Prompted by "does the steam path still generate our logs?". Answer: yes -- play_steam.bat sets BT_LOG=steam.log with append, and matchlogs arm because both Steam launch paths pass -net (the default trigger). But the audit found two evidence-destroying bugs on the way: 1. play_steam.bat DELETED the previous steam.log at every launch -- the same pattern fixed in join.bat/join_lan.bat last night. A Steam player who crashes and relaunches loses the stack. Now rotates to steam.old.log. 2. WORSE: play_solo.bat and joyconfig.bat deleted content\join.log -- the MULTIPLAYER log, not theirs. A player who crashed in MP and then ran solo to investigate (or ran the joystick wizard) DESTROYED THEIR OWN CRASH EVIDENCE. That is a very plausible part of how Conn Man's owens-laser stack vanished (#35) -- he had every reason to poke around after crashing. Each bat now writes its OWN log (solo.log / joyconfig.log), rotates it, and never touches join.log. Their launch-forensics + "send the operator" lines are repointed to match. VERIFIED in the zip layout (the bats need build\ + content\ beside them, so a repo-relative test is meaningless -- my first two attempts hit the badpath guard and proved nothing): solo.log = [boot] btl4 4.11.599 ... (the NEW run) solo.old.log = OLD-SOLO-CONTENT (rotated, not deleted) join.log = SEEDED-MP-EVIDENCE (untouched by the solo run) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
