Update #6 + Roadmap Progress – Smelters, Storage, and Siege Engines

Update #6 focused on easing mid-game pressure and tightening control over assistants and resources, while the broader roadmap continues toward siege weapons, coin minting, and deeper workshop management.

• Resource restocking has been unified across wood, ore, and ingots

• Ingot storage can be set as source or destination to manage flow
