Merge pull request #615 from bryanthaboi/dev

After the player picks a starter and the rival takes his, every ball on
the lab table fell through to 'Those are POKé BALLs' instead of the
leftover-mon line.  Port the pokered OaksLabSelectedPokeBallScript ->
OaksLabLastMonScript beat: with EVENT_GOT_STARTER set, Oak turns to face
the player and reads 'That's PROF.OAK's last Pokémon!'.  The ROM's
'#MON' ligature is spelled out as Pokémon.

The renumbering also drops the table's nine out-of-range 'jump 21'
rows (run-time 'end' idioms) for explicit "end" targets, so the
script now validates cleanly.

Tests: T2 suite drives the ball talk table through a ScriptRunner-
compatible executor (leftover text, pre-escort text, pre-pick offer)
plus a T3 driver that talks to the leftover ball in a real game.

 COLORS, TILT, ZOOM, GBC FX, and VOID FILL are also in the Options menu
 and persist in `options.lua`.
 
+### Low-end devices
+
+**OPTIONS → PERFORMANCE** scales the port's optional extras for weaker
+hardware: **HIGH** (everything on), **BALANCED** (no 3D tilt or GBC FX),
+**LOW** (also no survey zoom, FPS capped), or **AUTO** — the default, which
+picks a tier from your device (ARM handhelds → LOW, phones → BALANCED,
+normal desktops → HIGH, unchanged). It only scales presentation; the
+fixed-step game logic is identical on every tier, and a lower tier hides
+your tilt/zoom/GBC-FX preferences without forgetting them. Details in
+[docs/new-features.md](docs/new-features.md#performance-tier-low-end-devices).
+
+### Rulesets
+
+**OPTIONS → RULESET** picks which set of Gen 1 battle behaviors to run.
+Both rulesets share the same damage formulas; they differ only in whether
+the original's quirks are kept. The setting persists in `options.lua`, and
+mods can register their own.
+
+`gen1_faithful` is the default and reproduces the original cartridge,
+famous bugs included:
+
+| Rule                        | Behavior                                              |
+| --------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------- |
+| `oneIn256Miss`              | A 100%-accurate move still misses on a roll of 255     |
+| `critUsesBaseSpeed`         | Crit rate reads base speed, not the current stat       |
+| `critIgnoresStages`         | Crit rate ignores stat stages                          |
+| `focusEnergyBug`            | FOCUS ENERGY quarters the crit rate instead of x4      |
+| `enemyUnlimitedPP`          | Enemies never spend PP, so they never Struggle         |
+| `hyperBeamSkipRechargeOnKO` | HYPER BEAM skips its recharge when the target faints   |
+| `randMin` / `randMax`       | Damage random factor 217-255                           |
+
+`modern_clean` keeps the formulas but removes the notorious quirks:
+
+| Rule                        | Behavior                                              |
+| --------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------- |
+| `oneIn256Miss`              | Off: a 100%-accurate move always hits                  |
+| `critUsesBaseSpeed`         | Unchanged: crit rate still reads base speed            |
+| `critIgnoresStages`         | Off: stat stages count toward the crit rate            |
+| `focusEnergyBug`            | Off: FOCUS ENERGY raises the crit rate as intended     |
+| `enemyUnlimitedPP`          | Off: enemies deplete PP and Struggle when empty        |
+| `hyperBeamSkipRechargeOnKO` | Off: HYPER BEAM always recharges, like Gen 2+          |
+| `randMin` / `randMax`       | Damage random factor 217-255, same as faithful         |

+## gen1recomp (RG34XXSP / Stock OS 64-bit MOD)
+
+Native LÖVE 11.5 port of gen1recomp for Anbernic RG34XXSP on
+**Stock OS 64-bit MOD** (H700, PortMaster).
+
+### Install
+
+1. Use **Stock OS 64-bit MOD** with PortMaster installed (TF1).
+2. Unzip so `Gen1recomp.sh` and the `gen1recomp/` folder sit in `roms/PORTS/`.
+3. Copy a legal US Pokemon Red or Blue `.gb` into `gen1recomp/lovegame/`.
+4. Refresh Ports / restart EmulationStation and launch **Gen1recomp**.
+
+### Controls (launcher)
+
+| Input | Action |
+|--|--|
+| D-pad / left stick | Move cursor |
+| A | Click |
+| L1 / R1 | Switch tabs |
+| Right stick | Scroll lists |
+| Start / Select | Play or Choose ROM |
+
+In-game controls use the normal PortMaster / SDL pad map (rebind under OPTIONS → CONTROLS).
+
+### Display options
+
+GBC FX is disabled on this device (the H700's Mali GPU compiles that present
+pass and then shows a black frame), so the OPTIONS row is hidden. COLORS,
+TILT, ZOOM, VOID FILL and MAX FPS all work. To try it anyway, launch with
+`POKEPORT_GBCFX=1`.
+
+### First run
+
+Stock OS has no zenity file picker. Put the `.gb` in `lovegame/`, then press
+**Choose ROM** — the game scans that folder. After import, the ROM-derived
+cache and saves stay beside the game (`portable.txt`).
+
+Canonical SHA-1 (1 MiB US carts only):

