Task 2: ActionButtons Rework - Context

Task Description

Priority task from task2.md

Requirements:

1. Remove Manual Selection: Remove buttons that allow players to manually choose their action.
2. Automatic Transition: Automatically switch the state to 'Meditate' whenever a Study or Crafting task finishes.
3. Status Display: Replace buttons with a read-only 'Current Activity' indicator.

Current Implementation:

• ActionButtons component is in /home/user/repos/Mana-Loop/src/components/game/ActionButtons.tsx
• The component currently shows buttons for: meditate, climb, study, craft, repair, convert, design, prepare, enchant
• currentAction state comes from the game store
• Buttons allow manual selection of actions

What Needs To Be Done:

1. Read src/components/game/ActionButtons.tsx to understand current implementation
2. Remove the manual selection buttons (or make them read-only)
3. Find where Study and Crafting actions complete (look in store.ts or crafting-slice.ts)
4. Add logic to automatically set currentAction to 'meditate' when Study or Crafting completes
5. Replace buttons with a read-only "Current Activity" indicator showing the current action
6. Test the changes
7. Commit with message: "Task 2: ActionButtons rework - remove manual selection, auto-transition to Meditate"

Key Files To Examine:

• src/components/game/ActionButtons.tsx - main component to modify
• src/lib/game/store.ts - likely contains action completion logic
• src/lib/game/crafting-slice.ts - crafting completion logic

Implementation Notes:

• Study completes when studyProgress finishes
• Crafting completes when preparationProgress or enchantProgress finishes
• Need to track these completion events and trigger the Meditate transition
