Keys are named by the active layout, as 1.12.1 names them (#748)
Letter and punctuation keys were named by their US position, so on AZERTY the key labelled Z bound as W, and Ctrl+A sat on the key labelled Q. 1.12.1 on Windows names a key from the VK its layout produced. `VK_A`–`VK_Z` and digits are named as themselves, and other keys by `MapVirtualKeyA` (`0x42da39`); a key with no character is dropped (`0x42da49`). The EditBox's Ctrl chords switch on that same name (`0x77b1fb`). The Mac client names keys by `KeyTranslate`. Now: - Windows takes the same path through `MapVirtualKeyExW`. - The Mac names keys through the current layout, or the ASCII-capable layout it pairs with. - Linux follows one documented rule. - Bindings, Key Bindings capture and Ctrl/Cmd+A/C/X/V all follow the layout. - A character above U+00FF names its key, as a deviation. Tests cover AZERTY, Hebrew, Greek, Lithuanian, Turkish, Bulgarian, Hungarian and Dvorak names, layout switches and chords.

Arriving bodies composite off the main thread and show once dressed (#732)
A crowd of arriving players was composited in one frame, on the main thread, under the archive lock: 40 geared looks took 76–115 ms. In 1.12.1 an unforced full composite never waits on its section loads (`0x44b430`), and a unit whose first composite is pending is not drawn: ShouldRender `0x607da0` feeds the draw flag `0x710c50`, and the flag goes to the mount model when mounted. It appears dressed once the composite is done. Now an arriving body composites on the async pool, one task per look, reading outside the lock. The body, and its mount, are built once the atlas lands. Arriving now costs the main thread 0.26–0.45 ms for 40 looks. The appear fade runs from arrival, as `FadeTo` is armed at create. A re-dress, a rig heal and the glue and dressing-room previews stay in the frame. Baked NPC skins are unchanged.

doodad anim gate: a meshed host is drawn only while its fade sphere intersects the world camera's frustum, like a meshless one (#633)
A meshed doodad counted as drawn whenever one of its parts had a `Visibility` other than `Hidden`. Bevy's frustum culling writes only `ViewVisibility`, so a doodad behind the camera kept an `Inherited` part and went on animating and ticking its particles. The reference animates (`0x714260`) and ticks (`0x718960`) only the M2 scene's worklist, which `0x707680` builds. A doodad is admitted to that worklist only after the 6-plane frustum test `0x683700`. `gate_doodad_anim` now also tests a meshed host's fade sphere against the world camera's frustum. That sphere is the doodad's world bounding sphere, fixed at spawn. A meshless host already had the same test, and both branches now share one closure. The `Visibility` term stays, because it carries the fade, exterior and room verdicts. Test: `a_meshed_host_outside_the_frustum_is_parked`. Two meshed hosts with `Inherited` parts sit one behind the camera and one ahead of it. Only the host behind is parked.

terrain_stream: a placement or WMO prop whose model load failed is retired as resolved, so it stops counting as pending and the loading screen clears (#624)
A placement whose model load failed (a file missing from the chain, or a model the parser rejects) stayed unspawned for ever. The spawner treats `m2s.get(h) == None` as "still loading", the progress count holds it as pending, and `scene_ready` needs zero pending, so the loading screen never cleared. `spawn_loaded_placements` now first retires any unspawned placement (M2 or WMO root) or WMO prop whose handle's `LoadState` is `Failed`. A retired entry spawns nothing, is flagged spawned, and leaves `pending_spawns`, with one warning naming the path. That is the same fallback the WDT load already takes. Handles that are still loading keep waiting. WMO groups read inline in the WMO loader, so the root's state covers them. `a_failed_model_load_retires_the_placement` and `a_failed_prop_load_retires_the_prop` load unresolvable paths through a real `AssetServer`. Both fail with the failure check removed. Built and gated on macOS. What draws in place of a missing model stays #330.

Caps Lock remapped to Escape (X11 caps:escape) acts as Escape on Linux, as in the real client (#602)
- On Linux a key the keyboard layout remaps (X11's caps:escape) acts as the key it is remapped to, as in the real client - A layout-moved named key also acts as that key on Windows, where the reference reads the layout's virtual key; macOS keeps its physical table Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Co-Authored-By: Sam <samuv.eth@gmail.com> |

The stock video window's boxes are registered and ffx, ffxGlow, ffxDeath and gxMaximize work; benilla's options gain Spell Detail; load failures go to FrameXML.log (#585)
**#549: the stock video window's CVars.** Its check boxes, `ffx` and `gxRefresh` are registered at the reference's defaults. `pixelShaders` and `specular` ship as `overridden` "1" (`hwDetect`, `0x639a60`), and `gxFixLag` ships "1".
- `ffx`, `ffxGlow` and `ffxDeath` gate the full-screen effect passes every frame, as the reference's gate does (`0x6cd890`; `CFFXGlow` reads `ffxGlow` at `0x6cc5a8`, `CFFXDeath` reads `ffxDeath` at `0x6cdf10`).
- `gxMaximize` is latched. At the `RestartGx` commit it makes a windowed client borderless over the monitor, as the reference's window rebuild does (`0x58cf10`).
- The rest are registered with no effect, and each row says why: `useWeatherShaders` (snow's fallback leg is a separate CPU draw), `lod`, `M2UseShaders`, `M2UsePixelShaders`, `movieSubtitle`, `gxTripleBuffer`, `gxCursor`, `gxRefresh`, `DesktopGamma`.
- `cvars.rs` is split into the runtime and the table.
**#329: Spell Detail.** benilla's options window gains 1.12's Spell Detail Level slider on the Graphics page, over `spellEffectLevel` on the stock 0-2 grid.
**#583: `FrameXML.log`.** Load failures now go to `benilla-config/Logs/FrameXML.log`, as the reference's go to `Logs\FrameXML.log`, and no longer to chat.
- The log uses the reference's lines ("Couldn't open", "Error loading", "Couldn't parse XML in") and its banners.
- A UI load that reports something rewrites the file, and a runtime `LoadAddOn` appends to it (`0x490187`, `0x46aac0`).
Verified:
- New tests for each switch, the maximize latch, every box's stored value with no unknown-CVar warning, the Spell Detail row and the log file's rewrite and append, each failing on main.
- A region dump of the options window shows the new row, and the rows below it moved 35 px, and nothing else.
- `scripts/gates.sh` and `scripts/smoke.sh` are green.
- A live run unticked Full Screen Glow in the stock window, which turned the glow pass off and saved `ffxGlow = "0"`, and a missing addon file produced its four log lines.
Built on macOS; no platform seam touched.

The stock video options window opens, saves, restores defaults and cancels clean: its CVars are registered, spellEffectLevel drives the particle and shard rates, and the video pairs, frame enumeration and client queries are defined (#565)
The stock video options window (`OptionsFrame`, off the player's chain) now opens, saves, restores defaults and cancels with no Lua error, as on 1.12.1. - The CVars it reads are registered at the reference's defaults: `SmallCull` "0.04" (`0x68854a`), `shadowLevel` "1" (`0x6885bc`), `baseMip` "0" (`0x6887aa`), `DesktopGamma` "0" (`0x402d4d`), `spellEffectLevel` "2" (`0x688900`), plus `doodadAnim` and `texLodBias`, which the new getters read. `SetWorldDetail` keeps `SmallCull` in step (`0x488e56`), and the wrong comment that called the getter its only reader is gone. - `spellEffectLevel`'s handler (`0x689510`): the value is clamped to 0-2, "Spell effect level set to %d." is printed, the particle emission scalar is set to 0.33/0.66/1.0, and the shard emitter's rate follows the level (`0x6eb95e`). - The 21 functions #337 lists: the six video getter/setter pairs (`0x488ec0`-`0x489300`), `GetNumFrames`/`EnumerateFrames` in creation order (`0x705f00`, `0x705f60`), and the client queries, including `GetDebugStats` and `OpeningCinematic`'s empty `CMSG_OPENING_CINEMATIC` (0xf9, `0x48c8c9`). Verified: a headless test walks the stock window's 18 boxes and 9 sliders, then Okay, Defaults and Cancel, with no error (it fails on main at `OptionsFrame.lua:146`), plus unit tests for each binding and handler; 12 mutations each fail a test. A live run opened the window, saved, restored defaults and cancelled with no Lua error. `scripts/gates.sh` green. Built on macOS; no platform seam touched.

