# EXP001 — Two-Click Foundations

**Status:** Ongoing  
**Public documentation status:** Draft  
**Media status:** No public viewing copies are currently catalogued for EXP001; candidate footage awaits file-level reconciliation

## Objective

Determine whether two-click foundations can be created and extended entirely within the unmodified *The Sims 2* build engine without using LotAdjuster.

## Current State

The experiment produced useful observations, but the evidence set has not yet been reconciled or reduced to a final documented demonstration.

The short built-in-recorder tests previously grouped with this experiment are now classified as EXP000. They assess the recording method and must not be used to imply a conclusion for EXP001.

Any local footage that genuinely documents the foundation procedure must be mapped separately before publication. Working material, incidental audio and incomplete commentary must be edited non-destructively, with the untouched originals retained and an edit log supplied.

No final conclusion should be inferred from this draft record.

## Initial Observations

To be completed from the working notes and recording review.

## Procedure

To be reconstructed and documented precisely enough for an independent builder to reproduce.

## Conclusions

Pending.

## New Questions Generated

See the related research-journal question record.

## Media

The canonical repository must be reviewed before relying on its older media mapping:

- [`08 Assets/Videos/README.md`](../../08%20Assets/Videos/README.md)
- [`08 Assets/Videos/Inventory.md`](../../08%20Assets/Videos/Inventory.md)

## Recruitment Dependency

A Video Editor Specialist is the immediate recruitment priority for preparing the public evidence package.
