Game variables
Game variables are described on a separate page
Initial game state
The original engine does not allow for having archive.dat specify the initial state for both the game and hacker.
The System Shock Enhanced Edition Source Port introduced a modified start behaviour,
which allows for (almost) full control on how and where the protagonist starts:
When the first field of the physics state (the X coordinate of EDMS state) is not zero,
then most default settings are skipped, and data is taken from archive.dat.
Still, some minimal setup is performed either way, in order to have a stable game.
This behaviour exists already in the original engine, but it only considers the physics structure itself, and no further information, such as the current level or any game variable.
Mission-independent hardcoded defaults
The following defaults are being applied regardless of existing data in archive.dat.
Game state fields
| Offset | Name | Initial value |
|---|---|---|
| 0000 | Hacker name | as per start menu |
| 0015 | Difficulties | as per start menu |
| 0038 | Detail Level | as per configuration |
| 003A | Initial SHODAN levels | all to -1 |
| 006C | Player Object ID | 0 |
| 00A0 | Damage rate per minute | all to 0 |
| 0511 | ObjectID of current target | 0 |
| 0513 | Last weapon fire time | 0 |
| ** | Various MFD fields | To a consistent (empty) MFD display |
| 0309 | Installed Hardware[10] | 1 to hardcode "fullscreen hardware" |
| 0570 | Active bio tracks | 0xFF |
| 00F6 | Integer game variables[48] | Language, as per configuration |
The two "random" game variables (index 31 and 32) are randomized only if they are equal.
Mission-dependent defaults
The following defaults are being applied only if physics state field X is zero.
Game state fields
| Offset | Name | Initial value |
|---|---|---|
| 0039 | Current level identifier | 1 |
| 007A | General Inventory | all to 0 |
| 009C | Health | 212 |
| 009D | Cyberspace Integrity | 255 |
| 009E | Hitpoint regeneration | 0 |
| 00AC | Power | 255 |
| 00B2 | Cyberspace time base | 504000 (30 minutes in 280 ticks-per-second) |
| 0181 | Fatigue regeneration | 0 |
| 0183 | Fatigue regeneration base | 100 |
| 0183 | Fatigue regeneration max | 400 |
| 0187 | Accuracy | 100 |
| 0188 | Shield absorb rate | 0 |
| 0357 | Message status[26] | 0x80, to mark email from Rebecca received |
| 048B | Weapons[*].type | 0xFF, to mark no weapon in slot |
| 04FF | Explosives timer[*] | 70 (= 7 seconds) |
| 0519 | HUD actives[9] | 0xFF, to mark email being active |
| 053F | Physics state (EDMS) | X=30.5, Y=22.5, Z=planted at floor, Alpha=West |
