Zixer1andGitHub a2321eb824 balance(doomsday): floor the drain at 5% of max instead of wiping to zero (#4587)
## Description:

The Doomsday Clock drain wiped a caught side's troops (and warship
health) to **zero**, an effective death sentence, so a brief dip below
the bar was unrecoverable. Floor the drain at **5% of each max**
(`drainFloorPercent`) for both troops and warships: a doomed side is
crippled, not eliminated, and recovers if it climbs back above the bar.
The rising territory bar still forces a finish (a 5%-strength side is
trivial to conquer, and the leader is drain-exempt).

- Config: `drainFloorPercent` (5), applied to both drains.
- Execution: clamp troop + warship-health removal to what sits above the
floor (integer-only, deterministic).
- HUD: the Collapsing rate is shown net of the floor.
- Tests: drain-to-zero / warship-scuttle cases updated to the floor +
added coverage.

Zixer1andGitHub 4ce57efbe2 Rebalance Doomsday Clock: late-game stalemate-breaker (10min grace + wave squeeze), slower troop drain, gentler-but-steeper warship attrition (#4518)
Resolves #<add your approved & assigned issue number>

## Description:

Rebalances the Doomsday Clock so it acts as a **late-game
stalemate-breaker** rather than an early-game culler, softens how fast
it removes troops and warships, and makes the HUD countdown clearer.

**Clock schedule (all presets):**
- A flat **10-minute grace** at 0% required share — the early game is
decided by combat, not the clock.
- Then a 6-wave squeeze at accelerating levels (4 / 9 / 16 / 26 / 40 /
55%) with short pauses, reaching the final 55% at each preset's cap:
**45 / 35 / 25 / 15 min** for slow / normal / fast / veryfast.
- `WaveSchedule` `rampSeconds`/`pauseSeconds` are now **per-wave
arrays**, so the curve can be shaped (gentle early, steeper late)
instead of one uniform ramp. `requiredBasisPoints` and the HUD companion
`doomsdayClockWaveState` walk the per-wave segments in lockstep.

**Troop drain:** warn window `10s → 30s`, drain eased (`2%→5%` over
`90s`), so a caught side takes ~2 minutes to wipe instead of ~1.

**Warship attrition:** warships get their own gentler start plus a
**convex** decay curve — a ship caught when its side is first doomed
lasts about as long as troops, but the rate ramps up steeply so a side
at full attrition still loses its fleet in ~2s. Adds a `curveExponent`
argument to `doomsdayClockDrain` (1 = linear, used for troops; higher =
convex, used for ships).

**Determinism:** the drain curve is **integer-only** (fixed-point power,
no floats), so the floored per-tick loss is bit-identical on every
client in the lockstep sim. The linear troop path keeps its exact
existing integer form; only the convex warship path is reshaped.

**HUD countdown clarity:** the clock readout now shows a live countdown
in both states — `Will reach 16% in M:SS` while the bar is actively
climbing, and `Starts rising to 26% in M:SS` during a pause (previously
`Next 26% in …`, which read as if it jumped there instantly). Backed by
a new `secondsToTarget` field on the shared wave state so the sim and
HUD stay in agreement. All display text goes through `translateText()` /
`en.json`.

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/da74bd05-0b9a-4aec-bbf5-e7380fbda88e"
/>

**Danger skull:** while a side is below the bar in the warn window, its
on-map skull now blinks progressively faster as the countdown runs out
(accelerating to the moment the drain begins), then holds steady once it
is actually draining — a clearer "you are about to be hit" cue.

Rationale: the previous schedule removed players heavily in the first
half of a match and could leave a drawn-out endgame. Holding the clock
at 0% early keeps the opening about fighting, and concentrating its
pressure in the back half reserves it for actually breaking stalemates.
Values are tuning starting points and easy to adjust in
`DoomsdayClock.ts` / the config defaults.

7fa81c6bb9 perf: reduce core live-memory footprint by 45% on large maps (#4507)
## Summary

Reduces the simulation's steady-state memory footprint. On Giant World
Map at 20 game-minutes (12 000 ticks, 400 bots, seed `perf-default`),
live memory after a full GC drops **293 MB → 161 MB (−45%)**; unforced
peak heap drops **326 MB → 165 MB**. The simulation also runs ~10%
faster (85 → 94 ticks/s). The final game-state hash is **bit-identical**
(`57830793797434300`) — no behavior change.

## Measurement (first commit)

The full-game perf harness gains a footprint mode:

- `--footprint` — forces a full GC at every `--window` boundary and
records the live heap / ArrayBuffer / RSS curve across the game
(requires `NODE_OPTIONS=--expose-gc`).
- `--snapshot-at 0,2000,12000` — writes V8 `.heapsnapshot` files at
chosen ticks.
- `HeapSnapshotRetainers.ts` — attributes every heap node to its nearest
meaningfully-named retainer (e.g. `PlayerImpl._tiles`), plus prints
retainer chains for all nodes ≥128 KB. `HeapSnapshotSummary.ts` is a
streaming fallback for snapshots too large to `JSON.parse`.

Baseline attribution at tick 12 000: player `_tiles`/`_borderTiles` Sets
**83 MB**, GameMap `refToX`/`refToY` lookup tables **38 MB**, two
duplicate 30.5 MB visited-scratch arrays, trade-ship stepper paths **15
MB**, a construction-only flood-fill queue **9.5 MB**.

## Optimizations

**Map-sized buffers (second commit):**
- `GameMap.x()/y()` compute `ref % width` / `(ref / width) | 0` instead
of reading two per-tile Uint16 tables (−38 MB). The arithmetic is
cheaper than the tables' random-access cache misses — this is where the
speedup comes from.
- `PlayerExecution` and `SpatialQuery` each kept their own per-game
generation-stamped visited `Uint32Array`; both now share one via
`TileTraversalScratch` (−30 MB).
- `PathFinderStepper` stores numeric paths as `Uint32Array` (half the
bytes; steppers hold their full path for a unit's whole journey).
- `ConnectedComponents` frees its flood-fill queue after `initialize()`.

**Player tile sets (third commit):**
- New `TileSet`: insertion-ordered set of tile refs backed by a dense
`Uint32Array` plus an open-addressing hash index — ~12 bytes/element vs
~34 for a native `Set<number>`. Deletes tombstone; compaction is
deferred while iteration is in progress so positions never shift under
an iterator.
- Iteration semantics match `Set` exactly (insertion order, entries
added mid-iteration visited, deleted ones skipped, delete+re-add moves
to end) — the simulation relies on this order for determinism, and the
unchanged hash confirms it.
- `Player.borderTiles()` now returns `ReadonlyTileSet` (a native `Set`
still satisfies it structurally); `GameRunner.playerBorderTiles` copies
into a real `Set` since that result crosses the worker boundary via
structured clone.

## Footprint curve (giant world map, live MB after forced GC)

| checkpoint | before | after |
|---|---|---|
| spawn end | 20 + 100 buf | 20 + 55 buf |
| tick 6301 | 119 + 161 buf | 29 + 127 buf |
| tick 12301 | 130 + 161 buf | 32 + 129 buf |

## Validation

- Final hash `57830793797434300` identical across baseline / round 1 /
round 2 runs (12 000 ticks).
- Full suite passes (1798 + 126 tests), including new `TileSet` tests:
order semantics, mutation-during-iteration parity with `Set`, tombstone
compaction, and a 20 000-op randomized differential test against native
`Set`.
- Runs recorded in
`tests/perf/output/footprint-{baseline,round1,round2}-giant.txt`.

Zixer1andGitHub 66063d6178 feat(doomsday-clock): decay warships alongside troops for doomed sides (#4499)
## Description: 

Follow-up to #4469.

The Doomsday Clock drains a doomed side's troops but leaves its navy
untouched, so a coastal or island turtle can sit below the bar
indefinitely on warship defense, exactly the stall the clock is meant to
break.

