Removes operator-private material from the shipped tree, corrects documentation
that had drifted from the code, deletes dead code, and applies a consistent
prose style.
Private material moved out of the public tree (docs/private/, git-ignored):
- the wallet keyfile recovery runbook and its helper scripts, which together
published the mainnet wallet file path, the service account, backup snapshot
filenames, and the wallet RPC listener state. The helper duplicated the same
constants, so relocating the document alone would not have removed them.
- the stagenet parallel-candidate runbook and its fixtures.
- the dated production-state record, the internal remediation plan, and the
TODO list. None are reference documentation for an outside reader.
Redacted or genericised:
- operator home-directory paths in shipped scripts and units. The asset build
script now takes KENNEY_ASSETS_DIR instead of a hard-coded path.
- private LAN addresses in tests, env examples and deploy docs, replaced with
RFC 5737 documentation addresses.
- the default alert sender and the notification hub example.
- the Monero wallet unit now matches the Wownero one: a dedicated service
account and a config file, instead of the operator's login account with the
wallet password in argv where any local user can read it from /proc.
Ignore rules now cover every .env variant rather than the bare name, plus local
agent state. The deployment docs instruct operators to create .env.mainnet and
.env.stagenet, which the exact-name rule would have allowed to be committed.
Documentation corrected against the code: per-chain dungeon level counts, the
premium unlock rule, Tavern chat scope, backup retention, the chain-profile
fallback, the environment template location, and several sections describing
shipped work as pending.
Dead code removed: configPersistence, rpccalls, a duplicate vendored ROT.js
bundle, the unused tile-picker overlay, the unreachable legacy game-size path
and its vestigial parameter, spectator stubs that shadowed the real
SpectatorManager, and commented-out debugging. nip98 now imports the shared
nostr loader rather than duplicating it.
Prose style: em-dashes removed throughout in favour of colons, semicolons and
commas; comments restated as present-tense descriptions of the code rather than
narration of past changes.
127 suites / 1015 tests pass.
Per the menu redesign: PLAY on top, then Loadout (Character + Style/render-picker), Explore
(Watch + Tavern), Progress & account (Shop + Anim + the hud-chip toolbar). Pure reorder +
group headers — every id/handler preserved, no grid change. Bottom-console (#3) is next.
The migration that makes the pack ladder pay off IN the dungeon, not just the tavern.
The SP game now draws via RK (Tiled/ASCII/Iso/3D + unlocked packs) instead of the
legacy ROT display.
- Adapter: sceneFromGameState now consumes the CLIENT state shape (sparse {y:{x:v}}
tile maps, not just server arrays) via maxDims(). Verified + unit-tested.
- Bug fix: RK.sceneFromGameState was never actually exposed (only RK.scene.*), so
matchClient + tavern spectator were silently no-op-ing. Aliased onto RK.
- Bridge (spGameRenderer.js, RK.SPGame): mounts an RK renderer in a dedicated host
inside #game-display, toggles the legacy ROT canvases, zoom-enabled. Game._draw
GameScreen prefers it and FALLS BACK to RenderEngine on any failure, so the live
game can never blank. ROT still draws the splash/win/lose text screens.
- Picker (spRenderPicker.js): homepage mode + pack selector, gated by entitlements
(free = Tiled/Original + ASCII; ladder unlocks Iso/3D/packs), rebuilds on identity.
- index.html loads the render-kit renderers + the bridge/picker.
Bundled with the catalog ladder (migration 028): free Original bare pack, ladder
1/5/10/20/40/50. Deploying makes the free tavern bare (by design) AND the dungeon
render-kit-ed. v1 renders the whole explored level + zoom (player-centered camera is
the next polish). Suite 62/435 green; adapter smoke-verified.
- Splash legend (screenManager.js): every row now uses a uniform 2-cell icon slot at
a shared left edge and a single fixed text column, so the four icons + descriptions
line up regardless of glyph width (was: per-row span math + leading-space hacks →
ragged columns, player sprite offset).
- Character creator was already on the homepage but read like an admin control: the
button showed the DEFAULT character label "Operator". Renamed the default to
"Adventurer" (charCustomize.js), switched the icon 🧍→🎭, and gave it a clear
"Create / customize your character" tooltip so it announces itself.
The engine behind 'add more 2D tilesets / iso packs / 3D skins as products'. A
pack is a self-contained render environment for a projection (topdown/iso/3d);
because scenes are kind-based, the SAME pack renders both town and dungeon
(interchangeable), and each maps to a catalog id (monetizable, entitlement-gated).
- packRegistry.js: registerPack / packsForProjection / unlockedPacks (canUsePack)
/ activePackId (saved-if-unlocked else first unlocked) / setActivePack /
activePackAssets. Per-projection active-pack selection, persisted. In-memory
store fallback so it's testable under Node.
- assetPacks: registers the 3 built-ins (roguelike-interior topdown, iso-dungeon,
kenney-3d-characters) + activeIsoAssets()/activeThreeAssets() resolvers; RK.theme()
now defaults to the active topdown pack.
- isoRenderer + avatarVisuals (iso/3d character lookup) read the ACTIVE pack.
