🔴 Critical Bug

File: CharacterStore.cs

This singleton gets destroyed on scene load, causing NullReferenceException in any system that holds a reference to it across scenes.

Fix: Add to Awake():

DontDestroyOnLoad(gameObject);

Fixed in PR #31 (feat/persistent-character-system).

CharacterStore.Awake() now calls DontDestroyOnLoad(gameObject) with a singleton guard to destroy duplicates. The character is spawned once in the Loading Screen and persists across all scene transitions. Each game scene has a CharacterSpawnPoint + CharacterSceneInitializer that teleports it to the correct position on arrival.
