* SpecialCaseDeathPenalty restored to the engine ScenarioRole (SCNROLE.h/
.cpp) -- the 4.10-only role field the 2007 WinTesla source dropped
(record slot [1] after KillBonus, fail-hard read; role+0x20; the
DefaultRendererRate pattern). Its consumer decoded from the @004c05c4
export gap (@004c07cd, missing from the #52 reconstruction): every
death with advancedDamageOn hands the ENGINE base ScoreMessageHandler
(@0042da20 == PLAYER.cpp:138, a DIRECT call bypassing the BT type
Verifies) a type-1 award of -penalty. Wired verbatim. Shipped content
authors the key nowhere -> cost 0 in the field. NUANCE [T4]: the 1995
engine adds at Player+0x1c8, which no BT scoreboard reads (+0x278) --
the pod's cost may never have displayed; our single-cell port shows it.
* The eject console notice: FUN_004c198c IS the
ConsolePlayerMechDeathWithoutHonorMessage ctor (T0 BTCNSL.CPP survives
and is compiled) -- "death without honor" is the punch-out record.
BTPlayerEjectBookkeeping now sends it to the console host through the
same ConsoleClientID path as the VTVDamaged notify, then latches
suppressConsole: the eject notice REPLACES the death notify. Verified
two-node: "notice -> console host 1" fires on the ejecting node; the
relay-side delivery of client-5 traffic is a pre-existing question
shared with the never-observed VTVDamaged sibling (operator-console
workstream).
* Eject alarm-10 audio: resolved NEGATIVE -- the five Eject*.wav ship in
AUDIO/ but BTL4.RES references them nowhere (orphaned like the SQUAT
clips); wiring them would be a stand-in. Operator-optional deviation.
* RIO 0x38 panic control: deferred with the plumbing documented (the
glass Flight-Controls window already renders the 0x38 bank; consumer =
read buttonGroup[ButtonPanic] alongside the binding-engine edge) --
pod-hardware-only, untestable on this bench.
Two-node verify (fresh-exe rerun after a stale-exe trap): REFUSED
healthy, PUNCH-OUT after generator kill, death + wreck swap + smoke +
un-wreck warp all replicated on the observer, respawned mech refuses
again, console notice fired.
