A build cache serves a dependency rebuild after a branch switch or a `git clean` instead of
recompiling it, which is most of what the in-loop verify spends. It stays a convenience and
never a requirement: with nothing on `PATH` nothing is exported and a clone needs only stable
Rust and a C compiler, exactly as before.
`check.sh`, `gates.sh` and `smoke.sh` source it, so the loops pick it up without being asked
and a machine that would rather not have it sets `BENILLA_NO_SCCACHE=1`. An existing
`RUSTC_WRAPPER` wins. Only rustc is wrapped — the vendored Lua build wants its own
`CC="sccache cc"`, so it is not cached by this.
The era's tenth category was a button in the tree that went nowhere. It now opens onto the
era's own per-addon enable list, rebuilt on show from the AddOn API: one checkbox per
installed addon carrying its `GetAddOnInfo` enabled state, then the Load out of date AddOns
row under it (`checkAddonVersion`, inverted, so checked means "0"). A toggle calls
`EnableAddOn`/`DisableAddOn`, which the host persists to `AddOns.txt` at logout — the
reference's own contract for this screen, where the change lands on the next world entry.
`the_defaults_button_is_armed_by_rows_not_by_a_category` is the invariant that every
category leads somewhere and that Defaults is live on every page with a CVar behind it, and
AddOns is the second category to run its own page after Keybindings. It is exempted from the
`OPTIONS_PAGE_ROWS` half for that reason, and from the Defaults half because an addon's
enabled state is not a CVar: there is nothing there for Defaults to write back.
`build_landmarks` is the `0x4a6819` walk of `[0xc0e054]` lifted out of `feed_world_map`, so
the landmark list can be built against a world state without a live `WorldMapUiData` feed.
The guard-directions marker stays with the caller, appended after it, as `0x4a69c7` has it.
The new test drives the whole path — resolve the instance map, project through its rect,
gate by flag, exploration and world state — against the real catalogues. Alterac Valley's
towers and graveyards are `AreaPOI` rows on map 30, each objective owned by a separate
`WorldStateID` row at one position, so the row whose state the server set is the one that
lands: before any state arrives only the six ungated rows show, and afterwards the held
objective shows once with its own POIIcon cell, not every owner variant.
Four fixes a TurtleWoW client needs and stock 1.12.1 never asks for, each for a raise it
provokes:
A player attaches as soon as its display model is ready. Gating on `Equipment::settled`
withheld a body for good on a chain that never answers one `PLAYER_VISIBLE_ITEM` template —
in a battleground crowd, every other player. 1.12.1 withholds a unit only until its first
composite (`0x477860`); the compositor paints the armour it knows and re-dresses when a
template lands.
Races 9 (Goblin) and 10 (High Elf) get their sides, from TurtleWoW's `FactionTemplate.dbc`
group masks (Goblin's template 1609 is mask 5, Horde; High Elf's 1610 is mask 3, Alliance).
Without a side, the roster seat's `UnitFactionGroup("player")` is nil and an addon that
concatenates it at file scope raises and loses its whole load phase.
`wipe` hands back a table for nil. `Blizzard_RaidUI.lua:77,116` clears its
`RAID_SUBGROUP_LISTS` with `t[i] = wipe(t[i])` and then `tinsert`s into the result, so a
never-populated entry must come back insertable.
`RequestArenaScoreInfo` is defined as a no-op. `WorldStateFrame.lua:217` calls it on the
battleground score events; the function is native to TurtleWoW's client and the reply is
parsed by its own native code, never by that Lua. 1.12.1 has no arenas, so there is no
scoreboard here for it to fill.
Volumetric light: the shadow rig's directional light (sun by day, moon at
night) is ray-marched through its cascades at half resolution (16 Medium /

moon's map (shadow_hook::realtime_shadow_moonlit .z), ramping with the moon's

The 0.2.0 release: the workspace version is 0.2.0, `rust-toolchain.toml` pins the stable the release was checked with, `1.98.1`, so the tag builds with that compiler after stable moves on, and the README says each release is a tag on the Releases page.
Checked on this tree: the land gates, the live smoke run (its build line reads `benilla build 0.2.0`), the Linux and Windows compile of `benilla-app`, and the client on Vulkan (lavapipe) through its four capture scenes.

