Zixer1andGitHub f6e1b8fbae feat(livestats): per-player killedBy + deathPosition + winner for live standings (#4593)
## Description:

Enriches the admin-bot live-stats snapshot
(`/api/adminbot/game/:id/stats`) with the per-player fields a semi-live
standings board needs, so it can score kills + placement live instead of
waiting for the post-game record.

Per player in `liveStats.players[]`:
- **`killedBy`** — the eliminator's clientID (null while alive /
non-client killer). Invert → live kill points.
- **`deathPosition`** — finishing place at elimination = non-bot players
still standing + 1 (frozen at "last of the then-standing"). Null while
alive → live placement.

The **full roster** is reported (dead players are retained in the client
view), plus top-level **`winner`** (the decided winner's clientID, else
null).

Deterministic / consensus-safe: `killedBy` (stamped at `recordKill`) and
`deathPosition` (stamped in `PlayerExecution`) are pure sim values, so
in-sync clients agree on the majority vote; `winner` is added
server-side in `GameServer.liveStats()` from the winner vote (like the
existing publicID/username/connected enrichment).

- [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

e05dce3437 Add crown cosmetic type (#4618)
## What

Adds **crowns** as a new cosmetic category, wired end-to-end like
flags/skins, plus a Crowns tab in the lobby cosmetics modal (#4617).

Catalog shape in cosmetics.json:

```json
"crowns": {
  "gold_crown": {
    "name": "gold_crown",
    "url": "...",
    "affiliateCode": null,
    "product": null,
    "priceHard": 5,
    "artist": "...",
    "rarity": "common"
  }
}
```

## Changes

- **Core**: `CrownSchema` + optional `crowns` record in
`CosmeticsSchema`; `crownName` in `PlayerCosmeticRefs`; resolved `crown:
{ name, url }` in `PlayerCosmetics`
- **Server**: `isCrownAllowed` in the privilege checker — requires a
`crown:*` or `crown:<name>` flare, resolves the ref to the catalog URL
- **Client**: crown selection persisted under the `crown` localStorage
key (stale/unowned selections self-clear), `crownRelationship` +
resolve/refs wiring, `"crown"` purchase type, Crowns tab in the store,
and a Crowns tab in the cosmetics modal (owned crowns + Default tile;
selecting persists and keeps the modal open)
- **i18n**: `store.crowns`, `store.no_crowns`
- Tests for schema parsing, privilege checks, and cosmetic resolution

## Not in this PR

- In-game rendering of `player.cosmetics.crown` (name pass /
leaderboards / player panel)
- API-side support (`/shop/purchase` accepting `cosmeticType: "crown"`,
granting `crown:<name>` flares, serving `crowns` in cosmetics.json)

3a5fba2e12 Add 2v2 ranked matchmaking (#4596)
## Description:

Implements 2v2 ranked matchmaking end-to-end against the matchmaking
API's 2v2 queues (API PR #419): core team pinning, the server's second
checkin loop and game creation, and the client UI.

## Core — deterministic team pinning

The matcher's assignment specifies exactly who plays with whom (`teams:
[[a,d],[b,c]]`), but team assignment previously only did clan/friend
balancing and could scramble the ELO-balanced split.

- `PlayerSchema`/`PlayerInfo` gain an optional **`teamIndex`** — a
server-stamped index into the game's team list, part of `GameStartInfo`
so it's identical on every client (same category as `clanTag`/`friends`,
which already feed deterministic team assignment).
- `assignTeams` honors pins **unconditionally** — before clan/friend
grouping and past `maxTeamSize` (the matcher's balancing is
authoritative) — and seeds the counts that balancing of any unpinned
players sees. Pinned players still participate in the friend graph, so
an unpinned friend is pulled toward a pinned player's team.
- publicIds never enter core: the game server resolves publicId →
teamIndex per client at game start.

## Server

- **One checkin long-poll per mode.** Both loops send `mode` explicitly
(the API deployed ahead of the client, so no omit-for-back-compat
needed).
- **`get2v2Config()`**: Team mode, `playerTeams: 2`, `maxPlayers: 4`,
always-compact map, donations enabled (matching public team games),
`rankedType: "2v2"` (the API's 2v2 ingestion has shipped; `RankedType`
gains `TwoVTwo`).
- **The assignment payload is now used** (it was previously discarded):
`players` → `allowedPublicIds` so only the matched accounts can take the
slots (also hardens 1v1), and `teams` → `teamIndex` stamps at game
start. A malformed assignment logs a warning and falls back to creating
the game without pins rather than stranding matched players.
- The 3-clients-per-IP cap on public games applies to matchmade games
too (an allowlist doesn't stop one person multi-tabbing multiple
accounts). It is now skipped in dev, where local testing (multi-tab, the
4-player e2e) is inherently same-IP — matching the existing dev/prod
gating of Turnstile and the duplicate-account kick.