A dev build of a crate on top of benilla finds its install, benilla-config/ and .probe-identity in its own folder, which its build stamp hands in, not in cargo's checkout of benilla (#504)
A dev build finds its project folder, where its `WoW` link, `benilla-config/` and `.probe-identity` live, from its launcher, not from a benilla crate's own `CARGO_MANIFEST_DIR`. For a crate built on top of benilla, where benilla is a git dependency, that manifest dir is cargo's checkout of benilla. - `benilla_buildstamp::emit()` stamps `BENILLA_PROJECT_DIR`, the launcher's workspace root (the nearest folder up holding `Cargo.lock`), only when the launcher's `dev` feature is on. A player build stamps it empty and carries no source path. The shims pass it in as `BuildId::project_dir`. - `benilla_formats::project_folder` is the one home for the folder. Each entry point records the stamped folder once, before anything resolves from it. The install's dev rung, the state folder (which keeps its step from a linked worktree to the primary checkout) and the probe identity all read it. With nothing recorded (a test, an example, a tool) it is benilla's checkout, as before, and in a player build it is `None`. - Live `assets/ui` and the addon corpus stay on benilla's own source. - The example launcher's header now says a dev build of a crate on top keeps these in its own folder. - The comment above the stamp's resource names the build banner, the stamp's reader beside the panel footer.

A crate on top of benilla adds its own Bevy plugins through benilla_app::run_with, and a client started through it reads extended in its build line (#495)
A crate built on top of benilla now adds its own Bevy plugins through `benilla_app::run_with(build, extend)`: `extend` gets the client fully built, after the game plugins, the asset loaders and the `ExtractSchedule` executor flip, and before the probe fleet, which sees what it adds. `run` is `run_with` with nothing added, so the stock client is unchanged. - A client started through `run_with` carries `extended` in its build id (`BuildId::summary`), so the startup banner, the crash report and the debug panel's footer all say so, and a report from an extended client reads apart from stock. The entry point sets the flag; a launcher leaves it to `..Default::default()`. - `crates/benilla-app/examples/extended_launcher.rs` is a launcher with a plugin of its own, compiled by the gates. Its header is the shape a crate of its own copies: the manifest (benilla-app without default features and `dev` forwarded, the workspace's bevy, and the root's `[patch]` and `[profile.dev]`, which cargo reads from the root manifest only), the build script's stamp, and a `Cargo.lock` started from benilla's. - `tests/launcher_shape.rs` holds that documented manifest to the root `Cargo.toml` and the `benilla` launcher's, so a patch or profile added later cannot leave the documented shape building a client that is not benilla's. - `docs/CONTRIBUTING.md`: a feature 1.12.1 does not have lives in its own crate on top of benilla, started through `run_with`.

Comments and strings: the passes' leftovers, and a region's template matched as one name (#391)
The comment and string passes' last leftovers, and one lookup made to match the reference. **Comments that stated a wrong reference fact**, now stating the right one: - A cast failure clears the GCD, and a failed cooldown-on-event spell also drops its parked record (`0x6e73cc`). - `SetUnit` is `0x505d70`; `0x476cb0` is the component clone it reaches. - Interior sound follows the character, where the listener sits, not the camera. - Template inheritance re-runs `LoadXML` on the one object against each template (`0x76985c`), and reads `name` and `id` from the instance alone (`0x769770`). - On the ghost-to-alive edge the reference clears its corpse cache and sends nothing (`0x5ee990`, `0x491f50`). - The name cache has no high-bit miss. An empty-name answer evicts the record in the reference (`0x55f6f0`). - The combat-log deferred queue (`0xc4e208`) waits only on an item name. A unit name never waits. - A flying spline's segments are paced by curve length (`0x454320`, `0x453760`), not by chord length. - A stop within 3 yd of its stop point keeps the arrow nocked (`0x6019e4`). - A missile's sound id is at `CMissile+0x40`. - A nil or unresolved `AssistUnit` token is a gap against `0xb8` ERR_GENERIC_NO_TARGET, not a deviation. **Strings:** - Test, log and tool messages lose leftover history wording and placeholder labels. - The extractor's scan summaries describe the current tint and sequence-clock paths. - The smoke script's failure text carries no private numbers. **Line continuations:** twelve log, panic and assert strings get back the `\` continuations they had lost. Each printed a run of spaces mid-message. Fixes #106. **One lookup:** a region's `inherits=` is looked up as one verbatim name, matched case-insensitively (`0x6ee6f0`, `_strnicmp` at `0x6ee747`), as `framexml::expand` already did for frames. The gate before it split on commas and matched case-sensitively, so a texture or font string whose `inherits=` spelled its template in another case never received the template. `a_region_takes_a_mis_cased_template` fails before this change and passes after. **Tests:** the quest tests stop loading three FrameXML files that no quest file uses. **In game:** nothing changes for the stock UI. Log lines read as one sentence, and an addon texture that names its template in another case now gets it. Verified with `scripts/check.sh` on the changed crates, plus the loader and quest tests with the install present. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

String literals in benilla-ui, -world and -formats carry no record numbers (#299)
Part of #92, for `benilla-ui`, `benilla-world` and `benilla-formats`. - 88 string literals drop private record and bug numbers, the dates of private incidents, and the workspace's name for the maintainer. They are assert and panic texts, log and printout lines, the `--` comments of the Lua prelude and of test fixtures, and one Lua assert. Each keeps its fact in its own words. - Two test names lose their numbers: `burning_steppes_lava_builds_a_magma_surface_at_the_reported_pin` and `join_channel_by_name_answers_the_row_custom_and_nil_legs`. - A test-only event, `B271_PROBE`, is now `ERROR_PROBE` in the two crates that register and fire it. A fixture's error text in `benilla-app`'s `ui_script` tests drops its bug number, together with the assertion that reads it. - Doc comments that named a client function by a disassembler's label (`FUN_0068a830`) now give its address, in `benilla-formats`, `benilla-assets` and one `benilla-app` file. - Every literal change keeps each literal's line count, proven with comments stripped and every literal masked.

Comments in benilla-world: one line of fact each, no history, no record numbers (#121)
Part of #41: the comments of `benilla-world`, Rust and WGSL, are rewritten to the rule in `docs/METHOD.md`, which is what the code does and the reference fact behind it, in a line. 24,226 comment lines become 8,863. - **The mechanical strip.** The citations that were only a private record number go first, and each edit is shown to be a pure removal. - **Wrong facts corrected.** The rewrite corrects the comments that stated wrong facts. Among them: - `0x6b62e0` is the WMO group's liquid renderer, not a doodad drawer. - The reference creates a WMO's props once, when a group enters its streaming window (`0x698720` → `0x695aa0`). It then admits them each frame the portal walk visits the group (`0x685d70` → `0x6838f0`). The old text had them created per visible group. - The liquid query's comments now state the reference's order: the map-object leg first, then the ADT (`0x69b6d0`). They no longer call the Outdoors/Inside split a match. - The interior probe runs from the character, not the camera. - The reference lights ground clutter. The old comment said it draws unlit. - The model-particle "pool order" deviation was wrong. Each instance is its own mesh, depth-sorted every frame. - The reference's vertical field of view follows the aspect ratio (44.1° at 16:9). The comment now gives it beside our fixed 45°. - The effect shader's far wall is the live `farclip`, 177 to 777 yd, not a fixed 777 yd. - Dozens more turned up on the way: renamed or deleted items, docs sitting on the wrong item, stale counts and links. - **Deviation labels.** "Deviation:" now marks only a choice with a reason. An unbuilt behaviour says so plainly. - **Verification.** Every file strips to identical code, and `cargo fmt --check` is clean. Five second readers compared every file old against new, restored the facts the rewrite had dropped, and checked each new citation against the reference. Defects the rewrite surfaced outside the comments are filed as their own issues (#106, #114, #115, #116). The comments here state what the code does.

comments cite the reference by address, not by private note (#30)
Comments that pointed into the maintainer's private reverse-engineering notes (a note by name, a path, a section or finding id, the analysis's own name for a client function, a process word) now carry the fact itself, cited by the reference client's address, by vmangos file and line, or as "the reference". Nobody outside could follow those pointers. Comment text only, plus the test-assert and log strings that carried the same pointers. No claim changes: a comment the notes have since corrected keeps its wording here, and correcting it is separate work. The two reference generators, `scripts/gen-reference-globals.py` and `scripts/gen-reference-verb-events.py`, named the private notes' layout to find their inputs. They now take the input files as arguments (`--capture`, `--framexml`, `--names`, `--extents`, `--disasm`). Run on the same inputs, both write the committed tables row for row; only the two header lines that named the old environment variable change. Checked per file: - the code is identical: each file with its comments stripped compares equal before and after; a changed string literal is compared under a mask that proves only literal text moved and every literal kept its line count; - no client address the old text cited was dropped; - a second reviewer checked every added address against its derivation; - a detector for the notes' names, paths, ids, function names and process words finds none left; - `scripts/gates.sh` is green.

