Store defended influence in defendedStrengthTexture and sample it in territory render shader
Recompute defended strength on tick for state-updated tiles and for post-change dirty tiles, with full-map fallback when diffs are large
Pack defense posts by owner on GPU (owner offsets + posts buffer)
Remove old defended clear/update passes and epoch-based params
Replace epoch-based defended texture tracking with hard-clear approach for
improved reliability and performance. Remove complex dirty state tracking
and epoch incrementing logic in favor of direct hard clears before rebuilds.
Changes:
- Remove wasDefensePostsDirty tracking from TerritoryRenderer
- Replace numUpdates > 0 checks with hasStateUpdates boolean
- Hard-clear defended texture before restamping instead of epoch management
- Mark DefendedUpdatePass as dirty when rebuilding defended state
- Rebuild bind group in DefendedUpdatePass when missing, not just on buffer change
This eliminates potential transient mismatches where defended rendering
disappeared between rebuilds and simplifies the update pipeline.
Replaced tile sampling for terrain colors with direct extraction from the theme object, significantly improving performance. Updated shore, water, shoreline water, plains, highland, and mountain color computations to utilize theme properties, eliminating the need for tile searches. This change enhances efficiency in terrain color management while maintaining visual fidelity.
Modified the workgroup size in the state-update compute shader from 1 to 64 for improved parallel processing. Adjusted the dispatch logic in StateUpdatePass to calculate the correct number of workgroups based on the new size, enhancing performance during state updates. Removed unnecessary terrain parameter upload in TerritoryRenderer to streamline resource management.
Updated the terrain recomputation logic to trigger asynchronously, improving performance by allowing rendering to continue without blocking. This change ensures that the terrain will be ready for the next frame, which may result in displaying stale terrain for one frame but enhances overall rendering efficiency.
Refactor the monolithic TerritoryWebGLRenderer into a modular, extensible
architecture that separates ground truth computation from rendering passes.
This change also includes related improvements to game state management and
hover information handling.
WebGPU Architecture Refactor:
- Extract all shaders to external .wgsl files (no inlined shaders)
- Separate ground truth data management (GroundTruthData) from rendering
- Create pass-based architecture with ComputePass and RenderPass interfaces
- Implement compute passes: StateUpdatePass, DefendedClearPass, DefendedUpdatePass
- Implement render pass: TerritoryRenderPass
- Add TerritoryRenderer orchestrator with dependency-based execution ordering
- Add WebGPUDevice for device initialization and management
- Add ShaderLoader utility for loading .wgsl files via Vite ?raw imports
Performance Optimizations:
- Dependency order computed once at init (topological sort)
- Early exit checks at orchestrator and pass levels
- Bind groups rebuilt when textures/buffers are recreated
- Zero per-frame allocations (reuse command encoders and staging buffers)
Architecture Benefits:
- Easy to extend with new compute/render passes (borders, temporal smoothing, etc.)
- Clear separation between tick-based compute and frame-based rendering
- All shaders in external files for better maintainability
- Ground truth data computed once and reused by all passes
Related Changes:
- Add defended tile state support to GameMap (isDefended/setDefended)
- Expose tileStateView() for direct GPU state access
- Extract hover info logic to HoverInfo utility
- Remove TerrainLayer (terrain now rendered by WebGPU territory pass)
- Update GameRenderer to use transparent overlay canvas
- Add viewOffset() method to TransformHandler
Files:
- Deleted: TerritoryWebGLRenderer.ts (1217 lines), TerrainLayer.ts (77 lines)
- Added: 17 new files in webgpu/ directory structure
- Updated: TerritoryLayer.ts, GameRenderer.ts, PlayerInfoOverlay.ts,
GameMap.ts, GameView.ts, GameImpl.ts, TransformHandler.ts, vite-env.d.ts

