Glass 'keymap regression' triage: stale build-glass exe, not code — rebuild + full re-verify
The live-reported glass regressions (arrows dead / lever+detent missing / V+J/K/L+N inert / weapons into the ground) were build-glass/Release/btl4.exe built at 07:47 running the pre-5dd3536 image: no suppression tables, no V/J/K/L keys, unpinned RIO ids. content\bindings.txt already carried the merged map (arrows = W/S lever + A/D pedals) and parsed clean. Clean rebuild closed every symptom; SendInput re-verification: lever holds on release + stops at zero, LEFT/RIGHT turn in MID (wire-sign correct), V toggles with BT_SHOT pair, level boresight at spawn, R/F elevation drive; pod build rebuilt + smoked un-regressed. Code delta: BT_MPPR_TRACE [mppr-c] line enriched with mode/pedals/stick/turn/elev so one env-gated line proves the whole control surface. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

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.

Merge origin/master: the D1 relay/operator line + input remap meet the glass layer
33 master commits in (relay TCP/UDP + PySide6 operator console, CONTROLS.MAP +XInput binding engine, camera seats, torso pitch aim, sign fixes, the 1995 manual, version stamping, 18-mech certification). Conflicts: .gitignore + CLAUDE.md router rows (combined). SEMANTIC RECONCILIATION (the one real overlap): masters btinput binding engine (ungated, CONTROLS.MAP) and the glass PadRIO (gated, bindings.txt) would both read the keyboard/pad in a glass+PAD session. btinput now joins the stand-down convention: BTInputPoll yields (and BTInputSuppressKey claims NOTHING, so authentic hotkeys flow) when an operational cockpit device owns the input path -- BTRIODevicePresent, BT_KEY_BRIDGE force-override honored, forced harness exempt. One input system per mode: btinput on pod/dev desktops, PadRIO on glass. The mechmppr/mech4 bridge merges composed clean (masters negate-once sign fix inside our device-gated bridge). The D1 relay keeps its own raw sockets by design (an alternative LAN wire; Steam and relay are separate modes). Verified post-merge: all 3 configs build; glass boots with [input] binding engine standing down + PadRIO owning input (30 ticks); pod forced-walk speedDemand=61.501 with btinput ACTIVE; 2-node loopback MP full 31/31 mission, 76/76 ticks.

Turn/twist/free-aim sign family: negate ONCE at the key bridge (user-verified)
User live-tested: 'if i push the left arrow the mech turns right' -- correct, and it invalidated my earlier screenshot-forensics 'D=right verified' claim (the yaw telemetry actually agreed with the user all along: D gave POSITIVE yaw = CCW = LEFT; the sim uses math convention, positive = counter-clockwise, for turn AND twist). On the pod the RIO Ranger owned the hardware sign; the desktop bridge now negates in ONE place per channel family: - key_turn = -gBTDrive.turn (forced/BT_GOTO harness demands stay sim-frame, un-negated) - stickPosition.x = -gBTTwistAxis (Standard/Veteran torso stick) - SetFreeAimSlew call-site negations REMOVED (the bridge negation now flows through; double-flip removed) Matches the manual (p8): 'pulling your joystick to the right torso twists your Mech to the right.' User verified live: arrows steer correctly (Blackhawk, basic mode) and MadCat torso twist is correct in middle mode. LESSON (recorded): large-rotation screenshot comparisons are AMBIGUOUS (both directions put 'new scenery at an edge'); trust tracked landmarks, numeric telemetry with an established convention, or the user's live observation.

