## Description:
- The lobby WebSocket broadcast (`/lobbies`) was re-sending the full
`PublicGames` snapshot — including each lobby's `gameConfig` — to every
connected client every 500ms. Almost nothing in that payload changes
tick-to-tick; only `numClients` moves.
- `WorkerLobbyService` now tracks the sorted set of `gameID`s it last
sent as a full snapshot. On each incoming broadcast it sends a `full`
only when that set changes; otherwise it sends a `counts` delta carrying
just `{gameID → numClients}`.
- This relies on the master-side coupling at
[MasterLobbyService.ts:140-159](src/server/MasterLobbyService.ts#L140-L159):
when master finds a lobby without `startsAt`, it both sets `startsAt`
AND schedules a fresh lobby on the same tick, so the gameID change
brings the `startsAt` (and `gameConfig`) along with it.
- New WS connections are primed with the worker's cached last `full` so
late joiners don't have to wait for the next structural change.
- `LobbySocket` parses the new discriminated union (`PublicLobbyMessage
= full | counts`), keeps the last full snapshot in memory, and merges
counts into it before invoking the existing callback. `GameModeSelector`
is unchanged.
- Master → worker IPC is unchanged — still sends the full snapshot every
500ms. The optimization only applies to the worker → WS-client boundary,
which is the fan-out point.

## Description:
- The renderer no longer knows what "dark mode" is.
`RenderSettings.dayNight.mode` (`"light" | "dark"`) is gone — passes
read neutral values (`lighting.ambient: number`, `lighting.enabled:
boolean`).
- `render-settings.json` holds the light-mode baseline. Dark mode is
just another override layer, applied the same way as graphics settings
(`darkNames`, `classicIcons`, etc.).
- New `src/client/render/gl/RenderOverrides.ts` exposes two in-place
mutators with matching shapes:
- `applyGraphicsOverrides(settings, overrides)` — replaces the old
`generateRenderSettings`
- `applyDarkModeOverride(settings, isDark)`
- `ClientGameRunner` regenerates the live settings each time the user
setting changes via `deepAssign(live, createRenderSettings())` + the
override chain. No per-slice copy list, no intermediate object — adding
a new override that touches a new section just works.
- Renamed `dayNight` → `lighting`; collapsed `nightAmbient`/`dayAmbient`
into single `ambient`; renamed `enableLightCompositing` → `enabled`.
- Bumped dark-mode ambient from 0.15 → 0.35 so terrain stays readable.

## Description:
Themes are purely for the client's rendering, and the server doesn't
need context on them. This PR moves `Theme.ts` from
`src/core/configuration` to `src/client/theme` and moves affiliation
colors to `render-settings.json`.
This is to support the ability to add additional themes more quickly,
such as colorblind-friendly themes. No visible changes occur from this
refactor.

