An online room this build hosts asks the lobby server for transport "host"
(match_caps.relay): the host carries the match on its own UDP port and
guests dial it; the server's relay (SFU) is the fallback when a guest's
probe fails (recomp-net-server WS_LOBBY.md "Host relay"). The mechanics are
recomp-net's recomp_net/host_relay.h, pinned here (lib/recomp-net b0751b7);
this engine's own lobby-client copy gets the same glue as rnet_lobby_client:
the cap (emitted only when asked), the launch's transport ->
PsxLobbyJoinInfo.transport_host (force_input_relay 0; the host accepts
first / hubs instead of dialling the guest's LAN address), each seat's
published path / path_fresh, host_relay_step() from psx_lobby_pump, and
unmap on leave / disconnect.
psx_netplay: transport_host takes the LAN / hub path instead of the "MotK
online needs the SFU" rule. main.cpp: relay_host_get/set + relay_status
for recomp-ui (Network Settings / MATCH SETTINGS / ROOM "Match Relay"),
transport_host on the launch and into PsxNetplayConfig, and the
host==guest-advertise SFU inference skipped on a host launch; all under
RECOMP_LAUNCHER_HAS_HOST_RELAY so older recomp-ui pins still build.
Compile-checked against workspace recomp-ui 58604b0 (MOTK scratch
configure: full build and link).

recomp-net now carries the peer-facing rollback modules that used to live in
retcomm-rbengine (RetroPortingToolKit/recomp-net#14). Switch the MotK shims and
psx_netplay_sched.c from rbe_sched_* / rbe_ih_* / rbe_hc_* /
rbe_rb_peer_post_tip_ok to their rnet_* names and recomp_net/ headers, and bump
lib/recomp-net to c2338c6.
The netplay_* / np_sched_* surface the rest of the runtime calls is unchanged.
The snap ring and rbe_mono_ms still come from retcomm-rbengine, which stays at
a7b9850 for now; the three moved-module unit tests link recomp_net directly
instead of reaching it through rbengine. RBE_RB_* env knobs keep their names.
Checked with PSX_NETPLAY=ON: psx-runtime links and the netplay tests pass
against both the current rbengine and the split one (rbengine
refactor/launcher-core), and the binary's 33 scheduler / history /
hash-confirm functions now resolve to rnet_* where they were rbe_*.
lobby_chat_ring_test does not compile on master either (chat_push arity) and
is untouched here.

Seat 1 (P2) can bring its LOCAL slot-1 card to a match: it uploads the card
to the host at launch over the new recomp-net MEMCARD op, the host installs
it as the match's slot-2 card, and the usual card broadcast carries it to
everyone. The host's real slot-2 file is rebound to netplay/guest_card2.mcd
for the session and restored on shutdown; guests already sandbox both slots.
Lobby side: a per-seat memcard_offer on set_ready (has_card, share), a host
allow flag in match_caps, and guest_memcard_active settled ONCE by the host
at start and shipped with the launch, so a toggle racing the start cannot
split the room. LAN carries the same over MOTK5 UPDATE / MEMCARD / JOIN
tail / a trailing START line. PSX_NET_GUEST_MEMCARD=1 for CLI sessions;
a host waiting on a card that never comes stalls at a named phase
(mc_guest_wait), not a silent "ok".
Two latent guest-sandbox bugs fixed on the way: a disabled slot 2 had no
bound path, so a host blob carrying a card for it failed to import and the
guest stalled forever; and leaving the sandbox re-bound a disabled slot to
the sandbox file. Both slots are now bound in the sandbox and restored per
slot (memcard_rebind_path, which can also unbind).
Lobby chat: the client keeps a ring fed by the server's echo (op:chat);
LAN rooms relay through the host (MOTK5 CHATREQ guest->host, MOTK5 CHAT
host->everyone). Wired to the launcher's chat_send/chat_count/chat_get.
Also carries the spectator-seat work that was in the tree alongside this
(spectator seats in the lobby client, spectator_wire_slot in the launch).

Wire lib/retcomm-rbengine beside recomp-net and replace MotK in-tree sched,
hash_confirm, input hist, snap ring, and rb_post with thin PSX shims so the
ecosystem can share invent/pacing policy outside each title facade.
