F1 (MEDIUM): the correlation-latch docs claimed replies are never
misattributed; in truth an overlapping send OVERWRITES the latch and the
first reply routes to the newest request's event. Narrowed all three doc
sites to the exact contract (single outstanding request; overlap refusal
is CC3's Runtime verification gate, retail's DoFinish UNDEF-state rule)
and pinned the overwrite behavior with
OverlappingSend_OverwritesTheLatch_ReplyRoutesToNewestRequest.
F2 (LOW): filed register AD-100 for the drop-unless-armed deviation —
retail's Handle_CharGenVerificationResponse@0x0055E8B0 has no armed gate
and processes whatever arrives against its persistent verification state.
F3 (LOW): doc note in CharacterCreate.cs — ACE double-sends NameInUse
(IsCharacterNameAvailable runs twice; the first callback's return exits
only the lambda), so the second reply hitting the drop path during a
connected gate is EXPECTED, not a defect.
F4 (LOW): creationFailed's enum-member key renamed name -> reason and the
ATTEMPTED character name added as name, before any consumer shipped —
one status vocabulary must not give the same key two meanings
(characterCreated.name is a character name). Contract, writer, tailer,
and shape-pinning tests updated in lockstep.
F5 (LOW): the thread-id probe-note pointer now cites
ProbeNetLogOutbound's doc comment, where the note actually lives.
Fidelity fold (reviewer's positive note): the latch is retail's OWN
discriminator one layer down — 0x0055E8B0 case 1 branches on
GetVerificationState()==PENDING (create) vs not (restore) — now cited in
both the latch doc and CharGenVerificationResponse.cs.
Core.Net 994, Runtime 1667, Launcher.Core 324, all green Release.

F1 (MUST-FIX): RetailWaitDialogView was the ONE dialog view the 0a7dc7d6
EffectiveCanvasSize sweep missed - the Entering World wait dialog (fires
on ENTER, the char screen primary action) still centered against the raw
window and landed off the visible canvas. Same three-line fix as its three
siblings; the enter-wait test now grows the window over the fixed canvas
and asserts canvas-space centering.
F3/F4: two stale assertions about the DELETED first AD-98 substitution
(the register section-2 header line and the live-DAT oracle test doc) now
describe the completed FixedCanvasSize mechanism - the C4-closeout failure
mode, caught before it cost anything.
F5: RetailDialogData.Confirmation sets ElementAttribute40 itself (retail
MakeConfirmExitDialog writes 0x8E=1, 0xAC=1, 0xC5); the manual set in
GameplayConfirmationController is gone.
F6: MapWindowToCanvas truncates instead of rounding - rounding mapped the
window far edge one past the canvas last valid coordinate, a 1px dead
hit-test band; test updated to truncation semantics + far-edge case.
F7: AD-98 records that the no-letterbox aspect claim has no decomp
citation and is confirmed by the user live gate pass 2026-08-15.
F8: the durable world-name read in StartCore is IsCurrent-gated like every
neighbouring step.
F2 filed as #401 (invert RetailUi to opt-out - product-default decision,
not a gate fix).

Finding 1 (Exit button dead): retail's gmCharacterManagementUI Exit
button (element 0x100003A4, offset 7 from the listbox base in
ListenToElementMessage@0x004ed5a0) opens MakeConfirmExitDialog
(0x004ed250), whose exact ID_CharacterManagement_ConfirmExit text
(table 0x23000002) and m_confirmExitDialogContext re-entry guard are
now ported. On confirm (matching RecvNotice_CloseDialog@0x004ed760
case 1's ConfirmationResult check) the client exits through the
EXISTING graceful window-close seam (CharacterSelectionRuntimeBindings
.RequestExit -> d.Window.Close, the same delegate
GameplayInputCommandController's Escape fallback already uses) so
disconnected/exited status events still fire via GameWindow.OnClosing
-> CompleteShutdown. Retail's real post-confirm destination is
QueueUIMode(0x10000009) -> gmEpilogueUI, an epilogue screen this round
does not port — recorded as AD-99. Credits (element 0x100003A3,
QueueUIMode(0x10000005) -> gmCreditsUI) stays visibly ghosted like
Create, same treatment, out of scope this round.
Finding 2 (row names center-aligned, retail is left): the character
row template (LayoutDesc 0x21000004, element 0x100003A5, live-DAT
confirmed HJustify=Left with three stateful Type-3 highlight-art
children and no Type-12 caption child) authors its OWN justify
directly, with no separate text child to lift a label from.
DatWidgetFactory.BuildButton's Left-justify branch required
!ReferenceEquals(labelInfo, info) — true only when a label was LIFTED
from a distinct child — so a button's own direct HJustify=Left was
silently dropped to UiButton's Center default. Widened the branch to
also honor the direct case, preserving the existing lifted-child
LabelOffsetX behavior and leaving genuinely-centered buttons
(CREATE/ENTER/DELETE/RESTORE) untouched.
Finding 3 (World box empty): parsed ACE's GameMessageServerName
(opcode 0xF7E1, ACE.Server/Network/GameMessages/Messages/
GameMessageServerName.cs; retail CM_Login::DispatchUI_WorldInfo
@0x006ad860 -> ClientUISystem::Handle_Login__WorldInfo@0x005641a0 ->
ECM_Login::SendNotice_WorldName@0x00692b10, notice 0x186a2, consumed
by gmCharacterManagementUI::UpdateWorldName@0x004ec120 /
RecvNotice_WorldName@0x004ec360 onto element 0x1000039B) as
src/AcDream.Core.Net/Messages/ServerName.cs, cross-checked against
holtburger's ServerNameData. WorldSession.ServerNameReceived fires
alongside CharacterListReceived (ACE sends both in one
SendConnectResponse batch); RuntimeCharacterSelectionState.
ApplyWorldName is the new J-owner field (ungated by lifecycle, since
either message can arrive first); CharacterManagementUiController
binds it onto the WorldTextElementId UiText. Per the LA1 status
vocabulary, the characterList STATUS event's worldName field is
intentionally NOT added this round (kept bounded to the client-side
fix) — a follow-up if the launcher UI wants it.
Also corrects AD-44, discovered stale while filing AD-99: its opening
claim ("acdream has no retained character-management screen") was
false as of this session — LA7/LA8 shipped the screen in earlier
commits without updating this row.
Tests: exit-confirm open/cancel/confirm/re-entry-guard flow;
DatWidgetFactory own-HJustify-Left/Center regression tests plus the
live-DAT pinned row-justify assertion; ServerName parse round-trip
(byte-exact vs ACE's AceWireWriter fixture, truncation/wrong-opcode
cases); WorldSession dispatch test (roster+world in one wire batch);
RuntimeCharacterSelectionState.ApplyWorldName tests (order-independent
of ApplyRoster, unchanged-value no-op, Reset clears); controller test
binding the World text element to the live snapshot. Extended the
shared RetailDialogFactoryTests.BuildDialogLayout test fixture with a
Confirmation-type branch (Accept/Reject buttons) since this is its
first RetailDialogType.Confirmation consumer.
Suites: full solution Release build green; AcDream.App.Tests 5100/6
skips, AcDream.Core.Net.Tests 965/0, AcDream.Runtime.Tests 1665/0, all