Fixed-torso free-aim left/right was reversed (tester report confirmed)
Field report: 'left/right is reversed'. Investigation with screenshot + numeric verification found it channel-specific: - A/D leg steering: CORRECT (D tap -> scenery slides left = turns right; verified via cockpit screenshots) - Torso TWIST (turning-torso mechs, e.g. MadCat): CORRECT all along (E -> currentTwist +0.27 = right -- consistent with weeks of validated play; an interim blanket negation that broke this is reverted) - Fixed-torso FREE-AIM slew (Blackhawk & friends): REVERSED -- E/right panned the view LEFT. The slew consumer pans opposite the twist convention; on the pod the RIO layer owned the hardware sign. Fix: negate stick_x ONLY at the two SetFreeAimSlew call sites (Standard + Veteran branches). Verified after fix: MadCat E -> currentTwist +0.270 (right); Blackhawk E -> view pans right. New BT_INPUT_LOG diags: [input] twist in/currentTwist (Standard branch) + mechYaw in the Basic elev line. Note for testers: the tester was almost certainly flying a fixed-torso mech -- 'reversed' reports should always record WHICH mech. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Torso elevation (pitch aim) wired: the pod stick's Y axis lives
The mechs could always tilt their aim up/down -- Torso models the full vertical axis (currentElevation, rate, VerticalLimitTop/Bottom, recenter) and EVERY 1995 control mode routes stickPosition.y into Torso::SetAnalogElevationAxis -- but the desktop bridge hard-zeroed stick Y, so the axis was dead on a keyboard rig. The one pod control the remap left unwired. - btinput: JoystickY axis -> elevTarget/elevActive/elevAbsolute - mech4 shim: sElev integrator (same walk/spring model as the twist; X recenters pitch too via gBTElevRecenter) - mechmppr bridge: feeds stickPosition.y every bridged frame (the old unconditional zero removed); both mode branches covered - CONTROLS.MAP (+ numpad profile + compiled default): R/F = aim up/down, pad LeftStickY = elevation (was unused) - torso.hpp: CurrentElevation()/ElevationVelocity() accessors (diag) - [mppr] trace gains stickY (note: the trace reads AFTER the next frame's device push re-zeroes the stick -- input flows regardless) Verified live: R held -> torso elevation climbs at the authored rate and clamps at 0.349066 rad = exactly 20.0 deg (the Blackhawk's VerticalLimitTop); release holds the aim. The eyepoint correctly stays level -- pitch aims the GUNS and reads on the HUD's vertical elevation tape, as in the pod. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Panel: the vRIO layout + coloration, plasma flip fix, button-trap guard
Per Cyd: the on-screen panel now mirrors vRIO (C:\VWE\vrio -- CockpitLayout.cs
+ PanelCanvas.cs, itself the RIOJoy profile-editor layout from the original
Win32 RIO mockup): five 4x2 MFD clusters (addresses descending), four 1x8
board columns (Throttle/Secondary/Screen/Joystick), the two 4x4 hex keypads
(0x50/0x60 -- cells emit real keypad KeyEvents: internal=pilot unit, external=
operator unit), physical names (Panic/Main/Hat*/Pinky...), vRIO colors: red
lamp cells + yellow Secondary/Screen + neutral-blue keypads, flash half-
periods 500/250/125ms, right-click latch (gold outline). 104 controls.
PlasmaWindow: the gauge renderer writes the 128x32 buffer TOP-DOWN -- the
bottom-up flip rendered the marquee upside down (user-reported); copy straight.

Controls: the keyboard bridges STAND DOWN for a live device (step 2c)
New engine query BTRIODevicePresent() (L4CTRL.cpp, ungated -- pod-correct for the serial RIO too): device exists AND IsOperational(). Both dev input bridges -- the mech4.cpp mapper-attr writes and the mechmppr.cpp BT_KEY_BRIDGE block -- now gate their WRITES on it: BT_KEY_BRIDGE unset = auto (bridge only when no device), 0 = force off (the documented pod setting, honored), else force on. The BT_FORCE_THROTTLE headless harness always rides the bridge. The mapper demand READ (turn = turnDemand) always runs. Verified live (glass build, PAD): OS-injected LSHIFT hold slews the PadRIO throttle 0 -> 0.33 -> 1.0 with pre==thr every frame -- the value arrives via the ENGINE push through the streamed .CTL binding, not the bridge -- and speedDemand=61.501 comes out of the authentic InterpretControls.

