nx_print_sim.nx -- military/aerospace-grade print simulator, FIRST STONE. ===================================================================== CARDINAL (2026-05-20): "real life simulation like the military or aircraft do where we can simulate a print with settings in hyperspeed to see what issues will happen in reality with those settings none of this guesswork bullshit" Bar: simulate the entire print at hyperspeed (24h Christus print evaluated in seconds) and emit predicted failures with cause + location + magnitude. No heuristics; real physics throughout. 12-18 sessions to military-grade per the cardinal. Modeled physics roadmap (none of which industry slicers do at slice-time): - Thermal: hotend + bed + chamber + cooling-fan heat diffusion - Mechanical: bridge sag + pillar buckling + adhesion stress - Flow: pressure advance + viscosity + max-flow ceiling - Adhesion: first-layer adhesion + warp force vs bed-grip - Kinematic: input-shaping residual + ringing + collision detect FIRST STONE (this file): state tracking + ONE real physical invariant: HOTEND MAX-FLOW CEILING. Volumetric flow rate (width × height × speed in mm³/s) is a real physical limit (hotend power budget); exceeding it predicts underextrusion. Industry slicers CLAMP speed proactively against the parameter; we SIMULATE what would happen if user-supplied G-code exceeded it. Per [[feedback-exceed-means-superior-capability-not-toy-parameter-addition]]: this primitive earns the EXCEED label only when it correctly predicts a real-print failure that industry slicers miss. Today it's a TRUE check (real physics) but the simulator-as-capability is at the first stone -- EXCEED claim is for the full integrated simulator that lands across the 12-18 session arc. ===================================================================== license_tier: ORIGINAL
