Precursors v0.4.45: The Ship Stirs

Something shifted in this release. The ship feels more present now — not in a way we can explain through patch notes, but in the way it responds to what happens aboard. Damage matters. When something breaks, the ship reacts. When something gets repaired, there's a story to it — repair songs, teaching moments between the creatures who fix things. The ship remembers what happened to it.

On the practical side, we eliminated a class of audio 404 errors that were causing timeouts on the loading screen. Species whose songs hadn't been composed yet (Mycon, Grendel, Ettin) were being queued for playback anyway. Now the audio system only loads what actually exists, and baby sounds lazy-load after the world is already running.

The admin CMS got drag-drop MP3 uploads and better species navigation for the lore editors working behind the scenes. Small thing for players, big thing for the team building out the musical traditions of each species.
