## Integration Summary
|
||||
|
||||
### Variable Tracking System
|
||||
|
||||
**From Opening Briefing (Act 1):**
|
||||
```ink
|
||||
VAR player_approach = "" // cautious, aggressive, diplomatic
|
||||
VAR handler_trust = 50 // 0-100 scale
|
||||
VAR knows_m2_connection = false
|
||||
VAR mission_priority = "" // stealth, speed, thoroughness
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**From Victoria NPC:**
|
||||
```ink
|
||||
VAR victoria_influence = 0
|
||||
VAR victoria_fate = "" // recruited, arrested, escaped, ignored
|
||||
VAR rfid_clone_complete = false
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**From James Choice:**
|
||||
```ink
|
||||
VAR james_evidence_level = 0 // 0=innocent, 1=suspicious, 2=complicit
|
||||
VAR james_fate = "" // protected, exposed, ignored
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**From Gameplay (External):**
|
||||
```ink
|
||||
EXTERNAL objectives_completed
|
||||
EXTERNAL lore_collected
|
||||
EXTERNAL stealth_rating
|
||||
EXTERNAL flags_submitted_count
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Objectives Integration
|
||||
|
||||
**Ink tags for objective control:**

||||
#complete_task:clone_rfid_card
|
||||
#unlock_aim:network_recon
|
||||
#complete_task:scan_network
|
||||
#complete_task:decode_whiteboard
|
||||
#complete_task:james_choice_made
|
||||
#complete_task:victoria_choice_made
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**From Stage 4 (Objectives):**
|
||||
- All task IDs match objectives.json structure
|
||||
- Progressive unlocking (clone keycard → server room access → network recon)
|
||||
- Optional objectives tracked (LORE fragments, moral choices)
|
||||
|
||||
### Room Layout Integration
|
||||
|
||||
**From Stage 5 (Room Design):**
|
||||
- Reception lobby → Receptionist NPC
|
||||
- Conference room → Victoria daytime meeting + RFID cloning
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### LORE Fragment Integration
|
||||
|
||||
**From Stage 6 (LORE Fragments):**
|
||||
- Fragment 1: Zero Day Origins → CyberChef decoding (or direct pickup in filing cabinet)
|
||||
- Fragment 2: Exploit Catalog → Safe PIN 2010 (from receptionist hint)
|
||||

|
||||
- All fragments have discovery acknowledgment in debrief
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Technical Specifications
|
||||
|
||||
### Ink Best Practices Followed
|
||||
|
||||
✅ **Dialogue Pacing:** Maximum 3 lines before player choice (exceptions for cutscenes: 5 lines max)
|
||||
✅ **Hub Pattern:** All NPCs use hub with `->` returns and sticky `+` choices
|
||||
✅ **Exit Conversations:** All paths include `#exit_conversation` before DONE
|
||||
✅ **Speaker Tags:** All dialogue uses `#speaker:character_name`
|
||||
✅ **Variable Naming:** Consistent conventions (topic_, player_, npc_, found_, etc.)
|
||||
✅ **Tag Integration:** Objectives, item giving, event triggers all tagged
|
||||
✅ **External Variables:** Declared at top of files that use them
|
||||
|
||||
### Tags Used
|
||||
|
||||
**Conversation Control:**
|
||||
```ink
|
||||
#speaker:character_name
|
||||
#exit_conversation
|
||||
#display:mood_state
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Game Integration:**
|
||||
```ink
|
||||
#complete_task:task_id
|
||||
#unlock_task:task_id
|
||||
#unlock_aim:aim_id
|
||||
#give_item:item_id:quantity:slot
|
||||
#start_gameplay
|
||||
#mission_complete
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Event Triggers:**
|
||||
```ink
|
||||
#trigger_event:event_name
|
||||
#trigger_combat
|
||||
#hostile:npc_id
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Compilation Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
**CRITICAL:** All Ink files must be compiled to JSON before Stage 8.
|
||||
|
||||
**Command:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
./scripts/compile-ink.sh m03_ghost_in_the_machine
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected Output:**
|
||||
- 9 compiled .json files in scenarios/ink/
|
||||
- Warnings about END tags in cutscenes (expected)
|
||||
- No compilation errors
|
||||
|
||||
**Cutscene Scripts (use END):**
|
||||
- m03_opening_briefing.ink
|
||||
- m03_closing_debrief.ink
|
||||
- m03_victoria.ink (confrontation path)
|
||||
- m03_james_choice.ink (confrontation variant)
|
||||
|
||||
**Repeatable Scripts (use hub):**
|
||||
- m03_npc_guard.ink
|
||||
- m03_npc_receptionist.ink
|
||||
- m03_phone_agent0x99.ink (event calls)
|
||||
- m03_terminal_dropsite.ink
|
||||
- m03_terminal_cyberchef.ink

## Narrative Achievement Summary
|
||||
|
||||
### M2 Hospital Attack Integration
|
||||
|
||||
✅ **Opening Setup:** Agent 0x99 reveals connection in briefing
|
||||
✅ **Evidence Collection:** FTP banner (GHOST), HTTP pricing, distcc logs
|
||||
✅ **Smoking Gun:** ProFTPD exploit $12,500 with healthcare premium
|
||||
✅ **Emotional Impact:** M2 revelation call after distcc flag
|
||||
✅ **Debrief Closure:** Victim names acknowledged, justice confirmed
|
||||
|
||||
**Evidence Chain:**
|
||||
Zero Day (Victoria Sterling) → Sold exploit to GHOST → Ransomware Inc → St. Catherine's Hospital → 6 deaths
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 2 Threat Setup
|
||||
|
||||
✅ **Architect's Directive Found:** USB drive double-encoding challenge
|
||||
✅ **Specific Projections:** 50,000+ patients, 1.2M customers, 427 substations
|
||||
✅ **Multi-Cell Coordination:** Zero Day + Ransomware Inc + Social Fabric + Critical Mass
|
||||
✅ **Timeline:** Q4 2024 - Q1 2025 (imminent threat)
|
||||
✅ **Debrief Discussion:** SAFETYNET escalation, inter-agency response
|
||||
|
||||
### Moral Complexity Achievement
|
||||
|
||||
✅ **Victoria Sterling:** True believer ideology vs calculated harm
|
||||
✅ **James Park:** Unknowing participation vs post-knowledge complicity
|
||||
✅ **Player Agency:** Multiple valid moral choices, no "right" answer
|
||||
✅ **Consequences:** Each choice acknowledged in debrief with nuance
|
||||
|
||||
**Victoria Paths:**
|
||||
- Recruit as double agent → risky but valuable intelligence
|
||||
- Arrest for prosecution → justice but loses intel source
|
||||
- Escapes → disrupted but remains threat
|
||||
|
||||
**James Paths:**
|
||||
- Protect → recognizes victimhood, he cooperates voluntarily
|
||||
- Expose → accountability despite deception, reduced sentence
|
||||
- Ignore → his choice, comes forward anyway
|
||||
|
||||
### Character Voice Achievement
|
||||
|
||||
✅ **Agent 0x99:** Supportive mentor, quirky Haxolottle personality, emotionally affected by M2
|
||||
✅ **Victoria Sterling:** Intelligent ideologue, "free market" rationalizations, breaks under evidence
|
||||
✅ **Guard:** Working-class pragmatist, follows procedures, can be reasoned with or bribed
|
||||
✅ **Receptionist:** Friendly professional, helpful world-building, natural PIN hint delivery
|
||||
✅ **James Park:** Guilt-ridden, conflicted, wants to do right but fears consequences
|
||||
|
