90 brought event 11 to the holy ground with BlackRose. This entry follows it into the church, and closes the host defaults the other story starts still ran (86).

Event 11 in the church

An ignored test, event_11_church_log, plays on from the arrival. Kite walks north through block 0's door (x 0..190 from y 3575, 84) into the nave, and every window is closed as it opens, including those of the church's set-up pass. Event 11 then plays:

1. Streams 8 and 9.
2. The Book of Twilight's four windows (messages 24-27, InfoNow).
3. Streams 10, 11 and 12. Stream 10 is the first Data Drain.
4. BlackRose's talk (messages 28-32), with its camera moves.
5. The way back to Mac Anu.

The one host gap on the way. The field host's party_remove, where the event takes BlackRose out of the party, still runs the default, so in the port she stays. That method belongs with the field's party work (the combat agent's area_host, with the field menu's Add and Remove).

The other starts' defaults

• near_marker in a town. The game computes ccGetDist(ccTransPosW2P(marker), plw->posP) (ccEvent::CheckOpen, main 0x001a7d9c):

  • ccGetDist measures the distance on the ground;
  • ccTransPosW2P in a town is char::w2p, relative to Kite and wrapped;
  • the player's own posP is w2p of his position.

  World::player_distance does the same, with piney-battle's get_dist (0x001d9dd0, checked with the enemies' movement). story:13 used it.

• The desktop's overlay. The game loads an overlay's code. The port holds every overlay's code at once, so there is nothing to load.

• The desktop's play_pass_done. It sets a flag of ccMenu, the field menu, which does not run on the desktop.

• The desktop's clear_gate_hack. As in the town (90): nothing in the port sets gtHackFlag yet.

Checked

• The story starts. With X pressed every 25 frames, story starts 10, 12, 13 and 14 now run without a host default.
• The rest. The workspace's tests, clippy, fmt, the docs check and test_world_rs pass.
