From a961d842d4b9f9701e1cd7713e068c90ecd390b2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Erik Date: Sat, 11 Apr 2026 14:51:41 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] feat(net): full 3-way handshake + ISAAC-encrypted decode proven live (Phase 4.6e) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit This is the Phase 4 protocol-compatibility proof. acdream's codec now completes the full AC UDP handshake against a live ACE server and successfully decodes three consecutive EncryptedChecksum game packets — which means every layer of the codec is byte-compatible with ACE. Changes: - NetClient: added Send(IPEndPoint, ReadOnlySpan) overload so one socket can talk to ACE's two listener ports (9000 for LoginRequest, 9001 for ConnectResponse and all subsequent traffic) - LiveHandshakeTests.Live_FullThreeWayHandshake_ReachesConnectedState: drives the full 3-leg handshake end-to-end. Protocol details that I got wrong on the first attempt and fixed after reading references/holtburger/crates/holtburger-session/src/session/auth.rs: * ConnectResponse header.Sequence = 1 (LoginRequest is seq 0) * ConnectResponse header.Id = 0 (NOT the clientId from ConnectRequest; that field is ACE's internal session index, separate from the packet header Id) * 200ms Thread.Sleep before sending ConnectResponse — holtburger calls this ACE_HANDSHAKE_RACE_DELAY_MS, empirically determined to avoid a server-side race where ACE is still finalizing the session when our ConnectResponse arrives * ConnectResponse goes to port 9001, not 9000 (ACE's second ConnectionListener, see Network/Managers/SocketManager.cs) LIVE RUN OUTPUT: [live] step 1: sending 84-byte LoginRequest to 127.0.0.1:9000 [live] step 2: got 52-byte datagram from 127.0.0.1:9000, flags=ConnectRequest ConnectRequest cookie=0x458ABEE950D18BEE clientId=0x00000000 [live] step 3: sleeping 200ms then sending 28-byte ConnectResponse to 127.0.0.1:9001 ISAAC seeds primed [live] step 4: got 28-byte datagram from :9001, flags=EncryptedChecksum,TimeSync, seq=2 OK [live] step 4: got 64-byte datagram from :9001, flags=EncryptedChecksum,BlobFragments, seq=3 OK [live] step 4: got 152-byte datagram from :9001, flags=EncryptedChecksum,BlobFragments, seq=4 OK [live] step 4: got 24-byte datagram from :9001, flags=AckSequence, seq=4 OK [live] step 4: got 24-byte datagram from :9001, flags=AckSequence, seq=4 OK [live] step 4 summary: 5 packets received, 5 decoded OK, 0 checksum failures What each "OK" proves, reading left to right: * TimeSync (seq=2): our IsaacRandom is byte-compatible with ACE's ISAAC.cs — if a single bit were wrong in any state register the checksum key would mismatch and decode would fail. Our inbound ISAAC consumed one word for this packet. * BlobFragments (seq=3, 64 bytes): header hash + fragment hash + ISAAC key recipe all check out. These fragments contain the start of GameMessageCharacterList / ServerName / DDDInterrogation game messages ACE enqueues right after HandleConnectResponse. We don't parse game message bodies yet (Phase 4.7) but the fragments are fully retrievable from Packet.Fragments. * BlobFragments (seq=4, 152 bytes): continuation of the same game messages; our sequential ISAAC consumption handled two back-to-back encrypted packets correctly. * AckSequence (seq=4): unencrypted mixed with encrypted in the same stream — our codec handles both paths in one session. Everything in AcDream.Core.Net is now proven byte-compatible with a retail AC server at the protocol level. The remaining Phase 4 work (4.6f, 4.7) is above the codec: parsing game message opcodes out of the fragment payloads and routing CreateObject into IGameState so acdream can show the foundry statue and the +Acdream character. Test counts: 77 core + 73 net (+1 new live test) = 150 passing.
