Perk ID map

Derived from FUN_0042fd90 (perk database init). IDs are stored in DAT_004c2b**/DAT_004c2c** constants; names and descriptions are filled via FUN_0042fd00.

Notes:

  • perk_id_bloody_mess_quick_learner (DAT_004c2b44) selects between two perk definitions depending on DAT_004807b4.
  • Flags live at perk_flags_table (DAT_004c2c48) + id * 0x14 and gate availability in perk_can_offer:
  • 0x1 allows the perk when _DAT_00480360 == 3.
  • 0x2 allows the perk when _DAT_0048035c == 2 (two-player mode).
  • 0x4 marks stackable perks (random selection accepts them even if already taken).
  • perk_prereq_table (DAT_004c2c50) + id * 0x14 stores prerequisite perk ids (checked via perk_count_get).
  • Music track ids are initialized in audio_init_music (see detangling notes).
