funman300 21a81ad63c fifa17-recon: the real quick-sell table, and the grouping bug is not in our layer
Multi-agent pass over the store subsystem, 11 agents, findings run through three
adversarial verifiers. Full writeup in docs/plan-2026-08-05-store-subsystem.md.

THE REAL DISCARD TABLE IS RECOVERED. quick_sell() paid an invented rating tier
(600/300/150/50) that was wrong for every single card. The real table is
fcc_discardcoins in the client's own game DB, 141 rows keyed (cardtype, level, rare),
read out of the running client and verified 22/22 against live items:

    value = round_half_up(rating * price / 100)
    level    = 3 if rating >= 75, 2 if 65..74, else 1   (0x180141e8a..0x180141ea3,
               derived from rating, NOT a wire field)
    cardtype = FUN_1800d8330(cardsubtypeid), decoded from its jump table and checked
               across every subtype 0..599 with zero disagreements

A 94-rated gold rare is 752, not 600. A 76 rare is 608, not 150. A 55 bronze is 17,
not 50.

This also closes a disagreement nobody had noticed: the CLIENT already computes and
displays the correct value locally whenever our discardValue (atom 0xd7) is 0 or
absent. FUN_18013fe00 stores our value at item +0x38 and the guard at 0x180141025
skips the local computation when it is non-zero. So the screen has been showing the
real number while the server paid a made-up one, on every quick sell ever made.

Verified beyond what the report claimed, because a missing table row pays ZERO and
that would be a regression the old flat tier could not produce: across all 236 items
in the live profile, 230 map to cardtype 1 and 6 to cardtype 6, and NOT ONE would pay
0 coins. Table reproduces at 141 rows and the worked example lands exactly.

ZERO WIRE CHANGE, FUT_DISCARD_TABLE default off. Nothing new is sent; only the coin
figure the server credits moves. This is the patch worth defaulting on after one
in-game check, which is simply quick-selling a card and seeing the coins paid match
the value the card was already displaying.

THE GROUPING BUG IS NOT IN CARDSDLL, and the fix ranked first would have wasted a
launch. Live in the running client all three display groups own exactly the right
pack, there is exactly one copy of each pack record in 4 GiB, and nothing we send is
mis-parsed. The parsed model is correct and the Scaleform layer picks the wrong pack
when turning a tile click into a category id. displayGroupAssetId is served as 1/5/6
while the screen's category field reads 3, and group tiles carry a hardcoded
CATEGORY_ID of 0. Confirmed by direct read: ordinal 3, assetId 6, i.e. Premium, while
the last click was Gold.

The heap map that made this possible, all scoped to one pid: display-group vector
control block, 3 elements of 0x108; group record fields at +0x00 sortPriority,
+0x04 displayGroupAssetId, +0x40 a one-element pack vector; inner pack record 0x1a8
with packType at +0x38, ids at +0x70/+0xac, price at +0xa0, quantities at +0xc0..+0xd0.

extPrice SHOULD BE DELETED, not corrected. Both sub-parsers read only
externalPriceId; amount and currency are discarded. Sending the key at all creates an
"mtx" currency row that switches on a real-money price line the client can never fill
offline, which is the literal "or %1s" on every tile.

A WORRY NOBODY HAD RAISED, and I confirmed it from our own logs: the client has sent
packId 6 on every purchase it has ever made, four for four tonight and six for six
across history. We have never observed a successful buy of anything but Premium Gold.

Also settled: FUT_STORE_DISPLAYGROUP=0 is the right resting state, argued from
mechanism rather than from history; FUT_USERINFO=packs stays off because the
unopened-pack counter is client-mutable and the flag ladder silently drops squadList;
POST /user is a latent hard freeze that has never fired because the client never
issues that POST.

Honest coverage: the ActionScript layer is unread by everyone and every remaining
store mystery lives there.

Live: 439 contract checks pass, market suite passes, both flags off.

"""ADVERSARIAL VERIFY BATCH 4.
T1 dim4 claim 4: exactly six HAS_DUPLICATE code sites; five publish (item+0x10 != 0),
one hardcodes 0. My independent objdump census found SIX sites:
0x1800439e4, 0x18008481d (direct lea on literal 0x1801f6510)
0x1800943ce, 0x180094c24, 0x18009661c, 0x180097400 (via ptr slot 0x1802a1ff8)
Note 0x18009bc40 is NOT among them, yet the claim lists FUN_18009bc40 as a
HAS_DUPLICATE publisher. Resolve containing functions and settle it.
T2 dim4 claim 5: FUN_180127cc0 pile serializer -- record+0x08 switch 5/6/else,
atoms 0x16b/0x15c/0x226/0x2fe/0x331/0x330/0x262/0x87. Ladder + full decompile.
T3 dim5 claim 5: the three claimed consumers of model vt+0x4d8 (0x18011c200).
Enumerate ALL xrefs to 0x18011c200 and to the accessor address, and list callers.
T4 dim5 claim 6 ATTACK: who writes model+0x5a38's begin/end? dim5 says unknown and
guesses starterPack. Enumerate callers of the vt+0x160 accessor 0x18011b780 and
check whether the CreatePack/purchased deserializers push into it.
