🏝️ The Forgotten Isle Update
The Islands Update turns Garden Horizons from a one-map farming loop into a two-zone economy: mainland Shillings + island Pearls. Preparation before July 24: (1) buy a Rose for Capt' Roger, (2) stockpile mainland materials, (3) camp the Pearl Shop rotation the moment it goes live.

Details
The Islands Update is the biggest post-launch content drop since the Mythical Update. It introduces a persistent second zone (The Forgotten Isle), a second currency (Pearls), a full boat-repair onboarding gate handled by Capt' Roger, and unlocks Divine → Eternal rarity tiers previously staged in the client without any plants. All content on this update is verified live in the client via `Expansions.ExpansionDefinitions`, `CurrencyDefinitions.Pearls`, and the placeholder-model `DecorationDefinitions`. The Pearl Shop itself is present but its stock table is empty — expect Aladdin's first rotation to be the debut of Divine-tier seeds.
Boat Repair Onboarding
Capt' Roger blocks passage to The Forgotten Isle until you repair his boat. Bring 3 Nails, 6 Wood, and 1 Rose — cutscene plays, you land on the island.
