## Description:
- Move the Delete button to where the Boat button is otherwise. The Boat
and Delete button already mutually exclude eachother anyway; boat button
is only visible on other's tiles, delete button is only visible on your
own tiles. Evan agreed to this new position:

- Increase the cooldown between deletions from 5 to 15 seconds. PR #2216
introduced a destruction time (deletionMarkDuration) making it take 15s
to delete a building. With the cooldown of 15s between clicking the
Delete button (deleteUnitCooldown) on top of that, you can actually only
delete a building every 15 seconds while it also takes that same time to
destruct it. Players have voiced between 10s to 30s or more so 15s is
still a reasonable time, keeping deletion of mistakenly placed buildings
still possible, while also keeping a small 'scorched earth' option
during an attack but probably only being able to delete 1-2 units in an
attack. Evan and Vivacious Box agreed with the mentioned 10-15s cooldown
too:

## Description:
Betrayal count in PlayerUpdates came from stats. But stats are only kept
for players with ClientID aka real humans. So betrayals stayed 0 for
Nations even after betraying others. This PR fixes it by keeping a
seperate betrayal count for PlayerUpdates while stats are still being
kept to go in the database.

### Summary
Implements intelligent MIRV usage for fakehuman players, enabling them
to make strategic nuclear strikes based on game state analysis.
### Changes
#### Core FakeHuman Strategy (`FakeHumanExecution.ts`)
- **MIRV Decision System**: Added `considerMIRV()` method that evaluates
game state and determines optimal MIRV usage
- **Three Strategic Targeting Modes**:
1. **Counter-MIRV**: Retaliatory strikes against players actively
launching MIRVs at the fakehuman
2. **Victory Denial**: Preemptive strikes against players approaching
win conditions
- Team threshold: n% of total land (configurable)
- Individual threshold: n% of total land (configurable)
3. **Steamroll Prevention**: Strikes against players with dominant city
counts (n% ahead of next competitor)
#### FakeHuman Behavior Tuning
- **Cooldown System**: n-minute cooldown between MIRV attempts
(configurable)
- **Failure Rate**: ~n% chance of cooldown trigger without launch
(simulates human hesitation/resource management; configurable)
- **Territory Targeting**: Centers MIRV strikes on enemy territory
center-of-mass for maximum impact
#### Technical Improvements
- **Type Safety**: Updated `UnitParamsMap` to include `targetTile`
parameter for MIRV units
- **Execution Flow**: Integrated MIRV consideration into fakehuman tick
cycle outside of standard attack logic, due to its holistic strategic
nature
### Game Balance Impact
- **FakeHuman Threat Level**: Increases late-game fakehuman
competitiveness
- **Endgame Dynamics**: Prevents runaway victories, extends game tension
### Breaking Changes
None - purely additive feature

## Description:
This PR addresses issue #2302: where there is no obvious information
about the self-player's team during the spawn phase of the game.
Currently, during TEAM games (where there is a set number of teams
defined), the self player's spawn highlight color is white, while all
other players are shown with a team-based spawn highlight color. This
makes it difficult to discern who is a teammate, especially since the
current live version (v0.26.7) uses green/yellow for other players to
depict teammate/other team, respectively.
Technically, the same is true for Duos, Trios, and Quads games, although
this has been addressed separately with PR #2298 by reverting to
green/yellow for teammate/other team players.
This PR changes the color of the self player's breathing spawn highlight
ring to match their assigned team color (with `alpha=0.5` for
transparency). The breathing ring is semi transparent on top of the
existing white static semi-transparent ring, giving the breathing ring a
**tint** of the team color instead of the exact team color.
This allows a player to immediately identify their assigned team and
maintains overall consistency with FFA, Duos, Trios, and Quads game
modes.
See below for example implementation. In this screenshot, the self
player is on the red team as shown by the red tint to the breathing
spawn highlight ring. The screenshot also shows some of the static white
semi-transparent ring around the spawn location. The self player's
teammate is to the top left of the image with a solid red spawn
highlight. The non-player (nation) opponent on the blue team is shown to
the bottom left. In online games, nations are not present in team games.
In single player or private lobby games they are shown as here, without
a spawn color highlight and only a territory color.

