Move first-time character menu orchestration out of Papyrus and into the C++ session-launch flow. CO_Vault109StartQuestScript.psc now only teleports the player and sets stage 10. F4TSessionLaunch.cpp adds camera preparation/restoration, direct PlayerCamera/ThirdPersonState face-camera tuning, primary console ShowLooksMenu 14 path, Actor.ShowLooksMenu fallback, retry/timeouts and guarded state resets. Added logging and counters for Looks/SPECIAL menu polling. Updated changelog.md and docs/dev-log.md to describe the new flow and testing notes.
Add host normalization and ResolveServerKey to match equivalent endpoints (localhost/127.0.0.1, bracketed IPv6, etc.) so reconnects reuse existing server profiles. Harden profile storage: sanitize save-folder components, use Documents fallback via _dupenv_s when needed, log write/open failures, and fix Windows build issues from unsafe getenv usage. Make session launch resilient to missing or rotated exit saves by accepting Exitsave... names, refreshing to the newest exit save, and falling back to first-time flow from the main menu (instead of hard-failing). Update session launch to prefer resolved profile keys, touch/bind profiles appropriately, and improve related load error handling. Also add a simple Creation Kit quest script (CO_Vault109StartQuestScript) and update changelog/docs to document these changes.
Add new Papyrus scripts (CoSync.psc, CoSyncPlayer.psc, CoSyncQuest.psc) providing native bindings and quest/player proxy logic for networking: connection/session APIs, entity management, world/weather/workshop/companion sync, consumable/pipboy/door/power-armor events, and proxy animation/initialization handlers. Refactor the proxy actor controller (F4TProxyActorController.cpp) to support dynamic/runtime proxy spawning and improved lifecycle/visibility handling: change proxy base/form IDs to COPlayerProxy/CommonwealthOnline, add process-list actor lookup, spawn helpers, play-space/cell checks, 3D visibility refresh, ActorHandle usage, and spawn mutexes and globals for safer spawning. Update docs and setup (architecture.md, limitations.md, plugin/setup.md) to describe global dynamic spawn behavior, max runtime proxies (kMaxRuntimeProxyActors = 4), and validation checklist; update launch-two-fallout4.bat to show instance log locations. Misc: small tweaks to logging and debug flags to gate diagnostics.
Replace occurrences of "Fallout 4 Together" with "Commonwealth Online" across docs and testing guidance. Add Interface assets and tooling: MainMenu/Pipboy SWFs, translation/fonts, exported scripts (Interface/exported/scripts/MainMenu.as) and a PATCH_MainMenu_Multiplayer.md describing how to add a Multiplayer menu entry that calls root.f4se.plugins.commonwealthOnline.openManager(). Also add build/run batch scripts and apply assorted updates to README, plugin, server and protocol documentation/source to align with the rename and UI changes.
