Root cause of the broken MFD2 display: CMFD_Device::BeginScene() cleared
the right device back buffer at old sh_step==0, but with the stagger the
right device flip also fired in that same frame (new sh_step==1 = old
sh_step==0 after increment). The flip presented a just-cleared buffer
with only the grid, no channel data.
Fix: split BeginScene for mode 4 - left device (step 0) vs right device
(step 1). Add BeginSceneRight() called from WinMain at old sh_step==1.
The right device flip at new sh_step==1 (= old sh_step==0) now shows
channels 3-4 rendered at steps 5-6 of the previous cycle - correct.
Cycle for mode 4 with stagger:
old sh_step 0: radar+left BeginScene, no flip
new sh_step 1: flip right MFD (shows prev cycle channels 3-4)
old sh_step 1: right BeginScene (clear+grid)
old sh_step 2-4: channels 0-2 -> left device
old sh_step 5-6: channels 3-4 -> right device
new sh_step 0: flip radar+left MFD (shows prev cycle channels 0-2)
Incremental Release + Profile builds (0 errors) picking up the
CRIOMAIN.CPP UpdateThrottle change; rel.bin\MW4.exe and MW4pro.exe
deployed to MW4\. Build logs in build-env\build_pr4_*.log.

Removes the if(lT!=0) guard in UpdateThrottle that made an exact-zero
throttle reading keep the previous throttle value; adds a negative
clamp. Zero now falls into the deadzone branch -> ZERO_THROTTLE.

-tbaud <rate> (9600-921600) overrides the COM1 baud rate while keeping
old-RIO (type 0) protocol behavior unchanged; independent of -trio.
SetupComm buffers 2/2 -> 1024/1024 only when the override is active.
Rebuilt Release + Profile (0 errors), deployed rel.bin\MW4.exe to MW4\.
run-firestorm driver: game-start now takes optional extra args.

FS507D_20161015 release analysis wrap-up (drop itself is gitignored; art-review
folder kept local for review):
- Recovered the only assets our tree lacked: 13 hsh HUD/radar/mech bmps and the
two 5.07D lobby decals (decal_46/47.tga, extracted from release props.mw4 via
a ported gos_LZDecompress).
- ResourceImagePool.cpp: missing-texture placeholder is now LAB_ONLY (editor
keeps degraded mode); Release restores the original fatal STOP. Release +
Profile rebuilt, 0 errors.
Console script reconciled:
- ConLobby.script.new ("BattleTech Console V5.0.7Df", newest revision anywhere)
promoted to Content\ShellScripts\ConLobby.script; .new removed; stale loose
deploy copy removed. Verified in-game (console title shows V5.0.7Df).
- Corrected CLAUDE.md: the release never "renamed" the console to
ComputerPlayer.script -- the resource packer stores script contents under
alphabetically skewed entry names (runtime resolves the same pairing).
Packer quirks documented (stale entry carry-forward on incremental builds,
name/content skew in directory sweeps).
Mechlab bug fix (first FireStorm bug hunt):
- New-Mech dialog showed blank rows for Wolfhound/Zeus and crashed (KERNELBASE
read AV) when creating a Zeus. Root cause: newmech in chassis.script created
its Type droplist without setting $$m_listBoxSize$$, so capacity defaulted to
60 while 65 chassis were written in -- OOB script-array writes. Fixed by
sizing the list from $$m_chassisCount$$. Latent stock-MW4 bug armed when the
FireStorm roster passed 60 chassis. Verified: Zeus variant creates cleanly.
props.mw4 fully repacked (decals + promoted console + mechlab fix, junk
.new/.org entries gone); game deploy refreshed at MW4\. Gitignore: FS507D drop
and player-created MW4\Resource\Variants.
