sacred_re.dll/.exe/.ini/.log/_crash files are now sacredK.*; inventory saves
with the old "sacred_re.inventory" format id still load.

- Options window in three tabs; the auto-pickup settings move to Beute;
sliders move with their page; black sides like the save game screen.
- Tastenbelegung: every binding settable (click, press key; Esc cancels,
Backspace unbinds), "Alle zurücksetzen" as a game button, saved on OK.
- Potions bindable (default unbound), named by the game's potion texts; the
game's own potion hotkeys are off; bar tooltips show the bound key.
- Map (M), overview map (Tab, held) and labels (Alt, held) bindable; the
game's own M / Tab / Alt handling is switched off.
- Save game key calls the game's save window code instead of a posted key.
- Teleportationstrank: fixed text replacement from startup (also the
Ausdauertrank items, potion kind 5 as well).

- The shot end's button check (0x4def52) answers "held" for the auto-attack
target, like the melee swing end.
- An art order counts as started when the art's cooldown rises, so bow arts
and arts ordered mid-swing hand over to auto-attack.
- re/crash.cpp: a watchdog writes sacred_re_hang.dmp when the engine tick
stops for 10 s while the game is in front.

- autoattack: when the target dies, the nearest enemy within close range
(contact distance + a step) takes over; after an art the hero auto-attacks
if the art was melee (walked up / cast close by), or ranged with a ranged
weapon, or ranged with an enemy already in melee range; measured action
codes and weapon classes in game/engine/orders.h
- chainlightning: jumps reach Blitzschlag's cast range (20 ray segments of
30, the art code's hit check) via the shared NearestHostile search
- guards: burning bone render hook had the wrong signature (device plus a
4x4 matrix by value, ret 0x44) and corrupted the stack when fire arrows hit
- crash reports follow the ebp chain before the raw stack scan

- re/crash: unhandled exceptions write sacred_re_crash.txt (module+offset,
registers, return addresses on the stack) and a minidump; the game's own
filter is chained behind ours
- guards: cParticleSystem_burningBone::Render (0x774e10) skips drawing when
given a null device (crash at sacred.exe+0x374e39 after Esc while walking)

- Skill bar: no art selection; slot 0 is the right-click art, keys 0-6 cast
slots directly; cooldown labels in exact seconds; slot 0 set apart.
- Arts regenerate on their own (casting no longer refills the group).
- Auto-attack after targeting or casting at a hostile creature, at the speed
of a held button.
- Auras can be recast while active (renew, no second visual).
- Blicke wie Klingen hits every enemy in range, physical, with life leech.
- Blitzschlag steers the game's own chain: 3 + level/5 hits, 1 + level/10
chains, re-hits a lone enemy.
- Weapon sets: click selects, drag only from the selected set; the leftmost
set is clickable (signed hit tests).
- Esc closes open windows before opening the game menu.
- HUD: standalone buttons and texts are centred.
- Record cache sized for widened views (town lag while walking).
- Shared game code: orders, fx events, text drawing, cooldowns, effects.

cUI_Taskbar2's slot arrays move behind the (enlarged) object with room
for 7 each; all instructions addressing them, the relative accesses
between the two arrays, the slot loops and the count clamp are patched
from tables in game/addresses.h (belt loops untouched). Slots 6 / 7
unlock at levels 45 / 65; AssignArtToSlot accepts slots up to 6. Slot
keys call the taskbar's selection directly (honouring COMBINE_SLOTS).
Shared code: re::PatchAll / PatchInstructionByte for patch tables,
game/engine/objects.h for object, RTTI and kernel calls, slot-hook
templates in skillslots.cpp.

While W/A/S/D are held, the controlled creature gets a plain walk order every
engine tick toward its position plus the pressed screen direction, as the
mouse does while its button is held (every mouse event re-sends a walk to the
cursor point); releasing sends the target-less stop order of a released mouse
button. W/A/S/D key events are swallowed before the hotkeys see them; their
old actions move to G (action slot 3), V (pick up nearby) and K (save game
window) for now, configurable in [wasd].
docs/wasd.md: order format, measured mouse behaviour, hotkey map.
docs/todo.md: better pathfinder; final bindings for the moved hotkeys.
re::ConfigString for string settings.

New mods/hud: while a HUD window renders, screen-space vertices passed to
D3D7 DrawPrimitive/DrawIndexedPrimitive are shifted by dx; while it handles
an event, the UI event point (category 5, +0x48) is shifted by -dx. Applied
to cUI_Taskbar2 (centred) and cUI_Mercenary (portrait + health, right edge).
3D belt items line up without help (their projection is screen-centred).
re::AttachRuntimeHook hooks functions only known at runtime (COM methods).

- mods/widescreen: redirect the world view's reads of the 1024.0/768.0
constants and the 3D ortho extents to our variables; render size =
monitor; relocate the world view's tile draw list (1750 entries, no
bounds check) into an enlarged object (16384 entries).
- mods/dxwrapper: route DirectDraw through dxwrapper (Dd7to9, D3D9) since
Windows' D3D7 cannot render to targets larger than 2048; fix the game's
device info GUID pointer that dxwrapper's enumeration leaves invalid.
Pinned release fetched by CMake (hash-checked), installed next to the DLL.
- Main menu (UI thread) and loading screen render in a 1024x768 viewport
and are presented scaled ("classic" layout); in-game uses the full size.
- re/patch: verified code patches (operand redirect, push immediates,
displacements) and startup hooks; build.ps1/CMake download fixes.
In-game view untested yet; HUD still at the top-left.

- Launcher (sacred_re.exe) starts sacred.exe with sacred_re.dll injected
via Detours; the DLL verifies the Sacred Gold 2.28 build before hooking.
- Hook framework: RE_HOOK for game addresses, RE_HOOK_API for Windows
APIs, per-hook enable/disable in sacred_re.ini, sacred_re.log.
- Game code: Log (0x66f1c0) hooked, CmdLineHasFlag (0x813140) rewritten.
- Borderless mod: forces windowed mode, covers the monitor, scales the
1024x768 image aspect-correct, remaps mouse input, keeps running in the
background with keyboard input hidden while unfocused.
- CMake/Ninja/MSVC x86 build, VS Code setup, disasm tool, function map.
