khallaandClaude Opus 5.5 a7f8496b2b Quest dialogs: stay centred, clickable, closable with Esc
- Quest dialogs are tooltips. A tooltip now keeps the offset it gets when it
  becomes visible (the hovered window's, or centred for dialogs) and records
  it for hit tests; its own event handler is shifted too. Hidden windows no
  longer count as hovered.
- Esc closes a visible dialog the way its answer buttons do: hide, then
  cDialogManager::Answer with no answer (ends the input lock, nothing chosen).
- Autotest can select a save game row (-Save).
- Names for the UI manager, tooltip and dialog functions.

tools

Node tools need npm install here once (iced-x86). Paths to sacred.exe are passed explicitly.

Tool Purpose
disasm.mjs <exe> <va> [n] disassemble at an address, ignoring Ghidra's function boundaries
find-imm.mjs <exe> <value...> every instruction using an immediate value (e.g. 1024 768)
find-imm.mjs <exe> /regex/ every instruction whose text matches (e.g. /96AB0h\]/)
rtti.mjs <exe> <Class> vtables of an MSVC class via RTTI
decompile.ps1 <addr...> decompile from the persistent Ghidra project ghidra/
rename.ps1 apply the function names in names.txt to the Ghidra project (add names there as functions are identified)

Persistent Ghidra project (ghidra/, not in git)

Created once (about 7 minutes):

$env:GHIDRA_HEADLESS_MAXMEM = "8G"
& "$env:GHIDRA_INSTALL_DIR\support\analyzeHeadless.bat" ghidra sacred -import "<Sacred Gold>\sacred.exe"
& "$env:GHIDRA_INSTALL_DIR\support\analyzeHeadless.bat" ghidra sacred -process sacred.exe -scriptPath tools\ghidra -postScript ApplyRtti.java

ApplyRtti.java recovers the MSVC 6 RTTI that Ghidra's own script misses: 410 vtables, ~1200 extra functions, methods named Class::vfNN.

Automated in-game test

autotest-load.ps1 starts the game through the launcher, clicks "Spiel laden" -> "Laden" -> "Ok" (first save game), takes screenshots in-game and with the ESC menu open, and stops the game. -Ini appends temporary settings to build\x86-debug\sacred_re.ini (restored afterwards), e.g.

.\tools\autotest-load.ps1 -Name ws_off -Ini "[widescreen]`r`nEnabled=0"

Click positions assume the classic menu layout scaled onto a 3440x1440 monitor. game-input.ps1 has the building blocks (start, click, key, hold key, screenshot). Don't touch mouse/keyboard while a test runs.
