Finding REMAINING OB in RAM means getting to the escort stage, and
launch_mission.sh exists for exactly that. It carried three of the dead patterns
this session has been clearing: six vgamepad calls (the command no longer exists,
so the entire scripted route pressed nothing), the XUID E0300000EFBEA3D4 which
has no profile behind it and therefore opens the sign-in dialog that swallows
every keystroke, and the emulator's stdout going to /dev/null. wait_flight.sh had
a fourth, in the tap that skips the launch cinematic.
Fixed, the route works far past where it used to stop: boot -> title -> LOAD GAME
-> slot 01 -> READY ROOM -> TAKE OFF -> the Stage 02 briefing map, with ACROPOLIS
labelled on it.
And it stops there: 384 dumps at PC 0x82307128 and no flight HUD within 300s. The
briefing is still animating (two shots a minute apart differ by RMSE 2986), so
the emulator is not frozen - flight simply never starts.
One discriminator worth recording: the TUTORIAL reaches flight and has run
completely crash-free, while this path crashes during the briefing, which is
where the stage content loads. That is consistent with the cache-flush shape the
crash has always had, and points at WHAT is being loaded rather than at how far
the navigation gets.
REMAINING OB is therefore still not found - the mission was never entered.
