Erik df9c7a35eb feat(ui): Campaign OP slice OP2 — tab control, template ListBox, UIOption widget mappings
Ships the two new widget primitives the retail Options panel needs plus the
four remaining UIOption_* factory mappings, so every tab page (OP3-OP6) has
somewhere to mount.

- ElementReader/ElementInfo gain three new dat-property readers, following
  the existing effective-state-resolution pattern (never a per-state
  first-wins scan, per the round-5 N1 lesson): the Type-8 tab table
  (property 0x2E -> TabTable), a ListBox's row-template list (property
  0x64 -> TemplateList), and scrollbar linkage (property 0x72 ->
  ScrollbarElementId). LayoutImporter gains one hook
  (IUiChildrenAttachedListener) so a widget can resolve cross-references
  its own dat properties name by id once its subtree actually exists.

- UiTabControl (Type 8): switches exactly one page-slot child visible,
  syncs each tab button's Open/Closed state via the existing
  RetailTabBinding helper, and honors the authored default tab on mount.

- UiTemplateListBox (Type 5 with an authored template list): wraps a
  UiScrollablePanel viewport (sealed, so composition not inheritance) and
  ports AddItemFromTemplateList(index) — the resolver seam a page
  controller wires with real DAT access via the SAME
  LayoutImporter.ImportInfos(dats, layoutId, elementId) overload
  RetailDialogFactory already uses for its catalog LayoutDesc.

- DatWidgetFactory maps the four remaining UIOption_* widgets, each
  verified against the regenerated options_2100002B.json fixture before
  writing any code: 0x10000037 (Slider) is structurally an ordinary
  horizontal UIElement_Scrollbar, so it reuses BuildScrollbar directly;
  0x10000038 (Menu) is structurally identical to the vendor category
  dropdown UiMenu already models, so it reuses `new UiMenu()` like the
  Type-6 case; 0x10000036 (CheckboxSlider) composes an existing
  UIOption_Checkbox child + UIOption_Slider child via the new
  UiOptionToggleSlider wrapper; 0x10000044 (CheckboxBitfield64) authors
  zero children in the dat (every row is added at runtime via retail's own
  AddChild(lowMask, highMask, label, tooltip) call shape), so it's a new
  UiCheckboxBitfield64 composing UiButton per row. No new drawing code
  anywhere in this set.

- Five new committed fixtures (options_2100002B/2100002A/21000028/
  2100005C/21000029) plus 25 new conformance tests pinning the tab table
  (4 entries, Gameplay default), all three template arrays, scrollbar
  linkage, every new widget-type mapping, and a UiTabControl behavioral
  test (switch -> exactly one page visible, click-through the tab
  button). The Character ListBox's authored 6-header/49-toggle shape
  (lane B section counts) is proven reachable end-to-end through
  AddItemFromTemplateList against the committed fixture.

- Regenerating fixtures also touched 27 PRE-EXISTING, unrelated fixtures
  (an Outline/OutlineColor field pair added by an earlier commit,
  bcc34ee3, that predates when those fixtures were last regenerated).
  Per the slice contract, that drift was NOT committed — reverted back to
  HEAD, only the five new Options-panel fixtures are new files here.

- Filed TS-72: UiCheckboxBitfield64's click-toggle bit math (AND/OR
  set/clear semantics) is a documented approximation — the decompiled
  excerpt this campaign pulled covers UIOption_CheckboxBitfield64::Apply's
  WRITE side, not its own click-handler's bit math. Flagged for OP5 (the
  Chat tab controller, the first consumer that reaches the wire) to
  verify against the real decomp before any live transaction depends on
  it; nothing user-reachable can observe this yet.

Full Release suite: 12,770 passed / 4 skipped / 0 failed (was 12,745/4/0
post-OP1 — 25 net new tests, zero regressions).

acdream documentation map

This page is the entry point for project documentation. It distinguishes current sources of truth from implementation history so an old plan or issue banner cannot silently override the current program state.

