Gitea #48 ROOT-CAUSED + FIXED: MFD "stray blocks / misplaced lamps" = uninitialized translation-table entries leaking pixels into other displays' bit-planes
The conviction was empirical, not theoretical: a new write-site trap
(BT_PLANE_AUDIT) in the seven L4VB16 drawing primitives logs any draw whose
color carries bits outside its port's plane mask -- the exact cross-display
corruption condition (Replace ORs an unmasked color; Or/Xor ignore the mask
entirely; And clears foreign planes). A quiet solo session produced 15-30
leaks per minute:
[plane] PORT 'sec' pixmap draw at(0,0) idx 217 entry=0xffffff00 mask=0x3f
[plane] LEAK DrawPixelMap8[table] at(639,0) color=0xffffff00 mask=0x3f leak=0xff00
THE DEFECT: L4GraphicsPort::translationTable[256] is never initialized in the
ctor, and BuildSecondaryTranslation fills only the entries its BitWrangler
reaches -- 2^numberOfBits: 64 for the sec plane (mask 0x3F), 4 for the overlay
(0xC0). Entries above that stay heap garbage. Every draw resolves color
through this table, and the PIXMAP path indexes it with raw pixel values
0..255: the 480x640 radar background carries pixel index 217, whose garbage
entry's high bits (0xFF00 = ALL EIGHT MFD planes) were stamped into the shared
640x480 buffer -- invisible on the culprit page (the in-plane bits happened
dark) and visible as bright fragments at the same coordinates on every OTHER
display. That is the operator's screenshot exactly: the same-position blips
on Mfd1+Mfd2 and the Heat-display block.
FIX (engine, both layers):
* zero translationTable in the L4GraphicsPort ctor (plane-neutral default);
* BuildSecondaryTranslation now cycles the in-plane pattern across entries
[2^bits..255] -- high-index art degrades to its (index mod 2^bits) colour
IN-PLANE and can never leak. The 1995 binary ships the SAME 64-entry fill
and survived on 6-bit art discipline; garbage is not a preservable
behaviour, so the cycle-fill is a guarded PORT deviation (documented).
A/B PROOF: same probe, 60s -- 0 leaks after the fix (15-30/min before).
sim3 3-pod regression: zero crashes.
SECOND real defect found + fixed en route: sessions configure the CAMERA seat
first ("cameraInit" -- which includes the MISSION-REVIEW context:
configure(0, sec, 0, 0x00FF, native, rgb, mrpal.pcc), a DirectColor context
whose translation tables legitimately hold full RGB565 values spanning all 16
plane bits), and the viewpoint swap to the mech re-configured WITHOUT tearing
that tree down (btl4app's s_gaugeTreeBuilt latch treats the mech build as the
first). The orphaned review gauges kept executing through stale DirectColor
ports. BTL4GaugeRenderer::ConfigureForModel now overrides (ConfigureForModel
made virtual in L4GREND.h) and tears the prior entity-bound tree down before
every rebuild -- safe on first build, and the review screen rebuilds the same
way when the seat returns to the camera.
Also logged (open-questions): the review-screen PlayerStatus panels read the
compiled player at RAW BINARY OFFSETS (+0x1FC vehicle / +0x1C8 score /
+0x1C4 alive-dead box) -- the databinding trap, dormant until the review
screen runs; bridge before enabling the review.
Ruled out along the way (with evidence): the pilot-list label/erase geometry
(erase box 128x32 covers the 64x16 name rasters), the radar name labels
(view-level ClipImage clips them), PlayerStatus in-game execution ([ps] probe:
never runs in-game), and the PNAME bitmap dimensions (egg generator emits
64x16 exactly).
Why it "started with the comms feature" (#43): that wave registered the new
gauge classes with the config interpreter, letting more of the authored page
furniture parse and draw than before -- the leaking high-index pixmaps rode in
with it. [T3 correlation detail; the leak + fix are T2 live-verified.]
Diagnostics kept (env-gated): BT_PLANE_AUDIT (the leak trap, now a permanent
regression tripwire), BT_PS_LOG, the port-level pixmap identity trap.

Gitea #47 COMPLETE: the ENG-button attention FLASH is live (jam / bay fire) -- MechTech status scan + BTL4GaugeAlarmManager + lamp chain, all from the binary
The pod behaviour Cyd described -- "on a jam or bay fire the display eng button
for the system flashes" -- is authored data + a five-stage chain, now running:
MechTech::TechnicalAssistance (@004ad33c, per frame)
edge-scans every monitored subsystem's GetStatusFlags() 7-bit condition
mask (TechStatusType: Destroyed 0, Damaged 1, CoolantLeaking 2,
Overheating 3, AmmoBurning 4, Jammed 5, BadPower 6)
-> Start/StopEntityAlarmMessage (@00436688 id 7 size 0x20 / @004366b8 id 8
size 0x1C; broadcast @004364e4; port shape: direct
Start/StopEntityAlarmImplementation calls on the gauge renderer)
-> GaugeAlarmManager::Activate(alarmModel) -- alarmModel = MechTech+0x100 =
the 'mechalrm' ModelList (id 83) -> SearchList(83, type 31) -> the baked
GaugeAlarmStream (id 331, 11 items {condition, lampCode}), decoded:
Destroyed -> gotoEngineering + engCooling + engBusMode
CoolantLeaking -> gotoEngineering + engCooling
AmmoBurning -> gotoEngineering + engEject
Jammed -> gotoEngineering + engEject
BadPower -> gotoEngineering + engBusMode
-> BTL4GaugeAlarmManager::ReadGaugeAlarmStreamItem -- THE REAL BODY, from
@004cc2fc + helpers @004cc108/148/1a0/264/27c + tables @0051cf1c..0x51d084
(gotoEngineering 0x80 = the subsystem's QUAD-SELECT bezel button via
lamp[aux]/mode[aux] tables; 0x81+ descend the eng-page bank; Condenser /
Generator specials on CoolantLeaking; <0x80 = the heat-bank fixed map).
btl4galm.cpp's old bodies were admitted fabrications and its provenance
note ("no override body exists in the image") was wrong -- corrected.
-> LampManager::FindLamp (@00444c80) -> Lamp::SetAlertState (@00444e64, a
COUNTER so stacked alarms hold the flash) -> L4Lamp::NotifyOfStateChange
emits RIO flashFast states 0x37/0x13 (== T0 L4LAMP.cpp:234-239) -> the
pod's physical lamps AND the glass panels (PadRIO IS rioPointer there).
FOUR load-bearing defects found and fixed en route -- each independently fatal
to the feature:
1. HeatableSubsystem's Derivation chained Subsystem directly, SKIPPING
MechSubsystem (written before the WAVE-1 re-basing) -- so EVERY subsystem
on both family branches failed IsDerivedFrom(MechSubsystem), which is
exactly MechTech's monitor filter: the status scan watched NOTHING.
2. MechSubsystem::GetStatusFlags was non-virtual (binary: vtable slot 12) --
the scan's MechSubsystem* call bound statically to the base tier and the
weapon bits could never surface.
3. ProjectileWeapon::GetStatusFlags sat in a Ghidra export gap -- raw-disasm
@004bbf88: base | 0x20 (weaponAlarm==5 Jammed) | 0x10 (linked bin
cookOffArmed@0x18C AmmoBurning). The port had "defer to base".
4. Mech::Reset's respawn sweep blanket-cast every roster entry to
MechSubsystem and called RespawnRepair -- wrong for the Subsystem-level
entries (MechTech 0xBDC, SubsystemMessageManager 0xBD3). On MechTech the
recon damageZone slot lands on its subsystemMonitors chain head: NULL
while the scan was broken (fix #1's bug MASKED this one), but the moment
the monitors populated, RespawnRepair virtual-called through a
SubsystemMonitor as if it were a DamageZone -> load-time crash in
StateIndicator::SetState (caught with cdb; call [edx+14h] on code bytes).
The sweep now filters IsDerivedFrom(MechSubsystem) before the cast.
Also: GUID identities pinned -- 0x50f4bc = PoweredSubsystem::ClassDerivations
(via @004b1208 = its TestInstance; btl4gau2's two "Generator" comments were
wrong, swept), 0x50fb60 = Generator's. A shadow-field instance documented for
the deferred de-shadow: MechSubsystem::damageZone re-declares the PUBLIC engine
Subsystem::damageZone (SUBSYSTM.h:159) -- mechtech's naive `sub->damageZone`
read the never-written engine member (0 monitors again); now reads the recon
member via GetDamageZoneProxy(). Logged in open-questions.
Wiring: BTL4GaugeRenderer now constructs + assigns the BTL4GaugeAlarmManager
(the base ctor NULLs it and Activate Check()s it); MechTech's Report*/
StatusMessageSink stubs are real; alarmModel confirmed baked (= 83) at runtime.
VERIFIED LIVE (scratchpad/lampflash.py, BT_LAMP_LOG chain trace):
[techstat] MechTech id 32 monitors 29 subsystems, alarmModel 83
[techstat] LRM15_1 condition 4 SET (alarmModel 83) <- bay fire armed