render: the hover highlight is the scene ambient, and unlit M2 parts take it
The 1.12 highlight is not a fixed 64/255 lift. SetHighlight samples the scene's committed ambient (read at 0x614576-0x6145bd), and every batch adds it to its colour before the final clamp, lit or unlit. 0xff404040 is only the fallback before a map's light loads. The highlight now follows the time of day, zone and weather: roughly (29, 60, 84)/255 at night to (104, 130, 154)/255 at noon, where it was always (64, 64, 64)/255. Unlit M2 batches in blend modes 0 to 4 now draw texel × clamp(tint·M2Color + highlight), the unlit program's c28 + c29. They took no highlight before. The reference holds the ambient sampled when a highlight begins; benilla samples it live, a marked deviation. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

a fresh clone gets the whole project, and the maintainer's tooling moves out
What a clone lacked: the gates went green with a thousand skipped tests and said nothing, every login script assumed a worktree-pool slot and its probe account, the client defaulted to the maintainer's account, a docker path and a home directory were in the code, the temp files broke on GNU coreutils, and two generators could only run against a sibling repo. Now the test gates print how many data-gated tests skipped and why; a scripted run logs in as the account its checkout declares in `.probe-identity` or as the three variables name, never a default, and the client refuses a scripted login on any other account; the event and message tables regenerate from vendored inputs, byte for byte; the docs state the real prerequisites. Out of the tree, into the maintainer's own tooling: the worktree pool, its hooks, the perf leg runner, the cross-platform compile and the Vulkan container leg — a way of working, and setups not every machine has. One hook stays: no writes into the install. Two tests that could never run are gone with their subject: the quest-timer geometry diff compared a copy of the window that no longer exists (and joined a chain path onto a folder, so it always skipped), and the FrameXML flag gate now reads the stock files off the player's own patch chain instead of an extracted folder only one machine had.

benilla is one repo: the working tree moves in, restructured
Until now this repo was an export of a private tree, pushed as squashed snapshots. From here on it is the working tree itself, and the private repo is archived. The root holds AGENTS.md and the Rust and GitHub files only. Everything an agent needs to orient is in docs/: METHOD.md (the rules and how the project is built, 123 lines, project method only), MAP.md (generated from the code at every land) and CONTRIBUTING.md (what gets in and how a change is judged). One skill, `probe`, holds the procedure for running the client unattended against the local server. Brought over because the project needs it: reference/ (the 1.12 name catalogues 34 source files read; the export failed its own tests without them), the gate chain and the pool (scripts/), the hooks that enforce the install rule and the worktree rule, the full .gitignore, the `cargo play` alias, and the original wording of eleven source files the export had reworded. Left out: the decision records (archived with the private repo), the export tooling, the operator's Discord and triage loop, the lab-laptop scripts and the instruments nothing references, which live outside the repo now. What read the records is gone from the tooling: no corpus lint, no records index, no `reserve` verb, no number-collision check. Three hooks are gone: fmt-at-commit and the file-size nudge were redundant with the gates, and the assets/ui guard is now a test (`assets_ui_does_not_grow`) that fails for everyone, not only for a Claude Code session. The remaining pool hooks stand down on a machine without a pool. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the trainer re-derives its states as the reference does
- the trainer window re-derives every service's state when your money, level, spells or talents change, instead of asking the server for a second list after a purchase (2333, 2336) - the backpack button reads the stock bag scan: with Bagnon holding the bags it stays unlit, as the reference leaves it (2332) - three unused dev switches retire, and fifteen others are named as instruments (2335) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the spell owns its cast ladder, and landing checks the other platforms
- the cast ladder moves under the spell: try, target bind, the usable walk and the refusal rungs live in one place, and the cast reply sends a chained cast itself (2330) - every server packet decodes through one exhaustive match, and an opcode-coverage script joins the reference's 387 handled opcodes against ours (2331) - a landing that touches a platform seam compiles Linux and Windows first, and the seven WMO portal-cull audits join the tests (2331) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the spell owns its state, and a malformed file is refused, not a crash
- the spell owns its lifecycle state: the in-flight cast, the local cancel, the cooldowns and the spell-modifier tables live in one module (2328) - a malformed MPQ, DBC, M2 or WDT file is refused instead of crashing the client, nine read sites bounded - a test that needs the install or the addon corpus fails instead of skipping when the data is there; the Bagnon render suite runs again (2329) - the dev crash injector is armed on every platform, and no instrument writes a path relative to the working directory Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

settings live in one registry, and the net drain starts to peel
- the CVars are one engine-side table that outlives every interface reload: a change fires its observer, the eight latched rows wait for RestartGx, and /console gains set, cvar_reset, cvar_default, cvarlist and help (2303) - every push into the interface runs in one feed phase after the net drain and before the tick, held by a structural test on the built schedule (2304) - subsystems own their packet handlers, dispatched in packet order; the auction house is the first family out of the 273-arm drain (2305) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the create screen's clouds move, and every battleground is entered
- the character-create and main-menu backdrop runs its material animation: the clouds drift on their 20, 30 and 40 second loops, which were seeded once and never sampled (2300) - Arathi Basin and Alterac Valley are entered and censused beside Warsong Gulch, the flag is picked up, and a match runs to its end (2296) - the animation variation roll is one clock-seeded stream, as the reference's C runtime is, not four streams seeded 0 (2299, 2301) - a cancelled channel never turns the bar red and a finished one closes on the bar's own clock, now pinned by tests that drive the real packet sequence (2284) - the field watch fires one edge per moved descriptor dword, from the merge that holds both sides (2297) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

- every unit, GameObject and held item runs its texture animation: air elementals, Ragnaros, the Ash'ari Crystal, Ironforge's forge lava, the Scourge rune circles and the Zul'Gurub forcefields were static (2295) - a GameObject whose animation slots disagree gets a material of its own: the Blood of Heroes pools bubble and the Freezing Trap's glow pulses (2295) - three sound kits with a doubled separator in their path were silent, the flight-path-discovered chime among them; the Ashbringer's lines stay silent, as they are in 1.12 (2294) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

meeting stones join, the claw trail draws, and the gun flashes
- a right-click on a meeting stone joins its queue: the stone's own join packet with its four refusals, and the stone you are queued at goes dark on the minimap frame (2283) - the druid's Swipe draws its claw trail: spell effects run their authored texture scroll, each on its own cast's clock (2282) - a gun's muzzle blast plays: the weapon model runs its own release animation, whose emitters were authored on the rifle and never had a clock (2281, 2286) - README: battlegrounds are the one big feature left on the roadmap, now that meeting stones are in Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Must be in names its form, and the whole client builds headless
- a cast refused for the wrong shapeshift form names it, "Must be in Cat Form", a two-form spell joined the reference's way, and the combat log reads its own buffer rather than the red line (2280, 2285) - three refusals that never had a combat-log line, totems, reagents and equipped item class, get one; a pet's form refusal names one form (2285) - the game's plugins are one group and the whole client builds headless in 0.12 s, so the schedule is a test subject: three one-shot consumers caught firing into the login drain are gated (2279) - the net drain's parameters are named bundles, not nested tuples (2279) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

a crash leaves a report, and the wire's counts are capped
- a panic writes benilla-config/Diagnostics/crash-<time>.txt with the build id, the location, a backtrace and the last 200 log lines, and names the file as its last line, so a bug report can attach it (2266) - every wire-count allocation hint is capped and the compressed update object reads through the cursor, so a malformed packet can no longer ask for gigabytes (2266) - the 23 in-world run conditions are one set, the 45 probe variables one registry, the install-gated tests say when they skip, and every gate is timed (2266) - one workspace-level lint allowance replaces 413 per-site attributes, and the decision corpus gets a lint in the gate (2266) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

