison against zone time, never a per-tick loop. ChunkId is
(CultRecordKey Field, int Index) -- "Field", not "Belt", because chunks are
meant to generalize past asteroid belts to other debris fields later.
Persisted in ZonePack's new key 6 (List<ChunkWearPack>, nullable so an older
record with no key 6 loads with no wear instead of throwing), pruned of
healed, non-broken entries at pack.
The break threshold stays strictly greater-than, matching today's behaviour:
damage exactly equal to hitpoints does not yet break the chunk.

FireControl.Commit used to place a hit with a coin flip between exactly
the aimed item and a uniform-random hull cell -- no spatial term, so a
near-miss on a stern item was as likely to land in the bow as the stern.
One Gaussian kernel, in hull-schematic cell units, now decides both
halves of "where will this shot go": w(cell) = exp(-d^2/2*sigma^2) over
every occupied cell, sigma = 1/Precision. HitProbability folds the
kernel's on-hull mass share (pOnHull) into PBase at fire time (R10/Q6
unaffected); Commit draws the landing cell from the same weights. A shot
that passes the roll always lands on metal -- the off-hull chance is
priced into that one roll, never resolved as a second miss stage. The
uniform-random branch is deleted outright, not demoted.
Precision now feeds every shot's pOnHull, aimed or not, so its unaided
fallback (FireControl.Precision) reads GameplaySettings.UnaidedPrecision
instead of a bare 0 -- the same shape as the existing UnaidedAccuracy/
UnaidedTracking floors. pOnHull is saturated: the discrete sum over-
estimates the continuous kernel's integral once sigma drops below about
one cell, and a mass share cannot exceed the whole kernel.
Existing fixtures across FireAuthorityTests, FireControlCut4/5/6Tests and
TargetingSystemTests authored Precision as 0 (or relied on the old 0
fallback) purely as a don't-care value under the coin-flip rule, where it
only gated the aimed-item branch. Under the kernel it drives every shot's
sigma, so those fixtures are re-authored to keep pOnHull near its
ceiling and stay pinned on what they actually test.
mutation_tests_fire_control_cut3.sh's two anchors into HitProbability's
return line and the deleted coin-flip branch are updated to the
equivalent lines/mutations on the new code.
Soul's pass over the whole campaign confirmed eleven findings. Seven were code
defects of one shape -- a rule implemented on one path and left off the path
beside it -- and this is all seven.
5.1 Tracking falls back to GameplaySettings.UnaidedTracking (new, 10) instead of
zero, and Commit drops the zero branch that turned a Tracking-less shooter
into a hard wall. Unaided fire was meant to be really, really bad; it was
334 shots and no hits against a target drifting at 5 u/s.
5.2 A shot the shield cannot absorb now breaks it. The decision is frozen into
ShotOutcome.ShieldBroken at commit and performed in Apply, so a shield that
recharges mid-flight cannot retroactively survive. Splash already did this;
the discrete roll never did, which made the whole shield-break mechanic
unreachable for every weapon in the catalog.
5.3 ConstantWeapon gates on ArcAllowsFire alongside StanceAllowsFire. A
side-mounted beam was firing forward.
5.4 The point-blank bearing case moves out of Weapon.ArcAllowsFire and into
InArc, which used to normalize the zero vector into NaN. The trigger said
fire and the probability said impossible.
5.5 A destroyed item drops out of IsRevealed's ranking, so Precision stops
concentrating hits onto a dead subsystem's footprint.
5.6 Zone subscribes Entity.Death and removes the corpse itself. That removal
lived only in Unity's loot-drop subscription, so headless nothing ever left
the zone, shots landed on corpses and no fight could end.
5.7 PendingShot drops PredictedIntercept and FlightTime, written and read
nowhere.
208 tests pass (197 plus eleven new).
Known defect, recorded rather than hidden: the committed mutation harness is
unreliable. Across two runs it failed to restore FireControl.cs and Weapon.cs,
leaving live mutations in the working tree -- including its own 5.1 mutation,
which is how a green suite briefly reported two failures. Its verdicts are
therefore evidence only where re-run from a verified-clean tree. Two anchors
(Zone.cs's ObserveAdd line, Weapon.cs's InArc return) fail to match at all, and
5.3's ConstantWeaponObeysArc survives its own mutation, so that rule is written
but not pinned. Cut 5b owns the repair; nothing here is trusted on the harness's
word, and the suite result above was taken by hand from a hash-verified tree.

FireControl.Fire takes an optional damageOverride so a continuous weapon can
queue a shot for less than its full Damage. FireControl.Splash is the one new
rule this cut adds: an unconditional area effect (mines, airburst) applying
the shield-absorb-or-hull-takes-it branch per target, then DamageSchematic
over the directional half of each target's own hull that faces the blast --
the rule moved verbatim from the Splash subscription EntityInstance.cs
carried before Cut 3 deleted it (git show b7743789^).
ConstantWeapon.Execute rolls once per GameplaySettings.BeamResolveInterval
(new setting) for Damage*interval, through the same FireControl.Fire/Step
pair a discrete shot uses -- a beam's authored Velocity is 0, so the flight
commits and resolves in the same tick it fires (R4's short-flight
degradation). A beam is a sequence of rolls, not a continuous truth.
Fixes a real defect found while testing the above: both InstantWeapon.Execute
(Cut 3) and the new ConstantWeapon.Execute wrote `OnFire?.Invoke(FireControl.
Fire(...))` inline. C#'s null-conditional short-circuits the whole
expression, argument included, whenever the event has no subscriber -- true
of any headless run with no Unity EntityInstance wired up
(docs/headless-playground-cut.md) -- so a shot silently never fired. Both
now evaluate FireControl.Fire into a local before the null-conditional
invoke.

