## Description:
- Revised 55 Flags (US States and Territories) to resolve aspect ratio
scaling issues in game. Has introduced some minor visual issues with
crosses drawing past the bounds of the flag, but this is a lesser issue
than misrproportioned scaling and is only obvious in menus.
- Added 43 New flags made by N0ur
- Revised countries.json to make the new flags available for users to
select
- Revised 9 existing flags with ones made by N0ur
- New North America map (v3), which is 250,000 pixels smaller than v2,
significant additions of lakes and rivers, addressing complaints about
missing Ohio river and inaccurate Missouri river. West coast and
Central/South America now also have rivers. Updated Json to give most
bots flags.
- New South America map (v2), which has a fully realized Amazon river
system, two separate ocean exits. Southern Fjords turned up to 11.
- New Africa Map (v3), with more fleshed out river systems. size
decreased by 250,000 pixels. Great Rift lake now link up to the Congo
basin, and the rivers to their south, making most of Africa connected by
one river system with a Northern, Southern and Eastern Exit
- New Europe Map (v2), extended map bounds south, include entire North
African coast. bounds drawn in on the West, cutting off Iceland and much
ocean in favor of more detail on the continent. Rivers and lakes
implemented. Western-most edge of the Russia-Siberia massive river
network included (preview). Additional nation bots added to the map, to
fill empty areas. Coastline details significantly improved.
- Edits to the Gateway to the Atlantic json to add flags for most of the
Nation bots.
All maps were tested in game, flag selection menu item was visually
inspected for image loading issues.

## Description:
The server stores all players that have joined, and once the game starts
it sends a list of players to all clients. Players cannot join after the
game has started. Server now generated the PlayerID instead of the
client.
The is necessary for team mode, we need to know how who is playing the
game before it starts so we can properly assign teams based on clans.

This map was made by mashing up the world map and putting it in the
general shape of the super-continent
[Pangaea](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pangaea) It's not super accurate
but the continents are generally in the right places and the nations are
more or less the same as on World, placed in the general location where
they would have been. Hope this is good enough to be added into the
game; even if only among custom lobby maps!
We previously had a system where lobbyLifetime = gameCreationRate * 2
It was to always have one lobby ready.
With dynamic timer (start if enough player or timer's over) we cannot
rely on this system (which used setInterval) so we have one lobby and
check every 100ms if we need to create another lobby.
Might add 100ms+time of creating a lobby ms latency. Which is fine I
guess.
- **improve and fix dynamic lobby**
- **Revert "Change BorderTiles from Array to Set (#230)"**
I'm obviously forced to include the revert patch otherwise I can't
compile. but you should first merge PR dedicated to revert before tthis
create endpoint to load archived game. when joining game client first
checks if the game is active, if not it requests the game archive from
the server. the archive is sent to LocalServer to replay the game
locally. Every 10 ticks a hash is stored on the archive, and during
replay the LocalServer verifies this hash.
