The retail Options panel (Campaign OP) needs a Runtime-owned option map
covering all 53 PlayerOption ids and the real batched SetCharacterOptions
(0x01A1) blob before any UI can be built on top of it. Today's surface only
modeled 6 ListenTo*Chat ids and the 0x01A1 builder was a malformed 16-byte
stub (deleted at Campaign CH slice CH3, docs/research/2026-08-09-chat-side-
channels-vs-ace.md).
- CharacterOptionTable.cs: the ONE typed table, PlayerOption id (0x00..0x34)
-> (Options1/Options2 word, mask, IsAutoSave, ClientDefault), transcribed
from acclient.h's verbatim CharacterOption/CharacterOptions2/PlayerOption
enums and byte-verified against IsAutoSaveOption @0x0059A600 (the 21-id
auto-save table) and GetDefaultOptionValue @0x005D2A30 (the Defaults-
button table). Reconstructing CharacterOptions1/2 defaults from the
ClientDefault column independently reproduces 0x50C4A54A / 0x00008700,
cross-confirming the id-mask mapping. CharacterOptionId (SocialActions.cs)
widened from 6 to all 53 ids to match.
- RuntimeCharacterOptionsState: SetOptionBit now resolves through the full
table (was a 6-case switch). New TrySetOption is the ONE shared local-
write-then-send/dirty seam — mirrors CPlayerModule::OnChanged exactly:
write the bit locally first, then either send 0x0005 immediately (auto-
save ids) or MarkDirty for the batched blob, no-op on an unchanged value
(retail's own early-return) or an unmodeled id. New dirty model (IsDirty/
FirstDirtiedAt/MarkDirty/TryFlush/TryFlushIfAutoSaveDue) uses an injected
TimeProvider so it's fully unit-testable without a live clock.
- Both IRuntimeCharacterCommands.SetSingleOption adapters (Direct + Current)
now route through TrySetOption instead of duplicating the write; this
fixes the headless local-write gap the OP1 research flagged (the direct
adapter previously sent the wire message without writing the bit first,
same class of bug CH4 fixed for the graphical host). Both also reject an
id outside the table instead of silently accepting it. LiveSessionRuntime
Factory's SendSingleCharacterOption closure now delegates to the same
seam instead of duplicating write-then-send inline.
- New IRuntimeCharacterCommands.SaveOptions(generation) — the explicit
blob-flush verb (retail's SaveToServer(force: 0)) — wired end-to-end in
both adapters, including a new SaveCharacterOptionsRuntimeCmd on the
graphical router.
- SocialActions.BuildSetCharacterOptions + WorldSession.SendSetCharacterOptions:
the real PlayerModule::Pack body per the wire research's field-by-field
layout — header always 0x460 OR'd with 0x001/0x008 when shortcuts/desired
comps are non-empty, favorite spells always 8 lists, never sets 0x100 or
0x200. Echoes last-parsed shortcuts/favorites/desired-comps/spellbook
filters (via new CharacterOptionsBlobSource) instead of zeroing them.
Conformance: a hand-computed golden byte vector (not generated by the
builder under test — the CH3 builder died of tests that pinned a wrong
shape and looked green) plus a round-trip through PlayerDescriptionParser.
Contract deviation: the 480 s auto-save timer and the flush-before-logout
trigger are implemented as fully-tested pure state-machine logic
(TryFlushIfAutoSaveDue) but are NOT wired into either host's live per-frame
loop or graceful-shutdown sequence in this slice — only the explicit
SaveOptions verb is production-wired. Wiring the timer touches App's
UpdateFrameOrchestrator graph and Headless's tick loop (outside this
slice's Runtime/wire-layer scope); wiring logout risks the already-fragile
graceful-shutdown sequence CLAUDE.md flags. Filed as TS-71 per the plan's
own escape valve ("target: not deferred" with a register row if deferred).
Also filed: AP-193 (the 0x34 HearPKDeathMessages id/mask is ACE-sourced,
unverifiable against the 2013 binary) and AP-194 (GetDefaultOptionValue's
table disagrees with the constructor default for ConfirmVolatileRareUse/
ShowHelm/ShowCloak — retail's own quirk, reproduced not fixed).
