Resolves#4169
## Description:
Adds a delayed lobby start option.
Utilizes the same system as for public lobbies.
The default for the option is for lobbies to take 3 seconds to start,
however this can easily be changed.
The current setting is controlled through an enable-disable slider,
however there are multiple other options for how to control this.
For example we could do a slider, an input field, a dropdown etc. And i
dont necessarily know if the currently implemented option is the best.
Furhtermore im not sure if i have used the language file completely
correctly. There is now a duplicate field for both private and public
lobby. However there is not category shared between the two. So i
decided to reuse the field from public for private games, as this
simplified the code a bit.

Resolves#3959
## Description:
This PR fixes a Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerability in 1v1 matches
related to desync reporting. The `findOutOfSyncClients` logic previously
forced a game-ending desync if half or more players reported conflicting
hashes (`outOfSyncClients.length >= Math.floor(this.activeClients.length
/ 2)`). In a 1v1, this meant a single malicious player sending a bad
hash could trigger a global desync, crashing their opponent's game
session.
The logic has been corrected to require a **strict majority** (`>
Math.floor(this.activeClients.length / 2)`) to declare a lobby-wide
desync. In a 1v1 game, a single malicious actor will now simply be
flagged as the out-of-sync client and disconnected, allowing the honest
player to continue their session uninterrupted.

## Description:
- Added optional `disableClanTags` to `GameConfig`. When set, the server
strips clan tags from `gameInfo` (lobby broadcasts/HTTP) and
`gameStartInfo` (start payload) before sending to clients. Archive keeps
the originals.
- Enabled `disableClanTags` for public FFA games (both the regular FFA
playlist and special when randomized to FFA). No UI; clients still see
their own clan tag via local input state.

The preview was calling assignTeams without friend data, so the
team layout shown in the lobby could differ from the layout the
game actually started with. Wire friends through ClientInfo so
the preview matches.
Extract the publicId→clientID translation used by both start()
and gameInfo() into buildFriendsLookup() to remove the duplicate.
Fixes#3911
## Description:
- Server captures `publicId` and `friends` from `getUserMe()` and
includes each player's in-game friend `clientID`s in `PlayerSchema` on
game start
- Team assignment treats friends as a **soft preference** (best-effort):
a non-clan player goes to the team where the most of their friends
already are; if that team is full they spill to the next-emptiest team
rather than getting kicked
- Clans remain strict (kick overflow) since clan membership is an
explicit opt-in; friends are implicit, so a friend-of-friend chain that
doesn't fit shouldn't bench anyone
- Friendship is symmetric — an edge from either direction counts, which
keeps things working when one side's `getUserMe` is stale
- Lobby preview unchanged — friend grouping only takes effect once the
game actually starts (avoids exposing friend lists in the lobby payload)

The catch block in sendStartGameMsg() re-throws the error, which means a
single client's WebSocket failure (e.g. disconnected during game start)
propagates up and can crash the entire game server. The start() method
calls sendStartGameMsg() in a forEach loop over all clients, so one bad
client kills the game for everyone.
Changes:
- Added readyState check before sending
- Replaced re-throw with structured error logging
- A single client failure now logs the error and continues gracefully