+# Anbernic RG34XXSP (Stock OS 64-bit MOD)
+
+Download `gen1recomp-*-rg34xxsp-stockos64-mod.zip` from
+[Releases](https://github.com/bryanthaboi/gen1recomp/releases). This build
+targets **Stock OS 64-bit MOD** on the RG34XXSP with PortMaster installed
+(TF1).
+
+## Install
+
+1. Unzip the release on your computer. You get `Gen1recomp.sh` and a
+   `gen1recomp/` folder.
+2. Copy **both** onto the SD card under **`Roms/PORTS/`** so the layout is:
+
+   ```
+   Roms/PORTS/Gen1recomp.sh
+   Roms/PORTS/gen1recomp/
+   ```
+
+   On the device that path is `/mnt/mmc/Roms/PORTS/`. Keep the launcher and
+   the `gen1recomp/` folder as siblings — do not nest the `.sh` inside the
+   folder.
+3. Put your legal US Red and/or Blue `.gb` files inside the game folder:
+
+   ```
+   Roms/PORTS/gen1recomp/lovegame/
+   ```
+
+   Example: `Roms/PORTS/gen1recomp/lovegame/Pokemon - Red Version.gb`
+4. Eject the card, boot the handheld, open **Ports → Gen1recomp**.
+5. On the launcher, move the cursor with the D-pad or left stick, press **A**
+   to click. Choose the Red or Blue tab, then **Choose ROM** — with no file
+   picker on stock OS, that scans `lovegame/` for the `.gb` you dropped in.
+
+The port ships with `portable.txt` already in place, so after import the
+saves and ROM-derived cache stay next to the game on the SD card. See
+[Portable Mode](../README.md#portable-mode) for what that means.
+
+Only the canonical 1 MiB US carts import:
+
+- Red: `ea9bcae617fdf159b045185467ae58b2e4a48b9a`
+- Blue: `d7037c83e1ae5b39bde3c30787637ba1d4c48ce2`
+
+## Launcher controls
+
+| Input              | Action             |
+| ------------------ | ------------------ |
+| D-pad / left stick | Move cursor        |
+| A                  | Click              |
+| L1 / R1            | Switch tabs        |
+| Right stick        | Scroll lists       |
+| Start / Select     | Play or Choose ROM |
+
+In-game controls use the normal PortMaster / SDL pad map, rebindable under
+**OPTIONS → CONTROLS**.
+
+## Notes
+
+**GBC FX is off on this device.** The launcher exports `POKEPORT_GBCFX=0`,
+which hides the GBC FX row from OPTIONS, pins the level to OFF, and clears a
+level carried over in an `options.lua` from another machine. The H700's Mali
+GPU is in the same class as the phone GPUs that compile that present pass and
+then show a black frame (issue #136), and `love.system.getOS()` reports
+`"Linux"` here, so the Android gate would not have caught it. Every other
+display option — COLORS, TILT, ZOOM, VOID FILL, MAX FPS — works normally. If
+your device turns out to handle the pass, launch with `POKEPORT_GBCFX=1` to
+put the row back.
+
+**PERFORMANCE defaults to LOW here.** The OPTIONS → PERFORMANCE tier defaults
+to AUTO, which reads this device as an ARM Linux handheld and resolves to
+**LOW**: the 3D tilt and survey zoom stay off and the frame rate is capped,
+so the overworld runs smoothly on the H700 out of the box. Bump it to
+BALANCED or HIGH from OPTIONS if you want the extras and your device keeps
+up; see [Performance tier](new-features.md#performance-tier-low-end-devices).
+
+The pack bundles the LÖVE 11.5 aarch64 runtime from
+[PortMaster](https://portmaster.games/), so the device does not need a
+separate `love_11.5` runtime download on first launch. The launcher resolves
+paths relative to its own directory rather than PortMaster's `$directory`,
+because stock Anbernic firmware runs ports out of `roms/PORTS/` with its own
+casing and mount points.
+
+If a launch fails, `Roms/PORTS/gen1recomp/log.txt` holds the output of the
+last run.
+
+## Building the port
+
+Release runs build this automatically (see `.github/workflows/release.yml`).
+To build it by hand:
+
+```sh
+./build-rg34xxsp.sh --version 0.1.0   # -> dist/rg34xxsp/gen1recomp-rg34xxsp-stockos64-mod.zip
+```
+
+`install-rg34xxsp.sh` copies that pack straight onto a mounted SD card for
+local testing.
+
+Stock OS 64-bit MOD comes from

