scamiv c911bfb2d8 Packed unit updates / MotionPlans (#3292)
## 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.

- [ ] I process any text displayed to the user through translateText()
and I've added it to the en.json file

FloPinguin 339ace0bd6 v30 nuke wars preparation: Disable boats & Team spawn zones (#3263)
## Description:

Preparation for nuke wars, for v30.
Next PR will be adding the nuke wars modifier for public games, but
Wonders https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/pull/3224 needs to be
merged first to avoid merge conflicts.

### 1. Disable boats setting

It's possible to disable `UnitType.TransportShip` now. Because they are
not needed in nuke wars and can even be annoying.

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/661bc10d-b204-4b4f-b876-ee7c9b92de8c"
/>

### 2. Team spawn zones for random spawn

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)
- a supported team size is chosen (2 teams on Baikal Nuke Wars or 2/4
teams on Four Islands)
- random spawn is enabled

scamiv ea2a76609f perf(core): speed up packedTileUpdates (Uint32 pairs, no tile wrappers) (#3255)
## 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`.

VariableVince 8b66c8bd53 Perf/refactor: use StructureTypes, remove territoryBound (#3238)
## Description:

PR 6/x in effort to break up PR
https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/pull/3220. Follows on already
merged https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/pull/3237.

Please see if these can be merged for v30.

- **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).

VariableVince 4f08e57304 Small refactor: nearbyUnits readonly UnitType[] (#3236)
## Description:

PR 4/x in effort to break up PR
https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/pull/3220. Follows on already
merged https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/pull/3235.

Please see if these can be merged for v30.

- **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.
- **Util.ts**: listNukeBreakAlliance needs no shallow copy of
StructureTypes anymore as argument for NearbyUnits

Mattia Migliorini ba2a947061 Feat: Display ghost railways when building cities and ports (#3202)
## Description:

Based on [this suggestion on
Discord](https://discord.com/channels/1284581928254701718/1447110257196138577)
and feedback gathered in [this
thread](https://discord.com/channels/1359946986937258015/1469598906173227184).

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 ).

FloPinguin 86e51ab790 Fix nation spawnkilling 🔧 (#3222)
## 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)

VariableVince 07e13b3479 Fix: remove alliances on death (#3168)
## 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.

DevelopingTom c6c793f6b3 Highlight hovering railroad (#3156)
## Description:


![rail_snap](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1dc66dc8-5df8-4826-8a8e-521d72a1f8aa)

The `RailroadLayer` simply displays tiles as instructed by the core
worker. While it's practical for the layer to only care about the tiles,
it also means it has no understanding of railroads as entities (their
paths, connections, or identities).

It also means that the core worker is responsible for rendering tasks
such as tile orientation and construction animation, which is not
expected.

To support ID-based events and better separation of concerns, the
rendering layer needs to be aware of complete railroads. With this
change, the core worker can send the tiles once and subsequently
reference railroads only by ID for all other events.

#### Changes:
- `RailroadLayer` now stores full railroad data instead of only
individual tiles
- `RailroadLayer` is responsible for animating newly built railroads
- Add a new `RailroadSnapUpdate` sent when a new structure is built over
an existing railroad. This event is used by `RailroadLayer` to keep
railroad ID in sync.

- When hovering over a railroad, the render worker is querying the core
worker about overlapping railroads.
Alternatively, RailroadLayer could compute overlaps itself now that it
has full railroad knowledge, but this logic would need to be duplicated
and kept in sync across workers. Keeping a single source of truth in the
core worker is preferred.


#### Edgecases:
- When a structure snaps over a railroad, the original railroad is split
into two new railroads. If the construction animation is still in
progress, instead of resuming the animation at the correct point on the
new railroads, all remaining tiles are rendered immediately
- Previously, `RailroadUpdate` handled both construction and
destruction. This no longer works with `RailroadSnapUpdate`, as event
ordering is now pretty important and IDs may be lost before they are
consumed.
To address this, RailroadUpdate is split in two:
`RailroadConstructionUpdate` and `RailroadDestructionUpdate`.

