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).

Retail routes on-screen refusals ("You can't jump while in the air",
"You are too encumbered to carry that!") through a SEPARATE transient
screen surface (gmSpewBoxUI, ClientSystem::AddTextToScroll @0x00563C50)
that never touches the chat scroll — type 0x1A is exactly the bit every
ChatInterface window's default filter excludes
(ChatInterface::ChatInterface @0x004F4550). acdream had no such split:
every WeenieError rendered in chat at a single stand-in LogTextType
0x00 (CH1-era approximation, register AP-176), and locally-detected
jump refusals were silently discarded.
This slice ports the full mechanism per
docs/research/2026-08-09-chat-retail-interface-text.md:
CORE (AcDream.Core/Chat):
- WeenieErrorMessages.Resolve now returns (text, RetailLogTextType) from
a 338-row transcription of ClientCommunicationSystem::HandleFailureEvent
@0x00571990 (Appendix A's 339 cases minus one, 0x4F8, deliberately
excluded — its case body is a tangled decompiler artifact, not
resolvable with confidence). Spot-checked ~20 rows directly against
the raw decomp (case 0x2b/0x36/0x3a/0x4e/0x4ec/0x4f3/0x4f4 and the
jump family), beyond the ~10 the brief asked for, because the first
pass surfaced two transcription classes the research doc's markdown
silently ate: (1) 7 ids marked "shared string global" resolved by
reading the case bodies directly (0x24/0x48/0x49 reuse the jump-
refusal globals; 0x4DE/0x4DF/0x55A/0x55E are pure param passthrough);
(2) 19 "arg3 + literal" CONCATENATION ids whose leading space (and
therefore their %s marker) the markdown table's cell-trimming ate —
fixed by re-reading each case body, several requiring a SECOND
non-truncated data_XXXXXXXX dump elsewhere in the same oracle file to
recover text the ~33-char inline preview cut off. One retail typo is
preserved verbatim: 0x4F4's second placeholder is literal "$s", not
"%s" — only the first substitutes.
- ClientTextRefusals: the 11 process-lifetime string globals, all
byte-recovered from the PDB-paired C:\Users\erikn\Downloads\acclient.exe
(MATCH verified via check_exe_pdb.py) via raw UTF-16LE prefix search —
5 were truncated in the research doc's own transcription and all 5
turned out to end "...combat mode"/"...this position", not the
shorter "...combat" a truncated read would suggest.
- SpewBoxState: the gmSpewBoxUI pending/visible queue port (insert-at-0,
dedupe-against-index-0-only, MaxConcurrentItems overflow, per-entry
expiry, one-frame enqueue/drain decoupling). Placed in Core (not
Runtime as the brief's default) because AcDream.UI.Abstractions
references Core but not Runtime, and SpewBoxVM needs to wrap it
directly — the same constraint ChatVM already satisfies against
ChatLog.
- Folded the 4-entry WeenieErrorText.cs into the full table; deleted it.
RUNTIME (AcDream.Runtime):
- RuntimeCommunicationState.AddText(text, type, windowId): the
AddTextToScroll chokepoint. type == ClientLocal -> SpewBox only, never
chat; everything else -> the existing transcript, tagged with type.
- GameEventWiring gains an `onInterfaceText` delegate hole (Core.Net
cannot reference Runtime, so this follows the file's own established
pattern for every other Runtime-owned sink). Rewires 0x028A/0x028B/
UseDone through the full table + router; fixes 0x02EB
CommunicationTransientString's routing type from a CH1-era 0x00
guess to retail's hardcoded ClientLocal (Handle_Communication__
TransientString @0x0057D460).
- LiveSessionEventRouter's 0xF7E0 ServerMessage handler now routes
through AddText with the wire chatType verbatim instead of always
writing ChatLog directly.
- PlayerMovementController gains OnInterfaceText, applied by
RuntimeLocalPlayerMovementState to every controller it installs.
Reports ChargeJump/jump refusals exactly as ClientCombatSystem::
CommenceJump @0x0056AF90 / DoJump @0x0056B110 do — confirmed via
their compiled dispatch that ONLY 0x24/0x48/0x49 produce text;
0x47 (GeneralMovementFailure, fully-constrained/no-stamina) and any
other code are retail-SILENT (DoJump's jump table has exactly 4 real
targets), which contradicts this task's brief ("0x47 -> the
constrained/stamina row per §4.2") — the brief's reading of §4.2
described what jump_is_allowed COMPUTES, not what CommenceJump/DoJump
DISPLAY for it. Implemented the decomp-verified silent behavior.
APP (AcDream.App / AcDream.UI.Abstractions):
- The 5 composition sites that already used RetailLogTextType.ClientLocal
now call Communication.AddText instead of Chat.OnSystemMessage
directly, so they reach the SpewBox instead of the transcript.
- SpewBoxVM (UI.Abstractions) + SpewBoxController (App), modeled
directly on PortalWaitNoticeController. Position/font/colour/
MaxConcurrentItems are placeholders: SpewBoxLayoutDumpDiagnostic
exhaustively swept the installed client_portal.dat's entire LayoutDesc
id range (0x21000000-0x21000075, 101/118 ids populated, sanity-checked
against 3 known ids) and found ZERO elements of class 0x10000016 —
gmSpewBoxUI is mounted from C++ code, not any authored LayoutDesc, so
the dump cannot recover these values.
REGISTER: AP-176 retired (its WeenieError half is now the full table
port); its OnCombatLine half was never in this slice's scope and is
split out to AP-179 so that divergence keeps a row. AP-177 (invented
line lifetime) and AP-178 (invented position/font/colour/max-items)
filed for the presentation placeholders above. AP-175 (PopUpString ->
chat instead of modal) is untouched, not duplicated.
Suite: 11,890 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (was 11,835/4/0; +55 net
new tests, 0 regressions).

Retail colors chat lines by the 34-value wire LogTextType (ACE's
ChatMessageType), NOT by acdream's synthetic 9-value ChatKind. The old
ChatWindowController.RetailChatColor(ChatKind) collapsed distinct retail
colors onto one bucket per ChatKind — e.g. every Channel line rendered
colorLightBlue (Magic's slot) when retail's actual palette spans five
different colors across the Turbine rooms and legacy allegiance family.
Ports ChatInterface::BuildChatColorLookupTable @0x004F31C0 verbatim
(RetailChatColorTable, all 34 RGBA floats read from the PDB-paired
binary's .data section) and threads a new ChatEntry.LogTextType field
through every ingestion site to the correct retail wire value:
HearSpeech/Tell pass the wire chatType through verbatim; Emote/SoulEmote
hard-code 0x0C; the Tell self-echo hard-codes 0x04; legacy ChatChannel
broadcasts derive their type from the channel bit via the new
LegacyChannelChatType helper (ported from the decompiled
Handle_Communication__ChannelBroadcast dispatch, hear vs. own-send);
TurbineChat rooms map through TurbineChatDisplayNames.LogTextType;
CombatChatTranslator's hit/miss/evade lines map to ACE's CombatSelf/
CombatEnemy per Player_Combat.cs; kill/death lines use retail's
decompiled 0x00 Default (not a combat color). ChatWindowController's
transcript now folds LogTextType through RetailChatColorTable with
retail's exact "out-of-range keeps the previous line's color" carry
rule; ChatPanel's combat highlighting sources the same table.
Corrects HearSpeech.cs's doc-comment ChatType legend (4 of 6 entries
were wrong). Adds register row AP-175 for the pre-existing (unchanged)
Popup-renders-in-chat divergence and updates AP-39's stale per-ChatKind
description. Narrows ISSUES #139 — its chat-colors half is done.
Retail renders no chat timestamp prefix path exists in acdream today,
so the "timestamp is always colorGrey 0x0C" rule has nothing to attach
to; noted here per the research doc rather than left silent.

acdream never parsed retail's Sound event, so every server-driven cue was
silent: melee hits and wounds, wield/unwield, pickup/drop, lockpicking,
lifestone bind, spell resist, trap triggers, item mana depletion.
SoundEvent parses the 16-byte message (guid, SoundType, f32 volume) whose
layout three oracles agree on: retail CM_Physics::DispatchSB_SoundEvent
@0x006AC760 reading buf+4/+8/+0xC, ACE's GameMessageSound at declared
length 16, and holtburger's PlaySoundData.
Playback reuses EntityEffectController's existing per-guid queue rather
than adding a second one, because retail routes sounds through the SAME
CObjectMaint blob queue as F754/F755: an event for a guid the client does
not know yet is parked and drained by HandleCreateObject, so a creature
that spawns and immediately grunts still grunts. Dropping it — the
obvious alternative — would silently lose the cue. Sound joins Direct and
Typed as a third PendingEffect kind so one readiness edge releases the
whole mixed stream in order.
