Both OP4 reviews converged on one headline bug (Character-tab rows never
re-read live server truth after their pre-login constructor-word seed) plus
overlapping MUST-FIXes. All ten converged/consolidated findings land here:
MUST-FIX:
- BoolOptionRow.SaveCurrentValue now re-reads its live binding (retail's
GetValue()-into-SaveCurrentValue) on every OnShown — panel open, tab
switch in, initial activation — instead of trusting the pre-login
constructor word it was built with. Reset/tab-switch can now only
restore values that were actually live at the last show. LockUI's
host.Root.UiLocked one-shot mount seed now also converges on every
PlayerDescription via the existing OnCharacterOptionsChanged hook.
- Apply/Reset are wired to OptionPage.OnOptionChanged in production
(Ghosted when nothing changed, Normal when dirty, run once at bind so
both start disabled per retail's PostInit); Defaults stays ungated.
- The Combat panel's three LEDs (Repeat Attacks/Auto Target/Keep in View)
now read/write the same RuntimeCharacterOptionsState seam the Character
tab uses instead of a disconnected client-local GameplaySettings copy —
closes the "two writable copies" divergence. The three now-orphaned
GameplaySettings fields and RuntimeSettingsController's mirror
properties/SetCombatGameplay are deleted outright; the headless host's
hardcoded AutoRepeatAttack/AutoTarget now read the live option bit.
- RuntimeSettingsController.SetUiLocked's convergence guard now compares
against the last value actually applied to the runtime target instead
of the persisted GameplaySettings.LockUI snapshot, which could already
match a server-derived request without ever having been pushed.
SHOULD-FIX:
- DisplayTimeStamps now prefixes every chat producer (ChatLog.Append is
the one seam all of them funnel through), not just AddText's own
callers — heard speech, emotes, Turbine channels, and combat text were
previously missed. The prefix format escapes its colons and forces
InvariantCulture instead of the culture-dependent TimeSeparator
placeholder.
- sky.frag now honors uFogParams.w (fog mode) like the mesh/terrain
shaders, so Disable Distance Fog stops the sky dome's horizon band from
blending toward fog color too.
- Corrected the "byte-verified" overclaim on the timestamp format string
doc comment (BN-sourced, wire doc U6) and the AP-194 anchor-column
class-name typo; the RunAsDefaultMovement doc comments now cite retail's
actual acclient.h enumerator name.
- Added: DispatcherMovementInputSource's option x modifier truth table
(incl. || AutoRunActive with the option off), the per-page Apply/Reset
enable-gate tests, a real checkbox.OnClick/ToggleBehavior-driven click
test, and hash-pins for the six header string keys.
- Gate script step 8 corrected for the logout-flush false-failure
(closing the panel before relogging is load-bearing); a new step
documents the enable-gate sequence and the Combat-panel/Character-tab
cross-check.
Register: AP-196 (the Group-C default-source change + GameplaySettings
retirement) and AP-197 (the ignored per-character timestamp format
override) filed in this commit.
Full Release suite: 13,044 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (was 13,008/4/0;
net +36 tests from new coverage and legitimate assertion updates from the
GameplaySettings retirement).

Mounts retail's Options panel (LayoutDesc 0x2100002B resolved through host
0x2100006E slot 0x1000018D, gmPanelUI key 10) via the same catalog-import
pattern CharacterController already validates, registered through
RetailPanelUiController so it shares retail's "one active gmPanelUI child"
mutual exclusion with every other sibling panel for free. F11 and the
toolbar's options button (0x1000019B, already authoring panel id 10) both
now open it; the close button fires the same ToggleOptionsPanel action.
OptionPageModel (OptionPage/BoolOptionRow) ports retail's exact
Apply/Reset/Defaults/visibility semantics from
UIOption_Checkbox/PlayerOptionPage — LED clicks apply live immediately,
Apply commits every row unconditionally + flushes the batched blob, Reset
reverts only Changed rows, Defaults restores without committing, and
tab-switch/window-hide revert uncommitted edits. Wired for all four tabs;
this slice registers real rows on none of them (Gameplay authentically has
none — a pure button list). UiTabPanel gains an ActivePageChanged event so
the page model can hook every tab transition, including the initial
default-tab activation.
The seven Gameplay-tab buttons: Exit Game reuses the existing graceful
window-close path; Exit to Character Selection gets retail's confirmation
dialog and byte-verified mid-air refusal but still behaves as Exit Game
(AD-74 — no pre-world character-select flow exists); Configure Keyboard
and In-Game Help Files are inert this slice (AD-76 for Help — the
plugin retail depends on doesn't exist); Urgent Assistance/Report Abuse
short-circuit to their own byte-verified failure text through the
interface-text seam instead of ShellExecute against a dead URL (AD-75);
Use Mouse Turning Settings runs the pure MouseTurningSettingsMacro port,
persisting five new CameraTurningSettings preferences and sending
PlayerOption.UseMouseTurning — TS-74 records that acdream has no
persistent mouse-turning camera mode for the bit to drive yet.
Full Release suite: 12,918 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (baseline
12,871/4/0 — only new tests added).