Tests: table completeness x53, auto-save/client-default split pinned
id-by-id against the byte-verified tables, unknown/reserved-id rejection
(0x35/0x36 landmines), local-write-then-send on both adapters + the router,
the dirty/flush state machine, SaveOptions, and the wire golden vector +
PlayerDescriptionParser round-trip. Full Release suite: 12,745 passed / 4
skipped / 0 failed (baseline 12,611/4/0 — slice adds 134 passing tests,
zero regressions).

Ports retail's SendTurbineChat (@0x0057db10) local pre-send membership gate
so Roleplay/Society/Olthoi stop silently swallowing outbound chat: a new
TurbineChatMembershipGate checks Turbine availability and the player's own
Hear*Chat option before sending, raising "Turbine chat is not available."
or the 0x0551 YouAreNotListeningTo_Channel refusal through the CH2 AddText
chokepoint instead. Wired into both the graphical (LiveSessionCommandRouter)
and headless (DirectGameRuntimeCommandAdapter) send paths so they can't
diverge. Retracts the 26-day-old false "ACE doesn't run a TurbineChat
server" claim from ISSUES.md, the roadmap, and project_chat_pipeline.md —
ACE's TurbineChat implementation is complete and on by default; the real
bug was treating Hear*Chat as a display filter instead of room membership.
Also: implements SetSingleCharacterOption (0x0005), the only wire message
that actually joins/leaves a Turbine room, and wires the five Settings Chat
toggles to it (publish on Save, changed bits only) plus seeds ChatSettings
from the server's own CharacterOptions2 on every PlayerDescription. Fixes
the legacy-channel double-print (Fellow/Vassals/Patron/Monarch/CoVassals
skip the local echo now that ChatChannelInfo.IsSelfEchoChannel is finally
consulted). Routes /a to Turbine unconditionally (retail's @a never falls
back to the legacy bitflag) and adds /ab for the legacy AllegianceBroadcast
verb retail actually has. Surfaces a nonzero TurbineChat ack HResult instead
of discarding it silently. Deletes the malformed, callerless SetCharacterOptions
(0x01A1) and AddChannel/RemoveChannel (0x0145/0x0146) builders.
Files every AC-specific algorithm change cites the named retail decomp
(SendTurbineChat 0x0057db10, StartupTurbineChatSystem 0x0057EFB0,
GameActionSetSingleCharacterOption) plus ACE/holtburger cross-checks.
Register rows AP-181 (no client-side spam throttle) and UN-9 (an
incidentally-discovered CharacterOptions1.Default literal mismatch, not
investigated further) filed per the divergence-register rule.
11,957 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (full Release suite, up from the
11,916/4/0 baseline).

The user watched far terrain visibly assemble after portal space exits.
The reveal gate was NOT missing a hold — Slice E's hold mechanism is
correct and already in place. The hold was measuring the wrong domain:
it opened at a hardcoded 3x3 landblock neighbourhood (~192 m) while the
visible world extends to the fog end (~2,189 m at the shipped High
preset, inside a 2,304 m Far window). An 11.4:1 ratio.
Retail's equivalent ratio is 1:1 BY CONSTRUCTION. `LScape` owns one
`mid_width x mid_width` array of `CLandBlock*` (`LScape::SetMidRadius`
@0x00504C00, `LScape::update_block` @0x005063A0), `mid_radius` is
assigned directly from the user's `Render.LandscapeDrawDistance`
preference (`SmartBox::SetRegion` @0x004531F0; values
`Render_LandscapeDrawDistance_Values` @0x007CA988 = {3,5,8,11,15,25},
default 8 — both byte-verified against the PDB-paired 2013 binary), and
that same square is simultaneously the prefetched set
(`LScape::PreFetchCells` @0x00505660), the drawn set (`block_draw_list`
over the same array), and the set the simulation blocks on
(`CellManager::blocking_for_cells`). There is no retail configuration in
which the client streams farther than it gates, because there is only
one number.
So the fix derives rather than duplicates. Four coupled parts, which is
why this is one commit and not four — D1 without D2 hangs the client and
D2 without D1 is dead code:
D1 `WorldRevealReadinessBarrier` takes a live `Func<StreamingRevealWindow>`
and stops being static: outdoor requires `FarRadius`, indoor still 0
(retail's `CEnvCell::PreFetchCells` @0x0052D1E0 arm). Read per
evaluation, never captured — the radii are runtime mutable through
Settings, and retail's answer to a mid-hold radius change is to reset,
re-radius, and re-arm the blocking prefetch at the NEW value
(`SmartBox::set_mid_radius` @0x00453180). `OutdoorNeighborhoodRadius`
is deleted; there is no constant left to drift.