your own name survives the first login, and four cold pipelines warm
- your character's own name no longer goes missing on the first login of a fresh start, so KLHThreatMeter stops erroring: the four "player" verbs read the login record, as the reference does (2260, 2261, 2263) - four pipelines that compiled live mid-play now warm under the loading screen: the model tile atlas's orthographic view, the minimap composite's quad, the glow combine pair and the indoor pool's liquid layout (2262, 2264) - a hoverable sign seats its tooltip where its template says, at the cursor or in the corner, not by its object type: Brill's signpost still follows the cursor (2259) - three warnings that fired when nothing was wrong are quiet, and the lane-coverage gates walk every crate instead of one (2264) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

every objective line shows, the detail follows the row, and 1.98 lints
- a quest objective that carries both a creature and an item is two lines in the quest log, as the reference's four passes enumerate it: Graverobbers shows its Embalming Ichor (2249) - the quest log's detail follows the live selection inside a frame, so a quest addon's log walk reads the right quest; Questie no longer files a chain quest under its shortest sibling (2247) - a UI tint change is not a material change: a run's colour rides the batch's instance tag, so the PlayerFrame glow no longer re-prepares a material every frame (2245) - the workspace lints clean on rustc 1.98: constant-size chunks become as_chunks, one slice fill, two unused globs - WOW_HOVER_PROBE aims the pick in a headless run, and the inspect card names the tooltip's ladder stage (2248, 2250) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the world draws inside the UI pass, and Questie's zone table fills
- the world is the first draw of the UI camera's main pass, not a pass before it: one render-pass boundary fewer, −0.9 ms of GPU on the Air at full render scale (2234) - the world-map catalog seeds at the VM's birth, before any addon file runs, so Questie's Astrolabe builds its zone table instead of raising on every path (2240) - the login's own tutorials wait for the interface, and a cross-map worldport fires PLAYER_LEAVING_WORLD, guarded by the reference's once-per-world latch (2232, 2235, 2239) - WOW_PROBE_BGQUEUE makes "log in while queued for a battleground" reproducible (2237) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

names are a session, Martin Fury fires, and Windows gets its clocks

a chest fades out, a held key survives an alt-tab, the blits go
- a looted chest fades out over two seconds on the reference's own smoothstep, from the alpha it is showing, instead of blinking away; every destroy and out-of-range exit takes the fade (2198, 2203) - opening a chest goes through the cast ladder, so mashing right-click no longer cancels the running cast bar with "Another action is in progress" (2199) - a held key resumes after an alt-tab: a repeat is a key we already have down, not the OS repeat bit, as the reference classifies it (2204) - both upscaling blits are skipped: the world's combine and the UI's gamma decode write their camera's target themselves, pixel-identical, and the costliest pass on the lab's RTX is gone (2206) - WOW_GPU_PASSES prints the journal's per-pass GPU split beside each row (2205) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

eighteen no-op writes gated, and the dead-gate finder

camera rows land in Options, brightness arrives, /reload loses nothing
- fourteen settings get their switch on the Options window: the Camera box from Follow Terrain and Head Bob to Water Collision and Smart Pivot, plus Attack on Assist, Auto Clear AFK, Auto Self Cast, Enhanced Tooltips, Player Guild Names and Show Target Damage (2180) - the Graphics page gains Weather Intensity, scaling rain, snow and mist, and Brightness, applied as a final pass over the whole finished frame; GetGamma and SetGamma answer in the slider's unit (2181, 2182) - hovering a disabled button fires no OnEnter, no OnLeave and no highlight, as the reference's does, so AtlasLoot's unset QuickLook buttons stop throwing a Lua error on every hover (2183) - a chat window dragged, resized, recoloured or renamed just before a /reload keeps the change, and the meeting stone's minimap icon comes back after a /reload while you are still queued (2184) - swimming at the surface, the camera stops snapping into your character every couple of seconds: the water leg of the camera trace is a bare ray, as the reference's is, so the boom stops on the plane rather than a probe radius short of it (2185) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the video options window goes stock, and water collision returns whole
- the reference's own video options window loads hidden, so pfUI's video skin and any addon reaching for its sliders and check buttons by name finds real frames; our own options window is BenillaOptionsFrame now, and ESC still opens it (2177) - GetScreenResolutions, GetCurrentResolution, SetScreenResolution, GetRefreshRates, GetVideoCaps, RestartGx and RestoreVideoDefaults answer off the monitor's own modes, so CT_Viewport loads clean (2177) - three of those verbs were corrected against a second read of the binary: GetRefreshRates answers nothing on a device with no rates, GetVideoCaps always gives a number for triple buffering, and RestoreVideoDefaults writes the ten rows the verb writes (2177) - the camera's water collision is back with both halves: the boom stops at a water surface, and a swimmer's camera keeps a constant 2/9 yd clearance over the waterline whatever the body underneath does (2179) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

dodge, parry and block answer, and the camera boom stops at the water

- pfUI's hdgraphic module runs: SetWorldDetail and GetWorldDetail are real verbs with the reference's three stops, and the near clip plane is a live setting at 0.100 yd rather than a frozen 0.111 (2163) - nameplates stop drawing a black box on hover or click, stop jittering a frame behind a moving creature, and a unit that walks into range later gets its plate; a unit with no level wears no skull, and the wheel zooms over a plate (2168) - the faint one-pixel box around every letter of a magnified overhead name is gone, each glyph now carrying its own transparent padding; interface text drawn at 1:1 is byte-identical (2169) - the camera's water collision comes back out for now: its pivot corridor dropped the camera a yard in one frame at head depth, which is the snapping reported around the surface while swimming (2165) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

a bad macro fails on its own, and script errors name their frame
- a macro with a Lua error fails on its own and lands in the script error channel instead of aborting the UI function that ran it; RunScript names its chunk by the source text, and a bad or empty argument is a quiet no-op (2136)
- a script error or debugstack frame names its handler as Frame:OnClick instead of a whole CreateFrame sentence, an inline <Script> block is no longer mistaken for the .lua beside it, and a handler's line numbers stop reading one too high (2136)
- GetAddOnInfo and its seven siblings raise the reference's own Usage and out-of-range messages, GetAddOnInfo("2") is the second addon, and assert(a, b) answers one value, as the client's Lua 5.0 does (2139)
- frillDensity and gxApi are real settings: pfUI's hdgraphic module reads world detail through frillDensity, its system tooltip names the live render backend, and the two spellings of the ground clutter knob stay one knob (2151)

zone channels survive a border crossing, and nameplates survive a login
- crossing a zone border prints one Changed Channel line instead of a leave and a join, and General and LocalDefense keep printing in the new zone; walking out of a capital keeps Trade's number and its registration instead of dropping it (2130) - outside a capital the channel numbers are the reference's: a fresh character holds 1 General, 2 Trade (suspended until a city) and 3 LocalDefense, so /2 reaches the same channel it does on the real client (2137) - logging into a character reads that character's zone, not the previous one's, so a login in the Eastern Plaguelands no longer joins and leaves Stormwind's channels first; a chat cache with General saved as a custom name gets its id back (2130) - the Show Tutorials option survives a /reload: it loaded unchecked and clicking it reset every dismissed tutorial account-wide; a world entry no longer switches off nameplates you had turned on (2131, 2132) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the loading tip draws, its backdrop holds, and indoor trails go warm

