Important Optimization Updates:
We have optimized and upgraded the project with quality-preserving improvements:
1. Streamlined RAM usage reduced to 40% of previous versions, significantly minimizing memory-related crashes/blue screens.
2. Frame rate boosted by 20-50% (varies by hardware configuration).
3. Enhanced compatibility for low-VRAM GPUs (integrated graphics with outdated interfaces or insufficient VRAM may still encounter issues).
Other Updates/Fixes:
1. Added UI markers for thrown spears.
2. Adjusted torch placement to minimize visual obstruction.
3. Implemented companion creature growth system:
- Pre-update fully matured companions remain unchanged
- Partially matured companions gain full growth after one level-up
- Final size/power depends on accumulated points and initial size (enables super-sized/strong companions).
4. Full material refunds for demolished structures (partial refund if structure health is low).
5. Fixed hay being heavier than fresh grass in weight calculations.
6. Added frame rate cap:
- Default limit: 120 FPS
- Vertical sync enabled: 60 FPS cap