Gitea #46: ammo bay fire now DETONATES and KILLS (+ #47 fire icon) -- three stacked kill-switches removed, the fuse decoded, and a vptr-alias corruption caught by regression
Field report (night 3): "two ammo bay fires and no death" (Cyd + RajelAran; one
purged, one left burning). Root cause = THREE independent kill-switches stacked
on the same path, all in ammobin.cpp:
1. `GameClock::Now() { return 0; }` -- `cookOffTime < Now()` was `0 < 0`, so
an ARMED bay fire never detonated.
2. `InjectHeat(void*) {}` -- the detonation body was a no-op.
3. The bin's Damage record was never stamped -- 0 damage of type 0 (which the
mech TakeDamage handler drops) even if 1+2 had fired.
THE FUSE (raw disasm, scratchpad/disammo.py): the old "RandomDelay" was a Ghidra
carve artifact -- FUN_004dcd94 is __ftol and the export DROPPED the caller's x87
expression. The real bytes @004bd450: fld 10.0 / fmul [ticksPerSecond] /
fadd 0.5 / __ftol -- a FIXED 10.0-SECOND fuse in clock ticks. New gotcha #19
(reconstruction-gotchas.md) documents the __ftol export blind spot.
THE DAMAGE RECORD: bin+0x1F0..0x21C is a real engine `Damage` (FUN_0041db7c IS
Damage::Damage(), byte-matched to T0 DAMAGE.cpp). The linked ProjectileWeapon's
ctor @004bc3fc stamps it from weapon->damageData @0x3A8 via
owner->roster[0x128][res+0x1C0] -- projweap.cpp's old comment called this "the
bin's HUD display block ... wired in the AmmoBin family"; both halves were wrong
and it was wired nowhere. Now stamped (before MissileLauncher's ctor divides by
missileCount -- a missile bin authentically holds the per-SALVO amount).
THE DETONATION (@004ac274 = MechSubsystem::DistributeCriticalHit -- the old
"HeatableSubsystem::InjectHeat" label was wrong, and the old reconstruction
iterated a stand-in CriticalChain whose First()/Next() returned 0):
statusAlarm pulse Exploding(2)->Destroyed(1) (slot 13 = the printSimulationState
state PRINT @004ac8c0, not an "explosion notify"), own private zone pinned
destroyed, then collect the mech DamageZones whose crit entries plug the bin
(the binary filters plug classID 0x4E = DamageZoneClassID -- VDATA.h idx 78,
cross-checked via idx 28 = AudioStateTrigger), split the amount evenly, and send
the OWNER one full Entity::TakeDamageMessage per zone: inflictingEntity = SELF,
damageZone = the zone index, inflictingSubsystemID = the bin (the message-
manager explosion-bundling key, ENTITY3.h's own NOTE), printing the binary's
exact "ammo explosion damaging <zoneName>" @0050df61.
Port shape: Mech::AmmoExplosionFanOut (mechdmg.cpp) behind a databinding bridge;
guarded deviation: zoneCount==0 warns instead of the binary's unguarded divide.
CriticalChain/CriticalEntry stand-ins DELETED from mechrecon.hpp.
VERIFIED LIVE (BT_BAYTEST hook = message 1, the crit-induced arm channel):
scratchpad/baytest.py : arm -> 10s -> "20 rounds x 35 = 700 (type 2)" ->
"ammo explosion damaging dz_ltorso" -> zone cascade -> mech DESTROYED
(authentic death list).
scratchpad/baypurge.py: arm -> eject-hold purge -> "bay fire EXTINGUISHED
(bin empty)", no detonation.
scratchpad/sim3.py : the HEAT route arms organically in combat (overheated
AFC100), detonates "11 x 25 = 275 (type 1)" split across dz_larm + dz_lgun.
BAYBOOM matchlog record added for MP field forensics.
FIX-OF-THE-FIX (caught by the sim3 regression, would have shipped a crash):
MechSubsystem's ReconDamageZone proxy puts structureLevel at OFFSET 0 -- which
ALIASES THE REAL DamageZone's VTABLE POINTER (the private zone is `new
DamageZone`, mechsub.cpp:154; mechsub.hpp:260 documents the alias). My first
DistributeCriticalHit kept the old body's `damageZone->structureLevel = 1.0f`
and OVERWROTE THE ZONE'S VPTR with 0x3F800000; the respawn sweep's virtual
SetGraphicState (vtable+0xC) then called through it -> AV at 0x3f80000c in
RespawnRepair, one frame after a bay-fire death. ALL EIGHT proxy-view sites in
mechsub.cpp swept to the engine view (((DamageZone*)damageZone)->damageLevel
@0x158) -- including two silently-wrong LIVE readers: GetStatusFlags (vptr as
float -> always "intact") and ApplyDamageAndMeasure (the crit cascade's
measure). Ruled out first by evidence: the weapon->bin stamps were all clean
(six stamps, all classID 0xbcb, logged).
#47 (half 1 -- the FIRE ICON): BallisticWeaponCluster::Execute @004c9a38 reads
bin+0x18C = cookOffArmed into the btefire.pcc TwoState, and while armed computes
(Now - cookOffTime)/ticksPerSecond -- the COOK-OFF COUNTDOWN -- into the numeric
beside it. The old reconstruction misread 0x18C as "the reload state" and
bridged the icon to BTAmmoBinFeeding, so it blinked on every feed and never lit
on a bay fire (RajelAran: "it doesn't"). Now driven by the
BTAmmoBinCookOffArmed/CookOffTime complete-type bridges. [T2 -- the data path
is rig-verified; the pixels await the next live session.]
#47 (half 2 -- the ENG-BUTTON FLASH): fully mapped, deliberately NOT built this
session. The authored data SHIPS (BTL4.RES carries exactly one type-31
GaugeAlarmStream); the chain is alarm SetLevel -> gauge-watcher socket ->
Renderer msg 7 -> GaugeAlarmManager::Activate @00448d00 (T0) -> the BTL4
override @004cc148..@004cc2fc (btl4galm.cpp's provenance note claiming "no
override body exists" is WRONG -- corrected in-file) -> LampManager::FindLamp
@00444c80 -> Lamp::SetAlertState @00444e64 (flash counter) -> the L4 flush
@00474e94 emitting flashFast states 0x37/0x13 (== T0 L4LAMP.cpp:234-239).
Missing: the override bodies, the gauge-watcher sender, the aux-button lamps.
3-piece plan in context/open-questions.md.
Also logged: HandleMessage is vtable slot 8/9 in the binary but NON-virtual
across 10 reconstruction classes (bit the BT_BAYTEST hook; typed call used, gap
documented in open-questions).
KB: combat-damage.md (the full cook-off section), decomp-reference.md (the

Gitea #44: the reticle TARGET NAME PLATE (PNAME1-8) -- the target's callsign under the crosshair
Reconstructed the last deferred piece of the 1995 reticle, decoded from the Execute disassembly @004cdcf0 [T1]: - selection: target_mech+0x190 (owning BTPlayer) -> player+0x1e0 (playerBitmapIndex), 1-based into the mesh table at this+0x2e8 - placement: re-placed every frame the aim moves -- scale 0.12 uniform, translate (K*retPos.x, K*retPos.y - 0.08, -1.0), K = 1/2.8 (the x87 long double @0x4cee64) -- so the label TRACKS THE AIM POINT, not screen centre - visibility: the LOCK attribute (this+0x184, cached +0x188) AND an owning player; reticle-off / simple-X also hide it - art: the plate quad UV-addresses a shared 128x64 bitslice texmap whose texels the pod OVERWROTE each mission with the egg's callsign rasters (original source commented out at L4VIDEO.cpp:5682-5710) -- the baked 'PLAYER n' art in BMAP.BSL is only the shipped fallback. Material colour is a neutral (0.5,0.5,0.5): grey-white, not phosphor green. Port: same geometry in reticle units (0.224 below the aim point, 0.336x0.084) drawn as the target's egg callsign texture through the reticle's own MapX/MapY mapping, so it follows the world view in every layout and BT_SHOT captures it. New: dpl2d_DrawTexturedRect, BTReticleTargetPlate, BTGetPlayerNameTexture. Also: kRetCaret corrected 0.02f -> 0.025f (_DAT_004cd7f4 read from the binary; the old value was a T3 guess, 20% small). KB: gauges-hud + open-questions corrected (the chain was filed as deferred and mis-attributed to 'the 3D marker'); TWO PNAME consumers now distinguished (this plate, and CameraShipHUDRenderable's ranking window which shipped 2026-07-18); new bgf-format section on the plate atlas. Rig-verified: 2-node relay, BT_GOTO=enemy -> '[hud] name plate: bmp=2 tex=1' and 'Boreas' rendered under the crosshair on the locked target. Solo clean.

