Symbolswapdata

Overview

This component stores persistent metadata for items that have undergone symbol swapping (e.g., recipe substitutions via the "Symbol Swap" mechanic). It records the original build ID, the assigned symbol, and whether the item is skinned—enabling accurate replication and validation during network sync or item reconstruction.
