#102 FIXED + benched: the Owens run->reverse 'hang' was the port missing the machine's whole HARD-BRAKE system -- master perf @0x4aa158-0x4aa365 (raw part_013.c:3353-95): a forward gait meeting a negative demand latches +0x3f4 (the recon's 'airborneSelect' -- another jump-jet-family misread: it is the BRAKE flag) and swaps the gait slew to the model's SuperStopAcceleration (+0x5bc, ex-'airborneCycleRate'), kicks the gyro with a random-sign Z lurch, judders the cab 0.2 every 0.4s while braking above walk speed (gyroRumbleTimer@0x5c4), ships the flag on the type-8 record, restores the ground rate on release. Content: heavies brake harder than they drive (10->20); the sprinters brake WEAKER -- owens 50->25, blkhawk 30->10 -- the Owens' long coast into reverse is AUTHORED, and the pod communicated it through the seat; the un-ported port coasted with zero feedback = the felt hang. Ported to the mech4 drive block ([brake] receipts under BT_GAIT_TRACE) + the replicant rate select restored in the peer motion path (the binary's IntegrateMotion:298 line -- dead TU in the port, Simulate bypassed). Plus gotcha 35: the binary's SM switch re-reads the state cell after the wind-down-gate/death-latch preamble (one cell: @0x3b0/@0x728 == the alarm level); the recon's split alarm/int pair dispatched the STALE pre-gate state for a frame -- re-synced, both channels. The 'leg in the air until you twist' statue is the MACHINE's own trn turn-stop MID-PIVOT park, authentically INVISIBLE on the pod (no external self-view existed; the chase cam is a port addition) -- bench-reproduced at trn legFrm=10 + twist rescue, documented not-a-bug (Owens reads worst: deepest mid-swing of the 8 chassis, thigh -43deg vs madcat -27). Reverse-input truth [T1]: reverse is the red button 0x3F/LALT held with the throttle OPEN (manual p7); demand = -runSpeed*throttle (NO fwdScale term in reverse); the throttle channel is [0,1] like the pod lever, so brake keys can NEVER produce reverse -> handout education line. Bench rig: BT_KEYSIM/_REV/_TURN drive the REAL lever+detent+SM chain headlessly (scratchpad/night18/gaithang_bench.sh). Benched (owens/grass): LALT flip at full run -> [brake] ENGAGE rate=25 (ground 50) -> 12->15->6->9->0->16->18<->19 back cycles at the authored -14.1 cadence -> clean recovery on release; held brake key -> authored stand park, ZERO brake engagements (authentic: no button, no brake). Side-find filed: hardware-RIO cab reverse is DEAD (AddOrErase stubs; open-questions row). 674 forensic: that build boots GLASS by default -> reverse was exclusively LALT in the field.

weapons physics audit (7-agent, all classes): docs/WEAPONS_FIELD_GUIDE.txt (tester-facing per-weapon review doc for the playtest group) + docs/WEAPONS_DRIFT_AUDIT.md (engineering drift table with addresses/tiers). Headline corrections the audit itself produced: (1) GAUSS RETRACTION -- the fielded GAUSS record is classID 0xBCD ProjectileWeapon (BTL4.RES @0xf16e6 raw bytes), full AC hitscan WITH damage; GaussRifle 0xBCE + shell 0xBD1 are dead code BOTH sides (zero shipped records; content census 78x0xBC8/16x0xBCD/30x0xBD0/14x0xBD4); the 'port Gauss damage is an invention' claim retracted in KB + ticket. (2) effectiveRange K byte-confirmed 1.0f @004b9c98. (3) PPC EnergyDamage victim-side GAUGE SCRAMBLE rider identified (@004a0230 -> gauge renderer) -- unimplemented in port, and it is exactly what Cyd's held ppc-sync-distortion branch implements: that branch is an AUTHENTIC-feature candidate, not an invention. (4) AC tracer TOF constants recovered (2.0f @0x4bc678, 1/9.8 x87 EXTENDED @0x4bc67c) -- port's 1.0 stand-ins closable. (5) missiles verified FAITHFUL end-to-end (382-impact corpus matches the salvo roll). Era questions consolidated in the guide; #21 overcharge-brick rescue documented as the one deliberate energy deviation

