Four float constants in ComputeBudget have a width a C++ port gets wrong by
default, and the corpus exercises the boundary of exactly one. That one is now
measured against the running game, with a control build that must fail and does.
savings interest (double)0.01f boundary: treasury a multiple of 100 IN CORPUS
debt interest (double)0.15f boundary: a negative treasury not in corpus
research yield (double)0.85f boundary: research money mult of 40k not in corpus
the three ResMod summed in f32 boundary: two of three non-zero not in corpus
Three constants sitting beside those, in the same expressions, are EXACT doubles
and must not be "corrected" -- so "widen every literal" is its own defect and the
only safe procedure is to read each operand. Same pattern elsewhere in the chain:
ComputeOutputFromRates multiplies by an exact 1.5 then a widened 1.2f two
instructions later, and NormaliseOutputRates holds 1e-4 at BOTH widths.
Live result (VM146, turn1-state.sav, three runs): the game pays 499 interest on a
treasury of 50,000 and 380 on 38,100; the exact decimals pay 500 and 381. Every
divergence in the control build lands on a multiple of 100 and nothing else
diverges at all. Coverage stated as distinct states, not calls: 5 distinct
treasuries, 2 on the boundary -- against the earlier green run's 20 distinct
states, none on a boundary.
BANKRUPTCY_PROTECTION_LIMIT_FACTOR read live: 3.29999995 = (float)3.3. Its file
image is zero because the loader fills it at run time, so lane PL-3 could read the
width and had to assume the value. The assumption was right and is now measured.
Falsified: the difficulty-mods record does not sit inline at ServerPlayer+0x36c;
that field is a heap pointer on all eight players. Recorded as a hypothesis with
the measurement, not as a fact.
Second finding, from the rule-19 control: turn1-state -> turn2 is NOT a
deterministic pair. Three runs gave three post-turn autosaves differing in exactly
four leaves -- one Singularity shadow empire's research pick and the derived
checksum. Two of the three runs carried identical hooks, and the un-instrumented
run was a third value, so this is the game and not the instrument. The
determinism oracle stands for ref-turn2 -> turn3 and does not generalise to its
neighbour; no lane should use this pair as a byte-match oracle.