## Client

- Ranked modal's 2v2 card is enabled; it passes the mode through
`open-matchmaking` (dispatchers without a detail — homepage button,
requeue URL — still mean 1v1).
- Matchmaking modal joins with `&mode=1v1`/`&mode=2v2`, shows a 2v2
title (`matchmaking_modal.title_2v2` in en.json), and shows the real 2v2
ELO from the new `leaderboard.twoVtwo` field in `/users/@me` (the ranked
modal's 2v2 card does too).
- WinModal shows requeue for any ranked game and carries the mode back
into the right queue (`/?requeue=2v2`).
- 2v2 ranked stats surface in the player stats tree (labeled via
`player_stats_tree.ranked_2v2`).

## Harnesses (`tests/matchmaking/`)

- Contained: the fake server captures the `mode` query param; asserts
each queue sends its mode explicitly. **10/10.**
- E2E: `MM_MODE=2v2` runs four real browser players through the real
local worker's 2v2 queue and rides the flow into the started game.
Asserts same gameId for all four, the 2v2 config, allowlist admission,
and a **deterministic 2 vs 2 in-game split read from each client's
GameView** (the software-WebGL gate is spoofed in test pages only).
**8/8.** 1v1 e2e still **6/6.**

## Verification

- `npm test`: 2,053 tests pass, including 7 new (6 `assignTeams` pinning
unit tests + a full-game pinned-split test through `setup()`).
- `npx tsc --noEmit`, ESLint clean.
- Live e2e against a local `wrangler dev` API worker: 1v1 (6/6) and 2v2
(8/8) as above.

Zixer1andGitHub 290d6922eb feat(playlist): add the Doomsday Clock to the public modifier rotation (#4589)
## Description:

Adds the anti-stall **Doomsday Clock** to the public "special" modifier
rotation, so it rolls into public games like the other spice modifiers,
with a lobby badge.

- `MapPlaylist`: new `isDoomsdayClock` ticket in `SPECIAL_MODIFIER_POOL`
(weight 4, ~20% of special games). When rolled, enables `doomsdayClock`
at a speed picked per game (slow/normal/fast/veryfast).
- `PublicGameModifiers` (type + schema): `isDoomsdayClock` flag drives
the badge.
- `getActiveModifiers` + `en.json`: a "Doomsday Clock" badge/label.
- Test covering the badge wiring.

d76691372c Feature/reuse private lobby (#4536)
**Add approved & assigned issue number here:**

Resolves #4476 

## Description:

Lets a private-lobby host reuse the same group for **back-to-back games
without
re-sharing the invite link**.

**Flow:** in a private game, the host clicks a **"New lobby"** button in
the
top-right bar (next to pause). The game's **server** creates a fresh
private
lobby (same creator, default settings) and broadcasts its id to everyone
still
connected. Non-hosts get a one-click **"Join"** banner at the top of the
screen;
the host is taken straight back to the host view for the new lobby. The
chain
can repeat indefinitely.

### Key design decision: the server creates and broadcasts the successor
lobby

The successor lobby is minted by the **finished game's server**, not the
host's
browser. The old game's server is the only thing still connected to
every player, so it has to be what announces the new
lobby; because it also *creates* that lobby, the id everyone is
redirected to is
**authoritative**. A real lobby the server just made for the
authenticated
creator, not an id a client handed it to trust and fan out. The request
is
**creator-only** and **idempotent** per game, and every successor is
wired the
same way, so the group can keep playing game after game.

### How it works

1. Host clicks "New lobby" (host + private only) → confirm dialog → the
client
   sends a `create_next_lobby` message.
2. The game server verifies the sender is the lobby creator, mints a
successor
private lobby on the same worker, stores it (idempotent), and broadcasts
a
   `new_lobby` message with the new id to all connected clients.
3. Each client reacts: the host is navigated to the new lobby's host
view
(`/…/game/<id>?host`); everyone else sees a dismissible "Host started a
new
   lobby — Join" banner that navigates to the join URL in one click.

Two new Zod wire messages in `src/core/Schemas.ts` (`create_next_lobby`,
`new_lobby`) carry the request and the broadcast.

</table>


### Design Decisions

**A. The server creates & broadcasts the successor, not the client.**
The finished game's server mints the successor and broadcasts its id.
Why this
and not "host's browser calls `POST /api/create_game`, then asks the
server to
relay the id"?
- The broadcast id is **authoritative/verified**: it's a real lobby the
server
just created for the **authenticated** lobby creator (creator identity
comes
from the JWT the game already holds), not an arbitrary id a client hands
the
  server to fan out to everyone.
- The **old game server is the only thing still connected to all the
players**,
so it must be the one to broadcast. Having it also create the lobby
keeps it
to one authoritative round-trip instead of "client creates, then client
asks
  server to trust an id it didn't make."
- The server can **authorise** (only the creator) and stay
**idempotent**.

**B. The successor starts with default settings (not a copy of the old
game).**
A deliberate scope choice. The host lands in the normal host view and
reconfigures. Copying the exact config would mean reverse-mapping every
`GameConfig` field back into the host-modal controls, which I thought
would be out of scope for this PR. Same **creator**
is preserved; same **settings** intentionally is not.

