New string format
| Offset | Size | Type | Description |
| 0x00 | 16 | Character buffer | Holds the string data if capacity < 16 |
| 0x00 | 4 | Character pointer | Points to the string data if capacity >= 16 |
| 0x10 | 4 | Length | Current length of the string |
| 0x14 | 4 | Capacity | Current capacity of the string buffer (also indicates which mode the string is in) |
Yes, the first two items overlap. This is correct. This is the MSVC Express string format - Toady appears to be using standard C++ structures pretty much everywhere.
Vector format
| Offset | Size | Type | Description |
| 0x00 | 4 | vtable | (not useful) |
| 0x04 | 4 | Array start | |
| 0x08 | 4 | Array end | (End - Start)/4 = # of elements |