Gitea #43: the Comm pilot list now shows EVERY pilot -- three stacked fixes
1. Roster count used the binary's raw entry+0x29&0x40 read on our compiled objects (databinding trap) -> garbage latched pilotCount=1. Decoded: the flag is Player::NonScoringPlayerFlag (bit 14 = Entity::NextBit); both loops now use IsScoringPlayer(). Also closes the pilotIDs[1] overrun. 2. The build-once latch races async replicant arrival (rig-proven 1-then-2): rebuild on scoring-census change [T3 accommodation, demand-latch precedent]; also un-dangles departed peers. Forensic: '[score] pilot roster built: N'. 3. Name icons were a NULL stub + zeros blank authentically -> rows invisible. Wired BTPilotNameBitmap (playerBitmapIndex -> Mission small callsign raster, the radar-label chain); replaces the raw pilot+0x1e0 key. Rig-verified: Aeolus + Boreas rows with callsigns on both nodes incl. the staggered-start race; solo unregressed (1 scoring pilot).

Gauges: trigger-config joystick is LIVE -- @004c6ee0 is LinkToEntity, not SetColor
The weapon panel's btjoy trigger-config display (ConfigMapGauge) never rendered because the reconstruction labelled @004c6ee0 as "SetColor(int)" and, finding no caller, concluded the gauge was authentically dormant (task #6), gating it behind a BT_CONFIGMAP dev env. The user challenged this (the PROGRAM/TRIGGER CONFIG button implies the display visualizes your config). Re-verification found the old analysis failed twice: the "no caller" search looked for direct calls to a VIRTUAL, and its slot math used the wrong vtable copy. The real ConfigMapGauge vtable @0051a1b8, matched against the T0 GaugeBase virtual roster (GAUGE.h), pins @004c6ee0 at slot 9 (+0x24) == GaugeBase::LinkToEntity, and @0x94 is the linkedEntity -- the Execute gate is "not yet linked", not "disabled". The engine broadcasts LinkToEntity(viewpointEntity) to every gauge at viewpoint bind (APP.cpp:1277 -> GaugeRenderer::LinkToEntity GAUGREND.cpp:3011), arming the gate -- the joystick DOES render in the shipped game, showing per-trigger mapping state (solid = mapped, matching the DOSBox reference). Port fix: SetColor(int color) -> LinkToEntity(Entity*), color -> linkedEntity, BT_CONFIGMAP dev enable deleted (the authentic path lights it). Render-verified with no env override: the joystick + mapped-trigger lamp draw on weapon panels. KB swept per the correction mandate: gauges-hud.md, decomp-reference.md, open-questions.md, GAUGE_COMPOSITE.md, VEHICLE_SUBSYSTEMS.md.

Gauges: convert generator-voltage bar to named-member bridge
The eng-page generator-voltage bar (evolt.pcc, ScalarBarGauge @004c721c) and the MyomerCluster seek-voltage graph were fed by GeneratorVoltageConnection, which walked the same dead path as the generator-letter lamp: ResolveLink(AttributePointerOf(subsystem,"InputVoltage")) -> read resolved +0x1DC == Generator::outputVoltage. The BT_DEV_GAUGES audio attribute rows shifted the chained attribute ids so AttributePointerOf no longer lands on voltageSource@0x1D0 -> the bar always read 0. New BTGeneratorVoltage(subsystem) bridge (powersub.cpp) reads the NAMED member via PoweredSubsystem::ResolveVoltageSource()->Generator::MeasuredVoltage() (outputVoltage@0x1DC), bypassing the attribute table -- same pattern as BTPowerSourceFrame/BTCoolingLoopFrame. Both GeneratorVoltageConnection callers (the ScalarBarGauge param + the MyomerCluster seekValue) now pass subsystem_in. [voltfeed]-verified: Myomers -> 10000V from GeneratorD (was 0 on the dead path). Both pod + glass builds clean. Eng-page render awaiting live playtest.

Cockpit surround: composite the gauges around the 3D view (default desktop layout)
Under BT_DEV_GAUGES the DEFAULT is now the pod-faithful cockpit surround: the 3D world CENTERED with the six gauge surfaces composited AROUND it in the single main window at 1/2 native scale, plus clickable RIO button lamps. Iterated as a visual reference with the user, then landed in the engine. - L4VB16.cpp/.h: BTCockpitLayout + BTCockpitComputeLayout (layout single source of truth, computed from the backbuffer canvas); BTDrawCockpitPanels (band fill -> button lamp quads -> 9-entry surface loop, phosphor-green mono / amber palette sec, Eng-sibling slot map -> GDI-atlas flight labels; D3DSBT_ALL state-block isolation = the floating-rocks trap); BTCockpitMouseDown/Up (client->bb hit-test + glass press/release/right-latch contract); BTApplyWorldViewport + DevGaugeDocked cockpit branches; shared BTLampBrightnessOf inline. Hooked at the top of BTDrawGaugeInset (before BT_SHOT, so shots include it). - btl4main.cpp: glass preset (cockpit default, per-display panels opt-in); mode resolution -> gBTGaugeCockpit with work-area-clamped window sizing (-res = view size); WndProc WM_L/RBUTTON routing. - L4VIDEO.cpp: BTWorldAspectOf cockpit branch (view rect on-screen aspect). - L4VIDRND.cpp: CameraShipHUDRenderable::Render made viewport-relative. Buttons = the L4GLASSWIN address banks x0.5 (Heat 0x2F, Mfd2 0x27, Comm 0x37, Mfd1 0x0F, Mfd3 0x07 red; radar rails 0x10-0x1B yellow; flight 0x38-0x47 blue, labeled). Full rect is the hit target; the surface draws over it so only the lamp edge shows.

Boresight parallax FIXED + the #4/#5 verdict instrumentation (Gitea #16, #4, #5)
PARALLAX (#16): the pick/fire ray was anchored at mech.y+5.0 (a port improvisation) while the sight line ran from the eyepoint (y=6.23) -- two parallel rays whose constant offset grew into the reported low-miss as range closed (measured ry +0.072 @50u -> +1.54 @2.7u). The decomp's sight and pick share the eye origin (HudSimulation @4b7830 chain). Fix: the viewpoint mech's cockpit eye owns the aim-camera publish in BOTH views, origin = its own eye translation; leveling + deliberate elevation untouched; chase view now converges to cockpit ballistics (V cannot change where shots land). After: pick pinned to the crosshair (ry <= 5e-6) from 50u to point-blank; 26 laser + 8 missile center-mass hits at 3/4-screen. Awaiting the reporters' approach-test. VERDICT INSTRUMENTATION (#4 closed authentic, #5 verdict posted): BT_RANGE_LOG per-frame pick tracing + BTGroundRayHitExact analytic cross-check (0/8000 arena fall-throughs; cavern 6/8400 single-frame grazes -- the 'crazy sliding' is the authentic world-pick + 500 m/s slide over depth discontinuities); BT_AUD_TAIL StopNote/fade timing + BT_FIRE_PULSE single-shot driver (the energy 'buzz' is the AUTHORED charging loop: crescendo through recharge, 1.309s authored release, measured within one frame).

