re: the rest of the stage-settings object -- cameras, player limits, difficulty
53 objects in GP_MAIN_GAME_E carry a Phase_1 record, in TWO families: 29 are the resource manifest the corpus already owns (Phase_N = 4 fields) and 24 are the settings table (Phase_N = 31-90 fields). That answers the 24-vs-28 puzzle left open by the scoring entry -- the 29 is a different table, not the settings. Camera: three chase rigs in metres, 13 of 14 fields identical in every stage -- Nose (0, 4.5, 7), Near (0, 10, 40), Far (0, 15, 80), FOV 0.92; only CameraFar varies, once. Player: BulletLimit 512 / HomingLimit 256 / LaserLimit 32 and the three 0.30 axis adjustments are constant, GravityFactor is non-zero in 4 of 24 stages, and IsBoss16Enable appears in exactly ONE object -- the first per-stage handle for a family whose filenames do not resolve. Difficulty_Easy/Normal/Hard is a SECOND difficulty record (8 damage and guidance multipliers), separate from Score_*. New doc structures/stage-settings-table.md; mission_scoring.py extended.

## ✅ 2026-08-27 — the rest of the stage-settings object: cameras, player limits, difficulty
|
||||
|
||||
Continues the scoring entry. New doc
|
||||
[`structures/stage-settings-table.md`](structures/stage-settings-table.md);
|
||||
`mission_scoring.py` extended; artefact `data/mission-scoring.txt` grows by the
|
||||
whole-object census. **Still twelve artefacts.**
|
||||
|
||||
**Docs checked first.** `isl-condition-builtins.md` owns `Camera`,
|
||||
`ControlTweak`, `Rendering` **as records in `GP_HANGAR_ARSENAL.pak`** — the
|
||||
game-wide defaults. **What it does not say** is that `Camera` recurs *per stage*
|
||||
in the `GP_MAIN_GAME_*` packs. `stage-definition-table.md` /
|
||||
`challenge-mission-gate.md` own `StageResource`; `stage-mission-tables.md` owns
|
||||
`LodResource`/`MotionResource`. `SplinterCell` and `Difficulty_*` are unowned.
|
||||
|
||||
⚠️ **Two families share the `Phase_1/2/3` record names.** 53 objects in
|
||||
`GP_MAIN_GAME_E.pak` contain a `Phase_1`: **29** are the resource manifest
|
||||
(`StageResource`/`LodResource`/`MotionResource`, `Phase_N` = 4 named fields) and
|
||||
**24** are the settings table (`Camera`/`Player`/`SplinterCell`/`Difficulty_*`/
|
||||
`Score_*`, `Phase_N` = 31–90 fields). Counting without partitioning would have
|
||||
merged them — *a record name is a file-local role*, again.
|
||||
|
||||
✅ **This answers the 24-vs-28 puzzle** left open last iteration: the settings
|
||||
family is 24; the **29** — matching `AUTO_SETTINGS`'s 1…29 tag range — is a
|
||||
different table.
|
||||
|
||||
✅ **`Camera`: three chase rigs, and 13 of 14 fields are identical in every
|
||||
stage.** Nose (0, 4.5, 7.0), Near (0, 10, 40), Far (0, 15, 80), all FOV 0.92;
|
||||
`CameraNear` 1.0, `CameraFar` 3 000 000.0 with a single stage at 500 000.0.
|
||||
World unit is 1 m, so these are metres — directly portable.
|
||||
|
||||
✅ **`Player`:** `BulletLimit` 512, `HomingLimit` 256, `LaserLimit` 32,
|
||||
`Pitch/Roll/YawAdjustment` 0.30, `AirDragFactor` 1.0 — all constant across 24.
|
||||
**`GravityFactor` is non-zero in 4 of 24 stages** (250/400/700), and
|
||||
**`IsBoss16Enable` appears in exactly ONE object**, which identifies it as stage
|
||||
16 — the first per-stage handle for a family whose filenames do not resolve.
|
||||
|
||||
✅ **`Difficulty_Easy/Normal/Hard` is a SECOND difficulty record**, 8 damage and
|
||||
guidance multipliers, separate from `Score_*`. So difficulty is expressed twice
|
||||
in one object: once for scoring, once for damage.

