torso twist died after a respawn: Myomers ran the inner integrator, never the wrapper
Gitea #70. Torso twist intermittently stops working after a death/respawn and stays stopped, with the generator at a full 10000V and the voltage link resolving fine. A stale state, not a live one. The Torso is a PowerWatcher that mirrors the electrical level of the subsystem it watches -- for the MadCat that is roster slot 15, Myomers -- and torso.cpp:570 holds effectiveTwistRate at 0 whenever that mirrored level is not Ready. So the question was never about the torso. It was: why does Myomers sit at NoVoltage forever? Because it never ran the state machine that would walk it back. The Myomers ctor @004b8fec stores [0x511620] into activePerformance, and that pointer resolves to 0x4b8b9c -- whose first instruction is `call 0x4b0bd0`, which is PoweredSubsystem::PoweredSubsystemSimulation. @004b8d18, the function this port had registered, is the INNER drive-heat integrator that wrapper goes on to run. We registered the inside of the onion. PoweredSubsystemSimulation is the only code that both enters NoVoltage (source == 0) and leaves it (NoVoltage -> Starting -> Ready), so a Myomers that lost power during the death/reset window had no way back out. Order is load-bearing: the base call precedes the heat-model gate in the binary. Gating first -- as this did -- also denied the electrical machine to every non-expert pilot, since OwnerAdvancedDamage() reads the +0x260 heat-model flag and that is off below veteran. Measured with BT_SELF_DAMAGE + BT_TORSO_LOG, before and after: pristine, before 48/48 Ready after 38/38 Ready post-respawn 95/97 Ready 89/89 Ready Two dead windows per respawn, now none, and the clean case stays clean. The wrapper has a tail this does not yet reconstruct: @004b8bb9-0x4b8c1e runs an effect when electricalStateAlarm == 1 and the myomer's damage zone is below 1.0, building a small vector (const 0xbc343958, about -0.011f) against the owner's localOrigin@0x100. Almost certainly the un-powered movement penalty. Flagged in the KB as T4 rather than guessed at. Worth generalizing, and noted as such in context/subsystems.md: when a subsystem's Performance address in a PTR_LAB_* slot does not match the function we reconstructed, suspect a wrapper that chains the base sim. The whole family does it -- Generator and PoweredSubsystem both lead with HeatSink::HeatSinkSimulation, and the Torso's own perf @004b5cf0 leads with UpdateWatch.

Gitea #62 FIXED: AutoConnect can re-attach again -- slot 16 is HasVoltage(source), not GetStatusFlags()
A weapon detached by two eng-page BUS MODE presses stayed dark for the REST OF
THE MISSION: no voltage, blank recharge arc, dead ready dot, will not fire.
The arcade recovers by pressing bus-mode back to Auto and letting the per-frame
auto-hunt re-tap a generator. In the port that hunt's body was UNREACHABLE.
THE DEFECT, visible in three lines of powersub.cpp:
if (modeAlarm == AutoConnect && GetStatusFlags() == 0) // outer: NOT damaged
for (...)
if (... && GetStatusFlags() != 0 && Attach(sub)) // inner: DAMAGED?!
Both call sites modelled the no-argument GetStatusFlags(), so the outer demanded
"no status flags" and the inner "some status flag", with nothing in between able
to change the value -- mutually exclusive, body never entered. The binary's
@004b0bd0 calls vtable slot +0x40 (slot 16) with TWO SHAPES: slot16(this, 0) == 0
("am I unpowered?") and slot16(this, candidate) != 0 ("would THIS generator
supply me?").
WHAT WAS ACTUALLY WRONG was narrower than the issue assumed -- the BODY was
already a faithful transcription of @004b0b5c (complete-type accessors, no raw
offsets). Only its NAME and its WIRING were wrong:
* it was called `IsSourceShorted`, asserting the INVERSE of what it computes:
state 2 is the generator's ON-LINE state (Generator::GeneratorReady, what
@004b215c's stateAlarm->2 sets) and the fabsf test requires meaningfully
non-zero output voltage. True means "live and supplying".
* it was declared NON-VIRTUAL, so it could not be the slot-16 body, and a weak
stand-in (`electricalStateAlarm == Ready`, no source arg, no voltage test)
occupied `HasVoltage()` instead.
FIX: rename to `virtual Logical HasVoltage(Subsystem *source = 0)`, delete the
stand-in, restore the two AutoConnect call shapes, and rename Myomers' slot-16
override (`HasAdequateVoltage` -> `HasVoltage`) so it actually overrides -- it
tightens the test to "at least the SELECTED SEEK voltage", which is why it
exists.
