Like everything that should be a member variable of the object, corpse, player, unit, etc. classes are instead stored in an array in the Object class. I don't intend to fix it all up just yet but I would like to extract at least the player flags from that hellish nightmare of a code.

Seems like someone just extracted everything from the client (says it's auto generated in the Object header file) and called it a day.

Also, how do you know the player is stunned? Does that get sent in the compressed object update message?

the flags need to be used to decide who can see updates to a given field

for example those with UF_FLAG_PRIVATE are only seen by the player himself, others dont receive those fields in the update object packet

Yes I think that’s it but what I don’t get is why it is implemented in that way on the server side, when the client clearly has the fields in member variables.
