What was kept and consolidated
Foray120 · 6 September 2026 · R-012
The collection now has seven separate essays, focused on dynamics and Myers-style lenses. Original numbers are stable. Earlier source versions remain in Git history; they are not competing maintained essays.
| Earlier essay | Where its worthwhile ideas now live |
|---|---|
| #1, basic dynamics | #8's “Earlier #1 model settings” preserves previous-course D0/free, D1/same and D2/opposite direction rules, categorical curing, fixed starts, and course-event timing. Setup and offset are zero; final cure is off. The course-event projection explicitly compresses each whole course to one event; brick-level playback has a different build clock. #6/#8 retain circular observation. |
| #2, model review | #8 preserves forced clockwise, anticlockwise and alternating policies, an independent numeric-doping JSON law with beta-scaled curing, event-log downloads, analytic windows and genuine next crossings. These are distinct from categorical D labels. Formal state/readout/update discussion is corrected in #6/#7/#8/#9/#13. |
| #3, dossier/worksheet | #13's “End · way · result”, research discipline and method note retain explicit ends/ways/means, assumptions, counterexamples and the proposed-versus-validated boundary. Its duplicated simulations are in #6/#8. Unsupported authority and arbitrary success targets are not retained as research findings. A recovery-only old route offers export if this browser has earlier worksheet notes; it never deletes those entries. |
| #4, possible trajectories | #12 retains its complete representation, with clearer count/policy/pause semantics and responsive layout. |
| #7, notes | Retained as companion documentation linked from #6 and the collection; no longer a separate catalogue essay. |
| #10, motivation | The collection introduction retains a corrected partial-visibility motivation without universal project claims. |
Distinct representations retained
#5 compares spatial order and staggered layouts; #6 explores starts and partial observation; #8 explores course rules and timing; #9 explains interface wiring; #11 applies weather windows to batch scheduling; #12 is the simple policy primer; #13 constructs resource-constrained dynamics and full-completion paths. #13 does not subsume these other questions.
Important repairs
- #5: replace the duplicate “spiral” with genuine anticlockwise order, add direction cues, fit all courses and correct the false rendering timeout.
- #6: align the drawn slot with the visibility predicate, handle a full-circle slot, and label the unconstrained reference tree honestly.
- #8: correct initialisation and watchdog failures; validate inputs; preserve the earlier useful policy/curing models without conflating them.
- #9: copy/discard drawings replace the corresponding wires, and modal focus is contained and restored.
- #11: check the whole declared weather interval, allow exact-fit deadlines, reject rounded starts that finish late, preserve imported weather on policy changes, reject missing samples, and make completion/occupancy measures precise.
- #12: distinguish stochastic rules from deterministic sections and display pauses from curing.
- #13: retain the component dynamics, reachable graph, sufficient-state refinement, completing policy and animated hilltop. The maintained model is limited to those dynamical constructions.
The original versioned prompt and dated research runs are historical evidence. The maintained public scope follows the explicit September2026 direction; corrected toy results are not engineering validation or closure of the whole foray.
