Retires AD-74 (Exit to Character Selection 'behaves as Exit Game') and
files AD-110 (the composed handoff edge) — register rows in this commit.
Retail derivation (named decomp):
- gmGamePlayUI::UseTime @0x004EA3A0: confirmed Yes drains into
CPlayerSystem::LogOffCharacter(0) when grounded (transient_state &
CONTACT); the grounded three-way branch now also covers the
indicator-bar end-session control (it was Options-only).
- CPlayerSystem::LogOffCharacter @0x00563520: SaveToServer FIRST (the
existing pre-logoff flush hook), then RequestLogOff @0x00562DD0:
'Logging off...' chat (type 0), 0xF653 via Proto_UI::LogOffCharacter
@0x00546A20, logOffRequestTime = now + 3.0 (+20.0 when
IsPlayerKiller @0x0058C910 — PWD bits 0x20|0x2000000), and
CommandInterpreter::HandleLogOff @0x006B3330 -> Disable.
- The log-off ANIMATION is server-driven: ACE broadcasts
MotionCommand.LogOut (0x1000011E, Player.cs:596 SendMotionAsCommands)
and it plays on the local player through the existing inbound
unpack_movement funnel during the 3 s hold — retail plays nothing
locally; Disable() is the whole client-side effect.
- gmSmartBoxUI::UseTime @0x004D6E64: hold elapsed ->
BeginTeleportAnimation(TAS_WORLD_FADE_OUT) @0x004D6E83 (enter cue
@0x004D638E, unconditional) -> TunnelFadeIn -> Tunnel. The tunnel
plays the SAME forward 40 fps animation; nothing renders backwards,
and NO exit cue ever fires on logout (the char-select swap preempts
the TunnelContinue/FadeOut tail).
- Inbound 0xF653 echo (dispatch case 3 @0x0055C963) ->
ExecuteLogOff @0x0055D780: world teardown with the LOGON CONNECTION
KEPT (ExitWorldDisconnect @0x00541E00 removes every connection
except logonRecID_ — one connection against ACE) and
Proto_UI::SetEventCounter(0) @0x00541E79; the fresh CharacterList in
the same batch re-shows character management (gmGamePlayUI::Update
@0x004E9CD0 -> QueueUIMode(0x1000000a)). ACE mirrors it:
SendFinalLogOffMessages (Session.cs:249) sends 0xF653 + CharacterList
+ ServerName >=6 s after the request and leaves the session
AuthConnected — a second EnterWorld needs no re-handshake.
Implementation:
- RuntimeWorldTransitState: the canonical logout lifecycle
(Requested/PresentationActive/Confirmed, retail 3 s/+20 s holds,
cancel/reset/ownership convergence).
- WorldSession: RequestCharacterLogOff (non-blocking 0xF653),
IsCharacterLogOffConfirmed, ReturnToCharacterSelect (InWorld ->
InCharacterSelect + game-action sequence reset; transport untouched).
- LiveSessionController: BeginCharacterLogOff (flush-first request) and
CompleteCharacterLogOff — the return-to-selection transaction
(ReconnectCore minus the transport swap: retire the world
generation's routes, host reset, state flip, fresh generation
re-bind, roster re-applied from the pushed CharacterList; failures
degrade to the full StopCore teardown).
- RuntimeLocalPlayerMovementState.DisableCommandInterpreter +
DispatcherMovementInputSource gate: retail's Disable() — held keys
produce no movement while the server LogOut motion plays; cleared by
the generation reset.
- LocalPlayerTeleportController: the logout pump as the third arm of
the one wormhole machine (request/hold/wormhole/confirmed handoff;
teleport starts refused during logout; the handoff runs the session
transaction whose world reset retires the tunnel as the fresh
selection state re-shows the character screen).
- UI: both end-session surfaces share the retail three-way grounded
gate and now run the REAL flow; Options' Exit Game keeps the app
exit (window close -> the existing graceful-shutdown logoff).
Tests: +5 transit lifecycle, +4 session transaction, +7 logout pump.
Runtime 1756/0 (baseline 1747), App live-DAT 5523/3 (baseline 5512/3
+ 11 this round), Core.Net 1004/0, full solution green (0 failures).