D2 `StreamingController.IsRenderNeighborhoodResident` becomes tiered,
because acdream's loaded landscape is: inside `NearRadius`,
`IsNearTier && IsRenderReady`; out to `FarRadius`, `IsRenderReady` only.
Without this the fix cannot work at all — nothing outside the Near ring
is ever promoted, so any radius above `NearRadius` was unsatisfiable and
would have held the reveal forever. Proof obligation P1 (a Far-tier
landblock genuinely satisfies `IsRenderReady`) is now a test driven
through the real `PublicationKind.Far` pipeline against a real
`LandblockSpawnAdapter`, not an inference.
D7 `RuntimeWorldTransitState.AcknowledgeDestinationReadiness` re-derived
`indoor ? 0 : 1` and failed `invalid-readiness-shape` on any other
value, so changing the radius alone would have looked like "the fix
hangs the client". It is now a SHAPE invariant (`indoor => 0`,
`outdoor => >= 1`). Runtime does not own the graphical host's streaming
configuration and must not learn it; plumbing App radii into Runtime to
preserve the strict equality is exactly the assert-a-mechanism-that-does-
not-exist failure C5b was built to stop. Both non-graphical producers
keep emitting their centre-ring token and stay legal, annotated in place.
D6 `PhysicsEngine.IsNeighborhoodTerrainResident` rebuilt a full-map
`HashSet` on every call, every frame of every hold. At radius 1 that was
invisible; at radius 12 (625 ring members) it violates Slice I1's
0 B/resolve standard. Now an engine-owned scratch set, cleared in place;
measured at 0 bytes over 1,000 warmed radius-12 queries.
Also: the destination reservation opens at exactly the gate's radius and
reopens on the same generation when the radius changes mid-hold (retail
has one square for both, and no concept of prioritising an inner ring
differently). Composite warmup deliberately stays `NearRadius`-scoped —
the composite domain is entity-scoped and Far builds carry no entities,
so widening it would walk the outer window to warm nothing.
`ACDREAM_PROBE_REVEAL_RADIUS` is a measurement probe in a diagnostic
owner (CLAUDE.md rule 5) so the connected route can be run A/B on one
binary; it is NOT a user-facing prefetch knob, since a low setting would
reintroduce the decoupling this slice exists to close.
Register: AD-2 amended with the derived window, the two-tier split, and
the four new retail anchors. AP-149 FILED for the residual this does not
close — the outer ring accepts terrain-only publication where retail
requires LandBlockInfo and every building EnvCell, so a distant building
can still pop in at Far-ring distances. Do not let a later closeout
claim parity.
Docs: `ACDREAM_STREAM_RADIUS`'s CLAUDE.md description was wrong on every
clause (the default is unset, not 2; it forces `NearRadius`; it is
silently discarded by any Settings save) — corrected, since that is the
file every session reads. `reference_two_tier_streaming.md` corrected in
four ways, including "Far tier = terrain only": Far also publishes
terrain COLLISION, which is precisely what makes this fix viable.
#280's issue text had the right conclusion from a wrong premise (it
names a view-distance setting acdream does not have) — corrected, and
the missing Viewing Distance option filed separately as #326, with #327
(DDD progress readout) and #328 (hardcoded 5000 f far plane vs retail's
byte-verified 4000) filed alongside.
Expect LONGER holds and the "In Portal Space - Please Wait..." cue on
recalls MORE often. That is convergence toward retail, not away from it:
retail emits the byte-identical string for the whole duration of a
blocked prefetch and polls at 5 s intervals. The failure condition is
non-convergence, not duration.
Gates: Release build 0 errors. Complete suite 11,178 passed / 4 skipped
/ 0 failed, against a re-measured 11,142 / 4 / 0 baseline at 9ee9c1a1 —
+36, reconciled exactly as 36 new tests (App +23, Runtime +10, Core +3),
zero deleted, zero newly skipped. Nine discriminating tests
sabotage-verified in both directions. The connected/visual gate is
batched into C5's matrix; its recipe, its three positive artifacts, and
its required recall leg are written into the campaign plan.

