- a corpse is a body you can hover, cursor and click: it enters the same ray pass as units with the winner switched on type at publish (the reference's own shape — one trace over every object), the cursor classifier is transcribed whole (lootable-by-me → the pickup cursor, grayed by range; else the insignia leg behind the learned-skill latch; your own body falls through to the clear), and right-click is "not mounted AND lootable" → CMSG_LOOT; CORPSE_FIELD_FLAGS bit 5 is the PvP insignia flag, not "reclaimable" as an old note had it; the widening also caught that a GameObject anywhere on screen could steal the click from a nearer corpse, and that a left-click on a body cleared your target as if you had clicked ground
- the cinematic sweep closes eleven holes: a shot plays its sequence band's WIDTH, not its end — two shipped fly-bys band away from zero and ran long with their opening frames frozen (the Night Elf intro measured 102333 → 102000 ms); CMSG_NEXT_CINEMATIC_CAMERA announces every shot, the first included — the old "between shots" reading meant it was sent NEVER, since every 1.12 sequence row carries exactly one camera; the ack invariant is stated once (one CMSG_COMPLETE_CINEMATIC per accepted trigger, over-acking tolerated, under-acking never — a dropped ack despawns the world around you until relog); the hardware cursor hides for the shot; and the music cut lands in the frame that starts it — it was one frame late, exactly long enough for a first login's zone fanfare to start under the narration and be stamped as played
- RunBinding exists, and a fly-by stops handing the world its mouse: CinematicFrame's OnKeyDown hands the SCREENSHOT chord back to its binding through RunBinding, a global we never had, so every press during a fly-by raised and took no picture; and the mouse was fully live under a shot — right-drag turned the character, clicks picked targets through the flying camera, both buttons walked the body — so the pointer now reads as over the UI while a shot plays
- AdvanceTime and ReplaceIconTexture are carved off the bytes: AdvanceTime really is a no-op in the reference (its one reachable call is mov eax,1; ret), ReplaceIconTexture is a material swap over a model's type-14 texture slots that stores nothing on the widget, and SetModel(nil) RAISES — the "documented clear" our binding claimed was invented, not read; and the addon roster now says WHOSE package is short when a .toc names files the folder doesn't hold — nine of the corpus's twenty-nine load failures are the addon's own manifest, which the real client also shrugs off ("Couldn't open %s", carry on), so they stop reading as our defects

- knockback is a jump whose seed came off the wire, not a server spline: SMSG_MOVE_KNOCK_BACK's four floats are exactly the MovementInfo jump tail in a different order (speedZ down-positive — a rising launch carries a negative value, the sign vmangos's own source marvels at), flown at the same take-off site as the keyboard jump and acked with the post-launch pose, which the server matches float-for-float within 0.01 before relaying to anyone; it is the one take-off that seeds BOTH axes, absolute in world XY, so it skips the arm that would hand the momentum back to a held key and reduce the whole knockback to a hop; root refuses it silently, a seated player stands up first, no MSG_MOVE_JUMP goes out — that packet is the keyboard's, and vmangos logs a jump at knockback speed as an overspeed cheat — and MSG_MOVE_KNOCK_BACK turns out not to be dead: an observed knockback replays as the arc it is
- your guild crest reaches your tabard: the three GuildEmblems layers — background, border, emblem, on both torso tiles — belong to no equipment slot, so the body composite never wrote those cells and every guild wore the Guild Tabard's own default art; the install is gated on a display flag only seven of 29,604 rows set, of which exactly one is worn by any item — which is why every battleground and Argent Dawn tabard keeps its own art; the five wire indices are signed, because an undesigned guild carries −1 in all five and the client refuses to paint on the first −1 (unguarded, the commonest guild state on a young realm would have worn a blank tabard); the emblem keys the skin cache, so two guilds in the same tabard display cannot lend each other crests; and a guild tabard's background hides the bra where a plain tabard does not — it is a cutout, 79.5% opaque off the shipped art, and what shows at the sides is bare skin
- a fly-by is framed by the world camera, not the M2 camera record's fov: a census of every reader shows the record's fov and clip planes reach only the portrait and Model-frame paths — nothing on the cinematic path reads any of the three — so fifteen of the sixteen shipped shots were rendering at HALF their intended vertical FOV, visibly over-zoomed on every race intro but the Undead; the fix is a deletion, and it dissolves a standing puzzle: the authored 0.22 and 27.8-yard "clips", which would render the dwarf intro's mountains as empty sky, are not clips at all on this path — two floats nobody consumes look exactly like that
- 104 of Onyxia's lava traps stood on an interior floor classified as outdoors, taking the day/night sun inside a windowless lair: a GameObject's light node anchors at its model's AUTHORED bounding-box centre, and the trap's box reaches 98.42 yd past its bind pose — the anchor sits ~40 yd under the chamber floor, where a downward ray finds nothing above it to claim; the reference recovers with a 1000-yd upward retry at the claim itself, which benilla had only at the colour sample, so the verdict was decided before any colour was read; all 104 now classify interior, beside the 26 rocks and 119 eggs that always did — and the drowned-corpse pose came back from its cross-check confirmed at the bytes (a strict liquid-depth test at exactly two-thirds of a yard, Dead or Drowned), with the two reference-side notes it contradicted corrected over there

