FIFA 16 AttribDB Editor v2.1.0

FIFA 16 AttribDB Editor v2.1.0

Feature release covering the work completed after v2.0.0-beta.1.

Highlights

Evidence-backed field research

• Added an authoritative field-annotations.json source with generated runtime annotations, review CSVs, and Markdown field-reference pages.
• Documented every schema line with factual storage information and an explicit evidence status. Unreviewed lines remain Unknown rather than receiving guessed gameplay claims.
• Added maintainer review import/export tooling and evidence validation for sources, notes, test conditions, behavior models, reviewers, and dates.

Research Mode and field UI

• Added Research Mode for editing descriptions, increase/decrease effects, evidence status, behavior model, tested ranges, dependencies, and file summaries without leaving the editor.
• Added browser-local IndexedDB persistence, JSON backup/import, and Sheet-compatible CSV exchange for research workspaces.
• Added Previous, Next, Next Unknown, status filtering, progress counts, keyboard shortcuts, and strict Unknown overrides.
• Added small italic descriptions and evidence-status text beneath every schema line. Text color communicates confidence: Unknown and Hypothesis are dimmer than Observed and Verified.
• Replaced the visible Inferred label with the clearer Hypothesis term while preserving the internal status key for compatibility.
• Made the Research panel draggable and resizable from every side and corner, with viewport bounds, remembered position/dimensions, and Reset Panel.
• Stacked primary research inputs vertically and moved audit metadata into collapsible Advanced evidence settings with status/model help examples.

Editing and release workflow improvements

• Added signed percentage-deviation badges beside changed numeric values, calculated against the verified original baseline.
• Added explicit handling for zero baselines (From 0) and deviation badges for vector, matrix, array, and curve components without obscuring existing controls.
• Expanded editor-core and HTML smoke coverage for deviation calculations, evidence rendering, Research Mode, generated artifacts, and release gates.
• Added deterministic public-package validation and CI checks for generated data, field documentation, tests, redistribution safety, and release tags.
• Automated synchronization of the approved public repository documents and creation of a draft public GitHub release from a matching v* tag.
• Improved project handoff documentation, startup guidance, prompts, and the maintained Evo-Web release-post workflow.

Distribution notes

Users must provide matching original attribdb.bin and attribdb.vlt files.
The public package contains schemas, validation metadata, and the editor, but does not redistribute FIFA BIN/VLT contents.
The release workflow synchronizes the approved public repository files and creates a draft release for final maintainer review.

Known limitation

Modified JSON export remains unreliable in this release.
The main BIN/VLT editing, comparison, revert, and Save All workflows are unaffected.
