UI specification

Win32 windowing, screen modes, dialogs, and input routing.

Scope

• Main window creation and message loop
• Pointer/cursor state and hit testing
• Screen mode overlays and restore stack
• Dialog flows (options, save/load wizard, MP lobby)
• Loading/status messaging

Evidence

• ../../architecture/ui/MODULE.md — Win32 entry, cursor, hit test
• ../../architecture/game/MODULE.md — UI input dispatch, screen mode tick, MP lobby wizard
• ../../scenes/README.md — interactive screen mode catalog (every lotr2_game_screen_mode value)

First spec targets

1. Screen modes and overlays — lotr2_game_ui_queue_screen_action / lotr2_game_ui_restore_screen_mode; palette fade transition (mode 0x23).
2. MP lobby wizard — lotr2_game_wizard_step sub-steps within mode 0x1f; host vs client paths (lotr2_game_wizard_on_mp_host, lotr2_game_on_mp_lobby_start).
