## Architecture Overview

This is a DECAL plugin for Asheron's Call that tracks monster kills and rare item discoveries. The plugin architecture consists of several key components:

### Core Plugin Framework
- **PluginCore.cs**: Main plugin entry point inheriting from `PluginBase`. Handles Startup/Shutdown lifecycle, event subscriptions (chat, spawn/despawn, login), and coordinates all subsystems.
- **PluginSettings.cs**: Per-character YAML configuration management using YamlDotNet. Settings are stored as `<CharacterName>.yaml` in the plugin directory.

### UI System (VVS Direct Integration)
- **Views/VVSTabbedMainView.cs**: Main tabbed UI using direct VirindiViewService integration. Displays kill stats, rare counts, elapsed time, settings, statistics, and navigation controls.
- **Views/VVSBaseView.cs**: Base class for VVS-based views providing common functionality like window positioning, control access, and resource management.
- **ViewXML/mainViewTabbed.xml**: XML layout definition for the tabbed UI overlay.

### Communication Systems
- **WebSocket.cs**: Bidirectional WebSocket client connecting to `wss://overlord.snakedesert.se/websocket/` for real-time data streaming (spawns, chat, rares) and remote command reception.
- **HttpCommandServer.cs**: Local HTTP server on port 8085 accepting POST commands for remote control.
- **Telemetry.cs**: Periodic HTTP POST of player stats/position to configured endpoint.

### Game Integration
- **vTank.cs + VtankControl.cs**: Interface with vTank automation bot for meta state control and **NAVIGATION CONTROL** ✅
- **MossyInventory.cs**: Inventory change monitoring and logging.
- **DelayedCommandManager.cs**: Queue system for executing chat commands with delays.

### Utility Components
- **Coordinates.cs + Geometry.cs**: Game coordinate system handling and spatial calculations.
- **Utils.cs**: General utility functions for player position, distance calculations, etc.
- **ManyHook.cs**: Low-level Windows message hooking functionality.

### Event Processing Flow
1. **Chat Events**: `OnChatText()` in PluginCore.cs:217 parses kill messages using regex patterns, rare discovery messages, and remote commands from allegiance chat.
2. **World Events**: `OnSpawn()`/`OnDespawn()` in PluginCore.cs:150,171 track monster spawning for WebSocket streaming.
3. **Command Processing**: `/mm` command handler in `HandleMmCommand()` at PluginCore.cs:448 provides comprehensive plugin control interface.

### Important Implementation Notes
- All regex patterns for kill detection are in `IsKilledByMeMessage()` at PluginCore.cs:337
- Settings auto-save on shutdown and load after character login complete
- WebSocket uses session-based authentication with SharedSecret
- Plugin requires `AllowUnsafeBlocks=true` for P/Invoke operations

### Dependencies
- **DECAL Framework**: Core AC plugin framework (Decal.Adapter, Decal.Interop.Core, Decal.Interop.D3DService)
- **VirindiViewService**: UI system for game overlays - used directly without wrapper abstraction
- **Newtonsoft.Json**: JSON serialization for WebSocket/HTTP communication
- **YamlDotNet**: YAML configuration file handling
- **utank2-i.dll**: vTank integration library

### Key Configuration
- Target Framework: .NET Framework 4.8
- Platform: x86 (required for AC integration)
- Unsafe blocks enabled for low-level operations
- VVS direct integration (no wrapper abstraction layer)
- Post-build script generates NSIS installer

### Shared Code Structure
The project links to shared code in `../Shared/` containing common utilities for multiple AC plugins including constants, world object wrappers, settings management, and VCS chat system integration.

### Technical Solution
Resolved "Ambiguous match found" reflection error by specifying exact method signatures:
```csharp
Type[] parameterTypes = new Type[] { typeof(object), assembly.GetType("MetaViewWrappers.MVControlEventArgs") };
var advanceMethod = pluginCoreType.GetMethod("i", 
    System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic | System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance,
    null, parameterTypes, null);
```

### Features Implemented
- ✅ Programmatic waypoint advancement via `/mm nextwp`
- ✅ Navigation state validation (waypoint count, position, nav type)
- ✅ VTank business logic compliance (Target/Once type restrictions)
- ✅ Comprehensive error handling and user feedback
- ✅ Fallback mechanisms for maximum reliability
- ✅ Assembly-based reflection for internal access
