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

## Description:
- Adds a "Host Cheats" toggle in the private lobby options section that
reveals a dedicated section with four host-only cheats: infinite gold,
infinite troops, gold multiplier, and starting gold
- Only the lobby creator receives the cheat effects in-game (checked via
`isLobbyCreator` in DefaultConfig)
- Joining players see active host cheats displayed as yellow badges in
the lobby UI
- Adds `hostCheats` optional object to `GameConfigSchema` and wires it
through the server config update whitelist
- Raises the intent size limit for `update_game_config` messages
(lobby-only, not stored in turn history) to prevent rate-limiter kicks
(I always got too-much-data-kicked after selecting "host cheats" lol)

## Description:
Adds a new `waterNukes` game config option that causes nuclear
detonations to convert land tiles into water instead of just leaving
fallout. When enabled, nuked land tiles are batched and converted to
water each tick, with full terrain metadata updates including:
- Ocean bit propagation from adjacent ocean tiles (BFS flood fill)
- Magnitude recomputation via BFS from remaining coastlines
- Shoreline bit fix-up in a 2-ring neighborhood around converted tiles
- Minimap terrain sync (majority-rule downsampling)
- Throttled water navigation graph rebuild (every 20 ticks) for ship
pathfinding
- Ship executions detect graph rebuilds and refresh their pathfinders
- TransportShips auto-retreat if their destination becomes water
- Water nuke craters use a smoothed angular noise ring with a
bounding-box scan instead of the regular per-tile random coin flip with
BFS, producing clean blob-shaped craters without scattered land pixels
that players would have to boat to individually
The `TerrainLayer` now incrementally repaints tiles that changed terrain
type, and tile update packets encode the terrain byte alongside tile
state so clients can reflect water conversions in real time.
When `waterNukes` is disabled, behavior is unchanged (fallout only).
Includes a new test suite (WaterNukes.test.ts) covering the conversion
pipeline, ocean propagation, magnitude recalculation, shoreline updates,
and minimap sync.
Also adds a new public game modifier for the special rotation.
### The only problem
A bit of lag on impact. But otherwise it works great and is fun. Maybe
needs some followup improvements if it gets merged.
I think its very cool in baikal / four islands team games. Chip away the
territory of your opponents.
Its also fun to turn The Box / Alps into a water map (its actually
possible to boat-trade then)

## Description:
### Problem
When a host toggled off certain settings (game length, PVP immunity,
starting gold, gold multiplier, disable alliances) in the host lobby
modal, joiners still saw the old values. The settings appeared "stuck"
once enabled.
### Root Cause
`putGameConfig()` sent `undefined` for disabled settings, but
`JSON.stringify` strips `undefined` properties entirely. The server's
`!== undefined` guard never fired, so the old value was never cleared.
### Fix
- **HostLobbyModal**: Send `null` instead of `undefined` when these
settings are toggled off (`null` survives JSON serialization)
- **Schemas**: Add `.nullable()` to the five affected fields
(`maxTimerValue`, `spawnImmunityDuration`, `goldMultiplier`,
`startingGold`, `disableAlliances`)
- **GameServer**: Use `?? undefined` (nullish coalescing) to convert
incoming `null` back to `undefined` when storing on the config
Other settings are unaffected. Booleans like `infiniteGold` always send
`true`/`false`, and fields like `bots`/`gameMap` always have a concrete
value..

## Description:
Adds 5 new public game modifiers to the Special game mode modifier pool:
- **Ports Disabled** - disables port construction, focus on factories
- **Nukes Disabled** - disables atom bombs, hydrogen bombs, MIRVs,
missile silos and SAM launchers
- **SAMs Disabled** - disables SAM launchers (thats funny, you cant
protect against nukes, have to space out your stuff) (mutually exclusive
with nukes disabled)
- **1M Starting Gold** - gives all players 1M starting gold (was
requested by people, new chill tier alongside existing 5M and 25M)
- **4min Peace Time** - grants 4 minutes of PVP spawn immunity
All `PublicGameModifiers` boolean fields are now optional - inactive
modifiers are omitted from game JSON instead of being serialized as
`false` (stop bloating the JSON size)
I think we have enough modifiers now :) Good variety

I hope we can get this into v30?
The nation count is configurable now, just like the bot count.
Replaced the "Disable Nations" toggle with a nations slider (0–400) in
SinglePlayer and Host Lobby modals.
<img width="710" height="121" alt="Screenshot 2026-03-03 021952"

