src/ui/SummaryMenu.lua:148 and src/ui/PartyMenu.lua:824 drew mon.status
(PSN/PAR/BRN/FRZ/SLP) as a bare literal, bypassing translation. Unlike
plain text, a mod translates status labels through the statuses content
registry (mod.content.statuses:patch(id, { label = value }), the same
registry src/battle/BattleState.lua:statusLabel already reads in battle.
Route both screens through the same lookup, extracted as
Status.hudLabelFor(statuses, id) and shared with BattleState:statusLabel
so the hudLabel-or-label fallback rule lives in one place, with the raw
status id kept as the fallback when no record overrides it.
Found along the way: Status.RECORDS' five vanilla entries duplicated
hudLabel = label ("FRZ", hudLabel = "FRZ", ...) for no functional
reason. Since hudLabelFor reads hudLabel before label, and
Registry:patch only overrides fields a mod actually passes, a
translation mod's label-only patch (the natural shape for a status
catalog carrying one string per id, with no separate hudLabel data to
patch) was silently shadowed by the untouched vanilla hudLabel -- the
translation was stored but never displayed, in or out of battle. This
affected BattleState:statusLabel too, before this change and
independently of it. Dropped the redundant hudLabel field from all
five vanilla records: it's declared optional in the schema, and
nothing in this codebase ever gives it a value different from label --
setting it here only recreated the shadowing trap for no observed
benefit. Left a comment above Status.RECORDS warning against
re-adding it.
- Auto-recover save slots: Scan saves/<version>/ on boot to re-index orphaned slot files if options.lua is reset or loses its slot registry.
- Fix Gen 2 field moves: Make PartyMenu field actions (Strength, Surf, Cut, Flash) generation-aware so they execute safely in Gold.
- Fortify platform stability: Guard native controller/hidapi init against Android 14 receiver exceptions and ensure safe Windows file replacement.
- Add unit test coverage for slot auto-recovery in save_editor_gen2_tests.lua.
The vanilla surf/strength flow closed the menu, showed the overworld,
then fired a solid-white blink on the empty map, and set the surfing
sprite while the player was still on land. pokered's
GBPalWhiteOutWithDelay3 runs while the text is still up, so the blink
reads as a text flash.
The blink now sits under the textbox on the stack (only the top state
updates, so it holds its frames until the text closes), and surfing
applies only when the step onto the water happens. Same reorder for
the party-menu STRENGTH texts. The parity surf tests now dismiss the
got-on text before asserting the mount, matching the new order.
