Changelog - REPO-DropLaser-LandingLaserMod

[1.1.5]

Fixed

• Linked saga lifecycle spam logs to EnableLogging so cut-off/recovery chatter is suppressed when logging is disabled.
• Linked ghost-preview warning chatter (including unavailable/no-renderer ghost cases) to EnableLogging so normal play no longer floods the log/chat.

[1.1.4]

Fixed

• Reworked ghost preview instantiation to use a visual-only ghost hierarchy instead of cloning full gameplay objects.
• Prevented runtime side effects from cloned object scripts/components during ghost creation (including Awake()-time null-reference crash paths such as enemy component initialization).
• Added guard behavior to skip ghost preview safely when a held object has no supported renderers.

[1.1.3]

Added

• The 3x3 bounds raycasting system was not great. Replaced with bottom-face downward casting.

Fixed

• README should now display images and link to video on Thunderstore.

[1.1.2]

Added

• None

Fixed

• README should now display images and link to video on Thunderstore.

[1.1.1]

Added

• New debug visualization architecture for cart hitbox inspection:
  • Dedicated beam debug service.
  • Cart hit-ray visualizer.
  • Cart part highlighter with forward/backward cycling.
• New debug/runtime config options:
  • EnableDebugVisuals
  • EnableHitDiagnostics

Changed

• Refactored beam debug logic out of the main beam runtime path for cleaner architecture.
• Unified configured key parsing through a shared input helper.
• Debug stop override now uses the configured DebugStopOverrideKey consistently.
• EnableDebugVisuals now defaults to true.

Fixed

• Fixed Harmony input prefix behavior so base grabber update is not skipped when toggling without a held object.
• Consolidated duplicate ReleaseObject patch behavior into a single release flow.
• Removed unused ghost projection subsystem that was not wired into runtime.
• Wired previously unused ghost configs into runtime behavior:
  • UseCustomGhostColor
  • CustomGhostColor
  • GhostEmissionIntensity
• Applied release hygiene cleanup (.gitignore newline and text normalization).

[1.1.0]

Added

• Ghost preview landing mode with configurable behavior:
  • 0 = never
  • 1 = on cart
  • 2 = always
• New ghost preview tuning options:
  • Custom ghost color support.
  • Ghost opacity setting.
  • Ghost emission intensity setting.
  • Ghost update frame interval setting.
• Config migration support so existing user settings are preserved across schema changes/updates.
• Cart state accessor helpers to improve landing/preview decision logic.

Changed

• Reworked drop beam update flow for more stable ghost preview behavior.
• Added vertical lock handling during preview updates.
• Reduced default laser light intensity by 50% for a less overpowering glow.
• Refactored controller lifecycle for cleaner activation/deactivation handling.

Fixed

• Prevented the laser from rendering above objects during object intersections.
• Fixed logger info output to correctly print the provided message.
