HEXCRAWL Early Access — Patch 0.9.16

Vault: Drag matching stacks onto each other in the vault (or between your bags and the vault) to combine them. Partial stacks no longer swap or vanish when you try to merge.

Death reclaim: Loot All now picks up backpacks and satchels first, then the rest of your gear — so reclaiming after death does not fill your pockets and leave your bags behind.

Map: Hexes you stand on stay revealed. Charted coasts stay clear when you sail away (the sea itself was always visible; island land no longer greys out as if exploration was erased).

Delve ammo crates: Ammunition crates now yield one to three full stacks of arrows or bolts instead of a single shot.

Craft profession books: Alchemy ledgers, forge manuals, and the other craft survey books are reference catalogues — not recipe books. Opening one grants a one-time +1 Mastery in that profession; recipes still come from scrolls, formulas, teachers, and finds.

Hints & Tips: Item and recipe name colors explained (Mundane through Legendary). Notes added for vault stack merging, coastal map memory, and craft-book mastery.

UI: Fixes so open bags no longer steal clicks from the book reader, Tips, and Journal Close buttons.