a refused login says why, the deep ocean darkens, and the blade trails
- a refused character login left the player on a loading screen with no world behind it and no way off — reported as sitting at character select with no message, and the symptom was worse than the report: `SMSG_CHARACTER_LOGIN_FAILED` (0x41) had a name and no parse arm, so the client never heard it, and it was not at character select when the refusal landed, because the IO thread sends `CMSG_PLAYER_LOGIN` and announces the connection in the same breath (the entry's head start, 0777), so `ClientState::InWorld` was already set and the loading cover was up waiting for a snap the server had just declined to send; the wire half parses the opcode into `ServerPacket::CharacterLoginFailed` / `SessionEvent::CharacterLoginFailed` and carries the byte RAW, since vmangos sends a bare `1` and mangos-classic its own `CharLoginFailReasons`, and a wire layer that interpreted it would be picking a server; the refusal is an entry being REVOKED, not a failure to enter — `Cycle::LoginRefused` runs the same `SessionEnd::LoggedOut` teardown a `/logout` does, the cover cuts to black, `back_on_login_refused` takes the select screen back with the relist's roster underneath, and clearing `pending_pick` is load-bearing: it is 0065's reconnect memory and the relist is auto-answered with it, so keeping it would re-enter the refused character forever from behind a black screen; the byte is a 1-BASED REASON INDEX, not a status code — wow-re read `OnCharLoginResult` (`0x5aad70`): `dec eax; cmp eax,5; ja` into a six-entry jump table mapping 1..=6 onto `CHAR_LOGIN_*` 0x3e/0x3f/0x40/0x42/0x43/0x44 and SKIPPING 0x41 `CHAR_LOGIN_FAILED`, reachable only as the default, so the tempting `0x3d + byte` is right for four rows and wrong for the rest; `char_login_refusal_text` is that table, resolved against the player's own `GlueStrings.lua` and asserted against it (vmangos's `1` therefore reads "World server is down" — the server's dialect, and what the reference would say); the select screen runs the shared `login::drive_dialog` rather than a second copy of the reference's one `GlueDialog`, which found two holes — `to_select_on_roster` closed ANY dialog on an arriving roster while the refusal's own relist produces one a second later, so it would have wiped the message (the original bug one layer up; now scoped to status/queued), and `preflight`'s descriptor latch outlived the session that armed it, announcing "the avatar never streamed in" from character select, now disarmed on any disconnect; a live probe against vmangos pins the three facts this rests on — the byte arrives as 0x01, the roster still serves after it, a retry enters the world on the same socket — and `WOW_REFUSE_LOGIN=1` refuses the first pick of a run by sending a non-player guid, the one guard that needs no server state, so a path no real account can stage by hand is walkable on demand (2071)
- the ocean's depth ramp was never a placeholder, and its deep row is darker than we drew it: four files called the ADT ocean's `V = byte/255` a stand-in "pending its own RE" — the director's report had the sea fading to deep colour about 6x too slowly — on the claim that ocean takes a non-LUT UV path via `0x68d890`, which is the MAGMA vert-fill, as `benilla_adt::LiquidVertex::texcoords` had said by that same address all along; the ocean fill is `0x68d690` and it reads a depth LUT exactly as the river fill `0x68d790` does, `0x68c4c0` building both side by side (`0xc81768 = min(d/42, 1)` river, `0xc7fcd8 = min(d/255, 1)` ocean), the two fills differing in exactly 3 of 246 bytes — one `fld` displacement — so there is no second ocean-only depth term, and wow-re's cross-check found `/255` bit-exact for all 256 entries; the divisors differ because the authored bytes do — a census over every MCLQ block on Azeroth + Kalimdor, each wet vertex's depth byte against its own geometric depth, reads a river at 8.96 byte/yd (reproducing the independently-measured ≈8.5, the control) and the sea at 1.72, 5.2x gentler, so `/255` saturates at ~148 yd and `/42` at ~4.7 yd, the same ramp in yards and not a 6x slower one, while 83.4% of ocean vertices carry byte 255 outright, so the open sea is authored fully deep and the ramp is only a shore band; a test pins both divisors against the raw MCLQ bytes (swapping the ocean onto `/42` fails it), `examples/liquid_depth_census` is the measurement with named shore-band pins, `WOW_OCEAN_DEPTH_DIV` is the A/B, and the alpha-ramp deferral closes with it — `0xc7fbc0`'s `1.6·(i/63)^8` is the sky glare falloff, bound at `0x685257` inside a branch proven dead, so the linear `127 + 2·row` alpha shipped was right; and the finding nobody asked for: `0x68a830` fills the 8×64 swatch as an exact integer accumulator in BYTE space, `row(i) = c0 + floor(i·(c1−c0)/64)`, so the ramp never reaches the deep endpoint (row 63 is ~98.4% of the way), and an ocean-only tail `[0x68a9c0, 0x68aa36)` — gated on last row AND selector 0, river being selector 1 — runs RGB→HSV, `V ×= 0.9` (`0x3f666666` at `0x8102ec`), HSV→RGB and forces that row's alpha to 255, which reduces to `floor(0.9·byte)` per channel (99.03% bit-exact over all 2^24 triples, max 1/255); byte 255 ⇒ `V = 1.0` ⇒ row 63 exactly, so the darkened row IS the open sea, and benilla had rendered deep ocean ~10% too bright over most of the water in the world — an error that survived every regression diff because no capture scenario holds any ocean; `liquid.wgsl`'s `swatch_row` / `swatch_at` port the accumulator, the LINEAR/LINEAR CLAMP sampling (so the darkening ramps in across the final 1/64 of V rather than stepping) and the ocean-only tail, on the ADT lane only — the WMO arms keep the plain lerp, their opacity being a different 256-entry ramp — pinned by a test against wow-re's published byte vectors (row 62 = 12,36,41; row 63 = 11,35,40, green one ABOVE the deep endpoint; after the tail 9,31,36) that also asserts the WGSL still carries the formula; rivers move at most 7/255 from the row quantization (2069, 2074)
- the weapon swing trail — `SpellVisualKit` CharProc type 8, which benilla had dropped on the floor with the rest of the dispatcher's unmodelled cases: 34 of 1772 kits carry it, 27 are reached from a live `Spell.dbc` chain, and 16 of those name NO emitter slot at all, so the ribbon is their entire visual — kit 324 alone reaches 218 spells (Heroic Strike, Overpower, Mortal Strike, Bloodthirst, Rend) and rendered nothing beyond the swing animation, with 506 (Revenge, Riposte, Mongoose Bite), 557 (Sunder Armor), 646 (Hamstring, Wing Clip), 399 (Sinister Strike), 822 (Garrote) and 823 (Feint, Disengage) in the same shape; the proc draws nothing — `0x60d80a` latches a packed colour and a duration on the unit, and the unit's next `PlayAnimation` (`0x5fe48e`, the fields' only reader) hands both to its two weapon-hand trail objects and clears the duration, so an arm fires exactly once and a second proc on a live trail RESETS its ring rather than stacking; each object rings 128 samples of its weapon model's `$WTB`/`$WTT` markers (455 of the 571 weapon models author both) and draws them as a strip that fades from opaque at the OLDEST end of the arc to ≈0 at the blade, the alpha being a clock and not just an opacity; `weapon_trail.rs` transcribes the arithmetic rather than approximating it — the truncating `_ftol` decode (not the small-int idiom every other integer param takes, which would yield colour 0 and no trail at all), `fadeStep`'s low-byte floor (`cmp al,1`, so a ≈768 ms hitch takes a floor of 1 instead of its own huge value), the alpha-derived termination, and the ring's writer/reader modulus mismatch (`& 127` stored, `% 127` read — shipped 5875 behaviour, reachable only by Whirlwind's 10 000 ms spin); the draw state was dispatched rather than guessed and the guess was wrong in three of seven places: the callback's six EGxRs writes say `0x07 = 2` (ordinary SRC_ALPHA / INV_SRC_ALPHA — additive is mode 3, the difference between a ribbon that whites out crossing itself and a coloured smear) and `0x10 = 0` (depth test OFF: the arc draws over the world and over the swinging character, never eaten by his own shoulder), so `EffectDrawSpec::no_depth_test` is a new pipeline-key bit on the shared effect lane with every other producer explicitly false, where the state had only existed as the global `WOW_PARTICLE_NODEPTH` debug lever; the third — lighting ON over a vertex format with no normal — is a verified state that is not yet a verified appearance and ships unlit as a named deviation with the question out; the consume edge is `AnimDriver::started_anim`, not the one-shot alone, because `0x5fe2f0` is the image's SINGLE animation entry point, locomotion included — a unit that simply starts running consumes the arm, which is how Charge (kit 44, 38 spells, anim id −1) trails at all; kit 324's 600 ms duration is on screen for 1250 ms at 60 Hz, since `fadeStep` is `trunc(dt·alpha/300)` and shrinks with the alpha it decays, twice wow-re's own estimate; the warm pass gets the depth-test-off pipeline as the one combination that ships (alpha, unlit, no rasterizer settle) rather than as another factor of the cross product — 36 more warm draws per camera for pipelines nothing asks for — so the first Heroic Strike does not compile one live; and `benilla-extract charprocs` grows the trail census that found the 34/27/16 split (2076)
- a zero injury column plays nothing: benilla walked down the wound-grunt family when the selected column was 0 — crushing to critical to ordinary — on a comment with no citation ("crushing rows are often 0 in data"), a true observation about the data and a false inference about the client; `0x623490` tests the selected id once (`0x6234e6 test ebx,ebx ; je 0x62350e`, the shared epilogue) and no fallback is even reachable — the row pointer dies at `0x6234e4`, so neither the bus pick `0x623b10` nor the play `0x458890` ever sees the row to re-read a column from, and the CGPlayer twin `0x62f880` is identical; it mattered because the class-2 chance roll had just landed beside it (2073): a crushing blow skips the roll (class 9 carries threshold 100) AND fell through to the ordinary kit, so it was louder than an ordinary hit on the same creature by two routes; `sound/combat.rs` now plays the selected column or nothing — crushing → column 5, critical → 4, ordinary → 3 — and a crushing blow on a creature with no crushing kit, which is most of the 406 rows (`Skeleton`, `Silithid`, `MountainGiant` among them), is silent, the reference's behaviour rather than an omission (2075)