-# Building a Blue Version of the port
-
-pokered builds Red and Blue from one source tree: the Makefile
-assembles everything twice with `rgbasm -D _RED` or `-D _BLUE`, and
-every in-game difference sits in an `IF DEF(_RED)` / `IF DEF(_BLUE)`
-block. Our extraction pipeline resolves those conditionals the same
-way (`tools/extract/util.py` `ASM_DEFINES`), so most of a Blue build
-falls out of re-running the extractors. Only three things are
-hand-ported on the Lua side and need swapping by hand.
-
-## What differs between Red and Blue
-
-| Where (pokered) | What |
-| --- | --- |
-| `data/wild/maps/*.asm` (34 files) | Version-exclusive encounters (Red: Ekans, Oddish, Growlithe, Mankey, Scyther, Electabuzz,  Blue: Sandshrew, Bellsprout, Vulpix, Meowth, Pinsir, Magmar) |
-| `data/pokemon/title_mons.asm` | The 16 title-screen Pokémon |
-| `engine/movie/title.asm` + `gfx/version.asm` | The "Red Version" / "Blue Version" ribbon |
-| `constants/player_constants.asm` | Preset names (Red: RED/ASH/JACK + BLUE/GARY/JOHN) |
-| `data/sgb/sgb_palettes.asm`, `sgb_border.asm` | Super Game Boy palettes and border |
-| `data/events/prizes.asm`, `prize_mon_levels.asm` | Game Corner prize mons, costs and levels |
-| `engine/movie/intro.asm`, `data/credits/credits_text.asm`, `engine/slots/slot_machine.asm`, `engine/battle/animations.asm`, `audio/sfx/save_3.asm` | Small gated tweaks (credits say "BLUE VERSION STAFF", etc.) |
-
-## Step 1,  flip the extraction define
-
-`tools/extract/util.py`:
-
-```python
-ASM_DEFINES = {"_RED"}   # -> {"_BLUE"}
-```
-
-Then regenerate everything (same as scripts/setup.sh does):
-
-```sh
-cd tools
-../.venv/bin/python3 build_data.py \
-    --pokered /Users/bryanbassett/Documents/development/pokered \
-    --out ../data/generated --assets ../assets/generated
-```
-
-This alone switches the wild encounters, preset names, SGB palettes
-and credits text. **Caveat:** `parse_preset_names` sanity-checks in
-`tools/extract/field.py:1193` expect "RED" in the player presets, 
-relax that check for a Blue build (Blue's presets are BLUE/GARY/JOHN
-for the player and RED/ASH/JACK for the rival).
-
-`tools/extract/palettes.py` uses its own raw reader with hardcoded
-`IF DEF(_BLUE)` skipping (around line 44),  invert that too, or port
-it to `read_asm` so `ASM_DEFINES` covers it.
-
-## Step 2,  title screen (hand-ported)
-
-`src/ui/TitleState.lua`:
-
-1. **Ribbon art.** The extractor writes
-   `assets/generated/title/red_version.png`; add `blue_version.png`
-   to `gfx.extract_title` in `tools/extract/gfx.py` (source:
-   `gfx/title/blue_version.png`, 64×8). In `TitleState:draw()`, the
-   Red strip needs two quads (tiles 0–1 "Red", skip, tiles 5–9
-   "Version",  `title.asm` `VersionOnTitleScreenText`). Blue's strip
-   prints its tiles contiguously (`db $61..$68`), so draw the whole
-   64×8 image at px (56, 64) and verify with the title driver
-   screenshot.
-
-2. **Title mons.** Replace `CYCLE_SPECIES` with Blue's list from
-   `data/pokemon/title_mons.asm`:
-
-   ```lua
-   local CYCLE_SPECIES = {
-     "SQUIRTLE", "CHARMANDER", "BULBASAUR", "MANKEY", "HITMONLEE",
-     "VULPIX", "CHANSEY", "AERODACTYL", "JOLTEON", "SNORLAX",
-     "GLOOM", "POLIWAG", "DODUO", "PORYGON", "GENGAR", "RAICHU",
-   }
-   ```
-
-## Step 3,  Game Corner prizes (hand-ported)
-
-`data/scripts/story3.lua` (~line 209) carries the Red prize tables.
-Blue's values (`prizes.asm` + `prize_mon_levels.asm`):
-
-| Prize | Cost | Level |
-| --- | --- | --- |
-| ABRA | 120 | 6 |
-| CLEFAIRY | 750 | 12 |
-| NIDORINO | 1200 | 17 |
-| PINSIR | 2500 | 20 |
-| DRATINI | 4600 | 24 |
-| PORYGON | 6500 | 18 |
-
-(TM prizes are identical in both versions.)
-
-## Step 4,  verify
-
-```sh
-luajit tests/run_tests.lua
-```
-
-Plus two spot checks:
-
-```sh
-# every grass table must have exactly 10 slots (a conditional-parsing
-# regression shows up as 19–20 slots)
-luajit -e 'local e=dofile("data/generated/encounters.lua")
-for m,d in pairs(e) do if type(d)=="table" and d.grass and #d.grass.slots>0
-  and #d.grass.slots~=10 then print("BAD",m,#d.grass.slots) end end'
-
-# a Blue exclusive should now appear (and Growlithe should not)
-grep -c VULPIX data/generated/encounters.lua
-grep -c GROWLITHE data/generated/encounters.lua
-```
-
-Title screenshot: run the driver in
-`tests/drivers/` style (`SHOT_DIR=... POKEPORT_DRIVER=... love .`) and
-eyeball the ribbon, title mon, and copyright row.
-
-## What you get for free / what to skip
-
-- Free after re-extraction: encounters (incl. Super Rod groups), SGB
-  palettes, preset names, credits text, the gated sfx/animation
-  tweaks.
-- Trades, gift Pokémon, story scripts, gym data: identical in Western
-  Red/Blue,  nothing to touch.
-- Save files: a Red save loads fine, but dex AREA nests and new
-  encounters will be Blue's. Trainer parties are identical.
-
-## Making it a runtime toggle instead
-
-If you want one build with both versions, extraction would need to
-emit both branches keyed by version (e.g. `slots` / `slotsBlue`) and
-the three hand-ported spots would read a `save.version` or
-`conf.lua` flag. That is a bigger change than the rebuild above, 
-the flip-and-regenerate route needs no engine changes at all.

