RETRACTION + FIX: the myomer seek->speed coupling IS in the 4.10 binary --
restored byte-grounded; the morning's removal was export-gap blindness Player testimony (Oracle, pod veteran: seek-4 humanoid = 182 kph -- the manual's printed Super Charged figure; overheat = 'freezing up') forced a re-audit of the morning's 'no dynamic myomer->speed feed' verdict. The verdict was WRONG: a raw-image capstone sweep for FPU reads of [reg+0x31C] found the consumer inside the UN-EXPORTED master-perf region -- the same decomp gap that hid the #93 crash block. Decoded @0x4a9cf2-0x4a9da4 [T1]: per frame: MAX speedEffect@0x31C over the myomer chain (+0x7AC) -> mech+0x79C mapper->speedDemand@0x128 *= it (the SPEED coupling) if |drive| <= 1e-4 (@0x4ab16c): mapper->turnDemand@0x12C = 0 (the FREEZE) Everything the manual + the veterans describe emerges: gear 4 rides speedEffect ~1.43 into the RegisterMaxOutput gait cap (base x 1.4284 -- the two mechanisms interlock: 61.5 x 1.43 = 87.9 vs cap 87.8 measured) = SUPERCHARGE; myomer heatFactor degradation slows you; overheat freezes speed AND turn; damage slows (speedEffect carries 1-damage -- #75's original premise was RIGHT and its 'falsified' close was wrong). Restored in mechmppr.cpp, byte-grounded and better than the pre-removal draft: MAX over the chain (was first-found), NO 1.0 clamp (the old clamp ate the overdrive), turn-freeze included. BTMyomersSpeedEffectOf (unclamped) replaces the deleted BTMyomersDriveOf. Verified live: healthy drive=1.0 (no speed change), collision-rattled myomers drive 0.999 -> 0.892 -> 0.742 with demand scaling in lockstep (61.5 -> 54.9 -> 45.7). KB corrected in place (subsystems WAVE 6, pod-hardware manual audit retraction, open-questions resolved) + NEW GOTCHA #21: export-gap blindness -- 'no callers in the decomp' is not 'no callers in the binary'; sweep the raw image for the operand pattern before declaring a data path dead, and when a primary source disagrees with your decomp sweep, suspect your evidence first.

myomer system COMPLETE -- the 'WAVE 6 mover cutover' was a phantom built on
a misattribution; the authentic couplings are all live
THE CORRECTION [T1]: @004b9550/@004b95b8 ('ConnectToMover'/'Disconnect
FromMover') are MechWeapon::ConfigureMappables/ChooseButton -- their +0x31C
is the weapon TriggerState and **(mech+0x128) is the CONTROLS MAPPER's
button roster (the MECHWEAP.CPP assert string + the trigger-edge detector
@004b9608 sit adjacent in the image). The binary has NO dynamic myomer->
speed feed: AvailableOutput has exactly TWO callers in the whole image --
RegisterMaxOutput (assembly) and the SeekVoltageGraph sampler -- and
speedEffect@0x31C is a published GAUGE attribute.
The authentic myomer system (now fully live):
1. drive heat (#85, this morning);
2. VITAL death -- myomers are the only authored vital=1 subsystem
(BTL4.RES res+0x48 scan): destroying them kills the mech via the #80
vital-crit path (this is also the ram-death mechanism -- myomers are a
0.35-weight collision-rattle target);
3. the assembly-time gait cap: RegisterMaxOutput @004b8ef0 raises
mech+0x7A0 to AvailableOutput(top gear) = base x ~1.4284 -- now called
(idempotent max, per tick; the 0x358 layout lock leaves no latch room)
with real OwnerBaseSpeed/OwnerMaxSpeed bridges; the old per-frame
reverseSpeedMax2 heal that would have clobbered it is garbage-guarded;
4. the ENG-page power curve at correct absolute scale (real base speed);
5. electrical sourcing (low gears run on a browned-out generator).
REMOVED (inventions): the mechmppr `speedDemand *= speedEffect` demand
multiplier + BTMyomersDriveOf + the Myomers ConnectToMover/MoverAttach
family. Damaged-but-alive myomers heat faster and drop the power curve
but do NOT slow the mech (gitea #75's premise is falsified by the binary;
the real damage slowdown is the LEG-damage gimp gait). Seek gears change
heat/sourcing/graph -- never speed.
Verified live: a mech at myomer dmg=0.234 (speedEffect attr 0.766)
beelines at full commanded speed with dmgGain=1.234 heat; 0 faults.

