The Family, FamilyCharacter and FamilyLog tables have been in the schema since the first migration and nothing has ever read them. A character who belonged to a family looked — to everyone including themselves — like a character who did not.

This adds the reading half: the membership is loaded at character select, the family tag goes into c_info, and the ginfo window is sent at login. 9 tests, all green, no new warnings.

Where the shapes come from

A packet capture, field for field.

  • ginfo is confirmed all seventeen fields deep. Worth stating because seventeen numbers in a row is exactly where an off-by-one hides, and this one would hand out the wrong permissions without throwing anything:

    ginfo -Nemesis- Yzigor 0 7 130000 640000 68 70 3 1 1 1 1 2 1 2 coin^afk^go^rush
    
  • The family tag is Name(Rank) — the brackets some families have are part of the name: [NDM](Gardien), KillaBeez(Gardien), Survival(Membre).

  • c_info carries the family id and that tag, and -1 with a bare - when there is none.

Two things found along the way

  • c_info field 15 is not the family level, whatever the packet type calls it. PIKAZ in the capture belongs to a family gidx says is level 10, and their c_info carries 0 in that slot. Left at zero rather than filled with something the capture contradicts.
  • The inherited family experience table disagrees with the capture. It says a level-7 family needs 1 900 000 to advance; the captured ginfo says 640 000 — nearly three times less. One observation cannot rebuild nineteen rows, so the inherited numbers stay and the disagreement is written into the table's own comment. It only draws the bar; nothing levels a family up yet.

What is deliberately missing

gidx, the tag over a character's head — blocked rather than skipped.

The capture writes its third field as a single family id (670 lines, not one containing a dot) and -1 when there is no family. GidxFamilySubPacket models it as a serverId.familyId compound, which cannot produce either shape. Leaving the sub-packet null makes the serializer drop the separating space and emit gidx 1 741328-1 - 0, which the client cannot split into fields.

The same missing space happens on sc_n's empty equipment slots, so this looks like one defect in NosCore.Packets showing twice. Happy to send a change there for both if you want it.

A note on placement

The family lives in PlayerSocialComponent rather than a component of its own: it is social state, and Arch's World.Create is out of generic overloads at the player bundle's current size — a further component would have to be added separately and would be easy to forget on the map-change path.

Walkthrough

The change adds family authority labels and localized resources, replaces membership-only state with Family, updates family packet generation, wires family loading into character selection and startup, and sends localized GenerateGidx packets during map changes.

Changes

Family membership and authority integration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Authority keys and localized labels
src/NosCore.Data/Enumerations/I18N/LanguageKey.cs, src/NosCore.Data/Resource/LocalizedResources*.resx
Adds four family authority enum values and localized labels for the supported languages.
Family models and membership service
src/NosCore.GameObject/Services/FamilyService/*, test/NosCore.GameObject.Tests/Services/FamilyService/FamilyTests.cs
Adds IFamilyService.GetFamilyAsync, stores FamilyCharacterDto members, resolves authority by character ID, loads the head name, and tests missing-family and authority cases.
Family packet and character data generation
src/NosCore.GameObject/Ecs/Components/PlayerSocialComponent.cs, src/NosCore.GameObject/Ecs/Extensions/FamilyExtensions.cs, src/NosCore.GameObject/Ecs/Extensions/PlayerBundleExtensions.cs, test/NosCore.GameObject.Tests/Services/FamilyService/FamilyPacketTests.cs
Reads family data from player.Family, resolves authority through Family.AuthorityOf, and validates packet output and localized rank formatting.
Runtime family state and startup wiring
src/NosCore.GameObject/Messaging/WolverineDependencyRegistrar.cs, src/NosCore.PacketHandlers/CharacterScreen/SelectPacketHandler.cs, src/NosCore.PacketHandlers/Game/GameStartPacketHandler.cs, test/NosCore.PacketHandlers.Tests/*, test/NosCore.Tests.Shared/TestHelpers.cs
Registers the family service, loads Family during character selection, generates family information during startup, and updates constructor wiring in tests and helpers.
Map change visibility packets
src/NosCore.GameObject/Services/MapChangeService/MapChangeService.cs
Sends GenerateGidx packets with GenerateIn packets and builds family tags with each recipient’s language.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 6aaf7

The PR adds family data to character selection and login packets, but the wire-format tests may not catch a documented serialized-output mismatch. The change is otherwise mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up on the packet serialization tests.

that should be handled by the packet serialization

@denislauri1999

Comments cut — 145 lines gone.