**C. It's a brand-new lobby, not the same game resurrected.**
This directly follows @evanpelle's guidance on the issue: *"A 'lobby' is
really
just a game that hasn't started yet. So making a persistent lobby isn't
really
possible. I think instead having a simple way to transfer players to a
new lobby
is probably the way to go."* A `GameServer` runs exactly one game
(start → end → archive), so rather than reworking that lifecycle to
resurrect the
old game, the server spins up a fresh successor lobby and transfers the
group
into it, which is also why the feature is framed as "reuse the group,"
not
"reuse the game object."

**D. The host returns via a `?host` URL flag + full reload ("attach
mode").**
Navigating to a normal join URL (`/game/<id>`) always lands you in the
**join**
view, which has no Start button. So the host can't just use the join
URL. The
`?host` flag routes the creator to the **host view** instead
(`Main.handleUrl` → `HostLobbyModal` in "attach" mode, which binds to
the
existing lobby id and skips creating a new one). A full reload is used
because
it cleanly tears down the finished game and mirrors the existing
win-screen
"Requeue" button's `window.location.href` pattern.

**E. Each successor can spawn its own successor (recursive factory).**
The first version only chained **one** generation. A spawned lobby had
no
factory of its own, so the *second* "New lobby" click did nothing
(button just
greyed out). Fixed by `wireSuccessorLobby` (a small dependency-injected
helper)
that wires every successor the same way. This is the whole point of the
issue
("back-to-back games"), so it has its own regression test.

**F. Private-only.**
The successor factory is installed **only** on the private `POST
/api/create_game` path in `Worker.ts`. Public games (scheduled by the
master)
and singleplayer never get a factory, so `handleCreateNextLobby` is a
no-op for
them. The client button is also gated on `isLobbyCreator &&
isPrivateLobby`.

**G. In-game button + confirm; the win-modal button was removed.**
An earlier version put the "New lobby" button on the win screen. I moved
it to
the in-game bar so the host can reuse the lobby **at any time** (without
dying
or waiting for the game to end), and added a **confirm** (matching the
adjacent
Exit button) so a stray click next to pause/exit doesn't yank everyone
into a
new lobby. The win-screen button became redundant and was removed.


### Testing

- **Unit tests:** wire-message schema round-trips
(`tests/NewLobbyMessages.test.ts`); the server handler — authorisation,
  broadcast, idempotency — against a real `GameServer`
(`tests/server/CreateNextLobby.test.ts`); and successor **chaining**
across
  multiple generations (`tests/server/SuccessorLobby.test.ts`).
- **Full suite:** `npm test` passes — **1782 tests across 154 files**.
- **Manual:** created a private lobby with multiple clients and played
consecutive games via the button; verified non-hosts get the Join
banner, the
host lands back in the host view, and the chain works for 3+ games in a
row.

Zixer1andGitHub 050c7604e8 feat(alliances): custom alliance duration lobby control (#4522)
## Description:

Replaces the "Disable alliances" toggle in the host and single-player
lobbies with a "Custom alliances" control: a toggle plus a minutes input
(0 to 15, step 1).

- 0 minutes disables alliances, same behavior as the old toggle.
- 1 to 15 sets the alliance duration in minutes.

How it works:

- Adds one game-config field, `customAllianceDuration` (minutes).
- `Config.allianceDuration()` uses it when set (and falls back to the
existing 5 minute default), and `Config.disableAlliances()` returns true
when it is 0.
- The legacy `disableAlliances` boolean is still read, so older/archived
configs keep working.
- Validation reuses the existing `parseBoundedIntegerFromInput` and
`toggle-input-card` helpers, so it behaves like the other numeric lobby
options (spawn immunity, max timer).
- The join-lobby screen shows "Alliances: {x}m", or "Alliances:
Disabled" at 0.

evanpelleandClaude Fable 5 2a82b01e30 feat: auto-start listed lobbies after 5 minutes
Hosts can't sit on a public listing: setListed(true) records listedAt,
and once listedAt + HOSTED_LOBBY_AUTO_START_MS passes, GameManager's
tick arms the normal start countdown (same path as the host's Start
button, honoring startDelay). Cancelling the countdown re-arms on the
next tick; unlisting cancels the deadline and relisting starts a fresh
one. Duplicate setListed(true) calls don't extend it.

The deadline rides to the host as autoStartAt in lobby info, rendered
as an amber countdown next to the Public/Private switch in the host
modal header (hidden once the real start countdown takes over).

5d21be826d feat: subscriber-hosted public lobby listing (#4480)
Part of #4040 (v1 scope: listing + browser + per-subscriber limit;
custom lobby name/description left for a follow-up).

## What

Subscribers can toggle their **private lobby** to be **publicly
listed**; a browsable **"Open Lobbies"** list appears in the Join Lobby
modal. Hard limit of **one listed lobby per subscriber**, enforced
cluster-wide.

## How

**Semantics** — a listed lobby stays `GameType.Private`: the host keeps
full control and starts the game manually; the toggle only controls
visibility. The `listed` flag lives on `GameServer` (not `GameConfig`),
so it cannot be smuggled in through `update_game_config` and never
touches core/sim/records.