AD-98's fixed-canvas stretch (73041d70) scales every retained-UI quad at
TextRenderer.AppendQuad, but the live gate reported it JAGGED — text
especially. Cause: dat-font glyph atlases and IconComposer's composited
icons upload nearest (TextureCache.UploadUiTexture's UiNearestRepeat
sampler) — correct at the native 1:1 scale (pixel-exact retail art), but
aliased once magnified 2.4x1.8. Chrome/background art was already fine:
it uploads through GpuSamplerDescription.WorldRepeat (linear) by default.
Retail's own fixed-canvas presentation is a single bilinear-filtered
frame blit, never a per-texture stretch — this closes that gap one step
earlier, at the source texture, without adding RHI surface area.
- TextureCache.GetOrCreateLinearUiTwin: lazily registers a SECOND table
slot for a nearest handle's IGpuTexture, sampled WorldRepeat (linear)
instead of nearest — no re-decode, no re-upload, no extra memory-ledger
bytes. Returns the handle unchanged for anything never registered
nearest (chrome, UiTextureTableHandle.None), so it's a cheap
unconditional probe. Twin slots are released in Dispose without
double-disposing the shared texture.
- TextRenderer.LinearTwinResolver + the DrawSprite chokepoint: swaps a
sprite's texture handle through the resolver only while
CanvasScale != One. At CanvasScale == One the resolver is never even
called — zero overhead on the ordinary in-world/UI path.
- InteractionRetainedUiComposition wires the resolver to TextureCache
right after every UiHost acquisition (the lease can hand back a host
from a prior session against a fresh TextureCache).
- AD-98's register row gets one added sentence recording the fix.
Tests: TextRendererLinearTwinTests pins the renderer-side handle-swap
seam GPU-free (segment handle selection); TextureCacheLinearTwinTests
pins twin creation/reuse/dispose against RecordingGpuDevice. App suite
5097/3 skips (Release, ACDREAM_PROBE_LIVE_MOUNT=1 live-DAT probes
included). Full solution builds clean.

Third iteration on the screen, completing AD-98. The previous substitution
stretched only the root BACKGROUND while the child widgets stayed at their
authored 800x600 pixel positions - and the background painting carries
visual anchors (the World/Characters captions are art), so the user gate
showed captions overlapping the listbox and every widget misaligned
against the stretched art.
Retail model (established at 71bf24fb): fixed-canvas pre-world screens
render at authored 800x600 and the whole composed frame stretches once at
presentation; the blitter has no stretch mode. Our equivalent now does the
same one stage earlier:
- UiRoot.FixedCanvasSize: while the char-select screen is active, the
retained tree lays out in its authored canvas and Draw scopes a uniform
scale onto TextRenderer.CanvasScale; the mouse entry points apply the
exact inverse so MouseX/MouseY and every hit test live in canvas space.
- TextRenderer.AppendQuad is the single emission chokepoint - sprites,
rects, AND glyphs scale together, including retail-authentic non-uniform
aspect distortion and stretched text. World-space HUD stays native (the
scale resets outside UiRoot.Draw).
- CharacterManagementUiController stops resizing Root to the viewport;
activate/deactivate/dispose set and clear the host canvas.
- UiDatElement returns to retail-pure copy-or-tile; the interim
StretchOwnBackgroundToFill flag is deleted.
- AD-98 updated to describe the completed substitution.
Tests: canvas-scale quad math, inverse input mapping (window click lands
on the canvas-space widget), degenerate-size guards, controller keeps
authored extent + sets/clears the canvas. App suite 5085/6 skips; live-DAT
char-select probes 3/3.

The LA8 char-select root (0x1000039A) authors LeftEdge=TopEdge=RightEdge=
BottomEdge=0 ("no anchor") in the installed DAT — confirmed via the new
CharacterManagementLiveDatTests.RootAuthorsNoEdgeAnchors_RetailNeverResizesItSelf
gate — so retail's own UIElement::UpdateForParentSizeChange (0x00462640) never
resizes this element; it stays a fixed 800x600 rect in retail's own tree.
Retail's generic UI sprite blit, Graphic::Draw (0x00693b20) dispatching to
Graphic::PutImage (0x00693a30) for an exact/undersized destination or a
modulo-wrapped tile loop otherwise, has no third "stretch" mode — confirmed
against BlitMode (acclient.h ~3135) and MD_Data_Image::m_drawMode/DrawModeType,
both COLOR-blend selectors, not tile-vs-stretch geometry modes. The prior
"Normal -> tile, matching ImgTex::TileCSI" citation in UiDatElement was a
mis-attribution: ImgTex::TileCSI (0x0053e740) is called exclusively from
TexMerge::CopyAndTile/ImgTex::CopyCSI for LAND-SURFACE terrain texture
compositing, never from the UI element system.
Given the dat authors zero resize anchors and the blitter can only copy or
tile, the only way retail's whole pre-world scene (background + buttons +
listbox together) fills an arbitrary window resolution is that these
fixed-canvas "flow" screens render at 800x600 and the WHOLE FRAME is
stretched once at presentation — outside the UI sprite system entirely.
acdream has no offscreen fixed-resolution UI render target / present-time
scale pass; CharacterManagementUiController's constructor instead resizes
the MOUNTED ROOT element itself to the live viewport, which is why its own
background tiled (Width/tw > 1 at any resolution above 800x600, wrapped by
GL_REPEAT).
Fix: UiDatElement gains StretchOwnBackgroundToFill (default false, every
ordinary chrome/container element keeps tiling) — when set, the element's
own DirectState background draws as one UV-0..1 quad instead of the native
tile formula. CharacterManagementUiController sets it on Root right where
Root is resized to the host viewport, reaching the same visual result as
retail's present-time stretch (no tiling, no aspect-preserving letterbox)
through a different mechanism. Divergence register row AD-98 records the
substitution.
Tests: three new UiDatElementTests pin the UV-span mechanism generically
(tile past 1.0 when unset and rect exceeds native size; clamped to 1.0 when
set; byte-identical to the old tile formula when rect equals native size,
so every unaffected panel is untouched). CharacterManagementUiControllerTests
pins Root.StretchOwnBackgroundToFill == true post-construction. The live-DAT
gate confirms the root's zero edge-anchors and Type=3 against the installed
DAT. AcDream.App.Tests: 5084 passed / 3 skipped with ACDREAM_PROBE_LIVE_MOUNT=1
(5081/6 skipped without it — the 3 live-DAT-gated tests skip).