+# Build & install on your iPhone — step by step
+
+Don't want to install Xcode? Download the release IPA and sideload it with
+AltStore instead — see [ios-sideload.md](ios-sideload.md).
+
+This guide assumes **zero** programming experience. Follow it top to
+bottom and you'll have the game running on your own iPhone in roughly an
+hour (most of it is waiting for downloads).
+
+## What you need
+
+- A **Mac** (any Apple-silicon or recent Intel Mac on macOS 14 or newer)
+- An **iPhone** and its **charging cable**
+- A free **Apple ID** (the same account you use for the App Store)
+- Your **own, legally obtained** Pokémon Red or Blue ROM file (a 1 MB
+  `.gb` file). This project ships no game data — the app rebuilds
+  everything from *your* cartridge dump and verifies it before use.
+- About **15 GB free disk space** (Xcode is enormous; the game itself is
+  tiny)
+
+> **Free vs. paid Apple account:** a free Apple ID works. The only catch:
+> apps signed with a free account stop launching after **7 days** — just
+> re-run the install command (step 5) to re-sign; your save data is kept.
+> A paid Apple Developer account ($99/yr) extends that to a year.
+
+---
+
+## Step 1 — Install Xcode (once)
+
+1. On the Mac, open the **App Store**, search **Xcode**, click **Get**.
+   It's a ~10 GB download — go make tea.
+2. Open Xcode once. Accept the license. If it offers to install extra
+   components or the **iOS platform**, say yes and let it finish.
+
+## Step 2 — Sign Xcode into your Apple ID (once)
+
+1. In Xcode's menu bar: **Xcode → Settings → Accounts**.
+2. Click the **+** in the bottom-left → **Apple Account** → sign in.
+3. Close the window. (This quietly creates the "signing certificate" the
+   build uses — you never have to touch it again.)
+
+## Step 3 — Get this project onto the Mac
+
+If you received it as a folder, put it somewhere easy like your home
+folder. If it's on GitHub, click the green **Code** button → **Download
+ZIP**, then double-click the zip to unpack it.
+
+## Step 4 — Build it (one command)
+
+1. Open the **Terminal** app (press ⌘-space, type `terminal`, press
+   return).
+2. Type `cd ` (c, d, space — don't press return yet), then **drag the
+   project folder** from Finder onto the Terminal window — it fills in
+   the path — and press **return**.
+3. Paste this and press return:
+
+   ```sh
+   scripts/build_ios.sh --fetch
+   ```
+
+   The first run downloads the LÖVE engine and compiles everything
+   (5–15 minutes). Lines of build output scrolling by is normal. You're
+   done when you see **`==> done`**.
+
+## Step 5 — Put it on your iPhone
+
+1. Plug the iPhone into the Mac with the cable. **Unlock it** and keep it
+   unlocked. If it asks **"Trust This Computer?" → Trust**.
+2. Paste this and press return:
+
+   ```sh
+   scripts/build_ios.sh --device --install
+   ```
+
+   The script finds your signing identity and your phone by itself. If it
+   complains, it tells you exactly what to fix (usually: the phone was
+   locked — unlock and re-run).
+
+3. First time only, the iPhone will want two approvals:
+   - **Developer Mode**: Settings → **Privacy & Security** → scroll to
+     **Developer Mode** → turn on → restart the phone → confirm.
+   - **Trust the developer**: Settings → **General** → **VPN & Device
+     Management** → tap the entry under *Developer App* → **Trust**.
+
+   Then re-run the command in step 5.2 if the install had failed.
+
+## Step 6 — Give it your ROM and play
+
+1. Get your `.gb` file onto the phone — AirDrop it to yourself, or save
+   it in iCloud Drive / Files.
+2. Open the app. On the **RED** tab, tap **Import ROM** and pick your
+   `.gb` file in the file browser that appears. (Alternative: in the
+   **Files** app, drop the `.gb` into **On My iPhone → the game's
+   folder** and just reopen the app — it imports automatically.)
+3. Import takes ~10 seconds, the button turns into **Play Red** — tap it.
+
+## Optional goodies
+
+- **Mods**: launcher → **MODS** tab → **Import mod .zip**.
+- **Save import/export**: buttons on each game's tab, using the normal
+  iOS file picker.
+
+## When things go wrong
+
+| Symptom | Fix |
+|---|---|
+| `xcodebuild not found` | Xcode isn't installed or wasn't opened once — do Step 1 |
+| `no Apple signing identity found` | Do Step 2, then re-run |
+| `no iPhone/iPad found` | Cable in? Phone unlocked? Tapped "Trust"? |
+| Install fails with "locked" | Unlock the phone, keep it unlocked, re-run |
+| App icon appears then won't open | Do the two approvals in Step 5.3 |
+| App stops launching after a week | Free-account 7-day limit — re-run Step 5.2 |
+| "That ROM could not be imported" | The file isn't a canonical 1 MB US Red/Blue dump — the importer checks its fingerprint |
+
+Every build/install command is safe to re-run; your saves live on the
+phone and survive reinstalls.