Glass input audit: RIO mapper id fix (panel banks live), keyboard reconciliation
Root cause of the dead on-screen panel: MechRIOMapper's message-id enum
chained off L4MechControlsMapper::NextMessageID (=0x19), registering all 18
RIO override handlers at 0x19-0x2a while the streamed .CTL EventMapping
records carry the binary's ids -- the binary RIO table @0051dd30 re-registers
the BASE aux/zoom ids 3..0x13 (Hotbox 0x1a @0051de98). Every MFD-bank/zoom
press hit the base ConfigureMappableMessageHandler FAIL trap (26/72 buttons
dead; an abort() on a trap-armed pod). Ids now pinned to the binary
numbering + static_assert-locked (btl4mppr.hpp) -- panel goes 26 -> 52
working buttons (8 await handler reconstruction, filed on Gitea; 12 have no
streamed mapping authored = authentically inert).
Keyboard reconciliation (glass-only): the merged map -- keyboard hosts the
~20 core gameplay actions on the CONTROLS.MAP keys, the panel covers every
pod address by click (right-click = hold latch):
- W/S throttle lever, A/D pedals, Q/E twist, R/F elevation, X all-stop,
arrows drive; numpad flight cluster kept (Cyd)
- 1/2/3/4/Space/LCTRL/RCTRL fire, LALT reverse, B look-behind (0x41)
- M=0x18 mode cycle, N=0x15 display cycle, H=0x2C coolant flush (hold),
C=0x2F Condenser1 valve, G=0x0E weapon-1 configure (Mfd1-Quad-gated)
- F5-F9 = Mfd2 bank 0x27-0x24 + 0x22 (page-gated gen A-D / gen mode)
- hardcoded: ` or V = view toggle, J/K/L = Mfd1/2/3 preset-page cycle
(PadRIO edges -> gBTPresetCycle; no pod "cycle" button exists)
- PadRIO::SuppressKey: bound keys are swallowed from the typed 1995 channel
(the btinput suppression pattern, glass side) -- ends the glass double
dispatch ('w'=pilot select 0, 'a'..'g'=MFD2 presets, NUMPAD/F-key key-up
VK aliases like VK_F5=0x74='t'). Unbound keys keep their authentic
meanings (5/z presets, t-o pilot select, +/- zoom, F1/F2 align).
DISPLACED from Cyd's default bindings (each reachable on the panel or by a
bindings.txt edit -- flagging for Cyd's veto): number row -> secondary panel
(1-4 now fire), QWERTY row -> pilot keypad (dropped), arrows -> hat looks
(now drive), V/C/B -> fire 0x47/0x46/0x45 (now view/valve/look-behind),
LCTRL -> throttle-down (now fire). XInput pad section untouched.
Audit by-products (KB updated): the always-active msg-4 records identified
(0x2C = Reservoir flush, 0x29-0x2F = condenser valves, 0x1A-0x1D =
GeneratorA-D ToggleGeneratorOnOff @004b1ed0 unreconstructed); 0x13 = Mech
DuckRequest (crouch), 0x28 = BalanceCoolant; Searchlight/ThermalSight
ToggleLamp handler-sets are default-constructed EMPTY; weapon Eng-page msgs
0x3/0xb = ToggleCooling / ToggleSeekVoltage / EjectAmmo, all unwired;
unhandled messages are SILENT (no [FAIL] -- census = BT_CTRLMAP_LOG dump x
handler tables).
Verified live (build-glass2, ARENA1): panel presets/zoom/display/flush;
W drive (speedDemand 61.5, gait advances), Q turn (BAS), M -> MID, A turn
(MID), Space fires, N display, J/K/L presets, H flush drain, C valve 1->5;
suppression ('w' swallowed, 't' flows, F5-keyup swallowed); BT_SHOT frame.
Un-regression: pod build (gates OFF) compiles 0 errors, forced-walk drives,
streamed ids unchanged; CONTROLS.MAP/btinput untouched.

Fix 2 (Gitea #12): gauge tree survives the in-session mech re-stream
The pre-launch host drop/rejoin re-stream re-creates every mech at mission launch; the LOBBY-built gauge tree kept attribute pointers into the freed first-stream mechs, every widget Execute AV'd, and the BT_DEV_GAUGES SEH guard (Gauge::GuardedExecute, GAUGE.cpp:618) disabled each one PERMANENTLY (rate=0, no rebind) -- the frozen dev-gauges window of incident #12. The authentic engine flow only tears the tree down at mission transitions (Application::Shutdown -> gaugeRenderer->Shutdown() -> ShutdownImplementation -> Remove(0), APP.cpp:787 / GAUGREND.cpp:3264); the re-stream bypassed it. Fix: BTL4GaugeRenderer::TearDownForViewpointRestream() performs the ENTITY-BOUND half of that same ShutdownImplementation sequence, in order (gaugeAlarmManager->RemoveAllAlarms() -> Remove(0) -> moving/static entity grid Clear), keeping the mission-scoped state (warehouse, graphics ports, interpreter, controls-owned L4Lamps -- RemoveAllLamps would delete them behind the buttonGroup's &lamp->automaticValue registrations). Called from BTL4Application::MakeViewpointEntity before ConfigureForModel("Init") on any viewpoint RE-make -- that handler runs once per stream (the incident log's [ctrlmap] installing x2) -- so the tree rebuilds bound to the NEW mech via the renderer's existing lazy build. Sentinel: "[gauge] viewpoint re-stream: tearing the gauge tree down for rebuild". Verified with the 2-instance relay harness (port 15600, MP_RELAY.EGG, the incident sequence): join A (dev gauges) + B, kill B by exact PID at WAITING FOR OPERATOR LAUNCH, rejoin B, operator launch. Pod A re-streamed (2x ctrlmap install, 4x zonebuild), logged the sentinel, and post-launch the docked composite is fully live (mission clock/heading/radar advancing between BT_SHOT frames) with ZERO [gauge-fault] DISABLED lines (the incident had 11).

KB: Gitea #12 incident findings -- @004bbd04 firing machine recovered, gauge-freeze root cause, dirty-bit gotcha
- decomp-reference: ProjectileWeaponSimulation @004bbd04 FULLY RECOVERED (capstone): fault gate reads simulationState@0x40==1 (not simulationFlags); ammo-bin gates; Loaded-case view/target denial = SetLevel(4);SetLevel(2) blip BEFORE FeedAmmo; updateModel@0x18|=1 is the replication dirty (== ForceUpdate); slot 17 @004b9c9c = rechargeLevel writer; FireWeapon @004bcc60 carries no gating. - gauges-hud: CORRECTION -- launcher recharge dial is NOT authentically static (slot 17 @004b9c9c animates it); MP gauge-window freeze root-caused = lobby-built gauge tree dangling over the launch mech re-stream + permanent SEH disable. - reconstruction-gotchas #20: updateModel@0x18 vs simulationFlags@0x28 bit 0 (DelayWatchersFlag) mis-mapping class (Emitter::SetDirty, mislanch salvo mark). - open-questions: #12 status ledger -- fixes pending a live-verify window; J/K/L preset hypothesis refuted for solo (scripted A/B); symptom-4 pip set unresolved. - GAUGE_COMPOSITE row 13 verdict corrected (WRONG-STATIC, fix pending).

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.

Gitea #10: systematic gauge-data audit -- 45-row verdict table + findings
docs/GAUGE_COMPOSITE.md gains the AUDIT 2026-07-19 section: every widget on the 6 pod MFD surfaces + the secondary screen + the HUD reticle audited for binary-correct data (static pass vs decomp + two instrumented live sessions). Verdicts: 34 CORRECT / 1 WRONG (filed) / 6 AUTH-STATIC / 6 DEFERRED-FEED. Findings: A. The 'SYSTEM 10 PPC ammo readout' (entry a) root-caused: header/label/screen mapping are CORRECT ([vss] dump == authored sub+0x1dc); the ammo box is a GHOST -- stale pixels from the sibling ballistic/sensor page on the shared Eng plane, persisting because the port SeekVoltageGraph::Execute is a bring-up no-op. In the binary the graph IS the top-box eraser (view = (0x97,0x80)-(0x17d,0x13b) @004c6798; clear @004c6be4 on the @004c6920 activation sentinel) -- ghost-free on the pod. Full reconstruction FILED (4 Seek* attrs + vtbl+0x3C sampler + x87 recovery); no erase-only stand-in. B. HUD attr table @5110c0 conflict (entry b) RESOLVED -- see commit |

Gitea #9: the upper-MFD PRESET pages (3 MFDs x 5) live -- SetPresetMode
table re-decoded to the ModeMFD bits + desktop J/K/L page cycle
The preset system was unwired by ONE defect in the message layer: the
SetPresetMode @004d1b24 table @0051dbf0 had been transcribed from the
section dump as BIG-endian dwords ({0x1e,0x01000000} instead of
{0x1e,0x01}), so a preset press set a garbage high bit -- and for group 1
items 3-4 / group 2 items 0-2 stomped the LIVE NonMapping / Intercom /
ModeSecondary* bits -- while the real page bits never moved. Ground
truth (section_dump.txt:72901-72908, little-endian + BTL4MODE.HPP [T0]):
set = ModeMFD{1,2,3}{Quad,Eng1-4} = 1<<(group*5+item), bits 0-14, fully
disjoint from the #6 secondary trio (bits 18-20); group 2 is MFD3, NOT a
duplicate of the secondary views.
What the 15 presets show (l4gauge.cfg): group = the MFD (Mfd1 lower left
/ Mfd2 upper center / Mfd3 lower right), item 0 = the btquad.pcx Quad
overview (up to 4 vehicleSubSystems cluster panels), items 1-4 = the
full-screen engineering-detail pages (bteng.pcx + prepEngr screens
group*4+1..4 + the cluster eng children: GENERATOR SELECT A-D, POWER
graph, COOLING loop, DAMAGE, ammo). Empty screens are authored per mech
(Blackhawk: 3/11/12 empty).
Authentic dispatch (streamed "L4" .CTL EventMappings, BT_CTRLMAP_LOG
dump): each MFD owns the 8-button RIO bank around it, MODE-MASK-gated --
Mfd1 = 0x08-0x0F, Mfd2 = 0x20-0x27, Mfd3 = 0x00-0x07. Quad page ->
direct-select buttons for the POPULATED eng pages (mapper msgs
Aux1Eng1-4 0x4-0x7 / Aux2* 0x9-0xC / Aux3* 0xE-0x11); eng page -> one
back-to-Quad button (0x3/0x8/0xD) + per-subsystem controls. These
records already install and fire on desktop (btinput passes the live
manager mask), so the NUMPAD profile's 0x20-0x27 keys page MFD2
authentically.
Port wiring (the #6 pattern): keys J/K/L -> actions Mfd1/2/3Cycle ->
gBTPresetCycle -> L4MechControlsMapper::CyclePresetModeNow(group) -- a
documented desktop shim (24 mode-dependent pod buttons don't fit a
keyboard) that cycles Quad -> populated Eng pages -> Quad, visiting
exactly the pod-reachable set; the body is the authentic SetPresetMode.
Dev-composite: BTDrawGaugeSurfaces now draws the Eng1-3 planes at their
sibling cells and skips any mono plane whose channel is BlankColor,
honoring the mode-driven reconfigure (RemapGraphicsPort) -- each dev
cell shows the ACTIVE page like the pod monitor. This supersedes and
removes the 2026-07-12 GAUGREND "frozen-dial" scaffold (forced all 15
page bits active under BT_DEV_GAUGES; it pinned the shared Eng plane on
the highest screen and ate the page flips).
Pixel-verified (BT_PRESET_TEST + BT_DEV_GAUGES_DOCK + BT_SHOT,
Blackhawk): all three MFDs page Quad -> SYSTEM NN eng details -> back to
Quad in lockstep with the [mode] preset mask log; group 0 skips the
authored-empty screen 3, group 2 skips 11/12. Un-regressed: N display
cycle (0x450421->0x490421->0x510421, page bits intact), M control mode,
CONTROLS.MAP 52 bindings parse clean.
Diags: BT_MODE_LOG ([mode] preset), BT_PRESET_TEST=<frame>.

