ludic.base's Queue<T> carries a QueueTag (its name and pending count): queue_new(name), q_push(q, v),
q_drain(q), q_clear(q) take no BaseState, and core_undrained(tags) names the given queues still holding
facts. A reducer on a package's state can now call that package's verbs (wallet_earn(wallet_st, n)).
ludic migrate state --prune (ludicc --migrate-prune) takes out each state parameter a function no
longer uses, nor anything it calls, and the argument that fills it - including an argument for a
parameter the callee has dropped, which is taken out before the call is checked, so a generic's T is
told by the argument that says it. A reducer keeps its state. --dry-run now counts the edits it would
make. Every package was moved with it: 608 base_st parameters and their arguments, 1889 edits.

It lowered to an i32 compare of two pointers, which the IR refused. Two strings with the same text
are equal now, a null only to a null, and a failure says expect_eq failed (got "camp", want
"lake"). examples/library/testing_strings.ludic (two tests fail on purpose, and the output is
checked); ludic.base's actions_test uses it again.

action Name { fields } is a typed record; reducer State on Action(s: mut State, a: Action) { ... }
in the module that owns the state takes exactly that state and the action (a second state is
refused); dispatch Action { fields } queues one from anywhere, the queue supplied by the runtime.
The queue is drained at the end of every phase of the frame loop, after every phase of ludic.base's
core_tick_all, and by drain_actions(): in dispatch order, each action's reducers in the order of
their states' names, an action a reducer dispatches queued behind, a queue still growing after 64
rounds stopped with the action named. Examples actions/pack, phases, runaway; rejects for a second
state, a reducer on a non-action and an unknown dispatch; ludic.base's actions_test; LANGUAGE.md.

ludic.clock, .effects, .inventory, .wallet, .weather and .tracks say
'uses ludic_base' (ludic.base uses nothing). ClockWorld, PackRules,
WeatherWorld and TracksWorld are export ports whose defaults are the old
fallbacks; clock_bind, inv_bind, weather_bind and tracks_bind are gone,
and the tests bind their fakes. The base README's toy does the same.

The runner's list starts from the declared systems, in the order the
compiler gives an open registry, and core_add appends after them.
registry_test covers it; the README says ludic test runs the package.

ludic.effects: effects_add / effects_add_after / effects_clear / effects_run,
effects_sum / effects_has / effects_at / effects_live, an EffectEnded queue
(ran out, pushed out by the bonus cap, crowded out of a full ring) and a
System with its own save section. Nine test blocks in tests/effects_test.ludic.
ludic.base: q_new collided with render3d's quaternion q_new the moment a game
imported both, so the queue constructor is queue_new.

A mechanic package depends on ludic.base and nothing else: ports (records of
function values for now) for questions, queues for facts, verbs for changes,
phases for order and its own versioned save section. The runner inits, resets,
saves and loads systems in the order added and ticks them phase by phase; a
missing save section is a reset. Tests for each piece and a worked route
between two toy mechanics live under tests/. The old ludic.core (engine ECS
components) is used by examples/library and stays.
