App configs (src/data/configs/) — 6 files

• config.json: { lang } — user UI language.
• zone_exclusions.json: { zones:[{name,x1,y1,x2,y2,enabled,id} | {name,type:"polygon",points:[{x,y}],enabled,id}], version }. Map exclusion zones.
• base_inventory_loadouts.json: { MedRack:{regular:[ItemRef],key_items:[ItemRef]}, GuildChest:{...} }. ItemRef={id,qty,name}.
• equipment_loadouts.json: { Meta:{regular:[],key_items:[],equipment:{weapon1-6,head,body,accessory1-4,shield,glider,food1-5,sphere_mod:{id,qty,name}}} }.
• inventory_loadouts.json: { MetaInventory:{regular:[ItemRef],key_items:[ItemRef]} }.
• passive_loadouts.json: { "<name>":[4 passive asset names] }. 13 presets (Speedster, Immortality, Aegis, ...).

i18n system (src/i18n/init.py, 67 lines)

• 8 languages: en_US, zh_CN, ru_RU, fr_FR, es_ES, de_DE, ja_JP, ko_KR.
• _RES: {lang: {key:text}} — ALL 8 loaded into memory simultaneously by load_resources().
• init_language(default='zh_CN') — reads config.json lang, falls back to default. NOTE: defaults to Chinese, not English.
• t(key, default=_DEF, **fmt): lookup _RES[_LANG] → fallback _RES['en_US'] → return key itself (or default). Applies str.format(**fmt) if kwargs.
• set_language(lang): validates against _SUPPORTED_LANGS, persists to config.json.
• Translation files: flat {key:value} dicts, ~1884 keys, keys are English strings (identity-mapped in en_US). {placeholder} formatting.
• resources/i18n/config.json: NOT a lang registry — mixed settings file (lang + showiconinlist + checkstartlogs + base.radius.* UI strings).

Resource resolution (src/resource_resolver.py + boot_paths.py)

Dual-mode: works dev (running from source) and frozen (Nuitka/cx_Freeze).

• _compute_binary_root() (resource_resolver:5): checks sys._PST_BINARY_ROOT → sys.executable dir for resources/ → parent → walks up 5 dirs from file → fallback. Cached in sys._PST_BINARY_ROOT.
• boot_paths.py: ROOT_DIR, SRC_DIR, RESOURCES_DIR, DATA_DIR, CONFIG_DIR, GUI_DIR(=resources/ui/themes), ASSETS_DIR.
• _RESOURCE_MAP (resource_resolver:44-99): legacy/flat name → canonical resources/ path aliases (logo.png→assets/branding/logo.png, etc). _FLAT_KEYS for quick matching.
• resource_path(base_dir, *parts): joins parts, looks up _RESOURCE_MAP, returns os.path.join(base_dir,'resources',mapped).

GOTCHAS

• src/data/icon/ (paladius.ico, xenolord.ico) = ORPHANED CRUFT — zero code references. Safe to remove.
• friendship.json duplicates characters.json's friendship block.
• init_language defaults to zh_CN (Chinese) if config.json missing — could surprise non-Chinese users running fresh.
• i18n config.json is a mixed settings+strings file, not a pure language registry.