The Opus retail-lens review decoded the PDB-paired binary at
CPlayerSystem::RestoreCharacter@0x0055d760 and refuted the
uninitialized-edx justification: the two extra arguments are real
push imm32 of a constant PStringBase (BN mis-renders them, but they
pack to >=4 bytes each), so retail 0xF7D9 is >=16 bytes where ours
is 8. The guid-only CODE stands (ACE reads only the guid; holtburger
consensus) but it is an adaptation, not a corrected decompile — filed
as divergence register AD-97 and the doc comment now states the true
mechanism.
Also from the review: the 0xF643 conditional-parse doc now names BOTH
ACE flag-only failure branches (NameInUse + Corrupt); CharacterError
0x08 doc corrected (ACE misnames it ServerCrash2 — the port corrects
an ACE misnaming; ACE omits three values, not four); LA7b hazard notes
added (ACE silent no-reply on unknown restore guid; retail SendToLogon
vs SendToControl routing; NumErrors never rendered); two review-nit
tests (flag=0 Undef flag-only, non-Ok body with trailing bytes
ignored).
Core.Net suite: 953 passed / 0 failed.

The re-review closed all six findings and flagged one docs-only nit: the
Platform layer block described App as reaching Platform transitively when
the same commit made the reference direct, and spoke of the launcher in
the present tense. Both corrected.

Opus dual-lens review of cb6502c8 passed with six findings; this lands
the fix round:
1. headless-portability.yml: AcDream.Platform src/tests join both path
triggers and the presentation-free build/test arrays — the moved XDG
tests run on ubuntu-latest again (they had fallen out of every Linux
lane).
2. acdream-architecture.md: AcDream.Platform gets its own layer block;
Runtime may-reference clause updated (the guard changed in cb6502c8,
its human-readable twin had not).
3. PlatformDependencyBoundaryTests: the BCL-only contract (zero
project/package references) is now enforced, not just observed.
4. memory/project_linux_graphical.md canonical seam renamed.
5. Plan LA0 recon corrected: the K0 Headless guard was never the guard
needing amendment (it asserts Headless own refs); Runtime own-refs
guard was — the commit did the right thing, the plan text now says so.
6. App declares its AcDream.Platform reference explicitly per its own
convention instead of riding transitivity.
Platform.Tests: 4 passed (3 moved + the new guard).

Three findings from the user's first Configure Keyboard look (OP8 gate,
2026-08-14), each root-caused against the named retail decomp:
- #394 row-caption font: the synthesized action-label UiText never set
DatFont and fell to the debug bitmap font. The authored row template
(0x21000009/0x1000002F, retail UIOption_ActionKeyMap) carries FontDid
0x4000000A (18px serif) — Bind now takes resolveTemplateFont and applies
the template's own authored font, resolved once per template pair.
- #395 key captions: raw enum spellings ("Shift+ShiftLeft") replaced by the
port of CInputManager_WIN32::GetNameFromKey @0x00687F40 /
GetNameFromKey_Internal @0x00687800 (RetailKeyNames): DAT string-table
override by DIK-name hash (key enum 4 -> 0x2300000A, meta enum 5 ->
0x2300000B, delimiter enum 3 -> 0x23000007 — GetDIDByEnum category 4,
live-probed), else the OS keyboard layout's own key name ("SKIFT") via
PlatformKeyNameProvider (Win32 GetKeyNameTextW — register row AD-96 for
the DirectInput-vs-GetKeyNameText adaptation), else the DIK-suffix
spelling. Bare modifier-key bindings show only the key name.
- #396 capture feedback: clicking a mapping button now opens retail's
instruction dialog (InitiateBinding @0x004899D0 -> OpenMapWarnDialog
@0x00488A00): a type-2 WAIT dialog on retail's MapWarn queue key
0x10000001 with ID_ActionKeyMap_MapInstructions (0x23000004, ACTION
variable interpolated), closed on key hit or ESC through the capture
callback; capture is not armed if the dialog cannot open, matching
retail. New RetailWaitDialogView (wait root 0x31 — same authored
popup/message pair 0x3D/0x3E as the confirmation root, live-DAT probed)
behind a shared IRetailDialogView presenter seam.
Probe evidence (env-gated, kept):
KeyboardConfigLiveMountProbeTests.ProbeKeyboardFontsAndKeyNameStrings.
Register: AD-96 filed. Gate script OP8 section updated (step 4 rewritten;
the "pressed/active state is enough" contract is retired).
Full Release solution suite green (13,424 passed / 4 skips).

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.

authored gmSecureTradeUI window, and both retail open paths
Three-lane research first (docs/research/2026-08-14-trade-lane{A,B,C}):
retail gmSecureTradeUI decode, the byte-exact ACE/decomp/holtburger
three-way wire agreement, and the acdream seam map (which found both
open paths ALREADY classified by the ported policy - OpenSecureTrade on
Use-a-player, StartSecureTrade on drag-item-onto-player with the
DragItemOnPlayerOpensSecureTrade option - dead-ending at a stub toast).
- Core.Net: TradeRequests builders (0x1F6-0x204, retail's CM_Trade
senders byte-checked against ACE's readers; the ACE-discarded
AcceptTrade echo carries zero-count item lists - AD-94), corrected +
completed inbound parsers (0x1FD-0x208; the old AddToTrade parser
missed the SIDE dword, TradeFailure missed the reason), delegate-hole
registrars, six WorldSession sends. 10 golden-byte tests.
- Runtime: RuntimeTradeState, the third sibling J-owner (fellowship/
allegiance shape): session-scoped, clears at generation reset (new
stage Trade=14), staged teardown stage 11 (Identity/EntityObjects
shift 12/13, TeardownStageCount 14 - the FA2-era per-stage-flag test
caught the mapping exactly as designed), combined ownership ledger,
event routing with ACE's wrong-initiator RegisterTrade landmine
honored (partner = whichever guid is not mine). 7 conformance tests.
- App: SecureTradeUiController binds the dedicated authored LayoutDesc
0x2100000D (root 0x1000007A - gmSecureTradeUI::PostInit's exact ids):
partner name/status/count/grid, the authored 'Trade' accept toggle
(accept <-> decline withdraw), 'Clear All' (ACE clears BOTH sides -
surfaced honestly), the X close, drop-on-your-grid staging, per-mode
accept cues (partner icon's authored Highlight state + Trade button
Selected latch). Mounted via the vendor recipe (nine-slice chrome,
hidden until RegisterTrade). ItemInteractionController's two policy
arms now raise SecureTradeRequested instead of the stub toast; the
drag path queues the dragged item until the window registers
(ClientTradeSystem::AttemptToTradeItem @0x0056DF80's shape).
Register: AD-94 (accept-echo zero-count lists), AD-95 (numeric-only
count texts pending template verification).
Suites: App 4,990/3, Core.Net 905, Runtime 1,626 - all green. The
panel itself is user-gate acceptance (two-client connected trade), the
#372-class lesson: fixture-green alone is not acceptance for a mount.

