Fixes #5647

Summary

Introduces a "Continue Game From Here" feature directly in the Replay Viewer, allowing players to jump in and take control of any surviving nation at any point in a recorded match.

Key Capabilities

  • Play from this Time: Adds a sword/continue action button in ReplayControls (positioned immediately next to playback speed controls).
  • Player Selection & Search: Opens ContinueGameModal displaying surviving players with rendered flag icons, map control percentage, and real-time search filtering.
  • Difficulty Selection: Lets players select bot difficulty (Easy, Medium, Hard, Impossible) for converted human opponents.
  • Headless Snapshot Extraction: Uses SnapshotExtractor inside a dedicated web worker to fast-forward the simulation to the target timestamp, convert other human players into AI bots, and generate a playable FullGameSnapshot.
  • Seamless Local Singleplayer Launch: Boots directly into an active local singleplayer game from that snapshot via join-lobby (source: "singleplayer", resumeSnapshot).

Test Plan

  • Run npm run build-dev and npm run build-prod (clean build, 0 type errors).
  • Run npm run lint (0 errors, 0 warnings).
  • Run npx vitest run tests/client/replay (all tests pass).
  • Run npx vitest run tests/client/replay/SnapshotExtractor.test.ts (snapshot generation and bot conversion pass).
  • Verified offline replay testing using npm run dev:all with local game records.

…tView

The PlayerUpdate/UnitUpdate to PlayerState/PlayerStatic/UnitState
conversions lived inside PlayerView and UnitView, which pull in DOM and
settings code. They're now plain functions in view/EntityState.ts, so
the replay encoder can run them in a worker and get the same records the
live client builds. Also adds playerTypeFromEnum, and moves TRAIL_TYPES
from GameView to render/types/UnitType.ts.

GameView's merge of the packed player stats and attack troop counts, and
its embargo PlayerID to smallID translation, move there too
(applyPackedPlayerStats, applyPackedAttackTroops, embargoSmallIDs). The
attack helper can copy a patched attack instead of changing it, for a
caller that keeps earlier states.

No behaviour change.
WebGLFrameBuilder wrote a player's palette slot inline (colours, pattern
and the six effect blocks) together with the catalog lookup. That code
now lives in render/gl/utils/PlayerPalette.ts so the replay viewer can
fill the same textures the same way. PALETTE_SIZE comes from ColorUtils
instead of a second copy of 4096, and the compile-time checks on the
effect block order moved with it.

- writePlayerEffects writes all six effect blocks of a player and sets
  or clears their spiral nuke trail. WebGLFrameBuilder.syncPlayerEffects
  passes it a lookup that knows the effect editor's overrides.
- PlayerView.computeColors picks the territory and border colours with
  resolvePlayerColors (view/PlayerColors.ts), a pure function.

One behaviour change: computeColors used to fill a pattern's missing
colour palette in on the shared cosmetics object (colorPalette ??=
theme colours). After a theme change, such as turning on the colour-blind
palette, those players kept the first theme's colours. The palette is
now worked out each time and the cosmetics are left alone.
GameView moved units along motion plans (transport and trade ships,
nukes, trains) with about 230 lines of private code: the grid and train
plan maps, the train's used-tile ring buffer, and the planned unit id
cache. That now lives in view/MotionPlanResolver.ts, so the replay
encoder can resolve positions with the same code instead of a copy.

The resolver moves units through a small interface (tileOf, move, rest).
GameView's moves change its UnitViews in place and update the unit grid,
as before. motionPlans() and motionPlannedUnitIds() read from the
resolver.

No behaviour change.
Adds src/replay/codec, a binary encoding of finished games that can jump
to any tick without re-simulating from the start. It follows ldlework's
replay codec (keyframes and deltas in gzipped chunks, a field table for
entities, event lists next to the frames), rewritten against the current
core.