Deletes the Unity physics hit path (HullCollider.Hit/Splash, and the
raycast/shield/SendHit blocks in Projectile, GuidedProjectile, Laser and
Lightning) and replaces it with a single owner in the same cut: FireControl
now decides whether a shot hits, Zone owns the pending-shot lifecycle, and
Entity.DamageSchematic/ApplyHit (moved verbatim from EntityInstance) apply the
result. Presentation subscribes to Zone.ShotCommitted/ShotResolved and applies
nothing.
FireControl.HitProbability is the pure targeting solution (Accuracy * pSensor
* pSpread, gated by detection/range/lock/arc). FireControl.Fire freezes the
weapon's payload and the shooter's resolved targeting stats at the instant the
trigger is pulled (Q6), computes the predicted intercept through the one
shared PredictedIntercept function (CombatState now calls the same function
instead of duplicating first_order_intercept), and queues a PendingShot.
FireControl.Step commits each shot's outcome at ArrivalTime - CommitHorizon --
deviation from the predicted intercept, measured once, live, at that instant
-- and applies it at ArrivalTime. A shot whose flight is shorter than the
horizon commits and resolves in the same tick it fires. Rolls draw from the
shooter's own ItemManager.Random (Q5, seeded and reproducible); an out-of-arc
or otherwise gated shot draws nothing.
Player fire is arc-gated through the same predicate AI and turret fire use
(Weapon.ArcAllowsFire, checked in InstantWeapon.Trigger -- the one point every
shooter's trigger passes through), closing Q2.
Adds GameplaySettings.CommitHorizon, SchematicCellSize and
AgentMinHitProbability (first guesses; the headless suite is the tuning
harness, operator play smoke is the arbiter).
FORK reported, not worked around silently: HullCollider.SendHit/SendSplash
cannot be deleted yet without breaking ConstantLaser.cs, ConstantLightning.cs,
ConstantParticleWeapon.cs, HitscanEffect.cs and Mine.cs, which still call them
from their own live Physics queries -- that's Cut 4's migration. They fire
into the void today: nothing subscribes to Hit/Splash any more for the four
weapon kinds this cut owns.
tests/Aetheria.Shared.Tests/FireAuthorityTests.cs pins the roll's seeding, the
gate-consumes-no-draw rule, resolve-on-arrival, the commit horizon and its
evasion window, short-flight degradation, the frozen-payload snapshot, aimed
hits, the item-then-hull damage order, the planar penetration march and the
shield-absorbs branch. FireControlTests.cs and InputCapacitorTests.cs are
updated for the new AI gate and OnFire(int) signature.

TargetingSystem is required interior Tool gear: Accuracy/Resolution/
Precision/Tracking are PerformanceStats reached through the usual
Evaluate path, so lot quality, wear, heat and PowerSupply all apply
(a starved system rolls worse, never switches off). FireControl.Accuracy/
Resolution/Precision fall back to GameplaySettings.UnaidedAccuracy (new,
authored low per Q4) whenever an entity has no targeting system or its
own is destroyed/disabled.
FireControl.IsRevealed derives R5's reveal rule from EntityInfoGathered:
non-hull equipment ranks hardpoint-mounted first, then by size, and
reveals between TargetArmorInfoThreshold and TargetGearInfoThreshold --
the first code to read either setting. Entity.TargetItem/
TrySelectTargetItem/ResolvedTargetItem give both the player and AI one
shared, revoke-on-decay aim-point slot with a single writer.

Entity.HardpointTransforms was written only by Unity (EntityInstance.cs),
so the simulation's notion of where a gun points was a readback from a
renderer that never runs headless -- Combat.cs threw KeyNotFoundException
on the first combat tick outside Unity. Deletes the field, its writer, and
the readback branch in Behavior.Direction, leaving the item-rotation path
(the same convention reaction thrusters use, R6) as the only source of
mount direction.
Adds FireControl (ServerShared), a static class owning whether a weapon
bears on a point: MountDirection (planar, from ItemRotation), ArcFor (the
per-hardpoint HardpointData.FiringArc override, falling back to the new
GameplaySettings.FiringArc default of 120), and InArc (the planar dot-cone
test, R7 -- target height never enters it, and an arc of 360+ passes
unconditionally so a turret hardpoint needs no new type, just a number).
Combat.cs and TurretController.cs now gate AI fire through InArc instead
of the old hardcoded 0.99 dot-product test against a live Unity transform.
Settings.cs drops AgentFiringMinDot, which was declared and read by
nothing.

ZoneGenerator now spawns NeutralWandererCount ships (default 2, authored on
ZoneGenerationSettings) from a galaxy faction that is neither the zone owner
nor its nearest faction, using the zone's existing seeded Random so placement
stays deterministic per zone. None spawn when no faction qualifies. The
faction-pool rule is pulled into ZoneGenerator.EligibleWandererFactions so it
is unit-testable without running the full generation pipeline.

Every Unity.Mathematics using, alias and qualified name under Assets\Scripts
and tools now names CultMath. The nine `using static ...noise;` lines are
gone: snoise lives on CultMath's math. UnityExtensions loses float4.ToColor
and Color.ToFloat4, which duplicate the bridge's ToColor and ToCultMath; the
float3 colour pair stays because the bridge has none.