BLAST RADIUS (the issue's warning): GetStatusFlags ORs the BadPower bit 0x40 on
!HasVoltage(), and that bit feeds #47's annunciator -- so power, firing and
annunciation semantics moved together. Checked: a healthy solo mission shows
zero spurious BadPower, subsystems simulate normally, no faults.
VERIFIED with a new diagnostic hook in the codebase's existing family
(BT_POWER_DETACH_TEST=1, off by default): it reproduces the player's exact state
-- drop the voltage link and force Auto, i.e. what the second BUS MODE press
does -- so the fix can be tested without the eng-page UI. Live result:
[power] TEST: detaching Avionics (forcing Auto) -- the auto-hunt must recover it
[power] AutoConnect RE-ATTACHED Avionics -> generator GeneratorA
Before the fix that second line was impossible. BT_POWER_LOG=1 prints every
re-attach; both hooks stay for regression use.
(The file-static one-shot is deliberate: PoweredSubsystem's layout is byte-locked
by PoweredSubsystemLayoutCheck, so a test flag as an instance member would break
sizeof and every offset assert downstream.)

#55 steps 0/1/2/4: the 1995 DEATH pass restored, the arg gate made real, and 5 subsystems the respawn sweep never reached
THE HEADLINE: the port's death sweep was a total no-op, and fixing it required
fixing the arg gate in the same commit -- otherwise corpses refill their ammo.
STEP 2 -- the authentic dispatch shape:
* engine/MUNGA/SUBSYSTM.h: Subsystem::DeathShutdown gains the binary's
universal base body { DeathReset(c) } (@004ad10e). It was empty, and NO
port class overrode it, so everything the 1995 game does at death was
skipped entirely.
* mech4.cpp death sweep now passes 0, not 1 (the binary's @0049fe0c arg) --
the wreck shape: alarms/state settle, nothing refills.
* ARG PROPAGATION (mandatory once the sweep runs): AmmoBin::DeathReset is now
arg-gated exactly as @004bd26c -- refill only when arg != 0, ammoAlarm
unconditional. Ignoring the arg was harmless only while the sweep was
dead; with it restored, every corpse would have re-armed. Also forwarded
in PoweredSubsystem / HeatSink / Condenser / HeatableSubsystem / Generator
(each binary body forwards it -- verified addresses in the plan).
STEP 4 -- coverage for 5 classes that had an authentic slot-10 body but no
DeathReset, so the respawn sweep fell through to the empty base:
Torso (this is Gitea #70 -- "loosing torso twist function after a death"),
Gyroscope, Myomers, HUD, Seeker.
STEPS 0/1 -- observability + the David chain:
* Three unconditional matchlog rows: DEAD_NOTIFY (mech + resolved link),
PLAYER_LINK (player <-> vehicle), RESPAWN (mode/alive/zones/subsys/pos).
A respawn was previously INVISIBLE in the matchlog -- night 3's analysis
had to infer them from ammo arithmetic.
* Mech::PlayerLinkMessageHandler + the death dispatch site: when the engine's
one-shot registry lookup misses (no null check, no retry -> the whole
death/respawn cycle silently swallowed), recover the SAME object via the
reverse link the binary's own respawn branch walks (player+0x1FC ==
playerVehicle). Complete-type TU, no raw offsets.
* deathPending cleared in the first-spawn branch (a latch carried in would
permanently kill every later respawn -- the #57 class).
VERIFIED on the 2-pod rig (madcat vs thor, forced kills, 5 death/respawn cycles
per pod): build clean, ZERO new /FORCE unresolved externs from the 5 new
overrides; refill lines appear ONLY immediately before a Mech::Reset and NEVER
between a death and the next respawn (the corpse-refill regression this commit
had to pre-empt); all three probe rows present in both pods' matchlogs; every
DEAD_NOTIFY carried a non-null link.
DELIBERATELY DEFERRED (documented, not forgotten): the mechsub.cpp rename pair
(ResetToInitialState -> GenerateFault, ClearStatus -> the root reset @004ac22c),
deleting HeatableSubsystem::ResetToInitialState, and deleting RespawnRepair.
Those need the HeatableSubsystem vtable-slot-10 pre-flight the plan calls for,
and we have no binary image here to dump the vtable from -- guessing at it
risks the vptr-alias trap. Next session with the decomp shards open.

