Craft stats were the last parked Route-B target: the Hangar exposes only a
weight class, and in menus the flight-model object is not instantiated at all.
It is instantiated in-mission, so this reads it there.
The definition class is discovered rather than assumed (unit_discover.py):
scanning for pointers to the disc ID strings and tallying the word behind each
pointer site picks out vtable 0x820af844 -- one object per unit ID, name-record
pointer at +0x04, string at +0x10, exactly the Weapon shape. The neighbouring
class 0x820af030 is the spawned entity, not the definition; the two are told
apart by one-object-per-ID and by 14/14 objects being byte-identical across two
snapshots 12 minutes and one firefight apart.
22 fields bind with zero contradictions on >=3 distinct values. Beyond that,
the Maneuver sub-record turns out to be laid out in schema declaration order,
4 bytes per field, base 0x9c with a two-slot gap after AA_Roll_Min -- 29
independently solved anchors fit two exact bases with no conflicts. That rule
pins five fields NO unit table ever values (PitchDragFactor, RollDragFactor,
DragFactorThreshold, ArterBurner_Acc, DecPitchFactor); PitchDrag == RollDrag ==
the disc's YawDrag on 18/18 units corroborates the interpolation.
Angles are float32 radians at runtime and degrees on disc.
Coverage is 18 of 110 units: unlike weapons, unit definitions are instantiated
per stage, so it grows by visiting missions. The AI-behaviour tail of Maneuver
is explicitly NOT resolved and marked tentative in the CSV.
Captured from Xenia Canary (BASIC CONTROLS tutorial + Stage 02 from save 01).
Drove the retail game headless (Canary + lavapipe, vgamepad) to the Ready Room
Arsenal and read the Gallery-Mode DATA SHEET for every weapon the 5%-progress
save reveals.
Two UI->field mappings are CONFIRMED against weapons whose values ARE on disc:
Ammo Capacity == LoadingCount (9/9 exact matches)
Max. Lock Ons == TriggerShotCount (FALCON 9AM 12 == wep_02; BUZZARD 22 == wep_04)
That makes the panel an oracle for fields the disc leaves defaulted, and it is
shown for undeveloped weapons too, so no points need spending. Recovered
TriggerShotCount for wep_05 and wep_60 (both 4, on-disc absent), and bracketed
the defaulted Power / MaximumRange via the Range/Damage letter classes.
Ruled out first: the defaults are not in hidden/DefTables.pak (no WEAPON-schema
objects there) nor in the localized GP_MAIN_GAME_* duplicates.
Also adds the two analysis examples that produce the shopping list of defaulted
fields, the screenshot harness used to drive the menus, and the evidence PNGs.
