Cap a player's simultaneous unfinished games per kind (vs_ai, random,
friends) with independent guest and durable-account tiers, held in a new
single-row backend.config table (-1 = unlimited) behind an in-memory cache
and editable live in the admin console (/_gm/limits). Each game is tagged
with games.game_kind on creation.
This replaces the earlier flat MaxActiveQuickGames=10 combined cap: the
per-tier/kind config is the single mechanism, enforced at the same handler
gate (ensureUnderGameLimit by kind on lobby/enqueue) plus the durable
friends cap in CreateInvitation. game.Service.AtGameLimit only resolves the
tier and counts; the limit policy stays at the request edge.
Guests are now refused friend requests, friend-code redemption,
befriend-in-game and invitation creation outright (403 guest_forbidden) --
previously only the UI hid these.
Admin: a kind column in both game lists and the config editor.
Defaults: guest 1 vs_ai / 1 random / 0 friends; durable 10 / 10 / 10.
Collapse the two per-language Telegram bots into one unified bot and
replace language-based variant gating with explicit per-user variant
preferences.
- Telegram: one bot; drop service_language and the supported_languages
set everywhere (DB, account, auth, FlatBuffers Session wire, gateway,
connector proto). The single bot renders chat and out-of-app push in
the recipient's preferred_language; remove the game-language push
routing override (notify Intent.Language / push Event.language).
- Preferences: new accounts.variant_preferences (text[], DB default
{erudit_ru}, CHECK non-empty + subset of the three variants). Gates
the New Game picker, vs-AI and the friend invitation the player
creates, enforced server-side (HTTP 400 otherwise); an invited friend
may still accept any variant. Edited on the Settings screen; variants
are Erudit-first everywhere.
- Admin: drop the per-bot language selectors (broadcast / send-to-user)
and the feedback channel_lang column/field.
- Env/CI: collapse TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN_{EN,RU}, TELEGRAM_GAME_CHANNEL_ID_{EN,RU},
VITE_TELEGRAM_LINK{,_EN,_RU} and VITE_TELEGRAM_GAME_CHANNEL_NAME_{EN,RU}
to single unsuffixed names; drop GATEWAY_DEFAULT_SUPPORTED_LANGUAGES.
- Docs updated (ARCHITECTURE, FUNCTIONAL + _ru, platform/telegram, gateway,
backend, ui, UI_DESIGN, PRERELEASE).
The migration squash is deferred to a follow-up PR.
Make a per-user block one-directional and non-destructive: the blocker stops
receiving everything from the blocked user (chat, nudge, friend requests,
invitations) and the matchmaker never pairs them, while the blocked user
notices nothing — their sends still persist by the normal rules but are never
delivered or surfaced (born-read). A block no longer deletes the friendship
(an unblock cleanly restores it) and instant-reads any unread the blocked user
had left for the blocker.
- backend: a directional blockExists guard across chat/nudge/friends/invitations
(store-but-hide for the blocked->blocker direction, refuse blocker->blocked);
the matchmaker excludes a block-related pair (both directions) from auto-match;
user_blocked/user_unblocked notifications to the blocker only (in-app only).
- ui: the opponent score card gains a block ✖️ control mirroring add-friend
(red "Block?" confirm, mutual-hide while confirming, struck name, hidden chat
composer when blocked); optimistic apply + event confirm + rollback for both.
- admin: the user card gains cross-linked blocks / blocked-by / friends lists.
- docs: FUNCTIONAL(+ru), ARCHITECTURE §10 + decision record, UI_DESIGN, PRERELEASE.
Limit a player to 10 active quick games (auto-match + AI); friend games created
by invitation are not counted. At the cap the backend refuses both new-game
entry points — quick enqueue and invitation creation — with 409
game_limit_reached, while accepting an incoming invitation stays allowed, so
friend games are capped from the other end. The lobby disables "New Game" and
shows a low-emphasis notice, driven by a new at_game_limit flag on games.list
(no per-event payload: a turn change does not move the count, and the lobby
already re-fetches games.list on entry and every game event).
- game.MaxActiveQuickGames + Store/Service.CountActiveQuickGames (active/open
seats, no game_invitations row; hidden games still count -> dedicated count)
- Server.ensureUnderGameLimit gating handleEnqueue + handleCreateInvitation;
game.ErrGameLimitReached -> 409 game_limit_reached
- FB GameList.at_game_limit (regenerated Go + TS) through the gateway transcode
and UI codec; gameListDTO + lobbycache snapshot + Lobby.svelte + i18n
- tests: integration count rule + HTTP gate + accept bypass; server error map;
gateway transcode round-trip; UI codec + lobbycache unit; e2e gamelimit
- docs: PRERELEASE (GL), FUNCTIONAL(+ru), ARCHITECTURE 8, UI_DESIGN, backend README