refused-drop yellow notice
Item 4 (confirmation dialogs missing text + names): the missing retail
mechanism was StringTable template substitution - an entry is N+1 literal
fragments interleaved with N named variables, composed by
StringTable::GetString @0x004300D0 (no-metalanguage branch @0x004303B7).
ACE sends the bare player name for types 1/4; retail's OWN CLIENT wraps
it. Ported as DatStringResolver.ResolveTemplate (PLAYER hash 0x05506DA2,
the exact compute_str_hash space; Chorizite stores the variable hashes
directly):
- Server-driven type 4 -> ID_Fellowship_FellowshipRequest, type 1 ->
ID_Allegiance_AcceptSwearConfirmation, injected into
GameplayConfirmationController; null resolve falls back to the bare
wire message, never invented English. The 2/3/5/6 " Continue?" family
never consults the composer.
- Local Swear/Break/Kick: the bind-time fragment-0 latch (which showed
the dangling "Do you wish to swear to ") is replaced by click-time
ResolveTemplate with the target's name.
All five templates verified token-free in the installed DAT - this is
NOT a StringTableMetaLanguage port (AD-81's engine caveat stands).
Item 5 (refused drop shows nothing; retail shows yellow top-center
text): the prevRequest latch was ALREADY ported (InventoryTransactionState);
what was missing was the consumer. InventoryTransactionState now raises
RequestFailed(request, weenieError) when a 0x00A0 clears the latch;
ItemInteractionController composes ServerSaysAttemptFailed @0x0058EAE0's
"The <item> can't be <verb>" (verb table + suffix map ported verbatim in
Core's InventoryFailureMessages, NAME_PLURAL for merge/split) and routes
it as LogTextType 0x1A ClientLocal -> the SpewBox, retail's yellow
top-center line. The dispatcher's second leg (@0x0055B342) also runs:
outside the 7-code exclusion set, WeenieErrorMessages resolves per-code
text/destination; 0x426 AttunedItem has no row in either place beyond
the verb line - faithful single-line output.
Register: AD-85 narrowed to its numeric-field item, AD-81 amended (the
token-free interleave is now ported; meta-token engine + FormatName
remain), AD-93 filed (wire-guid-match vs retail's latched-guid
preference; no Move/Wield latch kinds).
Tests: +2 InventoryTransactionState failure-latch, +5 ResolveTemplate
(constructed StringTable fixtures), +1 composer injection, +1 end-to-end
refused-drop line. Core 4,697/1 skip, App 4,983/3 skips.

One user-ordered batch across the FA social panel + world selection.
Every root cause was probe-proven before the fix (new
ProbeSocialClickRouting in SocialPanelLiveMountProbeTests - production
window mount + real UiRoot hit-tests + a synthetic click):
1. STUCK CHECKBOXES (fellowship x4, allegiance x1, "always checked /
can't change any options"): the authored checkboxes carry DAT
ToggleBehavior, so UiButton SELF-FLIPS Selected at MouseUp - the old
handlers read the flipped value and wrote the ORIGINAL back, snapping
every click to where it started (the probe recorded (id, oldValue)).
Fix: SuppressSelfToggle (the CH6a/b mirror discipline) + derive the
next value from the STORE; the per-tick seeding mirrors it back.
2. UNCLICKABLE ROSTER ROWS ("only get the move window cursor"): the row
name text is display-text ClickThrough=true, which the hit-test walk
skips regardless of HandlesClick - the wired OnClick was unreachable.
Fix: UiText.OnClick assignment now clears ClickThrough (central,
documented); the stats text gains the same select handler so most of
the row's width selects the fellow.
3. TRUNCATED EMPTY-STATE ("You do not belong... To create MISSING"):
the authored string resolves COMPLETE (three sentences) but embedded
'\n's rendered as one clipped line. DatWidgetFactory now splits
authored strings into one Line per newline, with the provider still
re-reading DefaultColor live (the state-color contract - caught by
BuildText_AuthoredLineTracksStateFontColor).
4. FELLOW NAMES WHITE (user-directed): the AD-82 invented leader-gold +
selection-blue tints are deleted; names always white (register row
narrowed).
5. ALLEGIANCE HEADER LABELS: bare "0"/"0" -> "Followers: N" / "Rank: [N]"
(user-specified format; the full retail StringInfo composition stays
AD-85's gap), monarch block matching.
6. FRIENDS/SQUELCH LIVE (AD-79 mostly retired): Add friend (name box ->
0x0018, retail clears the box - Request_AddFriend @0x0048D240),
Remove (row-click selection -> 0x0017), Appear Offline (CharacterOption
0x27 via the immediate 0x0005 auto-save, ACE pushes FriendStatusChanged
to your friend-of list), Squelch Character/Account add-by-name
(0x0058 guid0/type AllChannels + 0x0059) and Remove for the selected
row. The wire beneath (builders, WorldSession sends, Runtime commands,
parsers) existed end-to-end since J4.1/FA1 - this is panel wiring only
(docs/research/2026-08-13-social-wire-completion.md, committed here).
Send Tell stays inert (not in the order; AD-79's remainder).
7. WORLD SELF-SELECTION ("clicking my own char should select myself"):
retail has NO self-exclusion (CPhysicsPart::Draw @0x0050D823 arms
every physobj; RecvNotice_SmartBoxObjectFound @0x004E5BAE selects
unconditionally) - the includeSelf gate was an unregistered
divergence, now removed on both the left-click and right-click paths.
Element roles were probe-measured, never guessed (Add 0x10000514 /
Remove 0x10000515 / Send Tell 0x10000516 / Appear Offline 0x1000052C /

Squelch Character 0x1000054B, Squelch Account 0x1000054C).
Register: AD-79 mostly retired, AD-82 narrowed. Known remainder, filed
not hidden: the fellowship page's authored 600px content vs the 362px
viewport leaves Dismiss/Assign-Leader below the fold until the window is
resized taller (probe-measured; candidate follow-up).
Tests: Checkbox_Click fact rewritten to the mirror contract (both
directions), monarch-followers label updated, includeSelf expectation
updated, probe extended (click routing, synthetic click, action-widget
role dump). App suite 4,976/3 skips.

