Improved

2 changes
  • Player counts - the menu shows human and AI counts separately. Humans replace AI when they join; AI fills the seat again when they leave.

  • Validation - all five AI fired and scored in a native test; startup and disconnect/rejoin checks passed.

Fixed

2 changes
  • Hosting alone - fixed the empty arena after creating a lobby. The first round now starts automatically once your character is ready and the welcome menu is closed, giving a lone host five AI opponents.

  • Platform hosting - the same startup behavior applies when s&box creates the lobby outside our in-game Host button.

Known Issues

1 change
  • Beta testing - six-human Internet sessions and long-session performance still need wider testing.