AudioHookSink.PlayServerSound reproduces two decoded asymmetries with the
animation-hook path: the sound plays at the WIRE volume and the
SoundTable entry's volume is ignored (the hook path does the opposite),
while the entry's probability still gates it and its priority still
drives eviction. An object with no SoundTable plays nothing, matching
CPhysicsObj::play_sound @0x0050F460's early return.
The no-window host parses and discards, exactly as it does for F754/F755
— sound is presentation.

The sole VendorState joins the J4.2 inventory owners: populated by the
new 0x0062 ApproachVendor route (parse via VendorApproach, wire-to-
domain mapping at the routing seam, silent-drop on malformed like every
sibling), borrowed by both graphical and headless hosts, and torn down
through the EXISTING ExternalContainer reset stage — session reset,
portal-out, and logout all funnel through the one mechanism. Close is
client-local per retail (nothing on the wire): a range watcher rides
the existing per-advanced-frame publishMovement callback, using the
vendor's own authored UseRadius (ACE's 0.6 m fallback when absent).
The dormant ItemInteractionController ActiveVendorId seam is finally
wired as a live delegate — real id while open, 0 the moment the
session clears.
AP-160 filed in this same commit: the watcher measures plain 3D center
distance rather than retail's cylinder-gap, because Runtime has no
per-NPC collision radius/height source; bounded sub-meter, client-
local UI only.
Twelve Runtime tests: populate/field mapping, vendor replacement,
range clear + within-range retention, all three generation teardowns,
the ActiveVendorId seam, malformed-event drop. Clean-room complete
solution: 11,302 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed.

Campaign P Slice P3 item 3. The wire parse (CreateObject's
PublicWeenieDesc._bitfield), the decode (EntityCollisionFlagsExt.
FromPwdBitfield), the per-GUID storage (ClientObjectTable.
PublicWeenieBitfield), and the exemption logic (CollisionExemption.
ShouldSkip) all already existed and were already correct -- every
mover-flags call site just fed a GUID-prefix IsPlayer heuristic instead
of the real per-entity PK/PKLite/Impenetrable state (retail
OBJECTINFO::init 0x0050cf30 state |= 0x80/0x800/0x1000).
Port:
- EntityCollisionFlagsExt.ToMoverState translates the decoded PWD
bit-space into the ObjectInfoState bit-space FindObjCollisions
actually reads -- two different numberings that must not be
confused. Deliberately does not translate IsPlayer (every call site
already derives that correctly from its own GUID heuristic per
#184 Slice 2b).
- EntityCollisionFlagsExt.ResolveMoverPvpState is the one shared
ClientObjectTable-backed lookup (guid -> ObjectInfoState), replacing
what would otherwise have been three separate inline copies across
GameWindow/LivePresentationComposition/RemoteTeleportController.
- Threaded as a new optional moverPvpState parameter through
RuntimeRemotePhysicsUpdater.Tick/TickHidden and
RuntimeOrdinaryPhysicsUpdater.TryBegin (default None preserves every
pre-P3 caller unchanged), and as PlayerMovementController.OwnPvpFlags
for the local player's own two resolve call sites.
- TS-23 section 12b: PlayerWeenie.JumpStaminaCost's pk parameter now
reads the real PlayerKillerStatus(0x86)/LastPkAttackTimestamp(0x91)
pair against retail's 20-second recency window
(pkStatus in {4, 0x40} && (timestamp + 20.0) >= now), replacing the
P1 hardcoded false. RuntimeMovementSkillState/Snapshot and
LiveSessionEventRouter.RecomputePvpStatus push both the PWD bitfield
and the PlayerKillerStatus pair reactively, riding the SAME
ClientObject event triggers RecomputeBurden already uses.
- A conformance test caught a genuine precision bug in the first
PK-timer clock choice: DateTimeOffset.UtcNow's Unix-epoch seconds
(~1.7 billion) loses ~128 seconds of precision in a 32-bit float,
silently swallowing the entire 20-second window. Switched to
Environment.TickCount64 (small, monotonic magnitude) -- also the more
retail-plausible basis, since LastPkAttackTimestamp is itself a wire
PropertyFloat and retail's Timer::cur_time is almost certainly a
process/session-relative counter for the same precision reason, not
an absolute epoch.
