The #moveCursorToTarget() method recursively schedules itself via
requestAnimationFrame, creating a continuous animation loop for the
AI cursor. However, dispose() only removes the DOM wrapper element
without stopping this loop, causing:
- CPU waste: rAF callback continues executing every frame (~60fps)
after the mask is disposed, performing unnecessary calculations
on a detached cursor element.
- Resource leak: Each SimulatorMask instance creates an unrecoverable
animation loop that persists for the lifetime of the page.
- Console noise: style assignments to removed DOM nodes may produce
browser warnings.
Fix: Add a #disposed boolean flag, checked at the top of
#moveCursorToTarget() to short-circuit the recursion. Set the flag
to true in dispose() before removing DOM elements.
Changes:
- Add #disposed field (default false)
- Guard #moveCursorToTarget() with early return when #disposed
- Set #disposed = true in dispose() before cleanup