FloPinguin 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)

FloPinguin f7d3c2e0bc Nations donate troops now 💀 (In team games) (#2984)
## Description:

For v29, balances the HvN winrate.

In team games, nations now donate troops to their weakest team members
(if they have no attack options available).
How often they donate depends on the difficulty.

This PR also has some other little fixes:
- For HvN games, always return true in `shouldAttack()` (make nations a
bit more aggressive).
- Early exit in `attackWithRandomBoat()` for performance
- Early exit in `findNearestIslandEnemy()` for performance AND to make
sure nations which are encircled by friends don't run into this method
(=> no donation happening!)

FloPinguin fb910cbff5 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)

Arkadiusz Sygulski 0e3ced3bfa Pathfinding Refactor pt. 2 (#2866)
## Playtest

https://pf-pt-2.openfront.dev/

## Pathfinding Refactor pt. 2

<img width="1536" height="1024" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/9477958e-54b7-4c83-b317-ba789e809e9e"
/>


This is a follow-up to a previous PR introducing pathfinding changes.
This time, it introduces a complete refactor of `pathfinding` directory
and breakdown into composable pieces.

### Unified PathFinder interface

`PathFinder<T>` and `SteppingPathFinder<T>` are introduced to unify
**all** pathfinding across the application. First one exposes complete
path, while stepping variant allows the callee to iterate over the path
by calling `.next`. All pathfinders share this one common interface,
which makes them easy to use in any scenario -
`PathFinding.Water(game).search(from, to)`.

`SteppingPathFinder<T>` extends `PathFinder<T>` with an ability to
iterate over the path. It handles caching, storing current index and
invalidation. This allows the units to not care about the inner workings
of the pathfinder and just call `pf.next(current, target)` and receive
instructions on what to do next.

### Common entry point

All pathfinders are now exposed from common `PathFinding` entrypoint:

- `PathFinding.Water`
- `PathFinding.Rail`
- `PathFinding.Stations`
- `PathFinding.Rail`

Additional entry point is introduced for pathfinders which need to work
both in the worker, but also on the frontend, which lacks `Game`
interface. Currently only `UniversalPathFinding.Parabola` is available.

### Spatial Query

New module has been introduced close to `pathfinding` - `SpatialQuery`.
It aims to resolve any questions game may have about finding tiles
meeting criteria. Currently `SpatialQuery.closestShore(player, target)`
and `SpatialQuery.closestShoreByWater(player, target)` are available -
they help answering questions about naval invasion: "What is the best
landing location from user's click?" and "Which our tile should be used
to launch the transport ship?". Under the hood they use very similar
mechanics to pathfinding, so it felt right to put them close by.

### Modular architecture

Pathfinders now support transformers: `MiniMapTransformer`,
`ShoreCoercingTransformer`, `ComponentCheckTransformer`,
`SmoothingTransformer`. Transformers functions like a middleware in the
pathfinding chain. They wrap around the pathfinder and provide
additional functionality. This allows the pathfinder to focus on
actually finding the path instead of doing unrelated things.

Example chain for simple (A*) water pathfinding:
```ts
static WaterSimple(game: Game): SteppingPathFinder<TileRef> {
  const miniMap = game.miniMap();
  const pf = new AStarWater(miniMap);

  return PathFinderBuilder.create(pf)
    .wrap((pf) => new ShoreCoercingTransformer(pf, miniMap))
    .wrap((pf) => new MiniMapTransformer(pf, game.map(), miniMap))
    .buildWithStepper(tileStepperConfig(game));
}
```

The Pathfinder - here `AStarWater` - does not care about the conversion
between minimap and main map tiles. It also does not care if the source
or destination is a land tile. The transformers take care of that. The
pathfinder gets a set of valid coordinates and produces the path -
that's it.

Modular approach makes working on a particular set of utilities much
easier - for example map upscaling is handled consistently across all
pathfinders. Additionally, the pathfinders are not tied to the
particular map resolution used. Pass them a different map and they will
work the same.

### Algorithms

Algorithms used are neatly organized inside
`src/core/pathfinding/algorithms`. They are prefixed with the algorithm
name and suffixed with the use case. File without suffix exposes generic
version ready to traverse any graph with adapters. Specialized versions
either use an adapter or inline logic when performance is critical -
using adapters leads to 20-30% performance loss.

