  117. FIXEDCliff-terrain zombie movement so hordes now push straight toward the operator and buildings again, only detour locally around plateaus, and no longer clip through plateau tops on long approaches
  118. FIXEDCliff-terrain zombie movement so hordes now face their travel direction, follow plateau edges more smoothly, and stop twitching left-right while skirting cliffs
  119. FIXEDCliff-terrain zombie movement so detouring around plateaus no longer gives zombies unintended speed boosts and turning now reads much heavier and more natural

  130. IMPROVEDZombie crowding so hordes now spread sideways under pressure instead of stacking into a single-file line along the same route
  131. FIXEDClose-range zombie behavior so nearby attackers stop jittering around their target and only aggro the operator once they are inside the construction radius
  132. IMPROVEDZombie flow-field steering so crowd lanes now approach targets with smoother, wider fronts instead of collapsing into a harsh single-line seam
  133. FIXEDZombie fallback targeting so hordes still retarget to the operator when no collectors or buildings remain, even from outside construction range
  134. FIXEDCliff-separated zombie aggro so hordes now stay in their slower pathing mode until the actual routed flow-field distance is short enough to charge
  135. FIXEDZombie strategic targeting so the operator is once again considered from any distance instead of only inside construction range
  136. FIXEDZombie separation scheduling so far-away hordes no longer ran crowd-separation checks every update, restoring late-game combat responsiveness
  137. IMPROVEDLate-wave zombie movement fluidity so high-density hordes no longer appear to update at a low frame rate while the rest of the game stays smooth
  138. IMPROVEDWASM zombie crowd flow so dense hordes now press forward with softer local spacing instead of snapping sideways into artificial slots
  139. FIXEDBuild-tool deselection so right-clicking empty space now cancels the active building tool like `A`/`Q`/`Escape`

  142. FIXEDHotbar category buttons so thin pixel artifacts no longer extended past the cut corner or leaked blue specks at the inner border
  143. FIXEDBuilding designer placement so Escape now deselects the active building tool, while re-selecting a building from the designer re-arms placement immediately for a quick second placement
  144. FIXEDThe building designer route so code edits and remounts no longer wiped the active test map while iterating on placed buildings