Flips the last remote classification (SetPosition: teleport-advanced and
cell-less) onto 4b-1's RuntimeRemotePlacementDriveController, runs retail's
teleport_hook before the placement, and deletes the legacy remote-teleport
machinery. Contract: docs/research/2026-08-04-c4-route-4b-3-contract.md.
Retail: MoveOrTeleport @0x00516330's branch @0x00516386 -> teleport_hook
@0x005163EF -> SetFlags(0x1012) @0x00516414 -> SetPosition @0x00516420 ->
return 1 @0x00516438. The hook @0x00514ED0 runs BEFORE the placement and
regardless of its outcome. Retail places this branch unconditionally, at any
distance and any contact state (arg4 is read only @0x0051638E, after the
branch) — which is what retires AP-137's cell-less enqueue-vs-place delta.
D1 — the classifier's cell-less input is now the PRE-merge committed cell.
Retail's predicate is `this_1->cell == 0`, the BODY's own cell at
MoveOrTeleport entry (this_1 is assigned from this @0x00516334). acdream fed
the POST-merge canonical.FullCellId, which RefreshSnapshot ->
RefreshDerivedState -> SetFullCell has already stamped with the accepted wire
cell; a zero wire cell fails validation into RejectedData first. The shipped
remote cell-less predicate was therefore dead code, not merely different from
remotePlacementRequired. Threaded via a builder overload; route 1's overload
is untouched. The graphical !IsSpatiallyVisible arm of
projectionRequiresTeleportHook is deleted — a presentation predicate with no
retail analogue that fired the teleport machinery on a routine hot path.
Deleted: RemoteTeleportController (605), RemoteTeleportPlacement (85),
RemoteShadowPlacementSynchronizer (49), their 1,709 lines of tests, the
remotePlacementRequired predicate, the TeleportHookRequired plumbing, the
legacy pre-operation ConstrainTo fallback, and the player arm's legacy
!IsGrounded fallback. Net -2,030 lines.
Structural fix (two independent Opus reviews, round 1 FAIL/FAIL): three of the
four MAJORs were one defect — OnPosition carried two parallel inline copies of
the routing tail (player-guid, NPC-guid) that had drifted. Extracted
RunRemoteArmTail (3 call sites) and ApplyWireAirborneLeftoverBookkeeping (2),
both branches now share one implementation.
A1 ToConstraintArm mapped AirborneSnap -> AirborneNoOperation, so the NPC
arm armed ConstrainTo ZERO times for an out-of-contact wire-grounded
creature — a regression this slice introduced while closing a
structurally identical hole. Now maps to NearInterpolate; switch made
total with a throwing default proven unreachable.
R1 D2's write-nothing shape existed on the player arm only; NPC packets
fell through and wrote the body. Retail makes no player/NPC distinction.
R2 report_collision_end(this,1) @0x00514F31 was bound to
ShadowObjects.Suspend, a port of a DIFFERENT retail function
(remove_shadows_from_cells) that teleport_hook never calls. Now routes
to RuntimeCollisionReportingState.LeaveWorld, which wraps the private
ForceEnd in an admission-blocking transaction so a DoCollisionEnd
callback cannot recreate the contact table.
R3/A2 A teleported NPC synthesized ServerVelocity from the teleport distance
(~1,000+ m/s) and planned a run cycle from it. Both the install and
RemoteServerControlledVelocityCycle.Apply now gate on !isTeleportRoute.
BISECT HAZARD — A1's fix is correct only BECAUSE R1 landed. AirborneSnap is
reachable wire-airborne on the NPC arm only while D2's shape is missing there.
Reverting R1 alone silently inverts A1 into the opposite divergence: arming
where retail returns 0. Revert both or neither.
Also in the velocity hunk: the NPC block's two !IsPlayerGuid(update.Guid)
guards were dropped when it was wrapped in `if (!isTeleportRoute)`. Safe — all
five exit paths of the enclosing IsPlayerGuid block return, so the predicate is
unconditionally false below it — but it was unremarked by both reviews.