#88 part 2: the central coolant pull-through -- HeatSink::DrawCoolant was a
return-0 stub; the Reservoir BAR now drops when a damaged mech leaks The user watched the coolant panel's level bar during the leak bench and it never moved -- correctly: a leaking subsystem drained only its own loop, because the slot-14 top-up (DrawCoolant) was stubbed. Disassembled the real base @0x4add00: the draw RECURSES UP the sink linkage, scaling by coolantFlowScale@0x15C per hop, terminating at the Reservoir's supply (@0x4af3b0 -- clamp to [0, coolantLevel], drain the tank, return granted -- already faithfully ported as Reservoir::DrawCoolant). The binary's terminal hop is the bank's slot-14 override @0x4ae8b0 resolving its reservoir connection @0x1D8 (the port's 'helper' member -- not vestigial after all); the port's existing Reservoir-ctor Attach + Reservoir override terminate the same chain equivalently (the extra bank hop scales by ctor-default 1.0). Implemented the base recursion (null-guarded -- the binary calls through the resolved link unguarded; authored topology always links) + a BT_COOL_LOG [resdraw] probe at the supply. Verified live: a destroyed myomer's damage leak pulled the central tank 6.0 -> 5.58 over ~30s ([resdraw] granted lines) -- Reservoir/CoolantMass, the cockpit coolant bar, now visibly drops as a damaged mech bleeds coolant, and DeathReset refills it on respawn.

#88: coolant leaks LIVE -- the #64 damageZone shadow was the single break
in the leak chain HeatSink::UpdateCoolant prices the damage-driven leak from the QUALIFIED engine member (Subsystem::damageZone @0xE0): coolantDraw = zoneDamage * heatLoad, with the coolantActive hysteresis (= the ReportLeak attribute the 19 authored leak watchers ride). But the MechSubsystem ctor only ever filled its re-declared SHADOW member (gitea #64, gotcha #1), so the engine member stayed NULL forever, zoneDamage pinned 0, and a coolant leak was STRUCTURALLY IMPOSSIBLE no matter how much damage landed -- Oracle's night-7 report exactly. The #80 crit fix and the #83 collision rattle write real subsystem-zone damage, but into an object the leak reader could never see. Fix: alias the ENGINE base member to the same zone in both MechSubsystem ctors. Every shadow reader keeps working (same object); the engine base Subsystem::TakeDamage latent null-AV (#64 consequence 2) is disarmed; the full #64 de-shadow sweep remains the long-term cleanup. Verified live (solo, BT_COOL_LOG/BT_CRIT_LOG): collision rattle drove a damaged Myomers to [cool] draw = dmg*heatLoad with the level draining; sustained weapon fire rolled real crits ([critroll]) and produced 588 leak-pricing lines. Authored routing extracted from BTL4.RES: collision rattle targets HeatSinkBank 0.3 / Gyro 0.35 / Torso 0.25 / Myomers 0.35 (Condenser+Reservoir authored 0 for collisions); weapon crits select via the zone's crit-entry list. Known-remaining fidelity item (documented): HeatSink::DrawCoolant (slot 14, central top-up) is still a return-0 TODO.