The directory includes `A*` and `BFS` but also other useful utils, such
as `AbstractGraph` used to generate... an abstract graph on top of the
tile map and `ConnectedComponents` helping to identify whether two tiles
are connected by a path without actually computing the path.

### Playground

The playground have been updated with new algorithms, including tweaked
very greedy `A*`.

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1f833651-0024-4299-bf86-882f5368358c"
/>

### Tests

Yeah, there are some, a little too many if I say so myself. But there
are no useless tests. I had to ensure refactored code works somehow
reliably. This PR comes with trust me bro guarantee, but I would
appreciate someone confirming **naval invasions, nukes (esp. MIRV) and
warships**.

DevelopingTom 971e7f4a45 Move UI elements from the FX layer to a new UI layer (#2827)
## Description:

Some FX animations were previously used as UI elements (e.g. nuke area,
naval invasion target, gold text).
This PR moves those animations to a dedicated UI layer.

Those UI elements handle correctly the current zoom level and remain
sharply rendered at all zoom levels.

The new UI layer can be disabled using the same setting that disables
the FX layer.

Performance-wise, this layer is equivalent to the FX layer, as it reuses
the same animations.

### Naval target
Don't scale with the zoom level, but has a minimum zoom level so the
targeted tile can still be easily highlighted by zooming


![ui_naval_invasion](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/43c36c80-ffba-4443-bd53-05617c793fc8)

### Nukes
Has to scale because the size is set, but the border radius is not so
the area is more visible from afar.


![ui_nukes](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/7ca0685c-0432-4b72-8c6d-48a814a02326)


### Popup text
Scale with zoom level, and stop showing when zoomed-out:

Arkadiusz Sygulski b090f2f624 HPA* Pathfinding (#2815)
## Pathfinding with HPA*

Hi! The primary objective of this PR is to replace per-tile A* with
hierarchical pathfinding - HPA*. In practice, this means we create an
abstract graph on top of the actual map with far fewer points and use it
to decide on general path structure. Only then we go back to tile-level
and build path between selected waypoints. This speeds up long distance
pathfinding by over 1000x in some cases. To make the review easier, it
comes with a benchmark and visual playground.

## PREPROCESSING

H part of HPA* means "hierarchical" and requires preprocessing.

This PR includes pre-processing as part inside `new Game()` constructor.
It takes about 135ms for `giantworldmap` on my machine, which increases
the effective initialization from ~95ms to ~230ms. This time could be
reduced in different ways, which are **out of scope** for this PR.

After confirming the initialization time is bearable on low-end devices,
I argue merging this PR as-is is acceptable tradeoff. It creates small
lag at the beginning of a round but pays for itself in the first minute
of the match.

## Nerdy details

**Architecture**
- HPA*-style hierarchical pathfinding
- 32×32 sectors on minimap with gateway nodes on borders
- Gateway graph built via BFS during preprocessing
- Water component optimization skips unreachable gateway pairs
- A* on gateway graph → local A* within sectors → Bresenham path
smoothing
- Minimap upscaling identical to currently used in MiniAStar

**Key Optimizations**
- Typed arrays instead of high-level primitives
- Stamp-based visited tracking (no need to recreate buffers, O(1)
clearing)
- Optional - enabled by default - caching of tile paths between gateways
- Line of sight smoothing for the final path

## Review Focus

Play with included tools, benchmark and visualization. Pathfinding
should be safe to merge as a black box - you do not need to understand
the details. Outcomes can be tested empirically in-game. Visualize (and
share!) edge cases with included playground. Confirm the 100x speedup is
real with benchmark.

If you plan to dive into the code, I suggest the following order:
- Pathfinding abstraction in `src/core/pathfinding/`
- Pathfinding tests in `tests/core/pathfinding/`
- NavMesh in `src/core/pathfinding/navmesh/` + integration with
`Game.ts`
- Benchmark in `tests/pathfinding/benchmark/`

Do not look at playground's code, it has been created with a clanker.
The design is 100% mine and I spent way too long polishing it, but I
haven't even once edited the code manually. There is probably no
abstraction whatsoever, just do not look at the code, let it play.

