⚡ Faster Startup, Smaller Download
- Cold-start mount time 1754 ms → 706 ms (~2.5x faster).
- Main bundle 3018 kB → 1658 kB (gzip 807 → 465 kB) — downloads and updates are nearly half the size.
- Fonts ship as built-in subsets: no more Google Fonts fetch, so weak or restricted networks no longer stall the first screen.
- Traditional Chinese / English language packs now load on demand; the settings dialog mounts on first open.
🎨 All-New Item Icons
- Equipment, materials, pills and techniques switch from emoji to SVG vector icons, keeping the familiar rarity colors.
- Every item has its own shape: swords, sabers, spears, staves and axes are distinguishable at a glance; herbs, flowers, ores, ingots, gems and pills each have their own silhouette; technique tomes carry a type mark.
- Applied everywhere: inventory, equipment slots, shops, market, sect store, lottery, quest rewards and forging.
🔧 Fixes & Tuning
- Lifespan checks could be skipped while the game idled in the background (browser throttling) — lifespan expiry now always triggers reincarnation on time.
- Harvesting a withered cave-garden plot no longer grants a free herb (leftover of the v0.22.7 garden fix).
- Combo animation now uses requestAnimationFrame and the game loop runs on a single heartbeat — idling in the background costs less.
