TriggerX provides generic threshold-based steering for CarpetX-style runtime scalars and arrays. It is intended for cases where a condition on a variable or parameter should change a scalar before CarpetX regridding runs, for example to add a BoxInBox refinement level once a lapse threshold is crossed. For CarpetX grid functions, TriggerX uses CarpetX's internal reduction machinery instead of the legacy Cactus reduction handles. Supported grid function reductions are: - `minimum` - `maximum` - `sum` - `sum_abs` - `sum_squared` - `average` - `standard_deviation` - `volume` - `norm1` - `norm2` - `norm_inf` - `maximum_abs` Current reactions: - `steerscalar` - `steerparam` The thorn runs at `postinitial` and `poststep` before `EstimateError`, so updates to `BoxInBox::num_levels`, `BoxInBox::radius`, or similar runtime scalars are visible to the same regridding pass. Example: ``` ActiveThorns = "TriggerX BoxInBox" TriggerX::trigger_number = 1 TriggerX::trigger_debug = 1 TriggerX::trigger_checked_variable[0] = "ADMBase::alp" TriggerX::trigger_reduction[0] = "minimum" TriggerX::trigger_relation[0] = ">" TriggerX::trigger_checked_value[0] = 0.01 TriggerX::trigger_reaction[0] = "steerscalar" TriggerX::trigger_steered_scalar[0] = "BoxInBox::num_levels[0]" TriggerX::trigger_steered_scalar_index[0] = 0 TriggerX::trigger_steered_scalar_value[0] = "13" ``` For array targets such as `BoxInBox::radius`, use the flattened array index in `trigger_steered_scalar_index`. For BoxInBox this is `level + 30 * region`.