- Frames hold what the renderer draws: tiles, players, units, names and
  the per-tick HUD updates. FrameNormalizer builds them from
  GameUpdateViewData the same way GameView does, including the partial
  PlayerUpdate diffs and the packed player/attack channels.
- Units moved by motion plans get their position resolved every tick, so
  the reader never has to replay plans.
- Every 100 frames starts a new chunk with a keyframe. Deltas store
  counts, ids and positions as varints of small differences, which gzip
  compresses much better than fixed-width fields. An attack whose
  troop count is the only change is written as its index in the list
  before plus the change, not in full.
- Every GameUpdateType and GameUpdateViewData field has to be routed, so
  adding a new one won't compile until replays handle it.
- StreamingEncoder takes one tick at a time. takeAppend() hands out what
  it added since the last call. A game's base (the header fields that
  never change) and every append are the whole replay, so a game can be
  watched while it's still being processed.
- ReplayReader does seek/next, starting from a game's base and growing
  with appends. Decoding is synchronous. Where gunzip is async (the
  browser), a chunk is loaded first with load().
- Nuke impacts are stored split into land and water tiles, as they are
  after that tick, since a nukeable map layer only loses tiles of its
  own placement and a later water nuke can turn land into water.
- PackedEvents writes the two big event lists (nuke impacts, which
  list every tile in a blast, and dead units) as varints, for keeping a
  replay gzipped. As plain objects they were about a quarter of a
  stored replay.
- Stepping onto a keyframe lists the tiles that changed since the frame
  before, so the renderer doesn't re-upload the whole map every chunk.
  Frames also carry the fallout tile count.

There's no file layout. A replay never leaves the browser that made it,
and is stored there nearly as it is held in memory, with only the two
big event lists packed. REPLAY_VERSION covers the frame and packed
event encoding and is part of the store key.

A 26 minute, 25 player game is stored in about 24 MB, and seeks take
about 20 ms (35 ms at the 95th percentile).
processGameRecord (src/replay/processor) turns an archived game record
into a replay. It re-runs the game with the core, set up the same way a
client watching the record would be (including the server's wire
blanking, which team assignment depends on), and feeds every tick to the
encoder.

The core is only deterministic within a build, so every hash the live
clients agreed on is checked as the game runs. The first mismatch stops
processing instead of producing a replay of some other game. Hashes
only come every few turns, so frames are handed out once a later hash
has matched: whatever was handed out before a mismatch is the game that
was played.

So a game can be watched while it's still being processed, it hands
over the header fields that never change first, then the frames as
appends: the first after one chunk, then every few seconds, and the
rest after the last tick. The base and the appends are the whole
replay.
The pieces that turn a replay into frames for the game's renderer and
HUD (src/client/replay). The viewer that uses them comes in the next
commit.

- ReplayPlayback: play, pause, speed and seek. Small forward jumps play
  through frame by frame so trails and effects stay right, bigger ones
  seek. Each step loads its chunk first, and the next chunk is inflated
  ahead. It opens a stored replay, or a game that's still being
  processed from its base and first append. append() adds frames, and
  playback waits at the end for more instead of stopping. data() gives
  the whole replay, for storing it.
- ReplayFrameBuilder: builds FrameData from decoded frames using the
  renderer's existing derive helpers, trails and railroad cache. A seek
  rebuilds the rail network from its events, skipping the ticks where
  nothing happens (RailroadCache.animating), so seeking back late in a
  long game doesn't step through every tick.
- ReplayGameAdapter: exposes the replay through the parts of GameView
  the HUD reads, so the leaderboard, hover card and event feed work
  unchanged. Land and fallout counts follow the game like GameMap's, so
  territory shares stay right after nukes.
- ReplayPalette / ReplayEffects: player colours, patterns, skins and
  trail effects from the cosmetics in the game start info.
- ReplayTerrain: terrain changed by water nukes, and the land it sank.
- ReplayCamera: pan and zoom, pinch-to-zoom on touch (CameraGestures),
  and gliding to a point like the game's GoToPlayerEvent.
Watching a finished game now opens the replay viewer
(#replay-viewer=<gameID>). It can seek, and starts playing while the
game is still being processed.