Translations: the four rank labels are now translated in all eight non-English resources instead of sitting there in English. The French is not a guess: the capture writes the tag as [NDM](Gardien), so Gardien is what Manager comes out as on a real server, and the other seven follow that reading.

"that shouldn't be in noscore but in the library for stats": agreed — NosCoreIO/NosCore.Algorithm#129 adds FamilyExperienceService (with MateExperienceService for the same complaint on #2281). FamilyExperienceTable stays here only to keep this branch building and goes as soon as that package ships; happy to hold this PR until then instead.

Worth flagging from that work: the published family table says a level 7 family needs 1 900 000 to advance, and the captured ginfo for a level 7 family says 640 000. One observation cannot rebuild eighteen rows so I changed nothing, but that row is wrong.

"that should be handled by the packet serialization": yes. Same conclusion as on #2281 — the space-to-caret substitution belongs in the serializer, and while looking I found a second thing there: a null sub-packet loses its separating space, which is why gidx cannot currently be sent at all. The capture writes its family field as a single id (670 lines, no dots) and -1 when there is none, while GidxFamilySubPacket models it as serverId.familyId, which produces neither. Both go into one NosCore.Packets PR and the manual Replace comes out of here once it lands.

The Family, FamilyCharacter and FamilyLog tables have been in the schema since the first
migration and nothing has ever read them. A character who belonged to a family looked, to
everyone including themselves, like a character who did not. This adds the reading half: the
membership is loaded at character select, the family tag goes into c_info, and the ginfo
window is sent at login.

SOURCE: a packet capture, field for field.

  * ginfo is confirmed all seventeen fields deep, which is worth stating because seventeen
    numbers in a row is exactly where an off-by-one hides — and this one would hand out the
    wrong permissions without throwing anything:
        ginfo -Nemesis- Yzigor 0 7 130000 640000 68 70 3 1 1 1 1 2 1 2 coin^afk^go^rush
  * the family tag is "Name(Rank)", and the brackets some families have are part of the NAME:
        [NDM](Gardien)   KillaBeez(Gardien)   Survival(Membre)
  * c_info carries the family id and that tag, and -1 with a bare "-" when there is none.

TWO THINGS FOUND ALONG THE WAY, both written next to the code:

  * c_info's field 15 is NOT the family level, whatever the packet type calls it. PIKAZ in the
    capture belongs to a family gidx says is level 10, and their c_info carries 0 in that
    slot. Left at zero rather than filled with something the capture contradicts.
  * the family experience table the older emulators ship says a level-7 family needs
    1 900 000 to advance. The captured ginfo says 640 000 — nearly three times less. One
    observation cannot rebuild nineteen rows, so the inherited numbers stay and the
    disagreement is written into the table's own comment. It only draws the bar; nothing
    levels a family up yet.

NOT DONE, AND BLOCKED RATHER THAN SKIPPED: gidx, the tag over a character's head. The capture
writes its third field as a single family id — 670 lines, not one containing a dot — and -1
when there is no family. GidxFamilySubPacket models it as a "serverId.familyId" compound,
which cannot produce either shape; and leaving the sub-packet null makes the serializer drop
the separating space and emit "gidx 1 741328-1 - 0", a packet the client cannot split. The
same missing space happens on sc_n's empty equipment slots, so it looks like one defect in
the packet library rather than two. Happy to send a NosCore.Packets change for both if you
want it.

