Input: PadRIO -- play without the pod (L4CONTROLS=PAD), Workstream A.1
Ported from RP412: RIOBase split out of the serial RIO (L4RIO.h), rioPointer is RIOBase* (L4CTRL.h), PAD token -> new PadRIO() speaking the RIO surface from an XInput pad + keyboard (L4PADRIO/L4PADBINDINGS, vRIO bindings.txt grammar, hot-plug), KeyLight RGB mirror TU (BT412KEYLIGHT, /std:c++17 per-file). BT-side fixes PadRIO forced into the open: - Both keyboard input bridges (mech4.cpp, mechmppr.cpp BT_KEY_BRIDGE) stand down when a RIO device exists -- they overwrote the engine controls push every frame. M/X conveniences stay live. - Mapper attribute chain OFF BY ONE (latent real-pod bug): the DOS chain below MechControlsMapper carried two base attributes, WinTesla carries one, and AttributeIndexSet::Find is positional -- the .CTL stick mapping wrote throttlePosition. Pad slot + binary-locked enum; gotcha ledgered (reconstruction-gotchas #11). Verified: PAD throttle lever ramps + sticks, stick turns with the authentic speed-vs-turn clamp (61.5 -> 22.0 u/s), mech drives; keyboard fallback intact (BT_FORCE_THROTTLE harness). New diags: BT_CTRLMAP_LOG, BT_STICK_LOG. (Phase 2 of docs/BT412-ROADMAP.md) Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

MP live-play wave: collision economy, missiles, radar transform, panel polarity, comm ticker
The interactive 2-node playtest wave -- every fix decomp-grounded and live-verified: COLLISION ECONOMY (the ram one-shot): StaticBounce mutates worldLinearVelocity per contact and ProcessCollisionList walks EVERY touched solid per frame; with 2007 terrain-as-solids the reflections compounded x4-x40 within one frame and a walking bump one-shot a pristine mech for 112,375 pts (62-pt authentic economy). Fix: frameEntryWorldVelocity restore per contact (damage always priced at the real approach speed -- all the binary's physics ever saw); Mech::Reset zeroes the mover motion (respawn = teleport); [collide-tx]/[mp-hdlr] telemetry. Gotcha #16 (engine-facility drift class). MISSILES: peer-visible salvos (the launcher record extension carries a salvo counter + aim point; ForceUpdate actually enqueues it -- the dirty flag alone never serialized), the authentic arc (authored MuzzleVelocity vector + the Seeker's 200m/0.1/300 loft + gain-4 steering, decoded from @004beae4/@004bef78), world-impact bursts (rounds detonate on cave geometry instead of phasing through), contact-only damage (flight-cap expiry = fizzle, no more teleport damage), live re-lead, and ballistic (unguided) shells for autocannons. projweap's stale BTPushProjectile extern (the /FORCE signature trap, gotcha #6 corollary) crashed the Avatar's first AFC100 shot -- fixed + sweep rule recorded. RADAR: two transcription bugs made the scope permanently empty -- FUN_0040b244 is the affine INVERSE (not a copy) and FUN_0040adec writes ONLY the 3x3 rotation (never the translation); worldToView now Invert(view) built rotation-first. CulturalIcons sorted out of the moving grid (the phantom red pips were map props), visible-radius culls on all three draw passes, live pip verified at |delta| x ppm px. Gotcha #17 (verify the FUN_ body, not its call shape). WEAPON PANELS (the frozen-dial hunt): the binary's *(subsystem+0x40) means FAILED -- the recon's 'operating' name was backwards, inverting the destroyed-X lamps, the panel look, the children enable and the ready-lamp gate (which had NEVER executed). Polarity chain corrected end-to-end (failedState, fed by real damage saturation). Root cause of the freezes: MFD page-mode gating -- the dev composite shows ALL pages at once, so off-page dials legitimately stopped; under BT_DEV_GAUGES the 15 page-plane bits stay active (the exclusive secondary trio untouched). The SEH gauge guard now names its kills; repaint-heal resets the incremental arc after panel repaints; [panel]/[arc] probes added. COMM/SCORE: MessageBoard LIVE (the engine already shipped the whole Player__StatusMessage queue; wired the binary's one producer -- the kill branch, victim's name, 6s -- plus the consumer bridge and a lazy source bind); MP DEATHS counted via the observed-death tally (each node scores every pilot from locally observed events, the same model as the KILLS credit) and the -2/-1 engine seed clamped for display. DEV UX: node-tagged window titles (-net port), gauge panel reworked (1320x480, true 4:3 MFD cells, the portrait secondary UNROTATED upright, linear filtering, BT_GAUGE_SCALE), fixed close spawns via BT_SPAWN_XZ, Boreas flies an Avatar (first second-chassis live outing).