Issue #19: wire ToggleSeekVoltage (Myomers id 9 + energy weapons id 0xb)
Root cause -- NOT issue #2 (the experience mis-seed pins everyone to VETERAN, which PASSES the novice lockout; the gates were never the blocker). Two unwired handlers, the same silent-swallow pattern ToggleCooling had (Receiver::Receive -> NullHandler for an unregistered id): - Myomers (handler table @0x51158C {9,"ToggleSeekVoltage"@004b8a48}): the reconstruction had an EMPTY stub (the address falls in the untagged decomp gap 0x4b8837..0x4b8a8c) and never registered the id. Body reconstructed faithfully from the raw disassembly (tools/disas2.py 0x4b8a48): novice lockout (@4ac9c8) -> heat-model gate (@4ad7d4) -> press-only (msg+0xc>0) -> currentSeekVoltageIndex@0x320 = (idx+1) % (maxSeekVoltageIndex@0x32C + 1). Modulo from zero, min index not consulted, no ResetFiringState. - Emitter (energy-weapon table @0x511DB8 {0xb,"ToggleSeekVoltage"@004ba478}): the faithful body already existed as the orphaned "AdvanceSeekVoltage" (ZERO callers) -- converted to the registered message handler (same guards; cycle + ResetFiringState when not wrapping, disasm re-verified). PPC and GaussRifle copy-inherit the set; the ammo branch keeps its own id 0xb == EjectAmmo (still unwired, tracked separately). Both registered via MESSAGE_ENTRY on top of the inherited chains. Permanent diagnostics: [seek] gear log (BT_SEEK_LOG) + BT_SEEKTEST scripted dispatch harness (mech4.cpp, the cooltoggle pattern). VERIFIED headless: [seek] Myomers -> 3,0,1,2,3... and [seek] PPC_1 -> 3,0,1,2,3... (modulo-4 wrap, matching the binary's arithmetic). Awaiting the tester's live ADV-mode confirmation for the real MFD button route (the routing layer is the same streamed-EventMapping path ToggleCooling verified). KB: decomp-reference.md message-table rows marked wired. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

SeekVoltageGraph: full reconstruction -- the eng-page POWER graph + top-box eraser (Gitea #11)
The #10 audit's one WRONG: the port Execute was a bring-up no-op, so the emitter/myomer engineering pages never erased their top data box -> stale sibling-page ghosts on the shared Eng bit-plane (SYSTEM 10 PPC showing the Streak ammo box, etc). Full faithful widget landed: - btl4gau2: ctor/BecameActive/Execute/clear/ticks/cursor recovered from the capstone disasm of @004c6798/@004c6920/@004c6934/@004c6be4/@004c6c30/ @004c6c6c (Ghidra dropped every x87 arg). Plot: v=0..12000 step 1200, x=Round(response(v)*230), y=Round(v*(1/12000)*187) (ld80 @004c6bd0/@004c6d74 = exactly 1/12000); change-test samples the response at 12000V vs the 9999 activation sentinel; XOR op for tick/cursor move-by-redraw; destroyed branch centres edestryd.pcc and revives via own vtbl+0xC (BecameActive, slot 3 of PTR_0051a1fc -- vtable-dump verified). - The vtbl+0x3C sampler identified from the binary vtables: Emitter slot 15 @004bb42c = sqrt(P(v)/2.0e8), P @004bb3f4 = damageFraction*v^2*0.5* energyCoefficient; Myomers slot 15 @004b8f94 = sqrt(AvailableOutput(v)*3.6/ 350). FUN_004dd138 == sqrt (part_015.c:4026): myomers' fabs reading corrected, GetSpeedReading renamed SeekVoltageResponse. Port dispatch via complete-type bridges BTSeekVoltageSample/BTMyomersSeekSample + BTSubsystemDestroyed (databinding rule). - Emitter's AUTHENTIC attribute table recovered (binary @0x511dd4, ids 0x1D-0x25) and published: Laser*/Seek*/OutputVoltage@0x414 (currentLevel, RAW volts -- the live-cursor feed). Field renames per the table: 0x3F8 minSeekVoltageIndex / 0x3FC maxSeekVoltageIndex (static_assert-locked). The MechWeapon 0x1D OutputVoltage PORT ALIAS retired (binary table ends 0x1C; Find walks lowest-id-first, the alias shadowed the authentic row). PPC::DefaultData -> Emitter::GetAttributeIndex(). - mech4: BT_PRESET_HOLD=<n> (freeze the #9 preset cycler after n pulses) for steady-state pixel verification; BT_SEEK_LOG diag. Verified live (BLH, autofire): both #10 repro pairs held ghost-free for minutes (SYS09->SYS10 PPC, SYS02->SYS04 ERMed, SYS05->SYS06 Myomers); curves draw with live cursors; one replot per activation; quad panels/J-K-L/sec panel un-regressed.

