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

Audio Loading Improvements:
- Ensure all sounds load before gameplay starts
- Wrap RockFactory explosion sound in Promise for async/await support
- Move background music loading from play() to initialize() in Level1
- Update loading messages to reflect audio loading progress
Collision and Audio Features:
- Implement energy-based collision damage using reduced mass and kinetic energy
- Add ship velocity property and display on scoreboard HUD
- Add collision sound effect with volume-adjusted playback (0.35) on ship impacts
- Move explosion sound to RockFactory with spatial audio positioning
- Configure explosion sound with exponential rolloff for better audibility
Technical Changes:
- Reorder audio engine initialization to load before RockFactory
- Background music now preloaded and ready when play() is called
- All audio assets guaranteed loaded before ready observable fires
