pub const HAND_AUTHORED_CHAPTER_MAX: i64 = 9;Expand description
Highest 0-based current_chapter_level at which enemy_power_scalar
resolves campaign enemy power from the hand-authored FightTemplate.power
(base_power) instead of the derived chapter curve. Set to 9 so the ENTIRE
first stage (levels 0..=9 = stages 1-1..1-10) is hand-authored onboarding
difficulty: the coderived curve AND the ch7-15 mid-boss gear gate do NOT
apply inside stage 1 (the gate still starts at ch10 = stage 2-1).
Levels 7,8,9 are EXCLUSIVELY stage-1 chapters (level 10 = stage 2-1), so
raising this from the legacy ENEMY_CURVE_ANCHOR_CHAPTER (6) changes ONLY
stage-1 difficulty and leaves every ch>=10 fight (curve + mid-boss bump)
byte-identical. Kept DISTINCT from the curve anchor so the derived-curve
calibration pins (anchored at ch7) are untouched. Env:
