 # Online-Diagnose für Zwei-PC-Tests
 Ab dem nächsten gemeinsamen Client-/Nakama-Update schreibt das Spiel während jeder Online-Partie Messwerte lokal mit. Beim Sieg (Welle 15), bei einer Niederlage oder beim Verlassen sendet jeder PC seinen Bericht automatisch an Nakama. Beide Berichte bekommen dieselbe 16-stellige Rundenkennung und die Seitenzahl `0` oder `1`. Die Spieler müssen dafür keinen Diagnose-Button bedienen. Bei vorübergehendem Übertragungsfehler versucht der Client es dreimal; die lokale `.jsonl`-Datei bleibt als Rückfallebene erhalten.
 Die private Server-zu-Server-RPC `list_online_diagnostics` liefert mit `{}` eine Übersicht der letzten Berichte. Mit `{"round_id":"<16-stellige Kennung>"}` liefert sie die zwei vollständigen Seitenberichte. Sie ist wie `private_stats` nur mit dem privaten Nakama-HTTP-Schlüssel erreichbar; Spielclients können sie nicht aufrufen. Für den Vergleich einer Partie erst die Rundenkennung in der Übersicht auswählen und anschließend beide Seiten laden. Die Kennung steht außerdem nach erfolgreichem Upload in der Spielausgabe als `ONLINE DIAG hochgeladen: Runde ...`.
 Online gespeichert werden nur technische Messwerte. Nachrichten, IP-Adressen, Spielernamen, Raumcodes und der rohe Match-Identifier werden nicht als Bericht gespeichert. Der Server nimmt nur Berichte von Konten an, die tatsächlich Teilnehmer der Runde waren. Berichte und Teilnehmerzuordnung werden nach 14 Tagen beim nächsten Diagnoseabruf oder -upload bereinigt.
 Jede `window`-Zeile fasst etwa zehn Sekunden zusammen:
 | Feld | Bedeutung |
 | --- | --- |
 | `snapshots_per_second`, `gap_p95_ms`, `gap_max_ms` | Wie regelmäßig Zustände beim PC eintreffen; erwartet sind ungefähr 10/s bzw. 100 ms Abstand. |
 | `tick_jump_max`, `tick_jumps_over_1` | Ob Server-Schritte zwischen verarbeiteten Zuständen fehlen. Zusammen mit den Empfangsabständen und Warteschlangenwerten zeigt das, ob Zustände ausblieben oder erst verspätet gebündelt ankamen; allein beweist es noch keine Ursache. |
 | `bytes_avg`, `bytes_max` | Größe der vollständigen Zustandsnachrichten. Wachsende Werte bei vielen Gegnern/Türmen weisen auf Datenmenge als möglichen Faktor hin. |
 | `coalesced`, `queue_dropped`, `queue_max` | Mehrere Zustände kamen vor einem Bild zusammen oder die Warteschlange lief voll. Das deutet auf einen Client-Rückstau hin. |
 | `parse_max_us`, `apply_max_us` | Höchste Zeit für JSON-Verarbeitung bzw. Anwenden des Zustands in Godot. |
 | `frame_max_ms`, `frame_stalls_over_200_ms` | Lokale Bildaussetzer, auch wenn das Netz regelmäßig liefert. |
 | `enemies`, `towers` | Last im Spiel zum Zeitpunkt der Messung. |
 Zusätzliche `snapshot_gap`, `tick_jump`, `frame_stall`, `socket_closed` und `socket_reconnected`-Zeilen markieren einzelne Ereignisse. Die Uhrzeit ist UTC, damit beide PCs direkt verglichen werden können. Ein Empfangsabstand allein beweist keine Paketverluste: Er kann auch durch Serverlast, Netzwerk-Jitter oder einen blockierten Client entstehen. Für eine eindeutige Zuordnung die gleichzeitigen Berichte **beider PCs** vergleichen; serverseitige `ONLINE DIAG tick_gap_ms`- und `loop_ms`-Warnungen helfen zusätzlich.
 Wichtig: Alte Spielversionen laden noch nichts hoch. Vor einem echten Zwei-PC-Test müssen sowohl der neue Windows-Build als auch der aktualisierte Nakama-Runtime-Code veröffentlicht sein.