- packRegistry loaded before assetPacks in tavern + game.
Backward-compatible: one pack per projection resolves to today's defaults — nothing
changes visually. Adding a pack now = registerPack(...) + assets + a catalog row.
Tests: +5 (register/list, unlock filter, active/saved/fallback, refuse locked).
Suite 58 suites / 419 tests green.
Reframe the two 'Direct Payment / Credits Mode' cards as one 'Credits' model — 1 credit = 1 run, bought singly at base price or in discounted bundles. Adds the drop-in-timing note (jump in now or next block; block timing is memoryless so the expected wait is the same). Reward line is now config-driven: shows crypto multipliers only when payouts are actually enabled, otherwise the Hall-of-Champions framing — fixes the help advertising 2x/3x payouts on a PAYOUTS_ENABLED=false (prestige) deployment. Header renamed to 'Credits & Entry'.
Four pre-launch additions to make the game feel alive and shareable:
- Live win feed: server broadcasts 'win_feed' on every escape; client shows a
transient toast ('X escaped with the bag') so the room feels active.
- Public stats: GET /api/stats (10s-cached) returns games + escapes in the last
24h and total paid out; a status-area strip polls it for social proof.
- Share-a-win: game-over screen gets 'Share to X' + 'Copy link' buttons pointing
at the /verify page, which now renders OpenGraph/Twitter-card meta (brand OG
image per instance) so shared links unfurl with a preview.
- Land-on-action: a dismissible 'N games live now — watch' CTA appears on connect
when games are in progress, opening the existing spectator panel. Non-intrusive:
hidden while playing/spectating and never hijacks the canvas.
On phones the primary buttons now read START / WATCH / SHOP (short labels via
spans toggled by media query) with tighter padding so they fit a single row.
The on-screen D-pad is smaller (44px) and more transparent so it covers less
of the chat/game underneath.
The layout was already partly responsive (max-width:100vw, min(480px,90vw)
modals, canvas max-width:100%, and the renderer centres a fixed viewport on the
player) but had no viewport meta, so none of it engaged on phones.
- Add the viewport (+charset) meta — unlocks the existing responsive rules.
- Mobile media query (<=820px): stack the 3-column grid into one column
(header/status/game/chat/input/footer), shrink fonts, and cap the fixed-width
play/history/leaderboard modals to 94vw so they fit instead of overflowing.
- On-screen D-pad + swipe-to-move (new touchControls.js), both emitting the
same player_move {direction} event the keyboard uses — no game-logic change.
Shown on small screens or any touch device (body.touch).
- Remove the leftover "GAME AREA" debug overlay.
- Footer title and favicon now track the currency: "Monero Roguelike" + the
Monero logo favicon on the XMR instance, "Wownero Roguelike" + the existing
favicon on WOW (driven by UI.updateGameTitle).
- "Choose How to Play" modal: a header explains that paying (credits/entry)
puts high scores in the Hall of Champions while free play uses the Pleb
leaderboard, and each option now says which board it feeds — on both the
no-payout (mainnet) and payout (stagenet) variants.
The client trusted the server to pre-escape chat content and rendered
user-supplied fields via .html()/innerHTML — one server regression away from
stored XSS, and the admin panel injected user-controlled payout addresses
into its authenticated DOM.
- Add a single shared escapeHtml helper (escapes all five HTML-significant
chars including both quotes); leaderboard now delegates to it.
- Escape chat username + message in onChatBroadcast/onChatHistory.
- Escape user-controlled fields in the admin panel (payout address, socket
id, player name, status) and make its local escapeHtml quote-safe so values
in title="..." can't break out.
- Add CSP plus X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options and Referrer-Policy
headers via middleware. connect-src 'self' keeps Socket.IO working;
removing 'unsafe-inline' (nonces) is tracked as a later cleanup.
Full suite: 13 suites / 119 tests.
The anonymous session token is a bearer credential that was sent in the
Socket.IO handshake query string, where it leaks into proxy/access/referer
logs and is easily observed. Anyone holding it becomes that user (credits,
payout address, pending payments).
- Client now sends the token in the handshake `auth` payload instead of the
query string. Server reads `auth` first and falls back to the query string
for backward compatibility during rollout.
- The token is rotated on every successful resume, so a leaked/observed
token is invalidated the next time the legitimate owner reconnects. The
client already persists the token returned in `session_resumed`.
Adds a security test asserting resume returns a new token and the old token
no longer resumes. Full suite: 12 suites / 116 tests.
Payout retry system:
- Add migration 007 with retry_count, last_error, last_retry_at columns
- Payouts now retry up to PAYOUT_MAX_RETRIES times before permanent failure
- Each failure logs the attempt number and error message
- Console shows ⚠️ for retryable failures, 💀 for permanent failures
- Added SQL examples in .env.example for querying/resetting failed payouts
HOSTED_BY feature:
- Add HOSTED_BY and HOSTED_BY_NAME env vars
- /api/game-modes endpoint returns hostedBy info
- Footer displays 'Hosted by: <link>' when configured
Also improved .env.example:
- Better documentation for credit packages with reasonable defaults
- Clearer explanation of retry behavior