Gauges: the CLOSEOUT wave -- radar pips, Myomers dedup, attribute parity, ledger sweep (tasks #14-#17)
TASK #17 -- AUTHENTIC RADAR SYMBOLOGY (the cross-blip stand-in retired). The recon proved the 'missing pip raster set' never existed as BT game code: pips are the ENGINE's L4GaugeImage vector-stroke system (T0 source in tree, L4GAUIMA.cpp == FUN_0046f0c0 line-for-line), the 'pip table' is L4Warehouse:: gaugeImageBin keyed by Entity::resourceID, and BTL4.RES ships 110 type-0x12 shapes (every mech/vehicle/building/tree). The six btl4rdr stubs are wired to the real facilities: contacts draw their authentic model silhouettes with LOD selection, the target gets the binary's 4px-inflated box highlight, and player-name labels resolve via Mission::GetSmallNameBitmap (the prebuilt 64x16 egg rasters keyed by the player's bitmapindex). DECODED: the invented 'VideoObject' was Entity::owningPlayer all along (+0x190; nameID = playerBitmapIndex@0x1E0, target = BTPlayer::objectiveMech@0x284 -- new bridge BTPlayerObjectiveMechOf); the 'LabelledEntity' class is Landmark (cultural.h; label path dormant -- no landmark content ships, no runtime landmarkID writer). The L4GREND BT_DEV_GAUGES warehouse guard is removed (its AV had a different culprit, below); resource type 18 corrected to GaugeImageStream in decomp-reference (was mislabeled 'ModelList'). TASK #14 -- the Myomers ODR duplicate ELIMINATED: the powersub.cpp/hpp 'Myomers' (classID 0xBC3 -- actually Sensor) is retired whole; it duplicated ?DefaultData@Myomers@@ against the real class (dumpbin-verified) and /FORCE picked the winner by link order. The real Myomers (0xBC6) now chains PoweredSubsystem's handler set (ids 4-8) and publishes its SEVEN binary attributes (@00511588: SpeedEffect/Current/Recommended/Min/MaxSeekVoltage- Index/SeekVoltage/OutputVoltage) -- the old empty unchained index starved the Myomer engineering panel of every resolve. TASK #16 -- attribute parity: MechWeapon publishes the FULL binary table @0x511890 (11 entries; ids renumbered to binary truth -- the port aliases had squatted the binary's DistanceToTarget/TargetWithinRange ids; the streamed TriggerState 0x13 binding unchanged). Binary names resolved two TODO members: pipState -> estimatedReadyTime (attr 0x1A), and the EXT-model flag is the binary's RearFiring (0x1B). ThermalSight LightState published. HUD (offset conflicts) + missile-side tables (id encoding suspect) documented for a re-dump instead of publishing blind. THE CRASH THIS EXPOSED [T2, cdb-verified]: gotcha #11's dense-table gap is a LATENT AV, not a guaranteed one -- the old table's 0x0D..0x12 gap (task #5) survived on heap luck; the renumber reshuffled allocations and Find() AV'd on a garbage entryName in WeaponCluster's PercentDone resolve. Fixed with five named PAD entries (the mech.cpp attrPad idiom) + a static_assert locking the pad base to PoweredSubsystem::NextAttributeID. Gotcha #11 amended with the proof. TASK #15 -- stale-ledger sweep: GAUGE_COMPOSITE ('composite not yet built', Reservoir shadow, PlayerStatus/vehicleSubSystems 'remaining', valve-dormant- until-0xBD3, sensor guard, the superseded 'Heat MFD near-static' reframe -- all banner-corrected), gauges-hud frontmatter, L4VB16 + powersub comments. Verified live: 50/50 config attribute bindings resolve, 0 NULLs, 0 parse skips, mech spawns and simulates 31/31 subsystems, no cross-blip fallbacks, the pip cache fills through entity registration without the old guard.