#85: myomer drive heat LIVE -- the five Mech motion operands were return-0
shims, so the reconstructed integrator @004b8d18 accumulated zero forever
The integrator, its gates and the heat plumbing were all reconstructed and
running -- but OwnerVelocityMag/OwnerDriveMag/OwnerVelocityY/OwnerMotionGain/
OwnerMass were cross-family compile shims returning 0.0f, so the myomers
priced ratio^2 * damageGain * 0 every tick: ice cold at any seek (Oracle's
night-7 panel-confirmed report).
Operands re-grounded against the raw disasm + decomp and mapped to NAMED
members via a complete-Mech-TU bridge (BTMechMyomerMotionSample, mech4.cpp),
per the databinding rule:
+0x1C4 vec -> localVelocity.linearMotion
+0x82C vec -> localAcceleration.linearMotion (the authentic 15-ring
smoothed AccelerationLastFrame the port already maintains)
+0x20C -> moverMass (the collision divert's cell; the old "motion
gain" label was a misread)
*(+0x250) -> environment gravity (FUN_00421e2c: vy -= **(+0x250)/tick),
via GetEnvironment()->gravityConstant
So the heat physics reads: 0.005 * 1/2 m v^2 (kinetic work, per-tick/no-dt
in the binary -- kept verbatim, frame-rate note documented) + 0.2 * m g
|vy| dt (climb power) + 0.2 * m |v||a| dt (acceleration power), all scaled
by ratio^2 and (1 + zone damage). Restored the binary's fabs(v.y) (the
draft had signed vy -- descending would have COOLED).
Authored tuning extracted from BTL4.RES (18 mech records, one shared
tuning): VelocityEfficiency=0.995, AccelerationEfficiency=0.8, gears
0.3/0.5/0.7/0.9999 rec idx 2; myomer thermal profile 77/1000/2000,
conductance 1.9e5, thermalMass 2.5e5.
Live-verified (solo arena, BT_MYO_LOG + BT_HEAT_LOG): standstill generates
~0; hard circling drove Myomers T 77 -> 1225 (past the 1000 degradation
line) and the coolant loop conducted it back to ~520 equilibrium on
slowing; damageGain live at 1.048 from grind rattle.
Known-inert remainder (filed in open-questions): the climb term reads g=0
because Mover::localEnvironment is never populated in the port
(EnvironmentZone res type 23 unwired); the mover feed (speedEffect ->
locomotion) stays WAVE 6.