Register: AP-137 REWRITTEN (not deleted) to the surviving acdream-only
divergences — null classification during the login window and Rejected*
through UnroutedCatchUp keep a row. AD-42's RemoteTeleportController citation
retired; AP-136/AP-138 writer lists corrected to the two surviving non-Position
rebucket writers; AP-138 gains the teleport arm as a second producer of the
visible-without-collision residual (retirement path remains #309). AP-135 is
untouched and its two airborne bookkeeping writes are preserved on both arms.
AP-131 does not retire; #276 does not close.
Proof obligation 1: ParkCollisionResidents' overlap throw stays unreachable —
the teleport arm adds packets to the same TryBeginExclusiveAuthoredPlacement
one-operation-per-key machinery the far arm uses, opens no new operation shape,
and every DeferredCell outcome cancels synchronously with
restoreCancelledPark: true. The guarded property remains
HasOldPrefixPlacementDebt's stall, not a throw (4b-1's B2 caveat stands).
Correction to an earlier claim: LiveEntityPresentationController's
_activePlacementOwners was NOT write-never at HEAD —
remotePlacementRequired -> BeginPlacement -> Begin -> BeginAuthoritativePlacement
was a live writer chain. It becomes write-never BECAUSE this slice deletes that
chain, which is why deleting the dead half is behaviour-preserving.
Probe: ACDREAM_PROBE_REMOTE_TELEPORT=1 emits one [remote-teleport] line per
routed arm (guid, cause, hook-ran, placement status). TEMPORARY, strip with the
probe family.
Carried, disclosed not fixed: no dedicated bidirectional collision-partner test
for R2 (the wiring, not LeaveWorld itself, is what lacks coverage); the
stress test's teleport step drives hand-written field assignments rather than
the canonical arm; the per-packet runTeleportHook closure allocation (network
path, not the resolve path Slice I's 0 B discipline governs — file before
route 5 adds a fourth call site). B2: IRuntimeCollisionReportObserver has zero
production implementations, so retail's bidirectional DoCollisionEnd half still
reaches no gameplay consumer — this fix closes the wrong-function binding, not
that nobody listens.
Complete Release suite MEASURED at 11,013 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed
(baseline 11,027/4/0; net -14 = ~33 deleted test cases against ~19 added).
Neither known flake fired (#302 PortalProjectionTests GC-allocation, #308
NakEmissionTests wall-clock).
STILL OWED: the two-client connected gate, which MUST use an NPC/creature
teleport target. Both round-1 MAJORs lived on the NPC arm and the velocity
cycle early-returns for 0x50xxxxxx guids, so a player target structurally
cannot observe A1, A2, or R3.

Selecting a PKLite player and attacking did nothing: with auto-target on it
retargeted to the nearest monster, with auto-target off it logged
"combat: attack ignored; no creature target found". Spells on the same target
worked, which was the clue.
Root cause: CombatTargetPolicy.IsHostileMonster:31-33 rejects any candidate
carrying BfPlayer BEFORE reaching ObjectIsAttackable, so the both-PKLite pool
match at SelectedObjectHealthPolicy.cs:70-71 was unreachable for players. Melee
and missile targeting never supported player targets at all — the gate is named
IsHostileMonster and does exactly what it says. Nobody could hit it until
69ba9486 made PK Lite reachable.
Retail uses ONE predicate for monsters and players, with no player exclusion:
ClientCombatSystem::ExecuteAttack @0x0056BB70 gates unconditionally on
ObjectIsAttackable @0x0056A600 (creature type, Free-PK short-circuit on either
side, then IsPlayer -> bothPK || bothPKLite, else BF_ATTACKABLE with pets
excluded). acdream already ported that predicate verbatim; it was simply
unreachable.
The fix SPLITS the two concerns rather than relaxing the shared predicate:
explicit-target admission routes through ObjectIsAttackable, while auto-target
ACQUISITION keeps the monster-only gate. That is required by register row
IA-19 — explicit product direction that Auto Target must never select NPCs,
players or pets. IA-19 is not overridden here; its own justification promises
"manual player-selection commands remain available", and that promise was never
implemented, so this makes the row true. Review confirmed no path lets
auto-acquisition select a player: every automatic Select is fed by a
FindClosest* filtered through IsHostileMonster.
Review also found a second site with the same bug, which the first pass froze in
place on my instruction: retail gates combat-camera tracking on the SAME
predicate as the attack. ClientCombatSystem::UpdateTargetTracking @0x0056A950
reads GetAttackTarget() then gates CameraSet::TrackTarget on ObjectIsAttackable.