 narrow-safe, and content caps out at `~1440 * s` wide, centered.
+
+The desktop window has a floor of 480x360 (`conf.lua` `minwidth`/`minheight`),
+under which the cards stop being readable at all. Mobile ignores it: those
+windows are fullscreen.
+
+### Page scroll
+
+Two columns fit any window the launcher is likely to open in; one stacked
+column does not. On a phone-shaped window the ROM card, SAVE FILES, Play and
+SAVE SLOT together run past the bottom, and a footer pinned to the window
+bottom painted over them with the overflow unreachable.
+
+So the whole column under the tab bar -- panel, updater banner, footer --
+scrolls as one page whenever it is taller than the room below the tab bar:
+
+- The strip, logo and tab bar stay pinned, so navigation is always on screen.
+  Everything else draws at `contentTop - pageScroll` inside a scissor, and the
+  footer is laid out downward from `footerTop` right after the content instead
+  of upward from the window bottom.
+- `RomImporter.pageScrollFor(naturalH, viewportH, scroll)` is the whole
+  decision, pure and pinned by `tests/engine/launcher_page_scroll.lua`. A
+  window that grows back drags the offset down with it, so the page can never
+  stay parked past its own end.
+- The panels report their natural height as they draw (`_drawGamePanel` and
+  `_drawModsPanel` return it), so the decision reads the previous frame's
+  measurement -- the same one-frame settle the two lists already rely on.
+- **One scroll axis at a time.** While the page scrolls, the panels draw
+  `paged`: the slot and mod lists take their natural height, keep no inner
+  scroll region and report a max of 0, so the wheel, the right stick and a drag
+  all move the page and never fight a list for the same gesture. Two-column
+  layouts do not overflow, `paged` stays false, and every one of these behaves
+  exactly as it did before.
+- Hit testing follows the clip: `inside` (clicks) and `_ptIn` (hover) reject a
+  rect that scrolled out of the viewport, so a control that slid under the tab
+  bar cannot be clicked through it. Tab chips carry `pinned = true` and are
+  exempt. `pageScroll` resets on a tab change, each tab being a different
+  length.
+- A press on empty background pans the page, resolved in `_updateSlotDrag` like
+  every other drag here.
+
+### Dragging on Android
+
+The launcher is handed no move events on any platform: `main.lua` forwards
+neither `touchmoved` nor `mousemoved` while it is up, which is why every drag
+here is resolved by polling inside `draw` instead. Desktop polls the mouse;
+Android used to poll nothing at all ("no reliable pointer polling" meant its
+mouse emulation), so it had no scroll gesture whatsoever -- fine while every
+scroll region was an inner list with a wheel alternative, useless the moment
+the page itself became the thing that scrolls, since a phone is exactly where
+it overflows.
+
+`love.touch` is pollable, so `_pointerHold` reads the first active touch there
+and hands `_updateSlotDrag` the same (held, y) pair the mouse gives on desktop.
+Consequences:
+
+- Slot rows and mod toggles ARM on press and commit on release on Android too,
+  matching desktop, so a swipe that starts on a card scrolls instead of
+  selecting the row it started on.
+- `touchPollable` (set once in `new`) gates all of it. Where `love.touch` is
+  missing, every Android path is exactly what it was: act on press, never arm,
+  no drag.

