Port of retail's SideBySideVitals character option, derived end-to-end:
retail authors TWO complete vitals windows and swaps their VISIBILITY on
the option bit — nothing is rearranged in place.
- gmFloatySideVitalsUI (0x10000056, Register @0x004D0490) is a second
full vitals window from LayoutDesc 0x21000075: 460x26, the same three
meters (0x100000E6/EC/EE), cur/max labels (0x100000EB/ED/EF), and
detail-icon overlays authored id-for-id with the stacked window — so
the same VitalsController.Bind and the inherited UiVitalsRoot click
toggle apply unchanged. Authored constraints ride the root's
0x3C..0x3F (fixed 26 height, width 360..3000) through
DatConstraintSource.
- Visibility ownership: gmFloatyVitalsUI::UpdateFromPlayerModule
@0x004CF140 shows the stacked window iff PlayerModule::SideBySideVitals
== 0; gmFloatySideVitalsUI::UpdateFromPlayerModule @0x004D0810 shows
the side row iff set; gmGamePlayUI::RecvNotice_PlayerOptionChanged
@0x004E9DA0 flips both live on option id 0x13.
- The bit: PlayerModule::SideBySideVitals @0x005D3070 =
(options_ >> 0x15) & 1 — CharacterOptions1 0x00200000, ACE-confirmed;
CharacterOptionTable already carried the exact row (PlayerModule-blob
group, not a 0x0005 auto-save id).
acdream shape: MountSideVitals mounts the second window hidden;
VitalsSideBySideController polls the borrowed J4 option bit once per
frame from RetailUiRuntime.Tick and applies BOTH windows' visibility on
the edge — covering the mount default, the PlayerModule blob arriving
after mount, and the Character tab's live checkbox with one mechanism.
Both window names join stateManagedVisibilityWindows so the saved layout
never restores a visibility the option owns. The Character tab's
SideBySideVitals row un-dims (StoreOnly → Live) with a real reader —
33 dimmed / 17 live.
4 new controller tests (initial apply both directions, live edge swap
both directions, steady-bit non-reassertion). App suite Release live-DAT
5499 passed / 3 skips; Runtime 1744/0.
