  Major UI Overhaul: Massive Performance Boosts

  Pilots, we've just deployed one of our biggest under-the-hood engine upgrades to HyperCycle League yet!For this update, we have completely ripped out the old Chromium-based (CEF) web UI engine and replaced it with a lightning-fast, custom-built native UI renderer (RmlUi). What does this mean for you? A dramatically smoother, crisper, and more responsive experience both in the menus and on the track.🏎️ Blazing Fast Performance By removing the heavy background web browser, we've freed up a massive amount of RAM and CPU overhead. The entire UI is now hardware-accelerated and rendered natively on your GPU. Say goodbye to menu micro-stutters—navigating the garage and matchmaking is now buttery smooth.🖥️ Flawless 1440p & 4K Scaling We've completely rewritten the scaling math. Whether you're playing on a 1080p monitor or a massive 4K display, the UI will now perfectly and proportionally scale to your native resolution, ensuring that text is razor-sharp and panels are properly sized.✨ Upgraded Visuals & Glassmorphism Because the UI now talks directly to Engine's rendering pipeline, we've enabled beautiful native graphical effects that just weren't possible before. You'll notice stunning glass-like background blurs (glassmorphism) behind menus and soft, ambient glowing effects on buttons and HUD elements.🛠️ Additional Fixes:Spectator HUD: Fixed a bug where the spectator overlay would appear for a split-second and then fade away when directly joining a match as a spectator.Menu Alignment: Fixed various panel alignment and margin issues across the pause menu, scoreboard, and settings screens.Boot up the game and let us know what you think of the new snappy interface. See you on the grid!