The renderer kept a parallel CONSTRUCTION_DURATIONS table in
src/client/render/GameConstants.ts that had drifted from Config: port
showed as 20 ticks but the simulation builds it in 50, so the bar hit
100% and idled for 30 ticks. SAM/silo cooldown constants were also
stale (120/75 vs Config's 90/90), making the missile-readiness bar
slightly wrong too.
Delete GameConstants.ts entirely. Thread the Config instance through
WebGLGameView → GPURenderer → BarPass / FxPass / FxSpritePass /
WorldTextPass; passes call config.unitInfo(...).constructionDuration,
config.SAMCooldown(), config.deletionMarkDuration(), config.msPerTick()
directly. Add Config.msPerTick() since no method existed for it.
Move the visual-only NUKE_EXPLOSION_RADII (not a game-logic value)
into FxSpritePass where it's used.
The structureSprites toggle was only read by the toggle UIs themselves —
no rendering code ever consulted it. Drops the getter/setter from
UserSettings, both toggle rows (SettingsModal + UserSettingModal), and
the en.json keys. Other-language entries are left for Crowdin to reap.
Adds a "Classic icons" toggle in the structure-icons section of the
Graphics Settings modal. Off (default) keeps today's renderer look;
on switches to a classic style — lighter player-colored shape behind
a dark icon glyph, with 0.75 alpha for a subtle translucent feel.
Exposes the underlying tuning as new render-settings knobs
(`structure.fillDarken`, `borderDarken`, `iconAlpha`, `iconR/G/B`) and
threads them through the structure shader as uniforms, replacing the
previously hardcoded `darken(_, 0.65)` / `darken(_, 0.35)` calls and
the hardcoded white `vec3(1.0)` icon color. The `classicIcons` boolean
in the override schema is the single user-facing knob; the generator
derives the five underlying field values from it. Extends the
ClientGameRunner live-apply path to copy the `structure` slice too,
and adds tests covering the schema and preset derivation.
Adds a single "Name color" toggle (Colored / Black) to the Graphics
Settings modal, backed by a `darkNames` boolean in the override schema
that derives the five underlying name-rendering fields
(fill/outline player-color flags + static outline RGB). Forcing the
outline RGB to 0 in dark mode is what makes the shader's defaultFill
ramp actually render black — flipping the boolean uniforms alone
wasn't enough because the fill is derived from uOutlineColor when
fillUsePlayerColor is false.
Flips the render-settings.json defaults so black names are the
renderer baseline; the modal's no-override state follows the JSON
source of truth. Adds tests covering schema parse behavior and the
generateRenderSettings derivation for each override field.
Chip used a world-space scale and y-offset, so it shrank as the camera
zoomed out and slid under the cursor. Now both the scale and the
downward offset are divided by zoom each frame, mirroring the existing
attack-troop-label pattern. Tunable via ghostCost in render-settings.
## Description:
- Add a user-facing **Graphics Settings** modal accessible from the
in-game Settings menu, with live preview as sliders change.
- First two knobs: **Name Scale** and **Minimum Name Size** (the
name-cull threshold).
- Overrides stored as a single JSON blob in `localStorage` under
`settings.graphics`, validated by a Zod schema
(`GraphicsOverridesSchema`). Future graphics knobs just extend the
schema + slider list.
## How it fits together
- `generateRenderSettings(overrides)` (`RenderSettings.ts`) — pure
function: clones `render-settings.json` defaults, layers overrides on
top, returns a fresh `RenderSettings`.
- `UserSettings.graphicsOverrides()` / `setGraphicsOverrides()` —
read/write the blob; falls back to `{}` on a missing/corrupt entry.
- `ClientGameRunner` listens for
`USER_SETTINGS_CHANGED_EVENT:settings.graphics`, regenerates, and
`Object.assign`s each category into the live `view.getSettings()` slice
so passes pick up the new values on the next frame (no renderer
reconstruction).
- Modal reads defaults straight from `render-settings.json` so there's
no duplication.