unselectable units take no target, quieter wounds, a realm-list dialog
- a NOT_SELECTABLE unit takes no target: Stratholme's Baron Rivendare, pre-event, is spawned by vmangos with `UNIT_FLAG_NOT_SELECTABLE | UNIT_FLAG_SPAWNING`, and where the reference can neither damage nor target him benilla refused the damage (`CanAttack` already read bit 25) and took him as a target anyway — most visibly through the ATTACKERSTATEUPDATE self-defence acquire, which hands you your attacker the moment he opens on you with no click and no hover involved, and every other writer (left-click, right-click, TAB, `TargetUnit`/`/target`/`/assist`, the attack auto-acquire) had the same hole; the reference's gate is the third early-out of `SetSelection` `0x493540` (`0x4935ee`/`0x4935f3`): the resolved object's `+0x58` vcall to `0x60be60` `IsSelectable` = `!(UNIT_FIELD_FLAGS & 0x02000000) || UNIT_FIELD_CREATEDBY == your guid`, sitting BEFORE the dedup so a refusal is a complete no-op — no `CMSG_ATTACKSTOP`, no `CMSG_SET_SELECTION`, the target already in hand survives — and skipped entirely for an unresolved object, which is what keeps an out-of-range party member selectable off the roster; `target::relations::is_selectable` transcribes it whole, the CREATEDBY clause (your own totem stays clickable, somebody else's does not) and the xor-eax base stub every non-unit vtable carries at `+0x58` included, and `scan::commit` runs it first behind a mandatory `target_store` parameter so none of its eight call sites can forget a gate it does not compute; the hover is the SAME predicate at a second site, byte-verified by the wow-re round this dispatched: the hover grader `0x4828d0` calls slot 21 directly on the pick's winner at `0x482982`, and a false answer jumps to `0x482090(0,0)` + `ResetCursor` `0x523d30`, skipping the publisher `0x492890` that holds the mouseover globals' only two writers image-wide — so no tooltip, no cursor, no emissive brighten and no `mouseover` token, all from one rule; it is a GRADER, not a filter, and the difference is observable — a census over the pick itself (`0x480a50`, `0x480d90`, `0x713cb0`, `0x481190`, `0x480df0`) finds zero reads of the unit flags against four inside `CanAttack`, so the flagged unit wins the trace and is then thrown away, which `Hovered::refused` carries with the pick's distance kept so a trigger stalker in front of a chest takes the pick and the chest behind it does not inherit the mouseover; graded at `update_hover`'s publish rather than in a system of its own, because `drive_mouseover_tooltip` is ordered only after the net stage and a second system would have bought a one-frame name plate for a unit that must never have one; the V-plate suppression turns out to be load-bearing, since a plate hover publishes the mouseover directly (`0x7cb869 call 0x492890`) with no grading at all; and a left-click on a refused unit no longer clears what you had — the grader had dropped it into `select_on_click`'s arm beside "clicked the sky", where the reference's deselect lives in the terrain and NOTHING legs only: the down-edge pick `0x481f00` still found the object, so the release takes the object leg `0x4925d0` whose tail hits `SetSelection`'s early-out and changes nothing, the reasoning the corpse guard beside it already carried and which gets its first test here (2060) - three things a landed hit showed that the reference does not: a lootable corpse took blood, flinch, impact sounds and a floating number — the victim dispatcher `0x624530`, which owns every victim-side consequence of a swing, opens with `test byte [[victim+0x110]+0x224],1` (`UNIT_DYNAMIC_FLAGS` bit `0x1`) and jumps past all four — but the obvious fix, gating the victim, is wrong: benilla fans that dispatcher out into one message emitted on three occasions and the reference gates the DISPATCHER, and an image-wide census of the number emitter `0x6243e0` (exactly three call sites, zero tail-jumps, zero address-takes, earned against a positive control) puts `0x624566` inside the gate but the `SMSG_ATTACKSTOP` flush `0x624ea7` and the supersede flush `0x625893` outside it, so a lootable victim still floats a number for a superseded record; gated: the impact-tag dispatch (record still consumed first, as `0x6247d0` clears the GUIDs before calling) and the unresolved-attacker fallback `0x625a6d`; ungated: both flushes and the whiff slow-down, `0x624ca0` being its own function past the dispatcher's end; the flush's own predicate `0x625e40` reads an unnamed `[rec+0xac]` and stays unbuilt rather than guessed (2066); a crit played a full CombatCritical clip on a fighting unit — vmangos sends `SMSG_EMOTE(EMOTE_ONESHOT_WOUNDCRITICAL)` to the victim of every damaging crit (`Unit.cpp:1601`), `Emotes.dbc` resolves it to AnimID 10, and on the director's 90 s brawl trace that was 7 one-shots plus 9 fast-path entries on the warrior cutting its own swing (`fastpath cur=87 req=10`), 19 across all units; the reference's shared emote player `0x5fcd20` refuses at `0x5fcd96` when `0x60ecd0` is true — `UNIT_FIELD_FLAGS` bit `0x800` OR an auto-attack target `[+0xc48]` — and 1469 had built the flag half alone, dormant on vmangos (its `0x800` is `PET_IN_COMBAT`; a fighting player or creature carries `IN_COMBAT 0x80000`, a bit the client never tests), so `emote_anim::play_eligible` takes `engaged` and both producers, `SMSG_EMOTE` and the chat gesture, pass `Has<Engaged>` through one `PerformerQuery`: a crit on a fighting unit shows only as the wound overlay, and the wound trace lines carry `unit=` (2067); and an ending effect's particles popped — the teardown `0x6203e0` that both the completion callback and the same-slot replace reach hides the node and queues it rather than freeing it, and whether that is visible turned on a half no wow-re note covered, dispatched rather than assumed: the draw path's own admission test is the live-particle count (`0x7b4b46 mov eax,[esi+0x64]`) and the model enqueues onto two scene lists on two fields — MESH on the visible flag (`0x719207`), PARTICLE on the aggregate `CM2Model+0x3d8` (`0x71922c`), set while any particle lives and the same word `0x61f680` frees on — so for `Strike_Impact_Chest` a node destroyed at 0.10 s still shows ~30 particles at 0.20 s, gone by 0.334 s, and benilla cut up to 0.30 s of a 0.334 s effect; the three points where an effect ENDS — expiry, the same-slot replace, the reap's immediate destroy — now hand their emitters to the drain by the instance root they already carry as anchor (`drain_instance_emitters`, `ParticleEmitter::drain_on_owner_loss`) and the root still despawns, the reference dropping the mesh the same frame; flipped at the ending rather than set at spawn because the other way an owner vanishes is the model dtor (gear change, display