About the databank
How the site is built, what the numbers mean, and where they stop.
01The archive
Every record here is read out of the shipped game, build 24874058. Damage values, critical chances, range bands, focus costs, level gates, drop weights and reward chances are the numbers the game itself uses, not measurements taken from play. Where a page shows a piece of prose, that is the game's own authored text, keyword markup and all: when a description says Burning, the game marked that word as a keyword and the link goes to the same definition the game would show you.
Tactical maps are the one thing drawn rather than read. The game ships no top-down art for its levels, so each chart is a plan view built from the level's own placed geometry and actor transforms: the floor plan under it is every static mesh in the level projected down and rasterised, and the markers are the real cover, spawn, objective and hazard actors at their real coordinates.
02Reading a record
A stat bar is scaled against the highest value anything in the game reaches for that stat, so a full bar means best in class rather than full marks. Ranges are the raw figures the game stores rather than metres or tiles, so they are worth reading against each other and not on their own. Critical chance is stored as a fraction and shown as a percentage.
Focus cost on a skill line is cumulative, not additive. Taking the tier-four ability at cost 13 replaces the cost you had already paid for tier three rather than stacking on top of it, which is why the build planner prices a finished line far lower than adding its tiers together would suggest.
A cross-reference that renders as plain text rather than a link is a reference to something the game has no player-facing entry for. Those are left readable instead of being turned into a page with a heading and nothing under it.
03What is not here
Roughly two hundred abilities and effects in the game files are bookkeeping: cooldown markers, interrupt flags, damage plumbing. They carry no name, no description, no modifiers and nothing a player ever sees, so they get no page. The same goes for the character appearance catalogue, the animation and projectile tables, and the campaign arc scaffolding, which in this build still holds placeholder names.
Custom recruits are absent by nature. They are generated when you hire them, so the game ships their parts rather than the people; the roster covers the authored operators only. Anything a future patch adds will need the extraction run again, so treat the build number in the footer as the date on this archive.
04The game in its own words
The game explains itself in a set of briefings the tutorial shows once and then files away. They are reproduced here verbatim, because they are the clearest statement of how the Den, the roster and the strategy layer are meant to work.
