Censused the 32 bundle-less in-game .prt names with the 68 as control:
4 of 32 appear as an element of some 2D bundle, against 58 of 68.
Being an element is normal for a part that exists; these are not
elements either. Last iteration's 'not adopted' reading is refuted.
28 names are neither a bundle nor an element.
They are not unreferenced: a HudResource record inside the 2D paks' own
IDXD entries names them -- the in-game screen config, parallel to
tables.pak for menus. GP_MAIN_GAME_E2D.pak has 6 IDXD entries; two
carry HudResource (24 named fields) beside ArmsStatus, Map, ArmsItem,
RangeFinder, Marker, Manuva, Number; two more carry the
ObjectiveMarker_*/TutorialMarker_* set.
Its values carry subdirectory prefixes -- Hitmark\, Lockon\ -- which my
hand-written prefix list never had. So I rebuilt the negative the right
way round: harvested every IDXD field value containing a backslash, kept
the 60 commonest directories, and re-swept. 241/376 with the hand list;
241 with hand + harvested -- zero new resolutions. After the language\
miss, this is the closure that counts: the prefix list came from the
disc, not from me.
Still open: whether the 28 are cut features or assembled at runtime from
sprites. Nothing static separates those two.

Read first: ui-rat-layout.md OWNS the RATC stack and already documents
the 60-byte element declaration table and 'one bundle = one
(context x language) build of that screen'. What it does not say is how
a part is addressed when it is NOT a pak entry.
The elements of one bundle share a common name prefix, and that prefix
is the part name. GP_MAIN_GAME_E2D.pak has 130 bundles with 114
distinct element prefixes -- pgmenu_btn00, pghud_wing, pgface,
pghud_range, pgmanuva_eff0 -- exactly the in-game part names.
The 100 in-game-only .prt names match a 2D bundle prefix 68 times; the
control, the 241 shipped parts, matches ZERO. The two families are
disjoint on the test. 13 shipped parts match a bundle prefix in their
own screen pak, which is the expected shape.
Four of the five mission banners land here: pgmsg_start.prt is E2D
bundle 0x89fac252, a one-element bundle declaring pgmsg_start_sub.rat;
likewise _end_, _failed_, _restart_. pgmsg_update has no bundle at all,
consistent with having no _sub.rat.
32 in-game names still have no 2D bundle. They cluster into families
whose base name is a bundle, reading as a variant declared inside a
parent bundle -- a reading, not adopted.

Censused the whole 135 unresolved set instead of chasing the five.
Cross-tab over all 376 .prt names: referenced by tables.pak AND
resolves 241; neither 100; referenced but absent 35; resolves WITHOUT
being referenced by tables.pak -- ZERO.
So resolving implies a tables.pak reference, 0 counterexamples of 376.
tables.pak holds the menu screen configs and every part it names ships
as <lang3>\<name>.prt. The 100 names that appear only inside the
GP_MAIN_GAME_*2D.pak bundles never ship as entries -- the in-flight HUD
is authored into the bundles, not loaded by name. The five pgmsg_*.prt
were never a special case; the split is menu = named + shipped,
in-game = embedded.
It is not a prefix rule: 6 of the 135 pg* names do resolve (pgloading,
pgloading2, pgmsg_scr, pgpause, pgpause_ttrl, pgpbase), because
tables.pak names them.
The 35-name residual is one coherent family -- pgmenu_btn*/item*/pad,
pgfacewin*, pgtextwin, phinfo1-3, 02d, 02d_scr, psview_release: the
in-game pause menu and squadron-order overlay, named by a menu config
but drawn from the in-game bundles. Consistent with the split, not
separately proved.

