The reconstruction modeled the binary's 0x54 AlarmIndicator (FUN_0041b9ec) with undersized
stand-ins (AlarmIndicator==ReconAlarm==4B; HeatAlarm==8B) across the entire subsystem tree, so
every field above an alarm sat at the wrong compiled offset. Retype every such stand-in to
GaugeAlarm54(0x54) and de-phantom each class against its ctor, so the whole PoweredSubsystem
subtree becomes byte-exact. An 8-agent read-only decomp-mapping workflow decoded every ctor
first; then hands-on implementation. static_assert-locked chain (verified vs the raw ctors):
HeatSink 0x1D0
-> PoweredSubsystem 0x31C retype electricalStateAlarm@0x264 + modeAlarm@0x2B8 @004b0f74
-> MechWeapon 0x3F0 retype weaponAlarm@0x350; delete 5 phantom tail fields @004b99a8
-> Emitter 0x478 delete outputVoltage/beamLengthRatio/firingArmed aliases
+ beamHit*/beamColor/beamHitData/energyRampTime phantoms;
retype beamOrientation EulerAngles->Quaternion(16B) @004bb120
-> PPC 0x478 (no own fields) @004bb888
PoweredSubsystem -> Sensor 0x328 (no alarm; 3 own fields) @004b1d18
PoweredSubsystem -> Myomers 0x358 (no alarm) @004b8fec
New systemic bug-class instances fixed (added to the CLAUDE.md checklist):
* alias field - Emitter outputVoltage==inherited rechargeLevel@0x320; beamLengthRatio==
beamScale.z@0x434; firingArmed==inherited useConfiguredPip@0x3E0
* phantom field - MechWeapon segmentReference/pipSegment/hasTarget/targetPoint/muzzlePoint
(past 0x3F0); Emitter beamHitPoint/beamImpact/beamImpactScalar/beamColor/
beamHitData/energyRampTime (binary writes inherited damageData/voltageScale
or the value is a method local)
Non-layout fixes required in the same wave:
* outputVoltage->rechargeLevel also in the compiled GAUSS.CPP:74/93 (external readers of the
removed Emitter field -- must grep EVERY TU, not just the class's own .cpp)
* MechWeapon::GetMuzzlePoint reimplemented faithfully (removed muzzlePoint collided with
Emitter's own fields at 0x3F0) via a BTResolveWeaponMuzzle void* bridge in mech4.cpp,
resolving the weapon's mount segment (inherited this+0xdc) through the owner segment table
* DetachFromVoltageSource fixed to set electricalStateAlarm not modeAlarm (raw @004b0e30
writes the 0x264 alarm)
The vehicleSubSystems aux-screen gauge raw reads (btl4gau2.cpp:868/952 at subsystem+0x2b8/+0x278)
and the Sensor RadarPercent path now read the CORRECT byte offsets (garbage under the short layout).
Verified: combat DESTROYED-in-8, 28 shots, 0 crashes, heat heatEnergy=1.34e7, every static_assert
lock passes, heapcheck-clean through construction (the phase the isolated PoweredSubsystem retype
had overflowed). LESSON: a factory-bridge runtime Check(sizeof<=alloc) does NOT fail the build --
only a static_assert sizeof lock catches alloc overflow at compile time.