USER-DIRECTED deviation from retail (register row AD-109, same commit):
retail presents the empty pre-player gameplay screen — black behind the
retained UI — from the Enter click (CPlayerSystem::LogOnCharacter
@0x0055F890 -> CM_Login::SendNotice_BeginEnterWorld @0x006AD810, UI mode
0x10000008) until CreatePlayer raises SmartBox::teleport_in_progress
@0x00451C20 and gmSmartBoxUI::UseTime @0x004D6EAB begins TAS_TUNNEL. The
user prefers the tunnel to cover that whole wait.
- ILocalPlayerTeleportNetworkSink.ArmLoginTunnel: begins the login
wormhole presentation at the Enter click, consuming the sequencer's
begin-edge events SYNCHRONOUSLY (the Enter command blocks the update
thread for the whole ServerReady round trip, so a deferred first tick
would leave exactly the black window this deviation removes). The
enter cue plays at the click: retail's own rule is cue-at-animation-
begin (Sound_UI_EnterPortal @0x004D638E, unconditional inside
BeginTeleportAnimation), and the animation begin moved to the click.
- Armed pre-reveal pump: tunnel animates across the round trip
(worldReady pinned false, sequencer holds in Tunnel); the hold clock
accumulates from the click.
- Adoption: the Runtime login reveal ADOPTS the running presentation
(no re-Begin, no second cue); rejected EnterWorld (lifecycle back to
AwaitingSelection) disarms and retires the tunnel.
- Wired at the ONE host edge every entry route shares:
ILiveSessionLifecycleHost.ApplySelectedCharacter (direct connect,
roster Enter, enter-after-create) via
LiveSessionSelectionBindings.ArmLoginTunnel (default no-op keeps
headless and every existing construction site unchanged).
- ILocalPlayerLoginLifecycleSource: typed seam (not a stored delegate —
the frame-phase owner delegate-field guard) projecting the Runtime
character-selection lifecycle for the disarm edge.
- Frame contract update: [login-frames] over a login is tunnel -> world
from the click — no void, and no black between click and world.
Tests: 4 new armed-tunnel tests (arm/adopt/disarm/frame-shape); App
suite live-DAT 5516 passed / 3 skipped (baseline 5512/3 + 4 new).

The login tunnel now covers from the first world-facing frame (the
sky-void backdrop can never present pre-tunnel) and holds through an
atomic tunnel-to-world swap at reveal completion — the void is
structurally unreachable on both edges, pinned by frame-sequence tests
across WorldSceneRenderer/WorldRevealCoordinator/LocalPlayerTeleport-
Controller/RuntimeWorldTransitState. Vitals detail icons draw at their
authored centered offsets in both stacked and side-by-side layouts.
Implemented and live-probed by the fix agent; finalized by the lead
after the agent parked post-verification (gates re-run green:
App 5512/3, Runtime 1747/0).