## Core Changes

#### Pathfinding (`src/core/pathfinding/navmesh/`)
- HPA* + refinement -> three phased pathfinding: A* over the graph ->
naive path -> refinement
- comes with A* and BFS optimized for for specific needs

#### Pre-Processing (`src/core/pathfinding/navmesh/`)
- identify water bodies to avoid pathfinding between disconnected nodes
- create high-level graph of gateways on top of tile map

#### Abstraction (`src/core/pathfinding/`)

- common `PathFinder` interface that can return full path and also act
as state machine (`.next()`)
- adapters for both new and legacy algorithm with fallback to legacy if
navigation mesh not available

#### Benchmark (`tests/pathfinding/benchmark/`)

- `npx tsx tests/pathfinding/benchmark/run.ts` - no guesswork, numbers
- `npx tsx tests/pathfinding/benchmark/run.ts --synthetic` - 1000s of
synthetic paths
- `npx tsc tests/pathfinding/benchmark/generate.ts` - generate more as
needed, test new maps
- includes ONE synthetic scenario to avoid PR bloat, generate more
locally / later

#### Playground (`tests/pathfinding/playground/`)

- `npx tsx tests/pathfinding/playground/server.ts` - visualize paths
with both new and legacy algorithm

## Benchmarks

FloPinguin ebcb654825 Added a public game modifier system 😮 For more variety (#2801)
## Description:

Added a public game modifier system. It causes that

5% of public games are played on the compact version of the map
10% of public games have "Random Spawn" activated

Percentages can easily get changed via `DefaultConfig`.
We can also easily add more modifiers.
Modifiers can stack, so in rare cases you will play on a compact map
with random spawn 😄
More variety!

### "Compact Map" modifier implementation

- With the "Compact Map" modifier the lobby max player count gets
reduced to 25% and only 25% of the regular bots and only 25% of the
regular nations will spawn (because the map has only 25% of its regular
size)
- In private lobbies and singleplayer the nation reduction happens too
(When "Compact Map" is enabled).

### Restrictions

- Duos/Trios/Quads team modes do not get Random Spawn (defeats the
purpose)
- Maps with smallest player count < 50 do not get Compact Map in team
games (not enough players after the reduction to 25%). I have calculated
all the possible max player counts.

### How it looks like

Random Spawn modifier:

<img width="528" height="183" alt="Screenshot 2026-01-06 194959"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/2f729da9-80c3-4548-8205-71129da2a76a"
/>

Very rare case: Two modifiers at the same time and only 10 max players
have been chosen from `[GameMapType.FaroeIslands]: [20, 15, 10]`.
Because of the 75% reduction in player count only 3 players are allowed
(3 is the minimum). I think its funny that you can play a 1v1v1 in rare
occasions 😄

<img width="526" height="184" alt="Screenshot 2026-01-06 194938"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/834326eb-df03-41b7-b1db-1efa3f1013b5"
/>

### Funny side-effect

Team games with random spawn. That will be interesting. No more "Who is
better in donating troops to the frontline". Instead you have to heavily
coordinate with your teammates.

FloPinguin 387190b916 New map! "Amazon River" 🏞️ (#2798)
## Description:

We didn't have a river map and we didn't have a map with a crazy size.
So I made a "Amazon River" map with a crazy size.
280 x 5536!
21 nations based on real locations.
Should be interesting gameplay because you don't have many attack
options, your only escape is the river.
The land tiles size is similar to the achiran and iceland map.

<img width="2442" height="147" alt="Screenshot 2026-01-06 150831"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/91c4142d-c1e3-4aee-ac49-529b8d9f60c4"
/>

<img width="2324" height="139" alt="Screenshot 2026-01-06 150957"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/5e049ae5-f32a-495f-afde-9e20257b3676"
/>

Because the map is so wide, it looked really ugly stretched in the
thumbnails. So I added some CSS which removes the thumbnail stretching
of the Amazon River map. We can also use this logic for other thumbnails
which shouldn't get stretched.

