claude-re 95ac545b2b docs/re: the game's own in-flight action list, off the disc ...

Decoded dat/GP_OPTIONS.pak (po_keys_btn* sprites): the OPTIONS key-config screen
lists every bindable in-flight action. Two of them change the plan.

'Change Target' exists — so target selection IS an input, and the earlier probe
that swept LB/X/B/A/LS/RS found nothing only because it watched the ammo
counters, which those actions do not touch.

'Padlock Mode Toggle' is a view/aim lock onto the selected target: the aim-dwell
problem solved by a game mechanic rather than by tuning a PD controller, and
presumably how a human holds a contact long enough to lock a missile.

Confirms our measured bindings (Use Nose Weapon = RB, Use Main Weapon = Y,
Accelerate/Decelerate = RT/LT, Radar Map Toggle = d-pad) and adds Special Move,
Maneuver, Resupply and Change Main Weapon (which would reach ASMissile, Power
5000). Also records that CONTROL SETTINGS carries a Control Type preset plus
yaw/pitch/roll sensitivity, so the mapping is not fixed and any stick
calibration is only valid for the save's current profile.

Tutorial menu (GP_TUTORIAL.pak) names the six lessons: BASIC CONTROLS,
HEADS-UP DISPLAY, RADAR, SUPPLY AND SPECIAL MOVES, RADIO ORDERS, ADVANCED
CONTROLS.