- The viewer fetches the game record and runs processGameRecord in a
  worker. The first frames show up after about a second. The timeline
  covers the whole game from the start, the part that isn't processed
  yet is greyed out, and seeking into it snaps back.
- Records only replay on the build that played them, so a game from
  another build redirects to that build's versioned shell (openfrontio#4934). A
  desync before any frames shows an error and offers the old replay
  instead. One after playback started keeps what was processed
  watchable, with a banner saying how much of the game that is.
- Finished replays are cached in IndexedDB (256 MB, least recently
  watched evicted first), so watching again opens instantly. The viewer
  stores the base and appends it already holds, so the worker never
  builds or sends the whole replay. The chunks are already gzipped, and
  the nuke impacts and dead units are packed and gzipped too. They're
  kept per build and format version, and one that fails to load is
  dropped and the game processed again. Other builds' replays are
  dropped on the main site, where nothing reads them again, but kept on
  replay.<domain>, which every build's shell shares. If storage isn't
  available the game just gets processed again. Opening it gives up after 3 s, since a version
  upgrade waits for every other tab, and a tab closes it when a newer
  build wants to upgrade.
- JoinLobbyModal opens the viewer and passes along the record it already
  fetched. "Watch the old replay instead" goes back to the client-side
  replay for that game for the rest of the tab.
- Uses the game's own renderer and HUD (leaderboard, hover card, event
  feed, settings menu). Clicking a player in the leaderboard follows
  them and moves the camera there. ReplayAppearance keeps the players'
  look in sync with the graphics settings.
- Nuke damage on the map's decoration layers is replayed too: marked
  frame by frame, and rebuilt from every impact up to the frame on a
  seek, so seeking back restores the layer. MapRenderer now re-applies
  that damage when the layer images arrive late.
- The viewer replaces the menu, so a hash or history change while it's
  open (Back, an edited URL) leaves it like leaving a game: another
  replay reloads into its viewer, anything else goes home. Viewers
  never stack.

Nothing runs on the server. Processing every game up front isn't
realistic (10k+ games a day), and each build is already served through
its versioned shell, so replays are made on demand in the player's
browser. In a dev build a 26 minute, 25 player game showed its first
frames after 0.9 s and finished in about 70 s, with every hash
matching.

docs/Replays.md covers the design and how to try it locally, with the
record tools in scripts/replay.

993-1000: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Decode the resume snapshot only once on the main thread. readSnapshotHeader and restoreMapsFromSnapshot both run decodeRoot, and decodeRoot decodes the full snapshot (all tile lists and execution records). A resumed game decodes the same bytes three times on the main thread just to read tick. createClientGame already decodes the snapshot in restoreMapsFromSnapshot. Return tick from that call, store it on LobbyConfig as a plain number (for example resumeTick), and read that number at both sites below.

  • src/client/ClientGameRunner.ts#L993-L1000: set turnsSeen from lobby.resumeTick. Do not call readSnapshotHeader again.
  • src/client/LocalServer.ts#L160-L167: set turnOffset from lobbyConfig.resumeTick. Do not call readSnapshotHeader again.
♻️ Sketch

 }

+  return { startTick: readStartTick(root.game?.d), tick: root.tick };

src/client/replay/ReplayViewer.ts: 1

901-912: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Get resumeTick from the extracted snapshot, not from the viewer state.

The resume flow has two sources for the resume tick:

  • LocalServer.start() sets turnOffset from the join-lobby detail. Here that value is this.tick, the viewer's current tick.
  • createClientGame replaces lobbyConfig.resumeTick with restoreMapsFromSnapshot(...).tick, the tick stored in the snapshot. ClientGameRunner copies that value into turnsSeen.

LocalServer starts before createClientGame runs, so it keeps the viewer tick. Both values are equal only if extractSnapshot stops exactly at this.tick. That holds today, but no type or check enforces it. If the two values ever differ, ClientGameRunner rejects every turn with "got wrong turn" and the resumed game stops.

Use one producer. Return the tick from extractSnapshot (game.ticks()), pass it through ExtractSnapshotResultMessage and extractSnapshotInWorker, and send that value here.

♻️ Proposed change
-      const { snapshot, gameStartInfo } = await extractSnapshotInWorker(
+      const { snapshot, gameStartInfo, tick } = await extractSnapshotInWorker(
 ...
           resumeSnapshot: snapshot,
-          resumeTick: this.tick,
+          resumeTick: tick,

In packages/engine/src/snapshot/SnapshotExtractor.ts, add tick: number to ExtractedSnapshotResult and return tick: game.ticks(). Then add the same field to ExtractSnapshotResultMessage and to the return value of extractSnapshotInWorker.

153-161: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Remove the unused resumeTurns plumbing.

No repository code sets resumeTurns. The current continuation flow passes only resumeSnapshot and resumeTick.

If a caller supplies saved turns that represent resumeTick and also supplies resumeTick, LocalServer numbers the first new turn as resumeTick + resumeTurns.length. ClientGameRunner expects resumeTick, logs got wrong turn, and does not send that turn to the worker.

Remove resumeTurns from LobbyConfig, the Main pass-through, and the LocalServer initialization. JoinLobbyEvent has no resumeTurns field.