Gitea #6: secondary MFD Damage/Critical/Heat cycling -- reconstruct the
NotifyOfDisplayModeChange override (vtbl+0x4C @4d1ae4) + wire desktop 'N'
The secondary screen's schematic selector was mislabeled: @004d1ae4 (the
bits-18..20 ModeSecondary* mask swap) was reconstructed as a non-virtual
"SetControlMode" that nothing called, so the desktop stayed pinned on the
Damage view. The binary's L4 vtable @0051e440 pins the truth:
+0x48 = @004d1acc <- CycleControlModeMessageHandler (FUN_004afbe0):
forwards to the base RET no-op @004b048c. A BAS/MID/ADV
control-mode change never touches the secondary view
(empirically confirmed: BT_MODECYCLE_TEST cycles the CONTROL
MODE lamp, mask bits 18-20 unchanged, schematic stays ARMOR).
+0x4C = @004d1ae4 <- CycleDisplayModeMessageHandler (FUN_004afcac):
THE Damage/Critical/Heat selector, indexed by displayMode
(table @0051dbe4 = ModeSecondaryDamage/Critical/Heat).
Authentic pod inputs (streamed type-6 .CTL EventMappings, dumped via the
new BT_CTRLMAP_LOG EVENT records): secondary-panel button 0x15 -> msg
0x15 CycleDisplayMode (manual p13, the "'Mech status Info center" bottom
left of the secondary screen), button 0x18 -> msg 0x14 CycleControlMode
(manual p6, top right), 0x10/0x11 -> ZoomIn/Out. The DOS keyboard
fallbacks (Keypress 0x13d/0x13e = extended F3/F4) are dead under the
WinTesla VK map, hence the desktop pin.
Port wiring (the M/ModeCycle pattern): key N / pad RightThumb -> action
DisplayCycle -> gBTDisplayCycle -> CycleDisplayModeNow() -- the same body
the pod console button message drives. Both .MAP profiles + the
compiled-in default updated.
Verified live (docked gauges + BT_SHOT, BT_VIEWCYCLE_TEST): the sec
panel cycles ARMOR DAMAGE silhouette -> CRITICAL DAMAGE subsystem list
-> HEAT DAMAGE colored list, mask 0x450421 -> 0x490421 -> 0x510421; M
control-mode cycling un-regressed (BAS/MID/ADV lamp cycles, view pinned).
Diags: BT_MODE_LOG, BT_VIEWCYCLE_TEST=<frame>, BT_MODECYCLE_TEST=<frame>,
BT_CTRLMAP_LOG now dumps EVENT records. KB: gauges-hud secondary-view
section rewritten, CLASSMAP +0x48/+0x4C slots, decomp-reference env
gates, GAUGE_COMPOSITE phase-4 entry resolved.

Coolant Flush end-to-end (Gitea #7): InjectCoolant id-4 handler + drain + FLUSH.PFX cloud + 'H' key
The playtest report (sound plays, no gauge drop, no cloud) traced to the
Reservoir's InjectCoolant chain being dead in three places:
- The handler was never REGISTERED: the binary's Reservoir handler table
@0x50e680 has one entry {4, "InjectCoolant", @4aee70}; added
Reservoir::GetMessageHandlers + the press/release handler (press starts
the flush gated on coolantLevel@0x12C > 0 -- the old body misread +0x12C
as currentTemperature; release stops it; novice lockout via FUN_004ac9c8).
- Reservoir::InjectCoolant (@4aefa4, 1019 bytes) was an empty stub -- the
drain the coolant gauge reads. Reconstructed in full: work list =
condenser/weapon/heatable chains (+0x7cc/+0x7bc/+0x7ac, roster-walk
emulation with the binary's duplicate-visit weighting; HeatSink-filtered
[T2 guarded]) + the linked master sink; per sink with flowScale != 0 move
squirtMass x flowScale x dt (clamped to the tank / sink capacity) and
credit pendingHeat with the negative carried-heat delta capped at
sinkMass x reservoir startingTemperature -- the set%-biased flush of the
manual (p24), riding the existing heat model.
- Two latent ctor decode bugs surfaced and fixed: the master gate @4af408
(and @4aeb40 HeatWatcher, swept) reads the OWNER MECH's simulationFlags
(*(param_2+0x28)), not the resource's subsystemFlags (the misread left
the CoolantSimulation Performance unregistered); and the capacity scale
FILDs the bank's INTEGER HeatSinkCount ((float10)*(int*)(link+0x1d0)) --
the float reinterpret gave ~1e-44 -> a permanently empty tank.
Capacity = 0.05 x heatSinkCount x streamed CoolantCapacity (BLH: 6.0).
Visual: the binary's mode-1 coolant-effect renderable (FUN_00456a68, built
for classID 0xBC0 on "ReservoirState", part_014.c:5439; tick @part_007.c:
8780) starts psfx 19 = FLUSH.PFX ("Coolant flush", BTDPL.INI) when the
state changes to 1 -- BTSpawnFlushCloud (mech4.cpp) spawns it on the same
alarm edge as an attached emitter at torso height.
Input: new CONTROLS.MAP action "Flush" on 'H' (HELD; press+release both
dispatch, the held-button payload). Diags: BT_FLUSH_LOG, BT_FLUSH_TEST.
Verified live (FOGDAY): [flush] Reservoir level 6 -> 0.13 -> 0 over ~0.6 s
held (= the manual's 3-4 punches to empty), the coolant vertBar source
Reservoir/CoolantMass drains, and the bluish condensation cloud rises from
the mech (scratchpad/flush_cloud.png vs flush_before.png).

KB: land the EXPERIENCE-LEVELS decode from glass-cockpit (Cyd)
Brings Cyd's experience-level / simulation-mode research onto master (the KB-decode portion of glass-cockpit 4e01e83; the bundled BT410 source manifest is left for the full glass-cockpit merge). - context/experience-levels.md (NEW): the egg per-pilot 'experience' field (novice/standard/veteran/expert) is the pod's SIMULATION-FIDELITY tier, decoded end-to-end. FUN_004c0bc8 reads btMission->experienceLevel(+0xe4) and fans it into the +0x25c/+0x260/+0x26c/+0x270/+0x274 flag block: +0x25c 'sim live' (novice lockout: jams/searchlight/powersub), +0x260 the HEAT-MODEL master switch (veteran+expert; FUN_004ad7d4), +0x274 raw level (FUN_004ac9c8 = ==0 novice predicate; the valve/advanced-cockpit lockout). 4.0->4.10 drift: the viewscreen hunting-aid gate is GONE in 4.10 (HUD reads none of these flags), and movement heat is veteran+expert not expert-only. - btplayer.cpp/.hpp: CORRECTED comments/labels -- the +0x25c..+0x274 block is seeded from btMission experienceLevel/advancedDamageOn, NOT the scenario role's returnFromDeath; the 'roleClassIndex/showKills' names are scoring-era mislabels. Code logic UNCHANGED (comment-only): the ctor still reads scenarioRole (STAND-IN, defaults 2 = veteran) pending the wiring task. - Corrections swept into gauges-hud.md (ROOKIE->novice lockout), open-questions.md (player+0x260/0x274 semantics now PINNED), pod-hardware.md, subsystems.md, decomp-reference.md; CLAUDE.md router row. No code-logic change -> no rebuild needed (comment + markdown only). The runtime wiring (seed from BTMission::ExperienceLevel()) remains TODO.

