Three finds from one suffix table, closing the last mech2-family loader:
THE 'i' SET. The 4-char table at .data:0050d94d is the 3-char gait table
with an 'i' appended -- swri, wwri, ... squi, sqdi, trni. These are the
INTERIOR clips: the gait as seen from inside the cockpit, animating the
inside-view skeleton (they never bind the hip -- you cannot see your own
hip from the seat). LoadLocomotionClipsExt (@004a86c8) is byte-identical
to LoadLocomotionClips over that table, and is now its reconstructed twin.
THE VIEW DISPATCH (ctor tail @0x4a1674 region): a REPLICANT loads the
exterior set -- you see it from outside -- while the MASTER loads the
interior set. And the binary carries its own dev override: the L4VIEWEXT
env var forces the exterior set on a master for external-camera work.
Which is exactly what our render-bridge verification rigs need, so
pod_render_joints/limp.conf now set it -- the 1995 authors shipped the
switch our test harness wanted.
THE TAIL THE 5.3.93 LOADER MISSED: two more optional sets past the limp
probes. squ/sqd resolve into slots 3 and 2 with squatCapable -- the DUCK:
state 2 plays the squat-down, holds ducked at state 1, state 3 stands back
up (three state numbers the machines always handled but never had clips
for). And trn resolves into SLOT 4 with turnCapable -- which is WHY state
4 is turn-in-place. The slot map explains the state machine, again.
VERIFIED both paths live: L4VIEWEXT rig run measures the exterior set
bit-identically to 5.3.93 ('mad': standSpeed=5.23428 walkStride=18.5085
revStride=56.0462); the authentic default (master -> interior) measures
THE SAME CONSTANTS from the 'i' clips -- as it must, the mech covers the
same ground from either view, only the joint content differs -- proving
every madXXXi clip resolves. No fault on either run.
turnCapable is now real, which unblocks the turn-in-place dispatcher
(master perf) as the next locomotion piece.
