Co-Authored-By: Codex <codex@openai.com>
Port global toolbar use/select/create actions, migrate the collapsed Ctrl-number bindings, and route them through a focused retained-UI controller. Preserve shortcut aliases as aliases across inventory and paperdoll drops with retail's neutral/accept/reject drag states, preventing physical item moves such as unwielding an equipped helmet.
Co-Authored-By: Codex <codex@openai.com>
Port every reachable ClientUISystem cursor branch through the production DAT enum map, preserve global-default versus widget-local event ordering, and surface the registered OS fallback. Route all four toolbar stance indicators through the same combat toggle command as the key binding, with golden DAT and transition conformance coverage.
Co-Authored-By: Codex <codex@openai.com>
Route ACE server commands through the existing chat path, bind the retail paperdoll hit mask instead of its obscured viewport, and prefer authoritative private health vitals. Record the user-confirmed live gate and pin the production DAT widget type in tests.
Live capture #3 (cp-write + entity-source + full bsp-test object map) disproved
v1's grounding-retention theory and pinned the real bug: GameWindow.cs:7951
partId = entity.Id*256+partIndex OVERFLOWS uint32 for class-prefixed landblock
ids (0x40/0x80/0xC0), dropping the prefix byte so different-class entities sharing
the low 24 bits collide on one shadow part-id; Register deregisters the loser
(last-writer-wins), silently deleting collision geometry while render shows every
step. Landblock 0xF682 has 23 such collisions incl. the stair runs. The player
floats into the collision hole and the PrecipiceSlide wedge fires = the invisible
wall (a faithful symptom). Fix = Option A: RegisterMultiPart per entity (unique
32-bit entity.Id, retail add_shadows_to_cells/AddPartsShadow model), unifying on
the one faithful multi-part path and deleting both synthetic-id schemes.

Inline-execution plan (frozen collision internals): dat-backed seam replay as the
red pin, empirical pinning of the forward-move contact-plane loss, the localized
retail-faithful grounding-retention fix (candidate tree keyed to the pin), #137
regression net, register/digest/ISSUES bookkeeping, live gate.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Root cause confirmed (decomp cross-check wf_3c1120c4-a04 + live apparatus): the
outdoor stairs are a continuous coplanar 38.7-degree ramp of stacked step-box
objects; at a seam the grounded forward move loses contact_plane_valid, the
step-down recovery can't reach the coplanar (at-level) continuation, and
EdgeSlide/PrecipiceSlide fabricates a horizontal (0,1,0) sliding normal that
absorbs the up-stairs motion (the #137/TS-4 family). Fabrication math, the
SetSlidingNormal Z-zero, and the multi-object search are all verified faithful;
the divergence is upstream (retail keeps contact_plane_valid, pc 273244).
Approach A: restore retail's grounded forward-move retention so the fragile
step-down recovery isn't needed at seams. Exact retention-loss line pinned by a
dat-backed replay test (the #137 method), not guessed. Alternatives B/C recorded.

The crowd-tightness residual from the #182 gate: monsters overlap (arms) in acdream but
barely in retail on the SAME ACE. Verified root (workflow wf_d2ff782f-9cb + source): retail
runs UpdateObjectInternal+transition on EVERY remote creature (CPhysics::UseTime 0x00509950,
no fork) so they de-overlap client-side, with the server pos a gentle MoveOrTeleport catch-up
target (0x00516330), NOT a hard-snap. acdream (a) hard-snaps NPC remotes to the raw overlapping
server pos (GameWindow.cs:5925) overwriting the swept de-penetration, and (b) forks player-remotes
(skip sweep) from NPCs (sweep at :10558 but driven by get_state_velocity, not the catch-up).
Collision math already exists + is faithful; the fix is the reconciliation (hard-snap→catch-up)
+ the movement model (synth-velocity→interp catch-up) — a delicate rework of the frozen R4/R5
remote-DR arc, staged NPC-first. Design spec + full handoff (verified code sites, retail anchors,
preserve-list, gotchas, slices) written for a fresh session. Implementation NOT started.

