Adds cinematic bullet-time combat sequence with slow-mo golden projectiles,
afterimage dodge trails, and devastating counter-rush with multi-hit impact.

- Creator omni-morph now generates actual sprite sheets for morphed archetypes
- 3 new Creator showboats: bullet time attack, ₿ throne summon, disco dance
- Music: subtle tempo shift (+10 BPM max), longer phrases (8/16/24 bars),
smoother crossfades, less chaotic hi-hat at high intensity
- Server: security headers, body size limit, production error masking,
CORS origin warning, graceful shutdown with drain
- Payments: atomic consume (eliminates SELECT/UPDATE race), release reverts DB
- Fight loop: round events for live TUI, retro displayPrompt
- Frontend: pass pubkey in payment/queue requests

Completely rewrote all 30 showboats with much more walking, jumping,
sprinting back and forth across the arena. Fighters now pace, charge,
leapfrog, zigzag sprint, do backflip retreats, wall-to-wall dashes,
kangaroo hops, shadow box sprints, and girlfriend kiss scenes.
Added 12 Creator-exclusive magical showboats:
- Levitate across screen trailing golden ₿ rain
- Portal teleport (vanish, flash between 3 spots, reappear)
- Massive golden code rain summon (₿01∞⚡⛏ characters)
- ₿ orbit explosion (orbit then burst outward)
- Lightning flight (zigzag with lightning bolts)
- Satoshi meditation (golden aura, bitcoin wisdom quotes)
- Golden tornado (circular path with ₿ trail)
- Laptop hack (type furiously, spawn code chars)
- Bitcoin rain shower (fly across dropping ₿ coins)
- Dimension rift (tear golden portal, step through)
- Golden ascension (rise, glow, slam down with shockwave)
- Phase walk (flicker through opponent's space)
Creator gets magical showboats ~60% of the time. Pause between
showboats shortened to keep the action constant.

Fighters now perform random showboating micro-animations while idle
during question reading and opponent's answer — shadow boxing, backflips,
flex poses, moonwalks, ground pounds, air guitar, sumo stomps, and more.
Each showboat uses existing sprite anims (attack/kick/special/win) combined
with Kaplay tweens for position, scale, rotation, sparks, and emote text.
Showboating loops with random variety and pauses between moves.
Flow: both showboat during question → stop the answering bot during their
turn → stop all before fight animation begins.

- Unified speakAsync/speakAsyncWithRate into _speakAsyncCore with:
- 500ms startup check: bail immediately if speech won't start (mobile/no gesture)
- 8s safety timeout (down from 15s) to prevent blocking
- iOS-safe keepalive: only do Chrome pause/resume workaround on desktop Chrome
- Immediate bail when no voices loaded
- Sprite loading: 5s timeout per sprite prevents mobile hangs from stuck Image decodes
- Scene creation: 10s timeout in FightViewer so overlay/voice flow continues even if
canvas fails on mobile
- playRound: bail gracefully if fighter sprites missing instead of crashing
- Global audio unlock: first touch/click on site unlocks AudioContext + SpeechSynthesis
- Practice button pre-unlocks audio while still in user gesture context

TTS fixes:
- Remove 60-char truncation in FightViewer — let speakAnswer handle limits
- Smart truncation at sentence boundaries (period, comma, etc.) up to 200 chars
- Chrome keepalive: periodic pause/resume prevents silent 15s cutoff bug
- Deduplicated cleanup logic in speakAsync/speakAsyncWithRate
Retro mode:
- Simplified challenge prompt from verbose wall of text to clean 3-line format

DocsPage: escaped \"answer\" inside v-for HTML attribute broke template
parsing causing infinite Vite error loop. Replaced with " entity.
FightScene: three k.text('₿') objects used .angle without k.rotate()
component, causing TS2339 build errors.

Every fight now includes one Retro Mode round where bots submit
gamepad combo inputs (↑↓←→ A B). 24 moves across 4 tiers: basic
(always shown), standard (partially revealed), super (must discover),
and ultra (KONAMI CODE for 50 dmg). Discovery bonus gives 1.5x damage.
Includes pixel-art gamepad overlays (P1/P2) with animated button
presses, retro-specific narrations, and mock bot combo responses
scaled by ELO.
Also adds loops/plan.md with 11-phase production hardening roadmap.

Disconnect and recreate sfxGain in stopAllAudio() so oscillators
and noise buffers stop immediately instead of playing to completion.

- texan profile pitch/rate adjusted (0.65/0.75) to differentiate from deep (0.7/0.7)
- Audited all 60 voice profiles: no remaining pitch+rate duplicates
- Category announces verified: all fire correctly via speak() pipeline

- Add scale factor (SF) based on canvas height so bots and referee
shrink proportionally on small screens (reference: 500px)
- Scale judge chair/ladder dimensions with SF
- Push judge seat lower on small canvases so it stays visible
- Use 100dvh instead of 100vh to account for mobile browser chrome
(address bar, tab bar) — eliminates scroll under browser UI

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

orchestrator.ts and mock.ts — queries were building but never executing,
leaving fights stuck as 'live' forever
- Remove spectator crowd from drawArenaDecor()
- Rename duplicate spawnProp to spawnWeaponProp (was crashing module load)
- Replace canvas element on re-init to avoid "KAPLAY already initialized"