Ours used the monster-only gate, so with ViewCombatTarget on by default the
attack would land while the camera refused to track the opponent — user-visible
in exactly the duel this fix enables. GetCombatCameraTargetPoint now uses the
wide predicate. IA-19 does not reach the camera: it performs no acquisition,
only presentation on an already-chosen target. The first pass had added a
source comment asserting IA-19 covered it; that comment and the matching text in
docs/ISSUES.md are corrected, since a wrong citation is how a real divergence
becomes invisible.
Depends on 9b1e6fc6 (#297): the both-PKLite arm needs the LOCAL player's own bit
to be live. Review confirmed both admission sites read ClientObjectTable on every
call, so this is not inert in production.
Newly reachable and now pinned: ObjectIsAttackable's pet-exclusion arm, which
CombatTargetPolicy rejected before it could ever run.
Follow-ups filed: #304 (SelectionInteractionController.GetSelectedOrClosestCombatTarget
has no production caller — one of the two widened call sites is dead code),
#305 (HeadlessGameplayOperations has the identical pre-existing bug, so the
graphical/headless hosts now diverge).
Gates: complete Release solution 10,904 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (baseline
10,900). Adversarial + retail-conformance review PASS after one FAIL round; the
predicate was re-verified branch-for-branch against 0x0056A600 since it goes
live here for the first time. Camera fix discrimination-verified by revert.
Connected acceptance NOT run — needs a live two-client PKLite session.

Campaign P remaining-physics-divergence, placement cutover slice C3c
(docs/plans/2026-08-02-placement-cutover.md). Both production hosts now
register every initial Create through the residence + continuation-
executor + first-entry-conductor machinery (C0-C3b):
- Graphical (route 1): RegisterEntityWithInitialResidence at Create; the
shared RuntimeFirstEntryDriveController pumps both conductors from the
placement-receipt flow; MaterializeProjection and RebucketLiveEntity
are presentation-only while a residence is ACTIVE (ExecutorCompleted is
the presentation-binding receipt); post-residence entities take the
full legacy path including the prepare_to_enter_world clock edges.
PlayerModeController attaches presentation to the Runtime-published
controller; its legacy resolve/step-heights/host-construction path is
deleted; presentation-only rollback (retail has no entry-flow rollback).
- Headless (route 8): OnSpawned registers with residence when a drive
exists; content-less sessions keep the pre-flip direct registration;
SynchronizeLocalPlayer/CreateController/ApplySetupStepHeights deleted;
prepared-collision read failure is a typed AwaitingCollisionSource
retry; far remotes outside the service window complete celless.
- RuntimeLocalPlayerMovementState.Controller setter sealed internal; all
controller mutation flows through the publication lifecycle.
Fix slices landed within this cutover, each dual-gated:
- F1: live movement-stat/server-physics application routed through the
Runtime ownership seam (post-logout ingest crash on the retired
controller eliminated; RuntimeMovementSkillProjection deleted).
- F2: login activation wedge - collision-admission prefix gate factored
out of the seal (reentrant-commit RejectedAuthority), rearm generation
identity corrected, PlayerModeAutoEntry requires the Runtime-published
controller (world reveal can no longer seal unmaterialized).
- F3: landblock-prefix 0-sentinel replaced by explicit absent-id guards;
map-corner landblocks (grid row/col 0) fully legal through admission,
park/rearm/retire, quiescence, and outdoor shadow seeds.
- F5: local-player first-entry ground contact seeded by the shared
SpawnPlacementSettler (moved App->Core) at FinalizeActivation - the
retail first-gravity-frame touch (enter_world 0x00516170 carries no
seed); the legacy unconditional force-seed is overwritten by a real
floor-found contact; airborne spawns stay airborne; outbound contact
bit verified end-to-end. Fixes the standing-cast 'You can't do that
while in the air!' rejections.
- R1 (dual-review round): login constraint leash armed at the committed
placement (HandleReceivedPosition 0x00453FD0 analog); register rows
AD-61 (settle-timing compression now covering the local player) and
AD-42 (repointed off the deleted resolve split) in this commit;
residence-conversion owner API; wire-landblock guards; drive-pending
ledger in IsConverged; route attach/detach latch; executor-drain drift
model documented + source-pinned.