The family lives in PlayerSocialComponent rather than a component of its own: it is social
state, and Arch's World.Create is out of generic overloads at the player bundle's current
size, so a further component would have to be added separately and would be easy to forget on
the map-change path.

…mily ranks

The four rank labels are now translated in all eight non-English resources. The French one is
worth noting: the capture writes the tag as [NDM](Gardien), and Gardien is what Manager comes
out as, so that language at least is confirmed against a real server rather than guessed.

StringSerializer already replaces the separator with a caret for every non-final string field.
The family message keeps its manual escape: it is the last field of ginfo, which the
serializer deliberately leaves alone, and the capture shows it caret-separated anyway.

Two things the 21.0.0 and 2.1.0 bumps unblocked.

gidx now goes out on map entry — the arriving character's tag to everybody, and everybody
else's to the newcomer. It was blocked because the packet modelled the family field as a
serverId.familyId pair while the capture writes a single id in all 670 of its gidx lines;
21.0.0 flattened it, and both cases now reproduce exactly:

    gidx 1 521919 5083 [NDM](Gardien) 3
    gidx 1 741328 -1 - 0

A character with no family is told so rather than left alone: the client keeps whatever tag
it was last given, so silence would leave a stale one over their head.

FamilyExperienceTable is gone in favour of IFamilyExperienceService from NosCore.Algorithm
2.1.0, which is where you said it belonged. The disagreement with the capture — 1 900 000
against the captured 640 000 at level 7 — travelled with it and is written on the curve.

Rebased on master and took both bumps.

gidx is in. Flattening the family id in Packets 21.0.0 was the blocker, and both cases now reproduce the capture exactly:

gidx 1 521919 5083 [NDM](Gardien) 3
gidx 1 741328 -1 - 0

It goes out on map entry — the arriving character's tag to everybody, everybody else's to the newcomer. A character with no family is told so rather than left alone: the client keeps whatever tag it was last given, so silence leaves a stale one over their head.

FamilyExperienceTable is gone, replaced by IFamilyExperienceService from Algorithm 2.1.0. The disagreement with the capture — 1 900 000 against the captured 640 000 at level 7 — travelled with the curve and is written on it there.

shouldn't we just get the Family not sure we need this concept of FamilyCharacter at all tbh

… reader's language

All of the review in one pass.

The packets move out of the game object and into an extension on the player bundle, next to
GenerateCInfo, the way everything else here is written. Family and FamilyCharacter go back to
being data.

The tag is now built per reader. It was taking the owner's account language, so two players
standing next to each other saw the same family in whichever language its owner happens to
play in. There is a test for it — the words themselves live in the resources, so what it
guards is that the tag is built per reader at all.

Also from the review:

  * the empty tag is null rather than "-": the serializer writes a null string as -, and
    spelling it out here duplicated a rule that lives there;
  * the caret substitution on the family message is gone for the same reason;
  * FamilyCharacter.CharacterName is gone. Only the head's name is ever printed, so only the
    head's name is fetched, and it sits on the family;
  * the experience service goes into GenerateGInfo rather than being resolved at the call site;
  * familyMembership, and no ConfigureAwait in the handler.

Your fix to the family curve in Algorithm settles the disagreement I had flagged: 640 000 at
level 7, and the table now reaches level 30.

All ten addressed in one pass.

The ECS conventions — you were right that the packets had no business on the game object. They are now an extension on the player bundle, next to GenerateCInfo; Family and FamilyCharacter are data again.

The language one was a real bug, not just a smell. The tag was built from the owner's account language, so two players standing next to each other saw the same family in whichever language its owner happens to play in. It reads the receiver's language now, with a test — the words live in the resources, so what the test guards is that the tag is built per reader at all.

The rest:

  • the empty tag is null rather than "-", and the caret substitution on the family message is gone — both duplicated a rule that lives in the serializer;
  • FamilyCharacter.CharacterName removed. You were right that we do not need it: only the head's name is ever printed, so only the head's name is fetched and it sits on the family;
  • the experience service goes into GenerateGInfo rather than being resolved at the call site;
  • familyMembership, and no ConfigureAwait.

