Two ECS-native, deterministic namespaces for 2D motion, driven off the fixed
frame clock so replays and lockstep netcode reproduce every frame and every
eased value exactly. Both are pure computed-inline Q16.16 / integer math (no new
runtime, no heap) — the game stores a timer on a component and calls these each
frame, exactly the way Collision.* / Grid.* are used.
Anim.* — spritesheet frame animation:
- Anim.frame(timer,fps,count) -> int looping frame index
- Anim.once(timer,fps,count) -> int one-shot, clamps on the last frame
- Anim.pingpong(timer,fps,count) -> int bounce 0..count-1..0
- Anim.finished(timer,fps,count) -> bool has a one-shot run past its end?
- Anim.duration(fps,count) -> fixed seconds for one cycle
- Anim.cell_x/cell_y(frame,cols,cell) -> int source rect on a grid sheet
Tween.* — value interpolation over a timeline:
- Tween.progress/loop/yoyo(timer,duration) -> fixed normalized amount
- Tween.done(timer,duration) -> bool
- Tween.ease(t, mode) -> fixed shape by a literal curve 0..6,
the same curves as Ease.* (now
factored into a shared ease_eval)
- Tween.number/round/point/tint(from,to,t) blend a fixed / int / Vector / color
The typed blends reuse the existing fixed / Vector / color helpers, and
Tween.ease shares Ease.*'s exact formulas via the new ease_eval(mode,t) — one
source of truth for every easing curve in the engine.
examples/library/anim.ludic asserts 34 cases (frame math, clamping, ping-pong,
cell geometry, timeline clamp/loop/yoyo, rounding, color/vector blends, and
Ease.in == Tween.ease(.,1)); wired into x test (now 62 passed). Docs: Anim +
Tween sections with 16 per-symbol pages, inventory/coverage green. Seed
reseeded; the C-free bootstrap fixpoint holds.
The stateful sugar the proposal sketches (named clips, Anim.play, fluent
Tween.chain/parallel handles, and an auto-injected advance system) is deliberately
left as a follow-up — this lands the deterministic math core both halves stand on.

Split the flat 38-file selfhost/ into concern-based subdirectories:
frontend/ lex, parse, parse_game, ast
support/ str, buf, io
backend/ core IR + expression/statement lowering
backend/game/ ECS/scene/event/world lowering
backend/stdlib/ the namespaced Math.*/Text.*/Crypto.*/… intrinsics
and split the three oversized emitters at responsibility boundaries so
no file mixes concerns:
emit_game.ludic -> + emit_world.ludic (reflection world table,
tick helpers, @main synthesis)
emit_expr.ludic -> + emit_call.ludic (namespaced builtins, call
lowering, expr dispatch)
emit_text.ludic -> + emit_text_prelude.ludic (emitted string-builder runtime)
FRAGS in tools/x/selfhost.ludic is updated to the new paths with the link
order preserved, and the Python doc/vocabulary tooling is updated to walk
the new layout. Because the build is a plain in-order concatenation and
every split lands on a blank-line boundary, the regenerated seed is
byte-identical: `x reseed` leaves selfhost/ludicc.seed.ll unchanged,
`x bootstrap-cfree` still reaches its fixed point, and both `x test` (56)
and `x selfhost-test` (29, incl. golden renders) stay green.
Closes#29
