Building a snail one organ at a time
I think enough of the SnailLife Go infrastructure is ready now for me to start digging into the snail itself. In the PHP draft of SnailLife, I started with a basic concept of a snail “Here’s a snail. All it has is a name, size, and speed” and then made it more and more complex. By the end I had a model that had organs, genes, a reproductive system, macro/micro nutrient requirements, locomotion, a brain with memories, mood, etc. With the Go rewrite I have the luxury of hindsight and a vision based on the draft. I know roughly where I want to end up - “organs, genes, a reproductive system, macro/micro nutrient requirements, locomotion, a brain with memories, mood, etc.”
Are YOU experiencing shady output from your Go debugger? Try these things!
A couple of days ago I noticed some unreliable output when stepping through the SnailLife server. I use GoLand and Delve debugger, but in the course of looking into this I picked up some tips from trial and error plus from some very helpful people which I think might be useful regardless of the debugger you use.

Overview
In Part 1 we talked about the general setup of the world/grid and what the Agent and Instructions metamodels do. We left off at the part where the grid sends a copy of itself to whatever observer channels it has (currently just the aggregationObserver). So in this part we can go over my very rudimentary version of the “ORM Intentionaliser”.
