Improvements

  • Save files now include timestamps so the game always knows which copy of your progress is newest.

  • The one-time fix that corrects corrupted balances is now properly gated — it runs once and never fires again, instead of re-checking on every single load.

Misc

  • Introduced a migration marker to prevent the builder-correction pass from looping after it's already run.

  • Save format comparisons now normalize old-format vs. new-format scale before deciding which save file wins.
