To increase variety a bit more I present: The "crowded" public game
modifier :)
It basically simulates a crazy youtuber lobby. Cramp a lot of players on
a small map 😄
I think its fun, exciting and you actually need skill to manage the
chaos.
5% of public games get this modifier, but because we remove the modifier
for big maps its more like 2.5% (should be something special)

#2919
In GameManager.tick(), when a game becomes active but hasn't started, a
setTimeout for game.start() is scheduled with a 2-second delay. If the
game finishes or is cancelled within those 2 seconds, game.end() is
called, which clears the existing interval. However:
1.The 2-second timeout still fires. game.start() executes.
2. A NEW setInterval is created for turn execution.
3.Since the game is already ending/finished, it's removed from
GameManager.games, but the interval continues to run forever in the
background

## Description:
I analyzed the avg fill time of team games (past 30 days) and was able
to confirm what people in the main discord said: Duos / Trios / Quads
fill slower.
Might be something for v29.
| Game Mode | Games | Avg Fill Time |
|-----------|-------|---------------|
| **FFA** (Excluding ranked) | 53,654 | **29s** |
| Team: 2 teams | 3,379 | 33s |
| Team: 3 teams | 3,291 | 32s |
| Team: 4 teams | 3,242 | 31s |
| Team: 5 teams | 3,364 | 32s |
| Team: 6 teams | 3,381 | 31s |
| Team: 7 teams | 3,227 | 31s |
| Team: Duos | 3,295 | **43s** |
| Team: Trios | 3,300 | 39s |
| Team: Quads | 3,299 | 37s |
| Team: Humans Vs Nations | 101 | **24s** |
Therefore I propose to decrease the chance of Duos, Trios and Quads
(especially Duos).
Also, increase the chance of HumansVsNations because its special and
unlike all the other team modes.
| Team Config | Previous | New |
|-------------|----------|-----|
| 2 teams | 10% | 10% |
| 3 teams | 10% | 10% |
| 4 teams | 10% | 10% |
| 5 teams | 10% | 10% |
| 6 teams | 10% | 10% |
| 7 teams | 10% | 10% |
| **Duos** | 10% | **5%** ↓ |
| **Trios** | 10% | **7.5%** ↓ |
| **Quads** | 10% | **7.5%** ↓ |
| **HumansVsNations** | 10% | **20%** ↑ |

## Description:
1. In JoinPrivateLobbyModal the nation count loading was missing. That
caused the team preview UI to show different player counts compared to
the HostLobbyModal. For example it showed 0/0 nations for the
HumansVsNations team mode (instead of 2/2):
<img width="726" height="217" alt="Screenshot 2026-01-16 211337"

/>
2. Turn down HvN difficulty from Impossible to Hard.
We steamrolled over Hard nations in the playtest (at least in two of the
three games) because we donated lots of troops to each other.
But after some API data research I noticed that only 33% of players in
public team games ever use the donate functionality.
And we probably have less skilled players in public games than in the
playtest.
So its probably better to use the Hard difficulty to ensure balanced
gameplay.
I know, I'm overthinking this 😂

We might want to add this to v29 to have a third possible public game
modifier from the beginning on 😄 Would be fun
- Add starting gold option (0 to 1_000_000_000 allowed, also applies to
nations)
- Add gold multiplier option (0.1 to 1000 allowed, also applies to
nations and bots)
- Add third public game modifier (3% chance of starting with 5M gold)
- Why 5M? It's enough gold to massively change the game start but not
enough to insta-hydro someone (launcher + hydro is 6M)

Resolves#2868
## Description:
This PR addresses a critical memory leak in the Master server process
(causing ~30GB RAM usage).
The issue was caused by `setInterval` calling `fetchLobbies()` every
100ms. When `fetchLobbies` took longer than 100ms to complete (due to
network latency or load), requests would pile up indefinitely, creating
a massive queue of pending Promises and open sockets.
I have refactored the polling logic into a generic `startPolling`
utility (in `src/server/PollingLoop.ts`) that uses a recursive
`setTimeout` pattern. This ensures that the next `fetchLobbies` call is
only scheduled *after* the previous one has completed (successfully or
failed), preventing any request pile-up.

Changes URL embeds within other platforms, e.g. Discord, WhatsApp & X.
Updates game URLs to `/game/<code>` instead of `/#join=<code>` (required
for embedded URLs). An added benefit of this is that you would be able
to change a url from `openfront.io/game/RQDUy8nP?replay` to
`api.openfront.io/game/RQDUy8nP?replay` (add api. In front) and be in
the right place for the API data.
Updates URLs when joining/leaving private lobbies
Appends a random string to the end of the URL when inside a private
lobby and options change - this is to force discord to update the
embedded details.
Updates URL in different game states to ?lobby / ?live and ?replay.
These do nothing other than being used as a _cache-busting_ solution.

Should fix the broken 1v1 on staging. The issue was that we had multiple
staging environments, and the matchmaker would often route a player to a
game on a different staging server, so the client couldn't find the

players & servers that have the same instance id.