+
+Tool mods that need to act once per game logic tick can wrap `input.step`.
+It runs immediately before queued button edges are promoted, so input added by
+the wrapper is visible during that same fixed step. The callback receives
+`(next, game, dt)` and must call `next(game, dt)`.
+
+`ui.title_menu.items` receives `(next, game, items)` and follows the same

+
+Ephemeral tools can wrap `save.write(next, game)` and return `false` to veto a
+progress write before world state is captured or any bytes reach disk.
+
+`render.hud` receives `(next, game, viewport)` after the finished game frame is
+composited and before touch controls draw. The window-space viewport contains
+`width`, `height`, `gameX`, `gameY`, `gameWidth`, `gameHeight`, `scale`, `dpiX`,
+and `dpiY`, so a tool can use the letterbox margins without drawing over the
+playfield or pushing an updating game state.
+
+`render.compose` wraps the whole-window composite in `Renderer:endFrame`. It
+receives `(next, renderer, ctx)`; returning `true` without calling `next` hands
+the mod full control of the window, while calling `next` runs the engine's
+normal single-window composite so the mod can decorate around it. `ctx` carries

+`worldActive`, the frame metrics (`ww`, `wh`, `pw`, `ph`, `ox`, `oy`, `vpw`,

+palette-correct blit of either canvas into an arbitrary screen rect, and the
+`secondScreen` bridge (`available()` / `push(imageData, w, h)` / `setEnabled`)

+## Save editor (bundled, reachable from the launcher)
+
+The save editor ships inside every build instead of being a developer-only
+script, and the launcher's SAVE SLOT card grows an **Edit** label next to
+Delete on every slot that actually holds a save. Edit suspends the
+launcher, opens that slot's file in the editor, and **Close** hands the

