root cause for every dead interaction) + retail's Total Items caption
The round-2 probes nailed it: the request seam fired for BOTH open
paths (use AND drag - "drag-release pick" -> "drag-on-player" ->
"request"), but no open-cmd, no wire-open, and no LiveCommandBus
drop-warning ever printed. MountSecureTrade captured
_bindings.Options.CommandBus() ONCE at mount time - the pre-session
surface whose Publish routes into a null route silently. CommandBus is
a Func for exactly this reason; the social mounts resolve it inside
each lambda. Every trade command - open (use + drag), accept (the
"unpressable" Trade button - the click FIRED, the publish died),
Clear All, close, and drop-on-grid staging - died on that one captured
bus. All six lambdas now resolve the Func per call.
Also: ID_SecureTrade_TotalItemsLabel probe-verified token-free
(fragments ["Total Items: ", ""], one ITEMS variable 0x004E8A23) and
composed via ResolveTemplate - the count texts read retail's exact
"Total Items: N". AD-95 RETIRED same-day.
The pre-feature stub-toast test row (drag-on-player option-on expecting
"Secure trade is not open.") now pins the SecureTradeRequested seam
instead. App suite 4,991/3 skips.

Both LiveSocialSessionBindings construction sites updated together
(LiveSessionRuntimeFactory.cs, HeadlessSessionHost.cs) so the single
GameEventWiring.WireAll registration site serves both hosts identically
(the K-slice unification). CurrentGameRuntimeCommandAdapter implements
IRuntimeFellowshipCommands/IRuntimeAllegianceCommands over the App
command bus (LiveSessionCommandRouter gains 12 new *RuntimeCmd records
+ registrations + LiveSessionCommandBindings send delegates), mirroring
DirectGameRuntimeCommandAdapter's direct-session shape including the
identical Quit leader-hand-off rule read from RuntimeFellowshipState.
CurrentGameRuntimeAdapter (the graphical IGameRuntimeView/
IGameRuntimeCommands composite) exposes the two new views/command
groups. Headless's DirectGameRuntimeCommandAdapter needed no changes --
it already implements both new interfaces from the Runtime-layer
commit.