- cinematics play: `SMSG_TRIGGER_CINEMATIC` resolves through `CinematicSequences.dbc` → `CinematicCamera.dbc` → a `Cameras\*.m2` whose camera record is an eye path, a look-at path and a roll — cubic tracks with the full step / linear / Bézier / Hermite dispatch the bone loops collapse to step-or-linear (every shipped fly-by is Bézier), planted at the row's origin and facing (`Rz(+facing)`, checked against vmangos's own waypoint table: 8.5 yd mean on the human path, 154 with the other sign); FOV is per shot (the Undead intro authors 90°, the rest 45°), roll is authored around whole turns, the flight ends at the sequence band's end, a trigger arriving before the loading cover lifts is latched and started when it does, ESC skips through `CinematicFrame`'s own `OnKeyDown` (`StopCinematic` has zero native callers), and every path acks — natural end, ESC, or an unresolvable trigger immediately, as before; `.debug play cinematic <id>` replays any of them
- a cinematic hides the HUD — `UIParent:Hide()` reaches nothing here because the HUD frames are not its children, so the ALT-Z draw-level hide is used and the letterbox moves out of FrameXML onto Bevy UI nodes where that hide cannot reach it, recomputed per frame (bars only wider than 4:3, the picture cropped to 2:1) — and the restore only un-hides a UI this module hid
- a lit particle's normal is world up, one constant per draw, not camera-facing: Onyxia's always-on floor haze read about four times brighter from a level camera than from above because the shader dotted a to-eye normal against a fixed light; the reference uploads row 2 of the view matrix — world +Z carried into eye space — on every vertex and carries the light into the same frame, so the rotation cancels; 400 lit emitters (the waterfalls, chimney and campfire smoke, Westfall dust, Dun Morogh snow) stop brightening and dimming as you turn
- the `play` profile drops ThinLTO — rustc #86049 was intermittently poisoning the incremental link with `_anon.<hash>.llvm.<id>` symbols promoted by an earlier compile (48 unresolved across 7 codegen units; 1065 such symbols → 0 after) — and `benilla-formats` stops taking `image` with default features, which had been compiling a complete AV1 encoder into a crate that writes two PNGs: 499 → 466 workspace crates

- every chat scroll re-arms the displayed lines' fade — up, down, top, bottom, page up/down, and a no-op scroll at the bottom too, which is what clicking the arrows on an already-at-bottom chat does; a line at alpha 0 was unreachable for the rest of the session (play two minutes and the chat was empty and stayed empty), because "scrolling off the bottom freezes all fade countdowns; nothing un-fades" had been read as a law about the class when it was a finding about one function's gate; the displayed set only, never the whole ring, with the frame's current defaults, as the reference's re-arm writes them; there is no hover reveal — the scroll re-arm is the whole mechanism; and the fade ramp reads the un-rounded countdown, not the stored f32
- the GameObject animation arm rolls a variation: Onyxia's 104 lava traps and 26 falling rocks author Stand twice — a 29491 : 3276 chain whose second take is the `LAVALUMP2` ember burst — and the arm is issued with `variationIdx = −1`, a weighted random walk of the alias chain, where we resolved the chain head every time (215 emitters, every one at live = 0); and a resting substate re-arms itself through the model's completion callback, so the roll is re-taken every window for ever (~867 ms for the traps) — 45 emitters firing and 1299 live particles at +25 s, a standing field rather than a one-time flurry; 72 of 1582 GameObject models author such a chain (the fish schools, the AQ fireflies, the plague cauldrons, lanterns, mugs) and every one was playing take 1 of N; `benilla-extract goanimscan` censuses it

- the name cache persists to `benilla-config/cache/<realm>.tsv`, because the reference's `namecache.wdb` / `petnamecache.wdb` do and that is why it never sees the races we lost every time — unstabling a pet raised `Usage: SetText("text")` off an unresolved `UnitName("pet")`; the header carries magic, format, build, locale and realm and any mismatch discards the file (no checksum, no TTL: eviction is explicit only, via `SMSG_INVALIDATE_PLAYER`, decoded now and never sent by vmangos), negatives persist too, written on a 10 s debounce and at exit; a stable list also seeds the pet-name cache from the names it already carries
- `SMSG_NOTIFICATION` is the red UIErrorsFrame toast, not a chat line — `.gm on` printed twice because vmangos sends both a system message and a notification and both were rendered as chat; the stand-in dated from before the errors frame existed; `SMSG_AREA_TRIGGER_MESSAGE` moves with it on the yellow arm (its handler ends `xor edx,edx` — flag 0 — where the notification's is flag 1)
- the target frame's dead text is the GlobalString `DEAD` = "Dead" resolved through `text=` like the target-of-target frame, not the key typed into `SetText` in caps, and it takes `UnitIsConnected` so a disconnected player does not read as dead; a shipped-script sweep now refuses any key-shaped literal handed to a text sink; and the Help window is one click deep — Home's button opens the ticket text box, Auto-Unstuck sits beside it, and a ticket files as category 0, which a GM's queue names "Unknown" (a guard added days earlier refused 0 on reasoning from the enum rather than from the function that reads it)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- GM tickets, end to end: five request/answer pairs, the seven Help-window bindings, three events and `GMTicketCategory.dbc` — the ten categories `HelpFrame.lua` keys 1..10 live in a DBC nothing here had ever opened (the four `TICKET_TYPE` strings feed a dropdown 1.12 never gave a frame); the category is one byte on the wire (a u32 would shift the map id and position and file every ticket at a garbage spot), and `UPDATETEXT` carries it too, which vmangos stores and cmangos swallows as the first character of the text — faithful to the client, the divergence recorded
- the engine re-asks for the ticket after a create or update succeeds and on a status push (the ask opcode has three callers in the reference, two of them engine legs with no idempotence guard) — which is why the shipped FrameXML registers no handler for the three response opcodes and still repaints; without that leg the form stays a form for ten minutes; `UPDATE_GM_STATUS` is a signed passthrough (`0xFFFFFFFF` → −1), the five ticket verbs drain through one ordered queue because call order is wire order, and the Help micro button — drawn, hovering and a no-op since the micro menu landed — is live
- a typed wrong password reads the reference's long "check the spelling of the account name and password" (0x04 and 0x05 share one jump-table arm — the client cannot say "wrong password", and the lockout cmangos's header describes does not exist in the binary), unknown codes read "Disconnected from server" rather than "Authentication failed", and every realmd row of the old map was in the wrong one: the two login-status enums have two key tables and two dialog paths, and a server source can only ever verify the codes, never which string the client draws for them