# The per-stage settings table — cameras, player limits, difficulty
|
||||
|
||||
**✅ Settled 2026-08-27** (static; regenerator
|
||||
`tools/re-capture/mission_scoring.py`, artefact
|
||||
[`data/mission-scoring.txt`](../data/mission-scoring.txt) — the same object the
|
||||
scoring block lives in, see [`mission-scoring.md`](mission-scoring.md)).
|
||||
|
||||
Loader: `sub_8230D1F8`, whose 122 field names identify it.
|
||||
|
||||
**Docs checked.** [`isl-condition-builtins.md`](isl-condition-builtins.md) owns
|
||||
`Camera`, `ControlTweak` and `Rendering` **as records in
|
||||
`GP_HANGAR_ARSENAL.pak`** — the game-wide defaults (`NoseCameraFOV 0.92`,
|
||||
`BloomScale 0.5`, …). **What it does not say** is that `Camera` recurs **per
|
||||
stage** in the `GP_MAIN_GAME_*` packs, or that the per-phase records carry the
|
||||
same rendering fields again. `stage-definition-table.md` /
|
||||
`challenge-mission-gate.md` own `StageResource`; `stage-mission-tables.md` owns
|
||||
`LodResource` / `MotionResource`. `SplinterCell` and `Difficulty_*` are owned by
|
||||
nothing.
|
||||
|
||||
## ⚠️ Two different families both use `Phase_1/2/3`
|
||||
|
||||
Searching `GP_MAIN_GAME_E.pak` for objects containing a `Phase_1` record finds
|
||||
**53**, in two shapes — a textbook case of *a record name being a file-local
|
||||
role*:
|
||||
|
||||
| objects | record names | `Phase_N` named fields |
|
||||
|---|---|---|
|
||||
| **29** | `StageResource`, `LodResource`, `MotionResource`, `Phase_1/2/3` | **4** |
|
||||
| **24** | `Camera`, `Player`, `SplinterCell`, `Difficulty_{Easy,Normal,Hard}`, `Score_{Easy,Normal,Hard}`, `Phase_1/2/3` | **31–90** |
|
||||
|
||||
The 29 are the **resource manifest** the corpus already owns. The 24 are the
|
||||
**settings** table this document describes. Counting `Phase_1` records without
|
||||
partitioning first would have merged them.
|
||||
|
||||
That also answers the count left open by `mission-scoring.md`: the settings
|
||||
family really is **24**, and the **29** — matching `AUTO_SETTINGS`'s tag range
|
||||
1…29 — is a *different* family. 23 of the 24 carry `SplinterCell`; one does not.
|
||||
|
||||
## `Camera` — three chase rigs, in metres
|
||||
|
||||
Present in 24/24. Thirteen of its fourteen fields are **identical in every
|
||||
stage**:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
NoseCamera Pos (0.0, 4.5, 7.0) FOV 0.92
|
||||
NearCamera Pos (0.0, 10.0, 40.0) FOV 0.92
|
||||
FarCamera Pos (0.0, 15.0, 80.0) FOV 0.92
|
||||
CameraNear 1.0 CameraFar 3000000.0 (one stage: 500000.0)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
World unit is 1 metre (corpus), so these are metres behind and above the ship,
|
||||
and the near/far planes are 1 m / 3000 km. Only `CameraFar` varies, and only once.
|
||||
|
||||
## `Player` — projectile pools and gravity
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
BulletLimit 512 HomingLimit 256 LaserLimit 32 (constant, 24/24)
|
||||
PitchAdjustment / RollAdjustment / YawAdjustment 0.30 (constant)
|
||||
AirDragFactor 1.0 (constant)
|
||||
GravityFactor 0.0 in 20 stages; 250.0, 400.0, 700.0 in three others
|
||||
IsBoss16Enable Yes — in exactly ONE object
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Two findings here. **`GravityFactor` is non-zero in 4 of 24 stages** — those
|
||||
missions pull the player. And **`IsBoss16Enable` appears in exactly one object**,
|
||||
which identifies that object as **stage 16**; it is the only per-stage handle
|
||||
found so far for a family whose filenames do not resolve.
|
||||
|
||||
## `Difficulty_Easy` / `_Normal` / `_Hard` — a second difficulty record
|
||||
|
||||
Eight fields, separate from the `Score_*` records: `DamageAdjustment`,
|
||||
`ShieldDamageAdjustment`, `FriendlyFireAdjustment`, `PlayerDamageAdjustment`,
|
||||
`PlayerShieldDamageAdjustment`, `PlayerMissileGuidanceAdjustment`,
|
||||
`AntiPlayerMissileGuidanceAdjustment`, `CollisionDamageRatio`. On `Normal`
|
||||
almost everything is `1.0`, with `CollisionDamageRatio 0.8` and
|
||||
`FriendlyFireAdjustment 0.5` (each with one stage that differs). So difficulty
|
||||
is expressed **twice** in the same object — once for *scoring*
|
||||
(`Score_{Easy,Normal,Hard}`) and once for *damage* (`Difficulty_*`).
|
||||
|
||||
## 🟡 Not settled

||||

post-processing, fog, DOF, unsharp mask, supply squadrons and movies,

||||
* Which object is which stage, beyond the single `IsBoss16Enable` hook.

||||
* `SplinterCell Count 5` — name and value only.
