Player autonomy wins: AI Dialogue toggle is only greyed out for RAM fail (< 1.6 GB free). Battery suspend shows a warning label instead of disabling the toggle — player can override the auto-suspend at any time. Changes: - settings_dialog: toggle disabled = hw_status == "fail" only - settings_dialog: add _ai_battery_warning_label (STATUS_YELLOW) shown when _ai_inference_suspended; hidden when plugged back in via set_ai_inference_suspended() - settings_dialog: is_ai_dialogue_toggle_enabled() no longer checks _ai_inference_suspended - settings_dialog: set_ai_inference_suspended() updates warning label visibility, not toggle disabled state - ui-strings: add settings.ai_battery_warning "High battery usage" Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# UI Microcopy — The Settled Reach v0.1
|
|

# Ticket: #409 | Sprint: 5

# Author: Mellanie (Copywriter)

# Date: 2026-02-13

#
|
|
# All player-facing UI text. Organized by category.
|
|
# Voice: Sova Transit District (D-036) — working-class pragmatic, quotidian-with-undertow.
|
|
# Diegetic frame: most UI elements are neural insert overlays, not game chrome.
|
|
#
|
|
# Integration: Stig imports these into client/scripts/constants/ or reads at runtime.
|
|
# Keys are stable identifiers. Values are display strings.