Audio Phase 1 (AUDIO_FIDELITY F3/F4/F10/F15/F18/F20 + KB): the quick wins
F3 distance: alDistanceModel(AL_NONE); restored the commented authored distance multiply in Dynamic3D::CalculateSourceVolumeScale, added the same override to Static3D, dropped the (now inert) AL_MAX_DISTANCE writes. Far battle audio follows the authored knee/rolloff curve again, and the volume cull / voice steal / ducking chains are distance-aware. F4 volume law: AL_GAIN = volume_scale^2 at all 3 per-frame sites (Direct/ Dyn3D/Static3D) -- the GM CC7 squared curve; linear was ~+6 dB at mids. F10 doppler: alDopplerFactor(0) (AL's model ran wrong constants + sign- inverted velocity: approaching sources pitched DOWN); the AUTHORED dopplerCents (AUDIO.INI range/speed-of-sound model, decomp-proven consumer part_008.c:7466) now adds into the Dynamic3D pitch chain. F15 ConfigureActivePress: published at the MechSubsystem BASE (binary id 2, descriptor @0x50de5c -> +0x110); renamed the misnamed vitalSubsystemIndex member (the weapon ConfigureMappables handler already drives it 0/-1). Removed the invented Sensor/Myomers duplicates and RESTORED their byte- exact layouts (0x328/0x358 allocs + asserts). MechWeapon's pinned-id pad absorbed the +1 chain shift -- which matches the binary's own numbering. F18 cook-off warning: AmmoBin FireCountdownStarted -> the existing cookOffArmed @0x18C (binary table @0x512600); the countdown klaxon can fire. F20 zoom blip: L4MechControlsMapper publishes TargetRangeExponent -> the live @0x1a4 zoom member (own table chained to MechControlsMapper). KB: replaced the bogus divisionParameters+0x10 rate read with SystemClock::GetTicksPerSecond() (FUN_0044e19c is GetFrameRate -- original audio frames were CLOCK TICKS). Regression (35s drive+fire): stable; ConfigureActivePress binds real on all 9 subsystems (idle -1, zero pad redirects); FireCountdownStarted + TargetRangeExponent bind live members; attrnull 53 -> 41; chirp still dead; footfalls still fire (gain now correctly squared).

Audio: KILL THE CHIRP -- ConfigureActivePress backed real (idle -1) on Sensor+Myomers (task #50)
The obnoxious always-on clicking was the cockpit CONFIGURE-MODE ticker: an
authored looped sequence gated by an AudioIntegerTrigger with threshold -1 on
<subsystem>.ConfigureActivePress (the held-configure-button index; -1 = none).
The attribute was one of the inert-pad redirects -- the pad reads 0 = "button 0
held forever" -> the ticker Start-fired at load and pulsed 2.7/s eternally.
Found via [sendcfg]/[seqstart] traces: the first seq start immediately follows
the trigcfg(thresh=-1, onID=Start) construction on the pad address.
Fix: real int configureActivePress = -1 APPENDED to Sensor ("Avionics") and
Myomers, registered in their attribute tables. Both classes are byte-exact
factory allocs, so the sizeof locks AND the placement-new alloc constants are
bumped TOGETHER (Sensor 0x328->0x32C, Myomers 0x358->0x35C) -- the tripwire
caught a mid-layout insert (seekVoltage@0x330 shift) and a fixed-alloc overrun
before they shipped; member moved to the true tail. Wiring the live value
(EnterConfiguration/ExitConfiguration sets/clears the index) restores the
authored hold-to-configure tick later; idle -1 is the correct silent state.
VERIFIED: ProgramButton01 plays ZERO times (was the 2.7/s chirp);
ConfigureActivePress binds real (vtbl=FFFFFFFF = the -1); FootFallInt at 0.98
gain; stable.

