At the beginning of phase 2, we weren’t sure what to do about constraints. Based on past exploration, constraints seemed to hold a lot of promise but were notoriously unreliable. A good constraint system could unify and power a number of key aspects of the dynamic medium we seek. It would allow for mechanical constructions, like a rope and pulley, that feel physically correct.
