## Description:
(re-submission of older PR because the old one had too many merge
conflicts)
Re-adds and reworks the previously April Fools "Reglaciated Antarctica"
as a new map, this time with proper elevation data: Map of Antarctica
centered in the South Pole.
The "appeal" of this a map is that it has no green terrain. (As such it
has a really low rotation number (of 1). )
This also completes the Continental map category (antarctica was the
only continent out of the traditional 7 missing).

The base map image is a composite of 2 relief maps from 2 different
sources, both properly credited

The WS message handler read X-Forwarded-For[0] (the leftmost entry,
which is client-controllable) to key a per-IP rate limiter and to
populate the IP passed to Turnstile, Client, and the unique-IP winner
check. A client could send a different XFF per connection to bypass
all of these and indefinitely grow the limiter map.
- Drop the per-IP limiter entirely; Cloudflare already rate-limits at
the edge and no other path used this limiter.
- Add getClientIp(): prefer cf-connecting-ip (set by Cloudflare), fall
back to req.socket.remoteAddress (always nginx since workers bind
127.0.0.1). Any XFF/X-Real-IP fallback would just give CF's edge IP
or a spoofable value, so they're omitted.

Similar to how Europe classic was taken off rotation, we do the same
with Britannia. The newer Britannia was slightly updated to include the
rivers of the classic version, this is because of feedback from players
in the discord server who say the rivers in the classic version are an
important part of gameplay. Map otherwise keeps same nations and size.

Because of mixed opinions about replacing the maps, i propose at least
this temporary compromise: Bering Sea gets added as a new map and Bering
Strait gets its rotation lowered to a small number. Since the classic
maps are probably being taken off rotation, we should have some small
breathing space for the 2 maps.
In the near future we should discuss between mapmakers in the dev server
whether we keep, replace or completely take Bering Strait off rotation,
and/or a community poll.

## Description:
* Move proprietary brand images (logos, favicon) from resources/images/
to proprietary/images/ to separate open-source assets from proprietary
ones
* Extend the asset pipeline (PublicAssetManifest, vite.config.ts) to
support multiple source directories (resources/ + proprietary/), so
buildAssetUrl resolves assets from either location transparently
* In dev, serve proprietary/ as a fallback middleware (registered after
Vite's publicDir handler) so resources/ takes precedence when files
exist in both. The idea is we could have placeholder assets placeholders
that can be used by forks, and only the production build uses
proprietary assets.

## 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)

Adds map of the Caucasus. This map is made especifically because of the
new update that allows ports to be placed on smaller bodies of water,
rather than just the largest one.
This map has 2 disconnected, large bodies of water of similar size
(Black and Caspian seas), which would create 2 independent trade
systems, creating a more dynamic economy.

## Description:
This was a proposal in the map channel of the dev discord server:
**Updates the Europe map to include Iceland, and removes Classic Europe
off rotation.** Classic Europe will remain in custom private map list
The only thing the new europe map didnt have from the classic version
was iceland, so i figured we should update the europe map to contain it,
since Iceland is a popular spawn in the classic version. Iceland is in
the same position as the classic map
The classic europe is frankly a lesser version of the new map as it
doesnt contain rivers , is smaller and the terrain has less quality, and
with the updated version, classic would just take up very needed space
in the lobby queue. We currently have a very large number of maps, which
results in players having to wait for a long time for an specific map in
public lobbies. This should help the issue a little at the very least.

## 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:
The new hashed public asset pipeline treated `manifest.json` as a
derived asset, but BMFont XML files were still copied as raw files.
That broke bitmap fonts in production:
- the XML was loaded through the hashed asset manifest
- the XML still referenced an unhashed `file="...png"` page
- Pixi resolved that relative to the hashed XML URL
- the unhashed page file did not exist under `/_assets/...`
This PR extends the derived asset rewriting model to BMFont XML so font
page references are rewritten before hashing and emission.
## What changed
- Refactored the public asset build pipeline to distinguish:
- raw assets hashed from source bytes
- derived assets hashed from rewritten content
- Replaced the `manifest.json` one-off special case with a small
derived-asset registry
- Added BMFont XML derived-asset handling for `fonts/**/*.xml`
- Rewrote `<page file="...">` entries to hashed relative page paths
- Moved `_assets/asset-manifest.mjs` emission to the end of the Vite
asset sync step
Added regression coverage for:
- rewritten web manifest hashing
- BMFont XML page rewrite
- nested relative BMFont page paths
- hard failure on missing derived asset references

## Description:
Requesting that these 4 maps be added temporarily for the April Fools
holiday. Included are:
- A wider version of the Amazon River to allow for larger ships.
- An edit of The Box with more varied terrain.
- A modification to The World which optimizes play for mobile users.
- A custom remix to Antarctica which re-adds ice to the map.
All maps are edits of existing work. All maps have been added as their
own individual map files rather than edits to existing files for ease of
management.

## Description:
Update from Express 4.22 > 5.2.1. And @types/express 4.17 > 5.0.6.
### CodeQL errors unjustified: Please dismiss the unjustified [CodeQL
scanning
results](https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/security/code-scanning?query=pr%3A3549+tool%3ACodeQL+is%3Aopen)
for playground/server.ts: they were flagged for this PR but i didn't
touch those specific parts of the file. More importantly: it is a test
server, created by Mole/ @Aareksio. I made requests to dismiss the
alerts but don't have the permissions to actually dismiss them myself
Version 5 was the first major upgrade in 10 years when it was released
in Sept 2024. 5.21 is from Dec 2025 so v5 teething problems should be
over by now. Many of its dependencies also updated by some major
versions. So it seems a worthy update but that is for you to decide. v4
will be EOL when v6 arrives, however that could be a year from now still
maybe.
- Migration:
-- Updated package.json, ran `npm install "express@5"` and `npm install
"@types/express@5.0.6"`.
-- Used https://expressjs.com/en/guide/migrating-5.html
-- Ran the codemods from the migration guide `npx codemod@latest
@expressjs/v5-migration-recipe`.
-- Checked manually.
-- Checked again with help of Gemini 3.1 Pro based on same guide.
-- Master.ts: use `*splat` instead of `*`, tested and going to
non-existing URL lands back on index.html like it should.
-- Worker.ts: MIME type _webp_ is now supported natively so remove added
config.
-- playground/server.ts: fix type error after upgrading types/express
for `name` in `req.params`. And `app.listen` handles user provided
callback on error, use that. The latter may not be not needed per se.
-- While v5 does this now "When an error is thrown in an async function
or a rejected promise is awaited inside an async function, those errors
will be passed to the error handler as if calling next(err).", choose to
leave our try/catch'es be. Since we use specific errors, probably easier
for consistency in log searches and user reporting.
- About performance:
-- While [Express 5 seems a bit slower than
4](https://www.repoflow.io/blog/express-4-vs-express-5-benchmark-node-18-24),
it is not by much especially on Node24 which we're on. Also there's a
working group dedicated to improving Express performance, albeit they
expect v6/7 to benefit from that more than v5 will.
-- While there are faster alternatives in benchmarks, [in real-world
usage Express still holds up as one of the best and even beats most
'faster'
alternatives](https://medium.com/deno-the-complete-reference/node-js-the-fastest-web-framework-in-2025-static-file-server-case-1df462ad38cd).

## 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 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
