Archive mounting and resolution

Resource references cross forge boundaries by 64-bit identity. Breakpoint’s community analysis describes global, set-scoped and index-scoped lookup paths; therefore a single global priority model does not automatically describe every engine read. Sourced · GRB · Breakpoint format reference

Base archive discovery	Composed exact names, including platform, world and graphics variants	Sourced · GRB · Breakpoint format reference
Patch discovery	Wildcard *<name>_patch_*.forge, then parse numeric suffix N	Sourced · GRB · Breakpoint format reference
Priority	Base zero, patch 1 + N; highest first	Sourced · GRB · Breakpoint format reference
Global lookup	First mounted forge holding the id	Sourced · GRB · Breakpoint format reference
Equal-priority tie	Stable sorting after front insertion favors most recently opened forge	Sourced · GRB · Breakpoint format reference
Scoped lookup	A forge, attached patches and split siblings can be searched without global priority	Sourced · GRB · Breakpoint format reference

These are attributed static-code conclusions. The same source leaves opening order among tied forge families unresolved and distinguishes the code’s scan mechanism from validation that every proposed filename loads in game. Sourced · GRB · Breakpoint format reference

Riders Republic

Riders Republic’s USNAT base and patch share 319,678 ids; 447,785 are base-only and 1,099 patch-only. Neither file alone contains the full listed world. The four-file union with patch copies replacing base is consistent with checked dependency closure, but its live priority rule remains inferred. Observed · RR Inferred · RR

In 4,109 sampled duplicated ids, equal name-table hashes accompany identical bodies and differing hashes accompany different bodies. That sample supports a content fingerprint, not a proven collision-free equality test. Observed · RR

Which lookup path resolves each runtime reference?

Breakpoint’s scoped lookups qualify the global-priority rule. Riders Republic live mounting and patch priority are not independently established. Unknown