The lil-gui render-settings panel (createDebugGui) has been an orphaned
export since the WebGL renderer landed — no caller, no hotkey, no menu
entry. Wire it to a button in SettingsModal that toggles the panel on
and off, and group it with the existing Performance Overlay toggle
under a new "Development Only" section above the Exit Game block.
Wire targetingAlly through GhostPreviewData.rangeWarning so RangeCirclePass
can color the blast-radius circle red instead of white when the ghosted nuke
would trigger a traitor penalty. Restores behavior lost in the canvas→WebGL
migration.
Filter extractAttackRings to the local player's smallID so FxAttackRingPass
only draws rings on the player's own transports. Drop the unused
extractAttackRingsFromIds variant and the dead frame/index.ts barrel
re-exports.
Replace the hard zoom cutoff in RailroadPass with a linear alpha fade
controlled by a new `railFadeRange` setting. Rails (and bridge pixels)
ramp from invisible at `railMinZoom - railFadeRange` to fully opaque at
`railMinZoom`, instead of popping in. Adds a uRailFade shader uniform
and a debug slider.
## Description:
Add image-based territory skins as a new cosmetic type, rendered
alongside the existing 1-bit patterns. Skins render a single PNG
centered on each player's spawn tile — opaque pixels show the skin
(multiplied by team color in team games, raw colors in FFA), transparent
pixels and tiles outside the image bounds fall through to the regular
player palette color.
**Cosmetic plumbing**
- `SkinSchema` in `CosmeticSchemas.ts`, optional `skins` map on
`CosmeticsSchema`
- `PlayerSkin`, `PlayerCosmetics.skin`, `PlayerCosmeticRefs.skinName` in
`Schemas.ts`
- Server-side resolution: `PrivilegeCheckerImpl.isSkinAllowed` (gated by
`skin:*` / `skin:<name>` flares)
- Client persistence: stored under `PATTERN_KEY` (`pattern:` and `skin:`
share one slot — they're mutually exclusive)
- `getPlayerCosmeticsRefs` only emits a `skinName` when cosmetics are
loaded, the skin exists in the catalog, and the user has the right flare
— otherwise drops the ref and clears storage
**Renderer**
- `SkinAtlasArray` — fixed `TEXTURE_2D_ARRAY`, 1024×1024 per layer,
exact layer count allocated once at game start from the locked-in player
set. No resize, no callbacks, no retained `HTMLImageElement`. Zero GPU
cost when no players have skins (1×1 placeholder).
- `skinLayerTex` (R8UI 4096×1) — per-player `layer + 1` (`0` = no skin)
- `skinAnchorTex` (RG16UI 4096×1) — per-player spawn tile, so the PNG
center anchors at each player's spawn (re-uploads when the player
re-picks during spawn phase)
- `WebGLFrameBuilder.syncPlayers` collects unique skin URLs on first
sync and calls `view.initSkinAtlas(urls)` once; `clearCaches()` resets
so seek/replay re-initializes
- `territory.frag.glsl`: skin branch is mutually exclusive with
patterns; bounds-checks UVs against `[0, 1]` so the image is a single
stamp, not tiled; alpha-blends against the player palette color so
transparent pixels and out-of-bounds tiles render as the regular player
color
**Hover highlight (global UX change, not skin-scoped)**
- Existing hover highlight changed from "brighten toward white" to
"saturation boost." Applies to all players regardless of
skin/pattern/flat-color — looks better across the board.
**UI**
- `CosmeticButton` renders skins as a single `<img>` (object-contain)
- `TerritoryPatternsModal` merges patterns + skins into one grid; single
"default" tile clears both
- Selecting a pattern clears the skin and vice versa (mutually
exclusive)
- `Store` pattern tab includes skin entries (purchasable, not-yet-owned)
- `PatternInput` lobby button previews the active skin when one is set
**Memory**
- 0 skin players → ~4 bytes (placeholder) + ~40 KB fixed per-player
tables
- 1 skin player → ~5.6 MB GPU
- 5 skin players → ~28 MB GPU
- 10 skin players → ~56 MB GPU
**Tests**
- `tests/Privilege.test.ts`: 13 new cases covering `isSkinAllowed`
(wildcard, exact-match, missing flare, missing skin, forged refs) and
`isAllowed` integration (allowed/forbidden paths, short-circuit when
invalid skin is paired with valid other cosmetics)

## Description:
Silence noisy console warnings of `LangSelector not found in DOM` on
page hydration.
Previously, `translateText()` queried the DOM very early in the client
rendering/hydration phase before Lit Element had mounted the
`<lang-selector>` element. This resulted in hundreds of noisy warnings
in the browser developer console on page load.
This fix resolves the issue gracefully in Utils.ts: it queries
`getCachedLangSelector()` and immediately returns the key if not found
without polluting the console log with warnings. Once the element is
fully mounted, normal translation and cache updates resume.

## Description:
The unit fragment shader (unit.frag.glsl) checked vFlags > 1.5 to
colorize warships in their attacking/angry solid red territory band
(FLAG_ANGRY = 2.0). However, trade-friendly ships use
FLAG_TRADE_FRIENDLY = 3.0 which also matched this condition, causing
friendly/trade-allied ships to incorrectly render as hostile/angry
warships in normal camera view.
This fix refactors unit.frag.glsl to use precise float range queries via
abs() to verify FLAG_ANGRY and FLAG_FLICKER flags specifically,
preventing the trade-friendly flag from triggering the angry-red
colorization.