**Distribution** — reuses the existing public-lobby pipeline end to end:
a new `"hosted"` `PublicGameType` bucket flows worker → master IPC →
`/lobbies` websocket → `PublicLobbySocket`. Master scheduling now
iterates only `SCHEDULED_PUBLIC_GAME_TYPES` (`ffa`/`team`/`special`), so
it never sets countdowns on or schedules replacements for hosted
lobbies. Lobbies delist automatically when the game starts/fills/dies
(phase change). The broadcast fingerprint now includes browser-visible
config, so host edits (map/mode) refresh the list even though the gameID
doesn't change.

**Gating** — new authenticated endpoint `POST /api/game/:id/listing`:
- creator-only (403), private + not-started only (409)
- fresh subscription check via server-side `getUserMe` using the shared
`hasActiveSubscription()` helper (`active`/`trialing`); skipped in
`GameEnv.Dev` (same precedent as Turnstile) so it's testable locally
- one-lobby-per-creator (409): a SHA-256 hash of the creator's
persistentID rides worker↔master IPC (`PublicGameInfo.creatorID`); the
master dedupes as a race backstop. The hash — and host-only config
(whitelist, name reveals) — are **stripped from every client payload**
(broadcast + primed snapshot).

**Client** — subscriber-gated "List lobby publicly" toggle in the host
modal (server rejection reverts the toggle and shows a translated
message); "Open Lobbies" rows (map, mode, player count) in the Join
Lobby modal that reuse the existing private-join flow.

**Compat** — `PublicGames.games` is now a `partialRecord`, so newer
clients tolerate servers that don't send every bucket. Note:
already-open old clients will fail to parse broadcasts containing the
new `hosted` key until refreshed (closed Zod enum) — same class of break
as previous wire-schema changes.

## Testing

- `tests/server/HostedLobbyListing.test.ts` (15 tests): listed-lobby
filtering, flag not settable via config intent, master aggregation +
creator dedupe + no scheduling of hosted, creatorID stripping (broadcast
+ primed snapshot), `creatorHasListedLobby` (broadcast + local),
fingerprint refresh on config change
- `hasActiveSubscription` cases in `ApiSchemas.test.ts`; hosted
counts-delta patch in `LobbySocket.test.ts`
- Full suite green (1723 + 141 tests), tsc/eslint/prettier clean
- **E2E in the real app** (headless Chromium, two browser contexts):
host lists lobby → appears in second browser's Join Lobby list
(creatorID absent from payload) → join succeeds (2 players in lobby) →
same creator's second lobby rejected 409 with toggle revert → unlist
removes it from a fresh browser's list. Curl negatives: missing auth
400, bad token 401, non-creator 403, missing game 404, bad body 400.

## Known follow-ups

- Custom lobby name/description in the browser (needs the censor
pipeline) — rest of #4040
- A listed lobby whose host closes the tab stays advertised indefinitely
(an empty private lobby never leaves the Lobby phase) — pre-existing
lifecycle, now more visible; consider delisting on creator disconnect

Zixer1andGitHub 78ef7b56fd feat(doomsday-clock): battle-royale style zone gamemode (#4469)
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.

### UI:

6ff202afb5 feat: nuke-explosion cosmetic effects (per-bomb-type shockwave customization) (#4485)
## Description:

Adds a new `nukeExplosion` cosmetic effect type: when a bomb detonates,
every client renders the shockwave in the firing player's equipped
effect for that bomb type.

**Cosmetics / selection**
- New `nukeExplosion` effect schema (`CosmeticSchemas.ts`) with per-bomb
selection slots — a slot is the effectType for trails and the `nukeType`
for explosions (`atom` / `hydro` / `mirvWarhead`), so players can equip
a distinct explosion per bomb type.
- Slot resolution + validation is one shared helper
(`findEffectForSlot`) used by client selection, server privilege checks
(`Privilege.ts`), and the renderer; a compile-time guard keeps the
nukeType and effectType slot namespaces disjoint.
- Effects picker gains an Atom / Hydrogen / MIRV sub-tab bar when
browsing nuke explosions; selections persist per slot in UserSettings
and are validated/dropped like other cosmetics.

**Rendering**
- `WebGLFrameBuilder` resolves each dead nuke's owner cosmetic onto the
dead-unit event; `FxShockwavePass` renders an EMP-style procedural ring
(jagged crackling front, rotating lightning arcs, inner energy fill)
from per-instance attributes. SAM interceptions and players with no
cosmetic keep the classic white ring.
- Catalog attributes have literal units:
- `size` — final ring width (diameter) in world tiles at fade-out,
absolute — independent of the bomb's blast radius
- `speed` — tiles/s the width grows; duration = size / speed, clamped to
0.1–15 s
- `thickness` (required) — ring band thickness in tiles, constant while
the ring expands
- `colors` — palette of up to 4 colors, cycled at `transitionSpeed`
steps/s (0 = static, negative = reverse; same semantics as trail
transitions)
- The shockwave quad is sized radius + thickness so the absolute-width
band isn't clipped into a box while the ring is young.

bd9ef9a317 feat: effects cosmetic category (transport-ship trail) + UI (#4418)
## What

Adds a new **`effects`** cosmetic category alongside `skins`/`flags`.
Each effect is discriminated by **`effectType`** (only
`transportShipTrail` today), whose visual config lives in
**`attributes`** (`solid` / `rainbow` / `pulse` / `gradient`). Schema
matches the production cosmetics.json shape exactly (incl. the `url`
field).