 Die geschützte Statistikseite kann außerdem Freischaltcodes für alle Türme, alle Karten oder beides erstellen. `create_unlock_code` ist nur Server-zu-Server mit dem Nakama-HTTP-Schlüssel verfügbar. Codes werden über ihren SHA-256-Schlüssel nachgeschlagen; zusätzlich liegt der Klartextcode für die geschützte Admin-Übersicht in einem privaten Nakama-Speicherobjekt mit `permissionRead:0` und `permissionWrite:0`. Das Spiel kann diese Objekte nicht lesen. `list_unlock_codes` liefert Code, Freischaltumfang, optionale Bemerkung, Erstellungszeit und Einlösungszähler ausschließlich für Server-zu-Server-Aufrufe zurück. Die Statistikseite zeigt daraus „Offen“, „Teilweise eingelöst“ oder „Eingelöst“; die Bemerkung ist optional und auf 160 Zeichen begrenzt. Hinweise können z. B. Empfänger beschreiben und sollten keine unnötigen privaten Daten enthalten. Bereits vor dieser Erweiterung erzeugte Codes behalten ihren Status, aber ihr Klartext kann nicht rekonstruiert werden.
 Das Einheiten-Balancing liegt einheitlich im privaten Nakama-Speicher (`game_balance/global`). Die geschützte Statistikseite liest und ändert es über die nur mit `NAKAMA_HTTP_KEY` aufrufbaren RPCs `get_game_balance` und `set_game_balance`; der HTTP-Schlüssel wird nie an Clients ausgeliefert. Angemeldete Spielclients rufen `get_game_balance` beim Start auf, cachen die letzte gültige Konfiguration lokal und verwenden sie auch offline. Jede neue Online-Partie lädt dieselbe Konfiguration serverseitig bei `matchInit`; bereits laufende Partien bleiben unverändert. Falls der Server unerreichbar ist, gelten der letzte lokale Cache bzw. die eingebauten Ausgangswerte. Änderung des Balancings erfordert dadurch keine neue Spiel-EXE, aber das Runtime-Bundle auf dem Nakama-Server und die interne PHP-Seite müssen zunächst aktualisiert werden.
 `server/nakama/tests/balance_duel_test.js` ist ein reproduzierbarer Referenztest, der die echte Nakama-Kampf-Simulation nutzt und alle zulässigen Turm-/Gegner-Kombinationen sowie den ersten Boss bewertet. Er ist ein gezielter 1-gegen-1-Wegtest (ein Level-1-Turm, keine Upgrades/Unterstützung), kein Ersatz für komplette Wellen- und Spielertests. Ergebnisse daher als Warnsignal und Vergleich zwischen Versionen verwenden, nicht als alleinige automatische Balancing-Entscheidung.
 Pro Konto gelten höchstens zehn Codeversuche in fünf Minuten. Die Spieler lösen Codes im Menü über `redeem_unlock_code` ein; die Freischaltungen liegen am Onlinekonto und werden nach einer Anmeldung über `get_promo_unlocks` wiederhergestellt. Für die Codeverwaltung müssen sowohl das Nakama-Runtime-Bundle als auch die PHP-Statistikseite aktualisiert werden. Der Nakama-HTTP-Schlüssel bleibt ausschließlich auf Unraid und im privaten Webhosting-Verzeichnis.
 Im Hauptmenü ist eine Ranglistenansicht für die aktuell gewählte Karte und Schwierigkeit eingebaut. Sie zeigt Mission und Endlosmodus getrennt, löst aktuelle öffentliche Profilnamen auf und hebt den eigenen Eintrag hervor.

-Bei einem stockenden Onlinespiel schreibt der Client alle zehn Sekunden eine Zeile `ONLINE DIAG` ins Godot-Protokoll: Anzahl und maximale Lücke der Zustandspakete, Lücken über 500 ms, größte Paketgröße, maximale JSON-Lese- und Zustandsanwendungszeit. Zusätzliche Zeilen melden Bildaussetzer über 200 ms und WebSocket-Abbruch/Wiederverbindung. Eine große Paketlücke bei normaler Bildrate deutet auf Übertragung oder Server hin; eine lange Bildlücke ohne Paketlücke eher auf den Client. Für eine Fehlermeldung möglichst die Zeilen direkt vor und nach dem Hänger sichern; Spielerkennungen und Zugangsdaten werden darin nicht ausgegeben.
+Bei einem stockenden Onlinespiel schreibt der Client jetzt einen fortlaufenden Diagnosebericht pro Partie. Im Online-Pausemenü kann der Bericht mit **DIAGNOSE KOPIEREN** vollständig in die Zwischenablage kopiert werden. Er enthält Zehn-Sekunden-Werte und einzelne Hänger-/Verbindungsereignisse, aber keine Spielernamen, Raumcodes oder Kontenkennungen.

