-## Native parity gaps
+## Multiplier timeline playback
+
+The host previously called `UpdateLineDisplay` every fixed tick. The shipped
+action at 019C39 computes `floor(GetLineTimeRemaining() * 60) - 30`, clamps
+it, and seeks `multiTimer_mc` with `gotoAndPlay` at 019CF4. Since the native
+binding returns whole seconds, repeated calls pin the 501-frame timer to the
+same frame for a second, then jump it forward. The ActionScript dispatches
+this method for event11 (0196CC) and ScreenShow, rather than onEnterFrame.
+The adapter now dispatches when the exposed timer sample or line score changes,
+allowing the authored timeline to advance between samples. This is an adapter
+event policy; the entire native HUD event producer is not yet ported.
+
+Original x3 effect clips are retained: character59 changes mBlueGlow alpha
+with `80 + Math.random() * 20` every four frames; character70 changes mFlicker
+with `90 + Math.random() * 10`. Original multiplier labels select the glow
+and background timelines (characters66 and77); no replacement particles,
+colors or universal x3 effect were added to lower multiplier levels.
+
+The supplied-data movie audit now visits x1.5, x2 and x3 over 1,800 frames,
+asserts consecutive timer frames between events, checks both flicker ranges
+and changing alpha values, and reaches 40 authored draw batches. The scoring
+flow audit still passes landing persistence, line expiry and cancellation.
+No game or GPU capture was launched.

+## Remaining native parity gaps
 
 These are implementation gaps, not merely missing gameplay validation:
