## 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).
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/28302464-c533-483e-8a1b-2699093921ff
The base map image is a composite of 2 relief maps from 2 different
sources, both properly credited

/>
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:
- Cache `sharedWaterComponents` globally with a 30-tick (~3s) TTL so all
nations share one `O(total_border_tiles)` pass instead of each nation
re-scanning every other player's border on every call.
- Treat ocean as always-shared: any ocean neighbor short-circuits as a
valid port site, skipping the `getWaterComponent` lookup in both the
build pass and the per-tile port check.
- Exclude bots and mutually-embargoed players from the trade-partner
candidate set, so nations no longer avoid port sites that only "share"
water with a player they can never trade with.
Port placement is not time-critical, so the 3-second staleness is
acceptable and lets the expensive build amortize across many attack
cycles.
### Performance
Benchmarked on World map (2000×1000, 61 nations) with the realistic call
pattern of ~3 nations invoking `sharedWaterComponents` per tick:
- **Before (main):** ~414 μs per tick
- **After:** ~8 μs per tick amortized (29/30 ticks hit the warm cache;
1/30 rebuilds)
- **~50× faster** on this AI hot path

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:
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)

- **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

https://troop-advantage-layer.openfront.dev/
Hey OpenFront dev team, I've been really enjoying the game, and the
v0.30 changes have felt great so far. Happy to start contributing!
This PR introduces `AttackingTroopsOverlay`, a layer that renders live
attacker vs. defender troop counts directly on active front lines.
Players can immediately gauge combat strength without leaving the map
view.

A recent change updates the layer to just the # of attackers and a
symbol for attack/defence:

Left: Perspective of Anon 667 (Blue) | Right: Perspective of Anon332
(Red)

**How it works:**
- Attacker count shown for ground invasions. When attacking, your troop
count will display amber for disadvantageous, and green for advantageous
battles. When defending, the enemy troop count will switch to red if you
are at a severe disadvantage.
- Label position recalculates every tick at 200ms, tracking the front
line as it moves.
- Automatically hidden during Terrain view (spacebar)
- Labels clean up when an attack ends or its target becomes invalid
**Settings:** An "Attacking Troops Overlay" toggle is added to Settings,
enabled by default.

Adds Aegean map, a map centered in the Aegean Sea and the aegean islands
between Greece and Turkey. Map has approx. 1M land tiles, size of
1600x2000.
Nations are named after Ancient Greece era city-states and tribes.
Elevation source from OpenTopography, already credited

This has been a heavily requested map in the community, having
suggestions in the Discord, Subreddit and even in some videos (for
example i saw Ultimus Rex suggest an aegean map when asked what maps he
would like in his last stream)
The map is designed so that the greek and turkish main landmasses are
around 400,000 pixels in area, which combined account for around less or
equal to 80% of the map. This means players will have to cross the sea
to win, and to do so they will have to hop across the islands, which
means there will be heavy warship action, instead of having stalemates
like in most island maps where the gap between islands is too large and
players would rather bomb each other.

it's redundant
* update UI in game card
* minor footer layout changes
* update z-index to ensure content appears above ads
* removed hasUnusualThumbnailSize, instead just check the map ratio
* Use "object cover" for non-irregular maps to the entire game card is
filed
* remove white ouline from the version
* changed solo button to sky blue
* make timer "s" lowercase
I think we may need to change the openfront logo color a bit too to
match the color palette, but we can do that in a follow up.

## Description:
TL;DR: it's faster.
buildableUnits is called via PlayerView.actions from UnitDisplay (each
tick without TileRef), BuildMenu (each tick when open), MainRadialMenu
(each tick when open), PlayerPanel (each tick when open),
StructureIconsLayer (when placing a building from build bar),
NukeTrajectoryPreviewLayer (when placing nuke, on tick when tile
changes), ClientGameRunner (on click to attack/auto-boat or hotkey B or
G).
After https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/pull/3213 got merged,
the change with largest impact in
https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/pull/3193 was done in such a
different way that a new PR was needed
The idea in 3193 was to not always ask for Transport Ship from
buildableUnits. In such a way that very little extra data was send to
the worker. This had the biggest impact on performance (the idea was
months older btw, see
https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/pull/2295). Now, we do it the
other way around, by telling buildableUnits all unit types we want. Or
we want them all (undefined). The downside is more data is send in the
worker message. The upside is we have more options and can add more in
this PR.
This PR implements some of the leftovers in 3193 on top of 3213 and adds
further improvements.
(Some unrelated refactor/perf changes where moved out of this PR and
into already merged

https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/pull/3238,
https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/pull/3239)
- **GameRunner**, **WorkerMessages**: _playerActions_ and
_PlayerActionsMessage ._ Option to ask for no buildable units (null). It
now has 3 modes: get all actions and all buildings (units undefined),
get all actions and no buildings (units null), or get all actions and
specific building (units contains Unit Types).
- **GameRunner**: _playerActions_. fixes wrong assumption in PR 3213:
that only if units was undefined, we have to know canAttack.
ClientGameRunner wants to know both, in case of a click on non-bordering
land, to decide if it should auto-boat using a Transport Ship. So units
is not undefined (we only ask for Transport Ship now which has a
positive effect on performance for each click/tap) but we need canAttack
still.
Solved by removing the unit === undefined check before _canAttack_ in
_playerActions_.
- **GameRunner**, **GameView**, **WorkerClient**, **WorkerMessages**,
**Worker.worker**: added _playerBuildables_ / _buildables_ next to
existing _playerActions_ / _actions_. With above solved, there was still
no option to only get buildable units when the actions are not needed.
While **StructureIconsLayer**, **NukeTrajectoryPreviewLayer**,
**BuildMenu** and **UnitDisplay** need only that. To not make
playerActions more convoluted with more params or so, i've added a new
function _playerBuildables_ in **GameView** to only get buildable units
(**GameRunner** _playerBuildables_). _playerBuildables_ has 2 modes: get
all buildings (units undefined) or get specific buildings (units
contains Unit Types). Also update some comments that mentioned .actions
in **NukeTrajectoryPreviewLayer**.
- **ClientGameRunner**, **PlayerPanel**, **BuildMenu**, **UnitDisplay**,
**StructureIconsLayer** and **NukeTrajectoryPreviewLayer**: Since PR
3213, **StructureIconsLayer** and **NukeTrajectoryPreviewLayer** ask for
specific types of units from **GameView** _actions_ (**GameRunner**
playerActions). Now have the other files do the same. For example
**BuildMenu** asks for the new _BuildMenuTypes_ when it calls
._buildables_ and **ClientGameRunner** asks for UnitType.TransportShip
when sending a boat
- **ClientGameRunner**: canBoatAttack now accepts BuildableUnit[]
instead of PlayerActions so we can send it either actions.buildableUnits
or just buildables. Have functions call myPlayer.buildables(tileRef,
[UnitType.TransportShip]) when we only need a buildable unit and no
actions. Or myPlayer.actions(tileRef, null) when we need actions but no
buildable units. Or myPlayer.actions(tileRef, [UnitType.TransportShip])
when we need both actions, like canAttack, and a buildable unit. Then if
needed send either actions.buildableUnits or buildables to to
_canAutoBoat_ / _canBoatAttack_.
- **MainRadialMenu**: needs all player buildable unit types including
Transport Ship, so the _actions_ call argument for unit types can stay
undefined (unchanged) there.
- **MainRadialMenu**: now that **BuildMenu** uses _playerBuildables_
instead of _playerActions_, we must put data in
_this.buildMenu.playerBuildables_. And since we're not putting the
(unneeded) full _actions_ in there anymore, we can now put only the
needed and expected _actions._buildableUnits_ in it.
- **Game**, **PlayerImpl**, **StructureIconsLayer**: Typesafety and some
added perf: new type _PlayerBuildableUnitType_ (see also the below point
for how it is formed). So callers of _buildableUnits_ can never ask for
the wrong type like e.g. UnitType.Train because it doesn't return data
for that type. This type is now used in **PlayerImpl**, **BuildMenu**,
**RadialMenuElements**, **StructureDrawingUtils** and **UnitDisplay**
for that reason. And **InputHandler**, **StructureIconsLayer** and
**UIState** (little more on that in point below).
- **InputHandler**, **StructureIconsLayer**, **UIState**: In order to
make type safety work for GhostUnit.buildableUnit.type too (line ~217 of
StructureIconsLayer), changed type of interface _BuildableUnit_ to
_PlayerBuildableType_. Which is only more accurate. Same for and
this.structures and uiState.ghostStructure and with the latter,
_renderUnitItem_ in **UnitDisplay** and _setGhostStructure_ in
**InputHandler**. All Structures are of PlayerBuildableType (there are
even some in PlayerBuildables that aren't Structures, but it is much
more confined than UnitType).
- **Game**: Typesafety and some added perf: added _BuildMenus_ and
_BuildableAttacks_ in the same fashion that the existing StructureTypes
was already used (simplified it a bit too, with it renamed
_StructureTypes_ to _Structures_ and removed _isStructureType_). They
can be used with .types or .has(). _BuildableAttacks_.has() is used in
**RadialMenuElements**. _BuildableAttacks_ and existing _Structures_ now
make up _BuildMenus_. Which is used in **BuildMenu**,
**StructureIconsLayer** and **UnitDisplay**. Then _BuildMenus_ together
with UnitType.TransportShip make up the _PlayerBuildables_. Which is
used in **PlayerImpl** _buildableUnits_ (see point below). And with
_PlayerBuildableUnits_ we get the new _PlayerBuildableUnitType_ (see
above point on Game / PlayerImpl).
- **RadialMenuElements**: replace non-central ATTACK_UNIT_TYPES in
**RadialMenuElements** with centralized _BuildableAttackTypes_ too. Use
_PlayerBuildableUnitType_ for more type safety (can't by mistake add
UnitType.Train to its build menu). Make use of _BuildableAttackTypes_
instead of adding items hardcoded line by line in _getAllEnabledUnits_,
just like we already did since PR 3239 with _StructureTypes_. And use
_BuildableAttacks.types_ in the same fashion that existing
_isStructureTypes_ (now Structures.types) was already used elsewhere.
- **PlayerImpl**: _buildableUnits_
-- would do Object.values(UnitTypes) on every call. Now for better perf
directly loop over player buildable units by using _PlayerBuildables_
(see above point). In this way we also exclude MIRVWarhead, TradeShip,
Train, SamMissile and Shell so there are less unit types to loop through
by default. Since a player doesn't build those by themselves, they are
only build by Executions which use _canBuild_ directly and not
_buildableUnits_.
-- for more performance, do for loop instead of using .map and .filter,
no intermediate array needed nor callback overhead. We just loop over
the given units (which if undefined will contain _PlayerBuildables_).
Also pre-allocate the results array to get the most out of it, even if
V8 might already be very good at this.
-- cache config, railNetwork and inSpawnPhase so they can be re-used
inside the for loop.
-- cache cost inside the loop
-- it would check twice for tile!==null to decide to call
findUnitToUpgrade and canBuild. Now once.
-- eliminated double/triple checks for the same thing. It called
_findUnitToUpgrade_ (and with that _canUpgradeUnit_) and then _canBuild_
which both check if player has enough gold for the cost of the unit
type. And they both check if the unit type is disabled. Now we call
private functions _canBuildUnitType_, _canUpgradeUnitType_ to first do
checks on unit type level for early returns, and
_findExistingUnitToUpgrade_ to find existing unit without doing anything
extra. in a specific order to check everything only once. The public
functions _findUnitToUpgrade_ and _canBuild_ have an unchanged
functionality and we don't call them from _buildableUnits_ anymore.
-- would get _overlappingRailRoads_ and _computeGhostRailPaths_ when
canBuild was true. But this data is only meant for
**StructureIconsLayer** and it logically only uses it when placing a new
unit, not when upgrading one. Which is also commented on line 351 of
**StructureIconsLayer**. So, we now only get overlapping railroads and
ghost rails if we're not hovering to upgrade an existing unit.
- **PlayerImpl**: _findUnitToUpgrade_: unchanged functionality, but have
it call new private function _findExistingUnitToUpgrade_ to find
existing unit.
- **PlayerImpl**: _canBuild_: unchanged functionality, but have it call
new private function _canBuildUnitType_ to do the checks it first did
itself. And then new private function _canSpawnUnitType_ for the rest of
the checks. This way we can call _canBuildUnitType_ and
_canSpawnUnitType_ from _buildableUnits_ in a specific order to prevent
double/triple checks.
- **PlayerImpl**: _canBuildUnitType_: new private function to be shared
by _buildableUnits_, _canBuild_ and _canUpgradeUnit_ to be able do unit
type level checks in a specific order to prevent double/triple checks.
Via parameter knownCost, _buildableUnits_ can send it the cost it
already fetched so that it doesn't have to be fetched again. For caller
_canUpgradeUnit_, the isAlive() check (which was previously only done in
canBuild) is new but harmless, maybe even better to have also check
isAlive() on upgrade now that Nations are also upgrading which might
prevent some edge case bugs.
- **PlayerImpl**: _canUpgradeUnitType_: new private function to be
shared by _buildableUnits_ and _canUpgradeUnit_ to be able do unit type
level checks in a specific order to prevent double/triple checks.
- **PlayerImpl**: _canSpawnUnitType_: new private function to be shared
by _buildableUnits_ and _canBuildUnit_ to be able do unit type level
checks in a specific order to prevent double/triple checks.
- **PlayerImpl**: _findExistingUnitToUpgrade_: new private function to
be shared by _buildableUnits_ and _findUnitToUpgrade_ to be able do unit
level checks in a specific order to prevent double/triple checks.
- **PlayerImpl**: _isUnitValidToUpgrade_: new private function to be
shared by _buildableUnits_ and _canUpgradeUnit_ to be able do unit level
checks in a specific order to prevent double/triple checks.
- **PlayerImpl.test.ts**: because of the isAlive() check in which is new
for _canUpgradeUnit_ (see above at _canBuildUnitType_), the tests needed
to have the players be alive at the start, in order to pass.
- **BuildMenu**: use .find instead of .filter in canBuildOrUpgrade, a
function we already needed to change. This is faster and prevents an
allocation.
**PERFORMANCE**
As for calling ._buildables_ instead of unnecessarily getting
._actions_, there is an obvious win because there's less to send
calculate and recieve.
Also asking for only the needed buildings helps a lot (especially if
TradeShip isn't needed, see the difference in benchmark in original
#3193).
But the real-world impact is hard to measure. gave it a try in #3193 and
those results should be even better now.
Now testing only _buildableUnits_ performance in a synthetic benchmark,
we get these results. This is after other performance improvments so the
base is already better than it was in original #3193:
**BEFORE** (only buildableUnits itself)

## Description:
Introduces Passage, an island filled thin map (like Amazon River but
inverted) which is a long, thin stretch of islands that makes for some
really fun gameplay. I playtested with 3 friends a number of times and
it's great in pretty much all the modes. Naval gameplay on this map is
particularly fun since some islands in the center basically hold the
choke points on trade ships passing from one side to another, making
them hotly contested territory.

## 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:
Reduce per-step `Unit` update traffic by shipping packed motion plans
and letting the client advance plan-driven units locally.
Changes:
- Add packed motion plan records (`packedMotionPlans?: Uint32Array`) to
game updates and transfer the buffer worker -> main.
- Introduce `src/core/game/MotionPlans.ts` (schema + pack/unpack) for
grid + train motion plans.
- Extend `Game` with `recordMotionPlan(...)` and
`drainPackedMotionPlans()`, and implement buffering/packing in
`GameImpl`.
- Treat units with motion plans as “plan-driven”: suppress per-tile
`Unit` updates on `move()` and advance positions client-side.
- Emit motion plans from executions:
- `TradeShipExecution`: record/update grid motion plans and `touch()`
when changing target after capture.
- `TransportShipExecution`: record initial plan and update it when
destination changes.
- `TrainExecution`: record a train plan on init (engine + cars).
- Client: apply motion plans in `GameView` and ensure `UnitLayer`
updates sprites for motion-planned units even when no `Unit` updates
arrived.

Maps can have `teamGameSpawnAreas` in their json file now.
Spawn areas are currently active if
- a supported map is chosen (Baikal Nuke Wars or Four Islands)

## Description
Reduces CPU + GC pressure from tile update serialization.
**What changed**
- Switched `packedTileUpdates` from `BigUint64Array` (BigInt packing) to
`Uint32Array` `[tileRef, state]` pairs, updating `GameView` ingestion.
- Updated tile state to use `GameMap.tileState(tile)` and
`GameMap.updateTile(tile, state)`.
- Removed per-tile `GameUpdateType.Tile` wrapper allocations by
recording raw `(tile, state)` pairs in `GameImpl` and draining them via
`drainPackedTileUpdates()` in `GameRunner`.
**Why it’s faster**
- Avoids BigInt and pack/unpack.
- Avoids per-tile object allocations.
**Compatibility**
- Wire format change: `packedTileUpdates` is now `Uint32Array` pairs
instead of `BigUint64Array`.

- **PlayerImpl**: validStructureSpawnTiles did a filter on unit types to
get isTerroritoryBound units, on every call again. It read this from
unit info in DefaultConfig. While having it centrally in DefaultConfig
unitInfo is good for maintainability, other code uses hardcoded
StructureTypes and isisStructureType from Game.ts. Which has the same
purpose and thus contains the same unit types. StructureTypes and
isisStructureType do need manual maintainance outside of DefaultConfig.
And are more bug prone/less type safe. But, using them gives more speed
compared to getting these unit types out of DefaultConfig unitInfo
centrally with some cached function in GameImpl for example (tested with
buildableUnits and MIRVPerf.ts). So I went with StructureTypes in
validStructureSpawnTiles too.
- **PlayerExecution**: now validStructureSpawnTiles no longer needs
isTerritoryBound (see the point above), PlayerExecution is the last
place where it was used. Replaced it for isStructureType here too (since
it has the same meaning and outcome).
- **Game.ts** and **DefaultConfig** unitInfo: remove the now unused
_territoryBound_. As it was only used in validStructureSpawnTiles and
PlayerExecution and has been replaced in both (see the two points
above).

- **Game**/**GameImpl**/**GameView**: nearbyUnits required "UnitType |
UnitType[]" for tiles, but calls UnitGrid nearbyUnits which requires
"UnitType | readonly UnitType[]". Made the requirement the same for
Game/GameImpl/GameView nearbyUnits. This way, we don't have make a
shallow copy of the StructureTypes array everytime we want to send it as
an argument. Other callers than listNukeBreakAlliance in Util.ts are
unaffected.

Supersedes #3143
This PR introduces "ghost railways": when you are going to place a city
or port, previews railway connections that will be made when actually
building the structure.
Ghost railways are skipped if the structure is going to be snapped to
existing railways (as in railway snapping functionality introduced in
#3156 ).

PR 2/x in effort to break up PR
https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/pull/3220.
Removes unused code and properties.
- **Game.ts** and **DefaultConfig** unitInfo: removed
_canBuildTrainStation_ and _expirimental_ properties, as they weren't
used anywhere anymore.
- **PlayerActionHandler**: remove unused getPlayerActions, the only
potential caller MainRadialMenu already just calls myPlayer.actions via
GameView directly.
- **StructureIconsLayer**: remove unused PlayerActions

## 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:
The ghost structure calls player actions each frame, which is costly
since it's checking for all possible actions.
This add a unit list filter in actions so if there are units it only
checks for buildability of those units.
Before:

Player actions takes 20-30% of the worker
After:

/>
Player actions takes 1-3% of the worker
Both performances are relevant only when a ghost structure is selected

## Description:
- Remove alliances on death: after death, alliances would stay active
including countdown timers and (when dead player kept spectating) icons.
Now remove them when player becomes inActive.
- Moved code to private method within PlayerExecution + added comments
in NationExecution and BotExecution for more clarity as to where
removals are performed from at death
- Remove renewal request from Events Display when Alliance doesn't exist
anymore (after death or otherwise).
- Also cleanup this.alliancesCheckedAt when alliance doesn't exist
anymore. Before, old/broken alliance id's would accumulate in it during
a game.
- Removed now-redundant isAlive check in EventsDisplay. Both the
alliances array as the isAlive are updated in the same tick from
PlayerUpdates so now alliance is removed from alliances array on player
death, the other.isAlive() check is no longer needed. Of course we could
keep it in just to be very safe, so just let me know when you're
doubtful about this.
- Attack.test.ts: fix failing test. Player B dies because of the attack,
meaning the alliance now gets removed. Prevent this by gving both a
different, adjecent, starting tile. And to be more clear about what is
needed for the test to pass, add isAlive check for both of them after
the attacks.

So I thought why not make another one, this time a bit focused on
traders (tiny islands to trademaxx)
And two big islands (about 50% of the map land tiles). So its big
islands vs small islands.