With realms in more than one category, the realm list shows the stock category tabs, so every realm can be reached. Before, it listed only the first category's realms and had no way to the rest.
- **The Region** is `Wow.ini`'s `[WoW Config] Region`, read through the archive chain as `0x40249d` loads it (the stock install ships it in `interface.MPQ`), with the section and key compared case-insensitively (`0x445356`, `0x4453cb`) and the value parsed as `0x445470` does. It is 0 when the file or the key is missing.
- **The categories** are the `Cfg_Categories.dbc` rows whose Region column equals it, in file order (`0x46e300`): id from column 0, name from the row.
- **Placement** (`0x46e510`): a realm's category byte 0 takes the first category's id (`0x46e5b8`), then joins every category with that id (`0x46e60b`). A byte matching no category puts the realm on no tab, as in 1.12.1. Tab ordinals count the non-empty categories only (`0x46edf0`), and the load-band statistics still run over every realm.
- **The tabs** are built from `RealmList.xml`: hidden for one category, `RealmListTab1`..`N` with the category names for two to eight, the front one raised and disabled. A click fronts the tab and re-lists (`RealmListTab_OnClick`), the highlight falls back to the current realm or none, and the scroll clamps to the new tab. Change Realm and `OnShow` keep the stored category (`0x46f188`, `0x46f400`).
- **No Region rows**: every realm lists on one untabbed page. The reference reads a NULL category there (`0x46f26a`, `0x46e5b8`), and benilla does not copy the fault.
- **Logging in** by name, the remembered or current realm, still searches every realm, as the reference resolves by name.
- A dev capture, `WOW_CAPTURE=glue-realmlist`, shows two tabs over five invented realms.
Checked: tests for the Region read, the category rows for a US and an EU Region from the install's DBC, placement (byte 0 folded, an unmatched byte on no tab), the strip hidden for one category and named for two, a tab click through the real click path, the highlight and scroll on a switch, the stored category across Change Realm, the statistics over every realm, and the no-rows fallback. Each fails with its piece undone. Gates and the smoke run green on macOS; no platform seam touched.

With Resurrection, Redemption or Rebirth armed and nothing selected, the targeting cursor takes a released party member's corpse: it lights over the corpse in range, and a click casts on it. Before, the cursor stayed grey over a corpse and a click bound nothing.
- **The pick** (`0x480816`, `0x6e6260`). While targeting, a corpse is a candidate only under a word in `0x8600`: under `0x8000` a corpse that is not bones and passes `0x6067d0`, and under `0x200`, tried only without `0x8000`, one that is not bones and fails it. Outside targeting every corpse stays a candidate, as before.
- **The reaction gate `0x6067d0`**: the caster's faction template toward the corpse owner's race template (`ChrRaces`, as `0x5d7120` reads it), friendly at 4 and up. The faction catalog now carries each race's template, and the PvP team loader reads it from there.
- **The cursor**: `0x6e6460`'s corpse leg (`0x6e6719`-`0x6e676d`) with its range tail. `GetMinMaxRange 0x6e3480` pads a corpse like a unit, reading the caster's own reach twice (`0x6e3605`-`0x6e361e`).
- **The click**: `BindTarget`'s corpse arm (`0x6e5f89`-`0x6e6020`), the `0x8000` arm then the `0x200` arm, through the same range merge as a unit (`0x6e602c`). Out of range raises the error and keeps the cursor armed, as the unit arm already does.
- **The wire**: `CMSG_CAST_SPELL` with the corpse bit and the corpse's packed guid, which the client writes for any mask bit in `0x8a02` (`0x7e4e10`) and vmangos reads for either corpse bit (`SpellCastTargetsInfo.cpp:156-157`); `CMSG_USE_ITEM` the same, for Goblin Jumper Cables.
Checked: byte-exact goldens for both packets; unit tests for the pick filter, the cursor verdict (bones, a hostile corpse, out of range, the reach pad), the bind arms from a world click to the sent command, and the reaction gate on the shipped DBCs. Each fails with its piece undone. There is no live run: the probes cannot aim or click in the 3D world. Gates green on macOS; no platform seam touched.

With Follow Terrain on, a `cameraTerrainTiltTimeMin` above `cameraTerrainTiltTimeMax`, or a NaN in either, no longer panics the client on the first slope. The ground channel bounded its tween duration with `f32::clamp(lo, hi)`, which panics when `lo > hi` or a bound is NaN.
- **The bound** is now the reference's two ordered compares (`0x50dd29`-`0x50dd83`, `lo = TimeMin × factor`, `hi = TimeMax × factor`): below `lo` takes `lo`, else at or above `hi`, or NaN, takes `hi`, else the duration stands. Nothing orders the pair, so an inverted one is an odd duration and never a fault. `lo` is compared unrounded, as it stays on the x87 stack (`0x50dd4c`), and `hi` as the f32 it is stored as (`0x50dd40`).
- **In flight too.** The armer `0x512490` returns 1 when the request matches the one in flight (`0x512555`), and the caller bounds the duration on any nonzero return (`0x50dd21`), so the bound runs again every frame a tilt is in flight. For an ordered pair that changes nothing; an inverted pair leans for `TimeMax × factor`, and a TimeMax changed mid-tilt bounds the tilt in flight.
- **The floor** that keeps a zero or NaN duration from stalling the tween moved from the stored duration to the divide, so the in-flight bound reads the raw value the reference reads.
Checked: nine tests, each derived from the reference's rule rather than the code, covering an inverted pair below, between and above, a NaN in each input, the unrounded `lo` compare, the in-flight bound, and the issue's case end to end (Min 20, Max 1 on a 20° slope). Each fails with its piece undone, the first ones with the old `clamp` panic (`min > max, or either was NaN`). The bound matches the reference's bytes over 20M random inputs with no bit difference.

