Determinism, Time and Debugging

What it covers

• Deterministic galaxy
• Time and memory
• Event history
• Request processing
• Debuggable state

Overview

Return Echo benefits from deterministic systems because many events depend on timing, state and delayed information. Clear ordering makes it easier to understand what happened and why.

Why it matters

A complex simulation needs trust. If the same state produces the same result, bugs are easier to find and emergent behaviour is easier to explain.
