Progress Bar filling red instantly

Hi! AfkWarden's Progress bar alarm is broken for me and I've run out of things to try.

**The problem:** When I start a production action (e.g. making Magic planks at a workbench), the Progress bar alarm in AfkWarden goes grey, then within about a second fills up completely red, as if it read 100%. The in-game bar is actually at something like 3/28 with 30s left. It stays full red for the whole action.

**What I've checked:**
- Alt1 1.6.0, DirectX capture (Capture tab says capture is working)
- In-game interface scaling 100%, game render scaling 100%, brightness at default
- Windows display scaling 100%, game at 2560x1440
- AfkWarden has View screen, Get game state and Show overlay permissions

**What I've tried:**
- Moved the in-game progress window away from the centre to the bottom-right, with nothing overlapping it: same result
- Turned on "Draw pixel detection debug data": Alt1 draws the box exactly around the in-game progress bar, so it finds it, but AfkWarden still reads it as full
- Turned off accelerated pixel detection (it was on AVX256): no change
- Removed and reinstalled AfkWarden
- Tried an XP-based alarm instead: also didn't work

**Possibly related:** the Capture tab in Alt1 Settings says "Alt1 failed to find the home teleport button in-game. Image detection might not be working correctly." even though all scaling is 100%.

Any idea what's causing this? I can send screenshots if that helps. Thanks!