This decays the warships of a flagged (sub-threshold, non-leader) side
on the same ramp as its troops:

- Each warship loses a percentage of its (veterancy-adjusted) max health
per second, reusing `doomsdayClockDrain`, so the fleet and the army
bleed in lockstep and reach zero together (~55s from full at the default
rate).
- Destruction passes **no attacker**, so it routes through
`UnitImpl.delete` as an environmental loss: no kill credit, no
boat-destroy stats, no veterancy granted. Scoring integrity is
preserved.
- Healing is suppressed for a flagged owner
(`WarshipExecution.healWarship` early-returns), so the decay actually
sinks the fleet instead of being out-healed at a port. Inert when the
mode is off, since the mark is never set.
- The leader's fleet is spared, same as its troops.

No new config: warships reuse the existing drain curve. No HUD change,
since warships count as part of the side's forces alongside troops.

Tested: 4 new unit tests (same-ramp decay, no-kill-credit destruction,
leader spared, warn-window grace), the full `DoomsdayClockExecution` and
`Warship` suites, the whole test suite (1784 passing), `build-prod`, and
a headless full-game sim run (resolves cleanly with the decay live,
deterministic).

20c81ca5f6 perf: cut core-sim GC churn another 36% (75% cumulative) (#4498)
## Summary

Round 3 of GC-churn reduction (follow-up to #4494 and #4496). All
changes are **behavior-preserving** — final game-state hash unchanged on
three seeded runs.

### Changes

| Site | Change | Churn target |
|---|---|---|
| `MiniMapTransformer` | Path upscaling works in pure numeric
coordinates and emits main-map `TileRef`s directly, replacing three
intermediate `Cell`-object arrays per path (cell path → scaled path →
smoothed path → final map). Identical arithmetic, so identical rounding
and identical tiles. | ~7.1 GB |
| `ShoreCoercingTransformer` | Reused neighbor buffers instead of
`neighbors()` arrays; no per-call `{water, original}` objects.
Tie-breaking preserved (helpers share the unified N,S,W,E order since
#4495). | ~1.5 GB |
| `diffPlayerUpdate` | Allocation-free all-equal fast path. Runs per
player per tick and usually returns `null` (gold/troops/tiles travel via
packed arrays), but previously allocated the diff object + a closure
first. Field list matches the diff exactly. | ~2.6 GB |
| Large-`Set` iteration | `for..of` over a `Set` allocates an
iterator-result object per element — significant on 100k-tile border
sets. `calculateClusters`, `calculateBoundingBox` (indexed fast path for
arrays too) and `getAttackFrontTiles` (also dropped its `neighbors()`
arrays) now use `Set.forEach`. | ~3.6 GB |

### Results (Giant World Map, 400 bots, 12,000 ticks, seed
`perf-default`)

| Metric | Before | After | vs. original (pre-#4494) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sampled allocations (incl. collected) | 37.8 GB | **24.1 GB (−36%)** |
97.7 GB (**−75%**) |
| Ticks/sec | 82 | **88** | 66 (+33%) |
| Mean / p99 tick | 12.2 / 36.0 ms | 11.3 / 34.8 ms | 15.2 / 49.9 ms |
| Peak heap | 762 MB | 529 MB | 758 MB |

9e9c608053 perf: cut core-sim GC churn another 36% (61% cumulative) (#4496)
## Summary

Round 2 of GC-churn reduction, attacking the next tier of allocation
sources found by the profiling harness from #4494. All changes are
**behavior-preserving** — the simulation is bit-identical (final hash
unchanged on three seeded runs).

### Changes

| Site | Change | Churn target |
|---|---|---|
| `Player.units()` / `Game.units()` | Rest parameter → fixed-arity +
array overloads (`units()`, `units(types[])`, `units(t1, t2?, t3?)`).
The rest array was allocated on **every call** of one of the hottest
functions in the sim. Spread call sites (`units(...Structures.types)`)
now pass the array directly. `GameImpl.units()` builds one flat array
instead of `Array.from().flatMap()` per-player intermediates. | ~18 GB |
| `PlayerExecution` cluster flood fill | Results are plain `TileRef[]`
in mark order instead of `Set<TileRef>` — the generation-stamped visited
array already deduplicates, and consumers only iterate/measure. DFS
stack reused across fills. | ~3.7 GB |
| `SpatialQuery.bfsNearest` | Fused generation-stamped BFS with per-game
scratch buffers (`WeakMap`-keyed, same pattern as `PlayerExecution`)
instead of materializing a `Set` of the entire search area per query.
Identical traversal and tie-breaking. | ~2.2 GB |
| `NationWarshipBehavior` ship tracking | Single-pass loops instead of
`filter().forEach()`; dropped defensive `Array.from(set)` copies
(deleting the current entry while iterating a `Set` is well-defined). |
~1.4 GB |

### Results (Giant World Map, 400 bots, 12,000 ticks ≈ 20 game-min, seed
`perf-default`)

| Metric | Before | After | vs. pre-#4494 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sampled allocations (incl. collected) | 59.2 GB | **37.8 GB (−36%)** |
97.7 GB (**−61%**) |

| Mean / p99 tick | 13.6 / 39.2 ms | 12.2 / 36.0 ms | 15.2 / 49.9 ms |

`units()` no longer appears in the top-30 allocator list at all. The
remaining leaders (possible round 3): the minimap pathfinding `Cell`
pipeline (~8.5 GB), `diffPlayerUpdate`/`toFullUpdate` per-tick
serialization (~4.6 GB), and iterator allocations (~3.3 GB).

22d5aba5ae refactor: standardize cardinal-neighbor iteration on neighbors() N,S,W,E order (#4495)
## Summary

Follow-up to #4494. That PR added `forEachNeighborNSWE` as a third
neighbor iterator because the existing allocation-free helpers
(`forEachNeighbor`, `neighbors4`) visit in W,E,N,S order while
`neighbors()` visits N,S,W,E — and substituting one for the other
changes simulation behavior at order-sensitive call sites.

This PR removes that duplication by standardizing on **one order
everywhere**: `forEachNeighbor` and `neighbors4` now visit in the same
N,S,W,E order as `neighbors()`, and `forEachNeighborNSWE` is deleted.

## ⚠️ Intentional behavior change

Callers of the flipped helpers that are order-sensitive now make
different (equally valid) decisions:

- `AttackExecution.addNeighbors` — PRNG values are drawn per neighbor
while building the conquest frontier, so attack expansion patterns
differ
- `AttackExecution.handleDeadDefender` — a dead defender's tiles go to
the *first-visited* adjacent player
- `WarshipExecution.bestNeighborToward` — distance ties break by visit
order
- `PlayerExecution` surrounded-cluster flood fill — set insertion order
propagates to conquer order

Game outcomes for a given seed differ from previous builds (verified:
the 12k-tick reference run ends with 31 players alive vs 24 before).
Determinism across clients *within* a build is unaffected — all clients
run the same code, so there is no desync risk. Replays/verification
pinned to old hashes will not match this build.

New reference hashes for the headless perf harness (seed
`perf-default`):

| Run | Final hash |
|---|---|
| giantworldmap, 12,000 ticks | `57830793797434300` |
| giantworldmap, 2,000 ticks | `55125379638382860` |
| world, 1,800 ticks | `32337437717390864` |

## Verification

- [x] Full suite green (1,901 tests), including new exact-order contract
tests: `forEachNeighbor` and `neighbors4` must match `neighbors()`
contents **and order** for every tile
- [x] 20-game-minute Giant World Map benchmark: no perf regression (73
ticks/sec, GC 1.2% of wall, allocation profile unchanged)
- [x] Order-sensitivity audit of every `forEachNeighbor`/`neighbors4`
call site (sensitive ones listed above; the rest are booleans, counts,
or min/max accumulations)

5e4b2791aa perf: reduce core-sim GC churn 42% and add GC-churn profiling to the perf harness (#4494)
## Summary

Reduces core-simulation GC churn by **42%** on a 20-game-minute Giant
World Map run, and extends the headless full-game perf harness so churn
is measurable and regressions are visible.