**This PR is UI + taxonomy only — the in-game WebGL trail rendering is
intentionally deferred.**

## UI

- **Store** gains an **"Effects"** tab.
- **Home page** gains an **"Effects"** button opening a picker modal.
- Both render effects **grouped by `effectType` with a sub-header per
type**, via a shared `<effects-grid>` Lit element (`mode="select"` for
the picker, `mode="purchase"` for the store). The picker shows owned
effects + a Default tile and persists per-type; the store shows
purchasable effects.

## Data flow

- Ownership via `effect:*` / `effect:<name>` flares (reuses
`cosmeticRelationship`).
- Selection is a per-`effectType` map persisted in UserSettings
(`settings.effects`).
- Server validates in `isEffectAllowed`, wired into `isAllowed`.
- `getPlayerCosmeticsRefs` / `getPlayerCosmetics` resolve effects the
same way as skins/flags (kept-on-fetch-failure, server is authority).

## Tests

- `tsc --noEmit`, ESLint, Prettier clean; full suite green.
- New: `CosmeticSchemas` parse tests (incl. parsing the **real**
`read_transport_trail` entry), `UserSettings` per-type selection, and
`Privilege` effect validation.

## Notes / follow-ups

- The effect's display label shows **"Boat Trail"** for the
`transportShipTrail` type (friendlier than the id).
- Closed-source API gap: `/shop/purchase` (`purchaseWithCurrency`) needs
to learn `"effect"` for **currency** purchase of effects; the
**dollar/product** purchase path already works. Client types were
widened accordingly.
- In-game wake rendering can be ported from #4416.

nameReveals but keyed by stable account publicId instead of per-game

181368f962 Add live game stats endpoint to the admin bot API (#4399)
## Summary

The game simulation runs **client-side**, so the server can't directly
see what's happening in a running game. This adds a way for the admin
bot to observe a live game: clients report a live stats snapshot every
~10s, the server reaches consensus on it (reusing the winner's vote
mechanism), and a new admin-bot endpoint serves it.

## How it works

1. **`LiveStatsController`** (client) emits a snapshot every **100
turns** (~10s at 100ms/turn) — only deterministic sim values, with
players sorted by clientID, so in-sync clients produce an identical
payload.
2. The snapshot is sent as a new **`live_stats`** wire message wrapping
a `LiveStats` object (`turn` + per-human-player
`tilesOwned`/`troops`/`gold`/`isAlive`/`team`).
3. **`GameServer.handleLiveStats`** tallies a per-turn **IP-weighted
majority vote** — the same consensus the winner uses — and keeps the
latest agreed snapshot.
4. **`GET /api/adminbot/game/:id/stats`** returns it, enriched with
usernames the server already holds. `liveStats` is `null` until the
first consensus.

The winner's vote tally was extracted into a small reusable
**`VoteRound`** (`src/server/VoteTally.ts`) and is now used for both
winner and live-stats consensus.

Names are deliberately **excluded** from the voted payload (they vary
per client under name anonymization, which would break exact-match
consensus); the server joins `clientID → username` instead.

## Changes

- `src/server/VoteTally.ts` *(new)* — reusable IP-weighted `VoteRound`
- `src/core/Schemas.ts` — `PlayerLiveStatsSchema`, `LiveStatsSchema`,
`ClientSendLiveStatsSchema` + unions
- `src/client/controllers/LiveStatsController.ts` *(new)* — per-100-turn
snapshot reporter
- `src/client/Transport.ts` — `SendLiveStatsEvent` + sender
- `src/client/hud/GameRenderer.ts` — register the controller
- `src/server/GameServer.ts` — refactor winner onto `VoteRound`; add
live-stats consensus + `liveStats()` accessor
- `src/server/AdminBotRoutes.ts` — `GET …/stats` endpoint

## Testing

- **Unit:** `tests/server/VoteTally.test.ts` (majority/dedup/ties),
`tests/server/LiveStats.test.ts` (consensus, disagreement, per-client
dedup, stale-turn rejection, turn advance, out-of-sync exclusion, +
endpoint 200/404/400). Full suite green (`npm test`), typecheck + lint
clean.
- **Manual e2e** against the dev server: created an admin-bot game,
joined it in a browser, force-started via `toggle_game_start_timer`, and
confirmed `GET …/stats` returned the consensus snapshot with username
enrichment and an advancing `turn`. Also verified wrong-worker → 400 and
missing-key → 401.

Zixer1andGitHub 3b84a6f569 Feat/anonymize names (#4318)
**Add approved & assigned issue number here:**

Resolves #4296

## Description:

Adds an "Anonymous players" option to private lobbies (host toggle, off
by default).

