✅ Verified in-game — deeper pass: re-confirmed the LoadStateChange/GuiInitialization→MrxGuiLoadScreen wiring, the single ReInit function, and no inherit against source; added the widget geometry constants (transparent root, black background, "Loading" text at 56,416 font_16)

MrxGuiLoadLayout

Module: mrxguiloadlayout.lua

Overview

The MrxGuiLoadLayout module is responsible for defining and managing the layout of the loading screen GUI. It sets up a container widget that includes a background image and a text widget displaying “Loading”. The module also handles reinitialization of these widgets.

Inheritance

• Inherits from: none — base/utility module
• Imports: MrxGuiLoadScreen, MrxGuiBase

Instance pattern

This is a stateless manager/utility module. It does not track any per-instance state but manages the loading screen GUI layout and reinitialization.

Functions

ReInit()

Reinitializes the loading screen GUI by removing any previously added widgets and then adding new ones based on the predefined LocalWidgetList. This function is likely called when the game needs to refresh or reset the loading screen. This is the only top-level function defined in this file.

Events

No Event.Create/Event.* engine-event references appear in this file — confirmed by grep. The root “Loading Screen” widget in LocalWidgetList wires its EventHandlers.LoadStateChange key to MrxGuiLoadScreen.HandleStateChangeEvent and its EventHandlers.GuiInitialization key to MrxGuiLoadScreen.HandleInit — both are widget-level event handler names, not Event.* constants, and both handler functions live in mrxguiloadscreen.lua, not this file. ReInit() itself is not wired to anything here; it’s a plain callable function invoked directly by other code.

Widget geometry & constants

• "Loading Screen" root: full-screen 640×480 container, white but fully transparent (TranslucencyLevel = 0) — the visible loading content comes from the child widgets and the Scaleform movie MrxGuiLoadScreen builds at runtime, not from this root.
• "Loading background" child: full-screen 640×480 black (0,0,0,255) image, no texture in the layout.
• "Loading text" child: the literal text "Loading" at 56,416–111,432, font_16, left/bottom-anchored. This is a plain fallback label; the animated skull/save UI lives in MrxGuiLoadScreen.

Notes for modders

• This file is pure layout data. The loading behavior — the "loadingscreen" .gfx movie, the spinning save icon, analog passthrough — all lives in MrxGuiLoadScreen; change the visuals there, not here.
• ReInit() is a full teardown/rebuild of the widget tree (same AddedWidgetList-must-pre-exist caveat as the other layout files).
