Dice reported this, thank you!
My mistake here was that `loadImage` _does_ reject when the image fails to load… but it ends up throwing `undefined`, since I forgot to pass the error along from `onerror` to `reject`!
So we would cancel stuff, but then store `undefined` as our error in state, which our component interprets as no-error.
I tested this by using Firefox DevTools request blocking!
On the homepage, I want to keep the ability to enter invalid species/color pairs, so that you can say "Alien, Aisha" instead of having to pick the Aisha first.
But on the wardrobe page, we were rejecting invalid state changes anyway, so I decided to remove invalid color options from the list. And I added an ability to still switch to any species, and potentially resetting to a basic color automatically to match.
In this change, we cache the zones table as part of the JS build process. This keeps the database as our source of truth, while aggressively caching the data at deploy time.
See the new README for some rationale!
I tested this by pulling up dev Honeycomb, and observing that we no longer run db queries to `zones` in the new traces for the wardrobe page. (It's a good thing we did it this way, because I noticed some code in the server that was still loading the zone anyway, and fixed it here!)
Hey wow this was not so hard, just set some global styles, removed some hardcoded colors, and walked through the remaining hardcoded colors to pick a dark mode variant :) neat!!
I noticed that item wear/unwear is slow on mobile, because we re-render the whole app tree, and my laptop handles that super fine, but my few-years-old fun takes ~300ms, which is very noticeable.
There's some hacks we could do to get faster feedback, but first I'm diving into the render tree to find the unnecessary renders and stop 'em! That should help build perf across the board, rather than in just one spot, and hopefully be less of a weird sore spot :)
Using the newly extracted OutfitPreview! I'm really happy with how this turned out :3
It also makes the pageload after clicking Start super smooth, no spinner! Thanks Apollo cache!!