## Description:
**This PR expands clan name possibilities available to players.**
**Suggested Label:** Feature
**Suggested Milestone:** v26 or v27
The current clan name logic does not allow for all alphanumeric
characters (e.g. 0-9). Instead it only allows for uppercase and
lowercase letters (e.g. a-z and A-Z). This PR updates the logic to
include 0-9 in the allowable character set. This is in line with how
many other games utilize clan names.
Secondarily, the requirement for the clan name to occur at the start of
the player name has been relaxed. Now, the requirement is that the clan
name is matched with `\[([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,5})\]`. The pre-requisites for
clan regex matching have been updated so that both `[` and `]` must be
*included* in the player name (whereas previously the `[` was required
to appear at the start of the player name). This allows the clan name to
occur anywhere in the player name.
Finally, clan names (once matched by RegEx) are converted to Uppercase
so that clan names such as `[un]`, `[UN]`, `[Un]`, and `[uN]` are all
recognized as the *same* clan.
As a result, all existing clan names remain valid, but new clan names
are now possible. For example `[3M]MeanMrMustard` now has `3M`
recognized as the clan name and `T[UN]able` now has `UN` recognized as
the clan name. Test cases within the `tests/PlayerInfo.tests.ts` file
have been updated accordingly to accurately represent the full
alphanumeric character set.
This addresses issue #2267.

## Description:
Remove some lines of code that do nothing in surroundedBySamePlayer,
gain a small bit of performance back. The code says "if it is an ocean
shore tile but not an ocean shore tile" which can never be true.
(Why where the lines there and why can they be removed:
Before you were able to boat on a lake, you had no escape from your land
if it bordered a lake and no ocean. So it was logical, if you bordered a
lake with your cluster, to still treat it as fully surrounded annexable
land.
This is why this code was added in [this
commit](https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/commit/ee56d687484131c092599434247b3a036e0e9668)
back then:
`const isOceanShore = this.mg.isOceanShore(tile); if
(this.mg.isShore(tile) && !isOceanShore) { continue; }`
But [this newer
commit](https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/commit/c1383d76f1f76c5e5f9be3a6f30b8f3010258540#diff-fb1101a2b50dd7c353d082ff7a3351cff5469b8249b3ebca91c10573a3dfaaf1)
made it so you could from then on boat on lakes. So you have an escape
from your cluster since then. And just like being on the edge of the map
or when bordering the ocean, this means your cluster won't get annexed.
However, while the updated code for PlayerExecution in the last commit
does its work as intended (it does not exclude lake shore tiles
anymore)... The code contradicts itself:
`const isOceanShore = this.mg.isOceanShore(tile); if
(this.mg.isOceanShore(tile) && !isOceanShore) { continue;}`
Conclusion: the code on lines 136-138 can be deleted because it
literally says "if it is an ocean shore tile but not an ocean shore
tile" which can never be true. Also remove the const and check
isOceanShore directly in the if statement.)

## Description:
Replaced Array.shift() in boat path iteration with an index-based loop
to avoid O(n) shifts per step. This reduces per-move cost and keeps
memory usage unchanged. I validated the change by running locally and
confirming behaviour is unchanged.
### Summary
This PR improves pathfinding performance by replacing Array.shift() with
an index-based iteration to get the next boat position.
Shifting the array for each move is O(n) per operation, whereas using an
index is O(1).
JavaScript does not free the memory of the shifted elements immediately,
so there’s no memory benefit to shift() in this context. Using an index
improves performance without additional memory cost.
### Testing & Caveats
- I attempted to test the performance gain by increasing the trade cap
to 5000, but on my system, neither method could be stressed enough to
produce measurable differences.
- I am unfamiliar with JavaScript profiling tools, so I do not have
exact performance numbers.
- Based on the change, there is no risk of decreased performance.
- In my minor testing, the boat pathfinding felt faster when a single
player was set to max speed as the game would slow down less.
### Notes
- This is primarily an optimization for future scalability and clean
performance improvements.
- With this change, the max boat cap can potentially be increased.
- The behavioural logic remains unchanged; the boats still navigate the
same paths as before.

