This generator now tracks how many times in a row it has failed during a given turn and stops trying again once it fails three times. It also skips starting a new generation if one is already in progress. The way this background work is saved and tracked internally was also reworked.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis prevents the away-summary feature from repeatedly failing and retrying in a loop, or from running duplicate generations at once, making it more predictable when it fails and quieter when it does.\n\n- Area: Elsewhere\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5"}