Retail runs the SAME TAS_TUNNEL wormhole at initial login as at an F751
teleport, with no F751 involved: SmartBox::teleport_in_progress
@0x00451C20 returns 1 the moment the login player exists with
position_update_complete == 0, gmSmartBoxUI::UseTime @0x004D6EAB
edge-detects it into BeginTeleportAnimation(TAS_TUNNEL) @0x004D6EC9
(playing Sound_UI_EnterPortal @0x004D638E), SmartBox::UseTime
@0x00455483 ends the hold once destination cells stop blocking,
Sound_UI_ExitPortal plays at the viewport swap @0x004D7405, and
LoginComplete goes out at the WorldFadeIn end @0x004D745D ->
CPlayerSystem::SendLoginCompleteNotification @0x00562E90 (ACE's own
GameActionLoginComplete comment names this contract: 'called when the
client player exits portal space. It includes initial login'). acdream
skipped all of it at login — every entry route (direct auto-select,
character-select Enter, enter-after-create) dropped onto the sky-only
'waiting for login' backdrop until the world reveal completed.
The fix engages the EXISTING F751 presentation machinery on Runtime's
login reveal — no duplicated presentation code, no timers:
- LocalPlayerTeleportController gains a login arm keyed off the
Runtime-owned login reveal generation (RuntimeWorldTransitState
.BeginLoginReveal, begun on the first accepted local-player position
on every entry route). It drives the same TeleportAnimSequencer/
PortalTunnelPresentation lifecycle and the same enter/exit cues; the
Place edge is a no-op at login (the first-entry conductor already
committed the canonical placement — retail's analogue only flips
position_update_complete), and FireLoginComplete now performs
EnterWorld + the single LoginComplete send + reveal Complete, exactly
like the F751 pump. worldReady is latched on BOTH canonical first
placement (OnLocalPlayerFirstEntryCompleted, the repointed
GraphicalSessionEventRoute completion callback that used to send
LoginComplete immediately) AND destination reveal readiness.
ActiveDestinationCell now also reports the login destination so the
render frame's reveal-preparation arm keeps running after portal-space
entry flips ChaseModeEverEntered.
- PlayerModeController.TryEnterPortalSpaceForLogin performs the
player-mode presentation attach (the same BuildControllerAndCamera the
post-reveal auto-entry used to run) before flipping into portal space
— at login no player-mode entry has happened yet. TryEnterPortalSpace
itself now refuses (retryable) on a constructed-but-unpublished
Runtime controller via the documented CanExecuteLiveMovement skip
predicate instead of faulting — the first connected run crashed on
exactly that pre-publication State write.
- HouseQuery stays at first-entry completion (retail: tail-called from
CPlayerSystem::InitializePlayer @0x00563570, an object-arrival edge,
not a tunnel edge).
- An F751 arriving mid-login-tunnel withdraws the login claim and hands
the presentation to the portal pump, which owns the single
LoginComplete — matching retail's one teleportInProgress flag.
TS-28 narrowed: the graphical host now runs the full login wormhole;
the residual is headless-only (no presentation; placement-edge send).
Live gates (testaccount2/+Horan vs local ACE, Release): the
character-select Enter route and the --session-config direct auto-select
route both play the wormhole with Sound_UI_EnterPortal at animation
begin, hold with retail's 'In Portal Space - Please Wait...' notice
until readiness, fade out with the view-plane warp, send LoginComplete
at the WorldFadeIn end, and materialize in Holtburg; ACE-confirmed
graceful logout. Tests: App 5493/3 skips (baseline 5490 + 3 new login
tests), Runtime 1744/0, full solution green.

