    objective: "WAVE 2 (Option B): ensure milestone credit (achievement + life-goal) earned while a player is OFFLINE is not lost. The 60s offline job advances the character through milestone windows (e.g. graduation) and self-marks player.events, but its lifecycleQueue pushes are transient/undrained and no achievement/lifeGoal grant runs offline, so the credit is permanently lost. FIRST confirm the exact mechanism, THEN implement the cleanest bounded fix (preferred: drain the per-player lifecycleQueue server-side — grant achievements + run evaluateGoals — at the point the offline job finishes processing that player, before save; reconnect-time backfill is an acceptable alternative).