/>
Public games are staying exactly the same, this is just for singleplayer
and private lobby fun.
Youtubers could play HvN against 400 nations, for example.
Singleplayer enjoyers no longer have to play against 1 nation in HvN,
they can freely choose.
`GameConfig.disableNations: boolean` got replaced by `nations: number
(0-400, optional)`
`undefined` = map default,
`0` = disabled,
number = custom count
Nations slider defaults to the map's nation count, shows "(MAP DEFAULT)"
label when unchanged
Compact map toggle reduces nations to 25% when at default, restores when
toggled off (just like we already do with bots)
The nation count for HvN no longer automatically matches the human count
in singleplayer and private games, only in public games.
**What if there aren't enough nations configured for the map?**
We just use the HvN logic (Generate random nations)
### Warning
**This infra PR also needs to get merged:
https://github.com/openfrontio/infra/pull/263
Otherwise players can set 0 nations and get achievements.**

## Description:
Adds two new public game modifiers for variety and improves compact map
eligibility for team games.
### New Modifiers
**Hard Nations (`isHardNations`)**
- We need this modifier for HvN, because medium nations are easier now
(will result in a much higher human winrate)
- In a discord discussion we concluded that HvN should generally be
easier (higher winrate than 50%, so players are less frustated)
- Thats why only 20% of HvN games have the hard nations modifier (for
now)
- For PvPvE enjoyers, the modifier is also active in FFA games => (Only
2.5% chance, and 1 ticket in `SPECIAL_MODIFIER_POOL`)
**25M Starting Gold (`startingGoldHigh`)**
- Some people in the main discord wanted this modifier, and it will
result in crazy games
- Rare special-only modifier (1 ticket in pool); mutually exclusive with
5M starting gold via `MUTUALLY_EXCLUSIVE_MODIFIERS`
- Disables nations (they lack PVP immunity, so 25M gold doesn't work
well with them)
- Excluded from HumansVsNations games (since it disables nations)
- Spawn immunity set to **2 minutes 30 seconds** (vs 30s for 5M gold),
so people can spend the gold and prepare
### Other Changes
- **Improved `supportsCompactMapForTeams`**: Replaced the hard `smallest
>= 50` land-tile cutoff with a per-team-config calculation that
simulates worst-case compact player count and checks every team gets at
least 2 players.
- **HvN spawn immunity**: Always 5 seconds in both regular and special
lobbies (to get rid of a confusing PVP immunity HeadsUpMessage in 5M
starting gold games)
- **Regular public lobby random spawn modifier probabilty**: Reduced
from 10% to 5% (Because of the new modifier, so there aren't too many
modifiers in non-special-lobbies, should only occur sometimes there)
- Rebalanced `SPECIAL_MODIFIER_POOL` a bit

## Description:
The master set lobby start times on creation, which caused an issue if
the previous lobby filled up and started before its timer ran out, the
next lobby would have its timer set too far back. For example, if lobby
time is 60 seconds, and the first lobby fills up after 10s, the
subsequent lobby would have its timer set for 110 seconds (60+50).
Instead we have the master set the lobby start time only when it is next
up in rotation. So all lobbies behind it don't have a start time,
because we don't actually know what it should be.

#2716 introduced nuke cancellation logic on alliance acceptance via
`AllianceRequestReplyExecution`. The radial menu action, though, calls
`AllianceRequestExecution` instead, which accepts the alliance if a
request has already been made by the other player.
This PR moves the nuke cancellation logic to `GameImpl`, hooking into
the `acceptAllianceRequest` method, therefore accounting for every
alliance acceptance, regardless of the specific action that brought to
that.

## Description:
Currently only the master process sends public lobby updates to clients.
This is not scalable since it could overload the master process.
In this PR, the master uses IPC to send public lobby info to all
workers. Then clients connect to a random worker to get public lobby
updates via websocket. This way clients never connect directly to the
master websocket.
The flow looks like this:
Every 100ms:
1. Master schedules a public game on a random worker if new games are
needed
2. Master broadcasts public lobby info to all workers (all public games
& num clients connected to each game)
3. Each worker responds to that update with the number of clients
connected to its own public games
4. Master then updates its public lobby state so it knows how many
clients are connected to each public game

### Short path for multi-source HPA*
Math was not mathing, increased the bounds to 260x260, it is a bit
slower but should work better. The short path was breaking when player
owned a lot of shores. This is because the bounding box of tiles with
less than 120 distance + 10 padding could be as big as 260x260 and the
optimized array was set to 140x140. I made mistake of calculating it as
`2 * (60 + 10)` instead of `2 * (120 + 10)`.
### LoS path refinement
Previously, we ran 2 passes of LoS smoothing on the path. However, since
we are effectively tracing the same path, the line of sight is
essentially the same. This PR makes second line of sight stop on water
tiles with magnitude `n + 1` compared to first path. Practically, this

- Player clicks TARGET tile, it can be deep inland
- Client sends BoatAttackIntent with TARGET
- Worker accepts BoatAttackIntent, computes DESTINATION as closest shore to TARGET
- Worker computes START as the best tile to DESTINATION
- Worker sends boat from START to DESTINATION