Controls: the .CTL positional-id off-by-one -- CONFIRMED live and FIXED (step 2a)
The streamed L4 mapping resource carries the binary's positional attribute ids (stick=3, throttle=4) but MechControlsMapper chained from Subsystem::NextAttributeID == 2 -- every streamed record resolved ONE MEMBER LATE (attr 4 -> pedalsPosition, verified via the new permanent BT_CTRLMAP_LOG diagnostic in CreateStreamedMappings). A latent real-pod bug: the serial RIO throttle would drive the pedals member; the dev keyboard bridge masked it. Fix per the mechweap/mech attrPad idiom: ids pinned to the binary numbering, id-2 gap padded, static_assert-locked. Torso + weapon chains verified already aligned. Regression: BT_FORCE_THROTTLE headless walk clean (speedDemand=61.501 through authentic InterpretControls, gait cycles, no faults). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Rear-fire + look views (task #68): the pod's rear arsenal reconstructed
The user's tip ("some mechs actually do fire backward") checks out end to
end. Binary ground truth [T1]:
- weapon+0x334 (attr 0x1B "RearFiring"): the ctor tests the MOUNT SEGMENT's
page name for the marker 'b' (@0x511aa2, part_013.c:6913-6930) -- the back
gun ports sitelbgunport/siterbgunport. The old reading ("EXT in the
weapon model name") was a double misread (wrong string, wrong name).
- mech+0x410 (attr id 50 "RearFiring"; the old `stateFlags` label): the ctor
ORs every weapon's flag (part_012.c:10220) -- "carries a rear arsenal".
- The mapper's five-state LOOK machine (part_013.c:396-459): on a state
change it re-aims the eyepoint (mech+0x360 = EyepointRotation -- consumed
by DPLEyeRenderable, already live in the port) and re-arms each weapon's
viewFireEnable(+0x3E0): FORWARD view = the non-rear weapons, LOOK-BACK
(yaw pi + lookBackAngle pitch) = the REAR-mounted ones, side/down = none.
+0x3E0 is the same flag the emitter's Loaded->Firing gate reads (the old
`useConfiguredPip` label) -- pips and fire permission both follow the view.
Port: rearFiring derived from the mount segment name (BTWeaponMountIsRear);
mech rearFiring ORed in the roster pass (the old SubProxy::IsDerivedFrom
stub returned 0 -- that loop never ran; now bridged through
BTWeaponIsRearFiring, which also fixes the weaponRoster fill); the look
commit is LIVE (BTCommitLookState: eyepoint EulerAngles from the authored
per-mech look angles -- now real members, were Wword scratch parks -- +
per-weapon view enables); MissileLauncher/ProjectileWeapon FireWeapon gate
on viewFireEnable like the emitter; RearFiring attrs (mech + weapon) bind
real members. Keyboard: HOLD 'V' = the pod's rear-view button.
Live-verified on the default blackhawk: ERMLaser_2 -> siterbgunport rear=1,
ERMLaser_3 -> sitelbgunport rear=1, PPCs/SRMs/torso mounts forward -- the
blackhawk authors TWO REAR LASERS (owens also has back ports). [rearfire]
trace under BT_PROJ_LOG.

