This corrective release keeps complex physical scenes causal without making
their machinery genre-specific. Multi-action declarations retain their actual
order across reactions, perception and narration; dialogue stays in its
original slot; rejected prerequisites cannot leak their dependent effects into
state; and contact, pose, target and substance updates keep the body and object
they belong to.

Character perception now retains complete current sensation and the full
visible appearance of other people while omitting only redundant self-card
description. Autobiographical memory uses a consistent first-person
perspective. Narration receives one ordered event package, preserves the
player's question/answer order, rejects undelivered dialogue, and screens
repetitive sensor-ledger phrasing before it reaches the page.

Substances gain qualitative conservation and transfer, contact actions remain
open-ended physical relations, and speech formation reflects an occupied or
engaged mouth without baking restraint, consent, morality or any other
personality trait into the agent. Finally, attire exposure is durable across
later wardrobe changes: a revealed authored body surface is not forgotten by
an unrelated change of clothing, and a phrase such as bare feet can no longer
be invented as a garment.
