The m_topContainer cell (0x100001C9) rendered blank (tex=0). Retail's
IconData::RenderIcons (0x0058d1ee) has an IsThePlayer() branch that draws a
CONSTANT backpack — m_idIcon = GetDIDByEnum(0x10000004, 7) = 0x060011F4,
m_itemType = TYPE_CONTAINER — NOT the player's body icon (the original AP-51
"equipped-pack weenie icon" premise was wrong). Compose that base over the
Container type-underlay via the existing _iconIds delegate. Verified vs decomp
(407546-407549) + IconComposer.GetIcon (base=arg2, type drives underlay) + a
live dat dump (map 0x25000008 index 7 = 0x060011F4). Test locks type+literal.
AP-51 reworded to the residual hardcoded-vs-runtime-resolve nuance (cf. AP-55).

Brainstorm output for inventory container-switching. Key decision from
the brainstorm: the handoff conflated two orthogonal retail mechanisms —
the open-container TRIANGLE (0x06005D9C, UpdateOpenContainerIndicator) and
the selected-item SQUARE (0x06004D21, ItemList_SetSelectedItem). User
confirmed both are real (a bag is just an item, so it gets the square too)
and chose to ship both this phase, the square uniform across grid+bags and
visual-only (no selected-object-bar wiring yet).
Pins the ViewContents full-REPLACE (ACE writes entries OrderBy
PlacementPosition, no slot field -> ContainerSlot=index), the Use 0x0036 ->
ViewContents 0x0196 round-trip, and the 6 touched files.

Wires the dormant TeleportAnimSequencer as the transit driver: on PlayerTeleport
the player holds in PortalSpace behind a full-screen fade (FadeOverlay) until the
destination terrain is resident (TeleportWorldReady, gated on the priority-applied
landblock), then materializes (Place), and after the world fades back in regains
control + acks the server (FireLoginComplete). No movement resolves against the
empty world, so the outbound cell frame can't corrupt. Outdoor changes from
place-immediately back to hold-until-resident (now fast, not a band-aid).
- FadeOverlay: fullscreen NDC black quad, alpha = ShowTunnel ? 1 : FadeAlpha.
- Retires TeleportArrivalController + its 2 tests (TAS subsumes the driver role).
- Divergence register: AD-2 updated to the new mechanism; AD-31 (fade vs swirl).

BuildCellSetAndPickContaining discarded the bool from TryGetTerrainOrigin — when
the current landblock's terrain hadn't been applied yet (priority-apply in flight
after a teleport or dungeon exit), blockOrigin was silently set to (0,0,0). The
AdjustToOutside/GetOutsideLcoord math treated world-frame sphere coordinates as
block-local and marched the cell one landblock per tick in the direction of movement
until lbX or lbY underflowed to 0x00. ACE rejected every subsequent move as a
failed transition.
Fix: honor the bool return. When terrain is unregistered for an OUTDOOR seed
(low < 0x0100), return currentCellId verbatim — "no block-local frame →
preserve". This mirrors the NO-LANDBLOCK verbatim contract in PhysicsEngine.Resolve
and is correct: the cell stays last-known-correct until terrain registers.
Indoor seeds are explicitly excluded (blockOrigin is never consumed by the indoor
pick path; outdoorPickAllowed=false for indoor seeds).
Reproduce + verify via CellMarchLandblockPreservationTests (two new FAILING-before
tests: WestEdge and SouthEdge with empty cache, no anchor → lbX/lbY preserved).
TeleportFarTownRunawayTests updated: no-anchor path now also preserves (pre-fix it
marched south to 0x59; post-fix returns currentCell unchanged).
CellTransitFindCellSetTests, Issue112MembershipTests, PhysicsEngineTests: added
RegisterTerrain for the streaming-center block (in production it is always resident
before outdoor resolves run; tests that used blockOrigin=(0,0,0) as an implicit
fallback now register the block explicitly). All 1567 tests pass.
Divergence AD-30 added to retail-divergence-register.md.

