  1. 🧠 Ant AI & Navigation Improvements
    Prevented "Death Spirals": Fixed a critical issue where ants would form inescapable clusters (ant mills). Replaced the flawed "Backward Sensor" logic with a Forward Bias Inertia model, allowing ants to naturally break out of high-density pheromone clouds.
    Path Reinforcement:
    Smart U-Turn: Ants now perform an immediate 180° turn upon returning to the nest, ensuring they re-enter the trail they just established.
    Always Recharge: Ants now replenish their pheromone supply every time they visit the nest (even without food), ensuring the "Home" signal remains strong for other foragers.
  2. 🎮 UI & Controls
    Pause Functionality: Added a robust Pause/Resume feature (Spacebar), allowing users to inspect the colony state without simulation running.
    Glass Border Effect: Implemented a visual border for the simulation tank.
    Dynamic Settings: Exposed more simulation parameters to the UI for real-time tuning.
  3. 📝 Documentation
    Updated
    README.md
    with new control instructions and feature explanations.
    Added updated screenshots demonstrating the improved simulation behavior.