BLOCKER: ChatSettings.DefaultOpacity shipped retail's base ChatInterface
value (0.5) as ONE shared global default applied to every
RetailWindowManager-registered window, not just the four floating chat
windows retail itself fades. That faded the whole out-of-box registered
UI (radar, vitals, toolbar, main chat, ...) to 50% opacity, including
several windows that can never take keyboard focus and so were stuck at
0.5 permanently. Fixed to gmMainChatUI's 1.0/1.0 override
(0x004CD0F0) instead — retail-identical opaque presentation for the 11
non-chat windows and the main chat window; only the four floating chat
windows now diverge from retail's 0.5-while-idle default, and the
Settings -> Chat transparency slider remains fully user-settable.
AP-190 reworded and gains two new decomp-verified clauses: (3) retail
eases opacity toward its target by 5% of the delta per tick
(ChatInterface::ListenToGlobalMessage @0x004F3840, armed from the focus
element-messages at @0x004F5275) where acdream snaps -- deferred, needs
a UI frame-tick hook the opacity controller doesn't have; (4) retail's
focus predicate is the chat ENTRY FIELD specifically
(ChatInterface::IsTextEntryFocused @0x004F30A0) where acdream uses
any-focusable-descendant. Both findings + the pre-existing UiMenu.cs
PushAlphaAbsolute(1f) popup bypass are folded into the window-shell
research doc's opacity section.
NITs: fixed the stale "text bypasses the alpha" comment in
UiElement.DrawSelfAndChildren (CH6c already routed DrawStringDat/
DrawString through the same ApplyAlpha chokepoint as sprites/rects);
added RetailWindowManager.WindowUnregistered + wired
RetailWindowOpacityController to detach and forget a window unregistered
while it held focus (previously only Dispose detached, leaking any
window unregistered mid-focus for the rest of the session); added
post-Dispose no-op guards to the three Set* opacity mutators; added a
DrawString (BitmapFont path) alpha regression test and a DrawStringDat
outline/background-pass alpha test (the existing tests only ever
exercised the foreground/fill pass).
Also fixes RuntimeSettingsControllerTests.SettingsViewModelSavePreserves
SectionAndTargetOrder's now-stale "target-chat-opacity:0.5:1" expectation
(caught by the full-suite run this fix requires) to match the new 1.0
default.

Retail's ChatInterface::SetOpacity (0x004F3120) fades the WHOLE composited
window surface with one alpha; UiRenderContext.ApplyAlpha already gated
DrawSprite/DrawRect/DrawFill (since 1da697ec, pre-CH6) but DrawStringDat and
DrawString still passed applyAlpha:false, so text stayed sharp over a
translucent window. Both now route through the same chokepoint.
RetailWindowOpacityController (new) subscribes to a new
RetailWindowManager.WindowRegistered event and drives every registered
window's live Opacity from keyboard-focus state, applied to EVERY window
(chat, floaties, vitals, toolbar, ...) rather than retail's ChatInterface-only
scope — register row AP-190, retiring the stale AP-40 "fixed 0.75, no focus
transition" row in the same commit.
Verified retail's shipped opacity defaults from the decomp (constructor
literals, no cdb needed): the base ChatInterface ctor sets
DefaultOpacity=0.5/ActiveOpacity=1.0, kept unmodified by the four floating
windows; gmMainChatUI's own ctor overrides the main window to 1.0/1.0
(always fully opaque). acdream ships one shared global default (0.5/1.0)
rather than replicating the per-class override — also AP-190. The linking
invariant (raising default above active drags active UP; lowering active
below default drags default DOWN — never a clamp) is ported verbatim as
ChatOpacityLink in AcDream.UI.Abstractions, shared by the live controller
and the new Settings -> Chat tab's two linked opacity sliders.
Persistence: ChatSettings.DefaultOpacity/ActiveOpacity round-trip through
SettingsStore; Save pushes both through IRuntimeSettingsTargets.SetChatOpacity
into the live controller, no restart required.
Rider (CH6a/b re-review): strengthened the grip-media regression guard past
a bare SpriteFile != 0 check — ChatLayoutConformanceTests now drives each
live grip through a real UiRenderContext/TextRenderer (backed by the
in-memory RecordingGpuDevice test double) and asserts the draw call chain
actually queued sprite geometry, via a new TextRenderer.DebugSpriteSegments
test-only accessor.
Full Release suite 12,459 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (baseline
12,420/4/0). No subagents, no client launches (session hard constraints);
pending the next connected user gate for visual confirmation.

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.
11,957 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (full Release suite, up from the
11,916/4/0 baseline).

Model active-monitor refresh telemetry as optional so GLFW display replacement during console/RDP transitions cannot escape the native move callback and terminate the client. Preserve the existing software pacing fallback until a later monitor event succeeds.

Move streaming, live-session, hydration, local-player, combat, and teleport construction behind the typed Phase-7 boundary. Add exact-owner runtime bindings and focused spawn-claim classification so partial startup rolls back without retaining old session targets while preserving the accepted construction and frame dependencies.