Slice A4 hung UI_EnterPortal on TeleportAnimEvent.EnterTunnel — the first
tunnel-family frame — so the cue landed a whole TunnelFadeIn after retail
plays it. Retail's site is gmSmartBoxUI::BeginTeleportAnimation
@0x004D638E, i.e. Begin(), which the sequencer already marks as
TeleportAnimEvent.PlayEnterSound.
That event has existed since the R6 portal-space work, complete with a
'Begin(): sound_ui_enter_portal' comment, and no consumer has ever
handled it — the switch in LocalPlayerTeleportController had cases for
Place, EnterTunnel, PlayExitSound and FireLoginComplete only, so the
sequencer emitted PlayEnterSound into nothing. A4 filled the gap in the
wrong place rather than filling it.
Both cues now go through named presentation methods driven by the
matching events: PlayEnterCue on PlayEnterSound, PlayExitCue on
PlayExitSound (the TunnelFadeOut -> WorldFadeIn edge, @0x004D7405, the
same tick the world viewport is revealed). EnterTunnel/ExitTunnel are
visuals again. The exit cue was already firing at the right moment, since
ExitTunnel was called from inside the PlayExitSound case — correct by
accident, explicit now.
Found by the user asking when the recall cues play.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Retail's UI sound bank was absent, so three families of cue were silent:
the portal enter/exit stingers, the AdminEnvirons dungeon atmosphere
(chanting, drums, whispers, thunder — what players remember as dungeon
'music'), and every other interface slot.
The bank's DID is not a literal anywhere in retail: GetUISoundTable
@0x00563FB0 asks GetByEnum for enum slot 7, and DBCache::GetDIDFromEnum
@0x00413940 resolves it through two EnumIDMap hops off the portal dat
header's master map. UiSoundTableResolver walks that chain the way
RetailCursorResolver already walks it for cursors. Against the shipped
dats it resolves to 0x2000004B, and that table holds exactly the 32 UI_*
slots (UI_EnterPortal 0x6A .. UI_Thunder6 0x8A) — content that confirms
the walk independently of the decode. UiSoundTableResolutionTests pins
the walk, the DID, and the content, and skips when dats are absent.
Two corrections to the research along the way. The lane-5 note recorded
GetByEnum's arguments transposed: the 0x22 it called a fileType is the
CACHE type (CLOCache(cache, CSoundTable::Allocator, 0x22)) and the real
second-hop key is 0x10000003; walking it the other way finds nothing. And
its claim that the interface volume pref applies is wrong — GetAttenuation
with ambient=0 multiplies by the EFFECT knob, so retail's
interface_sound_volume stays the dead knob lane 1 byte-decoded it to be.
EnvironSoundCueMap is an explicit 21-case table read straight out of
Handle_Admin__Environs @0x0055DE20, not arithmetic: codes 0x65..0x72 sit
0x11 below their SoundType, but 0x73/0x74 have no case, so 0x75 lands on
UI_Squeal (0x84) where an offset gives 0x86, and the switch ends at 0x7B
with no 0x7C case. Verified case-by-case against the decomp rather than
from the lane note, whose tail table was ambiguous.
Cues are attached where retail plays them: the teleport-animation
boundary for the portal pair, and the AdminEnvirons handler for the
stingers. PlaySoundFromCenter's pan-0 / distance-0 shape is what
PlayUiWave already implements after A2.
Retires TS-54. Narrows AP-115 to its notice-presentation residual.

Removes a duplicate placement authority for local-player portal arrival.
Portalling worked before this change and works after it — this is not a
bug fix, EXCEPT that it found and fixed one dead-code production bug.
THE PRODUCTION BUG: TryExecuteCanonicalPortalPlacement re-read the
accepted destination at Place time, but TryBeginPortalReveal already
consumes that slot at Aim time — so the arm was 100% dead code and every
real portal Place refused with host-token-unavailable. Found only
because we refused to accept 7 skipped tests instead of chasing the
count to zero.
RETAIL IS THE GENERIC PATH FOR THE THIRD ROUTE RUNNING:
SmartBox::TeleportPlayer @0x00453910 = SetPositionSimple(dest, 1) with
flags 0x1012, followed by PlayerPositionUpdated.
BOTH INVERSIONS, WITH THEIR ANCHORS: unlike route 2, the leash IS armed
here (ConstrainTo @0x0045418A) and velocity is zeroed
(set_velocity @0x004541B4); unlike route 4b-3, the local teleport_hook
runs AFTER placement (@0x004538AE).
THE THREE-ROUND DEFECT CHAIN, HONESTLY:
- Round 1 released the player at the pre-teleport position while the
anim stream marched on — the contract wrongly assumed Place re-fires
(process rule 1's third occurrence this campaign).
- Round 2's fix inferred commit from a global PendingCount, which three
non-committing paths also clear — making the SAME bug complete
cleanly and silently. Strictly worse than round 1: round 1 at least
tripped portal-complete-before-materialized.
- Round 3 latches the commit where it actually happens
(ReconcileAndAcknowledgePortal), keyed on reveal generation and
teleport sequence, via TryConsumePortalCommit. Two of the three
required regression tests landed and are sabotage-verified on both
hosts (ParkedPlace_ForgottenByOrdinaryMergeDoesNotLatchAsCommitted /
HeadlessPortalPrepareDestinationForgottenByOrdinaryMergeDoesNotLatchAsCommitted).
The third (force-arm-takes-the-slot) was judged unnecessary on review:
with the inference gone, PendingCount is only a "don't ask yet" guard
at both gates, so a force operation occupying or vacating the slot no
longer changes an input the commit decision reads — the case collapses
into what the landed test already discriminates.
THE B2/P3 RESOLUTION: both round-2 reviews were right about different
branches of the same synchronous call. RuntimePlacementProjectionSubscription
.OnPlacement acknowledges the FIFO head only when TryApply returns true;
a Place whose portal authority went stale (transit ended/superseded
while parked) used to return false, wedging every later entity's
placement receipt behind it forever. Both sinks
(RuntimePlacementPresentationSink, HeadlessRuntimePlacementProjectionSink)
now acknowledge-and-ignore a stale-authority Place instead of refusing
it. The regression test (RuntimePlacementPresentationSinkTests
.PortalPlace_StaleTransitHostOrSequenceIsAcknowledgedAndIgnored) had
been asserting the old, wrong `false` behaviour; it now asserts and
sabotage-verifies the fix.
Also lands: AP-144 (register discipline — the portal movement-event
send reuses the stricter UsePositionFromServer gate where retail's
SendMovementEvent is the looser autonomy_level != 0 test, diverging
only at level 1, currently unreachable), AP-145 + issue #318 (the
local-player collision-shadow presentation write bypasses its own
publisher's ShadowObjects write via a direct cache .Set(), self-healing
only once dedup diverges — filed, not fixed, pending a composition
test), AD-42 deleted (its last citation retired by the canonical portal
arm), AD-2 updated (the wait-cue's trigger predicate now covers a
second cause), and two documentation corrections: the enter_world
misattribution (both call sites are in SmartBox::HandleCreateObject,
only one in the player branch — portal arrival is TeleportPlayer, not
enter_world) and the stale "local player never reaches this path"
comment on the generic-remote-render-pose write.
Suite: 11,090 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed. No new skips, nothing
weakened.
STILL OWED: the connected two-client gate, with
ACDREAM_PROBE_LOCAL_TELEPORT=1, scored only if [local-tp] lines
actually appear in the capture — and explicitly NOT scored as covering
issue #318 (no composition test yet asserts PhysicsEngine.ShadowObjects
directly).