## Description:
Five performance improvements to the map generator, measured on three
maps of increasing size. End-to-end time on `world` improved ~15×, heap
allocations ~19×.
| Map | Before | After | Speedup |
|-----|--------|-------|---------|
| bosphorusstraits (~612K tiles) | 578ms / 594MB | 45ms / 134MB | 13× /
4.4× |
| world (~2M tiles) | 2333ms / 2128MB | 150ms / 553MB | 15× / 3.8× |
| giantworldmap (~8M tiles) | 10701ms / 9300MB | 635ms / 2509MB | 17× /
3.7× |
Changes (one commit each):
- **`--workers` flag**: bounds concurrent map processing to limit peak
memory
- **Flat `[]bool` visited sets**: replaced `map[string]bool` keyed by
`fmt.Sprintf` with flat `[]bool` indexed `x*height+y` — the dominant
cost
- **`neighborCoords` with stack buffer**: eliminates per-call slice
allocation for neighbour lookups
- **`Terrain` struct 24→16 bytes**: field reorder + `uint8` type for
`TerrainType`
- **Nil buffers early**: releases image/terrain arrays as soon as
they're no longer needed
- **BFS mark-visited on push**: each tile enters the queue once instead
of up to 4×, halving queue memory
also fixes a bug (according to Claude):
Here's the bug: createMiniMap downscales by averaging/sampling 2x2
blocks, copying field values across — including Ocean=true from the
parent scale. When a single connected ocean at 1x splits into multiple
disconnected bodies at 4x (because narrow water channels disappear when
you halve resolution), those smaller fragments still carry Ocean=true
from the carryover. The 4x processWater call picks the new largest
fragment and sets it to Ocean=true, but never clears the others — so
multiple disconnected bodies end up flagged as Ocean.
This PR's fix: before the new BFS pass, zero out every Ocean flag, so
only the truly-largest body at the current scale ends up marked.
It's incidental to the perf work but it's a real semantic change — the
on-disk .bin files will differ from main on any map where ocean splits
across downscaling. The PR doesn't mention it, which is why I flagged
it.

Add a thinner hover ring for the ranked/create/join action buttons via a new --shadow-action-card-hover variable, apply the same ring to the flag and skin selectors, and split the solo button's hover scale to expand mostly vertically so it doesn't clip horizontally.
## Description:
Corrected inbalance in Luna map between top and bottom. Now both sides
have about equal land tiles.
Testing and editing was done to help boat-pathing at least look normal
along bottom half.
Additional notch cut in orbit lines to take edge off boat-pathing. Now
obstacle is almost a straight line.
Filled in center orbits to help players push easier. It was reported to
be tedious previously.
'Top Secret Military Base' nation was renamed with only vowels blacked
out for easier reading of joke name.
'Monolith' nation was renamed with a special character that displays
like the actual Monolith.

## Description:
- Inline the game worker into the main bundle (`?worker&inline`) instead
of loading it from the CDN via a same-origin Blob trampoline.
- Some users were failing to load the worker — most likely a
cross-origin / CDN edge case the trampoline didn't paper over. Inlining
serves the worker as a same-origin Blob from the main bundle, bypassing
the cross-origin `new Worker(url)` restriction entirely.
- Removes `createGameWorker()`, the trampoline script, the
`trampoline_error` message type, and the `onTrampolineError` listener in
`initialize()`. The 60s init timeout backstop stays.
- `cdnBase` is still forwarded in the `init` message — that's for
in-worker asset fetches (maps, etc.), unrelated to loading the worker
module itself.
Tradeoff: the worker bundles all of `src/core`, so the main JS download
grows by that amount on every page load (including lobby/settings pages
that never start a game). Accepted because load reliability > bundle
size here.

## Description:
Simplifies the attacking-troops overlay: removes the soldier icon and
strength bar, dropping each label down to just the troop number in cyan
(outgoing) or red (incoming) with a soft dark text-shadow halo and no
background fill so territory borders show through cleanly. Also splits
the label into outer (transitioned position) and inner (instant scale)
divs so zoom changes no longer get smeared by the 0.25s cluster-move
transition, retunes the zoom→size curve, and skips incoming labels from
bot tribes to cut clutter.