Names now follow the player's currently-selected spawn tile each tick
instead of going through placeName, which read a cluster bounding box
that only refreshed every cluster-calc cycle and was further throttled
to every other tick. Adds placeSpawnName and switches the spawn-phase
branch in GameRunner to use it.
## Description:
Replaces the DOM-based `AttackingTroopsOverlay` with
`AttackingTroopsController`, rendering attack troop counts through
`WorldTextPass` instead of a separate fixed-position DOM container.
## Summary
- New `AttackingTroopsController` polls `attackClusteredPositions()`
every 200ms and pushes labels to the WebGL view each frame, lerping
cluster positions over 250ms for smooth front-line movement (replaces
the old CSS `transform 0.25s` transition).
- `WorldTextPass` gains `setAttackTroopLabels()` and renders them at a
fixed on-screen size (zoom-independent) using `screenScale / zoom`.
- World text now draws on top of `NamePass` so attack callouts aren't
hidden behind centered player names.
- Fragment shader adds a soft quadratic dark halo around every
world-text label; extent uses the remaining SDF range after the hard
outline so it fades smoothly to zero (no rectangular clipping).
- Deletes `AttackingTroopsOverlay.ts`; existing unit tests repointed to
the controller's exported `alignClusterOrder`.

Follow-up to #3901 (cc @evanpelle).
## Description:
In the review on #3901, evanpelle pointed out that the disposer returned
by `installSafariPinchZoomBlocker` is never called at the call site in
`Main.ts`, and asked whether there's any reason to return it. There
isn't — the listeners live for the document's lifetime and the browser
releases them on teardown — so this PR drops the disposer.
### Changes
- `installSafariPinchZoomBlocker` now returns `void`. Removed the
`return () => { ... }` block and the `@returns` JSDoc line. Added a
sentence explaining why no disposer is needed.
- Tests: dropped the disposer-removal test, switched the behavior tests
to use fresh detached `<div>` elements (no document state leak across
tests), and verified the default-target = `document` case with
`vi.spyOn(document, 'addEventListener').mockImplementation(() => {})` so
no real listener actually attaches to the shared jsdom document.
Net diff: -23 lines (30 insertions, 53 deletions).
### What I tested
- `npm test` — 1245 + 65 tests pass, including the 4 surviving tests for
this helper
- `npm run build-prod` — succeeds (tsc + vite)
- `npx eslint` — clean
- `npx prettier --check` on the touched files — clean

Moves the AlternateViewEvent / ToggleCoordinateGridEvent subscriptions out of
ClientGameRunner into a dedicated controller in src/client/controllers/. Also
wires ToggleCoordinateGridEvent (M keybind) — previously emitted with no

hide names only under alt-view; M keeps names visible.
## Description:
# Ghost structure cost label
Renders the gold cost of the currently-selected build under the ghost
structure cursor, with color-coded affordability/placement state. Honors
the
existing `cursorCostLabel` user setting (legacy name `ghostPricePill`,
already
shipping ON by default).
## Behavior
| State | Color |
|---|---|
| Can afford + valid placement | white |
| Can afford + can't place here (port on land, overlap, …) | gray |
| Can't afford | red |
The number is formatted via `renderNumber` (project-wide convention —
`1.5K`,
`1.23M`, etc.) and rendered as MSDF text at a fixed world-space scale,
centered
under the ghost icon.
## Implementation
The cost was already plumbed end-to-end on
[`GhostPreviewData.cost`](src/client/render/types/Renderer.ts) but never
visualized. This PR:
- Extends [`GhostPreviewData`](src/client/render/types/Renderer.ts) with
`showCost` (from setting) and `canAfford` (gold
vs. cost check, computed in
[BuildPreviewController](src/client/controllers/BuildPreviewController.ts)).
- Adds a `setGhostCostLabel(...)` channel to the MSDF text pass — one
persistent,
non-animated text instance alongside the existing ephemeral popups. No
new
pass, no new shader.
- Wires
[`Renderer.updateGhostPreview`](src/client/render/gl/Renderer.ts) to
push the label whenever a ghost is active.
- Renames `ConquestPopupPass` →
[`WorldTextPass`](src/client/render/gl/passes/WorldTextPass.ts) (and its
shader dir
`conquest-popup/` → `world-text/`) since it now handles conquest popups,
bonus popups, and the ghost cost label. Done with `git mv` so history is
preserved.

