Remove guns/bitbrain_net.nim (+README), test_bitbrain_net.nim,
measure_bitbrain_scaling.nim, rack id 17 and all of its plumbing in
selector.nim / ModularBot.nim / env_report.nim, the TR_BITBRAIN_NET switch
and the NEW-NETWORK TR_BITBRAIN_* knobs, and the BitBrainNet arm of
run_prediction_quality.nim.
With id 17 gone there is nothing to disambiguate, so the legacy namespace
becomes the ONLY one: TR_RACK_BITBRAIN always selects id 16 LEADGAIN and
every TR_BITBRAIN_<X> in the frozen 14-suffix alias set always means
TR_LEADGAIN_<X>. The alias layer and its [depr] line stay.
KEPT: the common_libs/bitbrain/ SBC library (learned_surfer imports
bitbrain/sbc), lead_gain at id 16 with env TR_LEADGAIN_* and log tag [lg],
and the c9b6753 crash fix (NumRackGuns widths + test_rack_stat_width).
Tombstone: docs/bitbrain_campaign.md ## RETIRED and one cross-reference line
in docs/gun_campaign.md. Shipped defaults unchanged: clean env -> rack
active 1v1 = PATTERN, movement default strafe.
REGRESSION: the live bot stopped firing entirely and moved degenerately
whenever a rack admitted rack id 17 (the ADE+SBC BITBRAIN gun added in
e9302bc).
ROOT CAUSE: ModularBot.nim declared the per-gun accounting arrays
(gunRealShots / gunRealHits / gunRealShotsByMode / gunRealHitsByMode /
gunSelectionCount) as array[17, int] — the rack size BEFORE id 17 existed.
The instant the selector picked gun 17, the accounting indexed one past
the end:
* debug build -> IndexDefect out of run(): the bot stops, 0 shots;
* -d:release (shipped) -> silent out-of-bounds write onto the adjacent
lastPowerLogKey: string header, so the bot kept moving but never
fired and never reported a shot.
Measured with the owner's exact out/.env, 1v1 SittingDuck:
0dc5552 (pre-rename): BitBrain(id16) selected 356+157 ticks,
realShots 24+9, realHits 23+9, ModularBot wins 180/360
HEAD (e9302bc..) : selected 0, vShots 0, realShots 0, realHits 0
debug : IndexDefect on the first tick that selects id 17
-d:release : same 0/0/0, bot scores 22 and dies
FIX: derive every gun-indexed width from the rack instead of a literal.
gun_harness/selector exports NumRackGuns* = len(RackGunNames) (18);
ModularBot uses it for the five accounting arrays, the per-round reset
loops, the gun_stats.jsonl dump loop, the table and
initTracker(). Shipped defaults unchanged: clean env is still the
onlyPattern rack and movement is still strafe.
GUARD: common_libs/tests/test_rack_stat_width.nim (24 checks) — rack
table shape, a source scan proving no gun-indexed width/loop bound is
narrower than NumRackGuns, an in-process accounting replay that would
have overflowed array[17], and the legacy-namespace checks (id 16 via
TR_RACK_BITBRAIN, id 17 never admitted while legacy). It reports 7
failures on the pre-fix ModularBot.nim and passes after. Optional
--live section proves a rack admitting only the newest id fires and
lands hits.
Parity: test_env_report 25, test_rack_membership 49, test_lead_gain_
registration 13, test_lead_gain_legacy 24, test_bitbrain_net 44,
test_gun_harness 39, test_tfil_commit_env 30, test_bitbrain 56,
test_tm_pattern_registration 20 — all unchanged, 0 failures.