Closes the two mechanism-lens and blast-lens dual reviews of Campaign OP
slice OP1 (86c0a7e0): docs/research/2026-08-10-op1-review-mechanism.md and
docs/research/2026-08-10-op1-review-blast.md.
MUST-FIX M1 (blast): RuntimeCharacterOptionsState gains a HasServerSeed
latch, set by Replace (the PlayerDescription seed) and cleared by
ResetSession. TryFlush/TryFlushIfAutoSaveDue now refuse before the seed
arrives — closing the window where a bot (or, after this commit, the
timer/logout triggers) could flush client-default option words over a
character's real server-side options before any PlayerDescription ever
landed.
MUST-FIX 1 (mechanism): the 480 s auto-save timer and the pre-logoff
flush are now wired into production, closing TS-71 (retired). Both ride
LiveSessionController's own tick/stop transaction via two new hooks
(ConfigureAutoSaveTick/ConfigurePreLogoffFlush), wired once by
GameRuntime's constructor — a Runtime-internal change requiring zero
host edits, exactly as the review identified. The flush body talks to
WorldSession directly rather than through App's LiveSessionCommandRouter,
which is what keeps this off the S2 lock-order hazard (below). Filed
TS-73 for the two OnChanged side-effect cases (weather/day/combat-
target/fog) TrySetOption still doesn't model — pre-anchored to OP4's
Group B consumer binds.
SHOULD-FIX S2 (blast, prerequisite for MUST-FIX 1): TryFlush/
TryFlushIfAutoSaveDue no longer invoke the flush callback while holding
_dirtyGate — the decision is made and cleared under the lock, but the
callback itself runs outside it, closing the lock-inversion hazard the
natural timer wiring would have hit (Runtime tick's _dirtyGate-then-
_gate vs the router's _gate-then-_dirtyGate).
SHOULD-FIX MF-2 (mechanism): TrySetOption now ports the two
PlayerModule-state-mutating cases of CPlayerModule::OnChanged's local
side-effect switch — turning ON IgnoreFellowshipRequests or
FellowshipAutoAcceptRequests clears the other through a real recursive
TrySetOption call, reproducing retail's second 0x0005 (the clear's send
reaches the wire before the primary option's own send, matching the
nested-call order in the decomp). The signature widened from
Action sendAutoSave to Action<uint,bool> so the recursion can send a
different (id, value) than the caller's own; every production call site
now passes WorldSession.SendSetSingleCharacterOption directly.
SHOULD-FIX MF-3 (mechanism): a hand-transcribed 53-row (id, isOptions1,
mask) theory in CharacterOptionTableTests, independently re-derived from
acclient.h's PlayerOption/CharacterOption/CharacterOptions2 enums rather
than copied from CharacterOptionTable.cs — closes the one column with no
id-by-id pin. Also added the pairwise-distinctness check blast NOTE N7
named.
SHOULD-FIX S1 (blast): LiveSessionCommandRouterTests' CH3/CH4 regression
test now drives the REAL TrySetOption binding instead of a hand-rolled
SetOptionBit substitute that had silently drifted from production after
OP1.
SHOULD-FIX S3 (blast): RuntimeCharacterOwnershipSnapshot gains
OptionsAreClean (!Options.IsDirty), included in IsConverged — a module
whose two words happen to cycle back to their default bit pattern while
still dirty is now caught by the combined ownership ledger, not just by
OptionsAreDefaults.
SHOULD-FIX S4 (blast): SaveOptions no longer encodes "did it actually
flush" as PrimaryObjectId 1u/0u (which read as object guid 0x00000001 in
the K2 event stream). Both host adapters now report the identical shape
(Accepted, objectId 0) — the graphical host never could report this
anyway (LiveCommandBus.Publish has no return channel).
SHOULD-FIX S5 (blast): Replace (the server-seed arrival) now also clears
IsDirty/FirstDirtiedAt — a wholesale re-seed supersedes any pending
batched-but-unflushed local intent (retail's own PlayerModule has no
partial-merge path either), documented at the member.
SHOULD-FIX S6 (blast): a cross-check theory asserting CharacterOptionTable's
masks equal PlayerDescriptionParser.CharacterOptions1/2's independently
(the write path vs the read path TurbineChatMembershipGate/
RuntimeSettingsController consume) — guards the exact CH3 failure class.
Also fixed a real allocation regression found while landing MUST-FIX 1:
the naive per-tick flush closure would have allocated on EVERY
LiveSessionController.Tick() call regardless of dirty state, which broke
the K4 headless 30-session resource-envelope gate. GameRuntime.
FlushCharacterOptions now pre-checks Options.IsDirty (itself retail-
faithful — CPlayerModule::UseTime opens with the identical m_bDirty byte
compare) before allocating the flush closure, so the allocation only
happens on the rare tick that might actually flush.
Dispositions on findings not changed this round:
- Mechanism NOTE 6 / not independently re-flagged: a re-entrant MarkDirty
from inside a flush callback can still be erased by the trailing
"_isDirty = false" — pre-existing, unchanged by the S2 lock restructure
(same outcome whether the callback runs inside or outside the lock),
not reachable from any current caller, not a one-liner to close
correctly (needs a per-dirty-period generation token). Left as documented
in the review; worth closing before the Options panel ever flushes from
inside a change handler.
- Mechanism NOTE 9, blast N2/N3/N4/N5/N6/N8: informational or require
touching files this round doesn't otherwise edit (SocialActions.cs,
CharacterOptionsBlobSource.cs, GameRuntimeContractTests.cs) — left per
the "one-liner in a file already being edited" instruction.
Register: TS-71 retired (both remaining SetCharacterOptions flush
triggers now production-wired); TS-73 filed (the two unmodeled OnChanged
presentation-binding cases, pre-anchored to OP4).
Quality bar: Release build green; full solution suite 12,853 passed / 4
skipped / 0 failed (baseline 12,770/4/0 post-OP2 — 83 new tests added,
zero regressions).

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).

