Resolves #4970

Description:

Currently its impossible to know how long left before you can re-alliance someone, unless you have cheats. I would like to expose this information to the user and make it so that they are able to see when they can next send an alliance request. I added this in the exact same place that someone would go to send an alliance request (if they arent using hotkeys.)

Addition of alliance cooldown onto the radial menu. The colour is easily changeable as its a constant used throughout.

Walkthrough

The change calculates alliance-request cooldowns, includes them in player interaction data, and displays them in the radial menu with numeric duration, cooldown styling, dynamic refresh, and guarded ally-extend rendering.

Changes

Alliance cooldown flow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Cooldown data contract and calculation
src/core/game/Game.ts, src/core/game/PlayerImpl.ts, src/core/GameRunner.ts, tests/PlayerImpl.test.ts, tests/core/GameRunner.test.ts
The player API calculates remaining alliance-request cooldowns and exposes them through playerActions. Tests cover eligibility checks, rounding, expiration, and interaction payloads.
Radial menu cooldown element
src/client/hud/layers/RadialMenuElements.ts
The alliance request element reads the interaction cooldown and uses the alliance cooldown color.
Radial menu cooldown rendering
src/client/hud/layers/RadialMenu.ts
The radial menu renders cooldown colors, opacity, numeric durations, repositioned icons, refreshed labels, timer gradients, and guarded ally-extend updates.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to d236d

The alliance request and cooldown display will not appear in the radial menu because the rendering guard uses the wrong attribute name. The PR is not merge-ready until this localized UI defect is corrected.

Poem

Cyan numbers softly glow,
Cooldown ticks now clearly show.
Paths and icons shift in line,
Timers refresh by design.
Stale SVGs are swept away,
Alliances wait another day.

Ignore stale asynchronous icon renders.

refreshAllyExtendIcon() clears the group and starts a new asynchronous render when the cooldown or agreement state changes. An older getSvgAspectRatio() promise can resolve after the newer render and append stale handshake images.

Track a per-content render generation and ignore callbacks from older renders.

Route the cooldown label through translateText().

The cooldown value is user-visible, but the code writes it directly with .text(...). Use a translation key and pass the numeric cooldown as a parameter.

As per coding guidelines: **/*.{ts,tsx} requires all user-visible text to go through translateText().

693-710: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor

Synchronize cooldown layout during refresh.

The aspect-ratio early return is fixed, but refresh() still changes only opacity and existing text. It does not recalculate the image y position or create .cooldown-text when the cooldown becomes active.

A visible menu can keep the cooldown position after expiry or show no cooldown number after activation. Recompute the position and create or remove the label on every cooldown transition.

This is the same unresolved positioning issue reported in the previous review comment.

1401-1403: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Use the correct render-generation attribute.

renderAllyExtendIcon() stores data-render-generation on Lines 1383-1386, but this guard reads the misspelled data-render-gneration. The attribute is absent, so Number(null) is 0 while generation starts at 1. The callback always returns before it appends the handshake images.

Proposed fix
-        Number(content.getAttribute("data-render-gneration")) !== generation
+        Number(content.getAttribute("data-render-generation")) !== generation

🤖 Claude Code Review

Verdict: Needs changes — 2 high-severity regressions in RadialMenu.ts, both introduced by this PR's own diff. No CLAUDE.md violations found.

Findings by severity: 2 High, 0 Medium, 0 Low

src/client/hud/layers/RadialMenu.ts

1. (High) Typo in the stale-render guard attribute name permanently breaks the "ally extend" icon (~lines 1380-1405, in renderAllyExtendIcon)

The generation counter is written as data-render-generation:

content.setAttribute("data-render-generation", generation.toString());

but read back inside the async getSvgAspectRatio(iconUrl).then(...) callback as data-render-genration (missing the "e"):

if (
  Number(content.getAttribute("data-render-genration")) !== generation
) {
  return;
}

Since that attribute is never actually written, getAttribute always returns null, Number(null) is 0, and generation is always >= 1. The guard is therefore always true and the callback always returns early — but the code that builds and appends the handshake <image> elements lives entirely inside that same callback, after the guard. On the update: true path the existing children are removed synchronously before this, so the icon is wiped and never replaced. Net effect: the alliance-extend wedge icon renders permanently empty, both on first render and on every update.

