When starting an IF game, check for existing save file and restore
if present. Shows 'restoring saved game...' message and broadcasts
restored game state to spectators.
Also cleaned up redundant tests that didn't properly mock the
auto-save functionality now present in ::quit and stop().
- server.py: broadcast IF output to spectators after each input (skip :: escape commands)
- server.py: broadcast leave message when player exits IF mode
- play.py: broadcast game intro text when player starts a game
Spectators at the same x,y coordinates now see formatted output with
[PlayerName's terminal] header and game text.
Helper function sends messages to all players at the same x,y coordinates
as the source player, skipping the source player themselves. Used for IF
spectator broadcasting.
TDD implementation of IFSession that manages a dfrotz subprocess.
IFResponse dataclass follows the editor pattern with output/done fields.
IFSession handles spawning dfrotz, routing input, and detecting the prompt.
Escape commands (::quit, ::help) are handled without sending to dfrotz.
Phase 6: spawn command creates mobs at player position from loaded
templates. Server loads mob templates from content/mobs/ at startup,
injects world into combat/commands module, and runs process_mobs()
each game loop tick after process_combat().
Phase 5: process_mobs() runs each tick, handling mob attack and defense
decisions. Mobs pick random attacks from their move list when IDLE,
swap roles if needed, and attempt defense during TELEGRAPH/WINDOW with
a 40% chance of correct counter. 1-second cooldown between actions.
Training dummies with empty moves never fight back.
Phase 4: when combat ends, determine winner/loser. If the loser is a
Mob, despawn it and send a victory message to the winner. If the loser
is a Player fighting a Mob, send a defeat message instead.
Phase 3: look command now collects alive mob positions using the same
wrapping-aware relative position calc as players, and renders them as *
with the same priority as other players (after @ but before effects).
Phase 2: do_attack now searches the mobs registry after players dict
when resolving a target name. Players always take priority over mobs
with the same name. World instance injected into combat/commands module
for wrapping-aware mob proximity checks.
Phase 1 of fightable mobs: MobTemplate dataclass loaded from TOML,
global mobs list, spawn_mob/despawn_mob/get_nearby_mob with
wrapping-aware distance. Mob entity gets moves and next_action_at fields.
The variant handler now supports prefix matching for directional variants.
This allows 'pa hi' to match 'parry high', 'pa lo' to match 'parry low', etc.
Implementation:
- First tries exact match on variant key
- Falls back to prefix matching if no exact match
- Returns unique match if exactly one variant starts with the prefix
- Shows disambiguation message if multiple variants match
- Shows error with valid options if no variants match
Tests cover exact match, prefix match, ambiguous prefix, no match,
single-char prefix, case-insensitivity, and preservation of target args.
Defense moves now asyncio.sleep for timing_window_ms instead of using
a cooldown field. Input queues naturally since the per-player loop is
sequential. Outside combat shows "parry the air!" flavor text.
- Set variant defense registration to mode="*" (both attacks and defenses)
- Strengthen telegraph switch test to verify new move's telegraph text
- Remove unused punch parameter from four idle timeout tests
- Use single time.monotonic() call in attack() method
Encounters track last_action_at (updated on attack and defend). If 30
seconds pass with no actions, combat fizzles out with a message to both
players and combat mode is popped. start_encounter initializes the
timestamp so fresh encounters don't immediately timeout.
Defenses now work outside combat mode with stamina cost, recovery lock
(based on timing_window_ms), and broadcast to nearby players. Lock
prevents spamming defenses — you commit to the move. Stamina deduction
moved from encounter.defend() to do_defend command layer. Defense
commands registered with mode="*" instead of "combat".
Attacker can change their move mid-telegraph or mid-window without
resetting the timer. Old move's stamina is refunded, new move charged.
Defender gets a fresh telegraph on switch. Feedback says "switch to"
instead of "use" when swapping attacks.
resolve() returns ResolveResult dataclass with attacker_msg, defender_msg,
damage, countered, and combat_ended fields. process_combat is now async
and sends messages to both participants on resolve. Counter, hit, and
slam messages give each player their own perspective on what happened.
