Resolves Issue #4463
## Description:
An optional game mode that (almost) guarantees a finish instead of
letting late-game
stalemates drag on.
Originally called sudden death, renamed to Doomsday clock
Once enabled, every side (each player in FFA, each whole team in team
modes)
must hold a rising share of the map. A side below the bar is skulled;
after a
short warn its troops bleed to zero, forcing consolidation to a winner.
### How it works
- **Rising zone:** a grace period, then the required share ramps up
linearly to
each level with 30s pauses between (a battle-royale "zone"). Levels
track the
ofstats FFA territory median (3/5/10/20/30%).
- **Four speed presets** (slow / normal / fast / very fast) change only
the pace:
normal ends ~30 min, very fast ~15.
- **Troop decay:** a linear ramp as a % of max capacity, ~50s from
caught to zero
(10s warn + ~50s ≈ 1 min total).
- **UI:** a HUD panel (live share vs target, wave/decay countdowns,
red/orange
cues) and an on-map skull above flagged players (blinks in danger,
steady while
draining).
### Notes for review
- Off by default; no effect on existing games. However, as discussed we
can add it to the modifier pool for public games to see how popular the
gamemode is vs normal play.
- Sim is deterministic (integer-only, in `src/core`), covered by unit +
integration tests.
- One-line addition to `GameServer.updateGameConfig` so the setting
survives the
host → server → client round-trip.
- Status is packed into the existing name-pass data slot (`pd4.w`: 0/1/2
=
none/danger/draining); the skull is composited into the icon atlas at
load.
### Testing
`npm test`, `npm run lint`, `npx prettier --check .`, `npm run
build-prod` all pass.

## Description:
Warship veterancy! This is an idea inspired by the unit veterancy
feature of games like C&C: Red Alert 2 in which unit eliminations
increases the level of individual units. I've been trying to build this
mechanic for months with different ideas, and I finally landed on this
being one of the more balanced implementation.
Warships can earn up to three levels, represented by the gold bar
insignia in the bottom right of their warship sprite.
<img width="622" height="202" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/a8c31a45-4ae9-41a9-b054-9c4a7f4ab1f1"
/>
A veterancy bar grants 20% health from the base amount, and a 20%
increase in shell damage applied _after_ the random damage roll. For
example, a level 3 warship will apply a 60% damage boost on top of the
random shell damage value (something between 200-325. If the random
value is 250, the final damage output will be `250 * 1.60 = 400`.
There are three ways to achieve a veteran level:
1. **Eliminate another warship:** any time a warship neutralizes another
warship, it immediately get's a veterancy increase.
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/6a9e0958-5171-4ca3-94f6-9c2300a12f8b
2. **Eliminate transport boats:** Destroying 10 transport boats will
level a warship to the next veterancy bar.
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/619ce0c0-033c-4e0b-9c64-b41eabaa791b
3. **Steal trade ships:** If the warship captures 25 trade ships, it
will earn a veterancy bar.

## Description:
Relates to #3725
Adds a new **Impassable** terrain type that enables non-rectangular maps
and creates impassable barriers on the map. Painted with pure black
(`#000`) in the map editor's `image.png`.
**Encoding:** Impassable terrain is encoded in the binary format as
`isLand=1, magnitude=31` (previously unused). The Go map generator
detects `#000` pixels and produces this encoding. The map generator's
minimap downscaling gives impassable highest priority (Impassable >
Water > Land). Thumbnails render impassable as transparent so the map
picker background shows through.
**Rendering:** Impassable tiles render as the map background colour
(`rgb(60, 60, 60)`, matching `gl.clearColor` in `Renderer.ts`), making
them visually indistinguishable from the area outside the map quad. This
enables maps to appear non-rectangular.
**Gameplay restrictions:** Impassable terrain cannot be:
- Owned (`conquer()` throws)
- Attacked (`AttackExecution` skips impassable tiles in both `tick()`
and `addNeighbors()`)
- Nuked (targeting rejected in `nukeSpawn()`, blast radius filtered in
`tilesToDestroy()`)
- Spawned on (nations, human players, and structures all reject
impassable tiles)
- Converted to water (guarded in `WaterManager` and `setWater()`)
**Nuke trajectories:** Nuke trajectories cannot cross impassable
terrain, matching the existing map-border enforcement. This is checked
at launch time in `NukeExecution.tick()`. The client-side trajectory
preview turns red with a red X where the arc crosses impassable terrain
(reusing the existing SAM-intercept visual pipeline in
`NukeTrajectory.ts`). The nuke ghost preview is completely hidden when
hovering over impassable terrain (same as hovering outside the map).

