Periodic Company Control Lane (2026-04-21)

This note preserves the checked evidence behind the current periodic-company queue head, so the short queue can stay focused on the remaining owner question.

Checked Export

• artifacts/exports/rt3-1.06/compact-event-dispatch-cluster-counts.json

Current checked corpus totals:

• maps_scanned = 41
• maps_with_dispatch_strip_rows = 38
• dispatch_strip_record_count = 318
• dispatch_strip_records_with_trigger_kind = 0
• add_building_dispatch_record_count = 10

The add-building subset is still only 7 descriptor keys:

• Barracks
• Bauxite Mine
• FarmGrain
• Furniture Factory
• Logging Camp
• Port01
• Warehouse05

Concrete Carrier Maps

The checked export already keeps the strongest carrier maps visible:

• Texas Tea.gmp for 548 Add Building Port01
• Louisiana.gmp for 563 Add Building Warehouse05
• Alternate USA.gmp for the repeated FarmGrain / Logging Camp ge34 family
• Chicago to New York.gmp and Pacific Coastal.gmp for the mixed [-1:4] cluster

The widened full-corpus cluster surface now keeps the strongest non-add-building families visible too:

• dispatch_signature_condition_cluster_occurrence_counts
  • 36 for nondirect-ge1e-h0001-0360-0004-0100-0200-p0000-0000-0000-ffff :: [864:4]
  • 27 for nondirect-ge1e-h0001-ffff-0004-0000-0200-p0000-0000-0000-ffff :: [-1:4]
• dispatch_signature_condition_cluster_descriptor_keys
  • the 36-occurrence cluster is the broader variable/status family over Economic Status plus Game/Company Variable 1..4
  • the 27-occurrence [-1:4] cluster still mixes those variable families with the two checked add-building descriptors Barracks and Bauxite Mine
• dispatch_signature_condition_cluster_map_paths
  • the 36-occurrence cluster spans 18 maps including Britain.gmp, Chicago to New York.gmp, Crossing the Alps.gmp, and Eastern China.gmp
  • the 27-occurrence [-1:4] cluster spans 14 maps including Alternate USA.gmp, Chicago to New York.gmp, Coast to Coast.gmp, and Go West!.gmp
• the checked periodic-company trace now mirrors the strongest four of those full-corpus families directly through near_city_acquisition_nontransport_top_dispatch_signature_condition_clusters, so the active queue head is no longer backed only by the export file

Top Cluster Carrier Sets

The checked export now keeps the two strongest ordinary nondirect families concrete enough to cite without reopening the full JSON:

• nondirect-ge1e-h0001-0360-0004-0100-0200-p0000-0000-0000-ffff :: [864:4]
  • descriptor family is only Economic Status plus Game/Company Variable 1..4
  • carrier maps are: Britain.gmp, Central Pacific.gmp, Chicago to New York.gmp, Crossing the Alps.gmp, Eastern Canada.gmp, Eastern China.gmp, Go West!.gmp, Italy.gmp, Japan Trembles.gmp, Louisiana.gmp, Mexico.gmp, Mississippi Valley.gmp, New Beginnings.gmp, Orient Express.gmp, South East USA.gmp, Southern Pacific.gmp, Spanish Mainline.gmp, and Tex-Mex.gmp
• nondirect-ge1e-h0001-ffff-0004-0000-0200-p0000-0000-0000-ffff :: [-1:4]
  • descriptor family still mixes the variable lanes with 506 Add Building Barracks and 507 Add Building Bauxite Mine
  • carrier maps are: Alternate USA.gmp, Central Pacific.gmp, Chicago to New York.gmp, Coast to Coast.gmp, Go West!.gmp, Greenland Growing.gmp, Japan Trembles.gmp, New Beginnings.gmp, Pacific Coastal.gmp, Pacific NW.gmp, Rhodes Unfinished.gmp, Southern Pacific.gmp, State of Germany.gmp, and War Effort.gmp

So the active control-lane frontier is no longer “there are one or two sample maps with late ordinary nondirect rows.” The checked corpus now preserves the full map families on both of the strongest recurring nondirect clusters.

Grounded Boundary

The active strip is still:

• 0x00444d92 -> 0x00432f40(kind 8) -> 0x004323a0 -> 0x00431b20

The checked boundary around that strip is now narrow:

• ordinary loaded nondirect rows already reach the 0x00431b20 mutation strip at scale
• the export still shows no recovered trigger kind for any of those checked rows
• the remaining question is therefore not whether ordinary loaded rows can reach the compact dispatch strip, but where they acquire or bypass the missing trigger-kind control lane before placed-structure mutation opcodes run

Closest Already-Grounded Retags

The checked periodic-company service trace now also exposes these grounded control-lane neighbors directly through:

• near_city_acquisition_nontransport_late_bringup_candidate_branches
• near_city_acquisition_nontransport_explicit_trigger_kind_retags

The current artifact notes and trace now agree on the same two explicit late retag writers away from ordinary reload:

• SP - GOLD branch at 0x00443526
  • rewrites [event+0x7ef] from 1 -> 5
• Labor branch at 0x00443601
  • rewrites [event+0x7ef] from 0 -> 2

So the next non-hook question stays above those already-known title or scenario-specific retags:

• which late bringup branch between ordinary reload 0x00433130 and final kind-8 service 0x00432f40 materializes the live mutation-capable ordinary rows
