Editing Textdata NN.dat (section)

== Loading pipeline ==

* <code>Struct_Setup_DatFiles @ 00483ff0</code> — loops all 60 slots, each calling <code>TextArchive_Load_Dat_From_Array @ 00484080</code>, which reads the count then the 3 lines per record.
* <code>TextFile_Dat_FileNum_to_value @ 00485760</code> — the authoritative <code>NN.dat</code> → slot-index switch (see [[BIN textdata]] for context).
* <code>DatFiles_FileNum_value_to_DatType @ 00485650</code> — slot value (0–59) → one of 14 record types (<code>Dat_Type</code> 0–0xD).
* <code>Vtable_DatFiles_DecodeFuncs[Dat_Type] @ 00485618</code> — a 14-entry table of per-type decoders. Each decoder <code>sscanf</code>s an exact number of stat-line fields, <code>operator_new</code>s the record, and copies the parsed columns into it. Decoders are recursive (decode one record, tail-call the next).
* <code>TextDatFiles_GetSlotEntry(g_TextDatFiles, datEnum, idx) @ 00485ac0</code> — runtime fetch of record <code>idx</code> from a loaded slot.