### 1. GC-churn measurement (`tests/perf/fullgame/GcProfiler.ts`)

`npm run perf:game` now reports:

- **GC pauses** by kind (minor/major/incremental) via a
`PerformanceObserver` on `'gc'` entries, bucketed into tick windows by
timestamp (V8 only delivers these entries on a timer task, so they're
flushed after the run)
- **Allocation rate** per `--window N` ticks (default 1000) from
used-heap deltas sampled every tick, so churn can be tracked across game
phases
- **Top allocating functions** from the V8 sampling heap profiler with
`includeObjectsCollectedBy{Major,Minor}GC` — i.e. actual churn including
short-lived garbage, not live memory — plus a `.heapprofile` loadable in
Chrome DevTools (Memory → Allocation sampling)

New flags: `--window N`, `--no-gc-profile`, `--no-alloc-profile`.

### 2. Allocation reductions in the hot paths it found

| Site | Change |
|---|---|
| `GameMap.bfs` | inline neighbor enumeration instead of an array per
visited tile |
| `GameMap`/`Game` | new `forEachNeighborNSWE` — allocation-free
iterator matching `neighbors()` N,S,W,E order for order-sensitive
callers (`forEachNeighbor` visits W,E,N,S, so substituting it would
change sim behavior) |
| `PlayerImpl.nearby` / `sharesBorderWith` / `shoreReachableNeighbors` |
no per-call neighbor arrays; no materialized shore-tile array |
| `PlayerImpl.units(types)` | gather into a reusable scratch buffer,
return one exact-size slice (still a fresh snapshot array per call) |
| `AiAttackBehavior.maybeAttack` | single pass over border neighbors
replacing the `flatMap`/`filter`/`map` chain over every border tile |
| `AiAttackBehavior.isBorderingNukedTerritory` | reusable `neighbors4`
buffer with early exit |
| `SharedWaterCache.build` | allocation-free neighbor iteration |
| `SpatialQuery.bfsNearest` | first-minimum scan instead of
collect-then-stable-sort (identical result incl. tie-breaking) |

### Results (Giant World Map, 400 bots, 12,000 ticks ≈ 20 game-minutes,
seed `perf-default`)

| Metric | Before | After |
|---|---|---|
| Sampled allocations (incl. collected) | 97.7 GB | **56.9 GB (−42%)** |
| GC count / total pause | 1,682 / 3,313 ms (1.8% of wall) | 1,058 /
2,087 ms (1.2%) |
| Ticks/sec | 66 | 70 |
| p99 / max tick | 49.9 ms / 988 ms | 43.5 ms / 689 ms |
| Ticks over 100 ms budget | 31 | 19 |

## Determinism

Every rewrite preserves exact iteration order (the new NSWE iterator
exists precisely for the order-sensitive sites). Verified by identical
final game-state hashes on three runs: Giant World Map 12,000 ticks
(`67286276735690560`), Giant World Map 2,000 ticks, and World 1,800
ticks.

## Test plan

- [x] Full suite green (1,896 tests)
- [x] New tests: `forEachNeighborNSWE` order contract vs `neighbors()`
over every tile; `units()` filtering semantics (insertion order,
fresh-array guarantee, duplicate types, Set path)
- [x] Final-hash equality on 3 seeded headless runs (2 maps)

Zixer1andGitHub 78ef7b56fd feat(doomsday-clock): battle-royale style zone gamemode (#4469)
Resolves Issue #4463

## Description:

An optional game mode that (almost) guarantees a finish instead of
letting late-game
stalemates drag on.
Originally called sudden death, renamed to Doomsday clock

Once enabled, every side (each player in FFA, each whole team in team
modes)
must hold a rising share of the map. A side below the bar is skulled;
after a
short warn its troops bleed to zero, forcing consolidation to a winner.

### How it works
- **Rising zone:** a grace period, then the required share ramps up
linearly to
each level with 30s pauses between (a battle-royale "zone"). Levels
track the
  ofstats FFA territory median (3/5/10/20/30%).
- **Four speed presets** (slow / normal / fast / very fast) change only
the pace:
  normal ends ~30 min, very fast ~15.
- **Troop decay:** a linear ramp as a % of max capacity, ~50s from
caught to zero
  (10s warn + ~50s ≈ 1 min total).
- **UI:** a HUD panel (live share vs target, wave/decay countdowns,
red/orange
cues) and an on-map skull above flagged players (blinks in danger,
steady while
  draining).

### Notes for review
- Off by default; no effect on existing games. However, as discussed we
can add it to the modifier pool for public games to see how popular the
gamemode is vs normal play.
- Sim is deterministic (integer-only, in `src/core`), covered by unit +
  integration tests.
- One-line addition to `GameServer.updateGameConfig` so the setting
survives the
  host → server → client round-trip.
- Status is packed into the existing name-pass data slot (`pd4.w`: 0/1/2
=
none/danger/draining); the skull is composited into the icon atlas at
load.

### Testing
`npm test`, `npm run lint`, `npx prettier --check .`, `npm run
build-prod` all pass.

### UI:

bijxandGitHub 006f1690a5 Warship veterancy (#4433)
## Description:

Warship veterancy! This is an idea inspired by the unit veterancy
feature of games like C&C: Red Alert 2 in which unit eliminations
increases the level of individual units. I've been trying to build this
mechanic for months with different ideas, and I finally landed on this
being one of the more balanced implementation.

Warships can earn up to three levels, represented by the gold bar
insignia in the bottom right of their warship sprite.

<img width="622" height="202" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/a8c31a45-4ae9-41a9-b054-9c4a7f4ab1f1"
/>

A veterancy bar grants 20% health from the base amount, and a 20%
increase in shell damage applied _after_ the random damage roll. For
example, a level 3 warship will apply a 60% damage boost on top of the
random shell damage value (something between 200-325. If the random
value is 250, the final damage output will be `250 * 1.60 = 400`.

There are three ways to achieve a veteran level:

1. **Eliminate another warship:** any time a warship neutralizes another
warship, it immediately get's a veterancy increase.


https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/6a9e0958-5171-4ca3-94f6-9c2300a12f8b

2. **Eliminate transport boats:** Destroying 10 transport boats will
level a warship to the next veterancy bar.


https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/619ce0c0-033c-4e0b-9c64-b41eabaa791b

3. **Steal trade ships:** If the warship captures 25 trade ships, it
will earn a veterancy bar.

FloPinguinandGitHub ccd0745ad4 Prevent AI from placing ports on small lakes 🚢 (#4429)
## Description:

AI nations were placing ports on small decorative ponds scattered across
maps (Missisipi for example), wasting structure slots on strategically
useless water bodies. This fix adds a water component size check to the
port placement logic so the AI skips lakes that are too small for
meaningful port use. We already had a check for available trade
partners, but trading in small lakes is usually stupid.

**How it works:**
- `ConnectedComponents` now tracks component sizes during its existing
flood-fill (zero extra cost - counts tiles as they're visited)
- `AbstractGraph`, `WaterManager`, and the `Game` interface expose
`getWaterComponentSize(tile)` so callers can query the size of any water
body
- `NationStructureBehavior.randCoastalTileArray()` filters out non-ocean
water components below `MIN_PORT_WATER_COMPONENT_SIZE` (3000 minimap
tiles, ~12000 full-map tiles)
- Ocean tiles bypass the check entirely since they're always large
enough

6b95a23606 Fix anonymize-names desync: seed cluster-recalc offset from id() not name() (#4426)
## Description

Fixes a hard desync that hit anonymous-names lobbies (e.g. the OFM
tournament): in an anonymized FFA, roughly half the clients desynced.

### Root cause

`PlayerExecution.init()` seeded the per-player phase offset that
schedules `removeClusters()` from the player's **username**:

```ts
this.lastCalc = ticks + (simpleHash(this.player.name()) % this.ticksPerClusterCalc);
```

`removeClusters()` is not display-only — it both sets
`largestClusterBoundingBox` (read by `AiAttackBehavior` for targeting)
**and removes disconnected/surrounded territory, mutating tile
ownership**.

The anonymize-names option (#4318) sends each client a *different*
username for the same player (`anonName(target + viewer)`). So
`simpleHash(name()) % 20` differs per client → `removeClusters()` runs
on different ticks per client → `numTilesOwned()` diverges → the
every-10-tick state hash (`simpleHash(id) * (troops + numTilesOwned) +
units`) diverges → **desync**.