Non-PK invariant (the acceptance criterion): an entity with no
ClientObjectTable row, or a row whose PublicWeenieBitfield is null or
0, resolves to ObjectInfoState.None -- a no-op OR into moverFlags,
bit-identical to every pre-P3 caller's hardcoded value. A dedicated
test drives two real ClientObjectTable rows through
CollisionExemption.ShouldSkip and confirms PK-vs-PK collides while
PK-vs-non-PK and non-PK-vs-non-PK both stay exempt (walk through).
Register: TS-23 retired (both the collision-flags and PK-timer halves);
the stale "M2 combat must land TS-23" phase-gate note removed.
dotnet build + dotnet test (Core.Tests 4008/2 skip, Runtime.Tests
425/0, App.Tests 3968/3 skip, complete solution build) all green.

Ports the retail CACQualities/EncumbranceSystem/MovementSystem chain
(named-retail decomp pc 256393/412901-414050/416169-416320/695958+) so
PlayerWeenie's run rate, jump height, jump permission, and jump stamina
cost are real functions of burden, current stamina, and vitae/skill
enchantments instead of stubs.
Core:
- New EncumbranceSystem.cs (delegates to the already-verified
BurdenMath formulas — one source of truth for the burden HUD and
movement physics) and MovementSystem.cs (GetRunRate/GetJumpHeight/
JumpStaminaCost/GetJumpPower, decomp-cited; ACE cross-referenced
where BN dropped the general-case arithmetic entirely).
- PlayerWeenie rewritten as the CACQualities-shaped composition:
CanJump gates on burden (<2.0 load, UN-8 — x87 polarity resolved by
plausibility, Ghidra MCP unavailable this slice), JumpStaminaCost
returns the real ceil((load+0.5)*power*8+2) cost and always affords
it (matches decomp — retail's own function never refuses; "weak"
jump comes entirely from the stamina==0 skill-zeroing gate inside
InqRunRate/InqJumpVelocity, not a hard refusal), SetStamina wires a
null="unknown, don't gate" sentinel preserving every pre-P1 test.
- EnchantmentMath.GetMod gained an optional StatModType flag filter
(GetSkillMod convenience wrapper) so the SAME vitae/family-stacking
machinery already used for vital-max buffs now also answers "what's
the vitae+skill-enchantment-adjusted Run/Jump skill" — reusing the
M3 active-enchantment state, not a new engine.
Runtime:
- RuntimeCharacterState now stores the pre-EnchantSkill base run/jump
skill and recomputes the adjusted value (vitae first, then matching
Skill-flagged buffs, floor 0.5, truncate) on every base push AND on
every Spellbook.EnchantmentsChanged notification — a vitae change
alone moves the produced rate without a fresh PlayerDescription.
- RuntimeMovementSkillState extended with Burden/CurrentStamina
(RuntimeMovementSkillProjection.ApplyTo pushes both through the
existing seam); LiveSessionEventRouter recomputes burden from the
same Strength+aug-property+EncumbranceVal inputs the burden HUD
already assembles (reacting to the same ClientObjectTable events)
and pushes current stamina from LocalPlayerState vital updates.
- Wires the previously dead-lettered ReportExhaustion() R3-W4 seam:
LiveSessionRuntimeFactory's OnMovementStatsUpdated callback re-
applies the current snapshot to the live controller and forces an
immediate movement re-evaluation on any skill/burden/stamina change.
Register: retires TS-5 (CanJump/JumpStaminaCost stubs) and AP-25 (no
vitae in pushed skill). Adds AP-127 (two minor unmodeled retail bonus
properties + the stamina-buff-adjusts-local-copy nuance, deliberately
out of the bounded "run/jump query path only" scope) and UN-8 (the
CanJump x87 polarity call, flagged for a future Ghidra MCP
confirmation pass). Extends TS-23 (PlayerKillerStatus not parsed) to
cover JumpStaminaCost's new pk parameter, hardcoded false pending P3.
Full pseudocode + retail citations + the vitae/skill-level finding in
docs/research/2026-07-30-stat-coupled-movement-pseudocode.md.
Release suite: Core.Tests 3977/2 skips, Runtime.Tests 425/0 skips,
App.Tests 3968/3 skips — all green. (One pre-existing, unrelated Debug-
only flake in LandblockBuildOriginTests reproduces on the pre-P1
baseline and passes in Release; not touched here.)
