v0.0.804

Updated enemy healer survival behavior.
Pack and support healers now try to stay away from the player while supporting allies.
Healers now switch into close-range self-defense once the player crosses their configured defense radius.

Added coordinated enemy pack behavior to standard waves.
Normal wave enemies now spawn in 3-6 member packs with guaranteed tank and healer roles, plus randomized DPS, flanker, and Flame Skull ranged assignments.
Packs now gain a proximity buff while 3 or more members stay together, increasing outgoing damage, attack speed, movement speed, and damage resistance.
Healers now prioritize injured pack tanks first, while flankers and ranged members use role-specific positioning around the player.

Updated Flame Skull ranged shots to use Jade’s base Fire projectile visuals.
Flame Skulls now fire the same stage-1 Fire projectile sheet/animation used by Jade’s Fire auto-attack.
Flame Skull projectiles no longer use the old custom fire-skull fireball art or trigger fireball-style impact explosions.

Improved Flame Skull fireball animation timing.
Flame Skull fireballs now retime their projectile strip to the actual shot distance so point-blank casts still play the full sequence before impact.
Flame Skull fireballs now play their strip once and hold on the last frame instead of looping during flight.

Fixed the last packaged menu logo placeholder regression.
Menu logo slots are now plain layout containers instead of Rml image elements, so the engine-drawn WoW-Logo.png no longer inherits a white replaced-element background.

Fixed the remaining direct-draw alpha issue for packaged menu logos.
SDL texture draws now force blend mode at render time for non-batched full-texture and texture-region copies, so transparent PNG pixels stay transparent.

Fixed the remaining white-box logo regression in packaged menus.
Rml logo placeholders no longer render their own duplicate image behind the engine-drawn logo, so transparent areas stay transparent.

Fixed transparent logo rendering in packaged menus.
Engine textures created from PNG surfaces now default to alpha blending, so WoW-Logo.png respects its transparent background.
