Server: HealthApplyDamageSystem marks EnemyTag Dying{UntilTick} (TickUtil.
NonZero, ~54 ticks) on the lethal 0-crossing instead of instant destroy,
zeroes every live cue (replicated AttackWindup, LungeState + IsLunging bit,
KnockbackState), destroys on expiry; plain-world tests keep instant destroy
(no NetworkTime) so the suite's assertions stay meaningful.
Every consumer now ignores corpses (all confirmed entity-count/unfiltered by
the design review): EnemyAISystem all 4 passes, BossAISystem brain + summon
cap, RoomEnemyDirector room-clear + MaxAlive fit, WaveSystem cap + cleared,
CyclePhaseSystem breach wipe + DefendCleared, ThreatDirector timeout cull,
TurretFire targeting, CoreDamage drain, ProjectileDamage snapshot (corpses
are not shields), AbilityFire auto-aim candidates, debug cull + telemetry.
Wipe passes skip Dying to avoid cross-ECB double-destroys.
Client: EnemyAnimationDriveSystem finally drives the controller's IsDead
param (Health.Current<=0 is the replicated death read; corpse locomotion
zeroed); CombatFeedbackSystem moves the kill CRUNCH to the 0-crossing (the
prune-edge timing would land it ~1 s late) - the prune keeps a small
dissolve puff for corpses and the legacy full read for alive-vanish culls.

BossState (server-only) + BossAISystem: sole mover, seek -> telegraphed
radial slam (AttackWindup) -> phase-2 speed + swarmer summon. Excluded from
the EnemyAISystem Charger pass; knockback-immune at all 3 stamp sites;
arena-anchored spawn; scaled Health/HitRadius/AttackRange. Grunt windup now
commits in its last ~30% (whiffs out-of-range); Charger stagger roots; grunt
speed 4.2->5.2; swarmer telegraph synced. SweptMove + zone-enemy spawn-stamp
extracted to shared helpers. Zero new [GhostField].
