🚀 What's New

"Catch-Up" Mechanic: Stumps in unloaded chunks no longer freeze in time. When a chunk reloads, the mod calculates how long the stump was offline and simulates the random ticks it missed.

The Result: If you leave your base for a few in-game days, you will return to a healing forest rather than a frozen wasteland.

Safe Regrowth (Default): To prevent massive lag spikes when loading old chunks, successful "Catch-Up" stumps turn into Stage 1 Saplings (on the verge of growing). This disperses the heavy world-gen lag over the next ~10 minutes as they naturally pop into trees.

Instant Regrowth (Optional): Added a config toggle (instantCatchUp). If enabled, "Catch-Up" stumps will force-grow the full tree immediately upon chunk load. Performance testing was generally good, but edge cases could indroduce heavy lag spikes.

⚙️ Configuration Changes

New Categories: Split the config file into [regrowth] and [performance] sections for better readability.

New Settings:

• catchUpGrowth (true/false): Master toggle for the new mechanic.

• instantCatchUp (true/false): Toggle for the high-performance instant growth mode.

Cleaned Up: Added comments and organization to all existing keys.