- the stable master: `MSG_LIST_STABLED_PETS` both ways, the four mutations answered by one result byte, two slots priced from `StableSlotPrices.dbc` (500 and 50000 copper — the cap falls out of the data, corroborated by vmangos's `MAX_PET_STABLES` and the reference's `NUM_PET_STABLE_SLOTS`), rows seated by slot never by position (a petless hunter's list starts at a stabled row), slot 0 read from the wire because a dismissed pet has a row and no live unit, a re-list after every success because no result carries one, and `GetPetIcon` reading `CreatureFamily.dbc`'s icon column — which ships `Ability_Druid_CatForm` for both warlock families, asserted as shipped
- master loot: `CMSG_LOOT_MASTER_GIVE` (the slot is a byte here where the roll family's is a u32) and `SMSG_LOOT_MASTER_LIST`; the click gate is the wire's slot-type byte and nothing else — the reference never asks who the master looter is — so a MASTER row fires `OPEN_MASTER_LOOT_LIST` instead of a take and auto-loot skips every non-ALLOW row; the candidate array is bucketed by raid subgroup into blocks of five (a dense list would have filed every candidate under the wrong "Group N"), an unresolved name is nil so `UPDATE_MASTER_LOOT_LIST` has something to repaint, and a give re-checks the row is still MASTER before sending; found on the way: a master looter in another raid subgroup lit the crown on your own portrait
- `SetLootMethod` takes its third (threshold) argument; the reference's silent reset to Uncommon when it is absent is flagged and not adopted; the stable's model pane draws nothing yet — a stabled pet is a database row with no world entity, and a booth that renders from a bare display id is the next arc

- a unit's pick geometry is every model chained to it — body, held items, mount — one candidate per root resolving to the same unit, which is how the reference registers its pick (it walks the attachment tree and registers each model); Naxxramas' floating weapons could only be selected by their name plate before (no body, no candidate), and every armed unit gains its gear as clickable surface (our own body 12 → 21 tested parts); the broad phase stays the body's sphere, so a very long polearm on a small body is the named residual
- the selection ring's writer has two branches and we had transcribed one: a model whose stand box is degenerate (zero extent in x and y) rings at the literal 1.2 × scale — 2.7 yd under a trigger creature — instead of `sqrt(0.5·sqrt(dx²+dy²))` = 0 clamped to an invented 0.05 floor; both invented fallbacks are gone
- an HTML book image with no width/height is its art's texel square (one texel = one FrameXML unit, bit-for-bit the `<AbsDimension>` converter), not the rest of the page — *A Treatise on Military Ranks* drew its crest twice too big and stretched to the page's aspect; a texture-size oracle answers off the same decoder the renderer draws with, and an unfloated height-less `<IMG>` reserves its art's height in the flow; 797 shipped textures swept, exactly two zero-size axes move and neither is visible
- the dev debug panel killed the client on open with "Attachments have differing sample counts": Bevy's 2-D depth texture is keyed on the render target alone, so two Camera2ds on one window at different MSAA counts cannot both be valid, and the egui overlay camera had silently kept the default 4× after the player-UI camera went to Off; it now says `Msaa::Off`, and a preflight check reports any two 2-D cameras that disagree on a shared target, every run

- from inside a building the open-world water outside draws only through a doorway you can see, as terrain and trees already did — the Caverns of Time lake is gone from the cavern's ceiling: there was never a second visibility lane for open-world liquid (the old deferral said "it already has an authority"; a sweep of every visibility writer found none, so Bevy's frustum test was the lake's only gate), an ADT liquid layer is tagged exterior scene at spawn and the existing window cull owns it, one 33 yd chunk layer at a time — which the reference's bytes then confirmed is its unit too (`CChunkLiquid`, reachable only from the per-window walk, a sealed room's supply discarded not deferred); a building's own pool also rides the Map Objects toggle now, so switching buildings off no longer leaves the canals hanging in the air
- the Thunder Bluff elevators and every other Kalimdor lift were invisible for the whole session whenever you logged in on that continent: the lift arm snapshotted the current map one stage before the login frame had written it, so every lift compared itself against map 0 and hid as off-map — a lift carries no map at all now (it is only ever streamed to players standing on its own map), the off-map term stays for the boats it was written for, and `WOW_LIFT_CENSUS` prints each transport's arm state, cycle and visibility (13 transports, 11 hidden → 0)
- the lightning across Razorgore's room and Chain Lightning's mob-to-mob hop drew as hairlines: the chain renderer took each hop's cross-section as the world-horizontal perpendicular, where the reference takes `(−d.y, d.x, 0)` in eye space — the ribbon is view-plane aligned and keeps its authored 2 × halfWidth yards at every angle, so a long level beam watched from its own plane no longer thins to a line (the "a hop seen end-on genuinely collapses" note was wrong and is gone)
- a display that names a model builds even when it draws no batch — Naxxramas' Unholy Axe / Swords / Staff are an invisible stalker holding a Monster weapon, and the held weapon had nowhere to hang; the same gate was keeping 43 emitter-only GameObjects dark (house and blacksmith smoke, Ironforge's lava steam, Stratholme's embers, every firework), and a name sits at the authored PlayerName attachment instead of at the feet; and a vendor's foot-shuffle on turning to you now blends the whole way in and runs to its own clip window — a 500 ms step on 1100 of 1130 shipped shuffle records — where the latch had tested the gap left against a band sixty times too wide, and nothing ever ended the step

- the glue scene widens only as far as its art goes: none of the seven login dioramas is drawn wider than about 3:2 — measured per texel by `benilla-extract glueextent`, which rasterises every batch into the camera's own tan-space, painting where the reference's alpha-key test passes — so the frame zooms down to the reference's own 16:9 opening (never tighter) and pillarboxes past the aspect the art cannot fill, instead of showing the clear colour past the backdrop's slanted edges; 4:3 stays byte-identical
- the character screen opens on whoever you last logged in as: the reference's `lastCharacterIndex` CVar, written at Enter World and only there — clicks and arrow keys never touch it, which is what makes the value mean "last logged in" rather than "last clicked" — restored on every character-list rebuild and clamped into range
- spam-hovering tooltips stops costing 2 ms: two write sites gave up naming their node and re-derived the whole layout graph (1,812 µs against the ledger's 44, on 919 of 1,262 resolves) — the wrap pin now touches the one region it wrote, and re-pointing a tooltip at the button under the cursor retargets the node's edges in place instead of throwing the cached graph away
- two corrections off the project's first GPU-bound report (a Steam Deck at 94% GPU busy on 8.4 W of a 15 W budget, the memory-stall signature): `farclip` ships the reference's registered 350 instead of the clamp's 777 — the value also sizes terrain residency, so 777 streamed, held and drew 4.8× the area — and BLP textures upload WoW's own DXT blocks verbatim the way the reference does, instead of decoding to RGBA8 at 8× the bytes of DXT1; the terrain slider still reaches 777, and the lanes that read texels on the CPU (terrain arrays, the character-skin compositor) stay decoded and say why

