Menu and Match Setup Improvements

Menu workflow updates

The menu flow was reorganized to reduce friction between startup and entering a playable session. Settings and setup controls are now easier to navigate in a single pass.

This pass prioritized practical usability over cosmetic rework.

• Startup flow now guides users through setup more cleanly.
• Settings organization was simplified for faster access.
• Session launch path has fewer ambiguous steps.

Match setup consistency

Session boot behavior was hardened so configured options map more reliably to runtime state. This reduces mismatches between UI expectation and game start conditions.

The result is fewer failed starts and less setup confusion.

• Improved consistency from selected options to launched session.
• Reduced setup-state drift between screens.
• More predictable startup behavior under repeated restarts.

Foundation for future UX work

This upgrade establishes a cleaner baseline for future onboarding and advanced setup features. It also improves confidence when adding new toggles and game modes.

Further UI work can now iterate on stronger structural assumptions.

• Supports future game mode and map setup expansion.
• Reduces maintenance cost for menu-related features.
• Improves first-run experience for new players.
