+This version requires RPCharacters 2.1.0 or later for character focus; Research no
+longer depends on TFMCCore. Deploy the matching RPCharacters, TFMCCore ownership
+handoff build (if installed), and Magic/Research consumers together, then restart.
+An older installed TFMCCore makes RPCharacters stand down focus to avoid duplicate
+writers, so experiments cannot spend focus until the plugin set is compatible.
+Existing Research player files remain available to RPCharacters for legacy focus
+imports; this change does not delete or rewrite them.
