PreloadAsync rethrew on the first failing hull, so one bad package faulted
Loading and no mod ship could spawn. Each hull now loads in its own try: a
failure destroys its partial visual, is logged with the hull's name, and the
rest still preload, as Compose skips a bad package. The play smoke installs the
package beside a broken sibling that composes but cannot assemble (its map icon
moved onto a meshless muzzle node) and proves the sibling has no prototype while
the good ship spawns.

forceRenderingOff is not serialized, so Instantiate and SaveAsPrefabAsset dropped
it and every cloned mod ship (and every FBX-built prefab) drew its collision hull.
The collider renderer now takes the template's invisible material, as the thruster
emitter does. The preview smoke checks the collider on the clone and the prefab
smoke checks it on the configured prefab.

forceRenderingOff is not serialized, so the prototype's clone drew the
emitter again; the preview smoke's clone check caught it. The emitter's
materials become the template's invisible material, which survives
Instantiate and which EntityInstance keeps as the renderer's own material.

Ruling thrusters-radiators-are-meshes: thruster and radiator mounts are meshes;
the thruster's is not drawn and is the surface its exhaust emits from, the
radiator's is drawn. The assembler already required a mesh for both; it now
turns rendering off on the thruster emitter, and the preview smoke checks it.
The authoring doc states the mount rules and the mesh rule.

The array's only reader was the dead SoundBank block in EntityInstance, which
looked up a hardpoint transform and did nothing with it. ShipModPlan.Equipment,
ShipModShips' assignment, the preview check, the FBX builder's HP.Equipment
case and its smoke assertion all fed that one dead reader. An HP.Equipment node
is now refused by the builder as an unknown hardpoint kind.

DontDestroyOnLoad throws outside play mode, so the edit-mode play smoke
failed before it reached assembly.

Boot opens the derived catalog when GameData/Mods holds packages
(ShipModCatalog.ResolveCatalog), preloads each hull's GLB into an assembled
inactive prototype (ShipModShips), and LoadEntity clones it when the hull names
a Visual. ShipModPlan decides which anchor fills which ShipInstance slot; a
ShipModTemplate prefab carries the shared effects. Continue refuses a run that
names a design the catalog no longer holds (RunSave.RequireDesigns).
