# Shortcut Forcing

## Shortcut Forcing

A Dreamer4 innovation to preserve long-term stability:

* Reduces compounding prediction errors in long rollouts.
* Forces temporal consistency across 32–128 frames.
* Helps maintain accurate spatial coherence in physical simulations (e.g., robotics or Minecraft mining).

This mechanism enables Dreamer4 to sustain world-model rollouts up to **60 simulated seconds** without collapse.
