CaptureTool (built next to the servers) replays packet bundles and compares the answers:
- replay: per bundle a fresh sandbox folder with copied server binaries, rewritten settings
(replay_sandbox=1, a new SQLite file inside the folder, ports from --port on, no dashboard),
read back before anything starts; sandbox-setup runs inside it to apply migrations and make
the replay account and the bundle's characters (setup mode); master is started, the stack is
stopped as one process group and the folder deleted unless kept
- with replay_sandbox=1 every server refuses a database that isn't SQLite, isn't inside its
own folder, or is replay_live_sqlite_path (Database::Connect); replay-target against a
running server needs --i-know-this-is-not-a-sandbox
- the fake client splits the recording into connections, logs in and picks the character
itself when the recording doesn't, fills in the target's account, session key and IDs,
learns server-made object IDs from replica constructions by LOT, follows the recorded
timing and waits for the answers a client waits for; the diff pairs answers by name (and
constructions by LOT) and ignores fields that differ between runs
- import-live converts the 2014 live captures (folders of *_traffic.zip; pcaps and encrypted
captures are left alone) into bundles, with secrets removed and CREATE_CHARACTER as setup
- anonymise makes local fixtures; docs/CaptureReplay.md describes capture, the bundle format,
portability rules, the sandbox and the replay

The NexusDashboard-parity dashboard (dDashboardServer) and everything built on it on the experimental branch:
accounts, characters, properties and moderation tools, permissions shared with in-game slash commands, economy
reports, World 3D and property 3D views with client scenery, scheduled events (features, vanity changes, live
events, announcements, restarts), vanity files and events, the CDClient browser, the message inspector with saved
captures, chat filter tools, community challenges, live ops, the AI moderator helper, and the server-side changes
they need.