Wires the existing ToggleStructureEvent (emitted on UnitDisplay button
mouseenter/leave) to view.setHighlightStructureTypes via a small
StructureHighlightController. StructurePass + StructureLevelPass already
implement the highlight visual — this just connects the two ends.
# Dynamic flag atlas (runtime TEXTURE_2D_ARRAY)
Replaces the build-time `flag-atlas.png` with a runtime
`TEXTURE_2D_ARRAY`
populated on demand from each player's server-resolved flag URL. Layers
are
deduped by URL (every "Mercia" bot shares one slot), so the per-game
working
set is bounded by unique flags, not player count.
## Why
The store will eventually ship hundreds of custom flags fetched from the
CDN,
which can't be baked into a static atlas. Moving to a runtime array also
lets
the catalog grow without bloating the client bundle.
## Side effect (bonus)
Human players' country flags (`country:US`, etc.) now display next to
their
names in-game. The old atlas only contained nation names, so non-nation
flags
were silently dropped.
## Notes
- Cell size is fixed at 128×85; loaded images are aspect-fit and
centered.
- Layer cap is 512 (clamped to `MAX_ARRAY_TEXTURE_LAYERS`). Past the
cap,
further flag requests render no icon.
- Mipmaps are regenerated after each layer upload.
- Recommend store pipeline caps custom flag uploads at SVG or PNG ≤
256×170,
≤ 50 KB (decode-time RAM and bandwidth, not VRAM).

## Description:
Reworks the visual look of nuked tiles to read uniformly green (no more
brown/black bleed-through), and moves the ember "particle" effect out of
the border passes — where it lived as a storage-sharing hack — into the
fallout system where it belongs.
## What changed visually
- **Fresh fallout**: bright uniform bloom with a hint of flickering
green particles dampened on fresh tiles, ramping up as heat decays
(`particleFreshScale` controls the fresh-tile dampening).
- **Stale fallout**: dark-green ground (was near-black charcoal), with
full-strength flickering particles in dark-green ↔ light-green.
- **Particles**: per-tile flicker is now de-synced (each tile pulses at
its own rate, 0.4×–1.6× base speed) so the eye can't lock onto a global
rhythm.
- **No more brown/black pixels** in fallout zones. Two root causes were
fixed:
- The territory pass now renders stale-nuke ground for **all** fallout
tiles, not just unowned ones — so an owned player's color can't show
through where the bloom is dim/transparent.
- The ember stamp (which fully replaced tile color with orange) is gone;
particle render is now additive and color-tuned green.
## Architecture cleanup
The ember effect was conceptually fallout-domain, but lived in
`BorderComputePass` (writing intensity into `borderTex.g`) and
`BorderStampPass` (stamping orange dots), just because the border pass
already had an RGBA8 texture with a free G channel. Two consumers read
from it (`BorderStampPass`, `FalloutLightPass`), and the per-tile
flicker math used no border data at all.
This PR relocates the math inline into the two passes that actually need
it (`FalloutBloomPass.extract.frag.glsl` and
`FalloutLightPass.fallout-light.frag.glsl`), drops the ember code from
both border passes, and renames `mapOverlay.ember*` →
`falloutBloom.particle*` so the settings live with their pass.
Side benefits:
- **Animation correctness**: the old setup only updated ember intensity
when `BorderComputePass`'s dirty flag flipped (highlight change,
relations update, etc.), so the supposed flicker was actually a frozen
snapshot between border events. The new inline path runs every frame as
intended.
- **Slightly cheaper per-frame compute**: removed a per-dirty-event
full-map writeback to `borderTex.g`; added a few cheap ALU ops (1 sin +
2 hashes) per fallout tile in shaders that were already running. Same
texture memory.
## Other small changes
- Renamed `mapOverlay.charcoal*` → `mapOverlay.staleNuke*` (charcoal was
a misnomer now that the ground is green).
- Added `staleNukeR/G/B` for the ground color (was hardcoded grey).
- `intensityHot` bumped 0.6 → 1.8 for a brighter fresh-nuke glow.
- Raised `railroad.railMinZoom` 2 → 4 and `railDetailZoom` 4 → 6 so
rails pop in later (separate small commit).