Gates: Runtime 1,003, App 4,039/3 skips, Headless 79, complete solution
10,816/0 failed/4 skips (Release, -m:1); connected lifecycle/reconnect
gate PASS (logs/connected-world-gate-20260802-175401; graceful exits,
world-visible, zero airborne rejections). The nine-stop soak remains red
for the pre-existing 6b28ff99 whole-world collision-clone throughput
regression (attributed with evidence; scheduled as its own slice before
C5). Dual Opus reviews (retail-conformance + adversarial): delta PASS.

Slice 4 made a remote character's wielded weapon selectable, which made the
pickup chain reachable end to end for the first time: SelectionPickUp on
another player's weapon captured identity, passed ValidatePickupTarget (which
checked only the Stuck flag and the small-item mask, and a MeleeWeapon clears
both), installed a real non-autonomous approach through
PlayerInteractionMovementSink, and then sent a pickup request the server
rejects. Retail does none of that.
ItemHolder::AttemptToPlaceInContainer @ 0x00588140 runs
AttemptToPlaceInContainer_IsItemLegal @ 0x005870C0 first, at 0x00588173 --
ahead of container legality, auto-merge, the container walk, and the only
CM_Inventory::Event_PutItemInContainer emitter
(ACCWeenieObject::UIAttemptPutInContainer @ 0x0058D680). IsItemLegal's arm at
0x005872B7 rejects `!ACCWeenieObject::IsOwnedByPlayer(item) &&
item->pwd._location != 0` with one local
ECM_UI::SendNotice_DisplayStringInfo(0x1a, ...), and
CPlayerSystem::PlaceInBackpack @ 0x0055D8C0 then withdraws the waiting slot it
had published (SetWaitingState(obj, 0) + SendNotice_EndPendingInPlayer at
0x0055D918). No request, no movement. acdream had never ported that arm; it
was harmless while wielded children were unpickable and stopped being harmless
at f6db964f.
The notice is data_7e2228, "The %s is being wielded by someone else!" -- WITH
the exclamation mark. IsItemLegal's six strings occupy one contiguous literal
block, 0x007e21f0 through 0x007e234c, one per arm in reverse code order, and
the two neighbours already ported here (0x007e227c "The %s cannot be picked
up!" at 0x00587264, 0x007e22b4 "You cannot pick up creatures!" at 0x005871f4)
pin it. The punctuation-free 0x007cd350 variant belongs to the wield/wear
block and is emitted from a different function at 0x00560aef.
pwd._location is the PublicWeenieDesc CurrentWieldedLocation field
(acclient.h:37175), which acdream projects as
ClientObject.CurrentlyEquippedLocation, and ACCWeenieObject::IsOwnedByPlayer
@ 0x0058D160 is IsOwnedByObject(this, player_id) -- already ported as
ClientObjectTable.IsOwnedByObject @ 0x0058CEB0 and reached here through the
existing ItemInteractionController.IsOwnedByPlayer. The arm reads pwd._location
verbatim rather than adding a WielderId belt-and-braces test, because retail's
predicate is the thing being ported.
The player's OWN wielded item is IsOwnedByPlayer, so retail passes it and takes
a different route. ACCWeenieObject::DeterminePositionState @ 0x0058BE70 gives
it PositionState.WIELDED (acclient.h:6802) rather than IN_3D_VIEW, and
UIAttemptPutInContainer records IR_PICK_UP only for IN_3D_VIEW, treating
WIELDED and IN_CONTAINER alike as a plain IR_PUT_IN_CONTAINER transfer. So an
own-wielded item is unwielded in place: the request goes out immediately with
no approach, joining the existing current-ground-object shortcut. The shortcut
carries an ownership conjunct so it can never outrun the 0x005872B7 gate.
TryGetApproach now refuses attached children outright, for the same
IN_3D_VIEW reason. An Attached projection's bookkeeping WorldEntity.Position
carries the PARENT's composed root (EquippedChildRenderController
.ApplyParentWorldPose), not the child frame CPhysicsObj::UpdateChild @
0x00512D50 composes, so an approach built from it walked toward the wielder.
Slice 4 de-parented the marker anchor but left this one parent-derived; no
approach can anchor on a wielder now.
