# ✅ The debriefing and pilot-record screens — `STAGE_RESULT`, `OVERVIEW`, `EX_OVERVIEW`

- **Where:** `tables.pak` (the menu config pak), records `STAGE_RESULT`, `OVERVIEW`,
  `EX_OVERVIEW`; key lists compiled into the executable at `sub_822814D8` and
  `sub_8227A3A0` (found by the base-solver, [[player-tuning-tables]]).
- **Related:** [[mission-scoring]] owns the *rules* (`Score_*` in the stage
  settings); this is the *readout*. [[savegame-format]] documents the same
  compiled-key-list shape for the LOAD/SAVE screen.

## The shape was already known — for other screens

[[savegame-format]] establishes it: *"the LOAD/SAVE screen's config key list is
compiled into the executable, as a pointer array of key strings — the same shape
as the Arsenal's (whose keys sit a few hundred bytes earlier and match the pak
record exactly)"*, run starting `0x820A0074`. **`sub_82286BC8`'s 18-name block is
exactly that list** — 17 of its 18 are a `tables.pak` field or record name, so it
is the documented save-screen list and nothing new. Its lone residual is
**`PLAYER_AMMO_LESS_10`**, which is not a `tables.pak` name at all.

## ✅ Two more screens, and the key lists match their records exactly

| block | names | all present in `tables.pak`? |
|---|---:|---|
| `sub_822814D8` | 24 | **24 / 24** |
| `sub_8227A3A0` | 21 | **21 / 21** |

And the arithmetic closes against the records themselves:

* **`sub_822814D8` = the debriefing screen.** 24 names = 2 screen ids
  (`STAGE_RESULT`, `EX_STAGE_RESULT`) + **21 `stage_*` fields** + one sound cue
  (`SE_BOSS_CORE_CHARGE`). The `tables.pak` record `STAGE_RESULT` has **exactly
  21 fields** (2 objects, both 21).
* **`sub_8227A3A0` = the pilot record / career screen.** 21 names = 5 screen ids
  (`LAST_RESULT`, `EX_BASE`, `EX_MAIN`, `EX_OVERVIEW`, `OVERVIEW`) + **7
  `ex_overview_*`** + **9 `overview_*`**. The records `EX_OVERVIEW` and
  `OVERVIEW` have **exactly 7 and 9 fields** (2 objects each).

`2+21+1 = 24` and `5+7+9 = 21`, with 21/7/9 measured independently off the pak.

### The debriefing readout, in full

```
stage_num_shoot_down_aircrafts   stage_points_shoot_down_aircrafts
stage_num_shoot_down_ships       stage_points_shoot_down_ships
                                 stage_points_shoot_down_others
stage_weight_shoot_down
stage_num_main_objectives        stage_points_main_objectives
stage_num_sub_objectives         stage_points_sub_objectives
stage_clear_time                 stage_points_clear_time
stage_shoot_down_ratio           stage_points_shoot_down_ratio
stage_damages_friendly_ships     stage_points_damages_friendly_ships
stage_damages_wingman            stage_points_damages_wingman
                                 stage_points_friendly_fire
stage_total_points               stage_rank
```

🔑 **Nine `num`/`points` pairs plus three points-only lines** — the screen shows
a raw count *and* its score contribution for kills by class, objectives, time,
ratio and both damage categories; `friendly_fire`, `shoot_down_others` and
`weight` have no counter column. That is the same partition
[[mission-scoring]] measures on the settings side.

### The career readout

`overview_points`, `_total_play_time`, `_clear_stages`, `_retry_times`,
`_shoot_down_aircrafts`, `_shoot_down_ships`, `_shoot_down_weight` — seven, and
`OVERVIEW` adds **`overview_rank`** and **`overview_medals`**. The `EX_` twin has
the seven and neither of the two, which is what makes `EX_` the reduced variant
rather than a different screen.

🟡 Not settled: what `EX_` means (a second profile? the online/leaderboard
variant?) — **but see
[stage-numbering-and-player-craft](stage-numbering-and-player-craft.md):
`_EXn` on an asset name is measured to mean "the n-th challenge mission", which
makes "`EX_` = the challenge-mission debriefing" a consistent reading of why
this twin drops `overview_rank` and `overview_medals`. Not adopted — the
selection has not been shown** — `EX_BASE`, `EX_MAIN`, `EX_STAGE_RESULT` and `EX_FONT` are keys with
**no record of that name**, so the prefix is a screen-id convention, not a table.
And `PLAYER_AMMO_LESS_10` is unexplained.

**Reproduce:** parse `tables.pak` with `tools/re-capture/unitgroup.py` and count
the fields of the three records; take the key lists from the `sub_822814D8` /
`sub_8227A3A0` / `sub_82286BC8` sections of [`../data/name-block-bases.txt`](../data/name-block-bases.txt).