HUD: missile/AC weapon pips blink on fire again -- read authentic WeaponState (attr 0x1C)
Reported: the reticle's missile pips no longer momentarily disappear when
firing. Traced it: the pip's 'loaded' flag has read MechWeapon::rechargeLevel
(>= 0.999) since the reticle Execute was recovered (task #37). That's a port
APPROXIMATION of the binary's authentic attr 0x1C (WeaponState @0x350). It
works for emitters -- rechargeLevel is charge-driven and tops off at 1.0 when
Loaded -- but projectile weapons (MissileLauncher/autocannon) never write
rechargeLevel (it's authentically static at 1.0; the recharge DIAL draws full
and never moves). So a missile pip's 'loaded' was permanently true and the pip
never blinked. NOT an audio regression -- it never worked in the port; the
audio wave (

Radar view-wedge tracks the torso twist (Gitea issue #1)
The SECTOR radar's view cone read viewHorizontalRotation, wired by the MapDisplay ctor from the mech's Torso -- but FindSubObject and GetHorizontalRotation were NULL stubs, so the connection was never created and the wedge sat at heading 0 regardless of twist. Reconstructed from the binary: - FindSubObject (FUN_0041f98c): a subsystem-ROSTER walk (count @+0x124, array @+0x128) matching the streamed subsystem name (sub+0xd4) with a tolower-strcmp (FUN_004d4b58) -- the 'Torso' sub-object IS the roster Torso subsystem. - GetHorizontalRotation: torso+0x1D8 == Torso::currentTwist (layout-locked), via the existing task-#56 bridge BTGetTorsoTwistAddr (Radian is layout- identical to Scalar). Verified live (MadCat, Standard mode Q/E): the wedge tracks the twist in lockstep (rot 0 -> -2.21 rad), and the semantic test passes -- body turned away, torso twisted back onto the enemy: reticle green + wedge pointing at the enemy's blip on the body-fixed scope. NB the Blackhawk's torso is FIXED (+/-0.01 deg limits) -- its wedge authentically never moves; test with a twisting mech. Diag env: BT_RADAR_LOG.

Three reconstruction fronts closed: THE ELECTRICAL WATCHDOG CHAIN (why the torso never powered up): - PowerWatcher::UpdateWatch reconstructed (@004b181c, the REAL registered Performance -- PTR @0050f5fc; Ghidra missed the fn start): the watchdog MIRRORS the watched subsystem's electrical level (+0x278), brownout downgrade when gen output <= minVoltage% x rated. @004b1804 relabeled ResetToInitialState (slot 10) -- the old "Simulation" tag was wrong. - The factory watcher-CONNECT pass reconstructed (vtable slot +0x38, @004aee2c/@004b1a40 byte-identical, recovered from raw exe bytes): watchedLink.Add(roster[watchedSubsystem]) on the master node. Was the SubProxy::Start() no-op -- every watchdog sat at 0 forever. - MinVoltageScale = 0.01 (a 10-byte x87 literal @0x4b1924; was 1.0f = permanent brownout) and PowerWatcher's Derivation chains its REAL base HeatWatcher (the HeatableSubsystem stand-in broke IsDerivedFrom for the whole Torso/Searchlight/ThermalSight family). - KB correction swept: derivation tag 0x50e604 = HEATWATCHER (not "HeatSink"); the btl4gaug heat-widget gate now tests it via the BTIsHeatWatcher bridge. THE CROSSHAIR (task #58 forensics, 6-agent workflow + live probes): - The VIEW is TORSO-MOUNTED: jointtorso -> jointeye -> siteeyepoint in every twist-capable .SKL; the camera + canopy ride the same hinge subtree through HingeRenderable's live matrix-stack compose -- ALREADY WORKING in the port. The crosshair stays screen-centered (center IS the boresight); the twist reads on the tape carets/compass/radar. - The real bug was the port's gBTAimX = tan(twist) slew (the falsified "body-mounted view" model): the camera already carried the twist, so the crosshair counter-slid to hull-forward and the fire ray with it. Deleted; the pick ray inherits the twist from the yawing eye basis. - Two instrumentation traps documented (chase-eye-as-default-camera, BT_FORCE_TORSO clobbering real joints -> the hook now only fills unresolved ones); an over-correcting explicit eye compose was added on those false readings and retired the same day. CONTROLS + REPLICATION: - Q/E spring-center on release (the axis is a twist-RATE demand; the old hold-deflection model drifted forever); X also zeroes the axis and pulses the authentic torso Recenter (@004b6918). M cycles control mode via the real CycleControlMode body. - Torso update-record DIRECTION fixed: engine truth is Write=serialize / Read=apply; @004b6a78 is the READ (was mislabeled Write) and the missing WRITE @004b6a1c recovered from raw disasm (recordLength 0x1C, twist/vel/rate at +0x10/14/18) -- kills the replicant's 0xCDCDCDCD -140-degree ghost twist. - Marching-ghost desync: 4 Standing-case guards zero stale reverse cycleSpeed (negative cadence passed the <= ZeroSpeed stop gate). - Kill credit rerouted to the OBSERVED killer (lastInflictingID -> killer's player link) -- kills count, target K/D populates. KB: subsystems.md (watcher chain), multiplayer.md (record direction), combat-damage.md + gauges-hud.md + cockpit-view.md (torso-mounted view re-correction), decomp-reference.md (new addresses + tag fix), open-questions.md (dead capability-roster loops 2-4, snapshot CD read).

Fire VISUALS wave: the authored firesmoke sheet, vertex-alpha effect cards, the case-4 wreck dressing
The "fireballs like the demo vids" arc, decomp/content-grounded end to end,
plus the live-play UX batch verified over the same sessions:
FIRESMOKE SHEET (the PFX fireball fix): every firesmokeN_scr_tex in BTFX.VMF
maps the SAME 64x64 tileable noise image bintA (variants differ only in SCROLL
rate) and firesmoke1_mtl colours it through the "fiery" ramp (0.3,0.1,0.1)->
(0.9,0.7,0.3). The particle layer now bakes ramp(lum(bintA)) as its sprite
colour (noise detail in alpha) and SCROLLS it at firesmoke1's authored rate
via a texture-transform; the port's radial soft-edge mask moved to a second
CLAMPed stage so the WRAPPED scroll rolls flame through the sprite without
scrolling the edge away. Old grit x radial bake kept as the no-BINTA fallback.
Impact hits, damage-band smoke and death booms all ride this layer.
AUTHORED TEXTURE SCROLL in the model path: the BMF TEXTURE records carry
SPECIAL " SCROLL u0 v0 du dv" (tag 0x2037); the draw path always supported
per-op scrolling (SetTextureScrolling) but the BGF loader never parsed it, so
every scrolling material rendered frozen. Wired TexRef -> MatInfo -> batch ->
L4TEXOP.doScroll: the flame cards (flamebig/fire5) now roll fire noise.
VERTEX-ALPHA EFFECT CARDS (the "twisted drill bit of fire" fix): FLAMEBIG's
verts carry authored float RGBA -- white-hot base (1.0,0.99,0.97) -> dark-red
tip fading to alpha -0.2 (the DPL clamp convention). The loader kept a flat
batch colour and drew it OPAQUE = a solid orange spike. Corpus sweep: exactly
14 shipped BGFs carry vertex alpha, ALL effect cards (flames, MUZFLASH,
EXDISK_A/B/C, TMST_A/B/C, beam models, DECLOUDS). Such batches now keep the
authored per-vertex gradient and route to the alpha-blend pass, unlit,
colour = texture x gradient, alpha = the vertex fade; sky objects excluded
(drawAsSky + alphaTest passes NEITHER pass filter -- DECLOUDS stays in the
sky pass). MUZFLASH/EXDISK render correctly for free when the muzzle-model
work lands.
WRECK DRESSING (the 1996 ExplosionScripts case-4 transcription): pieces spawn
HIDDEN and reveal 0.25s after the boom (the InstanceSwitch delay, behind the
dnboom flash); flamebig hangs over the pile, Y-BILLBOARDED at the camera
(SetOffsetYaw + a camera-pos getter -- the dpl_SetDCSReorientAxes analog);
the MakeDCSFall settle arms at the reveal with the two authored rates (hulk/
debris -0.025 t^2, fires -0.01 t^2 -- the flames ride above the sinking pile
and die with it at burial). EMPTY-PLACEHOLDER hulk guard: THRDBR.BGF is a
153-byte zero-geometry stub that "loads fine" -- vertex-count check now routes
it to the gendbr fallback (a Thor wreck was invisible). Hulk content census
recorded: AVADBR==MADDBR==VULDBR geometry (palette-only prefix diffs),
RAPDBR==SNDDBR==STIDBR byte-identical -- wreck variety is materials + the
dressing, not unique piles.
LIVE-PLAY BATCH: muzzle resolve uses the named segmentIndex (raw +0xdc read
was layout garbage); forward launch frame (authored MuzzleVelocity +Z vs the
mech's -Z facing); dock-bottom single window (gauge strip appended below the
world viewport, 1100x600 default, BT_DEV_GAUGES_WINDOW=1 restores the separate
window); portrait sec surface unrotated CW; ammo counters live via typed
bridges (BTAmmoBinCountPtr/BTAmmoBinFeeding/BTWeaponAmmoBin -- raw bin+0x180
and a hand-rolled link walk were garbage); fourth fire key ('4' = Pinky);
panel/arc probes de-aliased (%61 prime).
KB: rendering.md (vertex-alpha card family + scroll), combat-damage.md (hulk
census + THRDBR stub), gauges-hud.md (ammo bridges).

