v0.40.1 — Patch-Day Hotfix

Path of Exile 2 shifted five internal offsets today; POE2GPS follows.

Fixed — 🔧 AreaInstance offsets for the 2026-07-16 game patch (+0x8 shift)

• 🧭 Reads work again. Today's Path of Exile 2 patch shifted five fields inside the AreaInstance block by +0x08. Without the update, the overlay reads garbage for player position, entity map, terrain grid, and server data — heatmap goes blank, entities disappear, terrain draws wrong. Fixed by merging upstream Sikaka/POE2Radar@2615bec.
• Shifts applied: LocalPlayer 0x5B8→0x5C0, ServerDataPtr 0x598→0x5A0, AwakeEntities 0x6D8→0x6E0, SleepingEntities 0x6E8→0x6F0, TerrainMetadata 0x8B8→0x8C0.
• Low-offset fields (AreaInfo/Level/Hash) sit below the insertion and are unchanged.
• Life-component vitals, entity walk, terrain, inventory, and league detect all re-validated upstream against a live 2026-07-16 client session.

Under the hood

• New --chaindbg Research probe: wide-scans the AreaInstance block for the LocalPlayer metadata gate, so future patch-day drift can be localized in seconds instead of manual byte-hunting.
• Doc comments on the AreaInstance layout summary + entity-map / inventory / terrain seams updated to the new offsets to prevent future readers from anchoring on stale values.

Upgrade

Recommended for everyone playing today or later. No config changes; if v0.40.0 is running against today's game patch it will silently misread — grab this build.
