Version: 0.1.0
Date: 2026-04-26
  Features:
    - Added Light Cruiser entity: a 1.66x-scaled patrol boat with one deck-mounted artillery turret.
    - Light Cruiser uses patrol boat graphics scaled 1.66x; supports 256-direction rotation.
    - Cannon turret uses the same artillery-turret prototype pattern as the Battleship cargo ship.
    - Cannon turret is mounted on the stern and rendered at 70% of its previous visual size.
    - Cannon turret has a green tint.
    - Cannon turns toward the bow while the ship is moving; launch acceleration stays slow until the cannon is centered.
    - Waterway version uses scaled coupling distances and a longer engine offset to avoid front-engine overlap.
    - Artillery ammo is loaded automatically from cargo hold.
    - Turret follows the ship using the Battleship artillery turret sync pattern.
    - Registered with cargo-ships API for waterway-rail conversion.
    - Technology "light-cruiser" requires "battleship" research.
