the social window, the escape menu, and items that work from the bar
- The social window: friends, ignore and `/who`, in the reference's own two-level arrangement with its inner tabs and per-row right-click menus. The lists ride the real wire — guid-keyed with no names, resolved through the name cache, and capped at 50 friends / 25 ignores because those are the client's own caps — and the ignore list does its actual job: an ignored speaker's chat is dropped silently, a whisper additionally tells the sender, and a duel challenge is auto-declined. Guild ships as a disabled tab, which is what a guildless character sees. - The escape menu: ESC's last rung finally opens something. The game menu lands at the reference's own size and ladder, and leaving works — logout and quit with the server owning the clock (instant at an inn, refused in combat, or the 20-second countdown), narrated by the real camp/quit dialogs. While the menu holds the center nothing else opens, and the bag bar greys out under it. - Items on the action bar act like items. An equipped trinket was a dead button; the reference's use law is two stages — not equippable means use, equippable and already worn means use in place — over its exact search order (equipment first, then the bags, then the backpack, then the keyring; never the bank). What can go on the bar is now the reference's own two filters, byte-read: an item with an on-use spell or one you can equip, and no passive spells — and dropping a passive there speaks the real client's own line, "You can't put a passive ability in the action bar." - A quest-starter item opens its quest instead of "The item was not found." The question goes to the item's own guid, never through item-use — which the server refuses for every one of the 215 quest-starter items — and refusing the quest says what the client says, then closes the window. - For the toolbox: a pixel pick that reports everything under the cursor all the way back, a lens that says which render phase a draw landed in, and switches that separate "discarded" from "lost depth" from "never drawn" — built while cornering a flickering tent, whose fix ships in the next snapshot.

the micro menu, the ping meter, and the PvP flag
- The main menu bar's two empty recesses fill. The micro menu — the eight arched buttons: character, spellbook, talents, quest log, socials, world map, main menu, help — sits in the dark panel between the page arrows and the bags, transcribed from the reference's own layout: the character button wears your portrait, a button holds itself down while its panel is up, and the talent button appears at level 10. The latency meter fills the one slot the bar art leaves transparent for exactly it, tinted green/yellow/red on the reference's 300/600 ms thresholds and drawn UNDER the bar art, seen through its window, the way 1.12 actually does it. The socials and main-menu buttons find their panels one snapshot later; help still waits. - The UI explains itself on hover: 1.12 ships its detailed two-line tooltips ON — a FrameXML default, not the opt-in extra it is often remembered as — so the micro buttons, your own portrait, the XP bar, the five bag buttons and the ping meter all answer a hover with the reference's own explanations. - The PvP flag, end to end: crossed swords on the player, target and party frames, driven by the two descriptor bits the wire actually carries, and `/pvp` speaks — the yellow toast plus the system chat line, the OFF sentence being the one that warns the flag lingers for five minutes. It really does linger: turning it off waits out the server's timer, which looks like a bug and is the reference. - Quest markers stopped freezing. The grey `!` over a questgiver above your level goes gold the moment you ding, an NPC re-entering view is asked afresh instead of wearing a session-old answer, and the marker drops when the questgiver bit goes off — the re-ask triggers mirror the reference's own set, plus one named addition (your own level changing). - Water and heights: swimming downhill no longer bounces between swim and fall ten times a second — the surface line is a two-sided constraint, so the swimmer settles with the river instead of being left behind by it. And collision height is per-unit now, read from the unit's own model: a gnome used to swim with a third of a yard of water over her head because five depth lines were quoting a human's number. - A round of pixel honesty in text and chat: the newest chat line no longer wears a wider drop shadow than every line above it (shadows move in whole pixels now), keeps its descenders, and hover boxes stop painting over the chat body. The chat input's history browse survives programmatic edits, a failed script chunk warns instead of vanishing, and recall deepens to 64 lines. Idle animation got honest too: a model's idle is Stand resolved through its own lookup table — never file order, which had the duel flag bobbing on its spawn clip — and an armed idle is culled on the box its animation authors, not the bind pose, so the flag stops vanishing at most camera angles.
