⚙️ Auto‑Play Upgrade Fix - Fixed an issue where the Auto‑Play Speed upgrade could be purchased again after reaching 0.5 seconds per move, causing it to stay at 0.5s but still consume gold - The upgrade now properly locks once it reaches its intended minimum speed

No more wasting gold on a non‑upgrade.

đź’° Balance Adjustments

Passive Income - Passive income upgrades now cap at Level 5 - This keeps early‑game progression smooth without letting passive gold overshadow active play

Gold Multiplier - Gold multiplier upgrades now cap at 150% - Prevents runaway inflation while keeping gold gains satisfying

Vampirism - Vampirism upgrades now cap at 25% - Keeps sustain strong but not infinite, especially in late‑game loops

These caps help maintain long‑term balance while still letting players feel powerful.

🧹 Minor Fixes & Polish - Small internal cleanup to ensure upgrade caps display correctly - Minor UI alignment adjustments - Backend prep for future content updates
