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.

"""D2 QUICK SELL, batch 3.
ESTABLISHED SO FAR
* item struct base in FUN_18013fe00 is RBP+0x160 (local_188). Therefore
item+0x38 = discardValue as SENT BY THE SERVER (atom 0xd7)
item+0x3c = discardValue COMPUTED LOCALLY, only when item+0x38 == 0
item+0x4c = cardtype (= FUN_1800d8330(cardsubtypeid))
item+0x50 = cardsubtypeid, item+0x54 = "level" query key
item+0x58 = rareflag, item+0xb4 = rating
* the local formula is round_half_up(rating * price / 100) where
price = SELECT price FROM fcc_discardcoins
WHERE cardtype==item+0x4c AND level==item+0x54 AND rare==item+0x58
* item+0x54 ("level") has EXACTLY ONE reference in the whole function and it is
a READ; the only write is the 16-byte MOVDQA initialiser at 0x18013ffa1 from
_DAT_1801f66a0 = 56 01 00 00 | 00 00 00 00 | ... so level is CONSTANT 0.
* only two functions in the DLL carry the 0x326 (totalCredits) immediate:
FUN_180127300 (DiscardCard) and FUN_1801279c0 (DiscardCardByRes). Both store
to obj+0x28 with a plain MOV, never a read-modify-write.
THIS BATCH
A. who READS obj+0x28 on the DiscardCard server-call object? dump the class
vtable at 0x180220488 (slot +0x08 == 0x180127300 confirms the base) and
decompile every slot; likewise the DiscardCardByRes vtable located by
searching .rdata for the qword 0x1801279c0.
B. the FUT manager singleton: FUN_18011d780 writes DAT_1802e6398. find the
concrete vtable, dump slots 0x9c0..0xa90, decompile 0xa08 / 0xa30 / 0xa48
and every neighbour whose body mentions a credit-looking field.
C. who reads item+0x38 and item+0x3c? enumerate every function that both
(i) references the item registration entry point mgr->vt[0xa08] target and
(ii) contains a +0x38 / +0x3c memory operand. Also print the a08 target.
D. Q3 bulk discard: resolve the class that owns FUN_180126f40 by searching
.rdata for that qword, dump its vtable and decompile its url builder and
response deserialiser, so the bulk request/response shape is read off code.
E. print the raw .rdata around each RS4 discard literal so the class list is
visible.
CONTROLS
* vtable slot +0x08 of 0x180220488 must equal 0x180127300 (already observed).
* the .rdata qword search must find 0x180127300 at 0x180220490 (already
observed via xrefs_to) -- same syntactic form as the searches for
0x1801279c0 and 0x180126f40, so a hit there validates the method.