- the missing bra: the underwear section's CharSections row spends BOTH of its texture columns and the body compositor read only the first — the pelvis — so a bare-chested female composited panties and then bare skin above them; the second column is torso art authored on all eight female race rows and no male row, which is how the male-only regression test stayed green over the missing half, and the new test is byte-exact — the composite's torso tile must equal the shipped BLP's mip 0 verbatim
- underwear is the tile's FALLBACK, not an under-layer: the reference tests a prefix of a tile's equipment cells and skips the underwear blit entirely when any is occupied, while cells past the prefix stack on top of an underwear that was allowed to draw — so a shirt or chest suppresses the bra, trousers the panties, but a belt never hides the panties and a plain tabard never hides the bra; benilla blitted underwear first and equipment over it, which coincides on most gear and is still the wrong law
- a robe outranks footwear on the lower-leg tile: the equipment stacking table is a DEFAULT that two of the eight layer choosers overrule, and the robe bit lifts a chest to cell 4 over a boot's 3, so sandals stop repainting a robe's hem; and `_U` outranks the gendered file — the reference probes the universal name first and patches the gender letter in only on a miss (43 of 7944 shipped basenames carry both, and on those the gendered art is dead), which closes the bare-skin ring a shorter `_F` pant file left below the knee; `benilla-extract charatlas` prints the blits in order with the file each region resolved to, reading the same `equip_blits` law the compositor walks
- a model widget edits its copy the way the reference does: fifteen attach ids reset off every duplicate — blood, breath, the nameplates, the spell hands, and the nocked arrow — and the hand grips arm from attachment occupancy, where ours sat hardcoded open under a comment claiming the pane sheaths its weapons (it never did); the character doll stops drawing a hunter's arrow and closes the hand around the bow, and the booth bake log now names its attach ids (`at=[2,35] grip=[false,true]`), which is also the reset's retest readout
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- the world-state readout — the top-centre counters a battleground or Silithus keeps up — takes the reference's real geometry: every icon those rows name is a sprite authored into the upper-left corner of a power-of-two canvas (`AllianceTower` is 16×16 of ink at (3,2) in a 32×32 file), nothing anywhere crops it, and the reference compensates geometrically — a 42×42 slot hung 6 units off the row's left edge with the label seated 10 above its centreline, taken as one system; our snug 20×20 box stripped exactly that compensation, so the art drew at half size floating away from its own `0/200` label — and an empty icon column now reserves its rect instead of sliding the text left, which straightens the readout's left edge
- the dynamic icon is a second slot, not a swap: `Icon` and `DynamicIcon` feed two different regions and shipped content never mixes them, so the flag is a 32×32 button off the row's right edge with an ADD-blend flash overlay pulsing 0.5 s in / 0.5 s out, lit only at `uiState == 2` — the flag-taken value; before, any non-zero state replaced the static art, which fires on the ordinary state 1 and hid a faction shield that should never have moved, and the pulse's alpha ramp is now pinned by a test, not just its art
- the dev cost pill yields the band: the readout is the game, the pill is scaffolding, and a stock 1.12 UI has no free corner to move house to — so it steps below whatever the readout draws, reading `WorldStateAlwaysUpFrame:GetBottom()` on its own 4 Hz cadence and only while it is drawing, rather than mirroring the frame's row pitch in Rust; the probe's cost is stated at the site (an edge read settles the layout — up to one graph solve, ~47 µs, four times a second)
- the Hearthglen ballista's bolt heads and shields stop flickering: a shine layer is a second batch over its base's own triangles, and ours split the pair across lanes — the base rode the retained lane's f64 CPU bake while the env-mapped, additive, no-depth-write shine stayed on the entity path's f32 GPU rotate, and a few ULPs between coplanar surfaces turns the depth test into a per-pixel coin flip re-rolled by every camera move; a batch now names the M2 skin section it draws, neither member of a shared section diverts into a consolidator (depths equal by construction), and a corpus census bounds the cost — 1,080 of 9,691 models draw a section more than once, 264 such sections across 221 `World\` doodads — with toggling pixels at the pin dropping 0.26% to 0.14%, matching the consolidators-off arm bit-for-bit
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- the colour picker can pick a colour: the hue disc and the value strip are engine-generated pixels (no BLP in the chain is a wheel), reproduced from the reference's own lattice — a hard-cut circle at a literal V = 1.0, the brightness marker moving over a disc that never dims
- chat windows move and resize once unlocked (Lock/Unlock Window on the tab menu; the reference's own 296×75 to 608×400 bounds), the border textures doubling as the grips, and the placement is remembered per character in benilla-config/layout; both windows ship locked, as 1.12's reset leaves them
- the minimap ping is back and pinned: one world point the engine draws, the click converted in the right unit (the old path was ~27% off at 1080p), and no 10-yard auto-clear — that was the gossip marker's rule, and walking to your own ping was deleting it
- the Lightwell can be clicked: a billboard card is a world root with no parent hop, so the hit resolved to nothing and the whole shaft published a null mouseover; casting a hunter shot chains Auto Shot through `Spell.dbc`'s modalNextSpell column (the mechanism nobody had read — the next snapshot carries the seam that makes it fire in play); tradeskill list rows stop tooltipping (that hover was ours, not Blizzard's), and OnMouseUp goes to the frame that took the press
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- the Lightwell has its shaft: a billboard card kept only the x of its bone's scale, so a bone animated non-uniformly (the well's 8.8 × 8.8 × 37.6 light column) collapsed into a squat blob drowning the bowl — 32 models and 49 bones in the corpus were losing their stretch the same way, mage Teleport's six bones at ×11 among them; `bbscan` grew the column that finds them
- Backstab, Garrote, Ambush, Cheap Shot, Shred, Ravage, Pounce and one Judgement start your auto-attack on the spell's hit, as the reference does — the "no spell carries that bit" the deferral rested on was a proof by absence over ten rows; the census now covers the shipped file's 36
- Quiver's range rung reads right: the interact-distance map held players only, so a mob "target" answered a constant at every distance; it holds every unit now, with the inspect refusal riding the entry
- the craft and tradeskill reagent slot is the reference's QuestItemTemplate (147×41, the name plate, the count on the icon) — its base template lives in the Blizzard addons, not FrameXML, which is why the first cut was hand-rolled
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- the world map's landmarks: city icons and the Eastern Plaguelands towers, from AreaPOI.dbc through the reference's own three gates (level flags, exploration, world state) — the tower rows are one per (tower, owner, state), so the server flipping a world state swaps which icon exists; and the always-up PvP readout ("Towers Controlled: n") over a new WorldStateUI.dbc loader, the init clearing the table on a zone change as the client does
- the character-select scene holds its authored 4:3 view box: the diagonal-FOV relation was fed the display's aspect, so every extra pixel of width came out of height (1.55× zoom at 21:9, head and feet gone) — now width grows and height never shrinks; the reference does the same and is wrong on the same panel
- a trail particle is stored in world space and drawn raw: Sprint's trail was welded to the chest bone (turn and it swings, run and it wobbles) because the trail was faked by subtracting translation inside a bone-local store; the correction machinery deleted itself, gravity is plain world down, and the emitters' live attach frame is retired
- the spellbook can shrink: `SMSG_REMOVED_SPELL` had no handler, so a talent wipe took the points back and left every rank drawn; and the chat dock's hover driver rides a frame the dock cannot hide, so selecting the Combat Log no longer freezes the tab alphas
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- the target-of-target frame and its option: 1.12's frame with its five display modes, fed one hop off the selected unit's own target field through the same read `/assist` runs, in four feeds (snapshot and transitions, the debuff buttons, the portrait booth, TargetUnit's click arm); ships off, as 1.12 does, on its own pair of saved globals
- talents can be unlearned again: the trainer's `MSG_TALENT_WIPE_CONFIRM` had no handler since the wipe flow was deferred, so the gossip line closed the menu and did nothing — the question is an NPC session (walking away retracts it), the popup shows the cost on the StaticPopup money variant, Accept answers it behind the client's own purse check
- Sprint's sparkles hang in the air behind you along the trail instead of collapsing into your torso: ride-vs-trail is the emitter's own file flag 0x10, not the host class — the finding wow-re returned eighteen days ago and nobody folded; the particle dump names the two flag bits it had been mis-reporting
- `/sleep` takes both movement masks (the strictest posture), correcting the day's sit gate which let you lie down on a lake bottom while `/sit` was refused; a Lua-driven selection (TargetUnit on an attackable token) starts the swing exactly as a click does, through the one select path