Diag: speed-change investigation -- authentic analog throttle CONFIRMED, harnesses + gait probes (task #50)
Decomp workflow w0odszxro settled the speed model: the pod throttle was ANALOG- CONTINUOUS (RIO Ranger, 800 ADC counts, 0.05 deadband; sole detent = snap-to-1.0 within 0.05 @004d196c). '5 speeds' is FALSE -- the 1-5 keys are MFD mode pages; the 0..5 stepper is HUD/radar zoom. BONUS: throttleState@0x4a4 is a MISNOMER -- binary census proves it is the fall-contact surface material cache (0..7, init 2=Concrete), written only at knockdown; rename pending. Empirical rule-outs (autonomous drive-sweep harness, this commit): - Record density: with the clock guard + incremental heading in, a per-frame continuous demand sweep measures IDENTICAL to constant throttle on position evenness ([repljit]), render heading ([rendhdg]), and gait cadence ([gaitev]). - Type-3 stomps: ~0 fire in sustained sweeps (only at launch) -- not the driver. - The 0.05-grid keyboard publish experiment is retained env-gated OFF (BT_GRID_LEVER) -- the ADC was ~continuous, so the grid is NOT authentic and gains nothing measurable; default publish stays continuous (authentic). New tooling: BT_DRIVE_SWEEP[0] (forced-drive triangle sweep, optional through- zero), BT_FORCE_STEP (0.05-grid variant), BT_GAITEV (per-frame leg-clip advance + state-flip + demand-change stats), [t3rx] (type-3 stomp trace). STATUS: user still reports visible speed-change glitches in interactive play; all harness metrics saturate at baseline -- next step is probes ON the user's interactive session (their eyes + instruments on the same run).

MP: FIX keyboard-driving peer skip -- non-pose records no longer kick the dead-reckon clock (task #50)
The discriminating user report: peer motion was smooth under the autonomous harness but skipped when driven by KEYBOARD -- even pure walking / pure spinning. The harness pins throttle/turn constant; the keyboard SWEEPS the throttle lever every frame of a key-hold (mech4 sLever integrator), so mapper->speedDemand changes every frame, and the speed-deadband gate (authentic exact !=) fires a type-2 speed record EVERY FRAME for the whole accel/decel. The base reader Simulation::ReadUpdateRecord stamps lastUpdate=Now() on EVERY record (flagged 'HACK - should be based upon message->timeStamp' in the 1995 source) -- so each type-2 SHRINKS the peer reckoner's projection span (nextUpdate-lastUpdate) without refreshing updateOrigin: the position target jumps backward toward the stale origin, the next pose record yanks it forward -> target oscillation every frame during any input sweep. Matches the session-long 'worst on accel/decel'. FIX (mech.cpp Mech::ReadUpdateRecord): non-pose records (2,3,5,6,7,8) preserve lastUpdate around the base call (keeping the real payload, simulationState). Pose (0) and resync (4) keep their authentic clock behavior. BT_T2_CLOCK restores the old stamping for A/B. REPRO HARNESS (mechmppr.cpp): BT_FORCE_SWEEP=<period> triangle-sweeps the forced throttle 0.2..0.9 -- a type-2 record per frame, the keyboard-skip repro the constant-throttle harness could never produce. Verified A/B, autonomous circle+sweep (the keyboard regime): old clock: worst frame spike 10.4x avg, path/net ratio 1.069 (backtracking) guarded: worst 4.6x, ratio 1.0022 (no backtracking) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |

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).

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.