Slice 0 of the #182 verbatim rebuild. The classifier reproduces the design
baseline off acdream-crowd-resolve.jsonl (2883 move-intent resolves:
52.8% OK / 25.1% partial / 22.1% stuck / 107 airborne-stuck) — the A/B
'before' the rebuild measures against (retail target ~78% OK, 0 airborne-stuck).
The plan refines the design spec's §7: the airborne-stuck bleed is the
frames_stationary_fall counter (validate_transition increments; handle_all_collisions
zeros velocity at fsf>1), NOT the cached_velocity field (a separate reporting value).
Slices reorder accordingly; calc_friction (retail 0.25 vs acdream 0.0) is an
orthogonal L.3c divergence kept out of scope.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The #182 CSphere port (96ae2740) failed its visual gate and introduced an
airborne "stuck in the falling animation" regression. A player-attributed retail
cdb trace (tools/cdb/retail-crowd-jump3.cdb) proved retail's LOCAL client fully
runs player-vs-creature collision (76 land_on_sphere, 188 COLLIDED, 130 SLID,
~78% OK, glides across) -- NOT server-authoritative (an earlier unfiltered
land_on_sphere=0 read was a false lead the attributed trace refuted).
acdream's same-repro capture: 50.9% OK, 22.4% stuck, 115 airborne-stuck. Root
divergence: retail CPhysicsObj::UpdateObjectInternal (0x005156b0, pc:283688) sets
cached_velocity = (resolved - old)/dt -- velocity from ACTUAL movement, so a
blocked jump collapses to ~0 -> gravity -> the player falls/glides. acdream
integrates velocity + reflects on collision (PlayerMovementController ~:1008-1069),
so the jump velocity (~18) persists against the creature -> hang.
Fix = verbatim rebuild of the per-frame player-physics loop (UpdateObjectInternal
chain), velocity model first, transition internals kept. Full design +
retail function inventory + the capture apparatus + retail target numbers:
docs/superpowers/specs/2026-07-07-player-physics-update-verbatim-rebuild-design.md.
Implementation deferred to a fresh session (user decision). Also files #183
(floating distant scenery, observed during testing). #182 stays as the base.

User goal clarified: the wildly fluctuating FPS/ms IS the target. Root cause is per-frame throwaway allocations triggering periodic gen2 GC pauses = the spikes. Plan takes only the easy, bit-identical, non-faithfulness-sensitive buffer-reuse sites from the 54-site audit (animation pose buffers, particle draw-lists/iterator, interior partition, trivial per-frame HashSets); defers the two risky sites (EnvCell settled-camera gate, physics Transition pooling). Gate = the existing frame profiler before/after (alloc_kb down, cpu_ms max/p99 tighten) + identical visuals. Loading/pak work parked.

Full-bake gate baked all 729,888 EnvCells as separate fileId-keyed blobs = 865 GB pak in 52 min, 97 pct near-duplicate cell geometry. The prior 'v1-acceptable duplication' call was wrong by ~100x. Bake-time dedup (compute geomId, extract each unique geometry once, alias all sharing cell-fileIds to one blob offset) is now a v1 requirement; needs no format or reader change and collapses size AND bake time together. MP1b not shipped until the dedup slice lands.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
MP1b review finding, verified against EnvCellRenderer.GetEnvCellGeomId:
runtime dedups interior geometry under a 64-bit content hash (bit 33),
not the cell fileId the pak keys by. MP1c maps at the RegisterCell seam
(read pak[cellFileId], register under geomId, dedup post-load as today);
duplicate blob content on disk is v1-acceptable. GeomId-keyed baking is
not viable in format v1 (hash exceeds PakKey's 56 usable bits).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Normative v1 format (ACPK header with dat-iteration stamps, sorted
24-byte TOC entries with crc32, 64-byte-aligned uncompressed blobs,
deterministic ObjectMeshData serialization), the bake CLI that drives
MP1a MeshExtractor in parallel, the mmap zero-copy PakReader, and a
dat-gated live-vs-pak equivalence suite. Scope-fenced to the
ObjectMeshData asset classes (the decode-storm content from the MP0
baseline); terrain/BSP/scenery/degrade blobs are later slices. Also
amends the spec: PakReader lives in AcDream.Content (Content->Core
direction from MP1a makes a Core home circular).

MP1a ground truth: the runtime atlas consumes decoded RGBA8 via
TextureBatchData, so baking to BC7/BC1 (lossy) would change delivered
pixels and contradict the phase's own byte-identical conformance gate.
V1 stores RGBA8 exactly as the runtime produces; BC becomes an explicit
post-conformance option with its own visual gate. Mip chains stay
runtime-generated in v1.

Mechanical-move plan: lift TextureKey out of the GL atlas class, move the
ObjectMeshData family, extract the Prepare* CPU pipeline verbatim into a
new MeshExtractor in AcDream.Content (net10.0, no Silk.NET), App keeps
queue/worker/upload lifecycle and delegates. Binding rules: verbatim
bodies (no SurfaceDecoder switch - byte-identity is MP1b conformance
foundation), compiler enumerates dependencies, BLOCKED on any hidden GL
dependency, zero divergence rows. Gates: full suite green per task +
user launch smoke. Boundary facts verified against source this session:
the Prepare* region touches GL only via the TextureKey struct; first GL
call is UploadGfxObjMeshData.