- the client synthesises its combat-log chat lines: 44 chat types over 34 GlobalString families from 7 packets, the reference's own four hops (classify both endpoints → chat type → string key → format), text resolved out of the player's own GlobalStrings — so damage meters and Quiver's TranqAnnouncer have something to parse; wow-re's byte round corrected six gates (owner is charmed-by then created-by, "party" is your subgroup, friend-or-foe is CanAttack, the range gate, the miss defaults, the damage-shield chat type)
- the collision prism follows the NATIVE display, not the rendered one: a druid in bear form keeps the druid's swim, splash and wade lines and a morph keeps the human's — worst divergence on shipped data 0.72 yd (tauren moonkin), the sign flipping by form
- the creature swim gate is on both legs: a unit that loses its flag mid-water is driven out of swim at any depth, as the reference drops a charmed creature to the seabed on the next tick
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- a plate-wearing player's incoming hits stop sounding like a punch on meat: the victim's impact column comes from the chest armor's material (plate, chain, else flesh), the clang follows the defending item's class and material (a wooden shield rings wood, an unarmed parry is silent), and Material.dbc's Flags column gets one home instead of three interim readings
- a creature swims only if the server said it may: the reference tests three unit flags before starting a swim, and a Shore Strider carries none, so it wades chest-deep with its legs working instead of gliding — the collision height the triage suspected was right to the float; the height also takes the reference's max() floor over the display scale
- a second nudge of the rotate arrow inside a half-run blend no longer stacks fades: the client refuses the snapshot past the halfway mark and lets the older pose finish on its own window
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- every connecting melee swing makes a sound: the reference splits its swing sound in two — a miss whoosh by handedness, and for a landed hit, parry, block, immune or deflect the WeaponSwingSounds2 kit picked by the swinging hand's weight class, a DBC column (ItemSubClass.WeaponSwingSize) this crate had carried unread; deflect and absorb get their real kits after three weeks as silent stubs
- a footfall is two sounds: the terrain step and the armor foley of your chest piece's material — chain, plate and leather rustle, cloth is silent by data; on the real 1.12.1 files every creature model's foley material is 0, so the foley you hear in the reference is your own, and that is what ships
- the paper doll's turn cross-fades at both ends instead of cutting — the reference plays every turn clip blended over the incoming clip's own authored blend time (0.25 s into a shuffle, 0.5 s back to Stand on HumanMale), and the outgoing clip keeps running under the fade rather than freezing, which corrects a "universal snapshot law" an earlier record had over-generalised; `m2seq` prints the blend column that settles such questions
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- the login theme no longer cuts off the instant the loading screen appears: it plays through the whole load and hands over on a 3 s fade once the world is ready, as the reference does — the stop sat on the same edge that raised the cover, and the reference never calls its music-stop on the enter-world path at all
- the mix had no headroom: every WoW sound is mastered to full scale, so five party-wide Fortitudes in one frame asked for 5× and clipped hard ("dirty, like a speaker breaking") — a stereo-linked look-ahead limiter now holds the output, a meter reports the peak the mix asked for, `SoundOutputLimiter 0` A/Bs it, and the 3D voice ceiling is named at 512 instead of inherited from the backend at 128
- a shaman's Rockbiter / Flametongue / Frostbrand / Windfury Weapon casts straight onto the equipped weapon on the press — no item cursor, no click — the reference's own `Attributes & 0x200` read; stones, oils and poisons still raise the cursor
- the nameplate category's player arm is pinned to the bytes (CanCooperate is faction-group-mask equality) and `/reaction` prints the one number it turns on: a GM-mode character plates as an enemy on a test realm because faction 35's mask is zero, exactly as 1.12 does
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- the auction house end to end: right-clicking an auctioneer opens Browse/Bids/Auctions on the server's reply — search, the category tree from your own DBCs, the reference's 50-a-page pager, multi-key sorting (directions corrected at the bytes), bid/buyout, the sell slot with deposit and duration, cancel with its fee popup; prices sit on the reference's own money-frame kit in lined-up columns, the twenty auction messages split refusals-red / outcomes-to-chat, and a won or sold auction reads as a proper mail receipt — the window's Lua re-worded in our own terms after the overlap ratchet caught the first cut leaning on the reference's text
- the PvP honor system whole: the Honor tab and the inspect page over a real wire model, with current rank and highest-ever rank correctly two different fields
- a day of reported fixes: WASD survives a /logout re-entry, addon settings save on a window close and Cmd+Q (exactly once — a mac close could fire the tail twice), clams open again, random-enchant items name themselves on every surface, the loot window's rows hold their seats with legible counts, idle players stop sinking through building floors, the shooter re-pulls between Auto Shots, portraits loosen ~19% to the client's own aspect-1.0 matrix, and big creatures thump the camera off the CameraShakes table
- character select clicks like 1.12 — captions whiten on hover, buttons fire on release, Humans face straight ahead off the stage bone's real yaw, the facing is per-character, and hunter/warlock pets stand beside you at their family-ramp size with their own emitters (the imp's flames), the Voidwalker's sequence-hidden shackles culled
- the smaller player-facing set: nameplate on/off rows in Options with the CanAttack category gate (emissaries stop plating), the bonus bar slides up with igBonusBarOpen, the camera's framing height glides on a shapeshift, the open letter evicts the centre seat, the far-band fog hull stops printing a pale horizon stripe at low view distance, the guide arrow is gold with per-source rim art, error text fades through its shadow too, and /convertraid converts the party
- README: the auction house and PvP honor move out of "not built yet"