In `Maps.ts`, `PublicLobby.ts` and `GameInfoModal.ts`.

FloPinguin ecc174d248 New map! "Didier" 🧸 (#2794)
## Description:

Didier map for the big french youtuber Fuze which already published
several OpenFront videos.
I took the real france, cut away the bordering countries and made it
look like Didier 😄
Gave it eyes, hands and feet.
Made sure we have some rivers, also put Corsica in the right bottom
corner!
It's quite large. Similar to the europe map. Has 42 nations (38 french
cities and 4 funny custom nations for the youtuber).
Made with [TsProphets map
generator](https://github.com/TsProphet94/OpenFrontMapGenerator), QGIS
and GIMP.
For public games I put a rare map frequenzy of 2 because most people
probably don't know Fuze.

@ibnhalwa from discord gave some insider knowledge about Fuze (He's
french, I'm not).

DevelopingTom af0b8a8d50 Configurable immunity timer (#2763)
## Description:

Resolve discussions about stalled PR
https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO/pull/2460

<img width="724" height="348" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/c2c9fa79-cace-431a-9ca4-b3656612fa9d"
/>

Changes:
- Added a `Player::canAttackPlayer(other)` function to determine whether
a player can be attacked.
- This function is now used in most places where a fight can occur:
    - AttackExecution (land attacks)
    - Naval invasion
    - Warship fight
- Nukes can't be thrown during the truce
- Immunity only affect human players. Nations and bot will fight as
usual, and can be fought against.
- The immunity timer uses minutes in the modal window.

UI:

- The immunity phase is displayed with a timer bar at the top. This is
from the original PR, to be discussed if it's not deemed visible enough:

Arkadiusz Sygulski ab5b044362 Fix train was destroyed message spam (#2774)
## Description:

Trains are made of a primary unit (`TrainExecution.train`) followed by 6
cars (`TrainExecution.cars`). Currently when any of the units is
destroyed, a message "Your Train was destroyed" is shown. In worst case
scenario, when all cars are blasted by a nuke, 7 messages are displayed
to the user, but the train continues.

Since the actual logic is unaffected as long as the primary unit stays
alive, displaying messages is confusing. This PR fixes it. The message
is only displayed when the primary unit is destroyed. The following cars
are only there for fancy visuals.



## Screencast

##### Current - multiple messages for single train


https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/3df04c71-d899-4f68-af83-36c9d0ffa730

First nuke was a test.
Second nuke destroyed the entire train, prompting 7 messages.
Third nuke destroyed one full train and then some. Prompting many too
many messages.

##### Fixed - one message, only if train was fully destroyed


https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1f3840a7-6c62-487d-af3a-82de39dad9e8

First train was only partially destroyed, no message was shown, delivery
mission completed A+.
Following 2 trains had the front engine destroyed and therefore were
promptly decommissioned.

modern-ish day conflicts would fit the theme, but man it's a great map
to play on.

FloPinguin f6412a5979 Re-Enable HumansVsNations 🎉 (#2689)
## Description:

**HumansVsNations is back!**

The original PR had an issue: only the nations listed in the map’s
`manifest.json` were being spawned, which resulted in completely
unbalanced games.

What did I change with this PR?

- The number of humans and nations is now always the same.
- If a map contains too many nations, we take a random subset.
- If a map doesn’t contain enough nations, we dynamically add additional
ones. These get random spawn locations, and their names are taken from
the new name generator `NationNames.ts`. The name generator was taken
from the closed PR #2245 (idea from @VariableVince).

These changes apply to private lobbies and singleplayer as well. In
singleplayer, you now simply play a 1-vs-1 against a nation.

For public lobbies, we use 50% of the regular team-game player count.
The remaining 50% are nations.

We are also using the Hard difficulty for HumansVsNations.
At the moment, it’s important that nations cheat a little because humans
can donate troops, whereas nations cannot, at least not yet. In the
future, we may make that work.

We might need to adjust the difficulty or do fine-tuning depending on
the humans’ win rate in production. Ideally, we want a ~50% win rate;
otherwise, the mode may become boring. Over time, humans will likely
develop strategies that nations can’t counter, in which case we’ll need
to improve the nation AI.