## Description:
Added a public game modifier system. It causes that
5% of public games are played on the compact version of the map
10% of public games have "Random Spawn" activated
Percentages can easily get changed via `DefaultConfig`.
We can also easily add more modifiers.
Modifiers can stack, so in rare cases you will play on a compact map
with random spawn 😄
More variety!
### "Compact Map" modifier implementation
- With the "Compact Map" modifier the lobby max player count gets
reduced to 25% and only 25% of the regular bots and only 25% of the
regular nations will spawn (because the map has only 25% of its regular
size)
- In private lobbies and singleplayer the nation reduction happens too
(When "Compact Map" is enabled).
### Restrictions
- Duos/Trios/Quads team modes do not get Random Spawn (defeats the
purpose)
- Maps with smallest player count < 50 do not get Compact Map in team
games (not enough players after the reduction to 25%). I have calculated
all the possible max player counts.
### How it looks like
Random Spawn modifier:

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/2f729da9-80c3-4548-8205-71129da2a76a"
/>
Very rare case: Two modifiers at the same time and only 10 max players
have been chosen from `[GameMapType.FaroeIslands]: [20, 15, 10]`.
Because of the 75% reduction in player count only 3 players are allowed
(3 is the minimum). I think its funny that you can play a 1v1v1 in rare
occasions 😄

/>
### Funny side-effect
Team games with random spawn. That will be interesting. No more "Who is
better in donating troops to the frontline". Instead you have to heavily
coordinate with your teammates.

## 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`.

## Description:
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).

Changes:
- Added a `Player::canAttackPlayer(other)` function to determine whether
a player can be attacked.
- This function is now used in most places where a fight can occur:
- AttackExecution (land attacks)
- Naval invasion
- Warship fight
- Nukes can't be thrown during the truce
- Immunity only affect human players. Nations and bot will fight as
usual, and can be fought against.
- The immunity timer uses minutes in the modal window.
UI:
- The immunity phase is displayed with a timer bar at the top. This is
from the original PR, to be discussed if it's not deemed visible enough:

an entire island.

Fixes#2758
## Description:
This PR migrates lobby configuration updates from the HTTP PUT
`/game/:id` endpoint to a WebSocket-based intent flow.
The lobby creator is already authenticated via the game WebSocket, so
updating configuration through intents removes redundant authentication
and aligns with existing real-time lobby actions such as `kick_player`
and `toggle_pause`.
## Changes Made
- Added `update_game_config` WebSocket intent schema
- Wired client → transport → server intent handling
- Refactored `putGameConfig()` to emit WebSocket intent instead of HTTP
fetch
- Preserved all existing validation, partial-update semantics, and
client-side debouncing
- Left the REST endpoint untouched for backward compatibility
## Testing
- All existing automated tests pass
- Manual verification completed:
- Lobby creator can update all lobby settings
- Non-creators are rejected
- Updates are rejected after game start
- Bots slider debounce (300ms) remains intact
- No `PUT /api/game/:id` requests are made from the lobby UI

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:
**HumansVsNations is back!**
The original PR had an issue: only the nations listed in the map’s
`manifest.json` were being spawned, which resulted in completely
unbalanced games.
What did I change with this PR?
- The number of humans and nations is now always the same.
- If a map contains too many nations, we take a random subset.
- If a map doesn’t contain enough nations, we dynamically add additional
ones. These get random spawn locations, and their names are taken from
the new name generator `NationNames.ts`. The name generator was taken
from the closed PR #2245 (idea from @VariableVince).
These changes apply to private lobbies and singleplayer as well. In
singleplayer, you now simply play a 1-vs-1 against a nation.
For public lobbies, we use 50% of the regular team-game player count.
The remaining 50% are nations.
We are also using the Hard difficulty for HumansVsNations.
At the moment, it’s important that nations cheat a little because humans
can donate troops, whereas nations cannot, at least not yet. In the
future, we may make that work.
We might need to adjust the difficulty or do fine-tuning depending on
the humans’ win rate in production. Ideally, we want a ~50% win rate;
otherwise, the mode may become boring. Over time, humans will likely
develop strategies that nations can’t counter, in which case we’ll need
to improve the nation AI.
Here is a screenshot showing that the number of nations now matches the
number of humans in the private lobby UI:

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/cb4ac6f6-13cc-452c-8cc5-7a500670d7f2"
/>
The `PuplicLobby` display was a bit bugged for HumansVsNations:
<img width="532" height="191" alt="Screenshot 2025-12-23 221832"

Resolves#2491
## Description:
Adds pause/unpause functionality for private multiplayer games. Only the
lobby creator can pause the game, and all players see a pause overlay
when the game is paused.
**Key features:**
- Lobby creator sees pause/play button in control panel (alongside
existing singleplayer/replay controls)
- Server validates that only lobby creator can toggle pause
- All players see "Game paused by Lobby Creator" overlay when paused
- Game state freezes (no turn execution) while paused
- Unpause resumes normal gameplay
**Implementation details:**
- Server-side pause state (`isPaused`) prevents turn execution during
pause
- Each client receives `isLobbyCreator` flag in `GameStartInfo` to
show/hide pause button
- Added `TogglePauseIntent` that broadcasts to all clients via
`NoOpExecution`
- New `PauseOverlay` component (shows in single player also)

## Description:
1. Using the wording `"Nation"`, `"FakeHuman"` and `"NPC"` at the same
time is confusing.
So I renamed every mention of `"FakeHuman"` and `"NPC"` in the entire
project to `"Nation"`. Just like they are called ingame.
2. `BotBehavior.ts` was originally intended for sharing the logic
between nations and bots.
But at the moment, the logic there isn't really shared and it's
basically just about attacking.
So I renamed `BotBehavior.ts` to `AiAttackBehavior.ts`. I use "Ai" to
indicate that this file is used by bots AND nations.
3. Moved `execuction/utils/AllianceBehavior.ts` to
`execuction/nation/NationAllianceBehavior.ts` to make sure everybody
understands that this file is not about alliances in general. It's just
about nations and how they handle alliances.
4. Removed `difficultyModifier` from `DefaultConfig`. It's unused and I
think we usually want to finetune the difficulty instead of using that
method.
5. Added `assertNever` in all `switch (difficulty)` default cases.