Gauges: the CLOSEOUT wave -- radar pips, Myomers dedup, attribute parity, ledger sweep (tasks #14-#17)
TASK #17 -- AUTHENTIC RADAR SYMBOLOGY (the cross-blip stand-in retired). The recon proved the 'missing pip raster set' never existed as BT game code: pips are the ENGINE's L4GaugeImage vector-stroke system (T0 source in tree, L4GAUIMA.cpp == FUN_0046f0c0 line-for-line), the 'pip table' is L4Warehouse:: gaugeImageBin keyed by Entity::resourceID, and BTL4.RES ships 110 type-0x12 shapes (every mech/vehicle/building/tree). The six btl4rdr stubs are wired to the real facilities: contacts draw their authentic model silhouettes with LOD selection, the target gets the binary's 4px-inflated box highlight, and player-name labels resolve via Mission::GetSmallNameBitmap (the prebuilt 64x16 egg rasters keyed by the player's bitmapindex). DECODED: the invented 'VideoObject' was Entity::owningPlayer all along (+0x190; nameID = playerBitmapIndex@0x1E0, target = BTPlayer::objectiveMech@0x284 -- new bridge BTPlayerObjectiveMechOf); the 'LabelledEntity' class is Landmark (cultural.h; label path dormant -- no landmark content ships, no runtime landmarkID writer). The L4GREND BT_DEV_GAUGES warehouse guard is removed (its AV had a different culprit, below); resource type 18 corrected to GaugeImageStream in decomp-reference (was mislabeled 'ModelList'). TASK #14 -- the Myomers ODR duplicate ELIMINATED: the powersub.cpp/hpp 'Myomers' (classID 0xBC3 -- actually Sensor) is retired whole; it duplicated ?DefaultData@Myomers@@ against the real class (dumpbin-verified) and /FORCE picked the winner by link order. The real Myomers (0xBC6) now chains PoweredSubsystem's handler set (ids 4-8) and publishes its SEVEN binary attributes (@00511588: SpeedEffect/Current/Recommended/Min/MaxSeekVoltage- Index/SeekVoltage/OutputVoltage) -- the old empty unchained index starved the Myomer engineering panel of every resolve. TASK #16 -- attribute parity: MechWeapon publishes the FULL binary table @0x511890 (11 entries; ids renumbered to binary truth -- the port aliases had squatted the binary's DistanceToTarget/TargetWithinRange ids; the streamed TriggerState 0x13 binding unchanged). Binary names resolved two TODO members: pipState -> estimatedReadyTime (attr 0x1A), and the EXT-model flag is the binary's RearFiring (0x1B). ThermalSight LightState published. HUD (offset conflicts) + missile-side tables (id encoding suspect) documented for a re-dump instead of publishing blind. THE CRASH THIS EXPOSED [T2, cdb-verified]: gotcha #11's dense-table gap is a LATENT AV, not a guaranteed one -- the old table's 0x0D..0x12 gap (task #5) survived on heap luck; the renumber reshuffled allocations and Find() AV'd on a garbage entryName in WeaponCluster's PercentDone resolve. Fixed with five named PAD entries (the mech.cpp attrPad idiom) + a static_assert locking the pad base to PoweredSubsystem::NextAttributeID. Gotcha #11 amended with the proof. TASK #15 -- stale-ledger sweep: GAUGE_COMPOSITE ('composite not yet built', Reservoir shadow, PlayerStatus/vehicleSubSystems 'remaining', valve-dormant- until-0xBD3, sensor guard, the superseded 'Heat MFD near-static' reframe -- all banner-corrected), gauges-hud frontmatter, L4VB16 + powersub comments. Verified live: 50/50 config attribute bindings resolve, 0 NULLs, 0 parse skips, mech spawns and simulates 31/31 subsystems, no cross-blip fallbacks, the pip cache fills through entity registration without the old guard.