Logging in to an account or realm with no characters lands on the empty character list. Until now the login cycle created a male Human Warrior on the server, named `WOW_CHAR` or "One", on every login that found an empty roster, a typed one included and again after Change Realm.
- **The reference.** The client builds `CMSG_CHAR_CREATE` in one place, `0x5aac50`, reached only from the glue binding `CreateCharacter` (`0x4719e0` → `0x4711d0` → `0x46b290` → `0x5aac50`), which stock `CharacterCreate.lua` calls only from `CharacterCreate_Okay`. With an empty roster, stock `CharacterSelect.lua`'s `UpdateCharacterList` disables Enter World and Delete and shows Create New Character, which benilla's select screen already does.
- **The change.** The create-if-empty step is gone from the per-realm cycle, and `NetConfig`, which existed only for it, goes with it. The create screen's own path is untouched.
- **Scripted runs.** `WOW_CHAR` must now be on the account: a driverless run whose `WOW_CHAR` is missing fails at select, as it already did on a non-empty roster, and a player's run shows the list. `docs/CONTRIBUTING.md` says so, and names `WOW_PROBE_CHARCREATE` as the explicit way to make one.
Checked: `an_empty_account_parks_at_select_without_creating_a_character` drives the real login cycle against a fake realmd (the server half of SRP6) and a fake world server answering an empty roster. It fails with the old step restored (the client sends `CMSG_CHAR_CREATE` on its own) and passes without it. Live against a local vmangos on a fresh account with no characters: before, the server gained a level-1 "One"; after, the client parks on the empty list and the account still holds no character. With a `WOW_CHAR` not on the account, a driverless run exits at select, and nothing is created. Gates and the smoke run green on macOS; no platform seam touched.

Targeting an NPC whose faction you are Exalted with no longer opens a script error. `UnitReaction` answered 8 there, and stock `TargetFrame_CheckFaction` indexes `UnitReactionColor[reaction]`, which has seven entries (`TargetFrame.lua:6-14`, `:183`).
- **The cap.** `UnitReaction 0x6061e0` takes `0x606530`'s answer through `min(rank, 6)` at `0x606439` (`cmp esi,6` / `jl` / `mov esi,6`), so Revered and Exalted both read 6, and the Lua binding adds one (`0x51683e`), so Lua sees at most 7. `ring_reaction` now caps its answer there.
- **The ladder stays whole.** `reputation_rank` is untouched: the reputation pane and the item requirement lines still read Exalted.
- **Every caller** of `ring_reaction` models `0x6061e0` and tests at 1, 3, 4 or 5, so none changes but the four Lua unit feeds (target, targettarget, npc, mouseover), which now share one `unit_reaction` helper. The vendor discount's Exalted row reads as Revered, as in the reference, and still takes 10%.
- **Comments** that gave the scale as 0..7 or 1..8 now say 0..=6 and 1..=7.
Checked: `the_reputation_rank_is_capped_at_revered` walks both sides of the Honored, Revered and Exalted thresholds; `an_exalted_npc_target_reads_revered_and_its_plate_is_green` runs stock `TargetFrame` on an Exalted Stormwind unit. With the cap loosened to 7 both fail, the second with the issue's `TargetFrame.lua:183: attempt to index field '?'`; restored, both pass. Gates green on macOS; no platform seam touched.

The startup line, crash reports and the debug panel now name the release a build is, so a bug report carries it: `benilla build 0.2.0 · b17be27 · 2026-09-27 · release` on a release, `0.2.0+12 · …` twelve commits past its tag.
- `benilla-buildstamp` also stamps `git describe --tags --long --match 'v[0-9]*'` and watches `packed-refs` and `refs/tags`, so a fetched tag restamps without a new commit.
- `BuildId` carries the workspace version and the describe. `release()` reads the version, with `+N` when the describe's tag is that version's; with no tag in reach (a source archive, a shallow clone) or the previous version's tag (the release commit before its tag exists) it reads the version alone.
- The bug template's example line shows the new form.
Checked: the four new `build_id` tests fail with the distance parser broken and pass restored; the describe command in a scratch clone reads empty with no tag, `v0.1.0-443-g…` over a launch tag, `v0.2.0-0-g…` on the release commit, and skips tags that are not `v`-numbered; the build script's output carries the new watches and variable.

A friendly or resurrection spell that binds nothing now enters the unit targeting cursor, as `TryCast` does for any residual word without the enemy bit (`0x6e507b`–`0x6e50ab`). `autoSelfCast` boots at its reference default of `"0"`, and its `Deviates` row is gone.
- **Binding.** The cursor binds a unit through a world click, and through `SpellTargetUnit` from the unit frames (`BindTarget 0x6e5b40`). The selection never moves.
- **Relation checks.** Heals and buffs ask `CanAssist 0x6066f0` instead of reaction alone, so a friendly NPC without the PvP flag is no longer assistable. That is part of #50.
- **Range.** `SpellCanTargetUnit` and the cursor answer per unit through `0x6e6460`'s unit leg, including the spell's min/max range (`6e677c`–`6e6802`). A click on a unit out of range raises "Out of range." or "Target too close" and keeps the cursor armed. The reference's abort there also strands the cursor, and that is not copied.
- **Your own model** joins the world pick only for a word `0x6e61a0` admits (`0x850e`, no `AttributesEx 0x80000`), and never in first person.