- the Terrain Distance slider is back on Options → Graphics, in its 1.12 seat and range (177–777, live, no Apply) — and it now drives how much world is resident, not just how far you see: the streamer derives its resident and prefetch windows from farclip in the reference's own chunk units, pulling the ring in as you drag left and streaming it back one tile per frame as you drag right; the `WOW_TILE_RADIUS` env var, the debug panel's farclip slider and a dressed-up fog constant all retire into it
- ask a city guard for directions and the destination lands on your maps: `SMSG_GOSSIP_POI` becomes a red flag drawn through the same landmark path as towns and inns — an icon in place when near, competing for a rim arrow when off the edge — and the world map's landmark enumeration answers now, so the flag renders there too and names itself on hover
- the flag is one slot (new directions replace the last), drops itself within 10 yards of the destination, expires after the reference's own 480 seconds, and clears on any world entry; the rim-arrow rank rides the packet's own field, not a guessed constant

- opposite-faction speech garbles client-side now, the way 1.12.1 actually does it: the wire carries plaintext plus a language id, and the client substitutes per word — a word survives iff `SStrHash(word) % 300 < skill` (300 copies verbatim) — reimplemented from `0x49b560` over the LanguageWords pool, 35 golden vectors passing; a Horde character also stops seeing a spurious `[Orcish]` tag on every line of their own faction's chat, and the talk gesture reads the plaintext, not the garbled line
- a mid-session wgpu validation crash is gone: `NoIndirectDrawing` rides the camera's spawn instead of a per-frame sweep — 18 cameras were being flagged after spawn, and one whose first extraction beat the sweep latched indirect buffers forever; the census now reads zero late inserts with the direct-draw optimisation fully intact
- the 20-yard overhead-name cap is withdrawn: it read the V-key nameplate frame's law onto the overhead name lane, which the bytes show carries no distance term at all — a distant name just gets small; V-plates keep their 20 yd, which is correctly theirs
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- priest tooltips drop their bogus red lines ("Requires Shadowform" on Psychic Scream and Inner Fire, "Requires Spirit of Redemption" on Flash Heal): `Spell.dbc`'s Stances mask is an allow-list, not a requirement, when `AttributesEx2` bit 19 is set — 244 of the 522 masked spells carry the waiver, and the tooltip now consults the same gate the cast validator already did; Charge's "Requires Battle Stance" still asserts
- a hovering mover refuses the jump, silently — no packet, no toast — exactly as `CMovement::Jump` does: the HOVER test sits ahead of the swim select, so a levitating swimmer can't breach either; the old gate refused on ROOT only
- opening a lock gates on your skill, never your level: mining with 1 Mining no longer appears to open a 300 vein only to be bounced by the server — the client-side "Requires Mining ≥N" refusal fires with no packet sent, and the level term rides the skill block through the same clamp the reference uses
- the Mod/Mod2x fade was never a deviation — preset 5 IS the identity-lerp, byte-exact, five comment sites re-lawed with no behaviour change; and the garble word pool (`LanguageWords.dbc`) loads, the first hop of the language scramble that lands next
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- the Stormwind/Orgrimmar minimap lines are gone, at the cause: a group's boundary tile is authored 1.0 yd larger on that side alone, so touching groups overlap by 2 yd — without the bleed a LINEAR-filtered silhouette loses ≈0.38 texel at every abutment and the black clear reads through as a dashed line; with it, disc black goes 4.49% → 3.69% and no lines, inside the reference's own band
- the tile sampler stays LINEAR but filters in gamma space (`GL_SKIP_DECODE_EXT`, as the reference's trace has it) — a terrain underlay and a NEAREST sampler both reproduced the symptom and were both retracted as wrong once wow-re refuted them
- the canal-surface line in the world was a second defect: Stormwind's canal groups genuinely overlap (14,416 lattice points claimed wet twice), so the translucent sheet composited twice — the MLIQ `0x80` shared-tile gate now resolves each shared cell to one owner at load, pixel-identical and zero double-claimed points, not one wet point lost
- the interior composite is probeable headless now: `WOW_MM_PROBE` synthesises the minimap slot server-less, and an offline rebuilder reproduces the defect and the fix from the shipped art