Fix: read the same attribute name that was written — data-render-generation, not data-render-genration.

2. (High) maybeUpdateTimerGradient moved into a branch where it can never run, freezing the alliance-expiry timer arc (~lines 1203-1263, in the refresh/updateElements method)

The diff shifts a closing brace so this.maybeUpdateTimerGradient(item, color, opacity); moves from the outer scope (previously ran for every menu item) into the else branch of:

if (item.renderType === "allyExtend" && this.params) {
  this.refreshAllyExtendIcon(item, disabled, icon);
} else {
  ...text / image / cooldown-text updates...
  this.maybeUpdateTimerGradient(item, color, opacity); // now nested here
}

maybeUpdateTimerGradient only does anything when item.timerFraction is set, and in RadialMenuElements.ts the only element with timerFraction set is allyExtendElement, which is also the only element with renderType: "allyExtend". That means the call is now nested inside the one branch that specifically excludes allyExtend items — it can never execute for the item it exists for. Since refresh() is the per-tick update path (called every tick while the menu is open) and the timer gradient defs are otherwise only rebuilt on a full re-render (menu open/navigate, not per tick), the alliance-expiry countdown arc will freeze at whatever fraction it had when the menu was opened and never advance while the menu stays open.

Fix: move this.maybeUpdateTimerGradient(item, color, opacity); back outside the if/else, so it runs unconditionally for every item (as it did before this diff), immediately before the closing brace of the enclosing if (icon) { ... } block.


Two other candidates were investigated and ruled out after verification: the hardcoded y = 42 icon offset for the cooldown state (the radial menu geometry is fixed and ally_request always occupies the same wedge, so 42 reliably lands correctly — just an undocumented magic number, not a bug), and a suspected hover-opacity regression (the changed code is the selected-submenu-parent glow branch, not the hover handler — hover styling via brightness(1.5) filter is untouched).

🤖 Claude Code Review

Verdict: No issues found. Findings: 0 critical, 0 high, 0 medium, 0 low.

Reviewed src/core/game/PlayerImpl.ts, src/core/game/Game.ts, src/core/GameRunner.ts, src/client/hud/layers/RadialMenu.ts, src/client/hud/layers/RadialMenuElements.ts, and the accompanying tests for CLAUDE.md compliance (core determinism, no external deps in src/core, required core tests, translateText()/en.json usage) and for bugs/logic errors.

  • Core cooldown math (Math.max(Math.floor((remainingTicks + 9) / 10), 0)) is correct integer ceil-to-seconds arithmetic and its guard clauses correctly mirror canSendAllianceRequest.
  • The new data-render-generation / data-cooldown-active guard attributes in RadialMenu.ts are set and read consistently, correctly preventing stale async getSvgAspectRatio callbacks from clobbering a later render.
  • The i18n change replaces a hardcoded "Ns" string with the existing renderDuration() helper, which already routes through translateText() — no new untranslated strings introduced.
  • src/core changes are covered by new tests in tests/PlayerImpl.test.ts and tests/core/GameRunner.test.ts.
  • One candidate concern (an opacity change in RadialMenu.ts's selected-parent-arc branch potentially affecting all submenu items) was investigated and ruled a false positive: that branch is unreachable given all current call sites of renderMenuItems, and even if reached would not change the wedge's actual rendered opacity.

No changes requested.

As mentioned on the dev server https://discord.com/channels/1359946986937258015/1516059111215730820/1542606489124995114:

A current alliance countdown is shown with a draining hourglass effect (the green becomes whiter) on the shaking hands icon above the name.

When it's time to renew, that countdown is also shown as draining hourglass in the alliance button (the hands blink as well but that's not the effect that this is about).

Could we not do the reverse here, where the blue background fills up during the countdown to zero (white to blue, from bottom to top in the opposite direction of an hourglass)?

That would be more consistent with the existing design. Otherwise we'd have hourglass effect without numerical countdown in two places, and no hourglass effect but numerical countdown for one other

(although the delete countdown IS shown with actual numerical timer.. this is about alliance countdown but yeah)
