[1.0.5] - 2026-08-28 - Fix: Journal, Drip Naming & Arrow Customization

🌟 Added

• Drip vs. Super Naming Toggle (VariantNaming): Added a dedicated configuration option allowing players to choose between the canonical Drip (default) and Super terminology across all journal headers, switcher buttons ([▶ DRIP CREATURES]), and slot labels (Drip: French Fry).
• Interactive Arrow Sizing & Spread Distance (ArrowSpreadDistance & ArrowScale):
  • ArrowSpreadDistance: Adjust horizontal distance between pagination arrows (0 = vanilla native distance, positive = spread further apart, negative = closer together).
  • ArrowScale: Scale multiplier (0.5x to 2.0x, default 1.0x) resizing both visual arrows and their clickable hitboxes for effortless navigation.
  • ArrowVerticalOffset: Adjust vertical placement higher or lower.

🐛 Fixed

• Arrow Clickability & Raycast Blocking: Fixed an issue where the wide progress text container (pText) intercepted mouse click events. Disabled raycast targets on overlay text elements, ensuring 100% responsive and effortless clicking on all navigation buttons.
• Journal Slot Discovery & Model Rendering: Fixed an engine bug where catching a Drip creature before catching the regular version left the journal slot as a black silhouette ???. Slots now immediately reveal full 3D models, official names, price tags, and glowing rainbow text upon discovery.
• Independent Progress Tracking: Fixed cross-contamination between regular and Drip progress. Regular catches unlock standard journal slots without unlocking Drip slots, and Drip catches unlock Drip slots independently.
• Save System & Registration Overhaul: Replaced the native flawed SaveManager.IsNewFish with a robust two-way registration system, ensuring that newly discovered fish and Drip variants reliably trigger the "New Creature Caught" banner and persist to local.txt regardless of catch order.
• Boss Exclusion: Bosses without Drip variants are cleanly excluded from Drip mode and display standard boss information without unwanted prefixes.
• Progress Header Counters: Fixed inverted counters in the journal header; Regular and Drip statistics now display with 100% precision.
• Harmony Parameter Compatibility: Fixed Harmony prefix parameter naming matching game internals (byte id, bool to, bool drip) to eliminate all startup warnings.