And thank you for fixing the family curve — that settles the disagreement I flagged (640 000 at level 7 against the table's 1 900 000) and takes it to level 30, which the old one did not reach.

Character.AccountLanguage, rather than reusing one packet generated with the

Review feedback on NosCoreIO#2283: the membership wrapper earned nothing. The component
now holds the Family itself, Members is a list of FamilyCharacterDto, and the
reader's own rank comes from Family.AuthorityOf(characterId) — which also
removes the child-holds-a-reference-to-its-parent cycle.

IFamilyService.GetMembershipAsync becomes GetFamilyAsync.

You're right, FamilyCharacter wasn't earning its place — dropped it.

PlayerSocialComponent now holds the Family directly, Family.Members is a plain IReadOnlyList<FamilyCharacterDto>, and the reader's own rank comes from Family.AuthorityOf(characterId). That also removes the cycle where each membership pointed back at its family. IFamilyService.GetMembershipAsync is now GetFamilyAsync, and GameStartPacketHandler just null-checks the packet GenerateGInfo returns instead of checking the membership first.

Kept a test on AuthorityOf for the case that matters: the window hands out permissions from that value, so reading somebody else's row would grant them without throwing.

Now that master is on Packets 21.0.0 the serialized line can be asserted, and
that is the thing the client reads. Two captured lines:

    gidx 1 521919 5083 [NDM](Gardien) 3
    gidx 1 741328 -1 - 0

The second is the one worth pinning: a null id has to reach the client as -1
and a null name as -, which is the serializer's job. Asserting on the packet
object would have passed whatever the serializer then did with it.

Recorded while doing it: GidxPacket ends in a FamilyIcons list, and an empty
one still emits its leading separator, so our line carries a trailing space.
The captured server never does - 670 gidx lines, not one with a trailing space.
It is an empty final token either way, so it is written down rather than
patched around; changing the serializer's trailing-separator rule would reach
every packet that ends in a list.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Assert the unmodified packet payload.

Line 151 and Line 167 remove trailing spaces before the assertions. This makes the tests pass when an empty FamilyIcons list adds the trailing separator that Lines 142-145 identify as absent from captured gidx lines.

Trim only packet framing characters. Then assert the complete expected line, including that it does not end with a space.

CodeRabbit caught the call site the earlier fix left behind, and it is right.
GenerateGidx builds the family tag in the READER's language, but the map-entry
broadcast built one packet with the arriving character's language and sent it
to everyone already there. A French player watching an English player walk in
saw the rank in English.

One packet per watcher now. The GenerateIn above it stays as it is: its prefix
is the moderator tag, which belongs to the character and not to the reader.

The other GenerateGidx in this file, at line 228, was already correct - that
one sends TO the arriving player, so their own language is the right one.

Good catch from the bot, and it was mine: I fixed the per-reader language inside GenerateGidx and left the call site that broadcasts it.

MapChangeService now sends one gidx per watcher, each in that watcher's AccountLanguage. The GenerateIn above it stays as it was — its prefix is the moderator tag, which belongs to the character rather than the reader. The other GenerateGidx in the file (line 228) was already right: that one sends to the arriving player, so their own language is the correct one.

Also added while master is now on Packets 21.0.0: a test that asserts the serialized line rather than the packet object, since the line is what the client reads —

gidx 1 741328 -1 - 0

A null id has to reach the client as -1 and a null name as -, and asserting on the object would have passed whatever the serializer then did with it.

Remarks blocks and the prose around the captures are gone; the captured lines
themselves stay, since they are what pins each field. 97 comment lines down
to 76.

On the BOMs: several files had picked one up and a few had lost one. The rule
is to match master rather than to strip - the .resx files carry a BOM upstream,
so removing it turns a two-line change into a whole-file diff.
