Demo Mod — quality → affixes / wells / Artifact / name locks

Status: Implemented (mock) · 2026-10-26
Authority: FS-GUN-012 Demo ladder (sandbox; Full-game Rare ≤3+3 remains FS-ITM-002 until a Full-game pass)

Hard cap 6 wells (FS Inspect). Demo defaults open wells by Quality (no Bore spend):

Quality	Prefix	Suffix	Rule	Default open wells	Artifact	Unique name	Display Name
Common	0	0	—	2	locked	locked	locked · Type only
Uncommon	1	1	xor — one prefix OR one suffix	2	locked	locked	locked · affix-built
Augmented	1	1	both	3	locked	locked	locked · affix-built
Rare	2	2	both	4	locked	locked	locked · First + Second Word (GDD lexicon)
Legendary	3	3	both	5	locked	editable hand-authored	locked · mirrors Unique name
Unique	3	3	both	6	editable	editable hand-authored	locked · mirrors Unique name
Apex	3	3	both	6	editable	editable hand-authored	locked · mirrors Unique name

Legendary ≠ Rare lexicon. L/U/Apex are hand-authored packages (designer nameplate / Unique spreadsheet). Rare alone uses GDD vol.04 First Word (shared) + Second Word (family-gated).

Field locks (Quality)

• Name — always RO in Mod. Never free-typed.
• Unique name — editable only Legendary / Unique / Apex; locked below.
• Affix rows — only as many as Quality allows. Uncommon locks the other side once one side has a name.
• Artifact — Unique / Apex only; locked otherwise.
• Type · Quality · kit · plate · wells (0–6 sandbox) stay editable.

Persist / reopen

clampAffixesForQuality runs on draft open, Quality change, affix edit, OK commit, and every list/load merge (applyCommittedOv). Stale 3rd Rare rows / dual Uncommon fills cannot survive a reopen.

Name modes

Quality	Mode
Common / Uncommon / Augmented	Affix-built: Prefix… Type of Suffix…
Rare	GDD lexicon: First Word + Second Word (Stats dropdowns; Second Word pool from seat/type family)
Legendary / Unique / Apex	Hand-authored Unique name field (not First/Second Word)
