VCS Global Variables Space is not Homogeneous

[x87]

VCS Script

The same global variable indices (e.g. $5335) appear in different missions as different arrays. The arrays even have different sizes (e.g. $5335(0@,3) vs $5335(0@,100))
This contradicts the expectation that global variables are:

• Uniquely assigned
• Immutable in layout across the entire script

Reason

The SCM defines a boundary via:

"trueGlobals": 5330

This splits variables into two categories:

• $2 … $5331 → true globals (unique, persistent)
• $5332+ → reusable scratch variables

Scratch Variables:

• Are not uniquely assigned per mission
• Act as a shared memory region
• Can be reinterpreted differently by each mission
• Allow overlapping arrays with different sizes and purposes

[x87]

This affects how the disassembler outputs global variables falling within the "shared" global space, oftentimes with nonsensical indexes.

{278887} $5332[0] = -973.8
{278896} $5332[1] = -1104.73
{278905} $5334[0] = 14.87
{278914} $5334[1] = 0