**Why only half the lobby:** clients granted real-name reveal (host /
admins / casters via `nameReveals` / `nameRevealPublicIds`) all see real
names, compute identical offsets, and stay in sync with each other and
the server record. Every non-granted (anonymized) client sees a unique
random name per player and diverges. Hence the clean split.

This line has been latent and harmless since 2024 (`f01949f0`) because
`name()` used to be identical on every client; #4318 was the first
feature to feed a per-client value into the core. The PR comment in
`GameServer.ts` even states the assumption — *"username … neither of
which the simulation reads"* — which turned out to be false.

### Fix

Seed the offset from `id()` instead of `name()`. Player `id()` is
assigned from a `gameID`-seeded PRNG by spawn order, so it is identical
on every client while still spreading cluster recalculation across
players (the line's original load-balancing intent). One-line sim
change; no schema/wire change.

### Verification / scope

- Audited every `name()`/`username` read in `src/core/`: this was the
**only** state-affecting one (all others are `console.log` / error
strings / display-only update fields). So this closes the whole desync
class.
- Confirmed player order, ids, config, `clanTag`/`friends` and cosmetics
are all client-identical under anonymize-names — `username` was the sole
per-client field reaching the sim.
- Swept the other recent core commits (impassable terrain, rail network,
nations AI, inline sfc32 PRNG, troop/economy changes) for independent
determinism regressions — none found.

### Follow-up

`name()` should be removed from the core `Player` surface entirely so a
per-client username can never re-enter the sim again (the remaining
reads are logging + the display payload the renderer needs). Tracked
separately.

FloPinguinandGitHub 71d70dfb0e fix: prevent client from bypassing random spawn selection 🛡️ (#4428)
## Description:

When random spawn mode is active, players are supposed to receive
randomly chosen spawns rather than choosing their own. However,
`SpawnExecution.getSpawn()` checks `center !== undefined` first, which
means if a player manually injects coordinates into the spawn intent
(bypassing the client-side UI guard), the random selection logic is
completely bypassed and the player gets their chosen coordinates.

This was fully exploitable in singleplayer (where no pre-created
`SpawnExecution` objects exist) and was a defense-in-depth gap in
multiplayer (relying on execution order of pre-created spawns to block
it via the `hasSpawned()` guard).

The fix forces `center` to `undefined` in `getSpawn()` when random
spawns are enabled, ensuring the random selection code path is always
taken regardless of what the client sends.

## Changes:
- `src/core/execution/SpawnExecution.ts`: Pass `undefined` to
`getSpawn()` when `isRandomSpawn()` is true, ignoring any
client-specified tile
- `tests/core/execution/SpawnExecution.test.ts`: Added test verifying
that a client-specified tile is ignored when random spawn is enabled

AmanorsElliotandevanpelle 170f506200 Fix transport ship's troop count to update when a hydro hits the player. (#4381)
**Add approved & assigned issue number here:**

Resolves #4308 

## Description:

When nuclear damage reduces a player's troop count, it also affects any
transports ships in the water. This works well and is useful to avoid
exploiting tranports to avoid hydro damages.

`UnitImpl.setTroops()` changes the transports troop count without
queuing a unit update. the core value changes, but the client never
receives a fresh UnitUpdate unless something else touches the ship.

- UnitImpl.ts now emits a UnitUpdate when a unit troop count actually
changes.
- NukeExecution.ts batches transport ship nuke losses, then applies one
final troop update per ship.
- Attack.test.ts now asserts the nuke tick includes a transport
UnitUpdate with the reduced troop count.

FloPinguinandGitHub 805f0968b1 Add impassable terrain 🗺️ (#4340)
## Description:

Relates to #3725

Adds a new **Impassable** terrain type that enables non-rectangular maps
and creates impassable barriers on the map. Painted with pure black
(`#000`) in the map editor's `image.png`.

**Encoding:** Impassable terrain is encoded in the binary format as
`isLand=1, magnitude=31` (previously unused). The Go map generator
detects `#000` pixels and produces this encoding. The map generator's
minimap downscaling gives impassable highest priority (Impassable >
Water > Land). Thumbnails render impassable as transparent so the map
picker background shows through.

**Rendering:** Impassable tiles render as the map background colour
(`rgb(60, 60, 60)`, matching `gl.clearColor` in `Renderer.ts`), making
them visually indistinguishable from the area outside the map quad. This
enables maps to appear non-rectangular.

**Gameplay restrictions:** Impassable terrain cannot be:
- Owned (`conquer()` throws)
- Attacked (`AttackExecution` skips impassable tiles in both `tick()`
and `addNeighbors()`)
- Nuked (targeting rejected in `nukeSpawn()`, blast radius filtered in
`tilesToDestroy()`)
- Spawned on (nations, human players, and structures all reject
impassable tiles)
- Converted to water (guarded in `WaterManager` and `setWater()`)

**Nuke trajectories:** Nuke trajectories cannot cross impassable
terrain, matching the existing map-border enforcement. This is checked
at launch time in `NukeExecution.tick()`. The client-side trajectory
preview turns red with a red X where the arc crosses impassable terrain
(reusing the existing SAM-intercept visual pipeline in
`NukeTrajectory.ts`). The nuke ghost preview is completely hidden when
hovering over impassable terrain (same as hovering outside the map).

21291b9fa3 Add trade ship captured event with toggle setting (#4344)
## What

Notify a player when one of their trade ships is captured. The alert
appears in the **less-important (top) events tier** and is gated behind
a new in-game setting (on by default).

## Why

Previously there was no notification to the player who *lost* a trade
ship — only the capturer got a transient +gold pip on the ship's
arrival. This surfaces the loss to the victim, while letting players opt
out if they find it noisy.

## Changes

- **`src/core/execution/TradeShipExecution.ts`** — On capture detection,
emit a display message (`events_display.trade_ship_captured`, type
`UNIT_DESTROYED`) to the original owner. Fires once, guarded by the
existing `wasCaptured` flag. `UNIT_DESTROYED` is not a Tier-1 type, so
it lands in the top/less-important tier.
- **`src/client/hud/layers/EventsDisplay.ts`** — Suppress the message
when the setting is off, following the existing key-based filter
pattern.
- **`src/core/game/UserSettings.ts`** — New `tradeShipCapturedEvents()`
getter (default `true`) + `toggleTradeShipCapturedEvents()`.
- **`src/client/hud/layers/SettingsModal.ts`** — New toggle in the
in-game settings modal.
- **`resources/lang/en.json`** — New
`events_display.trade_ship_captured` and
`user_setting.trade_ship_captured_label`/`_desc` keys.
- **`tests/core/executions/TradeShipExecution.test.ts`** — Tests that
the notification is sent to the original owner with the right args and
only once across ticks.

## Notes

- The setting is gated client-side (in `EventsDisplay`), keeping
`src/core` free of client-local localStorage settings — consistent with
how display events are already filtered there.
- Reused `MessageType.UNIT_DESTROYED` (red/"loss" styling) rather than
adding a new message type, to keep the change minimal. Happy to add a
dedicated type/color if preferred.

## Testing

- `npx vitest tests/core/executions/TradeShipExecution.test.ts --run` —
7 passed
- lint clean, no type errors

FloPinguinandGitHub 8a8079b979 Fix parallel bot boat attacks of nations 🐛 (#4297)
## Description:

When a nation attacked multiple bots via boat attacks in parallel, each
boat attack computed its troop allocation independently using
`player.troops() / 5` without subtracting `botAttackTroopsSent`. The
cumulative troop commitment could exceed the nation's actual troop
count, and when the queued `AttackExecution`s ran `init()`, they drained
the nation to zero.

Planetary Realignment found this bug by accident, here Russia has only
39 troops:

<img width="1189" height="654" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/07b85e00-6734-4ddd-a16e-fe53309e0ef8"
/>

The land attack path already handled this correctly. The bug in
`sendBoatAttack` was introduced by #3786, which made nations see and
attack enemies across rivers via boats, and changed `attackBots()` from
`.neighbors()` to `.nearby()`.