position memory, unified monitor, maximized restore; AD-92
Dual-lens Opus review of e56aa511 (reports committed under
docs/research/). The consolidated corrections:
- Mechanism M1 (load-bearing): on Windows, Silk's GLFW error callback
QUEUES exceptions on a static list instead of throwing - they detonate
later at window close, which is exactly #388's original two-stage
crash shape. catch(GlfwException) was dead code here and a failed
SetWindowMonitor "succeeded". Success is now judged by the NATIVE
POST-CONDITION (GetWindowMonitor after the call) on both enter and
exit; the catches remain only for the throwing platforms.
- M2 (both lenses): same-mode fullscreen re-apply is a no-op BEFORE any
native work (new IDisplayModeSwitcher.CurrentFullscreenMode). Every
Display-backed Config row applies per change - sliders per DRAG TICK -
so without this every tick while fullscreen re-issued a real
display-mode change.
- M3/M5 (both): the remembered windowed placement is process state (two
target instances exist - startup and live-save); a fullscreen boot now
exits through either instance to the real placement, not the (60,60)
literal.
- M4 (both): the switcher resolves the WINDOW'S monitor (attached
monitor when fullscreen, else IWindow.Monitor's index into the GLFW
array - the same monitor DisplayModeCatalog enumerated), primary only
as a last resort; the offered-list/switch-target mismatch is gone.
- Blast M2b: the offered-mode validator falls back to the SAME static
ladder the dropdown falls back to - Full Screen is no longer a
permanent silent no-op on catalog-less hosts (the switcher's own
monitor-mode-list check remains the hard guard).
- Blast M3: a windowed pick on a MAXIMIZED window restores it first
(Size writes are silently ignored while maximized; the deleted
WindowState=Normal write used to do this incidentally). New
IWindowedSizeSurface.IsMaximized/Restore.
- Mechanism M5: no silent bail-outs - the unparseable-resolution
fullscreen path logs, and the failure line no longer claims "staying
windowed" when the state is unchanged (#392 noted inline).
- Q1 nit: one cached Glfw wrapper (per-call GetApi allocated + took a
native refcount); IsFullscreen/CurrentFullscreenMode guarded.
- AD-92: highest-refresh-for-WxH + refuse-and-log versus retail's
pass-through-and-error ForceDisplayResolution.
Known-open tail, filed not hidden: #392 (persisted-flag divergence on a
refused enter - needs an apply-result seam); the mechanism report's
pacing-refresh WATCH rides the same seam.
Tests: +3 (same-mode no-op, unparseable-while-fullscreen refusal,
maximized restore-before-write). App suite 4,975/3 skips.

Decomp-first per the block's rule: the research doc
(docs/research/2026-08-13-retail-ui-display-change.md, committed here)
pulled retail's actual mechanism before any code. A display change runs
UIElementManager::RefreshEvent @0x0045C530 ->
UIElement::UpdateForParentSizeChange @0x00462640, which unconditionally
re-applies every floating window's own clamping MoveTo override
(x = max(0, min(x, parentW - selfW)) - top-left priority, oversized
windows pin to 0), then broadcasts global message 0xE whose sole
listener reloads the per-resolution auto layout. No proportional moves,
no resets; retail saves layouts only via @saveui.
Port: RetailWindowLayoutPersistence.ClampAllToScreen() is the cascade
clamp (no store I/O; _restoring suppresses the per-move save so a live
drag-resize cannot write settings.json per frame), and
RetailUiRuntime.Draw carries a two-step screen-size edge detector:
change frame -> clamp; first stable frame -> one
RestoreAll(saveBack:false) per-resolution reload (the 0xE analog; no
lazy save-back, matching retail's save-only-on-command). The login
restore path already used retail's exact clamp math (Apply) - the live
trigger was the missing half, which is precisely the stranding the user
reported.
Deliberate deviation, register AD-91: retail's gmFloatyChatUI windows
have NO clamp and can strand; the block's requirement ("UI windows must
stay reachable") clamps every registered window uniformly.
Tests: 5 new persistence facts (clamp/top-left-pin/no-move/no-save-on-
clamp/no-save-on-live-reload). App suite 4,967/3 skips. Gate script
section D3 filled in.

Dual-lens Opus review of 7e0c1303 (reports committed under
docs/research/). The law, gate, and vertical application are CONFIRMED
at instruction-byte level against the PDB-paired acclient.exe (the BN
text FPU-elides this whole area); the fix round addresses the findings:
- Blast MUST-FIX 1: real schema migration instead of a hand-edited dev
file. SettingsStore v2->v3: a pre-v3 display.fieldOfView was the
applied vertical FOV in degrees; v3 means retail's m_fGameFOV.
LoadDisplay migrates on read - the untouched old default 60 maps to
the retail default 90; a deliberate other value preserves its visible
16:9 framing (x (16/9 - 0.1)), clamped to the registered [10,160];
the next save stamps v3 and migration never reruns. The dev
settings.json hand-edit was reverted so the migration owns it.
- Blast MUST-FIX 2 / mechanism M2: the Field of View now applies LIVE on
Save (retail: Render::GRPCallback_OnRenderPreferenceChanged @0x0054d999
-> SmartBox::SetDefaultFov). RuntimeSettingsTargets gains the camera
graph and applies through ApplyDisplayWindowState - the update-phase
seam, deliberately NOT the render-phase preview path (the review's
WATCH-3 cull-vs-raster landmine).
- Mechanism M1 -> register row AD-90: retail's divisor aspect runs
through the Render.AspectRatio preference (ComputeAspectForViewport
@0x0054f150, (w/h) x pref x 0.75) - exactly raw w/h at the registered
default, which is what acdream assumes; retail's NaN-through-the-gate
quirk (M3) is folded into the same row as deliberately not reproduced.
- Docs: RetailFieldOfView now cites the decisive vertical proof
(D3DXMatrixPerspectiveFovLH fovy slot @0x0059ab71), the unconditional
SmartBox::RenderNormalMode site, and M4's exact horizontal numbers
(89.0/83.9/80.6 deg); the Config FOV row comment updated to LIVE.
- Blast WATCH 4 disposition: the 15 replay-harness PI/3 constants stay -
they are CAPTURE-TIME camera parameters for recorded fixtures, not
production framing; changing them would invalidate the replays.
Tests: +6 SettingsStore migration facts, +1 live-apply fact.
App suite 4,962/3 skips; UI.Abstractions 922.

