GameManager matching notes

• FUN_0043BBE1 @ 0x0043BBE1 proves that VC7 /Os /Ob1 distinguishes a native array-element increment from decompiler-style assignment. The practice counter must be written as pscrData[shot].attempts[stage][difficulty]++; spelling it as a = a + 1 reverses the stage/shot index materialization, grows the function from 0x228 to 0x229, and shifts the remaining block by one byte.

Production ownership and order

The class name is not the production-object contract. Current exact owners are:

• early setters SetLives, UpdateAntiTamper, SetBombCount, and SetPower: AsciiManager.obj;
• IsSoloHuman, IsSoloYoukai, and GetLives: EnemyManager.obj;
• ScaleFloatBasedOnRank: the target-contiguous AsciiManagerBossMarker.obj block at 0x00422B80..0x00422C13;
• RandomizeAntiTamper, AddToDeaths, and AddToBombsUsed: the explicit Player-local block at 0x0044E160..0x0044E348;
• the continuous 0x00439829..0x0043C6F5 main region, including explicit AddLives between the constructor and arcade initializer: GameManager.obj.

These owners are backed by mapped target neighborhoods, production callers, and strict replay, not just byte-identical duplicate sections. See the combined case study in KNOWLEDGE_BASE.md before changing header visibility, PCH include order, or an owner in match-units.toml.