So the bug was on prod for the entirety of v31.

This fix extracts the shared attack troop calculation (reserve,
bot-aware allocation, troopSendCap, isAttackTooWeak, emoji) into a new
`calculateAttackTroops` method, with a callback for the non-bot troop
default (land: `player.troops() - targetTroops`, boat: `player.troops()
/ 5`). Bot targets in both paths now go through the same reserve-aware
calculation.

Previously, nations on Hard/Impossible difficulty could be stuck unable
to fight back if their `troopSendCap` or `isAttackTooWeak` checks
blocked them from sending enough troops. **@legan320** on the main
discord noticed it. Now:

- `troopSendCap` raises the cap to at least the total incoming attack
troops, so nations can match the force being used against them
- `isAttackTooWeak` bypasses the 20% minimum check entirely when under
attack
- `troopSendCap` no longer applies when attacking Terra Nullius, so
nations can always expand into unowned land with full troops

All checks still apply normally for unprovoked attacks against other
players.

f4db4a33c8 Send nukes as motion plans and render them smoothly per frame (#4255)
## Summary

Follow-up to #4244's payload work: nukes were the last per-tick movers
flooding the worker → main update stream.

- **Core**: nuke trajectories are fully determined at launch
(precomputed parabola), so `NukeExecution` now records a `GridPathPlan`
when the nuke is built — same mechanism trade ships use — and the client
derives the position each tick. Per-tick `UnitUpdate`s for nukes in
flight are suppressed; only targetable flips and deletion
(interception/detonation) still emit. This covers atom bombs, hydrogen
bombs, and MIRV warheads (dozens of per-tick movers per MIRV
separation).
- The plan path replays a separate pathfinder rather than reusing the
stored trajectory array: the curve's cached points don't advance exactly
one index per tick, and the plan must match the movement pathfinder's
exact per-tick tile sequence.
  - `startTick` accounts for MIRV warheads' staggered `waitTicks`.
- **Render**: `UnitPass.drawMissiles` now lerps each nuke's instance
position `lastPos→pos` by wall-clock progress through the current tick,
so nukes glide along their arc at render framerate instead of jumping
once per 100ms tick. Both endpoints are real simulated positions — the
rendered nuke trails the sim by at most one tick and settles exactly on
it when ticks stop. Plan-driven units sync `lastPos` on path-stall ticks
so the lerp never replays a segment. Shells keep their existing
two-instance trail; SAM missiles are unchanged.

## Test plan

- New `tests/nukes/NukeMotionPlan.test.ts`: tick-exact alignment between
the recorded plan and core nuke position over the whole flight
(mirroring `GameView.advanceMotionPlannedUnits` math), `waitTicks`
offset, and that no per-tick unit updates are emitted in flight except
targetable flips and deletion.
- Full suite passes (1452 + 65), tsc/eslint/prettier clean.
- Verified in-game (headless Chromium, real WebGL): atom bomb arcs from
silo to target with the client position driven by the plan, missile
sprite renders intact while the smoothing rewrites the instance buffer
every frame, detonation FX land at the target.

aa4b490e68 Simplify WebGL renderer integration: remove dead extension code, untangle GameView naming (#4240)
## Summary

The WebGL renderer was adapted from an external extension and carried a
lot of machinery this integration never uses (replay playback, its own
input/event system, a GL radial menu). This PR is two mechanical cleanup
passes with **no behavior change**: delete the dead code, then untangle
the `GameView` naming collision.

**78 files, +142 / −2,197.**

### Pass 1 — remove dead extension baggage

- **Replay/copy mode**: `FrameData.tileMode` was hard-coded `"live"`;
the copy branches in `frame/Upload.ts`, `UploadOptions` (never passed),
`applyFullFrame`/`applyFullTiles`/`applyDelta` on the facade and
`GPURenderer`, `HeatManager.resetForSeek`, and the seek-upload methods
on `TerritoryPass`/`TrailPass` were all unreachable. Also deletes
`types/Replay.ts`, `types/FrameSource.ts`, `types/GameUpdates.ts`,
`types/Game.ts` (imported only by the types barrel).
- **FrameEvents**: trimmed from 14 fields to the 3 actually populated
and read (`deadUnits`, `conquestEvents`, `bonusEvents`). The other 11
fed the extension's stats system and were never written or read here.
- **GL radial menu**: `RadialMenuPass`, its 4 shaders, and ~10 API
methods on facade + renderer had zero callers — the game uses the DOM/d3
radial menu in `hud/layers/RadialMenu.ts`. The pass was constructed and
drawn every frame for nothing.
- **Facade event system**: `GameViewEventMap` defined 10 event types
(`click`, `hover`, `scroll`, …) but only `contextrestored` was ever
emitted — input actually flows through `InputHandler` → EventBus →
controllers. Replaced the listener map with a single `onContextRestored`
callback and deleted `Events.ts`. Also fixed the stale header comment
claiming the facade handles user interaction.
- **Unused API surface**: removed ~20 facade/renderer methods with zero
callers (camera passthroughs like
`panTo`/`zoomTo`/`fitMap`/`screenToWorld`, hit-testing queries, SAM
replay setters, `setSelectedUnit`, `clearFx`/`setFxTimeFn`,
`onFrame`/`afterRender`/fps tracking).

Deliberately left alone: `Camera`'s pan/zoom primitives (building blocks
for a possible future camera unification) and the `timeFn` plumbing
inside the FX passes (deeply embedded as defaults; only the dead
renderer-level wrappers were removed).

### Pass 2 — untangle the three GameViews

- `render/gl/GameView.ts` → **`MapRenderer.ts`** (class `MapRenderer`).
Every importer was already aliasing it as `WebGLGameView` to dodge the
collision with the simulation-mirror `GameView` in `client/view/`, so
this removes aliasing rather than adding churn. `render/CLAUDE.md`
updated.
- Deleted the `src/core/game/GameView.ts` back-compat shim (its own TODO
asked for this). All 51 importers now import from `src/client/view/`
directly via a new 3-line barrel `view/index.ts`.

## Test plan

- `tsc --noEmit` clean, `eslint` clean
- Full test suite passes (1,385 + 65 server tests)
- Manual verification via headless Chromium: started a singleplayer game
and confirmed the renderer works end-to-end — terrain draws, spawn-phase
overlay shows, territories fill with borders after spawning, player
names/flags render, no renderer console errors

## Description:

When human pro players have non-allied players with similar troops next
to them, they wouldn't send out a big attack.

But nations are doing exactly that.

