Carry the caller's per-tier active-game caps and each game's kind on the
wire (Profile.game_limits + GameView.kind, additive FBS + gateway transcode
+ client codec, committed regen). The New Game screen counts the player's
active games per kind from the lobby and locks a capped start: an outline
button with a lock that opens a funnel modal instead of a game -- a sign-in
prompt for a guest, a "finish a current game first" notice for a signed-in
account (native Telegram popup, in-app modal elsewhere). The lock lifts via
the existing profile refetch after a guest->durable upgrade.
Remove the lobby's old at_game_limit New-Game tab disable + notice: the flag
(now the random-kind cap) conflicted with the per-kind lock -- it hid the
screen where the lock lives and wrongly blocked an unfulfilled kind. The New
Game tab is always enabled; the per-kind start lock is the only gate. The
at_game_limit wire field stays (unused by the client) for a later cleanup.
Tests: client lock logic + codec kind/game_limits roundtrip + gateway
transcode encode + native popup builders (unit); a mock e2e for the lock
badge and the modal.
Three owner-requested polish changes:
- robot: replace the lengthening 60-90 min -> 6 h proactive-nudge ramp with a
flat uniform 9-12 h wait before every nudge; the existing sleep-window gate
still skips and defers a nudge that would land in the robot's night.
- ui: colour the lobby/in-game unread dot by type -- the regular danger colour
when a chat message is unread, a softer amber (--warn) when only nudges are.
Adds a per-viewer unread_messages flag (chat_messages.kind='message') across
the backend DTO, FlatBuffers wire, gateway transcode and the UI store.
- ui: float games with any unread notification to the top of the lobby's
your-turn and opponent-turn sections (finished keeps its order), reusing the
existing unread_chat flag.
Docs (ARCHITECTURE 7, FUNCTIONAL + _ru) updated. No DB migration; the new wire
field is backward-compatible.
Persist per-message read state as a chat_messages.unread_seats bitmask
(migration 00008): a text message seeds every recipient seat's bit, a nudge
only the awaited seat's. A seat's bit clears when the player opens the move
history or chat (POST /games/:id/chat/read, sent only when something is
unread), and a nudge additionally clears when its recipient answers by moving
(a wired game NudgeClearer, dependency-inverted so game keeps off social).
UI shows a per-viewer unread dot in the lobby (next to the opponent) and the
game score bar — the unread_chat game-view flag seeds it from authoritative
REST views, live chat/nudge events raise it. Opening the move history counts
as reading (even without entering chat): the 💬 fade-blinks twice and the
client acks. Admin Messages gains an unread-only filter, a read/unread column,
and a per-message card with the per-seat read breakdown. Observability:
chat_read_duration histogram + chat_unread_messages gauge + social tracing.
New Game's quick game gains an explicit opponent selector — 🤖 AI (default)
or 👤 Random player. AI starts a game seated with a pooled robot that joins
and moves at once: no per-move timeout (a 7-day inactivity loss reusing the
turn-timeout sweeper), chat/nudge disabled, no statistics, the opponent shown
as 🤖 everywhere. The random path (disguised robot) is unchanged.
Driven by one game flag (games.vs_ai), set only on AI-started games so the
disguised path is never revealed; Matchmaker.StartVsAI seats the robot
directly (no open pool); the robot replies event-driven via the game service's
after-commit/after-create hook. Wire: vs_ai on EnqueueRequest + GameView.
Surface the per-game "single word" rule to the client and refine the
random-opponent New Game screen.
- Wire: thread multiple_words_per_turn into the GameView and Invitation
FlatBuffers tables (Go + TS regenerated), through pkg/wire builders and both
the backend push-event and gateway REST paths.
- In-game indicators (single-word games only): a small 1 in the status bar's
score-preview slot (yields to the live preview) and a centred "One word per
turn" label in the history-drawer header. Standard games show neither.
- Invitation card gains a "One word per turn" line for single-word invitations.
- Auto-match redesign: variant plaques are mutually-exclusive selects (highlight
on tap, no longer enqueue); a lone offered variant is pre-selected; a bottom
"Start game" button (disabled until a variant is chosen) confirms. The rule
toggle appears once a Russian variant is selected.
- Tests: e2e for the new auto flow and the in-game indicator (mock g3 is a
single-word game); mock/data + fixtures carry the new field. Docs: UI_DESIGN.
Lobby: group the my-games list into your-turn / opponent-turn / finished
(empty sections hidden), ordered by last activity (your-turn oldest-first,
the other two newest-first), as a compact line-separated list. gameDTO and
FB GameView gain last_activity_unix (turn start while active, finish time
once finished); a pure lib/lobbysort.ts holds the grouping/ordering.
Friends: the in-game 'add to friends' item is now server-derived via a new
GET /user/friends/outgoing (+ friends.outgoing op), returning addressees with
a pending OR declined request (both read as 'request sent'), so it is correct
across reloads; it shows a disabled '✓ in friends' once accepted. It
live-updates when the opponent answers: RespondFriendRequest now publishes
friend_added (accept) / friend_declined (new notify sub-kind, decline) to the
original requester, whose open game re-derives its friend state.
Tests: lobbysort unit test; gateway outgoing + last_activity transcode tests;
backend integration ListOutgoingRequests + respond-publishes-to-requester;
e2e updated for the new lobby section labels + a non-friend active opponent.