Cockpit: the CONFIG-MODE weapon-regrouping session + the live-play fire fixes (tasks #6+#11)
TASK #6 -- the pod's in-cockpit weapon regrouping, fully reconstructed and live-verified (hold-configure -> tap fire button -> toggle membership -> release-commit): - MechWeapon handlers id 9 ConfigureMappables @004b9550 / id 10 ChooseButton @004b95b8 (binary table @0x511860; the old "Myomers fns" mislabel swept) + the GetMessageHandlers() accessor chain through Emitter/ProjectileWeapon/ MissileLauncher/GAUSS/PPC (empty per-class sets swallowed dispatch). - Mapper vtable truth: +0x38 EnterConfiguration / +0x3C ExitConfiguration / +0x40,+0x44 AddOrErase evt/dir. No "secondary vtable @0050f498", no "CreateTemporaryEventMappings" virtual (RP-name drift; swept incl CLASSMAP). L4 Enter/Exit rebuilt complete: StartMappableButtonsConfigure (the NonMapping 0x10000 <-> Mapping 0x8000 mode flip + the gauge's active-weapon latch) + the held-button re-arm + the 4 fire-button temp maps; only the RIO mapper implements the toggle (Thrustmaster no-ops = can't regroup). - MechSubsystem +0xE8/+0xEC corrected to controlDestination/controlMessageID (ex hostEntity/subsystemId2 mislabel); MechWeapon ctor defaults the destination to &fireImpulse (@004b99a8). - ConfigMapGauge state loop reconstructed (PE-recovered DAT_00518eb4 table; buttonGroup GetMapState sampler -- the "needs ModeManager" guard rationale was wrong). Finding [T1]: the shipped binary NEVER enables this gauge (no SetColor caller) -- authentically dormant; BT_CONFIGMAP=1 is the dev enable. - Dev harness: HOLD 'G' opens the session (BT_CONFIG_SLOT picks the weapon); BT_CONFIG_TEST scripts a headless verify. @004afbc4 corrected to its real Fail-trap body (the guessed AddOrErase(NULL) body would corrupt groups). - Bonus [T1]: the binary MechWeapon ATTRIBUTE table has ELEVEN entries (PercentDone..WeaponState) -- "TriggerState is the only one" was wrong. TASK #11 -- the user-reported live-play regressions (both real bugs): - PHANTOM FIRE: the mech4 bring-up shot block painted an explosion at the victim on its OWN 0.3s cadence whenever fire was held -- desynced once the authentic recharges landed. Retired (the real impact visual flows from each discharge via the messmgr SubmitExplosion). - WEAPON BRICKING (the "cuts out" bug): the Loading->Loaded snap window (+-0.01 around seekV) assumes the pod's LOCKED 60 fps; one port dt-spike jumps it, the byte-verified >1.0 clamp (_DAT_004ba830=0) zeroes readiness, and the weapon sticks in Loading at level ~10000 forever (observed live). Fixed with pod-frame (1/60s) sub-stepping of the binary's own Loading tick -- also fixes the I^2R integral over-heating generators on big steps. NEW GOTCHA CLASS recorded: reconstruction-gotchas #12 (frame-pacing trap). - Duty-cycle measured (max-rate autofire): generators equilibrate in the degradation band (recharge stretch ~3.5-4.4x), the FailureHeat breaker never trips solo, PPCs sustain ~11.8-damage full-charge fire. The slow kill pacing and recharge gaps are the AUTHENTIC heat economy; the pilot's counters (this regrouping UI, generator reassignment, coolant valves) are the reconstruction queue.

Combat: AUTHENTIC weapon groups -- streamed per-mech button bindings + the real fire chain (task #5)
The recovered system: fire channels = LBE4ControlsManager buttonGroups (0x40/0x45/0x46/0x47); default groups = the per-mech type-6 controls-map resource in BTL4.RES, installed by the T0 CreateStreamedMappings the port already called -- it needed only the TriggerState attribute (id 0x13 PINNED to the binary value; fireImpulse@0x31C is the binary's TriggerState) and an input feed. Keyboard/harness now push press/release edges into the button groups; the gBT*Trigger bypasses, per-type keyboard split and 1,0 pulse hack are retired -- weapons sharing a button fire TOGETHER (madcat Trigger = 4 weapons). Myomers @4b9550/@4b95b8 misattribution corrected (they are MechWeapon ConfigureMappables/ChooseButton). Verified 2-node: kill through the authentic chain (12 hits vs ~36 pre-groups). Config-mode session (regrouping UI) = the remaining stage, KB-scoped. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

P7: subsystem-tree alarm unification -- the whole PoweredSubsystem weapon/power subtree is byte-exact
The reconstruction modeled the binary's 0x54 AlarmIndicator (FUN_0041b9ec) with undersized
stand-ins (AlarmIndicator==ReconAlarm==4B; HeatAlarm==8B) across the entire subsystem tree, so
