Celestial Concourse

Changelog

1.12.0 — Operations Intelligence

• Added an authoritative one-minute operations forecast with source-by-source production, employment utilization, the next freight delivery, and an actionable current constraint.

• Added Shift+movement camera panning, middle-mouse panning, and Page Up/Down zoom for faster keyboard-and-mouse city navigation.
• Added cached model scenes and primitive meshes, animated low-overhead weather, activity beacons, corrected rocket status, and deterministic world reset behavior.

1.11.0 — Command & Clarity

• Added authoritative, non-mutating placement, modernization, and redevelopment reports with exact costs, readiness, salvage, and blocker text.
• Added a persistent milestone console plus explicit READY, LOCKED, and COMPLETE states across infrastructure, rocket, launch, orbit, and civic-contract actions.

1.10.0 — Operations Pass

• Unified rail, harbor, launch-pad, rocket, launch, orbital-project, and redevelopment readiness behind authoritative public action diagnostics.
• Kept incomplete milestone controls actionable so mouse and keyboard players receive the exact missing dependency or resource requirement.
• Added a live cursor inspector with district type, modernization level, next upgrade cost, and redevelopment salvage value.
• Added 1×, 2×, and 3× simulation speeds while preserving real-time autosaves and the authored launch countdown.

1.6.0 — District Redevelopment

• Added a sixth palette tool for removing any placed district with clear occupied-tile targeting.
• Added 50% charter-aware salvage refunds and immediate population, jobs, happiness, tourism, contract, and milestone recalculation.
