🤝 Multiplayer & Lobby

• See what everyone's doing live — each lobby slot now shows "In Casino", "Playing \[Map]", or "Watching WR" above the player.

• The casino is now fully separate from race maps — no more ghost players, flickering, or lag when someone's in casino while others race.

• Post-race map voting now shows everyone's votes in real time — see who picked what.

• New: press \ after a race to skip the wait and jump straight to map selection (when everyone agrees).[/p][/*]

• Leaving back to the lobby now cleanly removes your character for everyone (with a smoke puff) and updates the scoreboard.

• Players who leave or fully disconnect now vanish from the lobby instantly.

• Fixed several visibility bugs — players joining the casino, being moved into a map, or rejoining now show up right away.

• Watching a World Record replay no longer risks disconnecting you.

⚡ Powerups

• Frozen players now see the world keep moving (platforms, lasers) instead of everything freezing.

• EMP Blast now properly drops everyone's held powerup and lights up every player it hits with electric sparks — so you can see exactly who you caught.

• Powerup screen effects (Reverse, Ghost, Freeze…) now clear instantly on respawn and when you leave to the lobby — no more stuck overlays.

🎰 Casino

• The center slot machine now shows "FREE DAILY PULL" when your daily free spin is ready.

• Coinflip: fairer random sides, clearer Join/Decline prompts, cleaner "Challenge cancelled" notice.

• Bet wheels now wrap around when you scroll past the top.

🪟 Window & UI

• Windowed mode has its title bar back — move, minimize, maximize, close, plus drag-to-top to maximize.

• The lap counter no longer hides behind the title bar in windowed mode.

👤 Account

• Fixed: playing with your Steam status set to Invisible/Offline no longer drops you to a guest account — your profile and cosmetics load correctly.