MP live-play wave: collision economy, missiles, radar transform, panel polarity, comm ticker
The interactive 2-node playtest wave -- every fix decomp-grounded and live-verified: COLLISION ECONOMY (the ram one-shot): StaticBounce mutates worldLinearVelocity per contact and ProcessCollisionList walks EVERY touched solid per frame; with 2007 terrain-as-solids the reflections compounded x4-x40 within one frame and a walking bump one-shot a pristine mech for 112,375 pts (62-pt authentic economy). Fix: frameEntryWorldVelocity restore per contact (damage always priced at the real approach speed -- all the binary's physics ever saw); Mech::Reset zeroes the mover motion (respawn = teleport); [collide-tx]/[mp-hdlr] telemetry. Gotcha #16 (engine-facility drift class). MISSILES: peer-visible salvos (the launcher record extension carries a salvo counter + aim point; ForceUpdate actually enqueues it -- the dirty flag alone never serialized), the authentic arc (authored MuzzleVelocity vector + the Seeker's 200m/0.1/300 loft + gain-4 steering, decoded from @004beae4/@004bef78), world-impact bursts (rounds detonate on cave geometry instead of phasing through), contact-only damage (flight-cap expiry = fizzle, no more teleport damage), live re-lead, and ballistic (unguided) shells for autocannons. projweap's stale BTPushProjectile extern (the /FORCE signature trap, gotcha #6 corollary) crashed the Avatar's first AFC100 shot -- fixed + sweep rule recorded. RADAR: two transcription bugs made the scope permanently empty -- FUN_0040b244 is the affine INVERSE (not a copy) and FUN_0040adec writes ONLY the 3x3 rotation (never the translation); worldToView now Invert(view) built rotation-first. CulturalIcons sorted out of the moving grid (the phantom red pips were map props), visible-radius culls on all three draw passes, live pip verified at |delta| x ppm px. Gotcha #17 (verify the FUN_ body, not its call shape). WEAPON PANELS (the frozen-dial hunt): the binary's *(subsystem+0x40) means FAILED -- the recon's 'operating' name was backwards, inverting the destroyed-X lamps, the panel look, the children enable and the ready-lamp gate (which had NEVER executed). Polarity chain corrected end-to-end (failedState, fed by real damage saturation). Root cause of the freezes: MFD page-mode gating -- the dev composite shows ALL pages at once, so off-page dials legitimately stopped; under BT_DEV_GAUGES the 15 page-plane bits stay active (the exclusive secondary trio untouched). The SEH gauge guard now names its kills; repaint-heal resets the incremental arc after panel repaints; [panel]/[arc] probes added. COMM/SCORE: MessageBoard LIVE (the engine already shipped the whole Player__StatusMessage queue; wired the binary's one producer -- the kill branch, victim's name, 6s -- plus the consumer bridge and a lazy source bind); MP DEATHS counted via the observed-death tally (each node scores every pilot from locally observed events, the same model as the KILLS credit) and the -2/-1 engine seed clamped for display. DEV UX: node-tagged window titles (-net port), gauge panel reworked (1320x480, true 4:3 MFD cells, the portrait secondary UNROTATED upright, linear filtering, BT_GAUGE_SCALE), fixed close spawns via BT_SPAWN_XZ, Boreas flies an Avatar (first second-chassis live outing).

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 COOLANT VALVE control -- the heat-management triad completes (task #13)
The pilot's third heat tool: Condenser::MoveValve (id 4, the Condenser handler table @0x50E52C -- PE-verified, exactly one entry) registered via the order-proof function-local accessor and GUARDED by the real FUN_004ac9c8 (task #12's BTPlayerRoleLocksAdvanced rookie-role bridge -- the old deferral note blamed the 0xBD3 messmgr, a stale misattribution, swept). Each press cycles the valve 1 -> 5 -> 50 -> 0 -> 1 and RecomputeCondenserValves re-shares the fixed total coolant flow across all six condensers -- opening one valve wide starves the others: the pilot's cooling-triage lever. Desktop: 'C' cycles the selected condenser's valve (BT_VALVE_SLOT picks the roster slot; default Condenser1). BT_VALVE_TEST scripts a headless press. Verified live: press -> "[valve] condenser#1 valveState=5 flow=0.5 (total=10)" -- exactly the authored redistribution math (5/(5+5x1)), through the real role gate. The heat-management triad is now complete and all-authentic: G + fire buttons = regroup weapons across buttons (task #6) F5-F8 / F9 = reassign weapon generators / mode (task #12) C = coolant valve triage (task #13) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

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.

Heat: THE AUTHENTIC ELECTRICAL MODEL -- weapons recharge from generators (task #10)
Task #10 set out to fix "scrambled linked-sink routing"; a [heat-link] attach log proved the routing was NEVER scrambled (every subsystem links its authored condenser exactly; the "pools in Condenser1" read was the diagnostic-sampler aliasing trap). The real defect: emitter.cpp's local FUN_00417ab4 stub returned NULL, so the whole electrical model was inert and the E7 force-charge recharged every emitter in ONE frame (~0.3s cycle, 1501 fires/90s, ~1.7e9 heat/s -- the "runaway"). Landed authentically [T1: disasm + byte-verified constants]: - Emitter ctor @004bb120: seekVoltage = authored fraction x generator ratedVoltage (10000); EC = energyTotal/(seekV^2 x 0.5); voltageScale@0x310 = (RechargeRate / -ln(1 - 1e-4 x seekV)) / EC -- charge reaches seekV[rec] in EXACTLY the authored RechargeRate (PPC 5s, ERL 4s, SRM 3s, ERM 2s) cold. Owner-flags ctor gate (the usual gotcha; the this-flags read never armed). - PoweredSubsystem::ChargeTimeScale (@004b0d50, was a =1.0 stub): voltageScale x (1 + thermalResistivity x srcTempRise) -- hot generators charge slower. ("voltageScale is never read back" was wrong; corrected + swept.) - TrackSeekVoltage @004ba838: charging I^2R -> the GENERATOR's pendingHeat (~3.5e8/full PPC charge) -- generators self-heat, conduct to their authored condensers, and throttle further charging. The feedback economy closes. - FailureHeat consumers found: this+0x184 == 2 gates BOTH weapon families (@004baa88 emitter: reset firing + hold charge 0; @004bbd36 ballistic: recoil=rechargeRate + alarm 7). Emitter::GetFaultState un-stubbed. - ProjectileWeaponSimulation @004bbd04 opens with call 0x4b0bd0 (disasm) -- launchers now run the powered/heat step (their firing heat previously accumulated in pendingHeat forever). - heat.cpp: per-instance BT_HEAT_LOG census (the old shared-static 1-Hz sampler aliased); [heat-link] attach log; the stolen-else Verify restored. Verified live (120s max-rate autofire): PPC ~470-500 (was 55,000), bank plateaus ~600 and sheds to ambient, generators 1100-1400, ERMLaser self-regulates at the authored 2000 failure threshold (shutdown-cool-resume).

HUD colors corrected vs the binary ctor (validated by a period screenshot)
A period pod screenshot from players who know the game flagged the overlay. Stroke-by-stroke re-read of the ctor (@4546-4587) against it: - The range caret triangle is GREEN width 1 (ctor @4550-4551 sets SetLineWidth(1)+SetColor(0,0.75,0) AFTER the yellow bar's CallList) -- my transcription left it yellow/2. Same for the bottom bowtie carets (@4569-4570). Both fixed; the caret polylines also get the binary's explicit 4th closing point (@4558). - The screenshot otherwise CONFIRMS our layout (yellow range bar, green caret, colored pip dots, tick tape + green bowtie, rotating compass, mid-ladder range with no lock = the world-pick terrain range). - Its crosshair is ~2.5x taller with arrowhead arms -- NOT our binary's +-0.04..0.16 program: a different pod revision.

