The P5 gate walk starts on a screen. This runs the whole objective instead, and
it is the only thing that would have found what it found:
xvfb-run -a godot --path port -- --boot --play \
--script=accept,down,down,down,down,accept,cancel,cancel --shots=/tmp/e2e
publisher wordmark -> developer logos -> ADV (151.9 s) -> title -> (A) -> main
menu -> navigate -> (A) -> EXTRAS -> (B) with focus restored to ptbtn05 -> (B)
-> title. 166.76 s, exit 0, nine frames. Shared as 1788003274-e68367e787d5.
THE PORT'S TITLE DOES NOT TELL THE PLAYER TO PRESS (A). The boot's last step is
`title` = GP_TITLE build 4, and build 4 has NO `PRESS (A) BUTTON` plate. P5 has
just made (A) the only way off that screen.
Not a guess about the art -- both states are captured off the running game and
differ by exactly that plate (live-title-build4-no-plate.png vs
live-title-press-a.png), and the plate is ALREADY EXPORTED as `press_start`,
build 2, sitting in export/screens/title/ unused by anything.
RECORDED, NOT FIXED, and the distinction is the point. This is P3's gate that
P5 exposed, and fixing it needs two things the port does not have:
* WHICH state an idle post-boot title shows -- build 4 alone, build 4 with the
plate over it, or build 4 THEN the plate after a delay -- is BEHAVIOURAL.
The game demonstrably has both states and nothing says which follows the
intro. The port has no oracle for a sequence; that is the Decoder's.
* showing it means DRAWING TWO BUILDS AT ONCE, which this port has never done
-- every mode loads exactly one screen. That is a change to ScreenView, not
a line in flow.json, and it is not being smuggled in under a navigation
milestone on the strength of "it looks more right".
Filed in BLOCKED.md. P5's gate is (A) into a submenu and (B) back; both work.
Two smaller things the same run found, both fixed:
* the boot step's `why` still said "nothing takes the title's place until P5
gives it somewhere to go". P5 has. Now says what is true: `--boot` STOPS on
the title (a boot that ends by fading to black looks like a crash) and
`--play` HANDS THE HELD TITLE OVER -- the stop is not a bug and the handover
is not another boot step.
* an empty focus printed as a line that trailed off, reading like a value had
gone missing rather than like there is none. The title is a screen with no
`buttons` that still takes (A), so it now prints
"(none -- this screen has no focusable item)".
Also confirmed: entering a submenu directly (`--menu=extras`) and pressing (B)
enters the parent at its AUTHORED initial focus, not a restored one. There is no
history to restore and MenuFlow.cancel only claims a restored focus when the
stack agrees about where it is going.