When it is on, the server sends each client anonymized usernames for
everyone except themselves. The lobby creator and admins still see real
names so they can moderate. Names are hidden on every player-facing
surface: the game start message, lobby info, /api/game/:id, and the link
preview. It is enforced server-side, so a client extension cannot read
real names off the wire. Initially added as part of our overhaul of
OpenFront masters, but this feature can very well be useful for content
creators, and other tournament hosts.

Anonymized names reuse the existing tribe word lists (no emoji), so they
pass UsernameSchema, and they are seeded per user, so a player looks
different to different users but stays consistent from the lobby into
the game.

The saved game record keeps real names (anonymization is a per-send
transform, gameStartInfo is never mutated), so replays and stats are
unaffected. Nothing changes for normal games.

New option selection:

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/31df0b0b-7757-4b2b-9bff-84310faee8d9"
/>

The host, when enabling the option, gets a little eye icon next to the
players(including himself to enable/disable the anon names for himself,
and/or other player)

By default(the names everyone will see are random and unique):

allow them to see the real names of everyone, in the lobby and in game):

67f7d09fe5 Add admin bot HTTP API for managing private games (#4388)
## What

A trusted, server-side HTTP API so a bot authenticated with a shared
secret can **create private games, change their settings, start them,
kick players, and pause/resume** — without opening a WebSocket or
joining as a player.

Two endpoints under `/api/adminbot/`, reaching the owning worker via the
existing `/wN/` nginx routing. They reuse the existing Zod schemas and
`GameServer` methods, mirroring the WebSocket intent flow rather than
inventing a new wire protocol.

| Endpoint | Purpose |
| --- | --- |
| `POST /api/adminbot/create_game` | Create a private game; the worker
mints a self-owned id and returns it (body:
`GameConfigSchema.partial()`) |
| `POST /api/adminbot/game/:id/intent` | Send a lobby-management intent
(body: base `IntentSchema`) |

## How it works

- **Auth:** `ADMIN_BOT_API_KEY` env var via the `x-admin-bot-key` header
(timing-safe compare). The whole API is **disabled — 404 — when the var
is unset**, so non-configured environments expose nothing. It's distinct
from the per-instance `ADMIN_TOKEN`, which an external bot can't know.
- **`GameServer.handleIntent`** is the unified intent dispatch for both
the WebSocket `case "intent"` path and the admin-bot HTTP API. An
`IntentActor` carries identity + authority (per-connection
lobby-creator/role checks for the WS path; admin authority for the bot).
It honors `update_game_config`, `toggle_game_start_timer`,
`kick_player`, and `toggle_pause` — **on private games only**
(`isPublic()` → 403). Gameplay intents and `mark_disconnected` are
rejected (400).
- **Private games only.** `create_game` rejects any `gameType` other
than `Private` (Public *and* Singleplayer → 400); an omitted `gameType`
defaults to `Private`.
- **The bot is never a player.** It sends no `clientID`; the server
stamps a placeholder `ADMIN_BOT_CLIENT_ID = "ADMINBOT"` (collision-proof
— contains `I`/`O`, which `generateID()` never emits). A gameplay intent
stamped with it would resolve to no player, so puppeteering is
structurally impossible on top of the explicit 400.
- **Determinism unchanged:** the only intent that reaches the sim is
`toggle_pause`, via the same `addIntent` → turn queue →
`ServerTurnMessage` path the WS uses.

## Notable details for review

- **`hostCheats` is assigned unconditionally — on purpose.**
`updateGameConfig` sets `this.gameConfig.hostCheats =
gameConfig.hostCheats` unconditionally, unlike its sibling fields (which
are guarded on `!== undefined`). The WS host clears cheats by re-sending
the *full* config with `hostCheats: undefined`, so here `undefined` must
mean "clear", not "leave unchanged". **Caveat for the admin bot**, which
is a *partial*-update client: a partial `update_game_config` that omits
`hostCheats` will clear it — the bot should send `hostCheats` explicitly
(or a full config) when it wants to keep a previously-set value.
- **Deploy wiring:** `ADMIN_BOT_API_KEY` is piped through the deploy
steps' `env:` in `deploy.yml`/`release.yml` → `deploy.sh` heredoc →
container via `update.sh`'s `--env-file`. The remaining manual step is
creating the GitHub secret itself.

## Tests

19 new tests:
- `GameServer.handleIntent` admin-bot behavior (per-intent,
private-only, post-start guards, placeholder clientID, rejected
gameplay/`mark_disconnected` intents).
- `create_game` gameType guard (Public and Singleplayer both rejected).
- `requireAdminBotKey` middleware (404 disabled / 401 missing / 401
wrong / pass).

tsc + eslint clean.

## Description:

1. **Private-lobby allowlist.** `create_game` accepts an optional
`allowedPublicIds`. It's set by whoever creates the lobby (admin-token
gated, no client UI), the game server pulls it out of the config so it's
never broadcast to clients or written to the game record, and it rejects
any joiner whose OF publicId isn't on the list before they take a slot
(stickily, so they can't retry on reconnect). Lobbies created without it
behave exactly as before.

