FireControl.RoundEnd and RoundAt leave FireControl (RoundEnd to DrawAhead verbatim, RoundAt as DrawAhead's private Line);
DrawAhead.Round takes the published outcome, steers a hit or burst from its frozen line at the commit tick onto its
end (burst point, else the impact cell on the target's drawn pose), and RoundStop is deleted. Projectile caches the
last published ShotOutcome and calls DrawAhead only. BallisticFlightTests move to the new signatures; the frozen-line
moving-target test is replaced by impact-cell, steer and no-drawing-function tests. Unverified: not yet built or run.

Deletes At, the end formula (Unity restating the range) and Resolve's own stop
arithmetic. Launch binds ShotCommitted (refresh the record, learn the outcome)
and ShotResolved; Draw is DrawAhead.Round plus RoundOver; a hit or burst stops at
DrawAhead.RoundStop. Projectile names no flight quantity.
Builds headless (Projectile is not in the test project); the Unity compile is
run separately at the final head.

FireRange is the distance to the engaged target and 0 for a round with none, so a no-lock burst round and a
round that misses never flew. MaxRange = weapon.Range is frozen at Fire beside Speed. Unity compile not yet run.

Deletes the Time.deltaTime gravity/drag/position integration and the range-distance kill from Projectile and the
UnityEngine.Random jitter, barrel direction and inherited velocity from ProjectileManager. A round holds a copy of
its PendingShot and draws at RoundAt(Zone.Time + Clock.Lead) with a barrel offset decaying over BlendTime; ShotResolved
ends a hit or burst at the outcome's BurstPoint, a miss flies to the FireRange clamp. Unity compile not yet run at
this commit.

Operator ruling mines-back-in-sim-asap: delete now, return as a simulation body.
Mesh, materials and BigExplosion stay for the sim-mines presenter. GridObject
stays for the pickups until loot-1 r2. Comments in FireControl.Detonate and
HullCollider drop the deleted callers. Builds not yet verified at this commit.

Ship.Update reads Turn and feeds the rotation thrusters and aether drives; it no longer reads the
look direction or snaps Direction toward it. Steering.Toward is the one law from heading to demand
(a heading astern now turns at full demand). HelmInput owns the face-the-aim state. Accelerate,
Combat and MoveTo write Turn through Steering.Toward. Entity.LookDirection is renamed Aim in the
simulation, the Unity readers and the tests. Unity player input follows in the next commit.

The placement rule (HardpointAt) already finds the one hardpoint an item lies
in at equip; TryEquip threw that answer away and eighteen readers recomputed it
from the item's origin cell, which need not lie in the hardpoint (Soul's
scenarios batch-4 P30). EquippedItem.Hardpoint now carries the answer, null for
Tool gear and the hull, and every origin-cell lookup reads it instead:
FireControl.ArcFor, the eleven weapon managers, EntityInstance, ShipInstance
and ActionGameManager's articulation grouping. Entity.Hardpoints[,] stays the
per-cell map for armour and display.
TryFindSpace's hardpoint search tries every origin the fit rule can accept,
including ones up and left of the hardpoint, so a design whose shape lacks its
origin cell is found wherever ItemFits would place it.

After its fade a round kept integrating Velocity through the BindingLifetime wait, then a Hit (which carries
no burst point) played HitEffect at the drifted position. The wait now holds still; a hit without a point
plays the effect at the round's target position, and is skipped when the round never knew one. OnEnable resets
BindingLifetime so a pooled split child, which is never bound, does not inherit the last round's.

A burst whose every round is refused fires nothing and leaves no cooldown: the cooldown moves from
Trigger to the first round Execute does not refuse, and CanFire holds a triggered burst that has not
yet fired. ChargedWeapon.Activate asks FireControl before it starts charging, so a refused weapon pays
no charge heat or audio. InReach is deleted: Designated carries the one range test and the lock gate,
and Combat reads it. GuidedProjectile answers Resolve while alive and keeps its binding through the
shot's flight time, so a faded round still shows the simulation's detonation.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The overshoot branch of GuidedProjectile.Update (out of range, or flown past
its target) instantiated HitEffect whatever the simulation had decided. A round
the simulation never detonated could therefore explode on screen. The branch now
fades the round out; Resolve stays the one place a HitEffect is shown for a
detonation.