Should-fix 1: RetailDialogFactory.CloseDialog's queued branch removed the
active DialogInfo, ran DialogDone (whose callback can synchronously open a
new dialog under the SAME queue key — the two-stage house-abandon
confirmation does exactly this), then called OpenNextDialog, which did an
unconditional Dictionary.Add on a key the reentrant dialog had already
re-occupied. Retail's HashTable::add tolerates the duplicate; Dictionary
throws. OpenNextDialog now returns early when the queue key is already
active — the reentrant dialog's own eventual close drains the queue.
Should-fix 2: @join/@leave wrote the local RuntimeCharacterOptionsState bit
before sending, but the Settings Chat toggles reached a second binding
(SendSingleCharacterOption) that only sent the wire message, leaving the
Turbine membership gate stale until the next PlayerDescription.
LiveSessionRuntimeFactory.CreateCommandBindings now has one shared local
function for both entrances.
Should-fix 3: corrected TS-68/#360 wording again — retail's DoAllegiance
dispatcher table EXECUTES boot/ban/officer/title/motd/name/lock/house/
chat/broadcast locally through their own handlers; acdream shows the
unrecognized-subcommand refusal for all nine pending the #360 port. What
matches retail is the ownership rule (the verb never reaches
DoChannelCommand/the server), not the subcommand behavior itself. Removed
the inaccurate "matching retail, not merely harmless" / "now matches
this" claims from both the register row and the issue.
Nits: corrected the HouseAbandonDialogCallback_First citation (0x00580E1A
is DoHouse's load site for the callback pointer, not the function entry —
the entry is 0x00580240, with the stage-2 confirmation string built at
0x005802D8) in both ClientCommandController.cs and the mirrored test
comment; added an InlineData case pinning "@clist allegiance" to
RequestChannelList(0x02000000); converted RetailClientCommandCatalog.
KnownVerbs from a plain array to a FrozenSet<string> with
StringComparer.OrdinalIgnoreCase, matching the file's other lookup tables.
Suite: 12,221 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (Release), up from CH4's
12,216/4/0 — net +5 tests, no removals.

Brings acdream's / and @ command parsing to parity with the complete
retail registry (130 registered verbs + 22 unregistered GetChannelID
fallback tags = 152 client-parsed verbs), per
docs/research/2026-08-09-chat-retail-command-registry.md.
Parser semantics (retail OnChatCommand/DoCommand):
- : and ; rewrite to "@emote <rest>" before dispatch.
- Verb trailing-comma trim ("@f, hi" == "@f hi") applied at every
verb-lookup site in the catalog and the parser.
- @tell/aliases split the target on the FIRST COMMA, not the first
whitespace token, so multi-word names work ("@tell Aunt Agatha, hi").
- The 22 unregistered GM/faction channel tags (admin, sentinel,
celestialhand, ...) now broadcast for real via a new
RetailChannelTagTable + SendRawChannelCmd bypass, reusing the existing
BuildChatChannel wire builder.
Binding corrections:
- /g, /group, /party -> Fellowship (0x800), not General.
- /rp -> reply alias (retail's own help text confirms "@r or @rp"), not
Roleplay; /role (an acdream invention) deleted.
- /allegiance, /all -> the allegiance management command
(RetailClientCommandCatalog), not a channel verb.
- /house no longer swallows unrecognized subcommands with a local usage
error; they now correctly fall through to ACE.
- @mr/@pr pinned as permanently non-executable (retail registers them
with a null function pointer).
New verbs with real local execution: endurance, speaker, title (silent,
AP-182), chat, notell, join, leave, permit, hslist, index, clist, on,
off, alh/ah (+ "@allegiance hometown"/"ho"), "@allegiance info",
"@house abandon"; a missing-alias sweep across pkl/hou/message_types/
msgtypes/msg_types/rt/send/whisper/w/vassal/covassal/co-vassals/c/
fellows/group/party/guild/gu/cg/ct/clfg/crp/soc/o; the non-retail
inventions gen/cv/lookingforgroup/tr/role/h are deleted. New Core.Net
wire builders (IndexChannels, ListChannels, AddChannel, RemoveChannel,
RecallAllegianceHometown, AllegianceInfoRequest, ListAvailableHouses,
AddPlayerPermission, RemovePlayerPermission, AbandonHouse) are all
parameterless or single-field payloads cross-checked against ACE's
GameAction readers, not guessed.
Deferred (filed as #360/#361/#362, register rows TS-68/TS-69/TS-70):
the ~22 remaining allegiance/house subcommands + standalone @motd
(largest single item, needs its own slice per the doc), the three
still-inert pure-local commands (day/log/render), and the inbound
GameEvent responses for the new outbound requests. All correctly fall
through to ACE server-passthrough rather than being silently swallowed
or faking success.
RetailCommandRegistryConformanceTests pins the complete 152-verb
registry against production: every verb resolves through exactly one
production surface if Implemented, through none if HelpOnly/
ServerPassthrough, and two reverse-direction tests fail the build if
RetailClientCommandCatalog or ChatInputParser ever claims a verb
outside this registry again. Final tally: 138 Implemented / 5
ServerPassthrough / 9 HelpOnly = 152.
Release suite: 12,190 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (up from CH3's
11,964/4/0).

