The locker¶

The locker (medal_display, 0x004362F0, MedalDisplay by its assertions) is the screen Open Locker opens in the Reliant's rooms and the Yamato's (The Reliant's rooms). It runs in a loop of its own over the lid's movie: the lid goes up, and the pilot's medals and ribbons come into view with it. Its code lies within C:\lancer\game\interface.cpp.

In OpenReliant¶

game/interface/locker.zig holds the locker, and locker/tables.zig the tables of where it shows each award and how, which tablegen locker reads out of the executable (make locker-tables). The driver runs its loop (Driver.openLocker in openreliant/rooms.zig). The medals and ribbons are the campaign's (Saved games).

Fixes:

• The lid's movies are each the locker's own. The game opens three of the four into another movie's handle (bink_movie, 0x005D6C40) and goes on drawing and timing its own (vr_movie, 0x0051D7E8), which then holds a movie already closed: the Reliant's lid going down, and the Yamato's going up and down.
• Past the end of its table, for a lid's movie longer than the game's, an award keeps the table's last shape. The game reads on past the table.

Its timer, 15 times a second (0x00437DE0), is left out: nothing it counts shows.

The lid¶

On the Yamato the locker first plays lockzomi.bik over the screen, from the disc's archive. Then the lid goes up: its movie plays from the disc's archive at 15 frames a second, with sound 5 of the rooms' wlksmp.fat.

Once the lid is up, either button sends it down; so does Escape, at any time. The lid goes down in its own movie, with sound 4, and the locker closes as it ends, or at once on Escape. The rooms then go on with step 6 (The loop); on the Yamato the view they go on in comes in through lockzomo.bik. While the lid is up, 0 saves a screenshot (Screenshots).

The awards¶

As the lid goes up, the locker reads a set of shapes from the disc's archive for each medal and each ribbon the pilot has, %d its number: on the Reliant rmedal%d.spr and rbar%d.spr, and on the Yamato medal%d.spr and bar%d.spr. Each set is drawn in its own block 0's palette.

Its drawing (medal_display_draw, 0x00436B20) shows each award at a place of its own, as the shape its table gives for the lid's frame, none for 0. The frame (0x005201AC) steps with each frame of the lid's movie but its last: up from -1 as the lid goes up, and down from 21 on the Reliant, 14 on the Yamato, as far as 0, as it goes down. The tables (0x004E77C0 to 0x004E7B4C) hold a row for each of the six medals and the six ribbons on each carrier: 64 frames for the Reliant's medals, 23 for its ribbons, and 16 for the Yamato's.

With the lid up, the drawing writes the name of the award under the pointer, where the pilot has it, and else Close Locker (0xD5), centred at (320, 440), in white, in the front end's large font. Then it draws the pointer, the front end's. The pointer finds an award inside its rectangle, the edges left out (interface_hit):

The missions that award each medal and ribbon are in After a mission.