Banks the next clean inventory win (container-switching: Use 0x0036 -> ViewContents
0x0196 full-replace + the selected-container indicator that retires AP-56) as a
handoff for a fresh session, per the late-session-handoff lesson. Wire layer
already exists; design sketch + open questions captured.
Also flags the CLAUDE.md "Current state" banner as stale — it still tracks M1.5
(indoor world, 2026-06-14) while the active stream has been the D.2b retail-UI
track for weeks. Left the milestone reframing for a fresh reconciliation against
the milestones doc rather than a tired guess.

User confirmed the container column reads correct after the inheritance-resolved
fix (22d9231). Status: inventory empty-slot art FIXED + VISUALLY CONFIRMED.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Visual gate (2026-06-22) showed the side-bag/main-pack empty cells drawing yellow
triangles. Root cause: the frame-first heuristic grabbed the 36x36 container
prototype's DirectState child 0x06005D9C — which is the open/SELECTED-container
triangle indicator, NOT a background frame — and stamped it onto every empty cell.
Fix: drop frame-first; FindIconEmpty resolves the inner m_elem_Icon ItemSlot_Empty
THROUGH BaseElement inheritance (0x1000033F -> 0x10000340 -> base 0x1000033E ->
0x1000033B -> 0x06000F6E), so containers get the dark slot background matching the
inventory. Pin test now asserts exact ids (0x06004D20 contents / 0x06000F6E
containers) — the old structural-only assertion let the wrong-but-valid 0x06005D9C
pass (Opus review Minor 2, now vindicated). The triangle + green/yellow selection
square is deferred to container-switching (AP-56 reworded). Full suite green.

Live tp-probe capture refuted the handoff's _datLock-starvation hypothesis:
worker BUILD is fast + uncontended (waited=0ms); the 10-14s 'long transition'
is render-thread APPLY latency, and 'dropped at wrong position' is the
per-frame resolve corrupting the outbound cell frame (lbX zeroed) while the
player sits on an empty world. Design: priority-apply the player's dest
landblock + hold-until-resident behind a retail fade cover (reuse the dormant
TeleportAnimSequencer) + cell-march landblock-id hardening. Foundation-first,
not a hold over slow streaming. Flood-timeslicing + 3D swirl deferred.

Inventory contents grid / side-bag / main-pack empty cells now dat-resolve their

Inventory contents grid / side-bag / main-pack cells now render the retail

5-task TDD plan for the OPEN empty-slot-art issue: ItemListCellTemplate resolver
(ports UIElement_ItemList::InternalCreateItem's 0x1000000e -> 0x21000037 lookup),
UiItemList.CellEmptySprite, InventoryController + GameWindow wiring, divergence
rows AP-55/AP-56, ISSUES close + visual gate. Each task is test-first with exact
code; Task 1 pins the exact retail sprites from the live dat.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Brainstorm + decomp investigation for the OPEN issue "Inventory + equipment
slots show the wrong empty-slot background art". Verified against the named
decomp that retail's UIElement_ItemList::InternalCreateItem (004e3570) sources
each list's empty-cell sprite from attribute 0x1000000e on the list's own
ElementDesc -> catalog LayoutDesc 0x21000037 -> the prototype's ItemSlot_Empty
(0x1000001c) media. acdream hardcodes 0x060074CF (the generic toolbar square),
bypassing the per-list cell-template inheritance entirely.
Design ports the resolver: a new ItemListCellTemplate.ResolveEmptySprite helper
(mirrors the existing GameWindow 0x21000037 digit-array read), a
UiItemList.CellEmptySprite property, and InventoryController wiring for the
contents grid / side-bag / main-pack lists. Toolbar untouched (its 0x060074CF
is correct); paperdoll silhouettes stay Sub-phase C.

Captures the full teleport-flow journey (Slice 1 kept, Slice 2 hold built +
reverted), the root-cause findings (the IsLandblockLoaded key bug + the real
foundation problem: destination doesn't stream fast/complete during teleport,
likely _datLock starvation from the CreateObject flood), the open foundation
issues (#138 slow/incomplete streaming, lost-collision-after-teleport, FPS
leak Work-C, the PortalSpace freeze-vs-run-through question), and the clean
baseline (dd2eb8b). Written as evidence + open questions, not conclusions, so
a fresh session can re-examine the whole approach.

