tmpnam() on the Windows CRT returns a bare, CWD-relative name (e.g. \sb4c.2), and io.open on it fails with Permission denied when the game's working directory is not writable -- a Program Files (or otherwise protected) install. postLog then dies before curl runs: the mod reports a send failure and no bytes leave the machine (confirmed on a Windows install: "could not create request body: \sb4c.2: Permission denied").
Stage the request body under the OS temp contract instead: TEMP/TMP on Windows (always set, always per-user writable), TMPDIR with a /tmp fallback on POSIX. The transport stays on plain io/os -- no love.filesystem dependency.
Tests updated to mock os.getenv and assert the staged path sits under the temp dir; 10/10 checks pass.
The save editor now routes Gold vs RBY through a generation adapter so boxes, items, events, and maps write the right fields. The launcher layout is shuffled a bit, and patch notes can come from the updater, a packed file, or the iOS sidecar.
Regression coverage for the four Yellow Pallet Town fixes on this
branch:
- tests/parity_J.lua: the old-man-style demo bag shows x1 in Yellow
(SimulatedInputBattleItemList), not just the pre-existing x50
(pokered's OldManItemList) case.
- tests/engine/push_battle_transition.lua: Commands.pushBattle calls
ctx.overworld:pushBattle when available and falls back with a
logged warning otherwise. Logger.warn is spied (pcall-safe, always
restored) rather than read off the shared Logger.history ring
buffer, so the fallback checks don't leave noise behind for
whatever else runs in the same process.
- tests/parity_yellow_pallet_pikachu.lua: drives the real onStep
closure through the real StateStack/OverworldState, with no mocked
battle -- Red never plays Music_MuseumGuy for this escort (Blue
shares the same code path: onStep only branches on
GameVersion.isYellow(), never isBlue(), so a separate Blue run
would exercise nothing new), and Yellow's hold before the Pikachu
battle is armed for exactly 2 frames before handing off to
BattleTransition rather than a bare stack push. Stops there rather
than also driving the demo battle to completion just to assert
Music_MuseumGuy fires in Yellow (that fix's own coverage): the
extra coupling to unrelated battle menu/bag/throw frame budgets
wasn't worth it for one more assertion. That side stays manually
verified. scenario() restores Game/GameVersion and re-inits
StateStack on the way out.
All three pass standalone (luajit tests/<path>). The Yellow E2E test
hits the same pre-existing "Music.playMap is nil" gap three other
map-warping parity tests already hit inside the aggregated
tests/run_tests.lua run (missing data/generated/audio.lua in this dev
environment) -- confirmed by diffing the identical error text against
parity_warp_after_warp_step.lua, which also passes clean standalone.
