The air as the original moves it

2026-10-1639mplay

The air is now the original's: its test of the move (0x80066014) and the move itself (0x8005f1b4 with 0x8005ee78), proved against the original called on the live player, and in play. All four scripts of tests/hle.rs now match the original across (x and z) on every frame, and the run and jump from the hub's start through its whole flight into toy 403, the bounce off it and the landing (39 frames; it differed by up to 241 from frame 28 before).

The air test (ground::Ground::air, examples/air_check: 2,800 moves in eight levels, 0 different):

• At or past the height field's floor under the body (+0x13c, which the floor test 0x800627a0 queries each frame: the hub's walked floor is a thing at 779 over the field's 1024): landed there.
• Across into the field's floor: a wall facing back (its normal the move turned back, made a unit).
• Else air probes the body's depth past the move along it, its middle and its sides (straight up or down, two only), each five segments (up the body's axis to its top, across at the top, down to its bottom, across at the bottom, down at the probe; met on that last, across again just under it): the objects' first (0x80065210, 0x8006592c), then the field's (0x80065578, 0x80065b3c). A face's kind (0x80067168): a wall, a slope overhead, or a floor to stand on.
• The bottom is the lower of the body's box and its lowest posed joint (+0x68, kept by UpdatePartRotations, 0x8004a5dc).
• A floor to stand on met moving down lands (0x80065cbc): the floor moved to the height there, the thing stood on taken.
• The middle's, right's and left's kinds pick the record kept and the answer (27 cases): clear, a wall (the way turned off it and its slant across, 0x800761c8), a slope overhead to slide along, or held with no way along.
• A segment of the field that does not stop leaves the record as it was (the probe from inside the floor after a floor met).

The air move (Player::air_move): the velocity's step, held at +0x13c; across first, tested without the fall and had as left, then the fall, tested and had. A wall met going up within 512 of where the jump began (+0x670) stops the way across; met head-on (or past a right angle) the body loses its rise and, as at a slant, its way across, and the whole move is had once more that frame; the fall of the first is had as well, so a bounce falls twice (toy 403: 377 to 589). Landed: the state 10. A slope overhead turns the velocity along it. Once the flight has met something (D_800c4bc4 flag 2) the stick no longer pushes and a held jump no longer lifts.

The take-off's height: a moving jump leaves from the run's height that frame; its own state's first keys are not added (the port flew 31 higher than the original, which decides whether the probes reach a thing's top).