Current snapshot — 2026-07-27

  • Milestone state: M3, “Cast a spell,” landed 2026-07-21. M4, “Live in the world,” is active.
  • M4 gameplay program: resume the pre-M4 world-interaction completion program. Favorite-spell overflow, status Use/Assess, and the complete assessment surface are user-accepted. Equipped-child picking and vendor browse/transactions remain Slices 46.
  • Structural/runtime state: all eight GameWindow decomposition slices, Modern Runtime Slices AJ, and the connected visual/lifecycle gates are complete. GameWindow is a 1,622-line composition/callback shell. AcDream.Runtime.GameRuntime owns canonical session, entity/object, gameplay, movement, physics, projectile, environment, and portal state; graphical and no-window hosts borrow the same owner graph.
  • Headless state: Slice K is complete. AcDream.Headless is a presentation-free Windows/Linux host with deterministic commands/events, shared immutable content, multi-session isolation, reconnect, resource telemetry, and 1/5/10/30-session gates. The final two-account native-Linux soak completed ten minutes, logged out through ACE, and converged every ownership ledger.
  • Linux graphical state: Slice L0 and the L1 implementation checkpoint are complete at 66f114b2 and 11501d52. Native Windows passes the active modern-GL/audio/window smoke. WSLg X11/Wayland correctly reject their missing GL_ARB_bindless_texture. Physical-Linux validation and L2L6 are explicitly deferred; resume at the supported AMD/NVIDIA L1 gate.
  • Completed gameplay gates: R6 locomotion/collision/projectile/teleport/ radar, two-client portal-out/materialization, indoor prepared collision, loot ordering, local/remote ground drops, and selection-marker lifetime.
  • Separate visual verification: issue #225, the shared-alpha lifestone/particle result; its connected resource-lifetime and performance routes pass.
  • Carried behaviour debt: issue #153 (far teleport onto an unstreamed edge), #116 (narrowed slide response), #235 (capped/RDP jump cadence), and the active temporary-stopgap rows in the divergence register.
  • Divergence audit: 189 active rows — IA 18, AD 38, AP 91, TS 38, and UN 4 — plus retained struck/retired historical rows such as TS-37.
  • Latest automated baseline: the Release build succeeds with the 17 test-project warnings tracked by issue #228; 8,826 tests pass and five are intentionally skipped. App passes 3,763 / 3 skips. The L1 Windows supported smoke and WSLg X11/Wayland negative-capability reports all end with zero window/GL/input/audio ownership.

Sources of truth

Read these in this order when deciding what to do next:

  1. plans/2026-05-12-milestones.md — the active playable outcome, freeze boundaries, and visual gates.
  2. plans/2026-04-11-roadmap.md — strategic phase ledger: shipped, active, deferred, and future work.
  3. ISSUES.md — tactical defects and small follow-ups. The status inside an issue is authoritative; physical order is not.
  4. architecture/retail-divergence-register.md — every known place runtime behavior can differ from retail.
  5. architecture/acdream-architecture.md and architecture/code-structure.md — ownership, dependency, update-thread, and extraction rules.
  6. architecture/worldbuilder-inventory.md — rendering/DAT code already owned in-tree versus mechanisms still ours to port.

If these disagree, milestones control the current outcome, the roadmap controls work ordering, the issue status controls the individual defect, and the architecture documents control implementation shape. Reconcile the stale document in the same change; do not leave both claims standing.

Research and implementation records

  • research/named-retail/ is the primary retail oracle: named pseudo-C, headers, symbols, and types from the Sept 2013 build.
  • research/decompiled/ is the older Ghidra fallback.
  • research/ contains focused pseudocode, traces, fixtures, and gate reports. A dated research note records evidence; it does not become a new roadmap.
  • superpowers/specs/ and superpowers/plans/ are per-slice design and execution records. Completed plans remain historical.
  • audit/ contains completion and conformance audits.
  • reference/ace-commands.md preserves the local ACE server's complete in-game command catalog and points to the authoritative per-command help surface.

Durable memory

  • ../claude-memory/MEMORY.md indexes the live subsystem memories and the render/physics digests. Read a domain digest before changing that subsystem, especially its DO-NOT-RETRY table.
  • ../memory/ contains stable engineering references such as the modern rendering pipeline, two-tier streaming, and toolchain notes.

Memory accelerates recall; it does not outrank the canonical documents above. When current truth changes, update the relevant canonical document and distill only the durable lesson into memory.

Historical and deprecated documents

  • bugs.md is the April 2026 bug snapshot. It is preserved for archaeology and is not an active ledger.
  • Dated plans and specs describe the decision at that time. Their completion wording is historical unless the current milestone/roadmap explicitly links the item as active.
  • Old R1→R8 architecture sequencing is superseded. Current execution comes from the milestones and strategic roadmap.

Documentation maintenance rules

  • Update milestone, roadmap, issue, divergence, architecture, and memory claims in the same commit when a shipped change affects them.
  • Keep one issue ID per defect. Narrow an issue in place; do not reuse another issue's number as a shorthand.
  • Mark automated, connected, and visual gates separately. An automated pass is not a visual acceptance, and an RDP throughput sample is not a local-display visual comparison.
  • Preserve research history, but remove stale “current/next” claims from living documents once the state advances.