## Description:
This is a refactor to simplify config handling.
Replaces the per-environment DevConfig/PreprodConfig/ProdConfig class
hierarchy with two static classes: ClientEnv (browser main thread, reads
from window.BOOTSTRAP_CONFIG) and ServerEnv (Node server, reads from
process.env). The four config classes are deleted, the abstract
DefaultServerConfig is gone, and DefaultConfig is renamed to Config.
The values that flow server → client (gameEnv, numWorkers,
turnstileSiteKey, jwtAudience, instanceId) used to be baked into the
hardcoded per-env classes. They're now real env vars on the server,
embedded into a single window.BOOTSTRAP_CONFIG object in index.html at
request time (alongside the existing gitCommit/assetManifest/cdnBase
globals, which moved into the same object), and read back by ClientEnv
on the client. The dev defaults previously hidden inside DevServerConfig
are now explicit in start:server-dev (NUM_WORKERS=2,
TURNSTILE_SITE_KEY=1x..., JWT_AUDIENCE=localhost, etc.) and in
vite.config.ts's html plugin inject.data. Production deploys plumb
NUM_WORKERS and TURNSTILE_SITE_KEY through deploy.yml (GitHub vars) into
the remote env file; JWT_AUDIENCE is derived from DOMAIN in deploy.sh.
The dynamic /api/instance endpoint is gone — INSTANCE_ID rides along in
BOOTSTRAP_CONFIG now.
ServerEnv is the only thing server code touches; ClientEnv is
browser-only. The two classes have intentional overlap (env, numWorkers,
jwtIssuer, gameCreationRate, workerIndex, etc.) since they derive
identical logic from different sources — there's a TODO in each to
consolidate via a shared helper later. The game-logic Config no longer
stores a ServerConfig/ClientEnv reference and its serverConfig() getter
is gone; the one caller (MultiTabModal) now reads ClientEnv.env()
directly. Worker init no longer carries server-config values since
nothing in the worker actually reads them.

## 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

Previously, winnerVotes was keyed only on winner, so a client could send the correct winner with spoofed allPlayersStats and have their vote count toward the majority. The key is now a SHA-256 hash of both winner and allPlayersStats together, so any stats divergence produces a distinct key that must independently reach majority.
When the winner is confirmed, the log now includes votesByKey — a summary of every distinct key, its vote count, and winner value — making stat manipulation visible in the logs.

## 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:
When the host of a private lobby disconnects before the game starts, the
lobby is now closed:
- **Server:** Detects host disconnection via `creatorPersistentID`
match, kicks all remaining clients with a `host_left` reason, and marks
the game as ended so it's cleaned up by the game manager and can no
longer be joined.
- **Client:** Participants receive an `alert()` saying "The host has
left the lobby." and their JoinLobbyModal is closed automatically via
the `leave-lobby` event.
- **Phase logic:** `phase()` now returns `Finished` for ended private
lobbies that haven't started, preventing the game from lingering in
`Lobby` state.

## Description:
* Adds ClientMsgRateLimiter — a per-client token-bucket rate limiter
that gates all incoming WebSocket messages. Returns "ok", "limit"
(drop), or "kick" based on the violation type.
* Intent messages are capped at 500 bytes each (they are stored in turn
history for the game duration, so oversized intents
accumulate in server RAM). Violations kick the client.
* Winner messages bypass the byte rate limit (they include stats for all
players and can be 100s of KB) but are strictly capped at one per client
— a second winner message kicks the client.
* All other messages go through the standard per-second (10/s) and
per-minute (150/min) rate limits. Violations drop the message; byte
budget exhaustion kicks the client.
* WebSocket maxPayload set to 2 MB on game workers.
Invalid (unparseable) messages now immediately kick the client rather
than being silently dropped.
Unit tests added for all rate limiting behaviors.

After a player left, the server would fall back to Lobby phase if player
count dropped below the max — even if the game had already started.
Now checks hasStarted() before reporting Lobby phase.
## Description:
Rex had this idea: "It would be funny to have an option in private
lobbies to disable alliances."
I added it as an option.
Now people can choose to live in constant fear of their neighbors 😆
Also added two new public game modifiers for variety (only for the
special rotation):
- Alliances disabled (low probability)
- x2 gold multiplier (low probability)
Would be nice to squeeze this into v30, last minute?

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.

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.**

Fix player rename in pre-game lobby on rejoin
Previously, when a player left a lobby, changed their name, and
rejoined, the server reused the original Client object without updating
the username. Now rejoinClient accepts the new username and applies it
if the game hasn't started yet, while still preserving names mid-game
for consistency.

## 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.

## 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

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

We might want to add this to v29 to have a third possible public game

- 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)

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
## Checklist:
- [x] I have added screenshots for all UI updates
- [x] I process any text displayed to the user through translateText()
and I've added it to the en.json file
- [x] I have added relevant tests to the test directory