Here is a screenshot showing that the number of nations now matches the
number of humans in the private lobby UI:

<img width="806" height="304" alt="Screenshot 2025-12-25 004023"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/cb4ac6f6-13cc-452c-8cc5-7a500670d7f2"
/>

The `PuplicLobby` display was a bit bugged for HumansVsNations:

<img width="532" height="191" alt="Screenshot 2025-12-23 221832"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/3950bcd9-0072-4c28-b1a0-83c0a24e9b8e"
/>

So I fixed it to look like this;

## Description:

Previously, nations just spammed these two rather toxic emojis: 🤡😡

They now send fewer emojis while attacking, and the clown emoji is
reserved for special cases.

They got the ability to send emojis in much more cases:
- Human didn't donate enough for relation update
- Human did donate an ok amount
- Human did donate a lot
- Responding to emojis that they get sent from a human
- Nuke sent
- MIRV sent
- Retaliation warship sent
- Traitor tries to ally
- Threat asks for / accepts an alliance request
- Disliked human tries to ally
- Friendly human tries to ally
- They are getting attacked by very much troops
- They are getting attacked by very little troops
- Congratulating the winner
- Bragging with their crown
- Charming their allies
- Clown-Emoting traitors

YoussfeCantCode 1c52d20e83 Added pause functionality for private multiplayer games (#2657)
If this PR fixes an issue, link it below. If not, delete these two
lines.
Resolves #2491

## Description:
Adds pause/unpause functionality for private multiplayer games. Only the
lobby creator can pause the game, and all players see a pause overlay
when the game is paused.

  **Key features:**
- Lobby creator sees pause/play button in control panel (alongside
existing singleplayer/replay controls)
  - Server validates that only lobby creator can toggle pause
  - All players see "Game paused by Lobby Creator" overlay when paused
  - Game state freezes (no turn execution) while paused
  - Unpause resumes normal gameplay

  **Implementation details:**
- Server-side pause state (`isPaused`) prevents turn execution during
pause
- Each client receives `isLobbyCreator` flag in `GameStartInfo` to
show/hide pause button
- Added `TogglePauseIntent` that broadcasts to all clients via
`NoOpExecution`
  - New `PauseOverlay` component (shows in single player also)

FloPinguin e554ffb1b0 Cleanup nations (Part 3) 🧹 Remove nation strength (#2649)
## Description:

This PR removes the nation strength. Reasoning:

- It is currently unused. The backstory can be found in #2498
- It forces map-makers to do balancing work, which is probably not a
good idea
- It increases map-making work
- It increases nation balancing complexity by a lot (we need to have all
the json files in mind)
- It makes humans avoid map areas completely because there is always
that one, same, strong nation
- The map lead Nikola123 wants to "not deal with the stupid nations and
their balancing"

If the goal of nation strength was to make them feel different I would
suggest a nation personality system. Nations that love to boat, love to
ally, love to nuke, love to fullsend, etc.

FloPinguin 4d5bb7a835 Cleanup nations (Part 1) 🧹 (#2637)
## Description:

1. Using the wording `"Nation"`, `"FakeHuman"` and `"NPC"` at the same
time is confusing.
So I renamed every mention of `"FakeHuman"` and `"NPC"` in the entire
project to `"Nation"`. Just like they are called ingame.

2. `BotBehavior.ts` was originally intended for sharing the logic
between nations and bots.
But at the moment, the logic there isn't really shared and it's
basically just about attacking.
So I renamed `BotBehavior.ts` to `AiAttackBehavior.ts`. I use "Ai" to
indicate that this file is used by bots AND nations.

3. Moved `execuction/utils/AllianceBehavior.ts` to
`execuction/nation/NationAllianceBehavior.ts` to make sure everybody
understands that this file is not about alliances in general. It's just
about nations and how they handle alliances.

4. Removed `difficultyModifier` from `DefaultConfig`. It's unused and I
think we usually want to finetune the difficulty instead of using that
method.

5. Added `assertNever` in all `switch (difficulty)` default cases.