With this PR, they no longer do. On hard and impossible.
On easy and medium they are stupid 😀

```
1. Troop send cap: the nation must retain a minimum fraction of its
   strongest non-allied neighbor's troop count (Hard: 75%, Impossible:
   90%). Attacks that would drop below this floor are scaled down or
   skipped entirely. Allied and same-team neighbors are ignored since
   they pose no threat. The cap applies to land attacks, boat attacks,
   and random boat attacks.

2. Minimum attack strength: if the capped troop count is less than 20%
   of the target's troop count, the attack is skipped as too weak to be
   worthwhile. Only applies on Hard and Impossible.

`forEachNeighborWithDiag` / `isBorder` / `isOceanShore` are now
implemented inside `GameMapImpl` using raw `ref±1` / `ref±width` index
math, skipping the per-neighbor `ref()` coordinate validation
(`Number.isInteger` etc.). `GameImpl` and `GameView` delegate.
- **New `neighbors4(ref, out)`**: zero-allocation, callback-free
neighbor query for hot loops (W, E, N, S — same order as
`forEachNeighbor`).
- **`AttackExecution`**: the per-tile closures in `tick()` /
`addNeighbors()` are replaced with reusable neighbor buffers, a cached
`GameMap` reference, and integer `smallID()` owner comparisons instead
of owner-object lookups.
- **`GameImpl`**: the per-conquer `updateBorders` closure is hoisted to
a method with a reusable buffer; `removeInactiveExecutions` compacts the
executions array in place instead of allocating a new ~4200-element
array every tick.
- **`PlayerExecution`**: `surroundedBySamePlayer` / `isSurrounded` /
`getCapturingPlayer` de-closured (`neighbors4` + integer compares;
neighbor visit order preserved, so `getCapturingPlayer`'s
Map-insertion-order tie-breaking is unchanged); flood-fill visit closure
hoisted out of the while loop.
- **`FlatBinaryHeap.dequeue`**: returns the tile directly instead of
allocating a `[tile, priority]` tuple per dequeued tile (AttackExecution
is the only caller).

### Performance (`npm run perf:game`, same machine, before → after)

| run | mean tick | ticks/sec | max tick |
|---|---|---|---|
| default (world, 400 bots, 1800 ticks) | 9.04 → **7.98 ms** | 111 →
**125** | 31.7 → 35.7 ms |
| giantworldmap, 600 ticks | 22.5 → **17.4 ms** | 44 → **58** | 52.8 →
**36.2 ms** |

The giantworldmap tail improvement (max tick −31%) is the most relevant
for the 100 ms tick budget.

### Determinism verification

Identical `Final hash` before and after on all configs:

| config | hash |
|---|---|
| `--map world --ticks 200 --bots 100` | `5455008589403520` |
| same + `--seed second-seed-check` | `5580840142777488` |
| `--map giantworldmap --ticks 600` | `37373734953428430` |
| default run | `26773450321979388` |

### Tests

- New `tests/NeighborIteration.test.ts` pins the exact neighbor
iteration orders (W,E,N,S cardinal; dx-major diagonal — conquest order
and RNG consumption depend on them) and conquer/border-tile invariants
checked mid-battle.
- New `tests/FlatBinaryHeap.test.ts` covers heap ordering, clear, and
growth.
- Full suite passes (122 files / 1386 tests + server tests); lint and
prettier clean.

FloPinguinandGitHub 775ae77e0a Fix nations not spawning when random spawn is enabled 🤖 (#4117)
## Description:

When random spawn is active, human SpawnExecutions are pre-created in
GameRunner.init() and fire on the same tick as NationExecution. Because
humans were added first, their SpawnExecution ticked first, called
endSpawnPhase() (in singleplayer), and NationExecution then saw
inSpawnPhase()=false, found the nation not alive, and deactivated it
before ever queuing a SpawnExecution.

Two changes fix this:

1. GameRunner.init(): Move nationExecutions() before spawnPlayers() so
NationExecution ticks first and queues its SpawnExecution before the
human SpawnExecution can end the spawn phase.

2. NationExecution.tick(): After the spawn-phase block, add a guard that
waits when spawnExecAdded is true but the nation hasn't actually spawned
yet. This prevents NationExecution from deactivating on the very next
tick (via !isAlive()) before its queued SpawnExecution has had a chance
to fire and give the nation territory.

I tested it in singleplaye with and without random spawn and also in
public lobbies. Nations now always spawn.

BerkandGitHub f3ba95574c fix(core): prevent bots from invading/attacking themselves (#3865) (#4014)
Resolves #4094

## Description:

In Free-For-All (FFA) mode where teams default to 0, player isOnSameTeam
checks returned false for oneself, allowing players to attack
themselves. Consequently, if a bot conquered the targeted tile between
queueing a transport ship action and its actual initialization, the
target became itself, causing the bot to execute a self-invasion.

This fix adds a reflexive check in PlayerImpl.ts's isFriendly method to
always treat oneself as friendly. It also adds a safety guard in
TransportShipExecution.ts's init method to abort ship execution if the
target has shifted to the attacker.

Josh HarrisandJosh Harris 413efed895 Add per-recipient cooldown to QuickChatExecution (#4012)
`QuickChatExecution` had no cooldown, allowing a player to spam
quick-chat intents and flood a recipient's chat UI. This could bury
incoming alliance request notifications, preventing them from being seen
or accepted.

This fix mirrors the existing emoji cooldown pattern:

- Added `quickChatCooldown()` to `Config` (default: 30 ticks / 3 seconds)
- Added `canSendQuickChat(recipient)` and `recordQuickChat(recipient)`
to `Player` / `PlayerImpl`, tracking outgoing chats per recipient
- `QuickChatExecution.tick()` now checks `canSendQuickChat` before
displaying and records before the display calls (so the cooldown is
always written even if display throws)

BerkandGitHub 38f0709e53 fix(core): destroy defense posts on tile capture instead of downgrading and transferring ownership (#1563) (#4016)
## Description: 

Capturing defense posts previously demoted their level by 1, and
transferred ownership to the invading player if their level was still
above 0. The expected strategic behavior is that defense posts should
always be destroyed (deleted) upon capture.

This fix updates PlayerExecution.ts's structure tick loop to immediately
destroy the Defense Post unit via u.delete(true, captor) instead of
transferring ownership. It also rewrites the corresponding unit tests in
PlayerExecution.test.ts to verify the complete destruction of Defense
Posts of all levels (including level 2+) when the tile owner changes.

EvanandGitHub 41ef675e98 Improve Notification Panel (#3913)
Resolves #3910

## Description:

- Split the events HUD into two components: a new
**`<actionable-events>`** that owns alliance prompts (request / renew)
and a slimmed-down **`<events-display>`** for everything else.
- Reworked `<events-display>` into two visual tiers: dim/scrolling tier
2 on top (trade results, unit losses, donations, alliance status),
prominent tier 1 anchored at the bottom (inbound nukes, naval invasion,
attack requests, alliance broken, conquered player, chat). Tier 2 caps
at the 4 newest entries; events expire after 8s.
- Added a transient **+gold pip** above the gold pill in
`<control-panel>`, animated with a small fade-in. Fires for trade ships,
trains, donations, and conquest. Trade-ship and train arrivals are
removed from the events scroll since they're surfaced here instead.
- New `MessageType.NUKE_DETONATED` and a server-side emission in
`NukeExecution.detonate` — once an inbound nuke lands or gets
intercepted, the inbound warning vanishes and a "detonated" entry takes
its place.
- `displayMessage` gained optional `unitID` and `focusPlayerID` params
so events can link to a unit or a player. Unit captures and destructions
now navigate to the unit's last tile when clicked; donations navigate to
the other player.
- ActionableEvents card width matches `<events-display>`; cards persist
until the user clicks Accept/Reject/Renew/Ignore or the server-side
request timeout expires.
- Removed the in-events category filter UI and the gold-amount banner —
`<events-display>` is now a lightweight log that hides entirely when
empty.

evanpelle 0eb8578996 Fix nations not spawning in singleplayer when player picks fast
NationExecution gated its first SpawnExecution by the same
attackRate/attackTick throttle used for AI actions, so a nation
could wait up to ~100 ticks before scheduling its spawn. In
singleplayer the human's spawn ends the spawn phase immediately,
stranding any nation that hadn't yet reached its attackTick — on
the next tick its NationExecution sees inSpawnPhase()=false and
isAlive()=false (no tiles), and deactivates itself.

First spawn now fires on tick 1, gated by a one-shot flag to
avoid queuing duplicates. The attackRate cadence is preserved for
subsequent re-spawns so nations still hop locations during the
spawn phase.