Cockpit: GENERATOR POWER ROUTING -- assign weapons to generators (task #12)
The pilot's second heat-management tool: the PoweredSubsystem message table
@0x50F4EC (ids 4-8) registered and implemented -- SelectGeneratorA-D
(@004b099c..@004b0a74: FindGeneratorByNumber roster walk on generatorNumber
@0x1E0 -> AttachToVoltageSource re-tap with tap accounting -> modeAlarm
Connected) and ToggleGeneratorMode (@004b0abc: Manual -> Auto -> detach+Manual
cycle). Weapons inherit via the MechWeapon handler chain. Desktop: F5-F8
assign the selected weapon (BT_CONFIG_SLOT) to Generator A-D, F9 toggles
reconnect mode; BT_GENSEL_TEST scripts a headless verify.
Verified live end-to-end: dispatch -> handler -> re-tap ("PPC_1 ->
GeneratorD (tapped)") -> the charging I^2R physically moved (GenD cold ~90K
baseline -> ~1570K carrying the PPC; GenA relieved), stable over a sustained
autofire soak with thermal-breaker trips.
FOUR defects found and fixed on the way [all T1/T2]:
- THE e17 HEAT EXPLOSION: Generator::SourceLevel misread *(this[0x38]+0x158)
as linkedSinks->heatEnergy; it is the engine-base DamageZone @0xE0 ->
damageLevel [0..1] (the same named-member pattern as the bank radiator's
zone read). A breaker-restarting generator emitted (1 - 4e8) x 10000
volts; squared through the customers' I^2R feed, one restart blew the
whole thermal network to e17. Authentic: a damaged generator yields
proportionally less voltage.
- FUN_004ac9c8 is NOT "IsDamaged": raw body = owner -> mech+0x190 player ->
roleClassIndex(+0x274) == 0 -- the ROOKIE-role lockout for advanced
cockpit systems. New bridge BTPlayerRoleLocksAdvanced (NULL player =
unlocked [T3]; bring-up role 2 = unlocked). The old stand-in gated the
handlers off permanently (healthy subsystems have simulationState==1).
- MESSAGE_ENTRY tables must be FUNCTION-LOCAL statics inside the accessor:
as namespace-scope arrays they are read by other TUs' static-init chains
before their own initializers run -- Build copies zeros and every id in
the table is silently dropped (ids 9/10 only worked by TU-order luck;
both tables relocated; gotcha recorded, reconstruction-gotchas #9).
- The AutoConnect hunt scanned GetSegment() -- the raw @004b0bd0 walks the
subsystem ROSTER (+0x124/+0x128); EntitySegments were being cast to
Subsystems (the classic +0x128 gotcha).
Also: the dense handler table's GAP slots (skipped ids) are uninitialized
heap -- the name-based Find strcmp-walks them and AVs; diagnostic probes use
the id-based Find only (the 1995 binary's own tables carry the same holes).

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.

Cockpit: authentic eyepoint + canopy lattice render (task #55)
The first-person cockpit now shows by default and matches gameplay footage (verified on the Madcat). Two decomp-verified reconstructions: EYEPOINT (FUN_004579a8 + caller part_014.c:5525, FUN_004c22c4): - eye offset = siteeyepoint GetBaseOffset (not GetSegmentToEntity, not the upright hack), parented on the PARENT segment DCS (btl4vid.cpp) - live view = affine INVERSE of the eye world matrix (L4VIDRND Execute) -- replaces the hand-rolled LookAtRH whose +Z-forward/+Y-up row guess aimed some mechs into the canopy; combine order fixed to baseOffset * R - chase camera basis + aim boresight re-expressed for the inverse convention (row2 = back); boresight now derives from the view matrix (the stale rows aimed the pick ray at the sky = no target, no discharge) CANOPY (*_COP.BGF, dpl_Punchize geogroups): - every shell is an open strut lattice (38-59% boundary edges, all 12 mechs); rendered single-sided with per-face INWARD winding (l/r torso patches are mirrored, so no global winding works) the struts are the dark frame and the openings show the world - frame colour = the 'softer' ramp near its dark end (texture-less unlit ramp; BLXSKIN.BMF has no texture -- the old "punch texels" theory was wrong) - scoped by filename (meshIsCop); wrong drop-punch + view-cut paths removed - BT_FORCE_MODEL=<name> forces the player mech for per-mech bring-up KB: new context/cockpit-view.md topic; punch split corrected in bgf-format; gotchas 14 (LookAt axis guess) + 15 (per-patch edge namespaces); env gates + eye/punch addresses in decomp-reference.

