**Twenty proposal or editorial packages have been completed today.** The latest finished at **19:23 Jerusalem time**: [Open Decisions](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Open%20Decisions). It gives one current account of the remaining concerns, with concrete examples and alternatives. Real criticism remains visible; stale reference questions and the missing original shift-comparison link are repaired. The new [astronaut comparison](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Who%20Is%20the%20Astronaut) arrived at **19:37** and is in independent review: two contrasting personalities through the same existing scenes, alongside a mostly silent alternative. The separate short-rescue choice remains open.

**Twenty-one proposal or editorial packages have been completed today.** The latest finished at **19:47 Jerusalem time**: [Who Is the Astronaut?](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Who%20Is%20the%20Astronaut). A repair pilot seeks a chosen home; a surveyor wants someone to share discoveries with. The same docking, build breakthrough and conversation show their differences, with a mostly silent alternative. All remain proposals. Systems is now comparing the existing disc-and-arc hybrid with a shot that could carry lightning around cover. The short-rescue choice remains open.
Start with [The Game](/Hold%20The%20Flood/The%20Game), continue through [three expeditions into the observation ward](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Expedition%20Proposal), then [Coming Home](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Coming%20Home) and [Discovery in a Changing Station](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Connecting%20The%20Station). For combat, follow [Hordes and Builds](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Hordes%20and%20Builds) into [Three Ways to Break a Horde](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Build%20Comparison).

Each package received one focused critique, one response and PM checks. These are completed design proposals, not tested gameplay. The new Ricochet and Gravity controls remain proposed alternatives to the current detailed equipment rules. The two renewed-route examples do not yet cover every shifted layout or combination of permanent seals.

Read the scene in [Hordes and Builds](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Hordes%20and%20Builds), with placement in [Moving Scan Expedition](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Moving%20Scan%20Expedition). Its added rail, viewing bay, bridge and receiver make a fourteenth proposed major mechanism; physical fit and fun remain untested. The new Receiver Vault proposal tackles a different risk: a later expedition must deliver growing power and a horde climax before its quiet discovery. It uses the existing vault rooms, enemies and machinery; the new reward opportunity remains a proposal. Earlier rescue and station-completion comparisons are ready for owner reaction.

The tracker contains **83 outcomes: 79 preparation outcomes closed, 1 current outcome, 1 readiness assessment reopened and 2 parked**. The completed preservation audit and its corrections belong within outcome 38; they do not close overall readiness. These counts are not a percentage of the finished game. Outcomes 39–40 remain parked and unaccepted pending the core corrections.

The temporary GPT writer has submitted the character comparison and stopped; its separate reviewer is working from independently saved criteria. Systems has completed the hospital pass. This is a messaging observation, not a judgment about the apps' health. No new permanent agent or manual forwarding is needed for this work.

The character-comparison estimate has moderate confidence: the draft is complete and its single independent critique is underway. Any response and final integration remain. The full-wiki estimate has low confidence. The campaign date has very low confidence and remains a planning allowance pending a fresh content estimate. None promises development, validated fun or the desired number of playable hours; those require a separately authorized phase.

The equipment-comparison estimate has moderate confidence. Systems has begun; the new interaction still needs to be worked through and compared with the simpler existing hybrid. Independent criteria are ready. The full-wiki estimate has low confidence. The campaign date has very low confidence and remains a planning allowance pending a fresh content estimate.

The pre-pause targets were 15 September for the readable wiki and 17 November for detailed campaign design. Five paused calendar days and the outside review's core-loop findings moved those dates. F2.36 records the astronaut draft delivered at 19:37, earlier than its 20:30 target, and advances the reviewed comparison from 21:30 to 20:30. The decision guide completed at 19:23, ahead of its revised 20:00 target. The astronaut comparison addresses a gap left by more detailed machines and survivor scenes: what this person wanted before docking, what they enjoy and what could challenge their values. It uses existing events and leaves the revival mystery and pending owner choices open. The overall dates remain unchanged because broader experience coverage, supporting clarity and consequential creative choices still need work. Earlier estimates and reasons remain in revision history and the forecast checkpoint.

The pre-pause targets were 15 September for the readable wiki and 17 November for detailed campaign design. Five paused calendar days and the outside review's core-loop findings moved those dates. F2.37 records the astronaut comparison completed at 19:47, ahead of its revised 20:30 target, and adds the equipment interaction comparison. That new proposal addresses whether familiar parts can produce a surprising relationship and a more spectacular horde payoff, rather than simply operate beside one another. Existing team restrictions can be reconsidered, with changes and costs explained. The overall dates remain unchanged because broader experience coverage, supporting clarity and consequential creative choices still need work. Earlier estimates and reasons remain in revision history and the forecast checkpoint.
