Provenance

Origin: Base Jedi Academy

Baseline evidence: 14cea1563762
Upstream registration evidence: code/cgame/cg_main.cpp:331
Attribution method: present-in-openjk-initial-source-import
Attribution confidence: high
Notes: Identifier is present in OpenJK’s initial Raven source-import snapshot. Dated commit evidence identifies later registration changes relative to the origin snapshot.

Later changes

These commits occur after the ultimate-origin introduction on TaystJK’s inherited first-parent lineage. Registration evidence is exact; behavior evidence requires a changed bound cvar reference or a changed registered command-handler hunk.

Date	Change source	Commit / subject	Evidence	Confidence
`2013-04-07`	OpenJK	`a09d4827fb0d` Added /codeJK2/ for JK2. Also did a whole bunch of other crap which I shouldn’t have, in hindsight. Have fun!	Changed registration, default, flags, module, renderer scope, handler, or gating. `codeJK2/cgame/cg_main.cpp`	`medium`
`2013-04-07`	OpenJK	`b319c52fd4ed` Major codemp cleanup. Ported modbase. Restructured VS2010 projects.	Changed registration, default, flags, module, renderer scope, handler, or gating; and an exact bound cvar-variable reference. `codemp/cgame/cg_event.c`, `codemp/cgame/cg_main.c`, `codemp/cgame/cg_weapons.c` and 1 more	`medium`
`2013-08-11`	OpenJK	`794718e3fdfb` Merge pull request #344 from Razish/qvmtest	Changed an exact bound cvar-variable reference. `codemp/ui/ui_main.c`	`medium`
`2013-09-23`	OpenJK	`06310990a9eb` Some cleanup and fixes for UI code. Also disables automatic overstrike mode in UI fields.	Changed an exact bound cvar-variable reference. `codemp/ui/ui_main.c`	`medium`
`2014-01-30`	OpenJK	`d3a6d2b9b9d2` [MP] Style: remove superfluous whitespace	Changed an exact bound cvar-variable reference. `codemp/cgame/cg_weapons.c`	`medium`
`2015-11-24`	EternalJK	`c8f6ea17a324` Remove SP code	Changed registration, default, flags, module, renderer scope, handler, or gating. `code/cgame/cg_main.cpp`, `code/client/cl_main.cpp`, `codeJK2/cgame/cg_main.cpp`	`medium`
