The recovered system: fire channels = LBE4ControlsManager buttonGroups (0x40/0x45/0x46/0x47); default groups = the per-mech type-6 controls-map resource in BTL4.RES, installed by the T0 CreateStreamedMappings the port already called -- it needed only the TriggerState attribute (id 0x13 PINNED to the binary value; fireImpulse@0x31C is the binary's TriggerState) and an input feed. Keyboard/harness now push press/release edges into the button groups; the gBT*Trigger bypasses, per-type keyboard split and 1,0 pulse hack are retired -- weapons sharing a button fire TOGETHER (madcat Trigger = 4 weapons). Myomers @4b9550/@4b95b8 misattribution corrected (they are MechWeapon ConfigureMappables/ChooseButton). Verified 2-node: kill through the authentic chain (12 hits vs ~36 pre-groups). Config-mode session (regrouping UI) = the remaining stage, KB-scoped. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

<h2>What was actually wrong</h2>
|
|
<div class="cause">
|
|
<h4>Texture-scroll precision collapse</h4>
|
|
<p>The swirl scrolls its cloud texture by <code>scrollDelta × time</code>, where
|
|
<code>time</code> is <em>absolute</em> runtime. That product grows without bound, so within
|
|
seconds the UV offset is large enough that adding it per-pixel destroys float precision —
|
|
the coordinates quantize into coarse steps and a smooth cloud shatters into grainy radial
|
|
spokes. Wrapping the offset with <code>fmodf(…, 1.0f)</code> is identical under
|
|
REPEAT tiling but keeps full precision.</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p style="color:var(--faint);font-size:13px;margin:0;">This same bug silently degraded every
|
|
scrolling texture — beams, exhaust — over a long session. The warp just made it
|
|
impossible to ignore.</p>