- the loot kneel finally fires on a chest (the reported gap): a chest never sends `CMSG_LOOT`, so the client-local loot latch gains its second arm on `SMSG_SPELL_GO` with the loot response as an admission gate — you kneel before the window opens and hold it while it is up, like the reference
- the outdoor draw election lands: the 1.12 client elects every scene object per frame, and a unit behind you or in a room the portal flood can't see is neither drawn, animated nor particle-ticked — at the Goldshire pin drawn submeshes go 365 → 49 and live particles 569 → 138, camera stamp bit-identical; `WOW_NO_DRAW_ELECTION=1` reverts. No ms pricing yet — counts only, the machine was shared
- standing-NPC facing and docked transports go write-on-change instead of dirtying their transforms every frame
- the options window gets a ground: a black fill inside the rope drops the world's bleed-through onto the page from 40% to 12%, so the small text reads against snow and noon water

- WMO water stops running the terrain-liquid program: the material key names WHICH renderer a pool takes, and the two WMO arms land — Blackfathom Deeps' interior pools take their authored per-vertex opacity and the material's own body colour (34, 38, 57 there — the dark blue-grey in the reference shot) instead of coming out opaque and daylit on the zone's river swatch
- the exterior WMO arm bands at sub-17, not sub-16 — teal, not olive — which is what the Stormwind canals actually read as
- a hole corner's authored height no longer counts as a height, and a corpus-wide instrument reports which WMO water arm every pool takes
- the ADT/Felwood golden sweep is bit-identical: open-world water is provably untouched
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- the Tainted Scar sky reads its dark red overcast instead of almost pure white: a light-band row with no keyframes now commits the client's own constant — black for colour rows, +0.0 for scalars — instead of an invented neutral-daytime palette; Blasted Lands authors cloud density 0.85, so the cloud gradient IS the sky there, and sky pixels go `rgb(255,255,255)` → `rgb(145,55,25)` while the terrain control stays bit-identical and the blessed capture sweep holds MAE 0.000
- an NPC you interact with turns to face you and holds the bearing while the window is open — client-side, a per-frame facing-goal chain whose smoother halves the remaining angle each frame (π settles in 8–9 frames); the server sends nothing, and a patrolling guard or a creature in combat is unaffected
- sending a chat line plays the talk gesture, like every 1.12 client: a say reads its last byte (`?` question, `!` exclamation, else talk), a yell always shouts, a laugh-word laughs — five gestures resolved from Emotes.dbc flag bits, and talking stows a drawn weapon
- a standing capture viewpoint pins the Tainted Scar sky for regression
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- a fix16 animation key is signed: Zul'Farrak's troll gate was drawing its burnt twin inside the intact one (a −1.0 key read as +1.0, so the cull never fired) — 24 two-state models stop showing both states, 65 fade curves lose an over-bright tail
- a GameObject is placed by its quaternion, not its facing: the Ravenwind arm of the Feralas signpost comes down from mid-air onto the post, and 1,411 visible spawns — 123 of them chairs — take their authored tilt; the inspector shows it
- sitting in a chair holds: a jumpless fall puts nothing on the wire until it lands and heartbeats on the ordinary 500 ms deadline, so the stalled frames inside the chair's collider no longer send the moving flag that stood you back up; and the use cursor greys past the chair's own 3.0 yd reach
- README's "Not built yet" catches up: guilds, the pet bar, fishing, the dressing room, macros, key bindings and addons are in

- with no WoW install the client boots to the login screen instead of panicking on frame one: three world systems demanded install-gated resources their own startup never inserts
- `WOW_DATA=` — set and empty — means there is no install, in any build; the cursor says "no client data" once instead of thirty-one times
- the per-frame `bevy_egui pass output has not been prepared` ERROR is gone: a gated context runs an empty pass itself, so the idle lane keeps its savings and the log stays silent
- ECS diagnostics name their system in a dev build — no more `<Enable the debug feature to see the name>` in a panic

- Blackrock Mountain's lava bubbles animate at last: their sprite's flip-book channel was baked from a sequence they never play — UV and tint loops now bake per sequence, and a placement whose sequences disagree gets its own material
- a bonfire's logs were vanishing while its flame burned on: a body planted just under its own floor now claims the room above it, and the flame card and fire sound follow the body's cull instead of outliving it
- a WMO prop's animation host stops being cull-tested as an object in its own right
- WOW_TILE_RADIUS's doc now states its real default, 2, and why
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- UBRS's Rookery eggs hatch on approach now: the trap's despawn-anim packet was silently dropped and the entity freed the instant the destroy landed — the packet is parsed, and the reference's refcount pin holds the egg alive through its 2.7 s burst before it goes
- the AQ drakes' crawl is the server's doing: vmangos flies cyclic paths at walk speed, and the client's ride measures exact against the wire — the motion is inspectable now, down to a per-spline trace
- the chat bubble sits at the height 1.12 gives it: a latched constant from the model's stand box, replacing the posed-attachment anchor the RE just refuted
- the trigger-creature render gate folds back from the binary, byte citations corrected
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- the pale lines through the speech bubble were its backdrop atlas bleeding across its own slices under magnification; the slices now inset, verified per row against the real backdrop bytes
- a bubble that never appears can say why: all seven silent refusals report themselves under the bubble trace
- the invisible trigger creature goes invisible at last — there is no server flag to consume; its model is authored empty, and the black slab people kept meeting was our own placeholder cube. a display that names a model now draws exactly what that model builds, including nothing
- a census probe lists which streamed entities are standing as placeholder cubes, and on which displays

- an addon's own texture files resolve from its folder, TGA included, and SetTexture answers 1 or nil the way the client does — custom icons and skins draw
- runtime SetParent re-levels a frame by the client's strata law, and the raise survives hide-and-show round-trips — AtlasLoot layers right
- an addon that unregisters an event mid-fire no longer robs the next addon of the same event — Bagnon's per-character database fills again
- the Model widget's clock truncates milliseconds like the client's, and the no-text cast-bar law is confirmed at the bytes and narrowed to the cast bar alone
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- dialogs carry the reference's toplevel bit, so the stack-split window opens above Bagnon instead of behind it
- the failure line fills its blank — "Requires Blacksmith Hammer", not "Requires" — and Opening casts stop printing a label the spell itself marks "no text"
- the pet bar's Attack/Follow/Stay tooltips name their keybinding, and typed text reaches the focused frame through the client's own delivery walk
- AtlasLoot parses again: our Lua keeps 5.0's compatibility semicolon
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- a real skill-up prints its line; the lines the client keeps silent — class specs, racials, mounts — stay silent, off the game's own flag
- the stack-split dialog draws whole: its plate fills the window
- the four bag-bar buttons speak the reference's names all the way down, so Bagnon's overrides catch them and the backpack button lights while its window is open
- regions anchor at creation — the client's implicit-anchor law replaces a pile of draw-time fallbacks
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- an addon error shows the red script-error dialog the reference shows, and a runaway load loop can no longer freeze world entry
- food and drink show stack counts from the first login, and a paladin's aura bar lights the aura that is actually on
- logging out no longer erases the character from saved-bag addons: the player's absence is no data
- MPQ patches are discovered the way the client discovers them, and a slow arrival holds in place instead of falling through the world

