Calculate energy (deviation from targets)

Usage

calc_energy(
  metrics,
  targets,
  weights,
  trees = NULL,
  nurse_distance = 3,
  use_nurse_effect = TRUE
)

Arguments

metrics: Current stand metrics
targets: Target parameters
weights: Weights for each component
trees: Current trees (for nurse tree calc)
nurse_distance: Target nurse tree distance
use_nurse_effect: Whether to include nurse tree energy

Value

Total energy (lower is better)

All metrics are normalized to relative errors so weights range 0-100: 0 = ignore this metric 1-20 = low priority 20-50 = moderate priority 50-80 = high priority 80-100 = critical (will dominate optimization)
