The per-page "DOSBox IPs (+100)" checkbox becomes a single machine-level
setting per game, edited in Settings > Change <game> Defaults (a "DOSBox
Build" row below Autotranslocate Delay) and persisted in the game's
defaults file (RPDefaults.rpd / BTDefaults.btd) as a top-level
DosBoxAddressShift element.
The game pages no longer carry the checkbox; each RPGame/BTGame reads the
stored default once at construction into a readonly field and applies it
when enabling a pod (MungaGame.DosBoxAddressShift) and when building the
mission egg (MissionAddress). Since it is read at construction, an
already-open game page keeps its shift until reopened -- consistent with
how every other game default behaves.
Verified against vPOD: enabling the DOSBox default drives a freshly
opened game page's pod connection to 127.0.0.101 and the egg to
pilot=127.0.0.101 with no per-page control; unchecking round-trips to
False in the defaults file. All 103 diff tests pass.

Completes the BattleTech console feature to parity with Red Planet:
- BTPrintDocument: the per-pilot landscape score sheet (mech portrait,
placing, kill/death/damage stats, randomized mission-highlights narrative,
pilot-vs-pilot damage matrix, place-over-time chart), mirroring
RPPrintDocument minus the football/lap/boost/score-zone concepts. Wired into
BTGame (Auto Print checkbox + Print Last Mission button) and the shell's File
menu (BT Mission Print Preview / Print BT Mission, loading .btm files).
- BTStrings(.xml): the BT mission-highlight narrative pools (damage tiers,
kill, death-without-honor, recap), loaded from BattleTech\BTStrings.xml like
RPStrings.
- BTDefaultsDialog: two-column (Free For All / No Return) editor for the BT
operator defaults, reachable from Settings (Change/Import/Export BattleTech
Defaults). Verified via UI Automation: opens with all 18 option combos
populated.
- Apps.xml: the BattleTech 4.11 product (btl4.exe on the shared RP411 engine,
same -net/-res/-lc/-mr command line; deploys to C:\Games\BT411) with Game
Client / Live Camera / Mission Review launch entries. CatalogTests updated to
4 products / 8 entries plus the three new BT entry assertions.
Role model spelling corrected to "noreturn": the Mac Console.ini tag and the
game's BTL4.RES role resource are dfltrole/NoReturn; the 4.10 console's eggs
emitted a broken "noretun" that cannot resolve against the RES. BTGoldenEggTests
and BTConfig.xml updated accordingly.
