Version 1.56.6 Released

Knights of Crystalis is now large enough that performance can no longer be treated as a simple question of whether the game technically runs.

Hundreds of systems, large data catalogs, offline simulation, social simulation, world history, buildcraft, Guides, News, diagnostics and procedural progression all compete for browser resources.

Version 1.56.6 begins separating those responsibilities more aggressively.

The game now does less work before the player needs it.

That means:

• faster startup
• fewer save writes
• lower startup memory pressure
• smaller startup payloads
• less unnecessary DOM observation
• diagnostics stay out of normal gameplay
• slow clock/network validation no longer blocks Home
• offline integrity remains protected
• previous balance and mobile hardening remains intact

This update provides a much stronger technical foundation for future content expansions.