BerkandGitHub 2e17fb5184 fix: remove double x() dereference in MIRV separation point calc (#3940)
mg.x() takes a TileRef and returns a number (x coordinate). The code was
calling mg.x(mg.x(tile)), feeding the numeric result back into x() which
expects a TileRef. This produces an incorrect midpoint for MIRV warhead
separation, causing warheads to spread from a wrong position on the map.

AotumuriandGitHub f1d162825e feat: remove spawn timer on singleplayer (#3199)
Resolves #1041 

## Description:

Remove the singleplayer spawn countdown so the game starts when the
player spawns, spawn nations immediately after player spawn, and align
game timer/max-timer timing with the new start point.

Added a singleplayer regression test for spawn-immunity timing
(GameImpl.test.ts) and updated spawn-phase loop tests to use gameType:
GameType.Public where singleplayer behavior is not under test (e.g.
MIRV/AI/Spawn/WinCheck-related suites), eliminating inSpawnPhase()
timeout hangs after the new singleplayer start logic.

Mike ZauggandGitHub 23b8eaa04f perf(AttackExecution): migrate hot loops to forEachNeighbor (#3820)
Resolves [#3815
](https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/issues/3815)
   
## Description:
Migrates the five `mg.neighbors(tile)` call sites in
`src/core/execution/AttackExecution.ts` to the existing zero-allocation
`forEachNeighbor(tile, cb)` helper (`src/core/game/GameImpl.ts:1107`).
`neighbors()` allocates
a fresh `TileRef[]` of length up to 4 on every call; `forEachNeighbor`
invokes a callback with no allocation. The helper is already used in
`PlayerExecution`, `GameImpl.updateBorders`, and similar hot paths —
this PR
  finishes that rollout in the hottest attack loop.

  Affected sites in `src/core/execution/AttackExecution.ts`:

  | Original line | Context |
  | --- | --- |
  | 277 | `tick()` border check around `tileToConquer` |
  | 326 | `addNeighbors()` outer neighbor loop |
  | 335 | `addNeighbors()` nested `numOwnedByMe` count |
  | 370 | `handleDeadDefender()` border test |
  | 375 | `handleDeadDefender()` neighbor scan |

  Notes:

- `handleDeadDefender` previously narrowed `this.target` from `Player |
TerraNullius` to `Player` via the early-return check. Inside an arrow
callback that narrowing isn't preserved by TypeScript, so the function
now
captures `target: Player` once after the check. Same pattern as
`tick()`'s `targetPlayer` cache.
- For loops that previously used `break` or `.some()`, I used a small
flag variable to short-circuit the callback body. With at most 4
neighbors per tile the extra callback invocations are negligible
compared to the
  eliminated array allocation.

  Behavioral guarantees:

- Iteration order is identical (`forEachNeighbor` enumerates the same
tiles in the same order as `neighbors()`).
  - No RNG, no float math, no wire-format changes.
  - Determinism preserved.

  Verification:

- `npm test` — all 994 tests pass across 104 files. The 22
attack-related tests in `Attack.test.ts`, `AttackStats.test.ts`, and
`AiAttackBehavior.test.ts` exercise the migrated code paths end-to-end.
  - `npx tsc --noEmit` — clean for the changed file.
  - `npx prettier --check` — clean.

Briefly flagged in `#development` per the contribution guidelines before
opening.

eca5794ebb Chore(deps): Update and remove dependencies (#3819)
## Description:

Only mentioning removals/major updates/notable changes below, not all
minor upgrades.

### Removed:
- "@aws-sdk/client-s3": not used anywhere (was used in Archive.ts
previously)
- chai, "@types/chai", sinon-chai: not used anywhere, probably leftover.
Vitest uses a bundled version of Chai for its expect asserations under
the hood too.
- protobufjs, "@types/google-protobuf": not used anywhere, probably left
from evan's experiment with it? Removed from vite.config.ts too.
- "@types/jquery": not used anywhere, probably leftover
- sinon, "@types/sinon": not used anywhere just like chai, probably
leftover. And Vitest provides us with the same functionality.
- "@types/systeminformation": dependency systeminformation was removed
last year, this is an unneeded, deprecated and unmaintained remainder.
- vite-tsconfig-paths: removed, and removed the import and usage in
vite.config.ts and replaced it by adding `tsconfigPaths: true` to the
`resolve` block. Because of this message displayed on running the tests:
"The plugin "vite-tsconfig-paths" is detected. Vite now supports
tsconfig paths resolution natively via the resolve.tsconfigPaths option.
You can remove the plugin and set resolve.tsconfigPaths: true in your
Vite config instead."
- vite-plugin-static-copy: removed, we don't use it anymore (was used in
our vite.config.ts once,, probably before Vite natively supported
copying static assets via its publicDir configuration)

### Updated:
- color.js: v0.5 > v0.6, no breaking change affecting us
- cross-env: v7 > v10. It's a publicly archived repo since Nov 2025. But
before that he got it up-to-date from June 2025, porting to TS, dropping
old Node versions, dependencies etc. Seems still good to use for some
amount of time to come.
- dotenv: v16 > v17, now logs an informational message by default when
it loads an environment file. Can be disabled by using
dotenv.config({quite: true}) if needed.
- ejs: v3 > v5: security patches mostly. Vite still uses v3 btw.
- eslint: v9 > v10. Newly enabled rules by default:
'no-unassigned-vars', 'no-useless-assignment' and
'preserve-caught-error'. Mostly faster and minimum support moved to
higher node versions, which shouldn't be a problem.
- "@eslint/compat": v1 > v2. Minimum supported Node versions, which
should not be a problem.
- intl-messageformat: v10 > v11 no breaking changes that affect us
- jdom: v27 > v29. Faster. Most notably minimum support moved to higher
node v22 version, which should not be a problem. Also, see types/node,
kind of expecting v24 to be installed now.
- nanoid: from v3 to v5, no breaking changes that affect us
- "@opentelemetry/sdk-logs": now that addLogRecordProcessor is removed,
changed Logger.ts to pass an (empty) provider array directly to the
LoggerProvider constructor. Follows the changes in
https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-js/pull/5588
- "@tailwindcss/vite": supports vite v8 from 4.2.2, and a fix for it in
4.2.4
- tailwindcss: supports vite v8 from 4.2.2
-- in 4.1.15 (we were already above this version) break-words was
deprecated in favor of wrap-break-word. But break-words, which we use in
15 places, will still work as expected
(https://github.com/tailwindlabs/tailwindcss/pull/19157). Same goes for
also deprecated "order-none".
- "@types/node": from v22 to v24, assuming most now use node 24
- vite v7 > v8: 
-- is now on 8.0.10 so first bugs are out of it, while v8 itself also
fixed a big number of bugs.
-- in vite.config.ts, fixed Ts error/compilation issue by changing the
manualChunks option in build.rollupOptions.output to use the function
syntax, which is required by the updated types instead of the object
syntax.
- zod: no changes that affect us

### Prettier:
Updated only because of (new because of update?) Prettier errors for
files untouched in this PR originally:
- PathFinder.Parabola.ts
- WorkerMessages.ts
- ClanModal.handlers.test.ts
- ClanModal.rendering.test.ts‎
- CONTRIBUTING.md
- README.md

### ESLint:
Fixes needed to silence errors coming from newly enabled recommended
rules 'no-useless-assignment' and 'preserve-caught-error':

For 'no-useless-assignment' (default assignment never used because of
unreachable code or they are guaranteed to get a value, so they can be
undefinedat the start. Exception was AttackExecution, so made the
default value of 0 the default case in the switch statement):
- ClientGameRunner
- GameModeSelector
- NameBoxCalculator
- StructureDrawingUtils
- TerritoryLayer
- Diagnostics
- GameRunner
- ColorAllocator
- DefaultConfig
- AttackExecution
- AiAttackBehavior
- Worker.worker
- GamePreviewBuilder

For 'preserve-caught-error', disabled the rule here because the possible
fix `{cause: error}` was introduced in ES2022 while we're still on
target ES2020 currently:
- GameServer
- Privilege

_Error: The value assigned to 'gameMap' is not used in subsequent

FloPinguinandGitHub 58ec8b280f Nations: Fix city farming + reactive defense posts + fix nuked territory capture 🛡️ (#3814)
## Description:

Would be very good to get these fixes last minute into v31.

- **Farming nations for cities is fixed**: Here you can see city farming
in action, vari farms Finland:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J4J0ajlnSHs&t=137s - Lots of 125k gold
cities... Now nations will build defense posts instead of cities:

- **Nations now build defense posts reactively** instead of through the
normal structure build order. When a nation is under significant land
attack (incoming/own troops >= 35%), it places a defense post near the
attack front -- skipped on Easy, capped at 1 on Medium, and scaled by