Unity-only, compile-checked by reading.
* F5: GuidedProjectile.Binding is one owner: a new binding disposes the one it
replaces, Kill disposes it, and OnDestroy does too, so a projectile torn down
with its scene cannot leave an observer on the zone's subjects to touch a
destroyed transform.
* F6: Resolve takes whether the simulation detonated. A miss (a contact or
delayed round that missed, a target that left) fades out with no explosion.
* F7: BurstAt resets the previous target position and target velocity, so the
retarget jump does not feed the guidance a bogus target velocity.

- GuidedProjectileManager passed target.transform to OnFireGuided for a
no-target fused round: a NullReferenceException inside InstantWeapon.Execute
after the shot was queued, which skipped audio, wear, heat and visibility
and unwound Zone.Update. The tuple's transform is null-safe now, and the
trackmissile console command falls back to the missile.
- Presentation follows the commit rather than predicting it. The manager binds
each guided round to Zone.ShotCommitted (retarget to the burst point the
commit names, so a Contact round bursts at its hull and a Range-clamped
burst is not overshot) and ShotResolved (burst there, then). The binding is
disposed when the projectile dies, so a pooled round does not accumulate them.
- Beams and barrel-fired projectiles stay with F5.

EntityInstance handed effect managers the shooter's selected target whatever
FireControl decided. A fused round whose target was invalid or out of arc
flies at none, and GuidedProjectileManager dropped a launcher shot with no
target entirely, so a real burst had no missile.
- Zone.TryGetShot: a presentation reads the shot the simulation committed
(its target, its burst point) by the ShotId OnFire hands it.
- EntityInstance passes the shot's own target; a launcher round with none
flies to the shot's burst point.

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.

tests/mutation_tests_fire_control_cut6.sh, modelled on Cut 5's harness: a no-op
control, four mutations (6.1's shared-stream generator and dropped-ShotId seed;
6.2's double-application and unconditional-splash), byte-exact I/O with
sha256-verified restore after every mutation, and the two negative greps the
Cut 6 spec names. All five mutations behave as declared and the tree-clean
verdict is PASS.
Fixes two of Commit's and Projectile's own explanatory comments that quoted the
literal strings the negative greps check for (ItemManager.Random, Airburst),
which the first harness run caught as false failures -- reworded, no behavior
change.

6.1 (Soul finding 6): Commit builds a local CultMath.Random from (Zone.CombatSeed,
shot.ShotId) instead of reading and writing the shared ItemManager.Random stream.
Zone exposes CombatSeed (the same expression that already seeds its own _random),
so a shot's outcome is a pure function of zone identity and shot id -- immune to
whatever else drew from the shared stream in between.
6.2 (Soul finding 5): airburst is wired into the simulation instead of back into
Projectile.cs. PendingShot gains BurstPosition/BurstRadius, frozen at Fire time
from PredictedIntercept and the weapon's authored WeaponItemData.AirburstRange
when WeaponModifiers carries Airburst. FireControl.Step resolves such a shot via
Splash instead of Apply, never both. Projectile.cs/ProjectileManager.cs drop the
dead AirburstDistance/AirburstRange fields and write-back.
Tests: FireControlCut6Tests.cs pins both rules (208 baseline + 5 new, all green).

Deletes the last live Physics.* hit queries and every remaining SendHit/
SendSplash call in Assets/Scripts/Gameplay/Weapons: ConstantLaser's
RaycastAll, ConstantLightning's SphereCastAll, ConstantParticleWeapon's
trigger-collider plumbing, HitscanEffect's RaycastAll, and Mine's blast
OverlapSphere. Each becomes presentation only, the same convention Cut 3
gave Projectile/GuidedProjectile/Laser/Lightning: ConstantLaser/
ConstantLightning/HitscanEffect draw to TargetTransform (or out to Range with
no target); ConstantParticleWeapon keeps only its visual emission.
ConstantWeapon.Execute (previous commit) already rolled the damage before any
of these ever draw.
Mine keeps its proximity-arming OverlapSphere (Q7: contact detection, not hit
detection) but Explode() now calls FireControl.Splash instead of walking
colliders and calling SendSplash itself.
HullCollider.Hit/Splash/SendHit/SendSplash and their event-arg classes are
deleted outright -- their last callers are gone. HullCollider is now purely a
physics surface for ship-on-ship collision impulse; no Physics.* query
decides damage anywhere in Assets/Scripts/Gameplay/Weapons except Mine's own
named exception.
Every manager (ConstantLaserManager, ConstantLightningManager,
ConstantParticleWeaponManager, HitscanManager) is updated to match: no more
Damage/Penetration/Spread/DamageType plumbing into a presentation component
that no longer decides anything with it, and HitscanManager now passes
ShotId and TargetTransform the way LaserManager already does.