/>
Tested with water nukes, made sure there is no water depth gradient near
the impassable terrain, just like at the world border:

## Summary
The WebGL renderer was adapted from an external extension and carried a
lot of machinery this integration never uses (replay playback, its own
input/event system, a GL radial menu). This PR is two mechanical cleanup
passes with **no behavior change**: delete the dead code, then untangle
the `GameView` naming collision.
**78 files, +142 / −2,197.**
### Pass 1 — remove dead extension baggage
- **Replay/copy mode**: `FrameData.tileMode` was hard-coded `"live"`;
the copy branches in `frame/Upload.ts`, `UploadOptions` (never passed),
`applyFullFrame`/`applyFullTiles`/`applyDelta` on the facade and
`GPURenderer`, `HeatManager.resetForSeek`, and the seek-upload methods
on `TerritoryPass`/`TrailPass` were all unreachable. Also deletes
`types/Replay.ts`, `types/FrameSource.ts`, `types/GameUpdates.ts`,
`types/Game.ts` (imported only by the types barrel).
- **FrameEvents**: trimmed from 14 fields to the 3 actually populated
and read (`deadUnits`, `conquestEvents`, `bonusEvents`). The other 11
fed the extension's stats system and were never written or read here.
- **GL radial menu**: `RadialMenuPass`, its 4 shaders, and ~10 API
methods on facade + renderer had zero callers — the game uses the DOM/d3
radial menu in `hud/layers/RadialMenu.ts`. The pass was constructed and
drawn every frame for nothing.
- **Facade event system**: `GameViewEventMap` defined 10 event types
(`click`, `hover`, `scroll`, …) but only `contextrestored` was ever
emitted — input actually flows through `InputHandler` → EventBus →
controllers. Replaced the listener map with a single `onContextRestored`
callback and deleted `Events.ts`. Also fixed the stale header comment
claiming the facade handles user interaction.
- **Unused API surface**: removed ~20 facade/renderer methods with zero
callers (camera passthroughs like
`panTo`/`zoomTo`/`fitMap`/`screenToWorld`, hit-testing queries, SAM
replay setters, `setSelectedUnit`, `clearFx`/`setFxTimeFn`,
`onFrame`/`afterRender`/fps tracking).
Deliberately left alone: `Camera`'s pan/zoom primitives (building blocks
for a possible future camera unification) and the `timeFn` plumbing
inside the FX passes (deeply embedded as defaults; only the dead
renderer-level wrappers were removed).
### Pass 2 — untangle the three GameViews
- `render/gl/GameView.ts` → **`MapRenderer.ts`** (class `MapRenderer`).
Every importer was already aliasing it as `WebGLGameView` to dodge the
collision with the simulation-mirror `GameView` in `client/view/`, so
this removes aliasing rather than adding churn. `render/CLAUDE.md`
updated.
- Deleted the `src/core/game/GameView.ts` back-compat shim (its own TODO
asked for this). All 51 importers now import from `src/client/view/`
directly via a new 3-line barrel `view/index.ts`.
## Test plan
- `tsc --noEmit` clean, `eslint` clean
- Full test suite passes (1,385 + 65 server tests)
- Manual verification via headless Chromium: started a singleplayer game
and confirmed the renderer works end-to-end — terrain draws, spawn-phase
overlay shows, territories fill with borders after spawning, player
names/flags render, no renderer console errors

## Description:
I copied the PR #3743 from @luctrate (Add army limit warning indicator
for team games) to this PR because he didn't respond to requested
changes but I thought it's important.
I expanded on it, now its a full help message system:
**Warnings (orange):**
- Army limit: shown in team games with donations when troops exceed 80%
of max
- Low troops: shown when troops drop below 1k (=> new noob player who
clicks too much)

**Info messages (blue):**
- Borders a traitor ally: "You can betray traitors without becoming a
traitor yourself" (Because its not obvious for new players)
- Borders an allied AFK player: "You can attack disconnected players
even if you are allied with them" (Because its not obvious for new
players)
- Borders an AFK teammate: "You can attack disconnected teammates"
(Because its not obvious for new players)
Info messages only appear when the player has not attacked the relevant
neighbor for at least 15 seconds, so they do not show up without reason.