**This PR improves spawn highlighting to identify self and friend/foe.
Suggested Label: Feature
Suggested Milestone: v26 or v27**
## Description:
**This PR changes the behavior for spawn color highlighting and
addresses issue #2270.**
Currently, the user's spawn highlight color is the same as all other
players in FFA and the same as all enemies in Team games. Although
"breathing" rings were added recently for the user's spawn highlight,
this can still be difficult to find on the map, especially with large
player counts.
This PR modifies how spawn highlights are drawn for the user and for
allies and enemies in Team games.
### User Spawn Color Updates
First, an additional spawn highlight color was added for the user in
`src/core/configuration/PastelTheme.ts`: `_spawnHighlightSelfColor`.
This is defined to be white (0xFFFFFF).
Second, the breathing ring was modified to improve visibility (all in
`src/client/graphics/layers/TerritoryLayer.ts`) :
- A radial-gradient transparent ring in the spawn color (white) is drawn
at all times
- The ring is transparent for `radius = 8` pixels from the player's
center point
- The gradient extends from `8` to `24` pixels from the player's center
point
- The first 10% of the ring (~ 1 pixel) is solid
- The remaining ring fades to transparent at `24` pixels
- A solid, "breathing" ring is drawn on top of the transparent ring
- The solid ring is also transparent for `radius = 8` pixels from the
center point
- The outer radius of the solid ring is a function of "time" in the same
way that the current breathing ring is implemented.
- The solid ring therefore grows and shrinks to cover the transparent
ring
### Other Player Spawn Color Updates
In FFA games, no change is made to the spawn color highlight of other
players. It remains `rgb(255,213,79)`.
In team games, the spawn color highlight of other players is updated to
use their team colors. For example, a player on the red team will have a
red spawn highlight, while a player on the purple team will have a
purple spawn highlight.
Both of these changes are handled with a simple update in
`src/client/graphics/layers/TerritoryLayer.ts` within the
`spawnHighlight()` method:
```typescript
const myPlayer = this.game.myPlayer();
if (myPlayer !== null && myPlayer !== human && myPlayer.team() === null) {
// In FFA games (when team === null), use default yellow spawn highlight color
color = this.theme.spawnHighlightColor();
} else if (myPlayer !== null && myPlayer !== human) {
// In Team games, the spawn highlight color becomes that player's team color
// Optionally, this could be broken down to teammate or enemy and simplified to green and red, respectively
const team = human.team();
if (team !== null) color = this.theme.teamColor(team);
}
```
### Attached Images
Three images have been attached. The three images show a progression of
the "breathing" user highlight. They also show the team-specific
highlights of players on other teams. (Note that Nations in the private
game were assigned teams but do not have spawn highlights).

### Misc.
- I added `.idea/` to `.gitignore` because I use JetBrains IDEs
- I expanded the `fallbackColors` list. Right now it has a lot of green
colors, so I added equivalents for red, blue, cyan, magenta, and yellow.

## Description:
When a main cluster is fully surrounded, the surrounding player is able
to attack them (based on AttackLogic in DefaultConfig). But so far
wasn't able to annex them.
Fix: turned around an isFriendly check in PlayerExecution. This way if
this.player is disconnected, they can get annexed, allied/team mate or
not.
This also means that in the edge case of surrounding player going AFK,
the enclosed main cluster can attack the disconnected surrounding player
and maybe fight it's way out of being enclosed.
Meant as hotfix for v26.

## Description:
There is a 5 second cooldown between building deletions (as was proposed
here:
https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/pull/1609#issuecomment-3146188728).
But this cooldown is only checked when in DeleteUnitExecution from
canDeleteUnit in PlayerImpl.
The delete button in RadialMenuElements always gets True back from
canDeleteUnit in GameView.
This results in a user seeing an enabled Delete button after just
deleting another building. And being able to click it, but no deletion
would happen. So they have to click 3-4 times before it 'works'.
Fix: also apply the 5s cooldown when deciding to disable the button.
In the fix in canDeleteUnit in GameView, added +1 to the current game
tick. So the Delete button is enabled 1 tick before DeleteUnitExecution
would get True back from canDeleteUnit in PlayerImpl. Between seeing and
clicking the button is probably 1 tick anyway, and sometimes also after
clicking it and the execution it takes another tick so this is safe.
Also tested the other way around: after deletion the button should
immediately not be visible, while it can take 2 ticks before GameView
gets lastDeleteUnitTick back from PlayerImpl. But since the Radial menu
is closed after clicking the button, i couldn't open it fast enough
again to still see the button enabled (ie. it was always already neatly
disabled). And if someone with an auto-clicker were to be able to click
it still, their attempt would still be blocked by the cooldown check in
DeleteUnitExecution.

