- Improve Steam startup handling and update output pathsthe game attempts to auto-start Steam if it’s not running and exits if Steam starts successfully; clearer error messages added for failure cases; updated project output/publish paths to point to the main 'Guild of Hunters' folder.
- Simplify progression event label formattingremoved the map label from progression event strings in [c]ControlBattleResult[/c] and [c]BattleScene[/c]; event labels now include only location and index for clarity.
Fix last-hit detection in Character damage logic: replaced the health-based check with a [c]lastHit[/c] flag so last-hit logic triggers only when incoming damage exceeds current health, improving accuracy for death-related events and rewards.