User-directed (2026-08-13): "we should only support modern resolutions.
Not any old format." New DisplayModeCatalog enumerates the window's
monitor (Silk IMonitor.GetAllVideoModes) once at GameWindow load and
curates via a pure, tested rule: modern widescreen families only
(16:9/16:10/21:9/32:9 within 2.5%), at least 1280 wide, must fit the
desktop (an impossible windowed pick is not offered - the measured
3840x2160-on-2560x1440 silent clamp class), desktop mode always
included, refresh-rate duplicates collapsed, ascending order.
The Config Resolution row consumes the catalog through two new optional
Bind parameters; its Defaults value becomes the desktop's own mode.
Fixture/headless callers keep the static preset ladder, which now drops
800x600 and is pinned by test to pass the same curation rule (the OP6 S4
"default must be re-selectable" invariant holds on both paths).
Deliberate retail deviation, register row IA-22: retail listed the
adapter's complete enumeration including 4:3 legacy modes and authored
800x600 as the Config default (gmConfigUI::InitOptions
SetDefaultValue(0x03200258); gmClient::Init @0x004047af). The catalog is
also the designated fullscreen mode-switch validation source for
#376/#388 - an offered mode is supported by construction.
Tests: DisplayModeCatalogTests (8 - filter/clamp/dedupe/sort/ultrawide/
desktop-inclusion/fallback-consistency); ConfigOptionsPageControllerTests
row-12 default updated. App suite 4,961/3 skips; UI.Abstractions 916.

Retail's world-camera FOV is not a constant: the applied vertical FOV is
m_fGameFOV / (viewportAspect - 0.1), recomputed on every aspect or
game-FOV change (CreatureMode smartbox sites 0x00452b2f/0x00453b14),
gated by Render::SetFOVRad's open (0, pi) acceptance (0x0054b2d0 -
rejected results keep the previous FOV). m_fGameFOV defaults to pi/2 =
90 degrees (0x00454649) and is what the Field of View option sets in
degrees (0x00451e6a; registered range [10,160] default 90 -
gmClient::InitUIPreferences @0x004035b0). Net effect: the horizontal
view stays ~85-90 degrees across aspect ratios; wide screens trim the
vertical slice instead of ballooning the sides.
acdream hardcoded FovY = pi/3 = 60 degrees on all four world cameras,
aspect-independent, and the Config slider wrote raw vertical-FOV
degrees. New: RetailFieldOfView (the law + gate, decomp-cited),
CameraController.GameFovRadians + SetGameFov + one ApplyProjection
chokepoint recomputing every camera on SetAspect/SetGameFov/
EnterChaseMode/RestoreState; ApplyFieldOfView now feeds the law;
DisplaySettings.Default.FieldOfView 60 -> 90 (the retail registered
default; the stored number changed MEANING with this commit).
The same seam closes a second latent bug the 2026-08-13 "squished" gate
report exposed: SetAspect only ever updated Orbit/Fly - the CHASE
cameras (the ones the player looks through) kept their creation-time
aspect across every mid-session resize, drawing the world at the old
shape stretched onto the new viewport.
The paperdoll camera stays outside the law by design (retail portrait
mode is UseSharpMode, not smartbox - DollCamera's own doc).
Tests: RetailFieldOfViewTests (golden law values at 4:3/16:9/21:9, the
constant-horizontal property, the rejection gate, controller propagation
incl. chase attach/restore + rejected-law aspect-still-propagates);
DisplaySettingsTests + RuntimeSettingsControllerTests updated to the new
semantics. App suite 4,953/3 skips; UI.Abstractions 916/0. AD-89 retired
in this commit; user settings.json migrated 60->90 by hand (stale
pre-port default).

User gate report (Campaign OP happy-testing round, 2026-08-13): every
Config-tab dropdown drew its text gold + left-aligned and its popup a
fixed 6 rows regardless of item count. All three were unmeasured styling
divergences — the authored data (new probe menuprobe3, live DAT) says:
- button label child 0x10000355: fontColor white, hJustify=Center
- row template 0x1000035A: fontColor white, hJustify=Center
- popup ListBox 0x10000358: edge-docked L=T=R=B=1, the authored condition
arming retail UIElement_Menu::RecalculatePopupSize @0x0046caf0 —
popup resizes to the ListBox's summed content height, uncapped
(0x0046e5f4..0046e66c via ResizeScrollableArea's 0x32 broadcast)
UiMenu gains three opt-in properties (ButtonTextCentered,
ItemTextCentered, PopupSizeToContent) plus retail Open @0x0046cc42's
empty-list gate; chat + vendor keep the class defaults, so their shipped
behavior is untouched. ConfigOptionsPageController.ApplyMenuChrome wires
all four corrections for the 8 Config menus with the probe citation.
The same probe found vendor's authored popup ListBox is ALSO docked while
our vendor dropdown ships G5's fixed 6-row window — filed as #386 +
register row AD-88 (UNCLEAR: the G5 retail screenshot and the decomp
mechanism conflict) instead of silently reworking a user-gated surface.
The "resolution change resizes the window" observation from the same
report is #374's designed windowed-mode behavior (display-mode switching
is #376/#377) — no change.

The retail four-tab social panel (Fellowship & Allegiance) is
code-complete: all six slices landed and reviewed (dual-lens Opus review
-> fix round -> narrow re-review each). Fellowship two-session flow proven
live (FA6 bot gate PASSED). Closeout bookkeeping:
- register AD count 66 -> 67 (AD-87, the deferred allegiance bot gate);
- plan status flipped to CODE-COMPLETE with the OWED connected gates +
#384 (allegiance-swear ACE non-response) called out;
- CLAUDE.md Current-state gains the Campaign FA paragraph
(per feedback_claude_md_staleness), pointing at the memory digest.
Owed: the user's connected gates (§FA3-§FA6 of
docs/research/2026-08-12-campaign-fa-test-script.md) and #384's
ACE-console disambiguation. Full suite 13,304/4/0.

docs/ISSUES.md #384 records the live-run evidence trail (six connected
runs, the 0.005 m distance diagnostic, the confirmation-arrival diagnostic
that never fires) behind AllegianceGateEnabled=false.
docs/architecture/retail-divergence-register.md AD-87 records the honest
divergence this deferral creates: the allegiance half of the FA6 bot gate
is written and wired but unverified end-to-end over the wire, unlike the
fellowship half which is proven live.

The FA5 mechanism review found the offline-vassal name-grey
(OfflineNameColor) is an invented visual: retail's UpdateVassalsData
@004924c3 writes the vassal name with no colour change, and the offline
cue is EXCLUSIVELY the authored 0x100004AA marker (already wired,
SetVisible per online state). Removed OfflineNameColor; the vassal name
always renders in the normal white. The Allegiance page now carries NO
invented tint (unlike Fellowship's registered leader/selection tints).
Pinned by Allegiance_OfflineCue_IsTheMarkerOnly_NameStaysWhite (marker
visible iff offline, name always white). AD-82's FA5 addendum corrected
(it had described the now-removed grey as 'covered by the marker'); AD-86
count corrected seven -> nine.
Full Release suite: 13,297 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed.

