Summary

  • Confirm/cancel dropped mid-trade: req_exc only declared InGame, so the scope gate dropped Confirmed/Cancelled while a trade was open. Fixed in NosCore.Packets 21.1.3 (fix: exc_list items parse one per sub-packet, and req_exc is accepted mid-trade (21.1.3) NosCore.Packets#541): req_exc is now InGame | InTrade.
  • Phantom offers: the deserializer counted one exc_list sub-packet per token, so every offered item came with two empty Equipment/0/0 entries that force-closed the trade. Also fixed in 21.1.3. The server-side zero-amount filter and the scope-gate exception are removed again.
  • Gold-only offer: arrives with SubPackets == null, which SubPackets!.Count threw on. Now SubPackets?.Count > 0.
  • Confirm branches were swapped: ValidateExchange returns (Success, null), so a valid trade dereferenced the null failure dictionary.
  • Receiver's notification: a partial-stack transfer now shows the receiver's merged item, not the giver's remaining stack.
  • Self-exchange is refused.

Test plan

  • dotnet test NosCore.sln against NosCore.Packets 21.1.3 from nuget.org: GameObject 599/599, PacketHandlers 420/420, Core/Database/WebApi green. Parser.Tests.EveryDeclaredEffectIsNamed fails locally on master too (newer client .dat on disk).
  • New tests: self-exchange refused, gold-only offer neither closes the trade nor drops the gold, receiver notified with the merged amount

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Exchange requests to your own character are rejected.
    • Exchange updates now reflect the actual item amount received, including when items merge into an existing stack.
    • Gold-only exchange offers continue to be processed when no item list is provided.
    • Exchange validation failures are reported correctly before any items or gold are transferred.

Walkthrough

The exchange flow now rejects self-targets, sends validation result packets on failure, accepts gold-only offers with null subpacket lists, and builds receiver inventory notifications from inserted items. Tests cover these cases. The central NosCore.Packets version changes to 21.1.3.

Changes

Exchange handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Request validation and confirmation
src/NosCore.PacketHandlers/Exchange/ExchangeRequestPacketHandler.cs, test/NosCore.PacketHandlers.Tests/Exchange/ExchangeRequestPacketHandlerTests.cs
Self-targeted requests receive the BlockingTrades message. Failed exchange validation sends result packets to participants. Tests cover the self-target request behavior.
Gold-only offer handling
src/NosCore.PacketHandlers/Exchange/ExcListPacketHandler.cs, test/NosCore.PacketHandlers.Tests/Exchange/ExcListPacketHandlerTests.cs, Directory.Packages.props
Exchange-list processing checks for a non-null, non-empty subpacket list before processing items. Tests cover gold-only offers with a null subpacket list. NosCore.Packets changes from version 21.1.2 to 21.1.3.
Destination inventory notifications
src/NosCore.GameObject/Services/ExchangeService/ExchangeService.cs, test/NosCore.GameObject.Tests/Services/ExchangeService/ExchangeServiceTests.cs
Destination inventory packets use the item returned by AddItemToPocket. A regression test verifies the notified amount when a transferred stack merges with the receiver’s existing stack.

Exchanges can still be confirmed or cancelled, and validation outcomes are mapped correctly. Adding handler-level tests would protect that behavior; no current merge-blocking issue was established.

likely the fix shouldnt be here but in noscorepackets then

RequestExchangeType.Confirmed/Cancelled are only ever sent while
InExchange is already true, but ExchangeRequestPacket's declared scope
is InGame only (missing InTrade), so WorldPacketHandlingStrategy's
generic scope gate silently rejected every confirm and cancel before
the handler ran. Special-case those two request types past the gate.

Separately, ExchangeRequestPacketHandler's Confirmed case had its
success/failure branches inverted: a validated exchange (Success, null
packet dict) took the branch that dereferences the packet dict,
throwing on every legitimately successful confirm.

…e receiver's amount

ExcListPacket.SubPackets deserializes with a minimum of 3 default-valued
fillers regardless of how many real sub-packets were sent, because the
trailing list has no wire count prefix. Amount has a declared
[Range(1, ...)], so a filler (Amount == 0) can never be a genuine offer -
same phantom-entry shape as QstlistPacket/FinitPacket, filtered in
ExcListPacketHandler the same way those are filtered client-side.

Separately, ExchangeRequestPacketHandler's Requested case had no guard
against a player targeting their own VisualId, letting a self-invite be
sent, accepted, and opened.

And ExchangeService.ProcessExchange built the receiving side's inventory
notification from the sender's own item object instead of the item
actually added to the receiver's inventory. Partial transfers mutate the
sender's item in place when removing the offered amount, so the receiver
was notified with the sender's post-removal remaining balance rather
than their own real (possibly merged) total. The persisted inventory was
always correct; only the notification packet was wrong.

…nd exc_list parsing

21.1.3 lets req_exc through while a trade is open and parses exc_list as one
item per offered sub-packet, so the scope-gate exception and the zero-amount
filter come out. A gold-only offer arrives with no sub-packet list at all,
which the null check now covers instead of throwing.

185-205: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Add Confirmed handler coverage for both validation outcomes.

The handler tests do not invoke RequestExchangeType.Confirmed. Add assertions that validation failure sends ExcClosePacket.Type = Failure and validation success sends ExcClosePacket.Type = Success. Reversing the mapping would therefore escape the current handler tests, while CloseExchange would send the incorrect outcome to both clients.