Move canonical per-session teardown into one retryable Runtime transaction, reduce App reset to projection acknowledgements, and prove the same GameRuntime graph through deterministic no-window lifecycle, gameplay, portal, fault, reconnect, and isolation gates.\n\nCo-authored-by: Codex <noreply@openai.com>
Move remote-motion construction, CreateObject vector initialization, final simulation-component retirement, and the combined J5 ownership ledger into Runtime. Delete App compatibility views and moved-state reconstruction while preserving the existing graphical projection and retail update order.
Move the canonical WorldSession generation, connect/enter/tick/stop transaction, inbound subscription owner, and retryable teardown acknowledgements into AcDream.Runtime. Keep App as a borrowing graphical host with a single inertable command projection and no mirrored session state.

Retail installs the destination CObjCell before hidden world simulation resumes. Rebucket the retained local-player projection inside the Place transaction so Hidden/UnHide scripts and particles settle behind the portal viewport instead of firing after reveal. Preserve the existing unloaded-cell scheduler gate and pin the ordering with a cross-landblock placement test.

Detach old-world spatial ownership atomically, prioritize destination retirement dependencies, and reveal the viewport at the retail transition edge. Give private paperdoll views independent mesh ownership and retain dormant ACE entities so portal revisits preserve server objects without extending active GPU lifetimes.
Join destination scheduling to the canonical reveal generation, protect its share across every typed frame-budget dimension, and prevent stale work from clearing a replacement reservation. Remove forced incomplete materialization and project retail's centered portal wait cue while the authored tunnel remains active.
Tests: Release build clean; 91 focused reservation/reveal tests; full solution 8,158 passed, 5 skipped.

Publish the retail blocking-for-cells edge before deferred recenter work, freeze old-world presentation/simulation/audio, and advance full-window retirement from exact metered entity and owner cursors. This removes synchronous portal teardown without allowing retained owners to remain observable.
Move streaming, live-session, hydration, local-player, combat, and teleport construction behind the typed Phase-7 boundary. Add exact-owner runtime bindings and focused spawn-claim classification so partial startup rolls back without retaining old session targets while preserving the accepted construction and frame dependencies.
