`ui_sab1_b`

EternalJK

Needs review. The inventory/provenance evidence is recorded, but some behavior, options, or attribution still lacks a direct user-facing source.

Engine-managed. The game maintains this value itself, so it is not a setting to change by hand: it is internal UI/engine state, hidden from every cvar listing (CVAR_INTERNAL).

Controls ui_sab1_b in the ui module. Consult the cited behavior reads before relying on values not listed here.
