The pricing DECISION (which rating to trust, when to decline) lived in the host
while the TABLE lived in the adapter, so FIFA semantics were split across two
crates and no single function could be pointed at as authoritative.
Move the decision into the adapter as `discard::value_for_definition(subtype,
rareflag, catalog_rating, core_rating) -> Option<i64>` and have the host call it.
Its three tests move with it. There is now exactly one table implementation, one
decision point (`ItemIdentityResolver::discard_value`), and one deliberately
retained rollback ladder (`legacy_discard_value`).
Add `examples/discard_matrix.rs`, which audits an entire FIFA17 corpus using the
SHIPPED implementation rather than reimplementing the formula, so the matrix
cannot drift from what the server pays. Over the current 1717-definition corpus:
declined -> legacy : 6 (badge, ball, kit x2, misc, stadium -- no catalog rating)
priced zero : 0
negative : 0
implausible : 0
rating boundaries : OK (1/2/3 at <65 / 65..74 / >=75)
Also re-verified both numeric cores against the LIVE client rather than trusting
the earlier notes:
level 0x180141e8a cmp al,0x4b -> 3 ; cmp al,0x41 ; sbb/add 2 -> 2 else 1
value 0x180141119 imul rating*price ; /100 via 0x51eb851f ; imul 0x64 ; sub ;
cmp remainder,0x32 ; jl/inc == round-half-up
`(rating*price + 50)/100` is identical to that for non-negative inputs.
Adapter 247 lib, host 120 lib, fmt and clippy clean.
OpenFUT
⚠️ Status — see
docs/PROJECT_STATE.md(canonical). The working, actively-developed target is FIFA 17, not FIFA 23. Everything below this banner describes the superseded FIFA 23bridgelineage and is kept for historical context.Run the server (canonical):
cd fifa17-recon/docker/fifa17-python && docker compose up -d— seefifa17-recon/FUT-RUNBOOK.md.openfut-coreis the shared offline backend (still used by the FIFA 17 path);openfut-bridgeis the retired FIFA 23 integration.
Offline Ultimate Team — like SPT, but for FIFA 23.
OpenFUT replaces EA's retired FUT servers with a fully offline, single-player backend. You own FIFA 23 legitimately. You just want to keep playing after EA shut down the servers.

SQLite database
Core is game-independent. It speaks a clean REST API and knows nothing about FIFA 23 internals.
Bridge is FIFA-specific. It speaks FIFA 23's wire protocol and translates it into Core API calls. Bridge is where all reverse engineering work happens.

Running
# Start the offline backend
cd openfut-core
cargo run
# Start the proxy (for traffic capture / FIFA integration)
cd openfut-bridge
cargo run
Core listens on http://127.0.0.1:8080 by default.
Bridge listens on http://127.0.0.1:8443 by default.
Design Principles
- Offline-first. No EA account required. No internet connection needed.
- Single-player only. This is not a multiplayer server emulator.
- Data-driven. All cards, packs, SBCs, and objectives are JSON files. Everything is moddable.
- Clean architecture. Core has zero knowledge of FIFA 23. Bridge has zero game logic.
- No copyrighted assets. No real player images, no EA trademarks in data files.
