AddMainQuestItem refused every new main quest item once the list held an
entry with script id 0 (scripts give such items); the Goldbeeren of quest
402 were picked up and lost. The script id test is patched out.
Quest variables are bit fields (op 0x44 sets a bit): the quest giver
restart now writes the values directly, 0 and 1 (available) for the
variable named after the quest.

A follower that fell more than 40 cells behind was removed when its sector
was switched off, and the game ran its death label (the husband of "Die
Sklaven der Orks"). Every 500 ms followers of the local hero that far away
are teleported to him with cCreature::Teleport.

The landing point is noted from the grenade's cEventFX 0x96 at launch; a
translucent red circle with the explosion radius (shared ImpactRadius) is
drawn after the world's ground, under the objects, and ends when that
grenade's impact gathers its targets. Ground -> screen projection in
game/engine/worldview.h.

The game drew 2x2 px red dots per visited-sector neighbour (0x6c8580), in
64-tile steps and unrelated to the explored mask. Replaced by lines traced
from the explored cells (2x2 tiles), simplified to 0.75 px, rebuilt while
the map is open when the masks change.

Escorts lost their place on the hero's follower list after a load, so
quest checks like the one in "Furchtbares Verbrechen" failed; they are
added back once after loading (town NPCs that tag along briefly are left
out). Restarted quests stay available (flag 1), which their giver's dialog
and accepting them need. Quest givers are read from the quest scripts:
when a running quest's giver dies, the quest restarts and the giver is
spawned again at her start; an accepted quest without its giver is repaired
on load. Notes on the script format and opcodes in docs/quests.md.

A dialog's quest comes from the game's script labels ("Dialog:<name>",
quest at +0x48). When that quest is done and not in progress, IsQuestNpc
answers false (blue on the minimap) and the idle action's type check
skips the turn towards the hero.

The zoom button never set the zoom point, so it zoomed on the last
magnifier point (or 0,0). While the button's zoom is on, the point is put on
the hero's map pixel every engine tick; the held mouse button still zooms on
the mouse. game::UiWindow / UiWindowShown shared from windows.h.

The game's list builder runs on a reordered copy of the book: the story, then
one section per region (id blocks of 100 grouped by the region their quests
lie in, named as the megamap names regions), unknown quests as "???", the
rest joined to the nearest area, undiscovered counts. Act tabs hidden, page
turning kept. "Erledigte anzeigen" row toggles completed quests
([questbook] ShowCompleted).

- Megamap / TAB map zoomed view: heroes' markers and the other symbols
(integer 200h centre immediates) follow the view's centre.
- Map reveal: the hero's reveal stamp scaled 10x (mods/mapreveal.cpp,
docs/map-reveal.md); creatures on the zoomed map shown within 10x the
sight range.
- Load / save progress screen drawn on the rock background across the full
width, the picture blended over it (mods/loadingscreen.cpp); the classic
1024x768 frame is gone.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- The game's cheater detection killed the hero ("Hase!") whenever its
protected stat mirror was stale; the mirror is now refreshed from the hero
whenever it is unlocked, stream checks never punish, loadHero no longer
sets the cheater flag (docs/anticheat.md).
- saveHero wrote the items of weapon sets 1-5 only: its loop runs over all 7
sets, so sets 6-7 survive a world loading the hero from the hero file.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Spielen hero panel shows the selected hero in 3D (cUI_NetGranny,
game/ui/granny.h).
- All menu screens draw on the options' rock wall; the main menu's 1024
frame is drawn centred over it, mouse and cursor shifted to match.
- The main menu's and options' own pictures and the main menu's 3D scene
are left out (textures hidden by surface, scene call redirected).
- Logo top left: FX_SACREDLOGO.TGA, drawn added.
- Game textures by name (game/ui/texture.h), textured and added quads.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Esc menu: "Exportieren" became "Laden"; it opens the load window, always
in load mode. In a game every world loads (the current one reloads); a
"(neu)" world stops the game (cCommand_armaStop) and starts the new one
without the main menu. The character being played cannot be deleted.
- Silent autosave every sacredK.ini [characters] AutosaveMinutes (default
10, 0 = off) into the character's autosave file.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- cUI_EscMenu::BuildLines hook: the UI_ESC_EXPORT line is removed, the
lines below move up, the window shrinks by one line, centred.
- game/ui/control.h: control vector helpers (ControlsIn, RemoveControl,
SetControlAt, DeleteControl, ControlNamed), used by the main menu too.
- The export screen is unreachable now: charexport.cpp and
docs/char-export.md deleted. Spielen screen redesign noted in todo.md.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- One world per campaign and difficulty in a character file (sections
ancaria<d> / underworld<d>; old world<d> renamed when read). Difficulty
unlocks by the shared hero's story completions (hero header +0xed..),
shared by both campaigns.
- Main menu: "Kampagne Ancaria", "Kampagne Underworld" and "Spielstaende"
become "Spielen" (mods/mainmenu.cpp). The load window lists all
characters, the world dialog offers both campaigns, "Neuer Charakter"
asks for the campaign and opens character creation.
- Character window: no Underworld import mode (new Underworld heroes, all
classes, slots light up), no "Importieren"; load window without
"Speichern".
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- CharacterNN.sacredK holds the shared hero and one world per difficulty,
plus an autosave file; the game works in save\characters\_work
- Load window: one row per character, a difficulty dialog on Laden
(worlds, newer autosaves, "(neu)" starts a new game with the shared
hero), Umbenennen, delete moves the character to characters\deleted
- The world keeps its own portals and hero position when the shared hero
is put on
- K and the Esc menu's "Speichern" save directly (quicksave path)
- One-time migration of the old save rows and exported heroes, after a
backup
- Startup no longer hangs in the game's foreground loop (0x810af0)
- Text overrides apply to our own text ids too; shared cUI_Button2
helpers in game/ui/button.h