Applies the Opus review of Campaign CH slice CH3 (614a1e05):
- B1: UN-9 was a phantom divergence — ACE's CharacterOptions1.cs:47
OR-sum is 0x50C4A54A (its own comment confirms 1355064650), identical
to acdream's literal. The wrong 0x50C48D4A existed only in the research
doc. Row deleted, register §5 reverted to 4 rows, research doc corrected
with dated notes.
- S1/S4: AllegianceBroadcast (0x02000000) is a server-echoing channel —
ACE's GameActionChatChannel handler includes the sender in its real-name
Allegiance.Members broadcast (retail's DoAllegianceBroadcast has no
AddTextToScroll), so the client must skip its local optimistic echo, not
keep it. ChatChannelInfo.Legacy.IsSelfEchoChannel() now returns true for
it; RouteLegacyChannel's comment corrected; Turbine.IsSelfEchoChannel()'s
backwards comment rewritten truthfully.
- S3: retail's /a stays on the legacy AllegianceBroadcast bitflag until
StartupTurbineChatSystem successfully starts Turbine chat — "never
started" (TurbineChatState.Enabled == false) now falls back to legacy in
both LiveSessionCommandRouter.RouteChat and
DirectGameRuntimeCommandAdapter.TrySendChannel, while "enabled but no
allegiance room" still correctly refuses locally.
- S5: added a LiveSessionEventRouter test proving the Options.Replace ->
OnCharacterOptionsChanged seeding order, and RuntimeSettingsTargets /
GameWindowLiveSessionOwnershipTests tests proving the concrete
ICommandBus.Publish wiring and the single LiveSessionCommandSurface
construction site.
- S6: AP-181 rewritten to name both of retail's omitted pre-send checks
(IsMessageSafe silent-drop, then IsMessageSpam) and stop misattributing
either to RouteLegacyChannel, which has no such gates.
- N1-N7: CharacterOptionId moved below SocialActions so its doc comment
re-attaches; TurbineChatMembershipGate reuses TurbineChatDisplayNames
instead of a duplicate table; the gate-to-refusal-text mapping is now
shared via TurbineChatMembershipGate.ResolveRefusalText instead of
duplicated in both hosts; ChatSettings.Default now matches ACE's real
CharacterOptions2.Default (Roleplay/Society start off); a doc-comment
clarifies only the five Hear toggles are server-backed; the register's
§3 header recounted 129 -> 128.
Suite: 11,964 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (baseline 11,957/4/0 + 7 new
tests). Campaign ledger CH3 review column updated to APPROVE-WITH-FIXES.

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.

