Common validation messages and fixes

Content Validator and generated asset validation
Full feedback course: after this reference section, use Make the loop feel alive for the complete audio, animation, VFX, camera, cinematic, UI feedback, validation, and Quick Play walkthrough.
Validation helps find missing references, incomplete resources, unsafe paths, broken generated assets, map issues, and export-preflight problems before they become harder to debug.
Common validation categories:
- Missing scene reference.
- Missing icon/audio/VFX/texture.
- Missing generated asset metadata.
- Invalid or duplicate resource ID.
- Map event missing target.
- Quest missing reward/objective/reference.
- Shop missing item resource.
- Export template missing.
- Unsupported platform assumption.
- Asset path inside plugin folder.
- Orphan/stale generated asset registry record.
Warnings do not always mean the content is unusable. They mean you should inspect and decide whether the warning matters. Errors usually require fixing before relying on the result.