the crit system, complete: two gap functions recovered, the dead sink revived, and a wrong verdict reversed (#80)
The whole critical-hit pipeline was dark, three layers deep, and one of those
layers had fooled us into a false conclusion about the 1995 binary itself.
LAYER 1 -- the trigger, recovered from the un-exported gap. The Mech MESSAGE
TABLE at 0x50bdf8 ({id, name, handler} rows) names the real
Mech::TakeDamageMessageHandler at 0x4a0230 -- message 0x12 "TakeDamage" --
plus seven sibling handlers (PlayerLink, RealMaxSpeed, BalanceCoolant,
Set/ClearBurningState, EjectPilot, DuckRequest). Inside it, the crit chance
at 0x4a0164: p = clamp(0.7 * damageLevel^2 + 0.01, 0..1), gated on the
player's simLive flag (+0x25c -- novice never crits), rolled PER BURST on the
current zone, skipping a zone already burning. Chance is ~1% on fresh armour,
~18% at half-stripped, ~58% at 90% -- crits arrive exactly as armour fails.
The handler's application loop replaces the engine base's single call, which
ignored burstCount entirely (multi-burst damage under-applied (burst-1)x).
Faithful shape: per burst, crit-roll -> CriticalHit @0049ccc4 (which routes
half the amount through the armour internally and picks ONE critical
subsystem by criticalWeight) else zone->TakeDamage -- then RE-RUN the
cylinder lottery from the impact point for the next burst, stopping early
once the mech is disabled. Multi-burst damage sprays across zones by design.
LAYER 2 -- the sink. MechSubsystem::TakeDamage was an empty btstubs stand-in;
the real body is at 0x4ac0bc (CLASSMAP had that address mislabeled
"HandleMessage"): zone damage, then on level >= 1.0 the Destroyed alarm, the
PrintState gate, the 1.0 pin, and -- for a vital subsystem -- the owner
mech's graphicAlarm to level 9, the same fall/death level the leg path
raises. That is the #28 vital-subsystem kill machinery, now real.
LAYER 3 -- the one that rewrites yesterday. The subsystem ctor DID copy
armour points + per-type scales into the private zone -- through the
ReconDamageZone PROXY, whose fields sit at struct offsets +4/+8, not the
binary's +0x140/+0x144. The floats landed on the engine object's header and
the real damageScale[] stayed zero. The 2026-07-28 experiment that "proved"
subsystem zones cannot be damaged -- and that the Myomers un-powered
self-repair was dead code in the original -- was measuring exactly this port
bug. Both verdicts reversed: the binary ctor (0x4ac7bb) initializes the zone
from the resource keys WeaponDamagePoints (required) + CriticalHitScoreBonus
(required) + Collision/Ballistic/Explosive/Laser/EnergyDamagePoints, none of
which the CSS parsed. Now parsed (with the binary's own error strings), and
the ctor writes the engine's NAMED members -- layout-parity holds, so they
land on +0x140/+0x144 faithfully. The Myomers repair branch is LIVE, in 1995
and here. KB corrected and swept (combat-damage, subsystems WAVE 6,
myomers.cpp, CLASSMAP).
Live-verified twice: [subarmor] prints real parsed scales for every subsystem
at spawn (HeatSink pts=10 scale=0.1x5, Condensers pts=5 scale=0.2x5, ...);
[critroll] landed full-chain crits in both runs (zone -> weighted pick ->
subsystem's own zone driven to 1.0 -> Destroyed); mech death/respawn and the
ammo gates un-regressed; zero crashes/asserts. Honest gaps: burst>1 spraying
is transcribed but not yet exercised live (self-damage fires burst=1), the
damageType==0 COLLISION divert (@0x49ffcc) is documented-not-reconstructed,
and the id-0x16 damage/kill report messages to the players (the authentic
stats plumbing, decoded to field level in the KB) are deferred to the #45
work.
Diags: BT_CRIT_LOG ([subarmor] + [critroll]), the existing BT_DMG_LOG.