Warp: restore the translocation-vortex look + fix texture-scroll precision collapse (task #52)
The death/respawn "blue whirlwind" (tsphere) now matches the original cabinet
photo (capture.png): a smooth spinning lavender vortex with a bright core.
Root cause of the long-standing "radial spokes" artifact was NOT the warp code
but a general engine bug: L4D3D::SetTextureScrolling computed its texture-matrix
offset as scrollDelta * absolute_time, which grows unbounded and collapses UV
float precision -> a smooth scrolled cloud shatters into grainy radial steps.
Wrapped with fmodf(..., 1.0f) (identical under REPEAT tiling, full precision).
This also cleans the scrolling bexp beam grit and any other SCROLL material.
Visual reconstruction (verified against the real 45-vtx TSPHERE.BGF bicone,
offline-rasterized then ported):
- view ON-AXIS (eye centred on the throat) + spin in place -> concentric rings
(decomp FUN_00453dc4 does spin-about-local-Z + submit; the port had stubbed it)
- bintA cloud through a WIDE lavender ramp at full contrast (drawn as SKY);
no geometry "bands", no log-polar twist, no off-axis tornado (all discarded)
- tessellate the 12-facet bicone smooth; isotropic + trilinear; ramp baked into
the texture and drawn SELECTARG1(TEXTURE) to avoid double-tinting
Env knobs (BT_WARP_*) default to the verified values; BT_WARP_SELFTEST/SELFSHOT
are an off-by-default visual-verification harness (backbuffer frame dump).
Docs: new context/translocation-warp.md (geometry/material/visual/lifecycle/env);
reconstruction-gotchas.md gains the accumulated-time precision-collapse bug class;
rendering.md / multiplayer.md / decomp-reference.md / CLAUDE.md cross-linked.

Whirlwind respawn: authentic death->drop-zone->recreate cycle (task #52)
Death transition (mech4) now dispatches VehicleDead(-1) to the owning player; BTPlayer::VehicleDeadMessageHandler restructured to the authentic @004c05c4 three-way branch: -1 = death bookkeeping + sever playerVehicle (wreck stays) + 5s re-post; >=0 = engine drop-zone hunt -> DropZoneReply -> CreatePlayerVehicle (new mech); -2 = the acquire probe. Guarded on a DropZones group so a zone-less mission stays dead instead of aborting. Three latent bugs the respawn path exposed, all fixed: - IsMechDestroyed latched on graphicAlarm>=9 alone; a later leg hit on the wreck rewrites the alarm to 4/3, un-latching -> the death transition re-ran (double kill/score, abort). Now latches on movementMode 2||9. - Score handlers dereferenced the severed playerVehicle during the dead window; guarded. - The console score flush routed a NetworkClient::Message through the player's Entity::Dispatch, which stamps entityID past the smaller struct -> /RTC1 stack overflow. Sent via application->SendMessage instead. - Renderer LoadMission re-entry (per viewpoint-make) re-read the env INI; its light block Fail'd on stale sceneLightCount. Reset it in DPLReadEnvironment so the respawn's second read is clean. Verified 2-node self-drive: B killed repeatedly by A respawns each time (wreck stays), ticks + reloads + takes fresh damage on the new mech, no abort/hang across multiple death->respawn cycles.

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.

MP task #47 SOLVED: cross-pod damage + kill (validate the master mech)
Full cross-pod KILL now works: instance A (host 2) shoots B's mech (host 3) dead over the network; B runs the death transition on its own screen. Verified on a 2-node one-box run (BT_MP_FORCE_DMG on A): B's mech takes ~36 remote hits of 12 and is DESTROYED, with wreck swap + explosion. ROOT CAUSE (one bug): B's own MASTER mech was INVALID. Entity::Receive(Event*) does `if(!IsValid()) event->Defer()` -- so a cross-pod-delivered TakeDamage that arrived, resolved to B's real mech, and Posted, was DEFERRED forever; the handler never ran. The reconstructed Mech::Make force-set ValidFlag only for replicants (the P6 bring-up hack for the partial MakeReady handshake); a locally-created master never got validated. FIX (one line): Mech::Make now sets ValidFlag for the master too -- the reconstructed ctor builds the mech synchronously, so it's safe. Nothing else changed: targeting, the virtual victim->Dispatch, the replicant reroute, the wire, receive, and id resolution were ALL already correct. Two prior root causes were BOTH mis-diagnoses from the WRONG messageID: Entity::TakeDamageMessageID is 18, not 21. Every earlier probe filtered msgID==21, never matched a real TakeDamage, and mis-correlated the stray 21 hits' 3:19 / classID-48 against the real 3:22 hit -- inventing (a) a "cross-TU Entity layout divergence" (disproven: offsetof identical in both TUs, sizeof 444, entityID@0x17C) and (b) a "localID corrupted on the wire". Both FALSE; the id is correct end-to-end (3:22 = B's master). - game/reconstructed/mech.cpp: validate master + replicant at Make. - game/reconstructed/mech4.cpp: BT_MP_FORCE_DMG cleaned to a concise gated 2-node cross-pod reproducer (real virtual Dispatch path). - context/multiplayer.md, reconstruction-gotchas.md: corrected root cause + the validity-defers-cross-pod gotcha. Engine diagnostics reverted to clean. Solo un-regressed (the solo enemy was already force-valid; the change only ADDS ValidFlag). btl4.exe builds; full mission loop clean.

