## Description:
Preparation for nuke wars, for v30.
Next PR will be adding the nuke wars modifier for public games, but
Wonders https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/pull/3224 needs to be
merged first to avoid merge conflicts.
### 1. Disable boats setting
It's possible to disable `UnitType.TransportShip` now. Because they are
not needed in nuke wars and can even be annoying.

/>
### 2. Team spawn zones for random spawn
Maps can have `teamGameSpawnAreas` in their json file now.
Spawn areas are currently active if
- a supported map is chosen (Baikal Nuke Wars or Four Islands)
- a supported team size is chosen (2 teams on Baikal Nuke Wars or 2/4
teams on Four Islands)
- random spawn is enabled

So I thought why not make another one, this time a bit focused on
traders (tiny islands to trademaxx)
And two big islands (about 50% of the map land tiles). So its big
islands vs small islands.

## Description:
The calculation is based on: 50 players per 1_000_000 land tiles,
limited at 125 players because of performance
Second number is 75% of that, third one 50%
That way, the player counts are staying mostly the same
Look at the "Dynamic Config" column, these are the new player counts:
(The 125 players limit is missing in that column, only relevant for the
twolakes map)

Discussed that with Lewis.
Fuze liked the Didier map without the real france more...
So here it is. It won't get added to the playlist, the france version
stays in the playlist.
(Unrelated: Also quickly changed "Europe (classic)" to Europe (Classic)"
to match with "Britannia (Classic)")

## Pathfinding with HPA*
Hi! The primary objective of this PR is to replace per-tile A* with
hierarchical pathfinding - HPA*. In practice, this means we create an
abstract graph on top of the actual map with far fewer points and use it
to decide on general path structure. Only then we go back to tile-level
and build path between selected waypoints. This speeds up long distance
pathfinding by over 1000x in some cases. To make the review easier, it
comes with a benchmark and visual playground.
## PREPROCESSING
H part of HPA* means "hierarchical" and requires preprocessing.
This PR includes pre-processing as part inside `new Game()` constructor.
It takes about 135ms for `giantworldmap` on my machine, which increases
the effective initialization from ~95ms to ~230ms. This time could be
reduced in different ways, which are **out of scope** for this PR.
After confirming the initialization time is bearable on low-end devices,
I argue merging this PR as-is is acceptable tradeoff. It creates small
lag at the beginning of a round but pays for itself in the first minute
of the match.
## Nerdy details
**Architecture**
- HPA*-style hierarchical pathfinding
- 32×32 sectors on minimap with gateway nodes on borders
- Gateway graph built via BFS during preprocessing
- Water component optimization skips unreachable gateway pairs
- A* on gateway graph → local A* within sectors → Bresenham path
smoothing
- Minimap upscaling identical to currently used in MiniAStar
**Key Optimizations**
- Typed arrays instead of high-level primitives
- Stamp-based visited tracking (no need to recreate buffers, O(1)
clearing)
- Optional - enabled by default - caching of tile paths between gateways
- Line of sight smoothing for the final path
## Review Focus
Play with included tools, benchmark and visualization. Pathfinding
should be safe to merge as a black box - you do not need to understand
the details. Outcomes can be tested empirically in-game. Visualize (and
share!) edge cases with included playground. Confirm the 100x speedup is
real with benchmark.
If you plan to dive into the code, I suggest the following order:
- Pathfinding abstraction in `src/core/pathfinding/`
- Pathfinding tests in `tests/core/pathfinding/`
- NavMesh in `src/core/pathfinding/navmesh/` + integration with
`Game.ts`
- Benchmark in `tests/pathfinding/benchmark/`
Do not look at playground's code, it has been created with a clanker.
The design is 100% mine and I spent way too long polishing it, but I
haven't even once edited the code manually. There is probably no
abstraction whatsoever, just do not look at the code, let it play.
## Core Changes
#### Pathfinding (`src/core/pathfinding/navmesh/`)
- HPA* + refinement -> three phased pathfinding: A* over the graph ->
naive path -> refinement
- comes with A* and BFS optimized for for specific needs
#### Pre-Processing (`src/core/pathfinding/navmesh/`)
- identify water bodies to avoid pathfinding between disconnected nodes
- create high-level graph of gateways on top of tile map
#### Abstraction (`src/core/pathfinding/`)
- common `PathFinder` interface that can return full path and also act
as state machine (`.next()`)
- adapters for both new and legacy algorithm with fallback to legacy if
navigation mesh not available
#### Benchmark (`tests/pathfinding/benchmark/`)
- `npx tsx tests/pathfinding/benchmark/run.ts` - no guesswork, numbers
- `npx tsx tests/pathfinding/benchmark/run.ts --synthetic` - 1000s of
synthetic paths
- `npx tsc tests/pathfinding/benchmark/generate.ts` - generate more as
needed, test new maps
- includes ONE synthetic scenario to avoid PR bloat, generate more
locally / later
#### Playground (`tests/pathfinding/playground/`)
- `npx tsx tests/pathfinding/playground/server.ts` - visualize paths
with both new and legacy algorithm
## Benchmarks

## Description:
We didn't have a river map and we didn't have a map with a crazy size.
So I made a "Amazon River" map with a crazy size.
280 x 5536!
21 nations based on real locations.
Should be interesting gameplay because you don't have many attack
options, your only escape is the river.
The land tiles size is similar to the achiran and iceland map.

/>
Because the map is so wide, it looked really ugly stretched in the
thumbnails. So I added some CSS which removes the thumbnail stretching
of the Amazon River map. We can also use this logic for other thumbnails
which shouldn't get stretched.
In `Maps.ts`, `PublicLobby.ts` and `GameInfoModal.ts`.