swap, stream-out), where the reference frees synchronously and draining that case is what stranded ghost clouds in the air (0826/0833), and the collateral path still frees (2070) - a creature whose template carries `DO_NOT_PLAY_WOUND_ANIM` takes no flinch and no parry, and the wound grunt is rolled: the creature template's `type_flags` carries the bit at `0x8`, benilla consumed the two bits either side — `0x10 NO_FACTION_TOOLTIP` in the unit tooltip, `0x20 MORE_AUDIBLE` in the parked-event gate — with neither reader naming its bit, and `wound.rs` carried the gap in a doc comment claiming "no template cache" that had been false since the cache landed; the reference refuses the flinch inside `0x60ea70` itself (`0x60ea9f`, so every trigger is covered) through the getter `0x6125f0`, whose null-record leg fails OPEN, so `names::type_flags` names all eight bits (a call site could say `& 0x10` and look right — that is what let it be wrong) and the wound trigger refuses a flagged victim as its first gate, keyed off the descriptor's `OBJECT_FIELD_ENTRY` the way `0x60b160` keys the cache; animation only, since no creature-type mechanism suppresses the blood spurt — a flagged creature bleeds (2068); the vocal half was dispatched rather than built, because wow-re's published "makes no pain sound" called the flag's second consumer `0x60ec00` a pain-sound dispatcher while three of its own notes said otherwise, and the cross-check came back with all seven questions VERIFIED: `0x60ec00` is an ANIMATION dispatcher — `GetWeapon(0,0)`, the mainhand subclass through the 18-entry remap `0x60ec98` and jump table `0x60ec84` to Parry1H/2H/2HL/Unarmed, handed to `0x5fe2f0` = `PlayAnimation`, whose 40 call sites push literals in `[16, 202]` and which reaches no sound band — so the flag gates two animations and no sound, and the parry now rides it (victimState 3 only; Dodge 30 and Block 24 reach `PlayAnimation` directly from `0x624a90`/`0x624a74`, and our subclass map agrees with the raw remap on all 18 rows); nothing suppresses the injury vocal — of the fourteen functions in the wound-vocal chain the only one dereferencing `[unit+0xb30]` is `0x623b70`, testing bit 5 for a bus — but the ordinary grunt IS rolled: `0x623490` runs the class chance roll at `0x8626d4[2] = 60` for a creature and `0x86424c[2] = 30` for a player, by the VICTIM's type, while classes 3 (critical) and 9 (crushing) carry 100 and always sound, so `INJURY_CHANCE_CREATURE`/`INJURY_CHANCE_PLAYER` thin the grunt under sustained melee where benilla had played all three every time — 40 grunts per 100 too many on a creature, 70 on a player — and a crushing blow's class 9 punches through a server-pushed object sound's suppression, which stops at class 8 (`0x6234bb`/`0x6234bf`/`0x6234c4`); a pet gets a template record at last, since `NameCache::resolve` routes a `HIGHGUID_PET` guid to the pet-NAME query and a tamed unit had none — 18 of the 471 flagged templates on the world DB carry a `pet_family` — so the create arm also asks by the descriptor's entry, the reference's own key (`[[unit+8]+0xc]`); 2068's claim that templates are queried lazily is corrected, the create arm having warmed the cache for every streamed unit all along, at the reference's own timing (`0x60afb0` → `0x60b157`, on the create path) rather than as the convenience its comment called it; and the skeletons of the report still flinch, and should — neither vmangos nor cmangos flags them (2 of 62 templates in each), `Skeleton.m2` authors CombatWound and CombatCritical, so what changes for them is the grunt's rate, not its existence (2073) - the realm list is a dialog, not a screen: the first live run of 2056's realm selection reported no hover highlight, Cancel and the X throwing you out of the session instead of back to character select, the character screen gone from behind it, and then a login that hung on "Connecting" forever with nothing in the log — three of the four are one mistake, since `GlueScreenInfo` names all seven glue screens and `RealmList` is not among them: `RealmList.xml` is a `frameStrata="DIALOG"` frame with a full-screen 75%-black quad that `Show()`s over whatever screen is up and `RealmList_OnCancel` only `Hide()`s it, while 2056 had built it as a `ClientState`, so Cancel had to pick somewhere to go, the screen behind was torn down, and — the one that mattered — a roster arriving while that state was up moved nothing because `to_select_on_roster` only ever leaves `Login`; Okay looked inert while the IO thread walked on to the character park, the next Cancel answered a park two ahead of the thread, and every later login queued behind a `pick_rx.recv()` that was never coming, silently, reproduced with a scripted walk before anything changed; the realm list is a `shown` flag now, served in place by the character park over `select!` — refreshing on the realmd socket the cycle still holds, since `RequestRealmList` (`0x46b8d0`) begins `COP_GET_REALMS` on a socket closed only at world entry (`0x46b70c`) and only `ConnectToRealm` (`0x46b210`) drops the world connection — and leaving only when a realm is picked, `HeldLogon` and the resumed cycle gone with it; Cancel sends one `Abandon` and the park that hears it decides, which is the reference's own shape: `RealmListDialogCancelled` (`0x46ed20` → `0x46b810`) compares the current screen name against "login" and returns immediately when it differs, tail-jumping `CLoginMgr::Cancel` (`0x5b3320`) only from the login screen; the hover was never a realm-list oversight — `Hilight` was "the owning screen's to drive", four screens drove it, two folding selection into the same expression and one scoped so the `GlueCloseButton` X on every panel could never light, and the realm list made five by having none — so one owner now, `glue_hilights`, lit by hover or `LockHighlight` and walking UP to the nearest enclosing button because a modal dialog's root is itself a button, with `art_swaps`, `glue_button_visuals`, `glue_hilights` and `sync_outlines` registered once in `GluePlugin` instead of hand-copied per screen; the IO thread names each park it stops at, a logout comes back through the same park a first login does, so the policy ladder puts the realm the player is currently on ahead of the persisted `realmName`, which benilla writes only at world entry, the reproduction is now a smoke leg (Change Realm → Okay → Change Realm → Cancel → Okay against the live server) that fails on the old code by construction, and two divergences are stated: the X abandons like Cancel because our thread parks on the question rather than polling for it, and Change Realm shows the list already in hand at once rather than waiting a round trip behind a status dialog (2072) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