I am not able to manually test all of it since it needs to also run the

still tested the refused flow)..
Also, we would need to place some guards and visual error feedback, but

FrederikJAandGitHub 19db66f424 Delayed lobby start (#4184)
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.

EvanandGitHub 48609fa70a Reduce lobby broadcast bandwidth via counts-only deltas (#4116)
## Description:

- The lobby WebSocket broadcast (`/lobbies`) was re-sending the full
`PublicGames` snapshot — including each lobby's `gameConfig` — to every
connected client every 500ms. Almost nothing in that payload changes
tick-to-tick; only `numClients` moves.
- `WorkerLobbyService` now tracks the sorted set of `gameID`s it last
sent as a full snapshot. On each incoming broadcast it sends a `full`
only when that set changes; otherwise it sends a `counts` delta carrying
just `{gameID → numClients}`.
- This relies on the master-side coupling at
[MasterLobbyService.ts:140-159](src/server/MasterLobbyService.ts#L140-L159):
when master finds a lobby without `startsAt`, it both sets `startsAt`
AND schedules a fresh lobby on the same tick, so the gameID change
brings the `startsAt` (and `gameConfig`) along with it.
- New WS connections are primed with the worker's cached last `full` so
late joiners don't have to wait for the next structural change.
- `LobbySocket` parses the new discriminated union (`PublicLobbyMessage
= full | counts`), keeps the last full snapshot in memory, and merges
counts into it before invoking the existing callback. `GameModeSelector`
is unchanged.
- Master → worker IPC is unchanged — still sends the full snapshot every
500ms. The optimization only applies to the worker → WS-client boundary,
which is the fan-out point.

EvanandGitHub aa3959bffe feat: territory png based skins (#4006)
## Description:

Add image-based territory skins as a new cosmetic type, rendered
alongside the existing 1-bit patterns. Skins render a single PNG
centered on each player's spawn tile — opaque pixels show the skin
(multiplied by team color in team games, raw colors in FFA), transparent
pixels and tiles outside the image bounds fall through to the regular
player palette color.

**Cosmetic plumbing**
- `SkinSchema` in `CosmeticSchemas.ts`, optional `skins` map on
`CosmeticsSchema`
- `PlayerSkin`, `PlayerCosmetics.skin`, `PlayerCosmeticRefs.skinName` in
`Schemas.ts`
- Server-side resolution: `PrivilegeCheckerImpl.isSkinAllowed` (gated by
`skin:*` / `skin:<name>` flares)
- Client persistence: stored under `PATTERN_KEY` (`pattern:` and `skin:`
share one slot — they're mutually exclusive)
- `getPlayerCosmeticsRefs` only emits a `skinName` when cosmetics are
loaded, the skin exists in the catalog, and the user has the right flare
— otherwise drops the ref and clears storage

**Renderer**
- `SkinAtlasArray` — fixed `TEXTURE_2D_ARRAY`, 1024×1024 per layer,
exact layer count allocated once at game start from the locked-in player
set. No resize, no callbacks, no retained `HTMLImageElement`. Zero GPU
cost when no players have skins (1×1 placeholder).
- `skinLayerTex` (R8UI 4096×1) — per-player `layer + 1` (`0` = no skin)
- `skinAnchorTex` (RG16UI 4096×1) — per-player spawn tile, so the PNG
center anchors at each player's spawn (re-uploads when the player
re-picks during spawn phase)
- `WebGLFrameBuilder.syncPlayers` collects unique skin URLs on first
sync and calls `view.initSkinAtlas(urls)` once; `clearCaches()` resets
so seek/replay re-initializes
- `territory.frag.glsl`: skin branch is mutually exclusive with
patterns; bounds-checks UVs against `[0, 1]` so the image is a single
stamp, not tiled; alpha-blends against the player palette color so
transparent pixels and out-of-bounds tiles render as the regular player
color

**Hover highlight (global UX change, not skin-scoped)**
- Existing hover highlight changed from "brighten toward white" to
"saturation boost." Applies to all players regardless of
skin/pattern/flat-color — looks better across the board.

**UI**
- `CosmeticButton` renders skins as a single `<img>` (object-contain)
- `TerritoryPatternsModal` merges patterns + skins into one grid; single
"default" tile clears both
- Selecting a pattern clears the skin and vice versa (mutually
exclusive)
- `Store` pattern tab includes skin entries (purchasable, not-yet-owned)
- `PatternInput` lobby button previews the active skin when one is set

**Memory**
- 0 skin players → ~4 bytes (placeholder) + ~40 KB fixed per-player
tables
- 1 skin player → ~5.6 MB GPU
- 5 skin players → ~28 MB GPU
- 10 skin players → ~56 MB GPU

**Tests**
- `tests/Privilege.test.ts`: 13 new cases covering `isSkinAllowed`
(wildcard, exact-match, missing flare, missing skin, forged refs) and
`isAllowed` integration (allowed/forbidden paths, short-circuit when
invalid skin is paired with valid other cosmetics)

- 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)

Ivan BatsulinandGitHub 29a1e8dfda feat: multi-warship selection with Shift+drag box (#3677)
Resolves #3666

## Description:

Adds RTS-style box selection for warships. Hold Shift and drag (desktop)
or long-press and drag (touch/mobile) to draw a selection rectangle —
all player-owned warships inside get selected at once. A subsequent
click/tap on water sends them all to that location.

