Two threads had converged on needing one capture this container cannot
take, so this iteration records that and finishes something reachable.
BLOCKED, written into MISSION.md rather than worked around: Q1's keyframe
time association and the rest() rule for plateau-less elements both now
hinge on a running capture of GP_TITLE build 7, the Japanese title. The
console language is not settable here -- user_language appears only as
DECLARE_int32 at four call sites with no DEFINE anywhere in the tree, and
it is absent from the registered cvars in xenia-canary.config.toml. There
is no flag to pass, and guessing one is specifically unsafe: run-canary's
own header records that xenia calls ShowSimpleMessageBox from
ParseLaunchArguments before logging starts, so a bad flag blocks forever
with an empty log. Rebuilding canary to add the cvar would be improvising
around the blocker; it needs a human decision. Neither question blocks
the five menu screens.
FINISHED: the disc-wide top-level rotation count, left running four
iterations ago as a shell loop over `screen info --geometry` that never
completed (it decodes every texture per build). Walking the placement
region directly takes seconds.
top-level elements with a keyframe group 15 493
carrying a non-zero rotation 2 152 (13.89 %)
Both controls pass: GP_TITLE build 4 reports 0 (its rotations are the
nested ptloop records) and GP_DIALOG build 0 reports the expected two.
The control earned its place -- the first version indexed the pak with a
`screen list` BUILD number and got 0 for a screen that has two, because
GP_DIALOG build 0 is entry 2. GP_TITLE maps 1:1, which is how the
assumption survived. METHOD line added.
Two free corroborations of the rotation decode. The rotated population is
dominated by tactical-map ship icons -- pbb_destroyer 444, pbr_destroyer
402, pbr_fighter 276 -- i.e. markers rotated to heading, the single
largest use of the field on the disc. And GP_TITLE entry 7's Japanese
wordmark pieces settle from ALTERNATING tilts:
ptlogo3a r = 0, -14, -4, -1, 0, ...
ptlogo3b r = 0, +14, +4, +1, 0, ...
ptlogo3c r = 0, -14, -4, -1, 0, ...
Same magnitudes, opposite signs, all decaying to upright. A misread field
does not produce that.