the fire layer sounds, heartbeats blend, and freezes refuse the flinch
- the burning city was silent: the director, at a Stratholme pin (map 329, `3471.91 -3366.89 136.85`), reported the burning-building flame layer missing — on the reference it swells as you approach a building — and that is the ambient emitter pool's signature exactly, one channel per sound id positioned at whichever of its emitters is nearest the listener (1867): 88 placements of `StratholmeFireSmokeEmberM/S.m2`, WMO props of `stratholme_b.wmo` with zero render batches, each authoring one `$DSL(6437)` StratholmeFireSmokeEmberSLoop; measured at the pin, the pool's four channels were held by UndeadCampfireSmall / CauldronLoop / TorchLoop / SlimeWaterfall, every one past its own DistanceCutoff, 0 sounding, the fire the fifth entitled entry and withheld by the cap, on a frame reporting 1,004 parked anim hosts each still holding a registration; two independent defects behind one line: (1) `doodad_events::fire_doodad_anim_events` scanned every resident host — no distance, frustum or portal gate — while the four channels are arbitrated by ascending entry index, claim order, so a surplus registration is not harmless but silence; the reference's event scan `0x719370` is reached only from `0x7074b0`'s walk of `[CM2Scene+0x20]`, a worklist emptied every frame (`0x707680`) and refilled by `0x710b90(model, 1)` from the terrain drain `0x683f80`, which walks only the bucket the scene-walk cull `0x683700` appended to — frustum, horizon occlusion, and the radius-tiered horizontal fade whose `alpha ≤ 0` is a hard cutoff — so a culled doodad's `$DSL` never fires and it never takes one of the pool's 32 entries; our prose — at four sites — had read wow-re's "linkage" as "loaded", and the scanner now honours `DoodadAnimHost::active`, benilla's one spelling of that membership; which made the pin MORE silent, because `gate_doodad_anim`'s meshless branch built its own `EmitterFade { instance: None, room: None }` on the reasoning that a particles-only model is not a building's prop — Stratholme's fire is 88 of them — so it fell to `ExteriorGate::admits_sphere`, and a sealed room is `Windows([])`, which admits nothing; a placement now has ONE draw-set gate, built once by `spawn::fx::emitter_fade` and handed to its emitters, ribbons, glow lights and anim host alike (a transport's props pass `None` and get `EmitterFade::sphere`, the single spelling of the bare form), so a meshless WMO prop's bones, particles and sound freeze and resume together under its building's portal PVS — which wow-re then CONFIRMED: a WMO `MODD` prop takes the same drain as an ADT `MDDF` prop (`0x684155`), behind a per-frame portal gate (`0x6838f0` runs only for the groups the traversal reaches); (2) the RE round that fix dispatched came back with a correction: we counted the cap on ENTITLEMENT, an out-of-range entry keeping its slot because FMOD was supposedly still playing it attenuated to nothing, and the binary says otherwise — `0x461b40` returns `[+0xE04] != 0 && 0x7a5810(ch) && !0x7a5870(ch)`, and `0x7a5870` is bit `0x100000` of `[ch+0x38]`, the DistanceCutoff verdict maintained by a second system the pump never names: `0x7a5ca0` registers the channel into a cull list only when the cutoff is non-zero, and `0x7a5000`, run immediately before `FSOUND_Update`, stops it out of range and re-issues `FSOUND_Stream_PlayEx` back in — so a far, inaudible ambience holds none of the four, neither does one whose start failed, and a cutoff of 0 is never range-culled at all; `admitted()` becomes `cap_step()`, one step of the reference's own fold over ascending entry index — Skip / Service / Retire — with the counter advanced only by a channel read back live from the mixer (`source_kit_playing`), and the pump may service up to all 32 entries looking for four live ones, which is what keeps an out-of-range ambience positioned to start the instant it comes into range; the census names WHICH ids the cap withheld, an edge like any other — "1 withheld" was a count, and *which* is the only question a missing-layer report asks — and reports three states, `serviced [out of range]` costing the cap nothing versus `withheld`, never reached; and the event scan forgets its cursor across a park, since `0x719370`'s window is one frame wide off a clock that never stops and has no persisted cursor, so a culled doodad's missed markers are lost, never replayed — carrying the memory would have burst every `$DSO`/`$SND` the park skipped; retested at the pin: five entitled entries, four out of range, 6437 SOUNDING, nothing withheld, hosts in the animate set 28 → 184, and the log shows the entry claimed by a distant fire coming into view then following to the nearest record 150 ms later — the swell the director described; the Goldshire forge control is unchanged, BellowIN/BellowOut alternating through one entry, 1 sounding; `$DSO`/`$SND` one-shots from culled doodads stop too, equally faithful; and the variation re-roll stays ungated on purpose — gating it would re-roll a whole field's lightning on the frame you turned back, a look for the director to weigh (2059, 2065)
- a poured particle is born already aged: the spawn kernels' third argument is the SUBSTEP dt, not the lifespan — the burst loop pushes a literal 0 (`0x7b5600`), both continuous loops push dt (`0x7b5779` interpolated, `0x7b57e2` plain), and the kernels store `particle.age = U01 · w` (`0x7b88c4`/`0x7b88c7`, byte-identical across the plane, sphere and spline kernels) — and benilla birthed everything at 0.0, so the births sharing one frame arrived in lockstep; `birth_age` now seeds a poured particle at a random fraction of the frame it was born in, which is why a steady stream does not pulse at the frame rate, while a burst's N particles keep one clock and age as one body; read as the LIFESPAN instead, `w` would scatter a burst over `[0, lifespan)` — half the integrated brightness, half the mean radius, half every steady pool's population — and an audit here proposed exactly that reading, which wow-re's own measured count (N = rate × lifespan = 300, confirmed) had already ruled out and the bytes refute, so `a_burst_births_every_particle_at_age_zero` pins it; one named approximation: the reference substeps at a hard 0.1 s (`[0x81d828]`), bounding its dt by construction, and benilla does not substep, so the frame delta is clamped at 0.1 s in `birth_age` instead — identical below 0.1 s, which is every frame that is not a hitch
- the wound-flinch gate is the freeze node, and the swing report stays open: the director's report of a warrior in a many-mob brawl whose swings read as more suppressed and cut short by incoming impacts than the reference's had survived a full re-read of the victim side with every mechanism matching, and one reference gate benilla did not model had turned up on the way — the wound trigger `0x60ea70` refuses the flinch while any CEffect node on the victim's `+0xb4` list carries `+0x2c & 0x4` (`0x60eab6`); wow-re's cross-check pinned the bit's one setter image-wide, `0x6201d0`, the node the kit CharProc applier `0x60d7c0` creates for CharProcType 11: it saves the owner's playback rates (mount root, body key-bone 4, body root), overrides them with `CharParamZero` via `0x712910` and ORs the bit in, and the teardown `0x6203e0` restores them — the freeze node 0889 already models as `AuraNodes::head_anim_rate`, seen from the other end; while it lives every flinch is refused — melee, spell, missile, `$HIT`; in shipped data 17 kits carry a proc 11, 15 at rate 0.0, all referenced only as state kits — Freezing Trap, Ice Block, Petrify, Entangle, web wrap, the frozen-in-place family, and not the stuns (kits 349 / 33 carry none) — and the gate is the node's presence, kit 3071's rate of 1.0 closing it exactly like 0.0; a level-60 warrior brawl spawns none of them — Bloodrage, Berserker Rage, Enrage, Death Wish, Battle Shout, Demoralizing Shout, Sunder Armor, Heroic Strike, Rend, an incoming Renew or Power Word: Shield, the creature Strike/Cleave/Thunderclap family, a mage's Frost Nova (state kit 285) — so this gate does not explain the report; the lead is dead, verified, and the report stays open with the move trace (`WOW_MOVE_TRACE_TAGS=fct,anim`) now carrying every wound trigger, evict and expire beside every swing play and fast-path, so the per-swing flinch count and timing can be read off one run instead of guessed at; the driver refuses the wound while `AuraNodes::head_anim_rate()` is `Some` — the node's presence, not its rate — traced as `wound trigger id= REFUSED (a proc-11 rate node is attached)`; `KitPlay::wound` runs the kit tail's `[8,10]` branch for a discrete play and not for the impact hand-off's state stage (`0x60f383`: a state kit runs the base recompute only); 2058's `0x6ea280` hostility-classifier decode is CONFIRMED (`Targets & 0x100 → 1`, `& 0x80 → 2`, else the per-effect implicit-target tables `0x6ea338`/`0x6ea378`); tests: a rate-0 node and a rate-1.0 node both refuse the flinch and no node flinches, an instant harmful `SMSG_SPELL_GO` lays exactly one wound per hit target with a state kit naming CombatWound adding nothing, a helpful one lays none, and a missile arrival wounds regardless of hostility; named and not done: an effect model's own `$HIT` event flinching the unit it is attached to (`0x61f6f0`), and the reflect impact on the caster (`0x6e8cb0`) (2063)
- tag `0x26` is the teleport's, not the heartbeat's: wow-re's cross-check of the relay family — one client handler `0x603bb0` → `OnUnitMoveEvent 0x601580`, thirty opcodes — confirmed 2061's teleport claim and corrected an attribution this client had rested on since 0601: the queued move-event node's tag that `0x619030` (facing interp) and `0x619090` (position reconcile) both bail on (`cmp [eax+0xc], 0x26` at `0x61904b`) belongs to `MSG_MOVE_TELEPORT`, and the heartbeat's is `0x25`; benilla had excluded the heartbeat from both blends for two years and blended the teleport — which it never parsed, so nothing contradicted it; checked on this side before acting: `push 0x26` occurs at exactly two addresses in the movement region, `0x6186bd` and `0x618736`, inside functions whose only callers are `0x602f90` and `0x602fb0`, and `0x602fb0`'s other branch pushes `0xc7` = `MSG_MOVE_TELEPORT_ACK`; it was most wrong exactly where it mattered most — the heartbeat is the ~500 ms pulse a moving player sends, and a mover running straight sends nothing else carrying position (0617), so a watched player running in a straight line had their position snapped at 2 Hz instead of blended, a second cause, of our own, for the "2 Hz height staircase" 0626/1545 were built around (the ground clamp stays: our floor and the server's genuinely differ, and no blend fixes a missing collider); `reconciles()` is now `verb != Teleport`, and the three opcode-derived booleans this was heading toward are one closed `RelayVerb` enum — `Pose` / `Heartbeat` / `Teleport` / `Root(bool)` — so every receiver has to say what it does with each — nothing had forced a reader to enumerate what an opcode could mean, which is how the tag mistake lived as long as it did; two more corrections from the same cross-check: `MSG_MOVE_ROOT`/`MSG_MOVE_UNROOT` are opcode-authoritative — after the merge the client runs `SetRoot 0x7c7340` (`or 0x1000`, then the one-shot motion wipe `& 0xffe07f00`) or `ClearRoot 0x7c7370` unconditionally, the flags word getting no vote; vmangos always sends a word that already agrees (`MovementHandler.cpp:1070`), so it changes nothing today and stops the root depending on the server continuing to be careful — and a relayed flags word is MERGED, not assigned (`new = old ^ ((old ^ wire) & 0x75a07dff)` at `0x618de7`), which the self lane already did and the remote lane did not; still consequence-free, since nothing reads the one client-owned bit, ON_TRANSPORT, off `RemoteMotion::flags`, but lifted to `move_flags::merge_server_authored` so both lanes share one implementation; pinned both ways — the teleport skips, Heartbeat / Pose / Root all arm, and a deliberately contradictory `MSG_MOVE_ROOT` whose word says running roots the mover and wipes the direction bits anyway; open from the same round: the transport re-anchor (`0x618b30 → 0x7c6900`), which benilla reaches by a different route and is worth proving equivalent, and `MovementInfo +0x04`, which the reference neither parses nor zeroes and whose readers were not censused (2064)
