ENTITY_ID: grand-th
SYSTEM_LOG: INTERNAL_MILESTONES
The following data was retrieved via an encrypted packet transmission. While the reliability is high (80%), final dates are subject to project stabilization.
1. PROJECT STATUS: STABILIZATION_PHASE
The build has entered the final optimization cycle. Internal benchmarks on "Target Hardware A" (likely PS5 Pro) are maintaining a stable 60FPS in city centers.
2. THE BOTTLENECK: CROWD_AI
The primary delay factor currently identified is the Neural Crowd System. Rockstar's new middleware for individual NPC decision-making is consuming more CPU cycles than anticipated on base console hardware.
