Add docs/dev-log.md and docs/version-targets.md to seed project documentation. dev-log.md provides a development log and template for recording setup steps, decisions, current focus, status, and next steps. version-targets.md records primary target platform and exact Fallout 4/F4SE version targets, testing notes, and compatibility guidance to ensure consistent environment for early native plugin development.

Version Targets
Fallout 4 Together is version-sensitive because it depends on Fallout 4, F4SE, and native plugin development.
Primary Target
Platform: Steam
Fallout 4 Version: 1.11.221.0
F4SE Version: 1.11.221.0
Creation Kit Version:
CommonLibF4 Template:
Compiler:
Build System:
Notes
All multiplayer testing should use the same:
- Fallout 4 version
- F4SE version
- Fallout 4 Together plugin version
- Fallout 4 Together test ESP version
- Load order
- Test save
Secondary Targets
GOG: Not currently tested
Microsoft Store/Game Pass: Not supported
Console: Not supported
Reasoning
F4SE supports the latest Fallout 4 versions available on Steam and GOG, but Steam and GOG are not always the same version. This means native plugin work should lock to one primary target during early development.
Current Development Decision
Fallout 4 Together will use the Steam build of Fallout 4 as the primary development target.
GOG support may be investigated later once the plugin loads successfully and the basic transform-sync prototype is working.
Compatibility Warning
Fallout 4 Together may not work across different Fallout 4 executable versions.
During testing, every connected player should use the same game version, F4SE version, plugin version, ESP version, and load order.
