The user reported that adding BlackRose to the party does not work. In story:11 Kite ended alone at the Chaos Gate (86). Three things were missing on the way, none of them in the interpreter.

What was missing

1. Stream 7 never played. The town host had no stream. The stream plays in the town's set-up pass at phase 2, before the town's tasks start.
2. Speaking to the Chaos Gate opened its menu. Block 6 of event 11 (talked_to type=13 code=16) never ran, so BlackRose never came over with her member address.
   • The game's rule. ccEvent::CheckOperate(9) gives the talk to the event when a target's type is a bit of the character's base type flags and the codes match.
   • The port's rule. It had mapped event types 0-6 to world kinds (PC, NPC, enemy), so the gate, a type-13 gimmick, was never a target.
3. The Member Address list was empty. The town never gave the menus the registry (ccSpcManager.registry[registryNum]) that PartyInMenu reads for its greeting and its room check.

The fix

• The town host.
  • stream: ccEventStream(num, 1) through the stream player, with subtitles and music, ccGame status 5. It steps a frame at a time while the call waits (Wait::Stream), and its frames show instead of the town's, whose tasks do not run meanwhile. The session gives the renderer the stream's archive.
  • target_alive (ccCheckTarget).
  • game_over: compulsionGameOver, which only the Data Drain menu sets, so always false in a town.
  • clear_gate_hack: ccClearGtHack, logged; nothing in the port sets gtHackFlag yet.
• The talk test. The town world keeps the event's targets as (type, code) and tests them as the interpreter does, against the target's base type flags.
• The Member Address list. ui_world fills fieldui's spc from the registry.

Checked

• A playthrough test. event_11_blackrose_joins_in_mac_anu plays story:11 with a scripted pad, as a player would:

  1. windows closed;
  2. Kite walks to the Chaos Gate and speaks to it;
  3. BlackRose's block runs and gives her member address;
  4. then triangle, Party, Add, BlackRose, OK.

  She joins the party, and no event instruction falls to a host default (take_unported() is empty).

• An existing test updated. event_2_plays_to_the_scene_change now expects clear_gate_hack at frame 12, which the game calls from ccStartThEvent.

• The rest. The workspace's tests, clippy, fmt, the docs check, test_world_rs and test_field_rt pass.

• A shot. Stream 7 in Mac Anu: BlackRose facing Kite.