Cut 3 landed 39 compile errors in GuidedProjectile: it uses ToCultMath
throughout and lost the using directive. Caught by batchmode on merge, not

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.

F4: a hit that breaks the shield usually also cooks it (TakeHit's own
AddHeat), which can knock the item thermally offline in the same tick. The
reserve's recharge and its Broken-clearing check lived inside Execute, which
Entity.Update only runs while Item.Active is true -- so a shield broken by a
hit that also shuts it down could never come back, no matter how long
RestoreDuration allows for. That logic now lives in Shield.Update
(IAlwaysUpdatedBehavior), which Entity.Update calls every tick unconditionally
(Cooldown.cs already relies on the same interface for the same reason).
F5: CanTakeHit broke the shield and drained the reserve as a side effect of
the query itself, on the premise that every caller queries it exactly once
per hit. That premise was false: RaycastAll/SphereCastAll/OverlapSphere hand
every caller under Assets/Scripts/Gameplay/Weapons both the shield collider
and the hull collider for one shot, so the same shield's CanTakeHit was
queried twice per hit. CanTakeHit is now a pure read (Broken + the reserve's
own CanSpend); the mutation moved to a new Shield.Break(), idempotent, called
by each weapon file exactly where it already decided to route a hit past the
shield instead of absorbing it.
Pinned in tests/Aetheria.Shared.Tests/ShieldReserveTests.cs:
RestorationProceedsWhileTheItemIsInactive (F4),
CanTakeHitNeverMutatesRegardlessOfHowManyTimesItIsCalled and
BreakIsIdempotentAcrossRepeatedCalls (F5). Updated every existing test that
relied on CanTakeHit's old mutating side effect to call Break() explicitly,
matching the new caller pattern.
Cannot compile-verify Assets/Scripts/Gameplay/Weapons/*.cs here (UnityEngine,
Unity batchmode unavailable in this environment) -- reviewed by hand for
brace/control-flow correctness; Self or a Unity batchmode pass should confirm.

AetheriaMath predates the CultMath swap and re-implemented helpers CultMath
now owns. Callers use CultMath directly: decay (Ship, AetherDrive, Entity),
damp (VelocityConversion, FieldTester, FieldDriver), first_order_intercept
(TurretController, Combat, GuidedProjectile), quadratic_bezier (FieldDriver)
and smootherstep (Ship). Parameter order matches in every case, and those
formulas have the same float evaluation order, so behaviour is unchanged.
Galaxy's commented-out segment check names distance_to_segment.
The other overloads had no callers and are dropped without a CultMath
counterpart being needed: the double Damp overloads, FindDistanceToSegment,
GetCatmullRomPosition, GetCubicSplinePosition, Smoothstep(x), and the
Deg2Rad/Rad2Deg constants.
AetherDb census, factions and hardpoint-fit are byte-identical to the
pre-cut captures.

CultMath has no implicit conversions to or from Vector*, Quaternion or
Color, so Assembly-CSharp converts explicitly with ToCultMath/ToUnity at
each engine boundary: FieldDriver, GuidedProjectile(Manager),
EntityInstance, ActionGameManager, HullCollider, GridObject, ShipInstance,
ShieldManager, ItemPickup, FieldTester, PlaceUIElementWorldspace,
MapMenuInput, MapRenderer, SectorRenderer and ZoneRenderer. CultMath math
calls that were handed Unity vectors now take converted values;
Vector3.Scale in FieldDriver becomes a float3 product, and ItemPickup's
Vector3.Dot on float3s becomes dot. packages-lock.json records the
cultmath git package at f0605367 and demotes com.unity.mathematics to a
transitive dependency.

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.
