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.

OpenFrontIO Logo

OpenFront.io is an online real-time strategy game focused on territorial control and alliance building. Players compete to expand their territory, build structures, and form strategic alliances in various maps based on real-world geography.

🌟 Features

  • Real-time Strategy Gameplay: Expand your territory and engage in strategic battles
  • Alliance System: Form alliances with other players for mutual defense
  • Multiple Maps: Play across various geographical regions including Europe, Asia, Africa, and more
  • Resource Management: Balance your expansion with defensive capabilities
  • Cross-platform: Play in any modern web browser

📋 Prerequisites

  • npm (v10.9.2 or higher)
  • A modern web browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, etc.)

🚀 Installation

  1. Clone the repository

    git clone https://github.com/openfrontio/OpenFrontIO.git
    cd OpenFrontIO
    
  2. Install dependencies

    npm run inst
    

    Do NOT use npm install nor npm i but instead use our npm run inst. It runs the safer npm ci --ignore-scripts to install dependencies exactly according to the versions in package-lock.json and doesn't run scripts. This can prevent being hit by a supply chain attack.

🎮 Running the Game

Development Mode

Run both the client and server in development mode with live reloading:

npm run dev

This will:

  • Start the webpack dev server for the client
  • Launch the game server with development settings
  • Open the game in your default browser (to disable this behavior, set SKIP_BROWSER_OPEN=true in your environment)

Client Only

To run just the client with hot reloading:

npm run start:client

Server Only

To run just the server with development settings:

npm run start:server-dev

Connecting to staging or production backends

Sometimes it's useful to connect to production servers when replaying a game, testing user profiles, purchases, or login flow.

To replay a production game, make sure you're on the same commit that the game you want to replay was executed on, you can find the gitCommit value via https://api.openfront.io/game/[gameId]. Unfinished games cannot be replayed on localhost.

To connect to staging api servers:

npm run dev:staging

To connect to production api servers:

npm run dev:prod

🛠️ Development Tools

  • Format code:

    npm run format
    
  • Lint code:

    npm run lint
    
  • Lint and fix code:

    npm run lint:fix
    
  • Testing

    npm test
    

🏗️ Project Structure

  • /src/client - Frontend game client