- `SelectionBoxLayer` — pixel-dashed rectangle in world-space, player
territory color; shared between desktop and touch
- `UILayer` — same pulsing selection outline on each box-selected
warship; clears correctly when switching between single/multi selection
- `UnitLayer` — finds warships in screen rect, filters inactive ships
before sending; touch support included
- `InputHandler` — Shift+drag and touch long-press+drag both emit
selection box events; cursor becomes crosshair on Shift; discards active
ghost structure on Shift press; configurable via `shiftKey` keybind
- `Transport` — single atomic `move_multiple_warships` intent (no split
on socket drop)
- `Schemas` + `ExecutionManager` + `MoveMultipleWarshipsExecution` —
server fans out atomic intent into individual `MoveWarshipExecution` per
ship
- `DynamicUILayer` — `MoveIndicatorUI` chevron animation on target tile
for both single and multi move
- `UnitDisplay` — warship tooltip Shift hint via `translateText`
- `HelpModal` — new hotkey row: Shift + drag → select multiple warships

FloPinguinandGitHub 9821e8e041 Add host cheats for streamers (Specifically Enzo) (#3671)
## 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)

FloPinguinandGitHub 7f7cbba12f Water-Nukes 💧 (#3604)
## 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)

### Media

50bd075b1c Fix deselected host lobby settings persisting for joiners 🐛 (#3607)
## 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..

FloPinguinandGitHub cf0cf14a1f Add new public game modifiers 🙂 (#3500)
## 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

FloPinguinandGitHub 0b9d43cb46 Configurable nation count 🤖 (#3338)
## Description:

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.

<img width="710" height="121" alt="Screenshot 2026-03-03 021952"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/c8d0f0c3-db51-4303-95fa-dbc770460ec2"
/>


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

FloPinguinandGitHub 417fa0fe09 For v30: Add new modifiers (Hard nations and 25M Starting Gold) 🙂 (#3316)
## 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

EvanandGitHub 90978c0e92 bugfix: set lobby start time only when it's the next lobby in rotation (#3261)
## 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.

Resolves #3154

## Description:

#2716 introduced nuke cancellation logic on alliance acceptance via
`AllianceRequestReplyExecution`. The radial menu action, though, calls
`AllianceRequestExecution` instead, which accepts the alliance if a
request has already been made by the other player.

the `acceptAllianceRequest` method, therefore accounting for every
alliance acceptance, regardless of the specific action that brought to
that.

EvanandGitHub 294a1b4784 move lobby websockets to worker (#2974)
## 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

FloPinguinandGitHub 7942990037 Crowded modifier 😄 (#3023)
## Description:

To increase variety a bit more I present: The "crowded" public game
modifier :)
It basically simulates a crazy youtuber lobby. Cramp a lot of players on
a small map 😄
I think its fun, exciting and you actually need skill to manage the
chaos.
5% of public games get this modifier, but because we remove the modifier
for big maps its more like 2.5% (should be something special)

Arkadiusz Sygulskiandevanpelle f6454963b2 Pathfinding refinements (#2959)
## Description:

### Short path for multi-source HPA*

Math was not mathing, increased the bounds to 260x260, it is a bit
slower but should work better. The short path was breaking when player
owned a lot of shores. This is because the bounding box of tiles with
less than 120 distance + 10 padding could be as big as 260x260 and the
optimized array was set to 140x140. I made mistake of calculating it as
`2 * (60 + 10)` instead of `2 * (120 + 10)`.

### LoS path refinement

Previously, we ran 2 passes of LoS smoothing on the path. However, since
we are effectively tracing the same path, the line of sight is
essentially the same. This PR makes second line of sight stop on water
tiles with magnitude `n + 1` compared to first path. Practically, this
means it'll attempt LoS exactly 1 tile after previous corner. See
screenshot.

### SendBoatAttackIntentEvent

The flow of sending transport ships is currently strange. This PR makes
the flow more sane.

**Old flow**
```
- Player clicks TARGET tile, it can be deep inland
- Client asks Worker for the best START tile to TARGET tile
- Worker answers `false`, since the tile is inland
- Client sends BoatAttackIntent with START=false and TARGET tiles set
- Worker accepts BoatAttackIntent, computes DESTINATION as closest shore to TARGET
- Worker re-computes best START to DESTINATION
- Worker sends boat from START to DESTINATION
```

**New flow**
```
- Player clicks TARGET tile, it can be deep inland
- Client sends BoatAttackIntent with TARGET
- Worker accepts BoatAttackIntent, computes DESTINATION as closest shore to TARGET
- Worker computes START as the best tile to DESTINATION
- Worker sends boat from START to DESTINATION
```

FloPinguinandevanpelle 4e8454f3cc Lobby Gold Options (Starting Gold, Gold Multiplier) 💰 (#2915)
## 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)
