Fresh extract of the final TeslaPod410.zip (renderer bundled) to C:\Games,
configured via configure.ps1, launched end-to-end on the co-located rig --
user-verified working as expected.

render-bridge/freeze.ps1: PyInstaller onefile of live_bridge.py + Dave's
vrboard/vrview/vrview_gl (+glcontext collected for moderngl) -> dist\
renderer.exe (~33 MB). GL backend live-verified from a pure-dist launch
(no --root/--renderer overrides) on 2026-07-10. package.ps1 bundles the
frozen exe automatically when present; DEPLOYMENT-PLAN's renderer OPEN
item is resolved. Ignore the build-artifact dirs.

Retire the bundled-silent-installer requirement: postinstall now detects an
existing Npcap service and moves on, warns clearly when absent, and still
honors a bundled deploy\npcap.exe if one is shipped. package.ps1 no longer
flags the missing bundle as a warning.

configure.ps1: bay-IP pick now filters to Up physical adapters and fails
loudly on multiple candidates instead of coin-tossing by InterfaceMetric;
-BayIp forces the choice (and permits binding a virtual adapter on a dev
rig); -ConsoleIp sets WATTCP gateway/nameserver (default: the bay IP --
needs only to be a live on-subnet host, the console DIALS the pod);
-Root is validated up front.
DEPLOYMENT-PLAN: record the four first-smoke-test findings (2026-07-10,
end-to-end egg->mission achieved): SendToRxAdapters on the pod NIC, host
must not hold the game IP, NIC checksum offload silently kills co-located
console->pod IP (ARP works, TCP silent -- disable offload+LSO), and bt/rp
require sound + a packaged renderer (closes the renderer OPEN item: ship one).

- net-boot/loop_rp.bat: GO.BAT-style netnub loop for RP (mirror of loop.bat,
retargeted to rpl4opt). deploy/net_rp.conf.tmpl now calls it instead of the
single-shot netnub + DOS pause -- the deployable runs in a loop until the
supervisor kills DOSBox (per operator: no single-shot in the product).
- DLL closure resolved: dosbox-x.exe is a 182MB STATIC build -- import table is
only Windows system DLLs, delay-import table empty, libpng/SDL/zlib embedded.
Nothing to bundle; wpcap.dll comes from the Npcap install. package.ps1's "no
DLLs" case is now informational, and the plan/README note the static build.

Network-agnostic, air-gapped pod install for the two DOSBox titles (BT/RP 4.10),
fitting the existing TeslaConsole/TeslaLauncher pod-bay architecture.
emulator/DEPLOYMENT-PLAN.md
Full design: bridge on the one NIC (pods form a source-proven P2P TCP mesh, so
NAT/slirp is out); launcher keeps the bay IP, the DOSBox guest bridges at
bayIP+100 (egg/mesh/game endpoint); two-edit +100 convention (postinstall +
console DOSBox flag); static, air-gapped, <=32 pods.
emulator/pod-launch/ (C# net8 supervising entry-point)
Creates a Job Object (KILL_ON_JOB_CLOSE), launches DOSBox-X + the render bridge
into it and blocks -- kill this process and both die (kernel-enforced, even on
a hard TerminateProcess of a hung session; verified). Mode dispatch: bt/rp
wired (also serve camera + live mission-review via egg hostType); review +
diagnostics recognized but fail clean until their DOS launch args are known.
emulator/deploy/ (install side)
postinstall.bat (thin elevated wrapper) + configure.ps1 (NIC detect, realnic
bind as a contiguous letter-leading GUID fragment, game IP = bayIP+100, stable
MAC, render net_*.conf templates, stamp WATTCP.CFG my_ip) + tokenized conf
templates + package.ps1 (assemble the zip). Render/bind/stamp + packaging
verified against a scratch tree.