- Add starting gold option (0 to 1_000_000_000 allowed, also applies to
nations)
- Add gold multiplier option (0.1 to 1000 allowed, also applies to
nations and bots)
- Add third public game modifier (3% chance of starting with 5M gold)
- Why 5M? It's enough gold to massively change the game start but not
enough to insta-hydro someone (launcher + hydro is 6M)

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

Resolves#2823
## Description:
When playing in single-player mode, if an NPC reaches 80% land control
before the player, the game enters a broken state where:
- The game clock stops
- Win checking stops permanently
- Even if the player later conquers 100% of land, victory is never
awarded
- The game becomes "stuck" in a zombie state.
This PR addresses this allowing Nations to be set as winners in single
mode, and in this case showing a "Nation {nation} has won" modal to the
user. This WinModal is the same as the "{player} has won", with the only
change being the title.
Nation wins in FFA, from the human player perspective:

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

## Description:
Previously, the zod schemas for troop and gold donation allowed for
negative values which could open the game up to vulnerabilities through
undefined behavior in the future. We mitigate these vulnerabilities but
adding `.nonnegative` to the `DonateGoldIntentSchema` and
`DonateTroopIntentShcema` respectively. Today, code exists to prevent
this deeper in the codebase, but we should also prevent this earlier if
possible during intent validation.

## Description:
Added a public game modifier system. It causes that
5% of public games are played on the compact version of the map
10% of public games have "Random Spawn" activated
Percentages can easily get changed via `DefaultConfig`.
We can also easily add more modifiers.
Modifiers can stack, so in rare cases you will play on a compact map
with random spawn 😄
More variety!
### "Compact Map" modifier implementation
- With the "Compact Map" modifier the lobby max player count gets
reduced to 25% and only 25% of the regular bots and only 25% of the
regular nations will spawn (because the map has only 25% of its regular
size)
- In private lobbies and singleplayer the nation reduction happens too
(When "Compact Map" is enabled).
### Restrictions
- Duos/Trios/Quads team modes do not get Random Spawn (defeats the
purpose)
- Maps with smallest player count < 50 do not get Compact Map in team
games (not enough players after the reduction to 25%). I have calculated
all the possible max player counts.
### How it looks like
Random Spawn modifier:
<img width="528" height="183" alt="Screenshot 2026-01-06 194959"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/2f729da9-80c3-4548-8205-71129da2a76a"
/>
Very rare case: Two modifiers at the same time and only 10 max players
have been chosen from `[GameMapType.FaroeIslands]: [20, 15, 10]`.
Because of the 75% reduction in player count only 3 players are allowed
(3 is the minimum). I think its funny that you can play a 1v1v1 in rare
occasions 😄

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/834326eb-df03-41b7-b1db-1efa3f1013b5"
/>
### Funny side-effect
Team games with random spawn. That will be interesting. No more "Who is
better in donating troops to the frontline". Instead you have to heavily
coordinate with your teammates.

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

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

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

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

## Description:
This PR centralizes all username validation using UsernameSchema with a
set maximum, minimum, and a regex pattern,
It also removes sanitization, as all places where the username would be
sanitized on the server have been gatekept, so no unvalidated usernames
can get onto the server past the ClientMessageSchema safeParse in
GameServer's on message func.
Here is how the errors look if that happens, Note that if the client is
funtioning correctly and the user doesn't manually send a WS message,
they should never see this. The screenshots are from a debug build where
client uname validation was disabled.

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/c78b4114-7e4b-4d39-a135-4cab3ad52c0b"
/>
Profanity sanitization was not changed.
Additionally, the censor tests were updated to reflect the new
expectations.
Jose was added to the jest config as an allowed transform pattern, as it
didn't make sense to me to mock a zod schema.
The UsernameSchema pattern was set to `^[a-zA-Z0-9_ \[\]üÜ]+$`, I
personally think either we should allow all latin characters (regex has
a pattern for this, `\p{L}` or `\p{sc=Latin}`) and then we'd use some
kind of library to normalize all latin characters into regular ascii for
name filtering, or we should only keep ascii letters.

(I just realized sanitization isn't a word, it's supposed to be
sanitation, sorry.)
When user tries to join either a public or private multiplayer game, the
turnstile callback is triggered, and the turnstile token is passed to
the server when joining a game.

Previously, the connection and reconnection logic were identical in
Worker.ts, so clients would need to be re-authorized for cosmetics etc
even when reconnecting. Now, on reconnect, Worker.ts only does
authentication - verifying the jwt is valid.
This will allow clients to require a valid turnstile token when first
connecting, and not when reconnecting after a broken ws connection.

Fixes: #676
This PR adds Players Vs Nations as a game mode in the menu.
For this change I have added two mutually exclusive option for this
mode:
1. Match number of nations to number of players who have joined
2. Set the number of nations to a fixed value