Mech: THE 0xBD3 UNTANGLE -- real SubsystemMessageManager in [0x10d], the mapper's one true home is roster slot 0 (task #7)
Binary census [T1]: mech+0x434 has exactly 2 writers (ctor init + factory case 0xBD3) and ONE reader (@0x4b984b in MechWeapon::SendDamageMessage @004b9728) -- pure message-manager semantics, nothing mapper-like. The factory case now builds the real SubsystemMessageManager (ctor @0049bca4, 0x130, ConsolidateAndSendDamage Performance); the misbuilt MechControlsMapper squatter is evicted. Every mapper consumer re-pointed to MappingMapper() (roster slot 0 = the binary's **(mech+0x128); SetMappingSubsystem @0049fe40 touches ONLY slot 0 -- its [0x10d] mirror removed). Non-viewpoint mechs get a slot-0 demand LATCH (base mapper, [T3] accommodation -- the binary leaves slot 0 NULL off-viewpoint but never drives/animates those paths; ours does). Verified: solo drive+gait clean; MP replicant gait through the latch (full run lifecycle); 3x kill/respawn cycle with type-6 records on the observer. Remaining (task #7 tail): the messmgr's consolidated TakeDamageStream send + weapon-path routing (@004b9728 real body). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Wire sizes verified live: 0x14/0x20/0x2c/0x78. - movementMode UNIFIED with Simulation::simulationState (binary mech+0x40 = StateIndicator@0x2c currentState) -- death/limbo/airborne now replicate in every record header. Three mislabels of the same binary fns retired: SetInstanceFlags + RequestActionFlags -> Mech::ForceUpdate (updateModel |= mask, 0xfe03 disabled filter); IsNetworkCopy -> IsDisabled. - Senders wired byte-exact: gait transitions Force(8), knockdown Force(1|0x20), death Force(1|0x40), Reset Force(0x1f) + binary zero-set, perf-loop deadbands (speed type 2, orientation type 4, heat type 7). - 2-node verified: types 2/3/4 flow while driving; kill -> type-6 record (simState=9) -> the OBSERVER's replicant runs the wreck sink loop with no double death transition; respawn 0x1f burst snaps + un-wrecks the peer; walking replicant un-regressed (run 12, cycle tracking); solo clean.

Fix "can't turn in MP": pilotArray[1] overrun stomped controlMode
User report from the first live 2-window session: throttle worked, A/D turn
did nothing. [mppr] showed the input REACHING the mapper (stickX=-1) but
turnDemand=0 and controlMode = pointer garbage (73583232 / 217478632 --
different per instance), from frame 1, MP only (solo mode=0).
Hunted with a cdb hardware write-breakpoint (ba w4 armed at ctor time on
&controlMode, compiled offset +0x128 from the [mode-ctor] probe). Caught the
writers red-handed: MechControlsMapper::BuildPilotArray / FillPilotArray.
ROOT CAUSE -- a shrunk-span array: the binary reserves a FIXED 10-slot pilot
block @0x15C..0x183 ((pilotArrayBuilt@0x184 - 0x15C)/4 = 10); the recon
declared `Pilot *pilotArray[1]` ("variable length"), so every write past
slot 0 stomps the members declared after it. In MP, FillPilotArray wrote the
PEER's Player pointer into slot 1 = over controlMode -> the turn shaping
dispatched on pointer garbage -> turnDemand 0. MASKED in solo: the zero-loop
overrun wrote 0 there, and 0 == BasicMode. This was ALSO the real cause of
task #48's "turnDemand zeroes out in -net" observation (worked around then
with the direct goto-turn; attribution corrected in the KB).
Fix: pilotArray sized to the binary's own 10-slot span; ctor zeroes all
slots; BuildPilotArray clamps pilotCount to capacity (local + 9 remotes; an
8-pod game fits). Diagnostics kept (BT_MODE_LOG ctor probe; [mppr] line now
prints mapper/&mode).
VERIFIED: MP session holds mode=0 throughout, turnDemand flows nonzero, the
mech turns (heading -1.33) and closes on the peer; solo kill chain intact.
KB: new "shrunk-span array" gotcha (reconstruction-gotchas 5) with the cdb
ba-w4 recipe; multiplayer.md task-#48 note corrected.

