Highlighting armor or weapons in the backpack now color-codes stats vs. what’s equipped: green if better, red if worse (quality, stats, abilities, GPU proc).

The equipment panel now shows more item info for equipment.

Save & Load

Maps are regenerated from seed on load, but blended biomes weren’t always recreated with the same parameters. We now store the full blend data when a map is first generated, so reloading (or cache eviction) should put you back in the correct biome.
The in-game player and the equipment panel could look different after a load. Both now rebuild from the same saved customization data on load.
Fixed a bug with entity positions. If the window size differed at load time, things could land slightly off-grid.
Saves now record tile size, and positions are re-snapped to the grid on load.
