Two things the user hit while gating LU7.
1. "Refresh characters" disconnected the session they were playing. It opened a
SECOND connection to the same account purely to read the roster, which the
server treats as a new login — so refreshing while logged in kicked them
out. It was also redundant the whole time: every ordinary login already
carries the roster in the host's own status stream, and the orchestrator
already folds it into the profiles (ApplyRosterLocked runs for play sessions,
not just probes). Removed, along with "Add cached character", which existed
to paper over a roster the launcher can now always obtain by itself. The
account page says what happens instead: characters appear after you log in.
ProbeAsync stays in Core — headless bots and the CLI use it, and it has its
own tests. What is gone is offering it to a player as a button whose only
effect they could observe was being disconnected.
AnOrdinaryLoginFoldsTheReportedRosterIntoTheStore pins the replacement,
including that it persists so the tree is still populated after a restart.
2. "There is no headless or gui option" under a selected character. The buttons
were there — below the fold. The character page led with a plugins/login-
commands form whose two 96px text boxes pushed the Launch card past the
bottom of the scroll area, so the primary action was invisible unless you
scrolled. Launch now comes first and the settings form sits under it. A
player should never have to scroll to find Play.
Full solution 14,374 passed, 0 failed under the release-gate filter.
Not pushed — the user is testing locally first.