6 tasks: (1) UiItemList clip+scroll via the shared UiScrollable + whole-row
clip; (2) mouse-wheel; (3) InventoryController binds the gutter scrollbar
0x100001C7 like ChatWindowController; (4) side-bag column 36px pitch + empty-
slot padding to capacity; (5) backdrop coverage — screenshot-gated, primary
fix is the clip; (6) verify + bookkeeping. TDD on the pure/controller logic
(internals test-visible); backdrop is the visual gate. Grounded in the dat
dumps + the existing scroll/scrollbar machinery.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Stage 1 of the "full retail inventory" arc (Stage 2 = paperdoll, separate
spec). Grounded in the dat dumps: contents grid 0x100001C6 is 192x96 (6x3) +
scrollbar 0x100001C7 (16x96); backdrop 0x100001D0 is full-window 300x362
(so the "torn" look is the unclipped grid overflowing below the frame —
fixed by clipping); side-bag column 0x100001CA is 36x252 (7 slots).
Components: (A) UiItemList clip+scroll reusing UiScrollable + bind the gutter
scrollbar like ChatWindowController; (B) backdrop coverage — primary fix is A,
residual gated on the post-A screenshot; (C) side-bag column pads empty slots
up to capacity at 36px pitch. Paperdoll + B-Drag out of scope.

Bite-sized TDD plan for the retail teleport flow. Slice 1: pure
TeleportAnimSequencer (7-state TAS) + golden-timing tests. Slice 2: the
#145 readiness-gate fix (IsLandblockLoaded + Decide outdoorReady axis +
apparatus probe) — ships independently of the visuals. Slice 3:
TeleportFlowController (delegate-injected, unit-tested) + TeleportFadeOverlay
+ portal wiring (PlaceTeleportArrival split: place vs InWorld so the input
lock persists the whole animation). Slice 4: one yaw-freeze + portal sounds
via the EnumIDMap chain. Slice 5: de-dup login readiness onto Decide, route
login/death through the controller, logout (Shift+Esc) + 0xF653 + disconnect,
remove dead _teleportArrival plumbing. Slice 6 (literal 3D swirl) is a
follow-up plan gated on a cdb asset trace.
Drafted via two research + drafting workflows; slices 3-5 redrafted as one
cohesive unit against a pinned controller API after the first parallel pass
produced cross-slice inconsistencies (missing controller task, triplicated
yaw-freeze, a fabricated PlayerMovementController.Update signature). All
load-bearing signatures personally verified against the tree.

Reword AP-48 (burden) and AP-49 (carry-aug) to fallback/default-only: B-Wire
ports the retail wire read (login PD-bundle UpsertProperties + live 0x02CD;
ObjectTableWiring applies all ints), so SumCarriedBurden / aug=0 are now
defensive only. Confirm the server sends EncumbranceVal/0xE6 at the visual
gate, then delete the rows. Add the D.2b-B B-Wire SHIPPED entry to ISSUES.
(Memory digest project_d2b_retail_ui.md + MEMORY.md updated out-of-tree.)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Design/spec for B-Wire (follows B-Controller c38f098). Root cause found:
the burden binding already reads wire EncumbranceVal (PropertyInt 5) but
the value never arrives — login PD parses the player's int table then
drops it, the live 0x02CD (PrivateUpdatePropertyInt, no guid) is unparsed,
and ObjectTableWiring gates all non-UiEffects ints out.
Scope (user chose the full wire pass): player-property delivery (login PD
bundle upsert + 0x02CD parse + loosen the apply gate, retiring AP-48/AP-49),
latent-bug fixes (0x0022 4th field, 0x00A0 error), new C→S builders
(DropItem 0x001B / GetAndWieldItem 0x001A / NoLongerViewingContents 0x0195),
new S→C parsers (ViewContents 0x0196 GameEvent; SetStackSize 0x0197 +
InventoryRemoveObject 0x0024 GameMessages), and WireAll registration.
Opcodes pinned against ACE GameMessageOpcode.cs / GameActionType.cs; every
format requires grep-named → cross-ref → pseudocode → port + conformance.

