New mechanics — fields are now perturbed BY their own physics, not decorated with separate objects:
WAVEPACKETS — local Gaussian perturbation of the cubic+schlegel lattices around a centre. Vertices push radially outward (positive amplitude) or inward (negative — a "dimple"). The "particle" IS a feature of the field, not an object placed on it. Schrödinger localised-particle made geometric.
RIPPLES — concentric expanding wavefronts from a source point; each ring a many-segmented polyline; renderer's propagator decoration applies to each chord. The visible signature of a perturbation propagating outward.
Denser cubic (cubicN=2 → 125 vertices / ~300 edges) at thin strokes — more grid lines so the wavepacket bulges read clearly.