## Description:
Cleanup code & small perf improvement
Gave it v26 milestone because it gives a little perf bump at no cost,
all the removed code isn't used anywhere so can be safely deleted.
Triple checked.
- Remove 'setFocusedPlayer' and 'checkTileUnderCursor' (not to be
confused by still in use 'getTileUnderCursor') from ClientGameRunner,
'_focusedPlayer' and 'setFocusedPlayer' (not to be confused with
still-in-use 'focusedPlayer') from GameView, and 'setFocusedPlayer' from
TransformHander.
These are remnants of PR #304, the first one that added highlighting
territory. The remants are still ran for every mouse-move, costing some
performance for no reason. _focusedPlayer is never used anywhere
anymore, only calculated and set.
It was later adapted from #387. But ultimately almost completely
disabled because it was too performance-costly, from commits 15c2cc1 and
then ec895af.
The thing that remained was permanent highlight of the player's own
border. For that, function 'focusedPlayer' in GameView is still used by
'drawFocusedPlayerHighlight' in TerritoryLayer. But it simply returns
myPlayer instead of the obsolete _focusedPlayer that it returned
earlier. Function 'focusedPlayer' still had the annotation "// TODO:
renable when performance issues are fixed." which i removed. Because
another PR for highlighting other's territory already followed it up
with its own functions, so chances of needing to change 'focusedPlayer'
back are very slim.
Later PR #1320 introduced a new attempt for highlighting territory in
the alternate view. It used its own equivalent functions in
TerritoryLayer for MouseOver and updateHighlightedTerritory (the latter
being the equivalent of the old checkTileUnderCursor in
ClientGameRunner). That was also disabled in part due to perfomance
cost, and now only shows border color changes. All this to say: the
remnants of PR 320 and 387 have long been redundant.
- Main: removed uncommented chatModal code, which was never used and
leftover from tests during development probably.
- PlayerActionHandler: removed handleQuickChat and the
sendQuickChatEvent import it needed. It was added in PR Multi-level
radial menu #1018. But the new Radial menu in the meantime moved to
using ChatIntegration.ts to send the chat event, or from there opened
the original Chat Modal which then sent the chat event. Later on, chat
was even removed from the Radial menu. 'handleQuickChat' is used nowhere
anymore and isn't needed. This is maybe also the case for
ChatIntegration, but i didn't remove it because it may still be enabled
again in the future for UI changes or something.
- OptionsMenu: removed, also from index.html (options-menu). This menu
has been succeeded by GameRightSidebar (game-right-sidebar for
index.html) for awhile now.

## Description:
1. Create forceSendAttack function so nations expand faster at the start
(their reserve troop ratio was too low, causing them to skip the first
attack
2. modify the perceived cost modifier to reduce the number of defense
posts built.
3. Updated how random land is selected to avoid player.tiles() since
that can be millions of entries.
4. Improve performance of valueFunction by using closestTile and
reducing the number of tiles checked.
5. Nations now launch hydros if they have enough gold.
6. used boundBox instead of bfs because doing a large bfs for h-bombs
can get expensive.
7. Modified perceived multiplayer to remove cap and scale super-linearly
to discourage nations from spamming too many building. Instead they are
more likely to spend that money on nukes.

I have often encountered the problem of characters that look alike when

In this PR, I therefore propose removing these 4 characters from ID

$$1.3\times10^{14}$$, which is still the same order of magnitude.

Patches issue flagged from
https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/pull/1957#issuecomment-3386398998.
Right now for every single defense post capture, attackers receive two
messages:
- "Your Defense Post was destroyed" and "Captured Defense Post from ..."
By downgrading before captures, behavior will now be:
- defender receives "Your Defense Post was destroyed"
- attacker receives no message unless capturing a lv2+ defense post
(downgraded to lv 1), in which case they receive "Captured Defense Post
from ..."

## Description:
Fixes#1685
Continuation from #1924, which was auto-closed after the upstream repo
force-pushed main and I synced my fork.
This change ensures that allies are excluded from the `getMode()` call
made by `getCapturingPlayer()` inside `removeCluster()`.
- Previously, friendly neighbors were treated as candidates for
capturing, leading to incorrect annexations in certain edge cases.
- Added a small efficiency improvement by filtering out non-player and
friendly neighbors up front to reduce total computations down-the-line.
- Important: we can’t simply check if the `getMode(neighborsIDs)` result
is a friendly. Doing so would cause the territory to go to nobody until
the user is attacked. I believe the expected behavior is the largest
neighboring enemy should take it automatically.
Here's an example of the new behavior in an extreme edge case:

Closes https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/issues/1619.
On capture, defense posts will be downgraded.

- added `decreaserLevel` helper
- cleaned up if/else in tick unit loop for clarity to avoid yet another
nested layer