3rd live session found the carried-anchor fix is incomplete: the cascade recurs
when a teleport arrives onto a NOT-YET-STREAMED landblock near an edge (0xC98C
arrival at local Y=190.3, NO-LANDBLOCK -> marches 0x8C->0xFE, wire localY=-21684,
ACE rejects). Streamed-arrival case IS fixed (verified ~10 landblocks). Same root
as the Z free-fall (#135/#138 placed-but-unstreamed gap). Prior 'gate passed' was
premature. Needs apparatus (anchor/guard diagnostic at the crossing) before a fix.

- #145: the original fix was incomplete (mounted panels inherited ZLevel 1000 →
behind the backdrop → washed out); continuation 417b137 closes it. Updated status.
- D.2b-B SHIPPED entry: visually confirmed; the two render bugs (backdrop wash-out
+ captions host-direct) documented.
- New OPEN issue: contents grid overflows (needs the gutter scrollbar wired; scroll
was out-of-scope for B-Controller per the spec).
- Roadmap ledger: B-Controller visually confirmed + the render fix noted.

The new value type collided with DatReaderWriter.Types.Frame (used in
physics-adjacent code like ShadowShapeBuilder), which the structural fix
(per-file using-aliases across 6 files) would have re-incurred in every
later physics slice. Renamed the TYPE to CellFrame; the Position.Frame
MEMBER keeps retail's name. Restored the 5 alias-only files to their
pre-Slice-1 state; synced spec + plan. Core 1522 passed / 0 failed.

get_block_offset (verified 0x0043e630 nets to delta-landblock * 192 m),
translate inter-tick collision state per-cell like retail (0x0050a592).

Workflow wf_87607d15-c43 (4 research streams + synthesis + 3 adversarial verifiers, HIGH confidence) confirmed the far-town runaway is a cell-membership label cascade from a discarded TryGetTerrainOrigin bool (CellTransit.cs:736 -> (0,0) origin for unstreamed neighbors), not a free-fall; 17410 is a wire artifact. User chose the architectural fix: port retail's cell-relative Position + retire _liveCenter from physics. Handoff doc carries the verified mechanism, the retail port table (decomp addresses), acdream divergence sites, apparatus (desync-capture.jsonl + probes + harness template), and the brainstorming-gate requirement.

Opus phase-boundary review findings:
- I1 (faithfulness): LoadToPercent now computes from the CLAMPED fill
(floor(LoadToFill(load)*300)), so the burden % SATURATES at 300% like retail
(decomp 176544-176576 clamps arg2 to [0,1] BEFORE the *300). The old
floor(load*100) over-read to 400% at 4x capacity. Golden test corrected.
- I2 (partition): exclude equipped items (CurrentlyEquippedLocation != None) from
the contents grid + selector — a mid-session self-wield routes them through
MoveItem(item, WielderGuid=player) into GetContents(player); retail's gm3DItemsUI
shows pack contents only. New conformance test.
- N1: drop dead 'using System.Collections.Generic' (left after the 383e8b7 cleanup).
- N3: AP-48 risk wording (drift can be low OR high vs server EncumbranceVal).
Build green; BurdenMath 17, InventoryController/UiMeter 10 tests pass.

Captured: teleport to far town (201,91) places correctly via the #145 verbatim path, then the per-frame resolve marches membership one landblock south/frame (un-rebased local position) until ACE rejects the inconsistent (cell, local) pair. #138 re-hydrate exonerated.

Read-only population of the gmInventoryUI tree: bind 0x21000023 by id,
fill the 'Contents of Backpack' grid + the right-strip pack-selector from
ClientObjectTable, drive the vertical burden meter, render the Type-0
captions. Faithful selector + full faithful burden meter (per brainstorm).
Ported AC algorithms with decomp anchors: CACQualities::InqLoad (0x0058f130),
EncumbranceSystem::EncumbranceCapacity (0x004fcc00) / Load (0x004fcc40),
gmBackpackUI::SetLoadLevel (0x004a6ea0), UIElement_Meter::DrawChildren
(0x0046fbd0) / Initialize (0x0046f7b0, m_eDirection from property 0x6f).

