Breakable surfaces (glass) are broken by each machine's own projectiles
with its own random damage, so a pane could shatter on the host and stay
whole, still blocking, on a client. In co-op the host now sends each break
(and a few again every refresh, for late joiners), and a client breaks the
same surface with its shards.
Destructible scenery and devices (lights, panels) are the map's, at the
same index on every machine, but only damage to units was synced: a
client's shots never damaged them, and what the host broke didn't break
or play its effects on the clients. A client now reports its hits on them
like any other, the host checks and deals them, and every client deals the
host's damage to its own copy, which breaks, plays its effects and is
destroyed as the host's was.
Both are new message kinds that a client without them ignores, so the
network version is unchanged.
Recover transparent geometry submit (+1,285 meaningful code, zero exact losses); reconcile COMMON ownership and Q10 85+EXT1 credit, actions/main data, and separately disclosed denominator corrections. Preserve canonical-only repairs and all held research. C09 is ordinary disclosed cleanup, not a claim of proven scaffolding intent. Clean rebuild, 1,663 tests, parks, audits, provider links and independent EXT1 check pass. Local reconciliation only.
Independently gate storage + K, OQ-4 P-a/P-b1, four static-local packets and comment-only disclosures. Preserve all 7641 exact owner rows, 71 valid parks and 1161 passing tests; code/data credit unchanged. G and game_engine admission remain held because current canonical loses populate_statistic_buffer. Existing collision static-local repair is not duplicated. No donor tree, held candidate, scorer or private asset imported.
The Xbox game state (0x345000 bytes at 0x80061000) ends exactly where the
map-linked tag cache begins and has 948 bytes free, so a 128-player
session cannot even allocate its player datums. The native builds now
place a 16 MB game state (CPU 0xFC0000, GPU 0x40000) at 0x81A00000, above
the tag cache and below everything the Xbox memory window hands out
top-down, and grow the pools that scale with the number of players:
- objects: 2048 -> 8192 headers, 1 MB -> 8 MB pool; the garbage limits
keep January's proportions (5/10/20 % of the pool, 2.5/5/10 % of the
headers, 75/50/30 active garbage objects per 16 players)
- cluster partition reference lists 2048 -> 8192 (collideable and
noncollideable objects, lights); a full list drops objects out of
rendering, collision and sphere queries
- effects 256 -> 2048, effect locations 512 -> 4096
- particles 1024 -> 8192 (render_particles' visible list, filled without
a bound check, follows), particle systems 64 -> 256, their particles
512 -> 4096
- contrails 256 -> 1024, contrail points 1024 -> 8192
(MAXIMUM_CONTRAIL_POINTS stays the pool size for the same reason)
- lights 896 -> 4096, object looping sounds 1024 -> 4096
- cached object render states and rendered objects 256 -> 1024
- script object-list references 128 -> 1024, objects one explosion can
damage 64 -> 256
The values live in port/linux/include/halo_port_capacity.h, included by
halo_port_limits.h. With 128 player datums the CPU part holds 14,256,908
bytes (2,258,164 free). Saved games and cores grow to 16 MB. Every change
is under HALO_LINUX; the MSVC objects are unchanged.

- rasterizer_xbox_dynavobgeom (admission, reviewer-amended): genuine shared
declarations replace the caller-local debug-options, window and pixel-shader
views; /Od-attested vector_from_points3d/dot_product3d calls and HCEX locals
in the unlit draw; the HCEX function-static `warned` latch; MAX() for the
/Od ?: store; nine D3DINLINE wrappers static per cachebeta; rejection retired.
- damage (reviewer B+): _object_damage_body exact (1360); four statics per
cachebeta; park retired. The AOE header-helper form (patch A) stays held.
- players: January-static storage (3 rows) plus the COMMON tentative
definitions of players_globals/team_data (January linker_common records).
- hs: 839 January-static storage flags and the /Od-attested static helper
hs_enumerate_scenario_data replacing 11 hand expansions (reviewer-amended;
the real_random_range cleanup stays held with the P1 class).
- hs_scenario_definitions: first-party static byte_swap_script_syntax_data.
- player_profile (HCEX profile_color_table) and main (/Od main_exit shape):
reviewed zero-credit packets; three parks re-baselined.

Integrate verified source and data progress; exclude unproven COMMON ownership, held UB/asm forms, and address-named data credit. Stable sweep: 23 exact functions gained, zero lost.
Block-scoped collision model, real_random_range owner API, typed child walk (same form as the exact object_deplete_body). 1 park(s) removed. Adversarially verified (wave D park re-investigation); full build of the combined wave D set: 0 regressions, parks 402/0/0.
