Enabling audio unlocked L4AudioRenderer::CreateEntityAudioObjects, which binds
AudioStateWatchers to entity/subsystem state attrs BY NAME (attribute-pointer
databinding) and calls AddAudioWatcher on them. The reconstruction pointed the
Mech's state attrs at the scalar read-pad `attrPad` (fine for gauges that READ a
value, fatal for a state watcher that calls a METHOD) -> AV in SChainOf::Add on
0xCDCDCDCD. Root-caused via cdb + a BT_ATTRBIND_LOG trace in AttributeWatcher.
Mech-level state audio now REAL + driven (verified: walking fires SetupPatch +
PlayNote/alSourcePlay, patches 78/80/116):
- AnimationState (0x1f) / ReplicantAnimationState (0x20): real StateIndicators
(0x21 states covering MechAnimationState 0..0x20), driven from SetBodyAnimation
so footstep/gait/transition sounds fire on animation change.
- CollisionState (0x16): real 4-state StateIndicator driven from ProcessCollision
via collisionTemporaryState (the deferred @4aa741 per-frame zero + the
part_012.c:15406-15413 contact tail, InitialHit accumulation; the 1-vs-2 Slide
split awaits the 0x240/0x244 floats still stubbed by fieldAt()).
- @0x44c CORRECTED: "ammoState (0/1 leaking/2 dry)" was a mislabel -> it is
collisionTemporaryState (never read as ammo).
Bring-up guards [T3, temporary, self-clearing] so audio-on is STABLE while the
subsystem state models are still stubs (Generators/Condensers/Myomers/Torso/
Avionics/Reservoir/ControlsMapper -- ~15 subsystems, ~40 attrs: GeneratorState,
CondenserState, ReportLeak, ...): a NULL subsystem attr redirects to an inert pad
(was a fatal Fail); an AudioStateWatcher on an unconstructed StateIndicator (null/
0xCDCDCDCD) skips instead of AV. Both pass automatically once the subsystem is
reconstructed. Those subsystem sounds stay silent until then (their audio wave).
