The recorded demos
A flight recorded one input at a time.
The three main-menu demos bundle their own mission and squad. Select a tape and scrub the graph to inspect the pilot’s controls. The scene link opens that recording’s starting battlefield.
The main menu's View Demo plays one of these tapes. Each bundles the mission and squad, followed by recorded controls. All three are identical across the retail discs. Select a point on the graph to inspect the input for that record.

Identification and recording metadata
The graph is an input-record timeline. Its shaded closing-panel region consumes records without advancing the simulation. The tape files also retain some stale data and depend on settings in the live installation. Research notes.