+confirm first, so leaving cannot lose work. `love . --editor` still opens
+it standalone, where Close quits instead; `--save <path>` points it at any
+file, and a save can be dragged onto the window.
+
+The editor now wears the launcher's visual language - the same navy radial
+field, 16px translucent cards, tri-colour version rail and green/yellow/red
+semantics - so the two windows read as one app. Six tabs:
+
+- **Party**: the roster with sprites, HP bars and level chips on the left,
+  and the mon inspector permanently docked on the right instead of floating
+  over the list. Species, level, DVs and moves all round-trip through the
+  Gen 1 formulas, so the inspector can never show illegal stats.
+- **Boxes**: the 12 PC boxes as a 5x4 grid with a fill meter per box and a
+  party dock, so deposit and withdraw live in one place. Empty slots are
+  clickable and create a mon there.
+- **Items**: money, a searchable item picker (replacing the arrows that
+  cycled one id at a time through ~250 items), the configurable bag (20 slots
+  by default), PC storage
+  with no slot cap, and the eight badges as toggle chips.
+- **Events**: flags, defeated trainers, taken items and per-map object
+  toggles, with a real filter field and a two-column paged grid.
+- **Map**: any map rendered with the game's own renderer, warps followable,
+  and the player / lastHeal / lastOutdoor spawn points settable by clicking
+  a cell. Setting lastOutdoor on a map the game would not accept as an
+  outdoor source is refused with the reason.
+- **Dex**: seen / owned completion meters and a four-column grid; owning
+  implies seen and un-seeing clears owned, exactly as the game requires.
+
+Two rules run through all of it. Every mutation goes through one funnel
+that sets the dirty flag and writes the status line together, so nothing
+changes silently and no branch can quietly no-op - "Party is full", "Bag is
+full", "click a cell first" all say so. And every destructive verb (Remove,
+Release, Clear all, Wipe dex) arms on the first click and commits on the
+second, relabelling itself to `Confirm?` in between.

+## Pokédex diploma (both versions)

+in the save directory, and Bill's PC gains Yellow's PRINT BOX item which
+exports the current box list the same way.
+
+## Pokédex printing (Yellow)
+
+Yellow's Game Boy Printer PRNT option in the Pokédex side menu is stood in
+for by an image export: choosing PRNT renders the mon's entry page (sprite,
+kind, number, height/weight, dex text) to a PNG at 4x scale under
+`prints/` in the save directory, then reports the filename in a dialog.
+No printer hardware or link cable emulation involved; the file is the
+printout.
+
+## Find Mods (community mod indexes)
+
+A FIND MODS tab sits beside MODS in the launcher and browses a published
+mod index: a metadata-only feed listing mods that live in their authors'
+own repositories. No index ships with the launcher and none is ever added
+automatically, so the tab opens on an "Add an index" prompt until you name
+one; paste an index URL or its `owner/repo` and it is remembered in
+`options.lua`. More than one index can be added, and the listings merge.
+
+## Soft reset (all versions)
+
+Holding A, B, START and SELECT together restarts the game the way flicking
+a Game Boy's power switch did, dropping straight back to the title screen.
+It works from anywhere, including mid-battle, which the QUIT entry on the
+start menu cannot do: the original combo is how stationary and gift
+Pokemon get their stats rerolled without sitting through a full relaunch.
+Unsaved progress is discarded, exactly as on hardware.
+
+As on the original, the four buttons have to stay held for 16 straight
+polls (better than a quarter of a second) and any direction in the mix
+cancels it, so it is hard to hit by accident -- including on the on-screen
+touch controls, where it would take four fingers held on four separate
+controls.
+
+## Controls rebinding (CONTROLS screen)
+
+OPTIONS -> CONTROLS lists every Game Boy button with its current keyboard
+key and controller button side by side (Z/A). Press A on a row, then press
+and release the key or pad button you want; the rebind commits on the
+release. If that input already belongs to another row, the two rows swap,
+so no button is ever stranded without an input and no input ever serves
+two buttons. Holding a second key or pad button while the first is still
+down backs out of the capture without touching a keyboard; Escape still
+cancels too. SELECT clears one row back to its default, and START resets
+every binding after a confirmation.

+# Tiled map editing (mod authoring)
+
+`tools/tiled_export.py` turns the imported ROM cache into a
+[Tiled](https://www.mapeditor.org) workspace, so maps can be edited in a
+real map editor and exported back out as a mod. The original had no map
+editor at all; the port's own map data is plain Lua, which is what makes
+this a data path rather than an asset path.
+
+Editing is done in our own Tiled build,
+[bryanthaboi/tiled_gen1recomp](https://github.com/bryanthaboi/tiled_gen1recomp/releases),
+which ships the `gen1-mod-export` extension the workspace relies on. Grab it
+from that repo's releases; upstream Tiled opens the workspace but cannot
+export a mod out of it.
+
+```sh
+python3 tools/tiled_export.py          # -> build/tiled/ (gitignored)
+```
+
+Then open `build/tiled/gen1.tiled-project` in that build of Tiled.
+
+- **The overworld is one surface.** All 222 maps become `maps/*.tmj`, and
+  `kanto.world` places the 36 connected overworld maps at their real
+  connection offsets. That world is pre-loaded (seeded into the workspace's
+  Tiled session), so opening any one overworld map draws its neighbors around
+  it and you scroll and edit straight across the seams. Everything else is a
+  double-click away in Tiled's project panel.
+- **Extending Kanto wires both ends.** A connection lives on both maps, so
+  hooking a new map onto a base map also emits the return connection as a
+  patch on that base map, keeping its other directions intact. The return
+  offset is derived, not guessed: all 78 vanilla reciprocal pairs satisfy
+  `back.offset == -offset`.
+- **A Tiled tile is a gen1 block.** Each of the 24 tilesets becomes a Tiled
+  tileset whose tiles are its 32x32 blocks, composited from the 8x8 sheet,
+  so a tile layer *is* the map's `blocks` array. Warps, signs and objects
+  sit on the 16px cell grid in object layers, which is the grid the engine
+  addresses them on.
+- **Collision is visible.** View > Show Tile Collision Shapes draws the real
+  walkability: a rectangle covers each cell whose feet tile is not in the
+  tileset's `walkable` list, which is the rule `src/world/Map.lua` applies.
+- **Maps are shown in their real colors.** Each map is atlased in the SGB
+  palette it renders with, so Cerulean is blue and Lavender is purple in the
+  editor exactly as in game. Vanilla resolves that through a cascade with
+  interiors inheriting the last outdoor map, so the workspace mirrors the
+  cascade and walks the warp graph to colour interiors. Changing a map's
+  `palette` exports `palette = "..."` on the record, which beats the cascade,
+  and the editor offers the real palette names as a dropdown.
+- **New blocks and new tilesets.** `blocksets/*.tmj` show a tileset's blocks
+  as raw 8x8 tiles, four by four, so new blocks can be composed there;
+  per-tile flags on `tilesets/tiles_*.tsj` become `walkable`, `waterTiles`,
+  `doorTiles` and the rest.
+- **Export is a diff, not a fork of the data.** The `gen1-mod-export`
+  extension (shipped in `tiled_gen1recomp`) writes either one map file or a whole
+  loadable mod folder. An edited vanilla map diffs against the imported data
+  and emits `mod.content.maps:patch` carrying *only* the fields that moved, so
+  a mod covers the parts it changes and leaves the rest to the base game; a
+  new map gets `:register` at an index of 1000 or above. An unchanged map
+  exports nothing at all. Exports pass `tools/modkit.py validate` and `lint`.
+- **Or the whole record, on request.** Ticking `exactExport` on a map switches
+  it to `mod.content.maps:override`, pinning the map to exactly what the
+  editor shows. It is off by default because an override wins outright over
+  any other mod patching that map, where a patch composes.
+
+No ROM-derived art travels into an exported mod: a tileset still drawing on
+the player's own imported sheet references that path rather than shipping the
+pixels, and only a sheet the author supplied is copied in.

+"""Applies gen1recomp's iOS native-bridge patches to the fetched LÖVE 12.0
+source tree (mobile/ios/love-src/). Idempotent AND re-appliable: the first
+run stashes a pristine `.orig` copy of every file it rewrites, and later
+runs always start over from that copy — so editing the patch content here
+just works on the next build, no manual restore needed.
+
+What it does:
+  1. Copies mobile/ios/native/ (GRPickerBridge.swift, GRHealthBridge.swift,
+     GRBootstrap.m) and the HealthKit entitlements into the LÖVE tree.
+  2. Patches liblove's wrap_System.cpp to expose love.system.pickFile,
+     love.system.createFile, and love.system.syncHealthSteps on iOS (each
+     calls a GR*Bridge Swift class through the Objective-C runtime, so
+     liblove never links against Swift directly).
+  3. Patches love.xcodeproj so the love-ios app target compiles the native
+     files (Swift 5, iOS 14 deployment for UTType/forExporting APIs).