Gait v5: display+travel from the LEG channel (kills the stutter class)
User-reported recurrence of "legs stutter and lose sync". Live [sync] showed
advSum/legSum drifting 5->92 during walk-up churn, then locking. Reproduced
headlessly (BT_FORCE_OSC throttle feathering + BT_FORCE_TURN + the new
per-frame BT_SYNC_LOG probe) and root-caused in two parts:
- SEED: the bring-up turn-in-place trigger arms only the LEG channel, so the
walk re-entry lands one frame apart -> a persistent clip phase offset.
- AMPLIFIER: with offset clips the two end-of-clip callbacks fire on different
frames; a demand change landing between them picks DIFFERENT next states
(one channel winds down, the other keeps walking) -> opposite-phase churn
(observed bs=6 ls=7 -- body on walk-R, leg on walk-L).
Under v4 (display+travel = BODY) the out-of-phase LEG pose showed through on
every frame the body didn't write joints (Standing/wind-down) = the visible
stutter/pop.
DISASM GROUND TRUTH (neither Advance fn has a static decomp caller; found by
byte-scanning the CODE section for e8 calls):
- master perf (0x4a9b5c gap) -> AdvanceLegAnimation @0x4aa399 (air @0x4aa388)
-> -dist/dt into localVelocity (+0x1cc): the LEG drives LOCAL travel and
(writing last) the displayed pose;
- IntegrateMotion (0x4ab1c8, body advance @0x4ab312, caller FUN_004ab430 =
the projected-origin updater) -> -dist/dt into projectedVelocity (+0x2a0):
the BODY is the dead-reckoning PROJECTOR -- locally invisible.
v4's reading of FUN_004ab430 as the travel source was wrong.
FIX: advance body FIRST (projection; its writes get overwritten), leg LAST
(displayed pose); travel = legAdv under the two-channel split. Display ==
travel through the LEG by construction -- body-channel drift can no longer
become visible, structurally (not by input-symmetry luck).
Verified: trn+feathering repro clean; straight drive locked (adv==proj);
solo goto=enemy kill chain intact; MP 2-node drive-to-range cross-pod kill
intact (241 hits, DESTROYED); no crashes. KB corrected (locomotion.md roles
+ P3_LOCOMOTION.md v5 entry). New gated instruments: BT_SYNC_LOG,
BT_FORCE_OSC.

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.

gauge wave P2b: build the Comm KILLS/DEATHS pilot roster (PilotList)
PilotList (keyword "pilotList") was PROSE-ONLY, so the Comm surface showed only
the baked btcomm.pcx labels. Reconstructed all 7 functions from part_014.c:
3156-3434 (Make/ctor/dtor/BecameActive/TestInstance/Execute/DrawMechIcon), with
the 8x(x,y,layoutMode) layout table DAT_0051af88 PE-parsed exact from BTL4OPT.EXE.
Draws ONE roster slot/frame (round-robin) from the viewpoint mech's cockpit-mapper
pilot roster.
- Roster FEED: new BTResolveRosterPilot(slot) bridge in mechmppr.cpp (a complete-Mech
TU) resolves the viewpoint mech's ControlsMapper (subsystemArray[0]) -> GetPilot;
btl4gau3.cpp reads the returned pilot at raw BTPlayer offsets. The mapper's
FillPilotArray already fills the roster (pilotArray[0]=GetMissionPlayer,
[1..]=FindGroup("Players")).
- KILLS = killCount@0x27c (real; ScoreMessageHandler increments it in combat).
- DEATHS: the binary reads pad_0x280 which has NO writer anywhere (a shipped dead
field -> perpetual 0). FIX per "if it doesn't work, fix it": read the real
deaths counter Player::deathCount@0x200 (VehicleDeadMessageHandler increments it)
so DEATHS is meaningful in MP.
- DrawMechIcon: App+0xC8 name-bitmap cache is unwired (same deferral PlayerStatus
uses) -> LookupPlayerNameBitmap returns NULL -> the tinted name box (never an AV).
Dropped the bogus x,y from the header ctor (positions come from DAT_0051af88).
/FORCE-safe (all vtable slots real; link log clean, no unresolved PilotList/
BTResolveRosterPilot). Verified DBASE+dev gauges: the Comm surface now renders the
live local pilot row (KILLS 0 DEATHS 0 + name box; 0/0 authentic in solo -- the
combat scoring feed that moves them is Phase 3), combat un-regressed (DESTROYED),
0 crashes.

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.
