Our lead operator got a full portrait makeover. She's warmer, friendlier, and a whole lot more put-together:
New face, new attitude. Traded the perma-grumpy sultry glare for lifted brows and a soft, closed-mouth smile. Still cool, just no longer mad at you.
Designer eyewear. Slim near-black oval frames (the gold's gone), with her hair fringe draping naturally in front of the lenses and temple arms tucked behind a side-lock. Earrings repositioned to actually sit on the earlobe.
Minor wardrobe fixes, and smoother shading.
All scoped to Overcharger. The other six operators look exactly as they did.
🔍 Peek at the board mid-draft. A new "HIDE DRAFT PANEL" button (top-right) tucks the card overlay away so you can study the map and inspect your placed towers before committing. Your run stays paused (we'll remind you with a banner), and tower tooltips work while you look around.
⏪ Slow down on demand. Right-click the speed button to step game speed down (left-click still steps up). Both directions wrap around, so you can fine-tune the pace however you like.
Tooltip off-screen clipping. When your premium/upgrade tray gets long, hovering a low card no longer pushes its tooltip off the bottom of the screen. It now flips and lifts to stay fully visible.
Wildfire performance. Optimized burn/trail processing on heavy waves (hoisted redundant per-enemy calculations, swapped expensive distance math for cheaper checks). Same behavior, lighter frames when the screen's on fire.