The pick predicates are deliberately untouched. Picking, selecting, examining,
lighting-pulse identity, and the vivid-marker anchor on a remote's wielded
weapon all behave exactly as Slice 4 shipped them -- retail's sr_Select and
sr_Examine branches of RecvNotice_SmartBoxObjectFound @ 0x004E5AD0 never
consult IsItemLegal. The gate is the transaction, not the pick.
f6db964f's message asserted the slice introduced no deviation and owed no
retail-divergence-register row. That was wrong: the unported 0x005872B7 arm
was a deviation it made reachable. This commit ports the arm in full, matches
retail on the own-wielded path, and removes the parent-derived approach
anchor, so the record is corrected here and no register row is owed.

A click on a remote character's wielded weapon reported nothing. The picker
was already correct: RetailSelectionScene publishes every drawn part under its
own live-entity server GUID and RetailWorldPicker returns the weapon as the
polygon winner. The failure was downstream eligibility - WorldSelectionQuery
required TryGetInteractionEligibleRecord, whose _visible set admits
LiveEntityProjectionKind.World only, so the winning hit was discarded.
Retail has no such gate. Render::GfxObjUnderSelectionRay @ 0x0054C740
accumulates each hit under the drawn part's own physics-object id
(CPhysicsPart::get_physobj_id @ 0x0050D490), and CPhysicsPart::Draw @
0x0050D7A0 admits any drawn part whose physobj id is nonzero. An equipped item
is a first-class CPhysicsObj with its own id and part array
(CPhysicsObj::add_child @ 0x0050F870 via CSetup::GetHoldingLocation @
0x005213F0). There is no parent redirection and no wielded-specific rule, so a
click on a wielded weapon returns THE WEAPON'S GUID. PositionState.WIELDED is
distinct from IN_CONTAINER (acclient.h:6802), so container suppression never
hid a wielded selection either.
LiveEntityRuntime gains two scoped predicates: TryGetAttachedProjectedRecord
(a current Attached projection that is spatially projected) and
TryGetPickEligibleRecord (that arm plus today's World visible-set arm, with
the same WorldEntity.Id staleness recheck). TryGetInteractionEligibleRecord
and the _visible set are deliberately NOT widened - they feed radar,
auto-target, sticky/MoveTo establishment, and CombatAttackTargetSource, and
retail's radar has no wielded blips. A regression test asserts an attached
child stays out of that set while picking admits it.
Marker anchoring had the twin problem. SmartBox::GetObjectBoundingBox @
0x00452E20 pushes the picked object's OWN m_position - which for a child is
the frame CPhysicsObj::UpdateChild @ 0x00512D50 recomposes each tick as
Frame::combine(parent part frame, holding frame) - and
CPartArray::GetSelectionSphere @ 0x00518B80 scales the authored sphere by that
object's own part-array scale. acdream stores the PARENT's root in the child
projection's Position/Rotation because the child's MeshRefs are
parent-relative, which put the vivid brackets at the wielder's feet. The
composed child root is already published per frame to EntityEffectPoseRegistry
by EquippedChildRenderController.PublishChildPose, so selection now borrows it
through an injected Func<uint, Matrix4x4?> wired in LivePresentationComposition
beside the existing selection-sphere hook. There is no parent fallback: a child
with no published composed root has no live frame this tick and no sphere. Its
part-array scale comes from the spawn record, the same source
EquippedChildRenderController.TryRealize reads, because an Attached WorldEntity
carries the parent-derived pose rather than its own ObjScale.
The sr_Use branch of RecvNotice_SmartBoxObjectFound @ 0x004E5AD0 guards
ItemHolder::UseObject with `found->pwd._wielderID != SmartBox::player_id` at
0x004E5BE9 while still selecting and flashing. Equipped-child picking makes
that click reachable, so the gate ships with it as
IWorldSelectionQuery.IsWieldedByPlayer.
CPhysicsObj::SetLighting @ 0x00511A80 is non-recursive, so the pulse lights the
clicked object's own part array only - clicking a weapon never flashes its
wielder. That follows from routing the pulse identity through the same
predicate.
RetailWorldPicker, RetailSelectionScene, WbDrawDispatcher, and
EquippedChildRenderController are untouched, as are all wire and physics paths.
The slice REMOVES an undocumented deviation (Attached projections excluded
from pick eligibility versus retail's part-id pick) and introduces none, so no
retail-divergence-register row is owed in either direction.
