* 🔴 **Not a live class head-count.** Counter 4 against 8 attackers / 7 friendly
Delta Sabers / 7 turrets / 1 player — no class matches, no pair sums to it.
* ❔ **11 candidate per-entity flag offsets** on a proper 161-entity sample
(2026-08-23, later) — still **never put to the second test**, and two of the
groups look wrong on inspection (seven consecutive floats shared by 12 of 32
attackers read like a shared AI parameter block; `+0x0238 = 4` is shared by
twelve *turrets*).
* 🔴 **The per-entity flag is REFUTED** (2026-08-23, final): sample A at counter
12 over 120 entities gave **2** candidates; the counter went **12 → 11** and
**neither survived**. Within ±0x400 of the position triple there is no 4-byte
word whose shared-value population tracks the counter. ❔ **Not** ruled out: a
single **bit** ORed into a word that also varies (the test needs an exact
shared value), anything outside that window, and anything on entities
`entities2` cannot see — it types by position *changing*, so stationary
objectives are invisible. A bit-level differential is the follow-on.
* 🔴 **The counter is not "hostiles left" either.** It held at `012` for fifteen
minutes of **live** flight while the ADAN population fell 132 → 93. That is
also why there is still no verification: no transition to filter on.

* ✅ **But it decrements when the player kills**: `12 → 11` with 411 `fire=1`
samples and `YOU KILLED WARPLANES 0003` on the HUD — the first decrement seen,
and the first run where the player's guns were part of the experiment.
* ✅ **`pilot.py` never fires — ROOT CAUSE FIXED** (2026-08-23):
`flight_probe.Pad` was writing to the **vgamepad FIFO**, dead since the uinput
pad was replaced by `--hid=file`, so every axis, trigger and button from every
