The boundary ledger says which phase spends a turn's words; this says which
call site. Each entry point is detoured with its verified prototype and records
__builtin_return_address(0) plus the word cost from left before/after -- two
4-byte reads, no record per draw, since NextFloat alone has 109 call sites.
Each draw is tagged with WHICH generator it came from. That is not a detail:
the first build counted every Mars::RNG instance in the process and reported 44
words against a bracket of 18. The StrategyClient's generator at +0x134 draws 8
times a turn and must not be in the strategic total.
Also hooks EncounterDetect::AssignContacts, lane I's one inlined-draw site in
ProcessTurn's closure -- invisible to both a call-graph sweep and to the entry-
point detours, so only a boundary hook can see it. It did not fire on this
workload, which is consistent with the site sums reconciling exactly.
Eight End Turns across two saves. A turn costs 18-22 generator words, all of
it inside StrategyServer::ProcessTurn; the tail costs 0; the residual outside
the two drivers is exactly 0 on every complete bracket. The generator does not
move between turns at all, so the interval a standalone has to reproduce is
closed at both ends.
Checked against the save files, not just against itself: the turn-6 autosave
pair gives 18 words read from the two Sim.RNG blobs, with twists == 0 -- so
that number never passes through a twist implementation and the agreement is
about the game rather than about two copies of one algorithm.
P6 was wrong. S+0x8 advances 12-14 times per turn, not twice; both drivers are
hooked so the other increments come from somewhere unidentified. Lane K's 'at
least twice' was right and its conclusion is strengthened.
Node-line decay still has not fired, and the hook now says how far away it is
rather than that it did not happen: 51 of 53 lines are permanent, the mortal
ones are dug ~1/turn by the Zuul, and each is ~40 turns from expiry.
The turn's RNG cost has never been measured end to end. combat-done-tail.md
found two draw sites in OnAllCombatDone_Tail that nothing models and that both
run before the autosave, so a reimplementation that reproduces both ProcessTurn
functions exactly still diverges the first turn a node line expires.
RngLedger recovers an ABSOLUTE WORD POSITION from (mt[624], left) alone, by
indexing the forward-only chain of blocks the twist generates. Word deltas
between any two observations are then exact -- across twists, across NextInt
rejection loops, and across draws nobody hooked. That last point is not
theoretical: the image has four draw entry points, one of which (NextUInt
0x004f7670) appears in no previous lane's primitive set, plus inlined draws in
twelve functions. A primitive-counting hook would have undercounted silently.
Six nested trace hooks bracket one End Turn between the two autosaves and
attribute the words: the two turn drivers, the two tail phases that can draw,
and ProcessNodeSpaceTravel because it runs twice a turn. NodeLineDecay carries
a real model -- one word per expired node line under NodePath::RemainingLife --
so compare mode checks the count rather than reporting it.
Corrections from the instruction stream, both load-bearing:
* StrategyHost::Autosave is ret 8, not ret 4, and returns the std::string* in
EAX. A void-returning hook would have dropped it at both call sites.
* node-line decay's 0x20000-fleet skip runs AFTER the Chance(0.5f) call, not
before, so it cannot change the draw count -- combat-done-tail.md reads as
if it gated the roll.
fpu.sample_turn releases StrategyServer::ProcessTurn, which the fpu sampler and
this ledger both want and MinHook grants to one of them. Default on: no
existing run changes behaviour.
Host ctest 37/37; shim cross-built on CT111; clean-room check OK.