Oracle-return verification pass, both CONTRADICTS run to ground against the binary same night: #176 the seek-gear square law is the Emitter ctor's OWN calibration (@004bb120 EC = E/(0.5 seekV[rec]^2) [T1]) and the authored table (LLaser {6000,7000,8000,9900}/10000, rec=8000) yields the REAL ladder 56/77/100/153 -- seek 3 IS the published calibration point exactly as Oracle said, seek 4 is an unclamped OVERCHARGE gear (logged 5.80 > authored 5.0 proves it), and the guide's 'half-charge = quarter' example was the wrong part (master guide corrected with the real ladder + the downshift-for-rate / seek-4-alpha doctrine). #177 the BTPlayer ctor stamp table read verbatim (@004c0bc8: +0x260 = level>=2 -> heat at veteran AND expert in 4.10 [T1]; +0x274 = the raw level; +0x26c = standard|veteran) -- the port is faithful; Oracle + the 4.0 manual describe the earlier machine (a genuine 4.0->4.10 balance change); ticket premise corrected (the KB already carried the stamp values -- 'writer never read' was another check-own-history strike). experience-levels.md upgraded to the writer address; #176 open residue: per-weapon gear-fraction variance.
radar audit ledger: docs/RADAR_MAP_AUDIT.md distills the 3-agent audit (architecture, authenticity verdicts, the #49 root+fix, deliberate port deviations, stale-note sweep, follow-ups incl. the arena-edge era question and the 45deg-wedge-vs-manual-60 flag); gauges-hud gains the pointer section; the mech.cpp 'SetTargetRange is stubbed' stale comment swept (live since the zoom work).
#102 FIXED + benched: the Owens run->reverse 'hang' was the port missing the machine's whole HARD-BRAKE system -- master perf @0x4aa158-0x4aa365 (raw part_013.c:3353-95): a forward gait meeting a negative demand latches +0x3f4 (the recon's 'airborneSelect' -- another jump-jet-family misread: it is the BRAKE flag) and swaps the gait slew to the model's SuperStopAcceleration (+0x5bc, ex-'airborneCycleRate'), kicks the gyro with a random-sign Z lurch, judders the cab 0.2 every 0.4s while braking above walk speed (gyroRumbleTimer@0x5c4), ships the flag on the type-8 record, restores the ground rate on release.

velocity/dt audit: DRAG WAS THE GOVERNOR -- the binary applies -0.001*v^2 every frame, burn AND coast (@004bef78 + thruster @004be474, ctor precomputes terminal sqrt(T/COD) into +0x348 as the seeker lead base; authored COD 0.001 byte-read from BTL4.RES type-15 srm/lrm/strk/nrk). The port omitted it: LRM hit 3030 u/s at burnout vs the machine's 547.7 terminal (5.5x), 3912u downrange at t=5s vs 2108u -- a major slice of the 'missiles reach anything' field feel. Pool now integrates speed += (accel - 0.001*v^2)*dt. The dt MODEL itself verified FAITHFUL (Mover zeroes accel per frame + integrates x dt in seconds, matched line-for-line to T0 MOVER.cpp -- the 28Hz myomer idiom does NOT apply; open-question closed). AC cosmetic tracer TOF constants landed (2.0f @0x4bc678, 1/9.8 x87 EXTENDED @0x4bc67c, muzzleHeight term via ResolveLaunchVelocity deferred-first-use). Stale banners swept (misthrst @004be474 recovered; projweap #168 flight-contact banner gone). KB: decomp-reference Mover-gravity fix + flight-model bullet, coast gravity = 6.5 not 9.8. Drift audit: SSVELOCITY/DT + SSRANGE AUTHENTICITY (manual cross-check: PPC/AFC100 MATCH, SRM 450-vs-800 authoring drift; rangefinder ladder NOT miscalibrated -- fixed 0-1200 + authored pips both sides; -100m range-bias state unimplemented, parked). Build clean

