Robot configuration, position, and block layout were lost on every page refresh. This adds full localStorage persistence to
home.html.What's saved
Implementation
saveState()— serializes state tolocalStorageunderrobotics_playground_state.loadState()— called once before the game loop starts; restores all state and syncs UI elements (sliders, color picker, parts list, camera feed visibility, lidar panel).Save triggers:
addPart,removePart,updatePower,updateTurn,updateColor,handlePickDroploop()to capture position/angle during movementReset —
resetAll()callslocalStorage.removeItem(STORAGE_KEY)so a reset stays reset after refresh.Restored
x/yare clamped to current canvas bounds to handle viewport size changes between sessions. All localStorage calls are wrapped intry/catchto gracefully handle unavailability (e.g. private browsing, storage quota).🔒 GitHub Advanced Security automatically protects Copilot coding agent pull requests.
