Captured a real mission egg delivered from the SheepShaver console to the
DOSBox pod on TCP 1501, no -egg bypass: 8x ReceiveEggFileMessage chunks,
7514 bytes, reassembled byte-perfect (declared notationFileLength=7514).
The egg is the operator's own mission (BattleTech / cavern / night /
freeforall, pilot "cyd", vehicle madcat). This closes the networking
workstream end to end.
- net-tools/decode_egg.py: reassemble an egg from a captured console->pod
TCP payload hex dump (skips interleaved StateQuery polls).
- net-tools/captured_cavern_mission.egg: the delivered egg.
- NET-NOTES.md: milestone writeup + the pod's mission-LOAD crash. The pod
faults loading the mission (page fault, wild ptr 0xFF008B5B, exception
000E at game 00FF:219D, NetNub Munga exit 14) -- a game-side bug in the
mission-load path, separate from networking. Leading suspect: RIO was
disabled for this run and the player vehicle/control setup derefs null.