HUD: per-weapon pip data dump + the real authored ranges recorded
[hud] pip diagnostic logs each registered pip's classID/PipPosition/ WeaponRange/PipExtendedRange/PipColor. The live dump corrects the "everything is 500m" assumption: BLH lasers red @500 (x3, ext=1), missiles amber @800 (x2), PPCs blue @900 (x2) -- the pips sit at their weapons' max-range marks on the range ladder (caret below a pip = that weapon reaches), so 7 weapons read as 3 weapon-system groups.

Targeting correction: reticle = TORSO BORESIGHT, not a free mouse cursor (task #39)
Colleague flagged that targeting is torso-locked with no fine cursor. Correct: the pod stick's yaw drove the TORSO TWIST (MechControlsMapper -> HUD::SetFreeAimSlew(stick_x) @cockpit+0x28C, gated on torso-horizontal-enabled; hud.hpp:167) and reticlePosition @HUD+0x1FC is COMPUTED by HudSimulation from the mech pose quaternion + target geometry, zeroed to centre with no target (part_013.c:5680) -- never a free-floating cursor. The engine Reticle struct is general (shared with Red Planet); BT drives it from the torso boresight. Fix: - Removed the mouse-cursor slew (a mis-sourced stand-in from the RP-shared struct). The crosshair is now the torso boresight: BTTwistToReticleX(torsoTwist) = tan(twist) projected through the live per-axis projection. Dead-centre on the fixed-torso BLH (TorsoHorizontalEnabled=0); you aim by steering the whole mech. - BT_AIM="x y" retained as the headless test harness. Verified: face-to-face spawn -> HOT lock + aimed zone hits (36); BT_FORCE_TURN circling -> 31 no-target vs 1 HOT (steering off-target drops the lock, as it must). KB swept (combat-damage / gauges-hud / open-questions); checkctx CLEAN. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

HUD ironing (task #38): authentic Lock producer + simple-X mode
- LOCK rules transcribed from the exported HudSimulation (part_013.c:5619-5634): lock requires a target AND your own HUD host zone damage < 0.75 (_DAT_004b7ec4 -- a shot-up targeting computer drops lock) AND the targeted zone damage < 1.0 (_DAT_004b7ec8; whole-mech target checks zone 0 -- a wreck's dead zone can't re-lock). Box and ring are now separate signals like the binary: gBTHudLockState 1 = target held (hotbox draws), 2 = LOCKED (+ the spinning ring). - SIMPLE-X mode: the ctor's [0x99] minimal-reticle list transcribed (@4689-4705: green +-0.02..0.08 cross on the aim translate); Draw switches master <-> simple X on the PrimaryHudOn element bit (0x20), completing the recovered Execute's state-list logic. - Canopy diagnosis sharpened (open-questions): blx_cop is the torso segment's inside-skeleton mesh enclosing the eye; the black box = the skeleton render branch missing its texture + PUNCH cutout (the canopy windows are punch texels). A rendering-branch task; stays hidden by default. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Reticle Execute @004cdcf0 RECOVERED: every HUD instrument now live (task #37)
The one un-exported gap in the reticle chain, read via capstone (tools/disas2.py; the annotated disasm preserved at reference/decomp/reticle_execute_004cdcf0.disasm.txt). Draw() is now a transcription of the real per-frame logic, and the HUD attr-table names (hud.hpp ids 4/5/6/8/A/B/C/D) are CONFIRMED by their Execute usage: - Range ladder: BAR from ladder-top to the caret + caret translate. - The bottom 21-tick tape is the TORSO-TWIST indicator (NOT heading): deflection = -/+(span/2) x (RotationOfTorsoHorizontal / twist limit), attrs 4/5/6. Fixed-torso BLH reads centred -- authentic static. - The circle-with-stem is the COMPASS (attr 0xD, rad->deg rotation) at (botX, botY - 3*tickMajor - 0.03), with the THREAT trail (attr 0xC) in its rotated frame: 0.05-unit attack-direction marks, fresh < 2s red, expiring at 6s. Port feed: player TakeDamage pushes the impact direction (dormant vs the passive test dummy). - Pips (composed into subB6): hidden when destroyed (attr 1 == 1), LIT when the fire cycle is LOADED (attr 0x1c == 2; port source rechargeLevel >= 1) else the dark charging ring; filtered by the weapon-GROUP bits (weaponMode & elementMask&0xF). Range plays NO part (the stored TargetWithinRange slots are never read by Execute). - Lock ring: subB9 at frame centre SPINNING 4 deg/frame while locked ([0x9d] is the spin matrix, not a heading list). - Target HOTBOX: a rectangle hugging the projected extents (x+-4 around the top-centre hotbox point, +1/-11.5 vertical; baked K=2.8145 -- the port projects through the live per-axis projection), switching to the edge arrows past +-1.6 or behind (BTProjectHotBox, L4VIDEO). - Reticle state Off/On + PrimaryHudOn full-HUD/simple-X switch, aim translate on slew move, 3D marker + PNAME player-name mesh identified (chain still deferred).

HUD reticle + weapon pips LIVE: dpl2d 2D display-list port (task #35)
- dpl2d API fully recovered from the binary recorders (@487f34-488630): opcode model (points/lines/polyline/circle/color/width/matrix/push-pop), CallList = INLINE include (state persists to caller), centered coordinate frame (unit = half viewport height). game/reconstructed/dpl2d.cpp rework. - BTReticleRenderable ctor @004cc40c transcribed with the authentic calibration (originX .35, originY .25, scaleY .5, 0..1200m right range ladder, bottom heading tape, FUN_004cd938 tick ladders, lock rings, turn arrows); range caret slides from the live target range fed by the mech4 targeting step (BTSetHudTargetRange). - Weapon pips: the binary gate is IsDerivedFrom(0x511830 = MechWeapon::ClassDerivations) [T1: part_014.c:5386 hard-aborts on missing weapon attrs; part_012 counts + roster ORs capabilityFlags@+0x334] so ALL 7 BLH weapons register (3 lasers + 2 PPCs + 2 MissileLaunchers). Pip A (lit, authored PipColor) on TargetWithinRange, else dark ring B. - AddWeapon @004cdac0 store map corrected to the verified order (part_014.c:4827-4837); both state attrs are literally named "SimulationState" (strings @51d526/51d577) -> weapon simulationState. - Mech roster this[0x1ef] renamed poweredSubsystems -> weaponRoster (0x511830 is MechWeapon, not PoweredSubsystem=0x50f4bc); derivation-tag table added to context/decomp-reference.md. - Draw hook BTDrawReticle after the 3D scene, cockpit view only. Binary Execute @004cdcf0 is an un-exported gap -> Draw dynamics [T3], tracked in context/open-questions.md with the blx_cop canopy + PNAME pip meshes.

context: sweep the 0xBD3/mech+0x190 correction across all topic files
Propagate the verified finding (0xBD3 = damage/explosion hub @0x434, NOT the valve/message gate; the valve/Myomers gates read the owning BTPlayer @mech+0x190) into the topic files that still carried the old claim: decomp-reference (ClassID row + both offset rows), gauges-hud, subsystems, open-questions (Myomers coupling), + frontmatter. Graph validates clean. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

context-system: bootstrap the progressive-context expert knowledge base (foundation)
Adapt the spark-lesson / expert-seed.md progressive-context pattern to the bt411 port:
a thin router + context/*.md knowledge graph so the 2236-line CLAUDE.md's deep knowledge
loads on-demand instead of every session.
NON-DESTRUCTIVE foundation pass (live CLAUDE.md unchanged; proposed router is a draft):
- reference/glossary.yaml -- ~45 terms (engine/formats/scene/reconstruction)
- context/decomp-reference.md -- the quantitative hub: resource types, ClassID map,
mech offsets, damage delivery, weapon constants, env gates, tools
- context/reconstruction-gotchas.md -- the 12 systemic bug classes (conventions/DO-NOT hub)
- context/bgf-format.md -- geometry format + CONN/PCONN + LOD-sqrt3 + ramp shading
- context/gauges-hud.md -- the gauge/MFD system (the just-completed wave)
- context/open-questions.md -- deferred systems + get-from-Nick
- context/_ROUTER-DRAFT.md -- the proposed slim CLAUDE.md (identity, protocols,
quick-lookup, evidence tiers T0-T4, conventions, structure)
- phases/phase-01-context-restructure.md -- design + migration plan + status
docs/*.md ledgers stay as the DETAILED logs; context/*.md are the curated digests that
route into them. Remaining: ~10 topic files (project-overview, subsystems, combat-damage,
rendering, locomotion, wintesla-port, build-and-run, ...) then the CLAUDE.md swap.
