What’s new
- Smoother mid-game pacing after Data unlocks. Discoveries and first Found Observatory take longer so content does not blow by.
- Ad mediation updates (Meta Audience Network + Liftoff Monetize) for more reliable rewarded ads.
- Nightfall / Director prompts no longer appear before the Director screen unlocks.
- Stability and monetization polish.