Records the confirmed root cause (ACE never clears KnownObjects on a
teleport so it won't re-send known objects; retail/holtburger keep the
client object table and re-render from it) and the two-part fix
(re-hydrate from _lastSpawnByGuid; pending-bucket persistent rescue).
Corrects the 2026-06-21 handoff: ClientObjectTable is the inventory data
model with no world position/Setup and cannot rebuild a render entity;
the real retained world-object table is GameWindow._lastSpawnByGuid.
Status: FIX SHIPPED, pending user visual gate.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Doors/NPCs/portals vanished after a portal OUT of the 0x0007 dungeon back
to Holtburg. Root cause confirmed via ACE + holtburger cross-reference:
the dungeon collapse drops a landblock's render entities for FPS, and ACE
will NOT re-broadcast objects whose guid is still in its per-player
KnownObjects set (never cleared on a normal teleport — ACE relies on the
client retaining its object table and culling stale objects itself). So
nothing restored them on the way back.
Retail-faithful fix: a real client keeps its weenie_object_table and
re-renders the world from it (holtburger keeps the table across a
teleport; only suspends physics bodies). acdream's _lastSpawnByGuid (the
parsed CreateObject records — position + Setup + appearance) IS that
table and survives the collapse (the collapse path never calls
RemoveLiveEntityByServerGuid, the only thing that prunes it). On landblock
(re)load, replay OnLiveEntitySpawnedLocked for retained spawns whose
render entity is absent — independent of any ACE re-send.
- LandblockEntityRehydrator: pure selection (landblock match; skip
already-present, the player, and mesh-less spawns), unit-tested (7).
- StreamingController: onLandblockLoaded callback after AddLandblock
(Loaded = dungeon-exit expand) and AddEntitiesToExistingLandblock
(Promoted = Far->Near).
- GameWindow.RehydrateServerEntitiesForLandblock: present-gate keys on
GpuWorldState (NOT _entitiesByServerGuid, which holds collapse
orphans), replay under _datLock; the replay's own
RemoveLiveEntityByServerGuid de-dup scrubs the orphan state.
Corrects the handoff: ClientObjectTable is inventory-only (no world
position/Setup) and cannot rebuild a render entity; _lastSpawnByGuid is
the world-object table. Register row AP-48 (no retail 25s visibility
cull). dotnet build + 1518 Core tests green.

Full orientation for a fresh session to fix#138: confirmed root (server
objects unloaded on teleport-IN, not restored on return; ACE re-broadcast
unreliable), DO-NOT-RETRY table (cache + render-cull eliminated), the
ClientObjectTable re-hydrate fix direction with file:line pointers, the
launch/probe/account setup, and the gotchas (re-broadcast latency, stale
sessions, don't-kill-clients, entity.Id != ServerGuid).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Deep dive (this session) eliminated the 2026-06-20 hypotheses for #138
(server objects + own avatar not showing after a teleport-out):
- NOT the Tier-1 classification cache: re-created live entities get a fresh
monotonic Id (_liveEntityIdCounter++), so the cache (keyed on Id) is always
a miss for them. (Side-finding: the cache has a real demote-vs-unload
invalidation asymmetry — RemoveLandblock doesn't fire _onLandblockUnloaded
while RemoveEntitiesFromLandblock does — but it's NOT the #138 cause.)
- The render path is fine when entities are present (login: [dyn] dyn=54
drawn=33; the dynamics partition + DrawDynamicsLast draw them).
- The actual cause: re-delivery is unreliable. notan/+Je walk-around run after
teleport-out: live:spawn doors=0, [ent]+ door appends=0, [ent-flat] server=1
— the server delivered ZERO Holtburg objects on return; they never reach
acdream. acdream unloads them on teleport-IN (the collapse) and nothing
restores them; ACE doesn't reliably re-broadcast. "Other clients see +Je"
confirms it's acdream's local world, not server state.
Fix direction (next session): re-hydrate GpuWorldState from the retained
ClientObjectTable on AddLandblock instead of depending on an ACE re-broadcast
(or treat in-range server objects as persistent across the collapse). Entity-
lifecycle/protocol change, best started fresh.
Diagnostic scaffolding (probes + the unrelated cache-asymmetry fix) reverted;
tree is back at the green #145 state (a15bd3b).
