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.

## Bug: skill "aura" effects are not drawn
|
|
|
|
Reported 2026-10-14: the aura effects of some skills are missing. Not
|
|
investigated yet. Things to check first:
|
|
|
|
- whether vanilla (`[widescreen] Enabled=0`) draws them, i.e. whether the
|
|
widescreen or HUD patches cause it;
|
|
- whether they are missing everywhere or only away from the screen centre;
|
|
if the latter, a clip test still using 1024x768 bounds, like the creature
|
|
clip (`0x4c8`/`0x3c8`) was;
|
|
- effect objects (`cObjectFX`) in the object passes (`cWorldView0::DrawObjects`
|
|
`0x62e580` / `DrawObjects2` `0x6300d0`) and the light/effect list
|
|
(`+0xce14`, `0x41b1xx`).
|
|
|
|
## Better pathfinder (mouse clicks and monsters)
|
|
|
|
Replace the game's pathfinding with a more reliable and efficient one, for
|
|
click-to-move and for monster AI. What we know so far:
|
|
|
|
- Walk orders are `cEvent_creature` command 4 with a ground target (+0x18/+0x1c),
|
|
sent through `cEngine::SendCreatureOrder` (`0x6170d0`), which snaps the
|
|
target to a walkable point (`0x616b70`) and hands it to
|
|
`cCreature::ReceiveOrder` (`0x52e400`, vf18, ~6400 decompiled lines).
|
|
- Far targets (~2000 world units) are rejected or followed badly.
|
|
- Still to map: the path search itself, the sector/tile collision data it
|
|
reads, and how monster AI issues its moves.
|
|
|
|
## Key bindings moved for WASD movement (temporary)
|
|
|
|
W, A and S were game hotkeys. With WASD movement (`src/mods/wasd.cpp`) their
|
|
actions moved to other keys for now; choose final bindings (and update the
|
|
in-game texts/tooltips that name the old keys):
|
|
|
|
| Key | Action | Temporary key (sacred_re.ini) |
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|
| W | action slot 3 (`cEngine::UseActionSlot`, like Q/E/R/B/Space) | G (`[keys] ActionSlot3`) |
|
|
| A | pick up items nearby (creature event 0x113) | V (`[keys] PickUp`) |
|
|
| S | save game window (`UI_WND_SAVEGAME`) | K (`[keys] SaveGame`) |
|
|
| D | unbound | - |
|
|
|
|
Globally bound letters (engine `0x618130`, UI manager `0x757120`): A B C E F
|
|
H I L M N O P Q R S T W, Space, ^, digits. Individual windows may use more.