Applies the seven NITs from the CH2 re-review (verdict APPROVE-WITH-FIXES,
following the REJECT->rework at e0e78883):
1. SpewBoxController's centered Left was captured once via
AnchorEdges.Top and replayed forever on resize (UiElement.ApplyAnchor's
Left/Right-both-false branch pins a fixed margin). Anchors is now
AnchorEdges.None and Tick recomputes Left every frame against the
current root width.
2. OneLine=false was defaulting to UiText's bottom-pinned transcript flow
(VerticalJustify honored only via ConfigureDatState, which this
synthesized element never calls). Added UiText.HonorVerticalJustification
so a non-DAT controller can opt the scrollable path into
VerticalJustify without a full LayoutDesc binding; SpewBoxController
sets VerticalJustify=Top so lines flow from the top of the 450x72 box,
matching newest-at-top insert semantics. Noted as invented-pending-
measurement in AP-178's row (no new row).
3. Documented the deliberate inversion of UiText.LinesProvider's
oldest-first contract in SpewBoxController.Tick (SpewBoxVM.Lines feeds
newest-first, which is correct specifically because the box is now
top-aligned) and added a test pinning the rendered order (newer message
is the topmost line), driving root.Tick.
4. Fixed the stale "retail's code default, 1" comment in
SpewBoxControllerTests — MaxConcurrentItems is the shipped LayoutDesc's
AUTHORED value, 4.
5. Added the matching unmapped-id diagnostics line to
LiveSessionRuntimeFactory's ShowWeenieError sink, matching the pattern
GameEventWiring's WeenieError/WeenieErrorWithString handlers already
use.
6. Corrected the "EXHAUSTIVE Portal sweep found ZERO" overclaim in
SpewBoxLayoutDumpDiagnostic: the loop's id source was DatCollection's
top-level aggregate GetAllIdsOfType<LayoutDesc>(), not dats.Portal's
own (which reports a count of ZERO for this type), so querying those
ids against dats.Portal.TryGet established nothing about Portal either
way. Corrected the same overclaim echoed in SpewBoxState's
MaxConcurrentItems doc comment and in AP-178's register text (both the
table row and the section-header history line). What's actually
established: dats.Local hosts the SpewBox layout at 0x21000011; whether
Portal also carries a copy remains unestablished.
7. Added a test exercising the full ShowWeenieError -> AddText -> SpewBox
path for id 0x0561 (the 50-friends-cap refusal) in
LiveSessionCommandRouterTests, mirroring LiveSessionRuntimeFactory's
ShowWeenieError closure exactly since every other LiveSessionRuntimeFactory
test in this tree is a source-text conformance grep, not an
instantiation.
Ledger: CH2 ledger row's review column now reads REJECT -> reworked
e0e78883 -> re-review APPROVE-WITH-FIXES -> nits (this commit); Status
header flips CH2 to code-complete/closed pending the user gate, CH3 next.
Build green; touched-project tests green (19/19 new/changed,

acdream never implemented @pklite. It is a CLIENT command in retail, not a
server one — ACE has no pklite text-command handler — so typing it forwarded as
inert chat text that the server ignored.
Retail: ClientCommunicationSystem::DoPKLite @0x0057A490 rejects with
WeenieError 0x507 when ACCWeenieObject::IsPlayerKiller @0x0058C910 is true
(that returns true when EITHER the PK bit 0x20 OR the PKLite bit 0x2000000 is
set), prints "Please see @help pklite for more..." and sends nothing if given
any argument text, and otherwise calls CM_Character::Event_EnterPKLite
@0x006A13F0 — a bare 12-byte parameterless game action, opcode 0x28F, the same
shape as Event_LoginCompleteNotification beside it. Verb string at 0x007E16B0,
help text at 0x007DF0C8, failure string at 0x007D31E8; one verb, no alias.
HasPlayerFlag is a tri-state (null = the local PublicWeenieDesc has not
arrived). The existing arena gates compare `== false` because they reject on a
known-FALSE flag; retail's DoPKLite gates the other way, rejecting on
known-TRUE. So this case compares `== true` on either bit: an indeterminate
description sends rather than blocks, which matches retail trusting the server
instead of inventing a client-side suppression rule.
Landed as its own commit because it is retail-faithful on its own merits, but
the motivation is C4 route 2: ACE advances SequenceType.ObjectForcePosition in
exactly two places, and the only reachable one is Player.HandleActionEnterPkLite's
entry-collision bump (allow_pkl_bump, default on). Every admin teleport advances
ObjectTeleport instead, so @teleto-style displacement exercises route 3, not
route 2. Without this command route 2 has no connected acceptance gate at all.
Gates: complete Release solution 10,867 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed
(9966b531 baseline 10,858/4/0; +9 = the 9 tests added). Coverage includes both
known-true rejections, the known-false success case, the tri-state unknown
case, the 12-byte wire envelope, and @pklite resolving as ClientHandled rather
than falling through to the server-text path.