Read first, as the rule now requires: ui-prm-primitives.md,
ui-rat-layout.md, ui-screen-runtime.md -- they own the .prt/RATC/T8aD
stack but describe element names inside bundles, not where parts live.
A .prt IS a pak entry, under a LANGUAGE directory. Of 376 distinct
.prt names referenced on the disc, 241 resolve as archive entries --
220 under eng\ and jpn\, 38 under each of the other four. prbase.prt
resolves under all six; palogo1.prt under two.
All five pgmsg_*.prt resolve under nothing, across 15 prefixes that
include every language dir, so this is not the missing-prefix mistake
again.
A lead, refuted by its own control: four of the five have a same-stem
_sub.rat sub-bundle inside every per-language 2D pak, and pgmsg_update
has none -- but only 4 of 376 .prt stems have a _sub.rat, and
prbase.prt, which does ship as an entry, has none. Not the container
convention, not adopted.
An intermediate pass nearly reported 'the five appear only in the
manifest'; that was wrong because the token census was truncated by a
slice and the RATC hits were pgmsg_start_sub.rat, a longer token.
New artefact and regenerator; the other six regenerate byte-identical.
The previous commit announced message\MissionDialogMessage.tbl as a
find. structures/ixud-localised-text.md OWNS it and already says
S02_P1_OBJECTIVE and friends are record names in an IDXD map,
message\MissionDialogMessage.tbl, whose positional fields list the
lowercase per-line IXUD names -- and that *_GRAPH is the odd one, a
single named field holding a texture. I grepped the manifest doc and
not the text doc. Third overclaim in four days; the rule is now to grep
the doc that owns the DATA, not only the doc that owns the FILE.
Worse, the headline negative was wrong. MissionDialog_local_string.tbl
DOES resolve -- as language\MissionDialog_local_string.tbl, IXUD, in all
six GP_MAIN_GAME_* paks. My 33 prefixes omitted language\, which is
precisely the convention ixud-localised-text.md records for language
paks. A prefix sweep is only as good as its prefix list, and the list
should come from the corpus.
'LOSE has exactly one entry' was wrong too. Per kind: HINT_PAUSE 4,
HINT 3, LOSE 4, OBJECTIVE 4 positional fields, and GRAPH 1 NAMED field
holding the .t32. The single-field bucket was GRAPH, not LOSE.
What survives as new: the 11 non-MISSION field values read as a block;
the GP_TEST and TEXTS sibling records; the per-stage phase census; and
the five pgmsg_*.prt resolving nowhere under 34 prefixes x 41 archives,
now with two working controls in the same sweep.
Artefact 8 insertions / 3 deletions, every deleted line replaced by its
corrected form; the other five regenerate byte-identical.
structures/mission-script-ssb.md owns this manifest and names its 40
fields but never read the 11 that are not MISSION<n> = StageNN.ssb.
They are DIALOG_MESSAGE, DIALOG_LOCAL_STRING, FONT (+size), TEXT_POS,
TEXT_LINES and the five pgmsg_*.prt. Two sibling records were also
unread: GP_TEST (PATH = dat\GP_TEST\, a debug archive not on the disc)
and TEXTS (a second text style).
Probed 7 values x 33 prefixes x 41 archives. One resolves:
message\MissionDialogMessage.tbl, in all six GP_MAIN_GAME_* paks --
200 records, 25280 bytes, every name S<NN>_P<n>_<KIND> with five kinds
40 each (HINT_PAUSE, HINT, OBJECTIVE, GRAPH, LOSE), fields positional
and tagged 0..3, each value a message key. An index from (stage,
phase, kind) to the localised strings, on the same S<NN>_P<n> keying
the ISL corpus already uses.
Control: the 40 stage-phases span stages 1-16 and 24-29 -- a subset of
the 28 shipped, and the six with no hints are exactly 18-23, the
tutorials. A fifth independent route to the story/tutorial split, and
it gives the phase count per stage.
The other six do not resolve, with the control in the same sweep:
MissionDialog_local_string.tbl and all five pgmsg_*.prt are not a pak
entry under any of the 33 prefixes, while
message\MissionDialogMessage.tbl and Stage\script.tbl both resolve in
6 archives.
name_hash is CASE-INSENSITIVE (message\ == Message\); tag_hash is not.
New structure doc, artefact and regenerator; the other five artefacts
regenerate byte-identical.