#170 root-caused + fixed: the #163 SteamAPI_Shutdown was the crash -- at round end every peer's close events are ALWAYS in flight, and Shutdown tears client state down while steamclient's own service thread dispatches them (the field stack: a steamclient worker calling literal NULL, zero btl4 frames, 7 hits / 3 machines / one module-relative stack). BTSteamNet_ShutdownAll is now a QUIESCE: steamActive gated FIRST, linger closes ('round over' not timeouts), one SNS drain, 60ms grace, NO SteamAPI_Shutdown -- and every exit path dies via TerminateProcess (menu-quit no longer returns through the CRT; it uses BTOrderlyDie like everything else, so the 883 detach deadlock stays dead too). Status callback guarded for the dying window. Crash filter now names foreign DLL frames (module+offset via VirtualQuery/GetModuleFileName) so the next foreign-thread crash arrives pre-symbolized. Exit contract: steam-networking.md
#173 FINAL: port cadence defect FIXED -- the velocity ring now samples at the pod's 28Hz by default (BT_MYO_RING_HZ overrides). Measured [T2, six curves m173v2]: at ~59fps the |a| operand carried 64-66% gait-aliasing noise = drive heat 2x the machine's; at 28Hz + the authored loop-5 boost (detent 50 receipt-proven, flow 0.909) a vulture holds FULL supercharge 54-57 u/s indefinitely at stable Tm~1500 -- the machine's valve lever worked, the manual's Super Charged print was honest, witnesses 7-0 (Draco/Oracle/Elengil + the user's eyes beat the solver AND the first bench). Balanced seek-4 still cooks authentically (~18s); wrap trap stands; display pixel-verified in sync. BT_VALVE5 bench hook added (receipted detent presses). Post-promotion smoke: boosted vulture stable ~1500 dipping under. Gotcha 32 (sampled-history operands at render cadence; a validated model EXTRAPOLATES, only the bench INTERPOLATES); cadence census -> BTSimClock migration checklist in open-questions (gyro bounce timescale next, footstep smoothers, doppler; heatLoad was already pod-clocked #119 = the reference pattern). Guide 2B rewritten with the confession + the measured fix
weapons batch VERIFIED on the final tree + last two gaps closed: BYSTANDER SWEEP landed (guided damage rounds test the flight segment vs every mech, detonate on interposers like the binary's world sweep @0042291c -- 11 legitimate strikes in the sweep bench, zero self/phantom/fuze-race hits per forensics) + COAST GRAVITY (-6.5 after burnout). Comprehensive 2-node weapons_sweep bench PASS, all families: ENERGY 184 named FIRED / 79 hits; AC 17 type=1 hits ALL burst=1 + 84 ballistic pushes ALL dmg=0 (hitscan live-proven multi-node on final code); MISSILE 593 type=2 hits, 576 salvo bursts (4.0 fuze + drag speeds work); #174 guard worst-repeat=1 across 13 lives; detector SELF-TESTED against synthetic pre-fix shapes before any verdict trusted. Rig lessons -> test-harness.md: BT_FIRE_AT_ICON designates BUILDINGS (use BT_GOTO=enemy + throttled BT_AUTOFIRE/BT_AF_MISSILE, the kd pattern); mad2 'Zanin Neko' carries AFC50+ERPPC+LRM15+SRM6x2+ERMLaser -- all families on one engaging chassis; -net 1501 -> pilot :1502 mapping
KB: #111 paperwork -- translocation-warp topic updated (peer sphere retired: port extension vs the POV-only authentic effect; the DropZoneLocation-anchor nuance and the slot-contention skip both moot; observers see the un-wreck swap). Release notes gain the no-bubble-on-others line crediting Lynx's night-9 call. Tracker comment posted, field-verify Friday.
