🌟 Journey Mode — Version 2.1.0: "The Fluid Progress Update"

After a long development cycle, I'm thrilled to present the most massive visual and functional overhaul yet! I'm have completely reimagined the user interface and introduced powerful QoL features to make your research and replication experience smoother than ever.

🎨 Visual & UI Overhaul (Global Redesign)

• A Brand New Look: Say goodbye to the old plain gray boxes. The interface has been completely redesigned from scratch, featuring a sleek, industrial techno-factory aesthetic with vibrant neon-purple accents.
• Physical Fluid Tank (Main Feature!): The left panel now features a unique research bar driven by real-time fluid physics and dynamic bubbles. It includes a hidden 100-level progression system that smoothly shifts colors from pure white to a deep, royal purple as your research expands. This system will also lay the groundwork for future global meta-progression!

🔧 Quality-of-Life Features

• Smart Fuzzy Search: An advanced, blazing-fast search engine that supports all languages and special characters. It tolerates up to 2 typos or character differences without causing a single micro-lag, no matter how large your modpack is or how many thousands of items you have unlocked.
• Advanced Grid Sorting: Organize your unlocked library instantly with 3 robust modes:
  1. A — Alphabetical sorting.
  2. ID — Internal Minecraft registry IDs.
  3. Mi — Multi-mode (Smart ID -> Alphabetical fallback sorting).

⚙️ Balance & Economy Adjustments

• Exponential Level Price Scaling: The initial level cost is now set to 64 items. Each subsequent level tier scales exponentially ($64^{1.5}$, meaning the next step requires 128, and so on up to 6,400).
