Torso: the TWIST goes LIVE -- electrical watchdog chain, centered crosshair, coherent controls (task #57/#58)
The MadCat torso twists, the view turns with it, and targeting follows. 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).

Gyro: byte-exact re-enable -- ctor map, integrators, jointeye writers (task #56)
The Gyroscope subsystem is LIVE again (was a stub since the NaN revert).
Reconstructed byte-exact from @004b3778 / @004b2ec0 / @004b30ec / @004b33e0 /
@004b34ec + the byte-verified dispatch in the unexported Mech performance
FUN_004a9b5c (calls @0x4aaf74/0x4aaf83):
- ctor field map corrected: springConstant@0x1E8 / dampingConstant@0x1F4 were
mislabelled (the old 'eyeOrientation = r->springConstant' poison line), the
0x254-0x2B3 block (externalPitchPtr, work matrix, placement) was missing so
everything after was mis-offset, and clamps/accumulators were 0xCD fill --
every field now initialised per the binary; 33 offsets static_assert-locked,
sizeof == 0x3D0 exact
- integrators: state-minus-target displacements, componentwise damping
OVERWRITE (FUN_004086d0 is a component multiply, not a cross), position step
without dt, clamp to [posSpring, negSpring]; IntegrateBody's X/Z-crossed
force + integration terms
- writers: WriteMechJoint drives ONE node ('jointeye', type 5): TRANSLATION =
eyePosition spring, ROTATION = bodyOrientation spring; WriteEyeJoint is a
multiplicative sway attenuator on 'jointlocal' (post-anim only)
- dispatch moved out of GyroscopeSimulation into the Mech performance tail
(GyroFrameJointWrite bridge, mech4.cpp) with the binary gates; gyro<->torso
pitch link wired (gyro+0x258 = &torso currentTwist) via complete-type-TU
bridges, retiring the SubProxy::linkTarget landmine
- Mech ctor: deathAnimationLatched/legResetLatch were never initialised --
0xCDCDCDCD gated the writers off silently
Runtime-verified: joints resolve (both BallTranslation), Performance installs,
WriteMechJoint finite from frame 0 (no NaN), Madcat cockpit un-regressed,
combat targeting healthy. Empirical: spring targets are SYMMETRIC -> eye
equilibrium (0,0,0), clamps +/-0.1-0.15u -- the gyro is the hit-BOUNCE
mechanism, not a steady eye offset (hypothesis disproven, recorded in KB).
Pending (task #56 tail): the damage->gyro fan-out FUN_004b2980 (unexported
gap) so hits actually kick the springs; the mech+0x3F0 overspeed sway model;
the torso-pitch EyepointRotation writer (FUN_004b66b4) + glance-look states.

STEP 6 COMPLETE: cylinder hit-location LIVE — unaimed hits resolve to zones
The Mech per-impact hit-location resolver (the cylinder damage table) is now functional, wired, and runtime-verified [T2]. Unaimed (zone==-1) hits — the collision-damage path — now resolve an impact point to a damage zone via the authentic height x angle grid + weighted dice roll, instead of dropping. dmgtable.cpp/.hpp was a non-functional skeleton on no-op ReconTable/stream shims; backed it with real std::vector storage and fixed 5 latent runtime bugs: - ReadEntries now consumes the leading cell name-string ([i32 len][len+1]) - PieSlice ctor reads rotateWithTorso into the correct member - SelectSlice direct-indexes (was int lookup on a float-keyed table) - ResolveHit returns the zone (chains SelectSlice -> SelectZone) - real MemoryStream::ReadBytes (was a variadic no-op) mech.cpp ctor: replaced the empty-name StandingAnimation stub with the real load — FindResourceDescription(dzRes->resourceName, type 0x1d) -> stream -> new DamageLookupTable, cached at mech[0x111]; ~Mech deletes it. Mech::TakeDamageMessageHandler override registered (MESSAGE_ENTRY overlays Entity's by ID): on invalidDamageZone, resolve via the table then base-route; aimed reticle hits pass through unchanged. Three named accessors (no databinding-trap raw reads): WorldToLocal (localToWorld.MultiplyByInverse), CylinderReferenceHeight (standingTemplateMaxY == collisionTemplate->maxY == binary mech+0x2ec[+0xc]), TorsoHeading via a BTGetTorsoTwist bridge in torso.cpp (Torso::CurrentTwist == torso+0x1d8; torso.hpp cannot be included into mech.cpp — subsystem-stub collision). Stream format + geometry + roll + handler were all byte-verified against the shipped BTL4.RES type-29 resources (18 tables, exact consumption) and the disassembly (FUN_0049eb54/e678/de14, glue 0x49ed0c, handler @0x4a037a). Runtime: boots clean, "[cyl] table 'bhk1' layers=7" (exact byte-verified layer count, found by name), mech spawns + walks, no asserts/AV/0xCDCDCDCD. Env gate BT_CYL_LOG=1. Unblocks collision-damage application. KB updated (combat-damage.md STEP 6 COMPLETE, open-questions.md marked done). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

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.