- the zone-channel walk waits for real ground under the player, so login stops joining and leaving channels for zones you were never in
- the channel session ends with the character: a character switch no longer replays the old channels into the new session
- emoting at yourself goes out untargeted — "You wave.", exactly as the client sends it
- a body that is not in the scene casts no shadow, names nothing and cannot be clicked; and being attached to a body is not the same as being allowed to move it
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- a channel line renders in the channel family's color, not the grey notice row the client consults and throws away
- a text emote composes its sentence — gender and target picked from the game's own tables — so a /wave is a line in chat, not just an animation
- a FontString's `font=` resolves a font object by name and gates the whole block, `<Gradient>` tints the art it sits on, and buttons' state fonts read `font=` too — Bagnon's white boxes and bare stack counts are fixed
- the money frame sizes its coins from the digits themselves, so Bagnon's gold stops opening cramped

- lava and slime surfaces creep on the building path — the two liquid types the reference animates, and only those
- particle blend 1 is AlphaKey: the rock elemental throws tumbling chips instead of flat pale squares
- standing in a sealed room, outdoor creatures are never submitted to the scene at all — the reference's own election, not a hide
- an animation clip's arm frame fires no event keys, matching the client's walker rule frame for frame

- the terrain's impassable-chunk flag is parsed and fenced the way the binary fences it — all four sides, floored, rising only — so movement stops exactly where 1.12.1 stops
- a vertex normal authored as all zeros is legal content: the normalize is guarded, and the flat-black sleeves and skirts get their lighting back — a corpus sweep found 73 affected models nobody had filed
- Caverns of Time's asteroid belts turn: a rigid bone needs no rig
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- an animated doodad is culled by its authored box, not its bind pose — the one-yard bird flying a 64-yard circuit stops vanishing with the camera angle — and the fix survives the engine's own bound recompute
- the logon proof answers the server's version challenge instead of sending zeros, so a strict realmd stops rejecting benilla as a modified client
- two instruments land: a frame-by-frame visibility trace for one model, and a probe that classifies whether a realmd enforces the version check

- the Character window's third tab is in: faction rows under their headers, standing bars, the detail popup and the watch bar, at the reference's own anchors
- all four reputation opcodes parse byte-exact, the flag byte reads the way the client reads it, and a standing gain reveals the faction unless it is hidden
- an end-to-end golden drives live wire bytes through the game data to the exact visible row list
- the reference-code overlap is measured by an instrument instead of asserted — the start of a debt paid in full later in the day

- benilla loads real 1.12 addons from Interface/AddOns — TOC, XML and Lua through one loader, with per-addon saved variables, Bindings.xml and the lifecycle events addons expect
- both AddOns screens are in: the character-select list with per-addon enable state, and the ESC menu's in-game list
- the API surface is measured, not guessed — a corpus harness runs hundreds of real 1.12 addons and ranks exactly which globals, templates and verbs they demand
- the Lua dialect is the client's own, read off the binary — 5.0 semantics with the 1.12 additions, and UI source files are bytes, not UTF-8
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- a player build ships beside the dev one — dev chords and probe surfaces go dark, and a gate enforces what a player can still reach, by medium not by module
- the binary carries its own shaders and its shipped UI, finds the WoW folder by itself, and keeps its local state in one benilla-config folder
- the glue screens get a capture shutter, and the engine stops depending on the protocol crate

- timed quests get their countdown — a Quest Timers box under the minimap and a Time Remaining line in the quest log, kept against the server's own clock
- interiors go honest: footsteps stop crunching the terrain's snow through a building's floor, and tavern voices are authored dry, so the fake cave echo is gone
- snow is the reference's again — point-sprite flakes at the era's pixel size, and a spawn slab that leans into your run so a runner no longer outruns the field
- Stormwind stops drawing Elwynn through its walls, a looted quest crate's lid settles, cold zones puff visible breath, and the collect-quest toast fires only on a real advance
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- the step-up and step-down budgets are the client's own verified numbers, and the step regime is chosen by the blocking edge
- walking off a kerb follows the surface down instead of diving past the edge; steep ground supports you only while you are descending onto it
- a ride on a moving platform survives the ground snap, and a vertical wall no longer depends on a float's sign
- trainer and craft rows sort with the real client's own comparators, one per window — Beast Training lists a skill's ranks in ascending order again

- the Great Forge's lava stays drawn from every angle, and the chasm catwalk reads as a connected grate again
- music decoding and shader-compile bursts stop crowding the audio's lane, and the output buffer follows the device's real deadline
- the audio path grows its instruments: a mix tap to WAV, a starvation meter, a hardware overload listener
- trainer detail icons carry the reference's own tooltip
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- clicking a book in the world opens it and turns its pages: letters and world books share one reader
- the cursor's object rules are the client's own 31-row strategy table now, so decorative objects stop pretending to be usable
- trainer and tradeskill windows draw each row's icon by the reference's own law, and the trainer's filter dropdown toggles again
- water color follows the zone's light blend, so lakes stop snapping between area tints
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- the whole loop plays: the line arcs rod tip to bobber, the bite splashes with its own sound, and clicking the bobber reels in
- the verdicts read like 1.12: yellow "your fish got away" lines, the reel-in sound, the fishing loot window
- "You feel rested." prints on the transition, rest states come from the client's own Exhaustion table, and level 60 trades the XP strip for the max-level rail
- the Skills pane lists what the real client lists: the hidden rows, the sort, gray numberless single-rank lines
