Open questions

Each links to the finding that raised it. Promoted to backlog or closed by re-quartermaster.

  • Compiler archive mismatch — imports say MSVCR100/MSVCP100 (VS2010), but Ghidra applied windows_vs12_32 datatypes (closest available). Confirm the exact toolchain from the PE Rich header; decide which datatype archive best fits. (from 01-fingerprint)
  • Battle-load root cause — inferred as single-threaded engine + core-count-sensitive code; must be confirmed by a ForceSingleCore=0 vs =1 diff once the main loop is mapped. (from 00-strategy)
  • Save-editor struct coverage — community editors cover players/tech/systems; fleet/combat state coverage may be partial. Treat as strong hints, verify each field against real saves.
  • Lockstep determinism — @SYNC ERROR DETECTED: Frame %d indicates a deterministic lockstep sim. Big for reimplementation + old-vs-new differential (determinism makes equivalence checkable frame-by-frame). Confirm scope. (from strings-and-config)
  • Mods override mechanism — .gob = gobio::ZipFileSystem with a NativeFileSystem loose-file override; this is how ./Mods wins over archived files. Verify load order. (from strings-and-config)
