Previously two distance-only clues whose circles didn't actually
intersect (real typewriter data isn't perfectly consistent, a
misplaced spotter or an off-by-a-bit distance reading is enough) just
gave up entirely, even when they were nearly touching.
solver.closest_compromise_point() picks the midpoint between each
circle's point facing the other, the standard notion of the closest
approach between two circles. It stays well-behaved even when the
centers are nearly coincident, unlike projecting along the center
line the way a real intersection's formula does, which diverges as
the centers get close while the radii stay far apart, exactly the
near-coincident case this is for.
The result is flagged rather than treated as a clean fix: Location
gained a field, set whenever solve_location() had to use this
fallback, cleared by any subsequent coord.setter call (manual or
solver), shown in the entity's status label and toasted after a
manual clue edit. Persisted through save/load.
Circle-circle intersection (and the other solvable shapes) already
worked correctly, verified with a direct test: two distance-only
clues resolve to potential_coords whenever the two circles actually
cross. What was missing was feedback when they don't, e.g. two
distances that put one circle entirely inside the other given the
references' real positions looks identical, from the dialog's
perspective, to a reference that's just not placed yet.
solver.explain_unresolved() distinguishes 'waiting on <ref> for a
known position' from 'these two readings are geometrically
inconsistent', wired into _apply_and_refresh's toast after a manual
Description-tab edit.
A ScoutFlight anchors to the center of whatever large grid square the
cursor is in, with its bearing read off where in that square the
cursor actually sits, decoupling a clean anchor point from fine
direction control. The plotted rectangle extends 0.92km back and
13.04km forward along that bearing, 1.21km to each side
(solver.scout_flight_corners), previewed live while placing (see
GridCanvas.start_scout_flight_placement) and drawn as a filled
rectangle once committed.
New 'Scout Flights' header dropdown lists them with replot/hide/remove
per entry, plus a header button to plan a new one. Wired into
Board.clear() and save/load (SAVE_FORMAT_VERSION bumped to 3, old
saves load fine via the new key's default).
Board.clear() drops the Nest position, spotters, reference points, and
targets; wired to a header button behind a confirm dialog since it's
not reversible.
The clipboard-watch toggle connects to Gdk.Clipboard's 'changed'
signal and re-runs the merge-all OCR flow automatically whenever the
clipboard gains new image content, skipping non-image changes (e.g.
text copied elsewhere) so it doesn't spam toasts. Off by default.
Disconnected on window destroy.
'Target is at- Q4 4:2' (no #id, unlike the usual block shape) is how
the game's very first order gives the target. Store it as a fixed
(UNKNOWN, "1") entry since there's only ever one.
Same style fix applied to the README earlier, extended everywhere:
replaced " -- " with commas/colons/periods (picking whichever reads
right per occurrence, splitting into two sentences where the clauses
were independent), fixed a few user-facing strings along the way
(entity list rows, placement/strike toasts, ambiguous-candidate tag,
shell picker button label). Left three intentional non-prose uses
alone: the "unassigned" dash glyph in firing_panel.py (and its
docstring diagram), and ocr.py's dash-variant regex character class,
which needs to literally match em/en-dashes in OCR'd text.
Also caught and fixed a stale models.py docstring claiming "no solver
yet" (solver.py has existed for a while) while touching that
paragraph anyway, and a formatting artifact in coord_dialog.py's
docstring left by the sed pass (misaligned comma from a since-removed
alignment gap).
Verified: py_compile across all files, the 9-screenshot OCR
regression sweep, and a GTK smoke test exercising the edited
toast/placement code paths.

IRON NEST (the game's own name, e.g. NEST_KEYWORD in ocr.py) is left
untouched, only our own project/app naming changed. Verified: clean
import under the new module path, install.sh still builds the venv
correctly, and the OCR regression sweep (9 known screenshots) still
passes.

install.sh creates a --system-site-packages venv (so it can still see
the system-installed PyGObject bindings, which pip can't build
reliably) and pip-installs the rest of requirements.txt into it.
Checks for PyGObject (GTK4 + libadwaita) and tesseract up front and
prints per-distro package hints if either is missing, rather than
failing deep into pip install. run.sh now prefers .venv/bin/python3
when it exists, falling back to system python3 otherwise. README gets
an Install section describing this.

Shorter pitch focused on what the app actually automates for the
player: screenshot orders -> geo puzzle + trajectory solved -> ready
fire commands; screenshot the field log -> kills/new contacts picked
up automatically; strike planning with blast-radius preview. Mentions
the map's geometric derivation overlays and ambiguous-intersection
handling. Drops the old deep technical dump in favor of pointing at
code comments for internals. Adds icon.png (used in the header) and
showcase.png (embedded screenshot); icon_alt.png kept as an unused
alternate for now.

GTK4/libadwaita desktop helper for IRON NEST: Heavy Turret Simulator.
Reads clipboard screenshots of the game's typewriter orders via Tesseract
OCR, parses absolute/relative entity positions, geometrically resolves
relative bearing/distance clues into map coordinates, and provides a
firing-commands sidebar with real ballistics (elevation/azimuth/powder
charge). Screen-reading only — no game files touched, no input injected.
- models.py: Board/Nest/Spotter/ReferencePoint/Target data model
- ocr.py: Tesseract preprocessing + typewriter-text parsing
- solver.py: bearing/distance geometric resolution (4 solvable shapes)
plus position-based dedup for generic contacts later identified more
specifically at the same resolved coord
- ballistics.py / shells.py: elevation/azimuth/charge math, shell types
- grid_widget.py: interactive map canvas (hidden entities and,
optionally, dead targets are excluded from the map view entirely
unless selected)
- firing_panel.py: drag-reorderable firing-command sidebar
- app.py: main window wiring it all together