Register:
- AD-84 -- Swear button's missing "target is a player" enable-rule gate,
same class as AD-83's Recruit-button gap.
- AD-85 -- the unported StringInfo variable-substitution engine (AD-81's
same root cause) extended to the Allegiance page's numeric-only
followers/rank/experience-passed-up fields and its three local
confirmation dialogs (verbatim-or-bare-name, never invented).
- AD-86 -- ACE's deliberate zeroing of seven AllegianceProfile/
AllegianceData fields (officers, officer titles, MOTD, MOTD-set-by,
name-last-set-time, lock, approved vassal, timeOnline, allegianceAge),
dropped past acdream's own parse layer to match retail's own
gmAllegianceUI, which has no widget for any of them either.
- AD-82 addendum: the vassal-row click-target-only selection shares
point (3)'s limitation, but NOT the invented leader/selection tints
(point 1/2) or the Fellowship-only world-selection sync (point 4) --
Allegiance's list-selection message has no SetSelectedObject call.
Gate script: new docs/research/2026-08-12-campaign-fa-test-script.md
SFA5 section, mirroring SFA4's structure -- the CF-1 subscription steps
(including the reconnect-while-closed MF-3-REOPEN analogue), the SF-7
per-relationship monarch/patron steps, vassal-list steps, swear/break/
kick with their confirmations, the ACE-zeroed-field honesty note, and
full "what to report"/"explicitly not in scope" lists.
Plan ledger: FA5 row filled in against 7ed79eaf with per-item summary,
directly-measured totals (13,296/4/0, +11 net from FA4's 13,285/4/0),
and the two primary-source resolutions this slice needed beyond the
research docs (the self-rank field's live buffed-quality source, and
"your follower count" == _total_vassals, confirmed by a fresh targeted
decompile of UpdatePlayerData rather than inferred).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Register (docs/architecture/retail-divergence-register.md):
- AD-78: the Character-tab dimmed count had drifted stale through two
campaigns (still read "35" after FA4 shipped 31; now 34 after the fix
round's three reversions). Addendum explains the full D6/SF-8 chain.
Blast review's own SHOULD-FIX 1.
- AD-82 (new): the invented leader-tint/selection-tint colors, the
name-text-only row click target, and the page-local (not generic
UiTemplateListBox) world->panel selection sync -- MUST-FIX 4's
disposition plus two items MUST-FIX 5 named as owed rows.
- AD-83 (new): the Recruit button's missing "target is a player" gate,
previously an inline comment, not a register row -- MUST-FIX 5's third
item. Section header bumped 61 -> 63 active rows.
Gate script (docs/research/2026-08-12-campaign-fa-test-script.md):
- SF-7: fixed step 3's self-contradiction ("only Quit" then "Disband and
Open should ALSO be enabled").
- MUST-FIX 3: new reconnect step after the existing close/reopen step.
- MUST-FIX 4: new world-selection step under the recruit/dismiss/quit
section.
- MUST-FIX 1: new HARD-check step for the 6/8-fellow 44%/34% truncation
(distinct from the existing SOFT 9-member ACE-divergence note).
- MUST-FIX 2 correction: the old invite steps tested whether acdream's
CLIENT gates the dialog on the option bits -- a mechanism that never
existed in retail and no longer exists in acdream. Rewritten to test
the corrected behavior (the dialog always shows regardless of the
target's own checkbox state) and to explain what ACE-side filtering
would look like if the local server implements it, so a tester doesn't
misattribute ACE's behavior to a client bug.
- Renumbered steps 9-22 to 9-25 to fit the two new steps; updated the
"what to report" section's step cross-references and rewrote its
invite/dimming bullets to match the corrected mechanism.
Plan (docs/plans/2026-08-11-fellowship-allegiance-campaign.md):
- D7 addendum: SF-8's further correction (FellowshipShareLoot reverts
too; only FellowshipShareXP survives as genuinely live).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Register: AD-80 files the D5 XP-share display divergence between
retail's byte-decoded table (acdream renders it verbatim) and the
currently-targeted ACE server's slightly different actual grant (.3 vs
.3111111 at 9 fellows, no 10-fellow row, wrong out-of-range default) --
an ACE-vs-retail gap, not an acdream-vs-retail one, filed because it is
directly user-visible through this panel. AD-81 files the two unported
retail text-composition primitives the fellowship page's mechanism
needs (StringInfo variable substitution, ACCharGenData::FormatName) and
what acdream renders instead (plain numeric composites, the raw typed
name). AD-78's derivation table gains its D7 addendum: 4 of the 35
store-only rows (IgnoreFellowshipRequests/FellowshipAutoAcceptRequests/
FellowshipShareXP/FellowshipShareLoot) moved to the Live bullet with
their new consumers named.
Gate script: new §FA4 section covering create (name + shareXP), the
open/close caption swap, button-enable rules, and the D5 display -- all
solo-testable -- plus roster/recruit/dismiss/leader-handoff/invite-
dialog steps marked [TWO-CLIENT] with an honest note that they defer to
FA6's bot-vs-ACE gate if a second account isn't available for this
connected gate. Corrects FA3's now-stale "these six buttons/four
checkboxes are INERT" claims in steps 11-12 to point at the new
section instead of leaving a wrong claim in place.
Ledger: FA4 row CODE-COMPLETE with both commit SHAs, the reconciled
13,238->13,272 (+34) test-count arithmetic, the live-DAT verification
summary (ACDREAM_PROBE_LIVE_MOUNT=1 against real installed DATs,
including the structural finding that retail's own frame-visibility
swap already gates the Create-flow controls away from the roster view
with no extra code needed), and the four scoped
deferrals/simplifications this slice made (the StringInfo/FormatName
gap, the proportional-share omission, the Recruit button's
superset-of-retail enable rule).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Campaign FA slice FA3: retail's four-tab social panel (LayoutDesc
0x2100006E slot 0x1000018F, RetailPanelCatalog id 12), built on the OP3
OptionsPanelController recipe -- Type-8 tab host, ActivateTabBehavior,
per-page scoped controllers.
- SocialPanelController mounts the tab host and wires the close button;
F3 (ToggleAllegiancePanel) and F4 (ToggleFellowshipPanel) open the
panel and switch to their own tab, sharing the same gmPanelUI
one-active-panel exclusivity every sibling main panel already has.
- The live-DAT tab table CORRECTS the coordinator addendum's x-order
guess: button 0x1000028C ("Allegiance") pairs with page 0x10000291 and
is the authored DEFAULT entry, not Friends -- each button's own page
id and its own P0x57 (matching the F3/F4 ActionMap ids on the
Allegiance/Fellowship pages specifically) both corroborate the real
pairing. See SocialPanelController's class doc for the full table.
- SocialFellowshipPageController swaps the two authored empty/full
frames (0x1000026B/0x10000275) on RuntimeFellowshipState's
IsInFellowship -- both frames' full containment (name box, create
button, checkboxes vs. roster list, six buttons) was confirmed by the
live-mount probe, so a single Visible toggle per frame is the whole
swap (closes lane-A unknown U6).
- SocialAllegiancePageController hides the monarch/patron blocks and
blanks their name text to a literal space when
RuntimeAllegianceState.Snapshot.HasProfile is false, using SCOPED
FindDescendant lookups (the panel authors 0x10000492 twice, once per
block).
- SocialFriendsPageController/SocialSquelchPageController bind their
ListBoxes read-only to RuntimeCommunicationState's existing J4.1
Friends/Squelch owners (names only), rebuilding on revision change.
Their action buttons are honest INERT (D1) -- register row AD-79.
- UiTemplateListBox gains Flush() (lane A/D's "Gap found" prerequisite)
so a poll-and-rebuild list can shrink between refreshes.
- RetailPanelCatalog.SocialPanel = 12, byte-verified from the live slot's
own P0x10000029; listed in Mounted only (no toolbar button -- lane A
§6.1: the open path is keyboard-only).

