It distinguishes intended retail 3.1 behavior from community-patch research and deliberate modern changes, and separates synthetic checks from tests requiring original game data.",

    "Native use requires the user’s installed Total Annihilation HPI archives. The reference installation includes Core Contingency, Battle Tactics and patch 3.1; other combinations remain under testing.",

    "The project is beta. Modern rules intentionally change behavior, while Strict 3.1 expresses a compatibility aim.",
    "Synthetic tests run without retail assets; the separate retail tier requires an installed game.",
    "Original engine code is MIT; original game assets and dependency licenses are separate. The publication note describes curated integration snapshots, omitted raw research and unresolved attribution questions."

  "requirements_zh": [
    "原生使用需要用户已安装的 Total Annihilation HPI 归档。参考安装包含 Core Contingency、Battle Tactics和3.1补丁；其他组合仍在测试。",
    "固定提交源码要求 Go 1.27.1 或更新版本及 Ebitengine 2.10.5。原生目标包括 Windows、macOS 13+ 及具备图形、音频库的 Linux；浏览器构建仍属实验性。",
    "项目仍为beta。Modern规则有意改变行为；Strict 3.1表达兼容目标。",
    "合成测试不使用零售资产，单独的零售测试层需要已安装游戏。",
    "原创引擎代码采用MIT，原游戏资产和依赖许可证另行处理。发布说明记录了整理后的集成快照、删去的原始研究及未解决的归属问题。"