-Der Client fasst bei Rückstau maximal fünf eingetroffene Spielstände zusammen: Nur der neueste Zustand wird angewendet, die Schusseffekte dieser wenigen Pakete bleiben erhalten. Ältere, verworfene Zustände sind nur noch historische Zwischenbilder. `coalesced` in `ONLINE DIAG` zählt die dabei übersprungenen Zustände. Weg- und Baufeldgeometrie wird nur beim Karten- bzw. Arenenwechsel neu berechnet. Der lokale Snapshot-Test prüft außerdem, dass Geschosse nach einem langen Bildaussetzer ihr Ziel erreichen und verschwinden.

 # Void Bastion 0.1.0-alpha.11
 ## Neu in dieser Testversion
 - Private Koop-Räume können jetzt auch nach dem Wechsel in die Lobby Freunde einladen.
 - Freunde lassen sich über den sichtbaren Pilotennamen suchen, statt lange technische Kennungen manuell zu kopieren.
 - Die Schilde des Mutterschiff-Bosses in Welle 5 wurden halbiert.
 - Online-Partieberichte werden beim Ende oder Verlassen automatisch pseudonymisiert an Nakama übertragen und mit einer gemeinsamen Rundenkennung für beide PCs abgelegt.
 - Die geschützte Statistikseite enthält nun eine Übersicht und Detailansicht der Online-Diagnoseberichte.
 ## Testhinweise
 - Für automatische Diagnoseberichte müssen beide Spieler Alpha 11 und der aktualisierte Nakama-Server verwenden.
 - Bitte mit zwei Konten Namenssuche, Freundeseinladung aus der Lobby und einen Online-Spielverlauf einschließlich Verlassen testen.
 - Die Diagnoseberichte enthalten technische Messwerte, keine Namen, Chatnachrichten, IP-Adressen oder Raumcodes. Sie werden serverseitig nach 14 Tagen entfernt.

 ## Balance-Konfiguration und Online-Korrekturen
 - Türme und Gegner verwenden für Offline-Partien dieselbe zentrale Balance-Konfiguration wie für neue Online-Partien.
 - Angemeldete Spieler laden freigegebene Werte automatisch; der letzte gültige Stand wird lokal zwischengespeichert und bei fehlender Verbindung weiterverwendet.
 - Laufende Online-Partien behalten ihren beim Start geladenen Balance-Schnappschuss.
 - Der erste Boss hat weniger Hüllen- und Schildpunkte.
 - Die interne Statistikseite kann Balance-Werte für Türme und Gegner bearbeiten.
 ## Hinweise
 - Das Duellwerkzeug ist eine gezielte Einzelkonfrontation und kein vollständiger automatisierter Durchspieltest. Das Spielbalancing sollte zusätzlich mit echten Missionsläufen geprüft werden.

 ## Balance- und Onlinekorrekturen
 - Der Online-Server übernimmt den ausgewählten Schwierigkeitsgrad „Leicht“ jetzt korrekt, statt ihn auf „Mittel“ zurückzusetzen.
 - Flak-Schaden pro Treffer: 20 → 22.
 - Belagerer-Grundhülle: 740 → 620. Das wirkt sich auch auf die daraus berechneten Schilde aus.
 - Gespeicherte Balancewerte aus Schema 1 werden beim ersten Lesen auf Schema 2 migriert. Nur Felder, die noch exakt den alten Flak-/Belagerer-Standardwerten entsprechen, werden angepasst; andere eigene Admin-Balancewerte bleiben erhalten.
 - Ein reproduzierbarer 15-Wellen-Missionstest ergänzt die vorhandenen Runtime- und Turm-Gegner-Duelle.