Combat visible + killable: Wword root-cause fix, .PFX effect layer, RemakeEntity swap
The 'can't kill the enemy / no visible damage' cluster, root-caused and fixed faithfully: - STEP-6 unaimed path was INERT: the cylinder table was 'cached' at Wword(0x111) -- the recon ABSORBER bank (stores nothing, reads 0) -- so every unaimed hit silently no-op'd. Promoted to the named member Mech::damageLookupTable (binary this[0x111], was mislabeled ammoExpended). New gotcha class recorded (reconstruction-gotchas §2) + sweep; 2 dead multiplayer branches logged. - Fire path migrated off the stale vital-zone aim onto the completed STEP-6 unaimed dispatch (zone=-1 + beam entry point -> cylinder resolves the exterior zone). No more invisible 1-shot kills; death via the authentic cascade (~14 center-mass hits). Wreck stays TARGETED on kill (beams stop on it); scoring latches off. - SendSubsystemDamage AV fixed: unbound critical-subsystem plug guard (43 unbound plugs/mech logged as an open question -- the binding itself is a gap). - RemakeEntity (render damage swap): the 1996 render state machine's missing Remake state, reconstructed as an in-place SetDrawObj mesh swap keyed by each segment's damage-zone graphic state (tree dtor doesn't cascade -> never rebuild). Destroyed arms/guns visibly wreck (the only variants the RES registers). - BT .PFX particle layer (L4VIDEO.cpp): the 1995 explosion/damage effect layer, unported since 2007 (DPLIndependantEffect/ReadPSFX/ExplosionScripts all stubs). Parses the authentic VIDEO/*.PFX definitions via the [pfx_day] psfxN mapping; premultiplied blending renders BOTH families from the same data (additive-style fire + occluding smoke -- DDAM2 is 30% grey, DDTHSMK ramps negative: impossible additively); depth-sorted billboards with a radial-masked grit sprite; impact-frame orientation (.PFX offsets are authored mech-local, -Z = out of the struck armor toward the shooter) for weapon hits AND damage bands (via lastInflictingID, now maintained -- was declared but never written). Both effect-number encodings route (raw dpl <100 + WinTesla 1000+slot carried by the band resources). Death fires the authentic dnboom (7) + ddthsmk smoke plume (1). - Effects anchor at the impact point / damaged zone's segment, not the mech origin (no more fire at the feet). - Dev force-input gates BT_AUTOFIRE / BT_AUTODRIVE for headless fire-chain verification; BT_PFX_ADD=1 flips the particle blend for A/B.

context-system: bootstrap the progressive-context expert knowledge base (foundation)
Adapt the spark-lesson / expert-seed.md progressive-context pattern to the bt411 port:
a thin router + context/*.md knowledge graph so the 2236-line CLAUDE.md's deep knowledge
loads on-demand instead of every session.
NON-DESTRUCTIVE foundation pass (live CLAUDE.md unchanged; proposed router is a draft):
- reference/glossary.yaml -- ~45 terms (engine/formats/scene/reconstruction)
- context/decomp-reference.md -- the quantitative hub: resource types, ClassID map,
mech offsets, damage delivery, weapon constants, env gates, tools
- context/reconstruction-gotchas.md -- the 12 systemic bug classes (conventions/DO-NOT hub)
- context/bgf-format.md -- geometry format + CONN/PCONN + LOD-sqrt3 + ramp shading
- context/gauges-hud.md -- the gauge/MFD system (the just-completed wave)
- context/open-questions.md -- deferred systems + get-from-Nick
- context/_ROUTER-DRAFT.md -- the proposed slim CLAUDE.md (identity, protocols,
quick-lookup, evidence tiers T0-T4, conventions, structure)
- phases/phase-01-context-restructure.md -- design + migration plan + status
docs/*.md ledgers stay as the DETAILED logs; context/*.md are the curated digests that
route into them. Remaining: ~10 topic files (project-overview, subsystems, combat-damage,
rendering, locomotion, wintesla-port, build-and-run, ...) then the CLAUDE.md swap.
