FireControl.Apply now switches on the frozen shot.Fuse: a null fuse keeps
12.3's lane path (ApplyDirectHit), a proximity fuse detonates at arrival with
no roll, and a contact or delayed fuse detonates only on a committed hit
(ApplyBlastHit), locating P through Lane and the new Reach owner (moved
verbatim from Apply's own inline penetration clip; the delayed fuse point
reads the identical rule). Step has no damage branch left.
Detonate (FireControl.cs) is the one owner of blast damage: candidates by
centre-plus-half-diagonal, exact circle/cell overlap shares computed once,
every blast's shield decided live per Q12-9 = A (including the host of a
contact/delayed blast -- Commit now gates its own shield decision on
shot.Fuse == null), armour absorbed per cell, and each item's covered cells
pooled into one ItemAbsorb call. Entity.Absorb and FireControl.Splash are
deleted; Entity gains ToSchematicPoint/ToWorldPoint for the point conversion
Detonate and the delayed fuse point need. Mine.Explode now calls Detonate.
Existing Splash/Absorb-era tests across Cut4/5/6/11/123 are rewritten or
retargeted to the new public owners; behavioural coverage for the blast
model itself lands separately.

Inspect.PBase is HitProbability's own answer instead of a second product of
the factors. New behavioural tests pin a beam shot carrying its override
damage, a fitted targeting system forgiving a jink, a shot orphaned before
commit committing as a plain miss, and the HUD's arrival countdown. The
tautological damage assertion in BeamRollsPerInterval is deleted.

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.
tests/Aetheria.Shared.Tests/FireControlCut4Tests.cs, builds its own minimal
fixtures rather than reusing FireAuthorityTests.cs's InstantWeapon-shaped
Engagement:
- BeamRollsPerInterval: over one second a beam produces exactly
1/BeamResolveInterval outcomes totalling Damage. Interval (.25s) and tick
(.125s) are both exact dyadic fractions so float accumulation cannot drift
the count, and the tick is strictly smaller than the interval so a "roll
every tick" mutant and a "roll once for the burst" mutant both fail.
- InstantWeaponFiresWithoutAnyOnFireSubscriber: pins the InstantWeapon half
of the null-conditional short-circuit fix, which no existing test could
catch (FireAuthorityTests.cs always calls FireControl.Fire directly, never
through Trigger()/Execute()).
- SplashHitsEveryEntityInRadius / SplashIsDirectional: FireControl.Splash
called directly against a zone of bare Ship entities (Entity.MapEntity,
run from the constructor, is enough to give a Ship Armor/GearOccupancy/
Hull without Activate() or a weapon catalog).
tests/mutation_tests_fire_control_cut4.py is the committed harness: a no-op
control plus one mutation per rule above, run against
tests/Aetheria.Shared.Tests via `dotnet test -p:CultLibRoot=...`. All seven
mutations behaved as declared in this pass.