Full-route capture (Holtburg -> dungeon 0x0007 -> town 0xCE94 -> dungeon
-> Holtburg, 4 teleports) plus the supplemental town run. Verdict: the
render-side-CPU split is confirmed (GPU <= ~2.7ms, upd/upl/imgui ~= 0),
steady medians beat the spec assumption (worst town p50 3.6ms), and the
smoothness gap is GC: 1.5-3 MB allocated per frame drives gen2
collections 1-2/s and every town p99/max violation, while dungeon
windows (zero gen1/gen2) are spike-free at ~2000 fps. Teleport hitch
quantified at 211ms worst frame / 75.7MB single-frame allocation.
Gate decision: PROCEED to MP1 unchanged, with one recorded amendment -
a bounded post-MP1 allocation-triage session for churn sites outside
the MP3 rewrite surface. Fort Tethana axiom view still to be
re-measured at the MP2/MP3 gates.
MP0 complete: profiler shipped (7d74c68c..4b44a152) + baseline + gate.

Five bite-sized tasks: FrameStatsBuffer (TDD), FrameProfEnabled flag +
GpuFrameTimer TimeElapsed ring, FrameProfiler facade (TDD on the report
formatter), GameWindow wiring (one boundary call + three stage scopes)
with DebugPanel mirror, and the user-driven baseline capture that gates
MP1. Records two spec deviations: GPU per-stage timestamps deferred
(frame is CPU-bound at ~0.5ms GPU), and the toggle lives in
RenderingDiagnostics per the diagnostic-owner rule, not RuntimeOptions.
Encodes the discovered GL constraint: whole-frame TimeElapsed is
mutually exclusive with ACDREAM_WB_DIAG per-pass queries.

Umbrella design for the user-commissioned performance side track:
MP0 honest frame profiler -> MP1 baked asset pak (acdream-bake CLI,
mmap zero-copy reader) -> MP2 retail distance-degrade (hide-only cut)
-> MP3 Arch ECS render world + delta submission -> MP4 zero-alloc +
flat physics data (queued behind M1.5 #137) -> MP5 jobs (stretch,
evidence-gated).
Decisions recorded: C# not Rust (bottleneck is architectural, not
language); ECS scoped to the render world only (simulation keeps its
retail-mirroring OO structure); Arch framework per user choice; bake
as CLI now, client auto-detect later; smoothness gated before the
300+ FPS throughput target. Every phase has a numeric + visual gate;
legacy paths delete at each gate (no lingering dual pipelines).

Ports the three retail outbound-movement packers verbatim (decomp-derived
golden bytes, confirmed via the Ghidra bridge, cross-checked vs holtburger):
- D1 — RawMotionState::Pack (0x0051ed10): new AcDream.Core.Physics.RawMotionState
data type (11 fields + actions, retail defaults) + RawMotionStatePacker that
sets a flag bit only when the field DIFFERS from its default. MoveToState.Build
now takes a RawMotionState instead of presence-based nullable params, so the
over-sent forwardSpeed=1.0 / currentHoldKey=None / default per-axis holdkeys are
no longer emitted. num_actions packs into bits 11-15 (not "bits 11-31").
- D3 — MoveToStatePack::Pack (0x005168f0) trailing byte =
(standingLongjump ? 0x02 : 0) | (contact ? 0x01 : 0); explicit contact/
standingLongjump params (standingLongjump=false honestly until the feature lands).
- D4 — JumpAction rewritten to retail JumpPack::Pack (0x00516d10): extent,
velocity, full Position, four u16 timestamps, align. Removed the spurious
objectGuid/spellId u32s; Position is now packed (it was absent). Body 56 bytes.
- Position::Pack (0x005a9640) / Frame::Pack (0x00535130) verified already-correct
(cellId, origin xyz, quaternion wxyz); locked with a golden test, no change.
GameWindow callers adapted minimally: build the RawMotionState from the existing
MovementResult values (behavior preserved except the intended D1 omissions) and
pass cellId/position/rotation to the Jump send. Pre-existing MotionInterpreter
placeholder struct RawMotionState renamed LegacyRawMotionState (D6/Phase-2 scope,
pure rename) to free the name for the retail-faithful type.
D5 audit: confirmed a real divergence — retail SendMovementEvent (0x006b4680)
stamps only last_sent_position_time after an MTS while SendPositionEvent
(0x006b4770) stamps all three; acdream's NotePositionSent stamps all three on
both paths. Left unchanged (comments added at both call sites), recorded as
register TS-33, deferred to a dedicated cadence-port slice.
Tests: RawMotionStatePackTests / MoveToStateGoldenTests / JumpActionTests /
PositionPackTests + updated MoveToStateTests / AutonomousPositionTests. Full
suite green (Core.Net.Tests 372, full solution 3228 passed / 4 pre-existing skips).
Register: TS-24/TS-25 refreshed (packer now supports actions/style; runtime
emission still deferred), TS-33 added. Roadmap L.2b shipped note added.
