Commit 28fb49

2026-09-06 19:36:22 Anonymous: EXT102 r8: correct X29's count from two to one. Cutter, Equipment and Enemies were all created while this revision was being written, the last between my final verification and my save, so only Colony now 404s. Correcting rather than leaving a wrong number published; the finding shrank because the index is being fixed faster than I can file against it, which is worth recording as the reason.