The structure dirty flag missed ownership changes, so captured buildings
kept rendering in the previous owner's color until another structure
event (level/active/construction) forced a re-upload.
## Description:
Show factory and defence post radius for ghost structure when placing
structures from build bar (unitdisplay).
Show when city/port is placed directly over existing railroad, by
highlighting the railroad green. The railroad is not highlighted when
instead a city/port nearby the ghost structure will be upgraded instead
of placing it on the railroad. This works with the existing code in
buildableUnits in PlayerImpl: it would already return an empty array []
for overlappingRailroads and for ghostRailPaths when canUpgrade is
false. So the old checks for uiState for Canvas2D in
BuildPreviewController weren't even needed per se, they followed the
same logic as buildableUnits in PlayerImpl already did.
Both changes emulate how it worked before the move to WebGL.
- OverlappingRailroads now returns TileRefs instead of a railroad ID,
and it does so with less allocations than the previous code. It's a
determistic outcome, sorted and deduplicated. In doubt about this a bit,
because it's better also in case we ever do desync checks using this
data, but for the rendering it isn't needed per se and could be more
performant without allocations.
- Also: Cleanup obsolete Canvas2D rail highlighting state (UIState) that
was superseded by GhostPreviewData.

## Description:
In the WebGL implementation, room was reserved for emoji icon between
the status icons and the name.. This is a regression from the HTML
NameLayer and it looks weird having that space sit there unused the
majority of the time when no emoji is shown.
Show status icons closer above names again.
And when emoji icon is shown shortly, display it in place of the other
icons (with the HTML NameLayer it would be drawn on top of the other
icons but that could look messy and it's only for a short time anyway).
Not addressed in this PR: icon size is different from before WebGL
implementation, they seem smaller.

When WebGL context is lost, restore context and all elements.
In GameView, handle potentially transient undefined states during
context loss gracefully.
Test with chrome://gpucrash from another tab, then return to the game
tab to see it being restored
(This fake gpucrash only works once sometimes. Because the second time
the browser might reject the tab it thinks caused the gpu crash, access
to hardware acceleration. And after even more tries even disables it
browser-wide. A browser restart resets it in that case.)

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.

relates to #893
## Description:
Territory updates were uploaded in one shot per game tick, producing a
10 Hz tile update which looked choppy. This change drips each tick's
tile changes across the ~6 render frames between ticks so the fill flows
continuously instead of stepping.
Inside TerritoryPass, each changed tile is hashed by ref into one of N
buckets (configurable via tileDrip.bucketCount, set to 9 — gives ~50 ms
of jitter headroom over the tick period without making attacks feel
laggy). One bucket drains per render frame. The stable per-ref hash
keeps repeated updates to the same tile in arrival order, so the latest
owner always wins.
While in there, moved trail state ownership out of TerritoryPass and
into TrailPass where it belongs — the territory shader doesn't sample
trailTex, so the colocation was just code-reuse drift.

Plumb spawnTile through PlayerUpdate / PlayerState / applyStateUpdate
so the WebGL spawn overlay can read it directly. The glow was reading
nameData.x/y (territory centroid for label placement) which only
recomputes every 2 ticks and only when largestClusterBoundingBox has
been updated by PlayerExecution — both lag the player's actual spawn
click. Using spawnTile updates the same tick setSpawnTile() fires.
Also adds spawnTile to diffPlayerUpdate / applyStateUpdate so changes
after the initial full snapshot actually propagate (the recent
diff-only PlayerUpdate path silently dropped any field not enumerated
in those helpers).