Didier map for the big french youtuber Fuze which already published
several OpenFront videos.
I took the real france, cut away the bordering countries and made it
look like Didier 😄
Gave it eyes, hands and feet.
Made sure we have some rivers, also put Corsica in the right bottom
corner!
It's quite large. Similar to the europe map. Has 42 nations (38 french
cities and 4 funny custom nations for the youtuber).
Made with [TsProphets map
generator](https://github.com/TsProphet94/OpenFrontMapGenerator), QGIS
and GIMP.
For public games I put a rare map frequenzy of 2 because most people
probably don't know Fuze.
@ibnhalwa from discord gave some insider knowledge about Fuze (He's
french, I'm not).

This map could be very interesting in team games. One hydro will destroy
an entire island.

Introduces the Strait of Hormuz section in the Persian Gulf as a map!
This map is actually crazy fun to play on because of how the water
narrows to a small strait where control is necessary otherwise enemies
can transport boat to you easily. I figured a strategic map based on
modern-ish day conflicts would fit the theme, but man it's a great map
to play on.

## Description:
- clarify the map generator readme size recommendation is for land tile
count, not px size (and that it is for performance, not a hard limit).
Add note about average map land tile count to provide more context.
- Add output files list to provide reference for where to find land tile
count (for some reason the script doesn't output it, will probably open
a new PR to add it to the output of the generator)
I must have missed some context when first documenting this, oops!

Resolves#2602
## Description:
tldr: `npm run docs:map-generator`
Adds documentation to the `map-generator` go code.
This has no functional changes, other than the renaming of the package.
I used the github url, though this can be set to anything as long as it
contains a `.` so that the docs parse it correctly. Go doc best
practices seem a little verbose and terse, but attempted to comply
Future Facing (to get these docs viewable without running locally):
- Wait until the -http issue is sorted, then these are easy to
statically host alongside builds
- Could use the legacy `godoc`
- Could do formatting after outputting the `txt` output
## Change List:
- Add documentation to all types/fns in map-generator go code
- Ensure this outputs correctly with `go doc`
- Add `docs:map-generator` command to package.json. This runs `go doc`
in `map-generator` w/ appropriate flags to generate full documentation.
(see notes in readme)
- rename `map-generator` module to work around pkgsite assuming all
packages without a . are stdlib (this makes `-http` work at all)
- Add new sections to README and update existing sections
- Add additional references to locations in the primary code base where
things can be found
- Update documentation in the ts theme files to add output color
mappings - this ensures that everything needed to trace the input file
-> in game rendered asset is fully documented.

## Description:
This PR removes the nation strength. Reasoning:
- It is currently unused. The backstory can be found in #2498
- It forces map-makers to do balancing work, which is probably not a
good idea
- It increases map-making work
- It increases nation balancing complexity by a lot (we need to have all
the json files in mind)
- It makes humans avoid map areas completely because there is always
that one, same, strong nation
- The map lead Nikola123 wants to "not deal with the stupid nations and
their balancing"
If the goal of nation strength was to make them feel different I would
suggest a nation personality system. Nations that love to boat, love to
ally, love to nuke, love to fullsend, etc.

Resolves#2594
## Description:
- Added an optional `--maps` flag to the map-generator that allows
passing a subset of maps to process.
- Updated `README.md` w/ documentation for using the new flag
Used the [go/flag](https://pkg.go.dev/flag) package.
Running without the flag, or with no arguments matches existing behavior
of processing all the maps defined in `main.go`
`go run .`
`go run . --maps=`
New behavior is triggered to process a subset of maps by passing the
`--maps` flag. Multiple maps are defined in a comma-separated list
`go run . --maps=world,africa`
Or a single map (useful for map development)
`go run . --maps=fourislands`
If an invalid map is passed, the process aborts and renders the error
```bash
go run . --maps=invalidmapname
Error generating terrain maps: map "invalidmapname" is not defined
exit status 1
```
By using the default flag package, we get `--help` for free:
```bash
go run . --help
Usage of <path-to-exe>/exe/map-generator:
-maps string
optional comma-separated list of maps to process. ex: --maps=world,eastasia,big_plains
```
I do not write GO often. Gemini contributed to this syntax.

I'd like to submit some PRs in the future to add additional options for
logging and debugging to the map-generator, however I don't want to
introduce any code style changes in feature requests.
## Description:
I noticed there was not any style guide or formatting being done for the
go files, and went with the simplest built-in approach w/ [go
fmt](https://go.dev/blog/gofmt)
- Adds a `format:map-generator` npm command that will run the default
`go fmt` in the `map-generator` directory to format the go code.
- Runs the formatter and commits the changes to `main.go` and
`map_generator.go`
- Updates the `map-generator` README:
- Updated location for generated files
- Updated Links to use markdown links
- Add `info.json` example
- Add in-game enabling instructions with list of files to modify
- Add development tools section with format command

## Description:
This PR removes the `map-generator/generated` directory to avoid
confusion.
The current map generation process (`map-generator/main.go`) outputs map
data to:
- `../resources/maps` (for normal maps)
- `../tests/testdata/maps` (for test maps)
The `generated` directory is not used anywhere in the current codebase.
Keeping the unused `map-generator/generated` directory may cause
confusion for contributors or users who expect it to be part of the
active map pipeline. Removing it clarifies that only `resources/maps`
and `testdata/maps` are valid output directories.
No functional changes are introduced.