## ✅ The `EX_` selection, shown at last — a mode word tested against 3

The section above left this open: "**the selection has not been shown**". It is
shown now. Both screens that reference `EX_` names carry the *same five-instruction
idiom* immediately before the choice — `sub_822814D8` at `0x822815b4` and
`sub_8227A3A0` at `0x8227a408`:

```asm
lwz    r11, 4(rX)          ; the owning object
lwz    r11, 184(r11)       ; a mode word at +184
addi   r11, r11, -3
cntlzw r11, r11
rlwinm r11, r11, 27, 31, 31 ; r11 = 1  iff  [+184] == 3
cmpli  cr6, 0, r11, 0x0
bc     12, 4*cr6+eq, <plain>  ; not 3  -> STAGE_RESULT / OVERVIEW
                              ; else   -> EX_STAGE_RESULT / EX_OVERVIEW
```

`cntlzw` of zero is 32; rotating left 27 lifts bit 5 into bit 31, so the sequence
is a branchless **"equals 3"** test. The equal-to-zero branch takes the *plain*
name, so **`EX_` is chosen exactly when the word is 3**.

A small partition over the three key-list loaders the corpus already names:

| | loads `+184` | does not |
|---|---|---|
| **references `EX_` names** | **2** | 0 |
| **does not** | 0 | **1** |

`sub_822814D8` and `sub_8227A3A0` both load it; `sub_82286BC8`, which references
no `EX_` name, has no `+184` access at all. Both off-diagonal cells are empty.

### 🔑 3 is the game's own `EXTRA` — and that is *not* `CHALLENGE`

[[challenge-mission-gate]] already established the vocabulary for this constant
at a three-way switch: `== 3` → **`EXTRA`**, `== 5 or 6` → **`CHALLENGE`**,
otherwise `FILE`. So the prefix reads literally: **`EX_` is the `EXTRA` variant**.

⚠️ **This refines the tentative reading above rather than confirming it.** That
section proposed "`EX_` = the challenge-mission debriefing" by analogy with
`_EXn` on asset names. The measured constant is `EXTRA`, which in the game's own
three-way vocabulary is a *different* kind from `CHALLENGE` (5/6). `EX_` tracks
`EXTRA` specifically.

⚠️ **The boundary of what was measured:** the `EXTRA = 3` constant is established
at **`+144`** of the stage-loader class, while the word tested here is at
**`+184`** of `[object + 4]`. Same constant, same `EX`/`EXTRA` naming, two
different offsets in what may be two different objects — **that the two fields
are the same field is not shown**, only that both compare a mode word against 3.

## 🔴 Who writes `+184` — blocked, by two independent instrument failures

The next question after the selector is what *supplies* the mode. Two routes
were tried and both are measured to have no power here.

**The offset route has no power.** `stw …, 184(rN)` occurs **301 times** in the
image, `lwz` from `+184` **351 times**, and **115 functions touch both `+144`
and `+184`**. `+184` is an ordinary small offset shared by many unrelated
classes — the same shape that the corpus already recorded as failing three
times. Nothing here narrows to a writer.

**❌ The `xrefs` `ind_call` edges are a cross product — do not use them as
callers.** Asking for the callers of the two screens returns **633 sources for
each, and the two lists are identical**, which cannot be right. Measuring the
relation itself:

| | |
|---|---|
| `ind_call` rows | **1 827 297** |
| distinct targets | 1 710 |
| distinct sources | 6 992 |
| **targets with *exactly* 633 sources** | **236** |

236 different functions sharing the identical source count is the signature of
an unresolved-indirect-call cross product, not of a call graph. ⚠️ **Any reading
that treats an `ind_call` edge as "X calls Y" is void**, here and elsewhere in
the corpus.

⚠️ The control shows the *other* kinds are fine: `sub_82286BC8` has exactly
**one** caller, kind `call`. And both `EX_` screens have **zero** non-`ind_call`
edges — they are reached only through function pointers, which is why the direct
graph is empty for them.

### ✅ What did come out: both `EX_` screens are slot 1 of their own class

Scanning the 1 150 catalogued vtables' entries in the flat `.pe`:

| function | vtable | slot |
|---|---|---|
| `sub_822814D8` (debriefing) | `ANON_Class_271D5F25` | **1** |
| `sub_8227A3A0` (career) | `ANON_Class_CAA8AD62` | **1** |
| `sub_82286BC8` (save) | *in no catalogued vtable* | — |

So each `EX_`-selecting screen is a class whose **slot-1 virtual** is its
key-list builder, and the third — which selects nothing — is not a vtable method
at all. That is consistent with the 2 / 0 / 0 / 1 partition above arriving from a
structural difference rather than a coincidence.

🔴 **Still not settled: what writes `+184`.** Both the offset sweep and the call
graph are exhausted for it. A route with actual power would be the RTTI class
behind `ANON_Class_271D5F25` / `_CAA8AD62`, or a runtime watch on the field —
not another static offset search.