Implementation details:
- Border detection uses async borderTiles() refreshed every 1s, cached
in a Set of nearby player smallIDs
- Outgoing attacks are tracked per-target to compute the 15-second idle
threshold
- New armyLimitWarningThreshold() on Config (returns 0.8)
- All user-facing strings go through translateText() with en.json
entries

## 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.

`QuickChatExecution` had no cooldown, allowing a player to spam
quick-chat intents and flood a recipient's chat UI. This could bury
incoming alliance request notifications, preventing them from being seen
or accepted.
This fix mirrors the existing emoji cooldown pattern:
- Added `quickChatCooldown()` to `Config` (default: 30 ticks / 3 seconds)
- Added `canSendQuickChat(recipient)` and `recordQuickChat(recipient)`
to `Player` / `PlayerImpl`, tracking outgoing chats per recipient
- `QuickChatExecution.tick()` now checks `canSendQuickChat` before
displaying and records before the display calls (so the cooldown is
always written even if display throws)
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.
## 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
Re-enables Turnstile verification (was temporarily disabled in v31 to
diagnose intermittent `invalid-input-response` rejections) and moves the
verification call off the game servers.
Game servers no longer hold `TURNSTILE_SECRET_KEY` or hit
`challenges.cloudflare.com` directly. Instead they POST to
`${jwtIssuer}/turnstile` on the api-worker (authenticated with the
existing `apiKey`), which holds the secret and proxies to Cloudflare.
Shrinks blast radius and removes the secret from every game host + GH
Actions workflow.
Response from the api-worker is Zod-validated; null tokens short-circuit
to `rejected` locally.

Part of [#2661](https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/issues/2661)
(split into 3 PRs so they are not too large..)
## Description:
Part 2/3 of
[#2661](https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/issues/2661).
This PR adds port-based healing and docking behavior:
- Passive healing near friendly ports
- Active docked healing pool scaled by port level and shared across
docked ships
- Docking radius and capacity-by-port-level behavior
- Waiting behavior near full ports until a slot opens
- Auto-undock once fully healed
For the active healing, it works like `ActiveHeal = (PortLevel * 5) /
DockedShipsAtThatPort`
Ex:
1 ship at level 1 port -> +5 HP/tick
1 ship at level 2 port → +10 HP/tick
2 ships at level 3 port → +7.5 HP/tick each
Includes regression tests covering healing math and docking/waiting
behavior.

## 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:
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?

## Description:
Now that pathfinding is much more efficient with hpa*, we can add more
trade ships.
This PR does the following:
1. No gold bonus for additional ports, keeps the meta simple
2. cut the gold per trade ship roughly in half.
3. Use a "pity bonus", the more times a port has failed to spawn a
tradeship, the higher the likelyhood it will spawn one
4. Increase the sigmoid so the mid-point is 200, with a half life of 50.
In tests about ~400 trade ships max.
It's pretty difficult to balance on singleplayer so I'm sure the values
will be adjusted after playtests.

## Description:
As far as I can remember, in v28 the spawn immunity applied to both
humans and nations.
With the configurable spawn immunity (added for v29) the spawn immunity
no longer applies to nations... Because its called PVP immunity now.
So right now it's possible to spawnkill nations. This is a big problem
for the 5M gold modifier games... And you can "cheat" in singleplayer.
This PR changes two things:
- Nations always have 5 seconds spawn immunity now, no matter whats
configured for the PVP immunity
- Nations attack TerraNullius earlier (Otherwise the easy nations would
sometimes do their first attack after the 5 seconds are over, spawnkills
would still be possible)

## Description:
Adds 30 seconds of PVP immunity to 5M starting gold modifier games.
So you cannot insta-nuke other players.
Because I'm sure people would be confused "I cannot attack!!!!" I added
a HeadsUpMessage which informs about the PVP immunity.
We already have a ImmunityTimer progress bar but I don't think its
enough.

I had a second count in the HeadsUpMessage (seconds until PVP immunity
is over) but it felt too busy. So I removed it. You can tell when PVP
immunity is over by looking at the progress bar.

## Description:
We might want to add this to v29 to have a third possible public game
modifier from the beginning on 😄 Would be fun
- 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:
The calculation is based on: 50 players per 1_000_000 land tiles,
limited at 125 players because of performance
Second number is 75% of that, third one 50%
That way, the player counts are staying mostly the same
Look at the "Dynamic Config" column, these are the new player counts:
(The 125 players limit is missing in that column, only relevant for the
twolakes map)

## 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

## Discord Tag
`moleole`
## 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.

## Description:
This PR removes the nation strength. Reasoning:
- It is currently unused. The backstory can be found in #2498
- It forces map-makers to do balancing work, which is probably not a
good idea
- It increases map-making work
- It increases nation balancing complexity by a lot (we need to have all
the json files in mind)
- It makes humans avoid map areas completely because there is always
that one, same, strong nation
- The map lead Nikola123 wants to "not deal with the stupid nations and
their balancing"
If the goal of nation strength was to make them feel different I would
suggest a nation personality system. Nations that love to boat, love to
ally, love to nuke, love to fullsend, etc.