every field above an alarm sat at the wrong compiled offset. Retype every such stand-in to
GaugeAlarm54(0x54) and de-phantom each class against its ctor, so the whole PoweredSubsystem
subtree becomes byte-exact. An 8-agent read-only decomp-mapping workflow decoded every ctor
first; then hands-on implementation. static_assert-locked chain (verified vs the raw ctors):
HeatSink 0x1D0
-> PoweredSubsystem 0x31C retype electricalStateAlarm@0x264 + modeAlarm@0x2B8 @004b0f74
-> MechWeapon 0x3F0 retype weaponAlarm@0x350; delete 5 phantom tail fields @004b99a8
-> Emitter 0x478 delete outputVoltage/beamLengthRatio/firingArmed aliases
+ beamHit*/beamColor/beamHitData/energyRampTime phantoms;
retype beamOrientation EulerAngles->Quaternion(16B) @004bb120
-> PPC 0x478 (no own fields) @004bb888
PoweredSubsystem -> Sensor 0x328 (no alarm; 3 own fields) @004b1d18
PoweredSubsystem -> Myomers 0x358 (no alarm) @004b8fec
New systemic bug-class instances fixed (added to the CLAUDE.md checklist):
* alias field - Emitter outputVoltage==inherited rechargeLevel@0x320; beamLengthRatio==
beamScale.z@0x434; firingArmed==inherited useConfiguredPip@0x3E0
* phantom field - MechWeapon segmentReference/pipSegment/hasTarget/targetPoint/muzzlePoint
(past 0x3F0); Emitter beamHitPoint/beamImpact/beamImpactScalar/beamColor/
beamHitData/energyRampTime (binary writes inherited damageData/voltageScale
or the value is a method local)
Non-layout fixes required in the same wave:
* outputVoltage->rechargeLevel also in the compiled GAUSS.CPP:74/93 (external readers of the
removed Emitter field -- must grep EVERY TU, not just the class's own .cpp)
* MechWeapon::GetMuzzlePoint reimplemented faithfully (removed muzzlePoint collided with
Emitter's own fields at 0x3F0) via a BTResolveWeaponMuzzle void* bridge in mech4.cpp,
resolving the weapon's mount segment (inherited this+0xdc) through the owner segment table
* DetachFromVoltageSource fixed to set electricalStateAlarm not modeAlarm (raw @004b0e30
writes the 0x264 alarm)
The vehicleSubSystems aux-screen gauge raw reads (btl4gau2.cpp:868/952 at subsystem+0x2b8/+0x278)
and the Sensor RadarPercent path now read the CORRECT byte offsets (garbage under the short layout).
Verified: combat DESTROYED-in-8, 28 shots, 0 crashes, heat heatEnergy=1.34e7, every static_assert
lock passes, heapcheck-clean through construction (the phase the isolated PoweredSubsystem retype
had overflowed). LESSON: a factory-bridge runtime Check(sizeof<=alloc) does NOT fail the build --
only a static_assert sizeof lock catches alloc overflow at compile time.

P7: byte-exact re-base of the CORE heat leaf (HeatSink/Condenser/Reservoir/Generator/Myomers)
The reconstruction modeled the binary's shared alarm/connection types with undersized
stand-ins, sliding every field above them low (the 72-byte auxScreenNumber gap). Fix the
foundational heat-leaf classes byte-exact + static_assert-lock them, from the ctor decomp:
Shared types corrected:
* SubsystemConnection 4 -> 0xC (binary link node FUN_004af9cf; FUN_00417ab4 derefs +8)
* GaugeAlarm54 = 0x54 (real AlarmIndicator FUN_0041b9ec; STATUS level at +0x14,
so subsystem+0x184 == heatAlarm+0x14 == GetLevel())
WatcherGaugeAlarm now typedefs GaugeAlarm54 (Watcher branch locks stay valid).
Byte-exact + locked (ctor-verified):
* HeatSink heatEnergy@0x158 linkedSinks@0x164 heatAlarm@0x170 resource@0x1C4
pendingHeat@0x1C8, sizeof 0x1D0 (@004adda0)
* Condenser valveState@0x1D0 condenserAlarm@0x1DC (@004ae568)
* Reservoir reservoirAlarm@0x1D0 ... squirtEfficiency@0x22C, sizeof 0x230 (@4aef78)
* Generator stateAlarm@0x1FC, sizeof 0x250 (@004b225c)
* Myomers phantom moverConnection tail removed (fits 0x358)
Three systemic bug classes fixed (added to the checklist in CLAUDE.md / HARD_PROBLEMS.md):
* alias field - a subclass member re-declaring an inherited slot the ctor reuses
(Condenser refrigerationOutput==massScale@0x160; Reservoir
coolantCapacity==thermalCapacity@0x128) -> use the inherited name
* alarm-interior - a value read at alarm+0x14 modeled as a separate member
(HeatSink heatState@0x184, Reservoir injectActive@0x1e4)
-> route to alarm.GetLevel()
* phantom field - a member past the object end (Generator shortFlag@0x25C is really
*(owner+0x190)+0x25c the msg-manager, @004b0efc; Myomers
moverConnection@0x110 a write-only base slot) -> remove it
Heat conduction now reads the REAL heatEnergy=1.34e7 (not garbage); combat DESTROYED-in-8,
0 crashes, heapcheck-clean through construction.
