SHIPPED: the default rack is now Pattern-only (+49% hit rate, +66% damage on the boss)
`DefaultRackMembership` now admits Pattern (id 5) and marks all 14 other guns `rmOff`. **The selector mechanism is untouched** - `chooseFromFit`, the floor/band logic, the hysteresis and the virtual-fitness plumbing are all intact and functional. Only the rack membership changed, so this is reverted by env alone. Evidence (measured, replicated three times, 10 adversaries): Pattern alone gives 10.36% real hit rate / 264 damage per run vs the full rack's 6.93% / 159. Pattern significantly wins on DrussGT, Corners, Crazy and PatternMover, ties on three, and the full rack never significantly beats it on ANY adversary. Mechanism: the virtual signal keeps ranking the wrong guns first (HeadOn 46% of ticks at 2.0% real; Linear 57.7% at 6.0% real while Pattern sits at 11.1%). **THIS CONTRADICTS THE USER'S STANDING DIRECTIVE** to keep virtual-fitness selection. Recorded plainly in docs/selector_negative_value.md with a SHIPPED DECISION banner rather than done quietly: the mechanism is retained and one env var away, because the measurement says it is negative value on every rack size tested and on 10/10 adversaries. Revert one-liner (no rebuild): TR_RACK_PATTERN=both TR_RACK_HEADON=both TR_RACK_LINEAR=both TR_RACK_TSETLIN=both \ TR_RACK_CIRCULAR=both TR_RACK_GUESSFACTOR=both TR_RACK_WALLBOUNCE=both \ TR_RACK_ACCEL=both TR_RACK_STOPSHOT=both TR_RACK_DISPLACE=both TR_RACK_AVGLEAD=both \ TR_RACK_DECAYGF=both TR_RACK_KNN=both TR_RACK_TMSELECT=both ./out/ModularBot The unit test `testRevertOverrideRestoresFullRack` exercises exactly this table. FLOOR PATH, verified not assumed: `chooseFromFit` already returns `admitted[0]` on the floor path, so it respects admission by construction. Cold field + shipped default -> floor returns Pattern (id 5), NOT HeadOn. With an explicit all-`both` membership the same cold field returns gun 0 (HeadOn) - the old behaviour. Four assertions in `testFloorRespectsAdmission`. LIVENESS: one 1-round battle with NO overrides -> Pattern selected 105/105 = 100%, every other gun 0 including TMPattern. Honesty caveat retained in the doc: 4 of the 10 opponents were Tank Royale sample-bot PORTS rather than the original classic jars (only DrussGT is a real classic jar through the shim). Guards: test_rack_membership 48 (was 38; new floor/revert/default checks), test_tm_pattern_registration 20 (5 checks hard-coded the old default and were updated to assert the new one, with the TMPATTERN parity proof moved onto an explicit old-rack table), test_gun_harness 39, test_vbullet_metric 11, test_power_selection 3, test_adaptive_radar 41, test_tfil_ring_weights 24, test_power_policy 26, test_ram_decision 28, test_selector_tiebreak 19, test_tm_pattern_rack_live 4, test_tm_pattern_learning 3, acceptance_offline_vs_online 12/12 VERDICT PASS. ModularBot compiles. FOLLOW-ON THIS EXPOSED: membership filters SELECTION but not virtual-bullet SPAWNING, so under `onlyPattern` the 13 unselected guns still predict and spawn every tick. Tsetlin alone is ~5.3 ms/tick (~41% of the 13.16 ms per-tick budget), so we are still paying for it while never using it. Gating spawn on admission would reclaim that; it was deliberately NOT done here because it would alter the measurement protocol mid-A/B.

**SHIPPED DECISION (this change).** `DefaultRackMembership` in
|
||||
`common_libs/gun_harness/selector.nim` now admits **Pattern (id 5) and no other
|
||||
gun**. The launcher prints `[rack] active=PATTERN`; the selector's mechanism
|
||||
(`chooseFromFit`, the floor/band logic, hysteresis, the virtual-fitness
|
||||
plumbing) is **kept fully intact** — the rack simply has one member by default.
|
||||
This is a one-line revertible default, not a removal of selection.
|
||||
|
||||
**Exact revert to the old full rack** (no rebuild; `TMPATTERN` stays `off`):
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
TR_RACK_PATTERN=both TR_RACK_HEADON=both TR_RACK_LINEAR=both \
|
||||
TR_RACK_TSETLIN=both TR_RACK_CIRCULAR=both TR_RACK_GUESSFACTOR=both \

```
|
||||
|
||||
(Or leave every `TR_RACK_*` unset and use the empty-set fallback: setting all
|
||||
guns `off` makes `admittedGuns` return the full rack. The explicit one-liner
|
||||
above is preferred because it restores the real membership table.)

### Ship recommendation — SHIPPED

**`onlyPattern`** — `Pattern` alone, selector bypassed. Measured: **10.36% real hit rate, 264 damage/run**
|
||||
(vs `lean8` 6.31%/146 and `full` 6.93%/159). This replicates the original finding (10.78%/287).
|
||||
|
||||
**This recommendation is now the shipped default** (see the banner at the top of
|
||||
this document). `onlyPattern` was previously achieved with the rack knobs
|
||||
(`TR_RACK_<GUN>=off` for every gun but Pattern); as of this change it is the
|
||||
unset-environment default, and the same knobs restore any other rack. The
|
||||
selector mechanism is unchanged, so the A/B that produced the table above still
|
||||
reproduces byte-for-byte with the revert one-liner.