Per category (Gold, Tränke, white/blue/yellow/brown/green items) one of
Löschen (loot deleted at once), Ignorieren (pickup key leaves it), Standard,
Immer anzeigen (label without the labels key). Replaces the game's
PICKUPAUTO choice; settings in [loot] of sacredK.ini. docs/loot-filter.md.
Also ignore MSYS *.stackdump files.

- 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).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- cUI_Character (export) and cUI_Savegame draw inside the centred 1024x768
frame (viewport) with the render target beside it cleared black; the
export screen's 3D heroes were stretched across the wide viewport, away
from their labels and hit areas.
- Export screen shows the game's erase button for an occupied slot and
reloads the heroes after a delete. Overwriting was already the game's
own path once clicks hit the right slot.
- game/ui/control.h: shared show/hide for cUI_Control2.

Arts are objects (game::Art) built from the game's definitions: name,
launch type, damage source, regeneration group and the skills' art lists.
The tooltip gets one line per effect of a skill or attribute, sorted by
size; unlearned class skills are greyed out at 0%. Weapon arts list only
the damage types the held weapon deals and the held weapon's skill.
Tooltip line wrap ignores colour codes; art tooltips wrap wider.
Blitzschlag's tooltip rewrite becomes a tooltip filter.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The keys rewrite the hero's path every cCreature::Update: one segment
along the held direction, the facing set to it, sliding along blocked
cells. Starting from idle runs the game's own Think steps at once
(StartPendingWalk, WalkAction) instead of waiting up to 110 ms, so
weapon switches no longer stop the walk. Stops wait 50 ms after the
keys are released, and a stop in progress is taken back when keys are
held again. Names for movement, stats and text-key functions.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Every yellow potion (potion kind 5, all stages) is a Teleportationstrank:
drinking it posts the teleporter's event to the busy dialog with the
hero's known portals; the potion is used up only when the hero teleports
from that window (closing it keeps the potion)
- Names replaced in every game text (ReplaceInTexts), so item names and the
bottom bar's quick-select tooltip read Teleportationstrank; GameText reads
the game's own text
- HeroIndex / HeroInventory moved to skillslots for shared use
- docs/teleport-potion.md; walking animation after loading noted in todo
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Shared chest: tabs "Truhe"/"Gemeinsam" as a column left of the grid
(game tab sheet), grids placed every tick, persistent across heroes
- Inventory tab texts capitalized (RegisterText / CapitalizeText)
- Combat-art runes stack like potions (itemstack, renamed from potionstack)
- Rune master: any rune for any number of runes, price by rune count
(4 runes = 1,000, x10 per missing rune), bought rune goes into the
backpack, Buy disabled without runes, gold or room, last rune remembered
per hero (saved), the chosen rune's name below its icon, dropping a
stack gives up one rune
- Keys: the old key handling no longer takes over after the save screen
(text field focus only counts while its dialog is shown)
- Esc crash: tooltips forgotten when the game destroys them
- Pick up (Q) sends the pickup order directly; search reach doubled
- Kettenblitz: tooltip shows hits per chain, chains, cast and jump range;
cast range 900 (longer ray segments), jumps half of that
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- potioncounts.cpp: each potion slot shows how many potions of its kind the
hero carries (stacks added up)
- potionstack.cpp: potions of one type stack up to 20 per cell; every
potion entering the hero's grid pours into stacks with room, the sort
button stacks first, drinking takes one off a stack, counts drawn on the
cells and saved in the JSON inventories
- game/engine/items.h: potion kinds and grid helpers; ObjectManager and
DestroyObject in objects.h
- auto-attack: the projectile-weapon target radius is a design value
- docs/potion-stacks.md: measured paths and the design