## Description
Re-enables Turnstile verification (was temporarily disabled in v31 to
diagnose intermittent `invalid-input-response` rejections) and moves the
verification call off the game servers.
Game servers no longer hold `TURNSTILE_SECRET_KEY` or hit
`challenges.cloudflare.com` directly. Instead they POST to
`${jwtIssuer}/turnstile` on the api-worker (authenticated with the
existing `apiKey`), which holds the secret and proxies to Cloudflare.
Shrinks blast radius and removes the secret from every game host + GH
Actions workflow.
Response from the api-worker is Zod-validated; null tokens short-circuit
to `rejected` locally.

## Description:
`MapLandTiles` was fetching map manifests via HTTP at
`http://localhost:3000/maps/<map>/manifest.json`. This stopped working
after PR #3494 moved all public assets from stable paths (e.g.
`/maps/...`) to content-hashed paths under `/_assets/...`. The master
server no longer serves `/maps/` -- requests fell through to the SPA
handler, returned `index.html`, failed JSON parsing, and silently fell
back to the default `1_000_000` land tile count.
With 1M tiles, `calculateMapPlayerCounts` produces `[50, 40, 25]`
instead of the real values (e.g. `[185, 140, 95]` for Alps), causing all
public lobbies to be capped at 25-50 players regardless of map.
Fixes this by reading map manifests directly from disk instead of via
HTTP:
- In production: resolves the source path through
`getRuntimeAssetManifest()` to the hashed file under `static/_assets/`,
then reads it with `fs.readFile`.
- In dev: falls back to `resources/maps/<name>/manifest.json` directly
(the Dockerfile removes `resources/maps` in production, so this branch
only runs locally).
Also adds an in-process cache so each map manifest is only read once per
server lifetime.
Verified that it works on
https://fix-map-land-tiles-asset-manifest.openfront.dev/ and locally.

- **Farming nations for cities is fixed**: Here you can see city farming
in action, vari farms Finland:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J4J0ajlnSHs&t=137s - Lots of 125k gold
cities... Now nations will build defense posts instead of cities:
- **Nations now build defense posts reactively** instead of through the
normal structure build order. When a nation is under significant land
attack (incoming/own troops >= 35%), it places a defense post near the
attack front -- skipped on Easy, capped at 1 on Medium, and scaled by
the incoming troop ratio on Hard/Impossible. Posts spread along the
front. The old `defensePostValue()` placement path is removed.
- **Nations now capture nuked territory.**
`hasLandBorderWithTerraNullius()` was incorrectly filtering out tiles
with fallout, causing the `nuked` attack strategy to never dispatch a
attack. Big bug

All of these poor designs are probably the result of the map being
resized, originally being a larger map. It probably explains why this is
the smallest map by land area (not counting Oceania)
Fixes:
- Fixed landlocked rivers and added More accurate bodies of water
- Complete remake of the nations. Nations are now far more accurately
placed districts of the region, and more evenly placed

Previously, winnerVotes was keyed only on winner, so a client could send the correct winner with spoofed allPlayersStats and have their vote count toward the majority. The key is now a SHA-256 hash of both winner and allPlayersStats together, so any stats divergence produces a distinct key that must independently reach majority.
When the winner is confirmed, the log now includes votesByKey — a summary of every distinct key, its vote count, and winner value — making stat manipulation visible in the logs.
CSS mask-image triggers a CORS fetch, which failed for the CDN-hosted medal SVG. Switched to a Vite ?raw import so the SVG is embedded as a data URI at build time — no network request, no CORS.
Also stripped the SVG of Inkscape metadata and replaced filter-based color inversion with a plain fill="white", shrinking it from 3,278 → 955 bytes (387 bytes gzipped).