the incoming troop ratio on Hard/Impossible. Posts spread along the
front. The old `defensePostValue()` placement path is removed.

- **Nations now capture nuked territory.**
`hasLandBorderWithTerraNullius()` was incorrectly filtering out tiles
with fallout, causing the `nuked` attack strategy to never dispatch a
attack. Big bug

EvanandGitHub bcdc2126c6 bugfix: SAM was only reloading when not in cooldown (#3817)
## Description:

reloadMissile() was inside the isInCooldown() block. For level-2+ SAMs,
isInCooldown() returns queue.length === level, so after firing one of
two missiles (queue.length = 1 < level = 2) the SAM is not in cooldown —
meaning expired timers were never cleaned up. Stale queue entries caused
subsequent shots to be treated as still-cooling even after the cooldown
elapsed.

SAM execution now mirrors the missile silo execution

evanpelle 02353cf77d Fix nuke cancellation on alliance to use blast radius
cancelNukesBetweenAlliedPlayers previously only cancelled a nuke if its exact target tile was owned by the new ally. This meant nukes aimed at neutral or own tiles near allied territory would survive alliance formation and still land (and break the alliance).

Now uses wouldNukeBreakAlliance — the same blast-radius logic used by maybeBreakAlliances on impact — so a nuke is cancelled if its blast would have meaningfully hit the ally's tiles or structures. Also switches from the exhaustive listNukeBreakAlliance (scans all players) to wouldNukeBreakAlliance with a single-player allySmallIds set for early-exit performance.

EvanandGitHub ccb80f4245 Fix warship diagonal chase and improve trade ship capture reliability (#3807)
## Description:

The warship pathfinder operates on a 2x downscaled mini-map, and
upscaling mini-map paths back to full coordinates produces diagonal
interpolated steps. At close range (< 20 tiles), the entire path
consists of these diagonal moves, causing the warship to approach the
trade ship at an awkward angle and never converge cleanly.

742a544a69 2661 PR 3/3 Warship Manual Override, Aggro Override, and Heal-at-Port Command (#3501)
Part of [#2661](https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/issues/2661)
(split into 3 PRs so they are not too large..)

## Description:

Part 3/3 of
[#2661](https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/issues/2661).

This PR adds the retreat control and override behavior for warships:

- Manual override: moving a warship manually cancels retreat and
suppresses auto-retreat for 5 seconds
- Aggro override: a retreating warship will aggro a nearby enemy
transport or warship before continuing retreat
- Heal-at-port command for sending a warship to a friendly port manually
- Friendly-port validation for HealAtPortExecution
- Regression tests for manual override, aggro override, and heal-at-port
behavior

FloPinguinandGitHub 7654537a00 Much better river handling for nations and tribes! 🏞️ (#3786)
## Description:

In this example, the two nations DONT see each other as neighbors, but
as ISLANDERS. Because they dont have a direct border connection, there
is water in between.

<img width="526" height="329" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/cf2c15b5-7793-4445-afd2-920d6cd50a2a"
/>

This is a big problem, because most of the logic in AiAttackBehavior
gets ignored. Only the "islander" strategy runs (late, because its a
not-important strat).

### Summary

- `PlayerImpl.neighbors()` now includes cross-water neighbors: a new
`shoreReachableNeighbors()` helper samples every 10th shore border tile
and looks up to 5 tiles in each cardinal direction across water, finding
land owners on the other side (covers rivers up to 4 tiles wide).

- `AiAttackBehavior.maybeAttack()` extends the `hasNonNukedTerraNullius`
check to also trigger on TN detected via `player.neighbors()`, so
nations notice and pursue TN that is only reachable across a river.

- `sendAttack()` uses a new `hasLandBorderWithTerraNullius()` land-only
adjacency check to decide between a land attack and a boat attack for
TN, rather than `sharesBorderWith()` which includes water tiles.

- Added `sendBoatAttackToNearbyTerraNullius()`: when no TN land is
directly adjacent, the AI scans its shore border tiles for unowned land
across water and dispatches a transport ship.

### Also works for Tribes!

Tribes can boat rivers now, really cool.

FloPinguinandGitHub 692028d033 Make nations more forgiving toward humans on Easy difficulty 🕊️ (#3791)
## Description:

- Nations on Easy no longer betray human allies
- Nations on Easy now attack humans only 25% of the time (down from 50%)
- Increased Easy reaction tick range (65-100, up from 65-80) so nations
respond more slowly
- Raised MIRV steamroll-stop thresholds on Easy (city gap multiplier 1.5
-> 2, min leader cities 15 -> 20) and slightly tuned Medium/Hard
thresholds

FloPinguinandGitHub 8099b9fad7 Massive nation improvement 🤖 (#3761)
## Description:

- Hard / Impossible nations in team games auto-stop trading with all
enemies
- If there are a LOT of nations on the map (Enzo stream with 400 nation
HvN private games) they no longer start with a city, they start with eco
(port / factory) because they cannot gain much gold from bot-killing
- Impossible nations built way too many missile silos sometimes, caused
by the SAM overwhelming logic. Fixed now.
- In public HvN games with 5M starting gold, nations placed their
structures way too fast, which slowed down their expansion. And humans
could easily cause a lot of damage with one atom bomb. Now their first
structure is a SAM (on hard / impossible) and they wait between their
earlygame structure placements.
- Nations now spread out their port placements more evenly
- Nations are now able to attack much stronger enemies in team games
(They can expect donations)
- Improve performance a bit by adding more early-returns (Dont run any
nuking logic if nukes are disabled, no alliance logic if alliances are
disabled, no boating logic if transport boats are disabled, ...)
- Fix some of the "cannot send troops" messages in the console
(DonateTroopExecution)
- Nations build their first missile silo sooner, they should also build
more SAMs
- Nations spend their gold better after reaching the save-up-target
(previously they stopped nuking)
- Optimized save-up-targets for team games
- The richest impossible nation is nuking very dense players now (lot of
structure levels on a small island)

### How does a 5M gold HvN start look like now?

Zixer1andGitHub c0febacb8e 2661 PR 2/3 Warship Port Healing, Docking Capacity, and Waiting Behavior (#3499)
Part of [#2661](https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/issues/2661)
(split into 3 PRs so they are not too large..)

## Description:

Part 2/3 of
[#2661](https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/issues/2661).

This PR adds port-based healing and docking behavior:
- Passive healing near friendly ports
- Active docked healing pool scaled by port level and shared across
docked ships
- Docking radius and capacity-by-port-level behavior
- Waiting behavior near full ports until a slot opens
- Auto-undock once fully healed

For the active healing, it works like `ActiveHeal = (PortLevel * 5) /
DockedShipsAtThatPort`
Ex:
1 ship at level 1 port -> +5 HP/tick
1 ship at level 2 port → +10 HP/tick
2 ships at level 3 port → +7.5 HP/tick each

Includes regression tests covering healing math and docking/waiting
behavior.

Ivan BatsulinandGitHub 29a1e8dfda feat: multi-warship selection with Shift+drag box (#3677)
Resolves #3666

## Description:

Adds RTS-style box selection for warships. Hold Shift and drag (desktop)
or long-press and drag (touch/mobile) to draw a selection rectangle —
all player-owned warships inside get selected at once. A subsequent
click/tap on water sends them all to that location.

- `SelectionBoxLayer` — pixel-dashed rectangle in world-space, player
territory color; shared between desktop and touch
- `UILayer` — same pulsing selection outline on each box-selected
warship; clears correctly when switching between single/multi selection
- `UnitLayer` — finds warships in screen rect, filters inactive ships
before sending; touch support included
- `InputHandler` — Shift+drag and touch long-press+drag both emit
selection box events; cursor becomes crosshair on Shift; discards active
ghost structure on Shift press; configurable via `shiftKey` keybind
- `Transport` — single atomic `move_multiple_warships` intent (no split
on socket drop)
- `Schemas` + `ExecutionManager` + `MoveMultipleWarshipsExecution` —
server fans out atomic intent into individual `MoveWarshipExecution` per
ship
- `DynamicUILayer` — `MoveIndicatorUI` chevron animation on target tile
for both single and multi move
- `UnitDisplay` — warship tooltip Shift hint via `translateText`
- `HelpModal` — new hotkey row: Shift + drag → select multiple warships