- respec: the panel's unused second button array becomes − buttons between
name and value; attributes give back invested points, skills give back
skill points, a level-1 skill is removed and can be chosen anew; all
through the game's own point functions (protected copy stays in sync)
- the − is the + icon with its vertical arm covered (no minus image exists)
- hud: RenderCentred / HandleCentred for mods hooking centred windows;
mouse event helpers shared in game/ui/events.h
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Quest dialogs are tooltips. A tooltip now keeps the offset it gets when it
becomes visible (the hovered window's, or centred for dialogs) and records
it for hit tests; its own event handler is shifted too. Hidden windows no
longer count as hovered.
- Esc closes a visible dialog the way its answer buttons do: hide, then
cDialogManager::Answer with no answer (ends the input lock, nothing chosen).
- Autotest can select a save game row (-Save).
- Names for the UI manager, tooltip and dialog functions.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- 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.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Saving marks effect objects dead, so after a load the Heldenmut /
Klingenblick buff was active but its aura effect (cObjectFX 842) was
gone. A few ticks after a save game has loaded, the effect is created
again for each such buff of a player hero (CreateAt + cEventFX 0x42,
as the art's cast effect does), with the buff's remaining time.
Shared game events (game/engine/events): engine tick and "save game
loaded" callbacks; the WASD mod uses the tick through it.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Arts with launch type 2 (buffs, auras, heals) are only valid on allies
or without a target; with an enemy under the cursor the game dropped
the order. Orders of a player hero for such arts lose a non-ally target,
which casts them on the hero. The launch type comes from the art
definition tables (game/engine/arts.h, tools/arttable.mjs).
Also: skill keys check the relocated taskbar slots (all 7), Ghidra
data labels (g_ names in names.txt).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
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.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Weapon sets and combat-art slots 6-7 live in a shadow inventory per
inventory; the slot methods run the original code on it for slots >= 5,
so item references, icon resources and selection events stay the
game's own. Save games (cInventoryManager::Serialize) and hero files
(saveHero / loadHero) store inventories as JSON ("SRIJ" + length);
vanilla blocks are still read, which migrates old saves. Multiplayer
transfers keep the binary format. nlohmann/json fetched via git.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Raw WM_KEYDOWN/WM_KEYUP are handled in both window procedures (the game
swaps 0x8110d0 and 0x8122a0 with SetWindowLong; 0x8110d0 is the in-game
one). Bound keys are swallowed and post the original hotkey's key event
to the kernel, so F-keys work and bindings are layout independent
([keys] in sacred_re.ini). Replaces the WASD hotkey remap and the digit
swap; W/A/S/D and the digit row no longer reach the game. Skill keys
still cast through the right mouse button. Enabled switches removed.

- tools/names.txt lists identified sacred.exe functions ("0xADDR
Class::Method"); rename.ps1 / Rename.java apply them to the persistent
Ghidra project, so decompiles read with real names.
- decompile.ps1: parameters other than the addresses are named-only (the
first address was taken as -Out).
- game-input.ps1: Hold-Key for polled keys such as movement.
