fix(dist): simulate fixed-vector parameters with their values - #1503
A parameter fixed to a vector (v=np.array(...)) reaches Bambi and the RV as the scalar 0.0. Only HSSMDistribution.logp() put the vector back, so sample_posterior_predictive, sample_prior_predictive and sample_do simulated every row with 0.0, without a warning.
make_hssm_rv now takes the fixed vectors, and rng_fn simulates with them, broadcast against the other parameters, one value per row in the model's row order. The model graph and the likelihood do not change.
sample_posterior_predictive(data=...) with kind="response" raises a ValueError for such models, unless data is the model's own data (the plotting functions pass model.data).
Question for maintainers: for new rows I chose an error. Two alternatives: read the fixed values from a column of data named after the parameter (new API), or accept any data with as many rows (silently wrong when the rows differ, or after missing_data moves them). Happy to change it.
Tests
With t fixed to 0.2 and 1.5 on alternate rows, every simulated rt must exceed its own row's t: posterior predictive (with and without data=model.data), prior predictive, and rng_fn directly. Another test checks the error on new rows. The four new tests fail on main; removing the substitution or the check makes them fail again.
Several open PRs also add a changelog entry at the end of 0.5.1; whichever merges later renumbers.

Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Predictive simulations now use fixed parameter values for the corresponding data rows.
Bug Fixes
Response predictions using new data now return a clear error when a fixed-vector parameter has no values for those rows. Predictions using the model’s data and response-parameter predictions remain available.
Documentation
Updated the changelog with guidance to repeat predictive checks for affected models.
…own#1453)
A parameter fixed to a vector reaches Bambi, and so the RV, as a scalar
0.0 placeholder; only HSSMDistribution.logp() put the vector back.
sample_posterior_predictive, sample_prior_predictive and sample_do
therefore simulated every row with 0.0 for that parameter.
- make_hssm_rv takes the fixed vectors, and rng_fn simulates with them,
broadcast against the other parameters, one value per row.
- sample_posterior_predictive(data=...) with kind="response" raises a
ValueError for such models unless data is the model's own data, since
the vector has no values for other rows.
- Add tests and changelog item 24.

Fixed-vector parameters now reach simulator-backed predictive sampling in model-row order. Response-kind posterior prediction raises ValueError when supplied data differs from model data and the model has fixed-vector parameters.

Summary
Pass fixed vectors into simulator sampling src/hssm/distribution_utils/dist.py, src/hssm/param/params.py, tests/distribution_utils/test_distribution_utils.py
Distribution construction passes fixed vectors to make_hssm_rv. Its rng_fn substitutes these vectors before simulator sampling and raises a descriptive ValueError for incompatible shapes. Tests check predictive draws and mismatched observation counts.
Guard response predictions on different data src/hssm/base.py, tests/test_sample_posterior_predictive.py, docs/changelog.md
Response-kind posterior prediction raises ValueError if supplied data differs from model data while fixed-vector parameters are present. Tests cover predictions using model data and the rejection of new data. The changelog records the sampling behavior and restriction.
Predictive simulation now uses fixed-vector parameter values, which fixes the earlier scalar-placeholder behavior. Models with interleaved missing-RT rows can still silently simulate with fixed values from the wrong rows. A fixed-vector lapse probability can also make posterior predictive sampling fail. Both should be addressed before merging.

Full details: Title check
Explanation
The title "fix(dist): simulate fixed-vector parameters with their values" matches the main change. The PR passes fixed vectors into make_hssm_rv and uses them in rng_fn so simulations use each row's value instead of the 0.0 placeholder. The title is specific and follows the conventional-commit style. The PR also adds a ValueError for out-of-sample response prediction, but that is a secondary guard and does not need to appear in the title.
Full details: Linked Issues check
Explanation
Issue #1453 is the only active direct target. Its coding requirements are: (1) simulate each row of a parameter fixed to a vector with that row's value in sample_posterior_predictive and sample_prior_predictive, instead of 0.0; (2) avoid silently wrong predictive checks. The change addresses both. make_hssm_rv accepts fixed_vector_params (src/hssm/distribution_utils/dist.py), and rng_fn substitutes the vectors, broadcast against other parameters in row order. The summary places this in the simulator path only, leaving logp and the model graph unchanged. The silent-error requirement is covered by a ValueError in HSSMBase.sample_posterior_predictive when kind="response" is requested with new data for a model with fixed-vector parameters. The issue names the new-data length mismatch as a design question and gives no acceptance criterion for it, so the chosen error is a reasonable resolution. Tests cover posterior predictive (default and model.data), prior predictive, direct rng_fn, and the new-data error (tests/distribution_utils/test_distribution_utils.py, tests/test_sample_posterior_predictive.py). Evidence is the PR summary and description; I did not run the tests or read the hunks. Other simulator paths (LAN, blackbox) are checked by script only, per the PR, and are not verified in the repository here.
Full details: Out of Scope Changes check
Explanation
All changed files map to the objective in #1453: src/hssm/distribution_utils/dist.py (vector substitution in simulator RV and signature), src/hssm/base.py (new-data check for kind="response"), src/hssm/param/params.py (comment update on rng_fn substitution), and tests in two test files. The changelog entry in docs/changelog.md (+2 lines) documents the behavior change and the new error, which supports the fix. The PR description refers to #1455 and #1451 only as related work. It does not add their code, so no out-of-scope code from those PRs is claimed here. No unrelated change is demonstrated in the summary.

- Line 363: Update the fixed-vector assignment to arg_arrays[idx] so each vector
is reordered with the same data-row permutation applied to the observations
before simulation. Reuse the existing permutation and preserve the vector
values’ alignment with their corresponding rows.
- Around line 370-372: In the fixed-vector broadcasting branch, broadcast the
extracted `p_outlier` to the predictive batch shape alongside the simulator
parameters before `_apply_lapse_model()` uses it. Preserve the six-element
vector across predictive draws so it matches parameters shaped `(1, 3, 6)`
without changing other broadcasting behavior.

rng_fn takes p_outlier out of the parameters before broadcasting them, so a
p_outlier fixed to a vector kept its (n_obs,) shape and _apply_lapse_model
could not reshape it to the draws. Broadcast it to the same shape, and test
that each row gets its own lapse probability.
