Description
Currently simple URLs are used and my browser caches them. This leads to problems when I publish an updated version of the game.
This can be solved by adding a query parameter like `?v=$TIMESTAMP` to all the URLs KorGE tries to get.

Research direction
Start by tracing how KorGE constructs URLs for JavaScript and other resources in the web target; no file or test is named in the issue. Confirm the cache-busting parameter is applied consistently and that an updated published game causes the browser to request fresh files.
