Changes:
- Replace MeshBuilder.CreateSphere() with TransformNode in rockFactory.ts
- Eliminates 15-50ms geometry creation delay before audio playback
- Spatial audio only needs position data, not full mesh geometry
- Sound now plays immediately on asteroid collision
Technical details:
- TransformNode is a lightweight position container with no geometry
- No vertex buffers or WebGL resources to allocate
- Instantaneous creation removes blocking operation from critical path
- Maintains spatial audio positioning without performance overhead

Major changes:
- Change asteroid config to use single scale number instead of Vector3
- Move planetTextures to public/assets/materials/planetTextures
- Add GLB path configuration for start base
- Fix inspector toggle to work bidirectionally
- Add progression system support
Asteroid Scaling Changes:
- Update AsteroidConfig interface to use 'scale: number' instead of 'scaling: Vector3Array'
- Modify RockFactory.createRock() to accept single scale parameter
- Update level serializer/deserializer to use uniform scale
- Simplify level generation code in levelEditor and levelGenerator
- Update validation to check for positive number instead of 3-element array
Asset Organization:

- Update all texture path references in planetTextures.ts (210 paths)
- Update default texture paths in createSun.ts and levelSerializer.ts
- Update CLAUDE.md documentation with new asset structure
Start Base Improvements:
- Add baseGlbPath and landingGlbPath to StartBaseConfig
- Update StarBase.buildStarBase() to accept GLB path parameter

## Blender Export Utilities
- Add blenderExporter utility with ESM support (tsx)
- Create CLI script for exporting .blend files to GLB
- Add npm scripts: export-blend, export-blend:watch, export-blend:batch
- Support watch mode, batch export, and Draco compression
- Complete documentation in docs/BLENDER_EXPORT.md
- Add loadAsset utility helper
## Asset Structure Reorganization
- Move models to themeable structure: public/assets/themes/default/models/
- Add themes/ directory with source .blend files
- Remove old model files from public/ root
- Consolidate to asteroid.glb, base.glb, ship.glb
## Level Configuration Improvements
- Make startBase optional in LevelConfig interface
- Update LevelGenerator to not generate startBase data by default
- Update LevelDeserializer to handle optional startBase
- Update Level1 to handle null startBase
- Fix levelEditor to remove startBase generation references
- Update validation to treat startBase as optional
## Dependencies
- Add tsx for ESM TypeScript execution
- Add @types/node for Node.js types
- Update package-lock.json
This enables modding support with themeable assets and simplifies
level generation by making base stations optional.
