## Installation & Setup

### Prerequisites
- Node.js 16+ with npm
- PostgreSQL 12+ database
- Wallet-RPC service access (optional, will fallback to FREE mode)

### Installation Steps

1. **Clone the repository**:
   ```bash
   git clone [repository-url]
   cd wowngeon/src
   ```

2. **Install dependencies**:
   ```bash
   npm install
   ```

3. **Environment Configuration**:
   ```bash
   cp .env.example .env
   # Edit .env with your database and Wallet-RPC credentials
   ```

4. **Database Setup**:
   ```bash
   # Create PostgreSQL database
   createdb wowngeon
   
   # Database migrations will run automatically on first start
   ```

5. **Start the server**:
   ```bash
   node index.js
   ```

6. **Access the game**:
   - Navigate to `http://localhost:3000`
   - The server will gracefully fallback to FREE mode if payment systems are unavailable

## Environment Configuration

Key environment variables in `.env`:

```bash
# Game Mode Configuration
DEFAULT_GAME_MODE=FREE
PAID_SINGLE_PRICE=0.005
PAID_CREDITS_PRICE=0.05

# Database Configuration  
DATABASE_URL=postgresql://username:password@localhost:5432/wowngeon

# Wallet RPC Configuration
PRIMARY_WALLET_ENDPOINT=http://127.0.0.1:34570
WALLET_RPC_USER=your_rpc_user
WALLET_RPC_PASSWORD=your_rpc_password

# Crypto RPC Configuration
PRIMARY_RPC_URL=http://localhost:18081
FALLBACK_RPC_URL=http://backup-node:18081
```

## Payment Flow

### PAID_SINGLE Mode
1. User requests to play paid game
2. System generates Wallet-RPC payment request  
3. User completes payment (0.005 XMR default)
4. Game starts after payment confirmation
5. Automatic 2x or 3x payout on successful escape

### PAID_CREDITS Mode  
1. User purchases 10-game credit package (0.05 XMR default)
2. Credits added to user account after payment
3. Each game consumes one credit
4. No individual payouts (credits are the value)

### Address Detection Workflow
1. User pastes XMR/WOW address in chat
2. System detects address via regex pattern matching
3. Security warning displayed about clipboard viruses
4. User confirms address in two-step process
5. Address saved for automatic payouts

## Game Controls & Features

- **WASD** or **Arrow Keys**: Move player through dungeon
- **Enter**: Enter dungeon when block timing allows
- **Chat**: Commands and communication (with address detection)
- **Real-time Multiplayer**: See other players and chat in real-time

```

### **📊 Health Monitoring**
The system provides comprehensive health endpoints:
```bash
# Get system statistics
GET /api/health/stats
{
  "activeGames": 5,
  "rateLimiter": { "totalKeys": 12, "userKeys": 8, "ipKeys": 4 },
  "memoryManager": { "totalCleanups": 145, "itemsCleaned": 1205 },
  "connections": { "clientSocketMappings": 23 },
  "chat": { "chatTimestamps": 15, "awaitingAddress": 2 },
  "games": { "totalActive": 5, "byType": {...}, "byState": {...} },
  "queue": { "length": 3 }
}
```

### Security Considerations

- **Business Logic**: Payment processing events logged for audit trails
- Database health checks with automatic failover
- Wallet-RPC webhook validation and processing
- Graceful degradation logs when payment systems unavailable
- **Component-level Statistics**: Each module provides detailed operational metrics

### **⚡ Scalability Features**
