0.99 alpha 24 -> 0.99 alpha 25 (02/16/2021)
[*] Comprehensively fixed crash due to lack of video memory with a large number of "put counter on creature" effects being played:
[1] An unsuccessful attempt to create a texture (for example, when there is not enough video memory) now does not crash the game. Lags, glitches, non-drawing may temporarily occur, but the game will continue to work.
[2] Optimized the code for putting (enrage / poison / cripling / attack) counters in the case when a given number of counters is randomly distributed among creatures on the battlefield. Now counters are applied not by 1, but immediately by the total amount for each creature on the battlefield, which significantly reduces the number of "put counter on creature" effect played and speeds up the game. This is noticeable in the case of poison and Rotting mummy and Ichor Weaver abilities , especially when there are more than one Ichor Weaver on the battlefield;
[3] The number of counters of the same type (enrage / poison / cripling / attack) on one creature cannot exceed 99 (a larger number does not make much sense and is not displayed correctly).
[ ] Attack of a creature cannot exceed 99 (the greater value does not make much sense and is not displayed correctly; the three-digit negative health of the hero is also not displayed correctly).
[!] Attention. Due to the above changes, some replays from previous versions of the game may not play correctly.

[-] Fixed a bug when an irrelevant event card overlaps the current one (after zooming in when viewed with a right click).
[-] Fixed a critical bug with the banish of an invisible (not yet deployed on the battleground) card.

[-] Fixed bugs related to copying cards with Shadow Image and Ink Warrior spells: a number of cards were buggy after copying - they moving from graveyard on the battleground when deploy, playing the animation of moving to the graveyard (black smoke) on the battleground, slowing down / glitching .