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

Searchlight + ThermalSight ToggleLamp WIRED (#61) -- and a swapped table attribution ROOT-CAUSED, retracting a false "1995 latent bug"
Both classes' Receiver::MessageHandlerSet were default-constructed blackholes (input-path audit systemic cause #1): entryCount 0, no parent chain, Find() returns NullHandler for every id, Receive drops silently. The new unhandled- message trace printed it on the first press: [btntest] PRESS 0x14 at poll 400 [msg] UNHANDLED: Searchlight has no handler for message id 3 Each class now has a GetMessageHandlers() function-local static chained to PowerWatcher's (which name-resolves through HeatWatcher/MechSubsystem to Receiver's empty ROOT set, so id 3 does NOT collide with HeatSink's ToggleCooling), plus a correctly-typed forwarder -- Receiver::Handler is void(const Message*) while the decomp shape is Logical(Message&), so a cast would be UB that merely happens to work on x86 __thiscall. DefaultData re-pointed off the dead empty sets. MessageArg now reads the NAMED ReceiverDataMessageOf<int>::dataContents with a static_assert locking it to the binary's message+0xC (was a raw offset read -- databinding rule). ROOT CAUSE of a long-standing misattribution: @004b860c is **ThermalSight's** ToggleLamp (table @0x51120C), NOT Searchlight's. The two TUs emit parallel shared-data blocks with identical stride (msg entry, +0x5C attrs, +0x84 Performance triple); what pins each entry to its TU is that "ToggleLamp" is NOT pooled across them -- two copies exist, each emitted immediately before its own class-name string ("Searchlight"@0x51144B, "ThermalSight"@0x511475). [T1: reference/decomp/section_dump.txt:69661-69711] Searchlight's own handler is @004b838c, which sits in a Ghidra EXPORT GAP (#60). RECOVERED by raw disassembly of content/BTL4OPT.EXE (scratchpad/dis838c.py, the EjectAmmo technique) -- and it corrected two things I had inferred wrong: * NO ControlsAllowLights/+0x25C novice gate. Searchlight tests the press alone; that lock is ThermalSight-only. A NOVICE pilot CAN work the lamp. * `or word ptr [this+0x18],1` sits AT the jle target -> the graphics-dirty bit (updateModel == ForceUpdate(), per #59) is raised UNCONDITIONALLY. Consequence: the "ORIGINAL 1995 LATENT BUG -- the searchlight can never light" claim is RETRACTED. It compared Searchlight's Performance (@004b841c, reads requestedOn@0x1E0) against ThermalSight's toggle (0x1DC) -- two different classes -- and so invented a missing 0x1DC->0x1E0 bridge. Every sibling toggles the field its own Performance reads. The searchlight DID light in the arcade, the searchlight->fog swap was NOT inert there, and building PullFogRenderable is FAITHFUL rather than a designer-intent deviation (the 2026-07-13 "left as-is" decision is void; the sim needs no repair). Verified live, real click seam (BT_BTNTEST): 0x14 -> [light] requested ON -> reported lightState 0 -> 1 (lamp lights) 0x12 -> [light] thermal sight requested ON -> thermalActive 0 -> 1 UNHANDLED lines for both classes gone; 40 LNK2019 unchanged (the pre-existing CreateStreamedSubsystem + Entity__SharedData::DefaultData families only). Swept the misattribution out of searchlight.cpp/.hpp, thermalsight.cpp/.hpp, hud.cpp:282 (it had claimed @00511180/@004b838c as HUD's), btplayer.cpp's +0x25C consumer list, context/{decomp-reference,subsystems,rendering,open-questions, pod-hardware,experience-levels}.md, docs/{GLASS_COCKPIT,INPUT_PATH_AUDIT}.md. checkctx.py CLEAN. Still open (documented, not fixed): ThermalSight has no visible IR effect (ToggleGlobalThermalVision is a marked no-op, pvision unported, IsLocallyViewed returns False); ThermalSight publishes "LightState"->0x1D8 where the binary has "LightOn"->0x1D8 and "LightState"->0x1E0; Searchlight's commandedOn@0x1DC has no identified role and measured 21 live, hinting our SubsystemResource +0x28 differs from the binary's.

Valve forensics + KB: the boost mechanic is real; the field cook-off was a detent question
Measured A/B/C (Blackhawk, sustained autofire, 150s soaks): SRM6 on
Condenser2 plateaus ~531 and COOLS at share 0.91 (boost 2), climbs to
the jam band at balanced (0.167), and runs at the 2000 failure line
starved (0.018). MoveValve reruns the redistribute every press;
veteran passes the novice guard. The field 'boosted loop 2 still
cooked' therefore means the valve was NOT at the 50 detent during the
fight -- the 1->5->50->0 cycle turns the loop OFF one press past max.
MoveValve presses now log always-on ('[valve] <name> -> detent N' +
a CLOSED warning) so the next field session records the detents.
Also: solo mission clock verified live (60s egg self-ends,
'[mission] solo game clock expired' -> RunMissions returns).

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.