## 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.

In commit
https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/commit/bbf72bd14f7f31146c687523aea8fc0aff31bbe1#diff-ee2fcbca50d87cc09d2c7d2667210defe2e3e111239820c89c40283be5385b64
it was added that startManpower in DefaultConfig used
playerInfo.nation.strength to set the starting troops for a Nation. In
ExecutionManager, param nation of PlayerInfo was set during the
instantiation of a new FakeHumanExecution.
However in commit
https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/commit/d6a412aa50dd86d474d80c216fd9ba36e7426ef9#diff-2d0a5d8b171d8b504f934891025e42742e142ef0964d6e17712bfdcd30bf050c
the changes made it so that **param nation of PlayerInfo was never
set**. While startManpower in DefaultConfig still checked for
playerinfo.nation.strength. Since it was always undefined, it would use
a multiplier of 1 instead of the actual nation strength.
This PR fixes it by passing the nation strength to param nationStrength
in PlayerInfo. Removing param strength from class Nation. Strength isn't
used anywhere else so this isn't a problem and it also consolidates
human player info and nation player info even more. We could have also
used the Nation.strength directly, but that would have required more
code in addPlayers and addPlayer in GameImpl, especially for Teams
games. So this PR has the simplest solution.
- I did add a config setting useNationStrengthForStartManpower with a
comment that explains its reason for being. Namely that in the months
that startManpower didn't get to use nation strength because of the bug,
FakeHumans have become much harder to fight. Re-enabling higher starting
troops from this fix would make them even harder to fight, and i think
rebalancing is needed before that.
- Or we could decide to scrap Nation strength altogether, as it is only
ever used to set starting troops anyway. This would make map making a
little easier as a bycatch.

After the v27 playtest, some players experienced instant death on spawn.
The issue was that the human random spawn occasionally coincided with a

locations and could appear on the same tile, now they don’t.

Resolves#2447
## Description:
This PR updates the logic used to generate structure fill and border
colors. Currently, (v0.26.16 and earlier), some light territory colors
have structures that are difficult to see and identify. This PR ensures
that all territory colors have structures that are easily visible.
Instead of using `Colord.lighten()` and `Colord.darken()` to generate
structure colors, the logic now:
- queries the territory color and border color of the structure owner
- Converts these colors to the [LAB color
space](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CIELAB_color_space) (which is a
human-perception-uniform color space).
- Darkens the border color (by decreasing LAB luminance) and sometimes
lightens the territory color (by increasing LAB luminance) until a
specific `Color Delta` is achieved (currently `delta > 0.5`)
- This ensures contrast between the structure and the territory
background.
Additionally, this PR re-organizes colors in the `Colors.ts` file for
better visibility and removes redundant colors from the `nationColors`
list.
This PR is an implementation of the proposed mock-up posted on imgur in
issue #2447. Screenshots of the original, final, and side-by-side
comparison of structure colors (for all available player colors) are in
the [imgur
album](https://imgur.com/a/openfront-color-playground-4cxSbbj).
I'd recommend inclusion as a feature/fix for v27.

## Description:
Implements SAM range extension for stacked SAMs to cover hydros as
requested in #2347 and many times from users in discord.
This implementation is as simple as possible: At level 5 and higher,
SAMs extend their range to the range of a hydrogen bomb + 10 for a small
safety margin. Levels 2-4 are interpolated between.
Screenshot to show the sizes compared to a hydro:
<img width="400" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/a857d66c-e3d4-467f-855f-3539cc90b719"
/>
Everything works together with the new range UI, although I might need
to unify with / rebase on #2350. Not yet tested with #2348, but
shouldn't be an issue.
## Input needed:
- Should I add tests for this?
- This is in effect a massive buff to SAMs, might be too strong. Popular
ideas / suggestions from Discord to balance things:
- Cap the SAM upgrade level at the maximum range (easy to do)
- Alternative, instead of capping the level, decrease the range when
missiles are reloading
- Increase the cost scaling for SAMs per stack, and scale way higher
(e.g. 1.5M > 3M > 4.5M > 6M or something like that) (UI integration
unclear, breaks with existing cost logic)
- Decrease SAM hit probability for Hydros
I'm happy to implement any of these paths, or just roll with the simple
way it's set up now, just let me know.

## Description:
The **proximityBonusPortsNb** function increased the likelihood a
tradeship would go to a nearby port. But now that trade gold is nerfed
from nearby ports, we shouldn't encourage trading with ports that are
too close. So now add another factor **tradeShipShortRangeDebuff** That
cancels out the proximity bonus if the port is too close.
Now tradeships are encouraged to go to ports that are close, but not too
close.
Also move tradingPorts method to the PortExecution class because that's
the only place it's used.
