💜 ARGUMENTS 💜

• PANEL — (input/output) HPL_T_panel * — on entry, PANEL points to the current panel data structure being broadcast. so she's not just any panel, she's the panel currently getting broadcasted, and HPL_binit is gonna take her and hand her back to you (input/output, we love a two-way relationship 💖)