REMAINING (measured; a distinct larger task): making PoweredSubsystem byte-exact grows it
+0x98 and cascades into MechWeapon/Emitter/PPC/Sensor/Myomers -- all model the 0x54
AlarmIndicator with 4-byte ReconAlarm / 8-byte HeatAlarm stand-ins and are short +
phantom-tailed; retyping without byte-exacting them overflows the Emitter alloc (heap
corruption). PoweredSubsystem kept on HeatAlarm(8) stand-ins (marked) pending a
subsystem-tree ALARM UNIFICATION. See docs/HARD_PROBLEMS.md P7.

subsystems: un-stub Wave 4 readouts + Wave 6 Myomers (10->15 factory cases)
WAVE 4 (standalone readouts) -- Sensor(0xBC3)/Searchlight(0xBD8)/ ThermalSight(0xBDE)/AmmoBin(0xBCB) un-stubbed via Create<Class>Subsystem bridges + Torso-style de-shim (drop cross-family shadow fields, redirect accessors to the real inherited base, static_assert layout locks). - FIX: Searchlight/ThermalSight ctors gated their Performance on the shadow segmentFlags(=0) so it NEVER installed; switched to owner->simulationFlags. - AmmoBin: retype ammoAlarm HeatAlarm->WatcherGaugeAlarm(0x54) + drop the statusState@0x40 shadow -> exact 0x22C layout. - Guard HeatWatcher::WatchSimulation against the unresolved watchedLink (null-deref exposed once these sims run; faithful fix = resolve the link). - Heat-leaf branch (Sensor) is not byte-exact -> overflow-lock only. WAVE 6 (Myomers 0xBC6, mover-coupled) -- structural un-stub, gated BT_MYOMERS (default on; =0 -> Actuator stub). Wired INERT: MyomersSimulation early-returns (advanced-damage gate stubbed) + no-op mover feed, so the live JointedMover is untouched and the gait cannot regress. De-shim drops the owner*/segmentFlags shims to fit the exact-0x358 alloc. Authentic mover/heat coupling deferred (needs messmgr 0xBD3 + reconciling the mover feed with the gait cutover). Verified: BLH tick 20->27, Mad Cat 24, combat DESTROYED un-regressed, locomotion un-regressed, 0 crashes, 0 heap detections under BT_HEAPCHECK.

Initial commit: bt411 -- standalone Windows BattleTech (Tesla 4.10 port)
Clean, self-contained extraction of the BattleTech-specific work from the
reverse-engineering workspace -- engine + game + content + build, with nothing
from Red Planet or the raw archive dumps. Builds green (Win32) and runs the
single-player drive->animate->target->fire->damage->destroy loop out of the box.
Layout:
engine/ MUNGA + MUNGA_L4 shared 2007 engine, carrying our BT render/loader
work (bgfload/L4D3D/L4VIDEO: BSL bit-slice decode, LOD/ground/shadow
models) + image codec; the minimal rp/ headers the audio HAL needs
game/ reconstructed BT logic + surviving-original BT source + fwd shims
+ WinMain launcher
content/ full runtime tree (BTL4.RES, VIDEO/, GAUGE/, AUDIO/, eggs, BTDPL.INI)
docs/ format specs + reconstruction ledgers
reference/ raw Ghidra pseudocode (recon source-of-truth) + decomp exporter
tools/ MP console emulator + map/resource scanners
One top-level CMake builds munga_engine lib + bt410_l4 game lib + btl4.exe.
All paths relativized (186 fwd shims + ~437 CMake abs paths -> repo-relative);
DXSDK is the one external, overridable via -DDXSDK. Verified: builds to a
byte-identical 2.27MB exe and runs combat (TARGET DESTROYED, 0 crashes) against
the bundled content.