KB: sweep STALE "unfinished" claims -> match landed commits (context-system audit)
4-agent audit cross-checked every open/pending/stub/deferred claim in the context system against git + code. Fixed ~13 stale spots (currency only, no code change), each contradicted by its own file body + a landed commit: - 0xBD3 SubsystemMessageManager (task #7, |

KB: document the searchlight fog-swap latent bug (task #63, left as-is by decision)
Investigation (workflow) found the searchlight-driven fog swap never worked in the ORIGINAL 1995 binary either -- it's a latent bug, not a port regression: SearchlightSimulation (@004b841c) reads requestedOn@0x1E0 (never written) while ToggleLamp (@004b860c) toggles commandedOn@0x1DC; no bridge exists, so lightState @0x1D8 is perpetually 0 (lamp never lights). The self-consistent sibling ThermalSight reads the field it toggles (0x1DC) -- the tell. The port reproduces the bug faithfully (searchlight.cpp:189). Additionally the port never constructs PullFogRenderable, so even absent the bug the swap wouldn't fire. Decision: LEAVE AS-IS + document (faithful to the buggy original); the port keeps the static lights-ON fog= values. A working swap would DEVIATE from the shipped binary (repair the sim to read commandedOn + construct PullFogRenderable at the btl4vid MakeMechRenderables inside pass + a toggle input) -- fully scoped in the KB if ever wanted. No code change this commit. Documented in rendering.md (fog section), open-questions.md (deferred subsystems), subsystems.md (Searchlight). Core per-map/time/weather fog (task #63) is unaffected.

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).

Combat: the AUTHENTIC consolidated damage delivery -- TakeDamageStream through the message manager (task #7 tail)
ConsolidateAndSendDamage @0049b784 fully implemented: the beam path submits
into AddDamageMessage; each messmgr tick builds ONE Entity::
TakeDamageStreamMessage (id 0x13; wire-verified 0x34+4+Nx12) with the
common impact record + appended {type, amount, subsystemID} entries and
Dispatches it at the victim -- the T0 handler (ENTITY.cpp:817) re-splits
into per-record TakeDamage; replicants reroute cross-pod. Real
ResolveExplosionID (firing weapon's +0x3E4, guarded) + SubmitExplosion via
the Explosion::Make port; TWO chain-purge bugs fixed (the "iterator dtor
clears it" assumption was wrong -- records re-applied every tick, observed
1->2->3->4 double-counting). @004b9728 identity corrected (SendDamageMessage,
not DrawWeaponPip). Verified solo: 25 clean single-record consolidations ->
kill -> death transition. Residue: weapon-side submission awaits the
damage-economy reconciliation (authored 0.25-scale vs kShotDamage=12).

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: complete migration -> CLAUDE.md is now a 160-line router (zero context lost)
Full migration of the 2236-line monolithic CLAUDE.md into the progressive-context knowledge graph (per spark-lesson / expert-seed.md), so the deep RE knowledge loads on-demand instead of every session. ZERO CONTEXT LOST: - docs/PROGRESS_LOG.md = the complete old CLAUDE.md, VERBATIM (byte-identical) -- the lossless safety net + the "full detail" quick-lookup fallback. - 18 context/*.md topic files (1343 lines) digest every section (§1-3 -> project-overview, §4 -> content-archives, §5 -> asset-formats/bgf-format, §5a -> source-completeness, §5b/§8 -> wintesla-port, §7/§10 -> locomotion, §10a -> build-and-run, §10b -> reconstruction-method, §10c -> combat-damage + reconstruction-gotchas, §10d -> subsystems, render notes -> rendering, gauges -> gauges-hud, MP -> multiplayer, §9 -> open-questions). - reference/glossary.yaml (53 terms). decomp-reference.md = the offsets/ClassIDs/addresses hub. CLAUDE.md (160 lines) = router: identity, answer/reason protocols, quick-lookup table, evidence tiers (T0 engine-truth / T1 decompiled+verified / T2 reconstructed+runtime / T3 guarded / T4 hypothesis), conventions + DO-NOT (the systemic bug classes), structure. Retains the load-bearing work directives (build recipe pointer, "keep current" mandate). Knowledge graph validates CLEAN (scratchpad/checkctx.py -- all [[links]] + quick-lookup + docs refs resolve; [[name]] -> topic file or glossary term). docs/*.md ledgers stay as the detailed logs; context/*.md are the curated digests that route into them.
