The character stats panel was showing Armor: 0 because summing armor
from item query responses is fragile (depends on correct BuyCount/damage
block parsing). Instead, read the server-authoritative total armor
directly from UNIT_FIELD_RESISTANCES (physical resistance, index 0)
in the player entity update fields.
Added UNIT_FIELD_RESISTANCES to the UF enum and all four expansion
JSON files with correct wire indices:
WotLK 3.3.5a: 99 (NPC_FLAGS=82 + emotestate + stat×5 + posstat×5 + negstat×5)
TBC 2.4.3: 185 (NPC_FLAGS=168 + same relative layout)
Classic 1.12: 154 (NPC_FLAGS=147 + emotestate + stat×5, no posstat/negstat)
Turtle WoW: 154 (same as Classic)
Stats panel uses server armor when > 0, falls back to summed item-query
armor otherwise. Armor rating resets to 0 on world entry and is updated
from both CREATE_OBJECT and VALUES update blocks.
- Per-family mount sounds (kodo, tallstrider, mechanostrider, etc.) detected from M2 model path
- Skip WMO groups with SHOW_SKYBOX flag or all-untextured batches (grey mesh in Orgrimmar)
- Freeze physics during taxi landing until terrain loads to prevent falling through void
- Disable bone animations on tropical vegetation (palm, bamboo, banana, etc.) to fix wiggling
- Snap player to final taxi waypoint on flight completion
- Extract mount aura spell ID from classic UNIT_FIELD_AURAS for CMSG_CANCEL_AURA dismount
- Increase /unstuck forward nudge to 5 units
Vanilla CMSG_CAST_SPELL target mask is uint16 (not uint32 like WotLK),
the extra 2 bytes were corrupting packets. Also implement full bag
content tracking: extract container slot GUIDs from CONTAINER update
objects, set proper bag sizes, and populate bag items in inventory
rebuild.