 Freundschaftsanfragen, bestätigte Freundschaften und Online-Präsenz verwenden die eingebauten Nakama-Funktionen. Die app-eigene RPC `invite_friend` nimmt ausschließlich die Freundes-ID und einen sechsstelligen privaten Raumcode entgegen. Sie prüft, dass der Absender den Raum erstellt hat und eine gegenseitige Freundschaft besteht. Je Empfänger gilt ein Mindestabstand von 15 Sekunden. Die Benachrichtigung ist nicht persistent und enthält nur Absendername und Raumcode; ein Chat oder frei eingebbarer Einladungstext existiert nicht. Die Funktion muss zusammen mit dem aktualisierten Godot-Client ausgerollt werden.
 `find_player_by_name` löst einen sichtbaren Spielernamen per exakter, nicht groß-/kleinschreibungsabhängiger Suche in eine interne Benutzer-ID auf. Wenn mehrere Konten denselben Anzeigenamen haben, wird die Anfrage als `ambiguous` abgewiesen, statt versehentlich das falsche Konto hinzuzufügen. Der Client zeigt und kopiert im Freundemenü nur den sichtbaren Namen. Im privaten Warteraum ist für bestätigte Freunde `EINLADEN` verfügbar.
 ## Online-Diagnose
 `submit_online_diagnostics` nimmt am Ende einer Online-Partie automatisch technische Berichte der beiden Clients entgegen. Der Server prüft anhand der beim Matchbeitritt gespeicherten Teilnehmerzuordnung, ob das sendende Konto zur Runde gehört. Beide Berichte werden mit derselben 16-stelligen Rundenkennung und unterschiedlichen Seitenzahlen gespeichert. Es werden nur erlaubte numerische Messwerte und vordefinierte Ereignisse übernommen; keine Namen, Nachrichten, IP-Adressen oder Raumcodes. Die Speicherung ist serverprivat und wird nach 14 Tagen beim nächsten Diagnoseabruf oder -upload bereinigt.
 Die Server-zu-Server-RPC `list_online_diagnostics` liefert mit `{}` eine kompakte Übersicht. Mit `{"round_id":"<Kennung>"}` liefert sie beide vollständigen Seitenberichte. Der private HTTP-Schlüssel gehört ausschließlich in die Server-/Webhosting-Konfiguration, niemals in den Spielclient. Weitere Auswertungshinweise stehen in `ONLINE_DIAGNOSE.md`.
 ## Private Statistik-RPCs
 - `record_activity`: nur für angemeldete Spieler; aktualisiert die pseudonyme Aktivität sowie aggregierte Plattform- und Versionswerte.
 - `private_stats`: nur als Server-zu-Server-Aufruf mit `NAKAMA_HTTP_KEY`; liefert die zusammengefassten Werte für die interne Homepage.
 - `get_game_balance`: authentifizierte Spielclients erhalten die freigegebene Balance-Konfiguration; `set_game_balance`: ausschließlich Server-zu-Server mit `NAKAMA_HTTP_KEY` darf sie ändern. Die Werte gelten für neue Online-Partien; `matchInit` lädt einen privaten Snapshot in den Match-Zustand.
 - `create_unlock_code`, `list_unlock_codes` und `delete_unlock_code`: nur Server-zu-Server mit `NAKAMA_HTTP_KEY`; verwalten private Freischaltcodes inklusive Einlösungsstatus und optionaler Admin-Bemerkung. Löschen ist nur bei null Einlösungen möglich; eine versionsgebundene Löschung schützt vor einer gleichzeitigen Einlösung.
 Balancing-Regressionstests: `node tests/runtime_sim_test.js` prüft Runtime- und RPC-Verhalten; `node tests/balance_duel_test.js` spielt reproduzierbare Einzelduelle mit der echten Server-Kampflogik durch; `node tests/balance_mission_test.js` simuliert 15-Wellen-Missionen mit festem Zufallsstart, Turmwahl nach Gegnerzusammensetzung und Level-1-Türmen. Der Missionstest ist ein strenger automatischer Referenz-Bot ohne Upgrades, keine Vorhersage menschlicher Spielergebnisse. Die Werte des Bots sollen als Ausgangspunkt für Balancevergleiche dienen, nicht als alleiniges Freigabekriterium. Alle Tests müssen nach Balanceänderungen erneut laufen.
 Der Code-Lookup verwendet einen SHA-256-Schlüssel. Für die private Admin-Übersicht wird der Klartextcode zusätzlich in einem Nakama-Speicherobjekt mit `permissionRead:0` und `permissionWrite:0` gehalten; Spielclients können dieses Objekt nicht lesen. Bemerkungen sind auf 160 Zeichen beschränkt. Die echte Webhosting-Konfiguration mit dem HTTP-Schlüssel darf nicht in Git abgelegt werden.