TS-81 filed: 0x027A AllegianceLoginNotification's retail two-line chat
text is not emitted -- the candidate strings resolve through Binary-
Ninja-mislabeled symbols at gmAllegianceUI::RecvNotice_AllegianceLogin
(0x00492220) that need a DAT string-table lookup, not a guess.
TS-80 partially narrowed: the fellowship-create shareXp wire mechanism
now exists end-to-end (IRuntimeFellowshipCommands.Create takes and
sends it), but no caller reads the option bit yet -- that's FA4's
create-dialog scope.
Updates the campaign plan's FA2 ledger row: code-complete, full test
totals (13,158/4/0 -> 13,201/4/0, +43 exact), the seam-doc dispatcher
correction, and the entity-table-borrow recommendation that wasn't
needed (the wire's own FellowMember record already carries full vitals
inline).

Applies the documentation-only MUST-FIX items from the blast review
(docs/research/2026-08-12-fa1-review-blast.md), plus mechanism SF-4:
Blast MF-1 / mechanism SF-4: register row AP-90
(retail-divergence-register.md) cited the deleted AllegianceTree class as
its evidence. Re-pointed to ClientCommandResponses.AllegianceProfileLookups
and the fellowship parsers FA1 added -- the deviation itself (radar
relationship state undelivered at runtime) is unchanged and NOT retired,
since FA2 hasn't wired a live owner yet.
Blast MF-2: corrected four falsified statements in the lane D research doc
(fa-acdream-seams.md), each marked with a dated, clearly-struck FA1
fix-round addendum rather than silently rewritten (it is a committed
research record):
- :791 "wrapping existing AllegianceTree" -- class deleted; re-pointed to
AllegianceProfileLookups.
- :666/:672 `commands.Fellowship.SetOpen -> BuildFellowshipUpdate` -- that
builder no longer exists; its renamed successor is panel visibility,
not openness, and using it here would re-introduce the exact semantic
bug FA1 fixed. Re-pointed to BuildFellowshipChangeOpenness (0x0291).
- :429/:668 `BuildFellowshipCreate(seq, name, openness, shareXp)` -- the
builder is now 3-arg; there is no wire openness field.
- :854 open question 8 (trailing-pad rule) -- ANSWERED by FA1 (VC-3),
closed with the answer instead of left open for re-derivation.
Blast MF-3: plan decision D9 and the FA1 slice-map row both asserted "the 8
missing fellowship WeenieError strings are added in FA1" -- FA1 shipped the
opposite, verified finding (no retail display text exists for any of the
8 ids). Both struck and annotated with the actual outcome.
Blast MF-4: reconciled the ledger's internally-inconsistent test-total row.
Direct measurement at the pre-fix-round tip (bc693728, stashed/restored
during this session to isolate it) confirms 13,149 passed / 4 skipped / 0
failed (13,153 total) -- the ledger's own prior number was actually
correct; the "baseline 13,103" and "net +50" framing next to it did not
reconcile with each other or with the diff-verified delta (+58 added / -9
deleted = net +49, one test of drift attributed to a different baseline
commit, not a further miscount). Also records this session's own +9 tests
and the blast SF-1 live-surface note (FA1 changed observable @allegiance
info output, not a purely-unwired slice).

Root cause (found via reference-identity-verified live-DAT probing, not
a guess): the four main-chat-window indicator buttons (0x10000522-
0x10000525) resolve their own correct ActiveState="Normal" at
construction, then get blanked to "" moments later in the SAME
LayoutImporter.Build call. The indicator column's backing panel
(0x10000600) authors PassToChildren=true on its own empty DirectState
(confirmed live: States[0xFFFFFFFF].PassToChildren == true); when
LayoutImporter.BuildWidget's post-attach state reapply runs for that
panel, UiDatElement.TrySetRetailState cascades its DirectStateId to
every IUiDatStateful child, including the already-correctly-resolved
buttons. UiButton.TrySetRetailState's DirectStateId branch used to
accept that cascade because every button structurally carries a
DirectStateId entry in its States dict as a property bag (ToggleBehavior/
RolloverEnabled/etc), independent of whether it authors any blank
sprite, so TryFindState(DirectStateId) found that entry and blanked
ActiveState even with no "" media. A hover "fixed" it only because
UiButtonStateMachine.RequestedState resolves to the same canonical
Normal id regardless of PointerOver when RolloverEnabled is false.
Retail's own decompiled UIElement::SetState @0x00464e70 does the exact
same unconditional-commit-plus-cascade; retail avoids this specific bug
purely through construction timing (UIElement::Initialize's SetState
call precedes child-tree construction, so a cascade fired during import
always iterates zero children). Our port's LayoutImporter.BuildWidget
deliberately reapplies in the opposite order to give retained
PassToChildren tabs their authored child media, so this literal
state-machine port needed a compensating guard.
Fix: UiButton.TrySetRetailState's DirectStateId branch now requires
REAL "" media (HasStateMedia("")) before accepting the transition.
Scoped to UiButton only; UiDatElement's parallel branch and the cascade
mechanism are unchanged, so CharacterStatController's own
PassToChildren-driven chrome children are unaffected. Register row
AP-206 records the divergence from retail's literal unconditional-
commit semantics. Regressed by two fast unit tests in UiButtonTests.cs
(DirectStateCascade_WithoutRealMedia_DoesNotBlankAnAlreadyResolvedState,
DirectStateTransition_WithRealMedia_StillSucceeds) plus a live-mount
probe confirming all four buttons resolve ActiveState="Normal"
immediately after import against the real installed DAT.
