Extend tests for the real board and add tileEffects unit tests

game.test.js: rewritten for the new {type, rolls} action shape and 5-stat player model. The full-playthrough test now walks the real 212-space board turn by turn (deterministic dummy rolls — always the low end of each die's range) until finish, asserting every stat stays numeric and every one of the 9 real tile types actually gets resolved along the way. board-shape assertions updated to match (212 spaces, no `choices` populated yet). tileEffects.test.js (new): unit tests per tile type in isolation, including exact deterministic assertions against real placeholder-table content (roll a known value, assert the exact banded effect) and a multi-table roll_table_ref cross-check computed independently from the raw table data — no seeded-rng machinery anywhere, same explicit-action-value pattern the reducer tests already used. Also a sweep resolving every real tile across the full range of its die to catch any type/die combination that throws. package.json: test script now runs shared/*.test.js instead of naming one file.
Update client rendering for the real board and 5 stats

 * no hand-placed coordinates. Column = longest-path distance from Start;
 * lane = branch offset that fans out at a 'choice' space and re-centers
 * (averages) at whichever space its branches rejoin. This means the layout
 * keeps working unmodified as shared/board.js grows.
 *
 * Visual style is illustrated-map-ish rather than flowchart-ish: a
 * procedurally scattered terrain backdrop (river, mountains, trees) that
 * doesn't need to align to any specific tile, a wide dashed "road" between
 * spaces, and tiles drawn as beveled signs with a small deterministic tilt
 * per space so they read as hand-placed rather than machine-stamped.

 # Life Journey — Branching / Adjacency Template
 The design doc lists tiles **in order within each segment**, but it does not say
 how the twelve segments connect, or where the forks and merges are. That wiring
 is what turns a pile of tile-lists into a playable board graph. Fill this in and
 I'll turn it into a connection map the game can walk.
 ## The twelve segments (as parsed, in doc order)
 | # | Segment id | Tiles | First tile → Last tile |
 |---|---|---|---|
 | 1 | `starting_strip` | 7 | Graduation party → STOP |
 | 2 | `career` | 22 | Pay Day → STOP |
 | 3 | `investment` | 20 | Pay Day → Dice Space |
 | 4 | `investment_bottom` | 23 | Pay Day → Dice Space |
 | 5 | `high_risk` | 11 | Dice Space → Dice Space |
 | 6 | `gap_year` | 17 | Pay Day → STOP |
 | 7 | `education` | 12 | Pay Day → Graduation Gift |
 | 8 | `relationship_top` | 20 | Pay Day → Aging Parents |
 | 9 | `relationship_bottom` | 26 | Pay Day → … |
 | 10 | `retirement_top` | 11 | Pay Day → Hobby |
 | 11 | `retirement_middle` | 22 | ½ Life Crisis → … |
 | 12 | `retirement_bottom` | 20 | Pay Day → … |
 The `(top)/(bottom)/(middle)` names strongly suggest parallel lanes on the
 physical board — that's exactly the geometry only your layout knows.
 ## What I need — two things
 ### 1. The STOP forks
 There are **3 STOP tiles** (end of `starting_strip`, `career`, `gap_year`). Each
 says "roll D8 to age, then pick your new path." Tell me the choices at each:
 ```
 STOP after starting_strip → player may choose: [ career | education | gap_year ]   ← confirm/edit
 STOP after career         → player may choose: [ ?  | ?  | ? ]
 STOP after gap_year       → player may choose: [ ?  | ?  | ? ]
 ```
 (Do investment / high_risk / relationship / retirement also branch off a STOP,
 or are they entered some other way? Note it.)
 ### 2. Segment connections (the graph)
 For **each segment**, tell me what its **entry** connects from and what its
 **exit** connects to. Easiest format — just fill the arrows, referencing segment
 ids and tile numbers (0-indexed within the segment):
 ```
 career:            enters from  STOP#1        →  exits to  STOP#2
 investment:        enters from  ??            →  exits to  ??
 investment_bottom: enters from  ??            →  exits to  ??
 high_risk:         enters from  ??            →  exits to  ??
 ...
 ```
 If a segment has a **mid-path fork or merge** (e.g. tile 8 of `career` splits to
 `investment` tile 0 AND continues to tile 9), write it like:
 ```
 career tile 8  → forks to: career tile 9  OR  investment tile 0
 relationship_top tile 19  → merges into  retirement_top tile 0
 ```
 Don't worry about being formal — bullet points in plain English are fine. Photos
 or a rough hand-drawn arrow diagram of the board work too; I'll translate.
 ## What happens after you send this
 I convert it into a `board-graph.json` — every tile gets a `next` (or list of
 `next` for forks) so the game can move tokens along real paths. **Only then** do
 coordinates get authored (against the real artwork), because a token's screen
 position and its graph position are two different things and both need the final
 layout to exist first.

 ## Open questions for you / your sister
 - **Win condition** isn't stated in the doc — how does the game end and who wins? (Most Wealth? A blend of cash + Love + Wealth at retirement?)
 - **Age** — the D8 at each STOP adds years; is there a maximum age that ends the game?
 - **Stat meaning** — is *Wealth* a separate point score from *cash ($)*? Treated that way here.
 - **Country sub-tables** (Explore city / Nature / Local rec) are **separate per country** (Mexico, Australia, Japan, Ireland, Germany, Italy) — 18 small tables in total.
 - Several tables are all-players mini-games (trivia, White Elephant, races) — these need special handling in an async game; worth flagging for Phase 3.
 ## Additional gaps found while integrating this into the game engine
 - **`inline_table` tiles have no table content anywhere.** 85 of the 211 tiles (40% of the board) are type `inline_table` — they carry a die size (e.g. `COMPANY RACE DAY`, D10) but reference zero external tables, and none of the 48 tables in roll-tables.json are inline (all 48 have a `source_doc_id`). Whatever content was inline in the original design doc next to these tiles wasn't captured during parsing. Currently these resolve against a generic synthesized placeholder table (same banded shape as the real 48, one per die size, obviously fake numbers) — real content for all 85 is still needed.
 - **`payday`/`cash_bonus` amounts are undefined.** PAY DAY (16 tiles), 100K, 10K, and 401k have no amount specified anywhere in tile-inventory.json or roll-tables.json. Currently using invented placeholder amounts ($2,000 payday; $100,000/$10,000 for the named bonuses; 401k falls into the synthesized-table bucket above) — these are 100% guesses, not derived from anything in the doc.
 - **Multi-table `roll_table_ref` tiles have no documented combination rule.** 22 tiles reference 2–3 tables at once (e.g. `PERFORMANCE REVIEW` references 3), and nothing in the parsed content says how they combine. Currently implemented as "roll and apply every referenced table's effect, summed" — a reasonable guess, but unconfirmed against the actual design doc.
 - The tile-type vocabulary actually has **9 types**, not 7 — `inline_table` and `cash_bonus` exist alongside payday/action_space/dice_space/roll_table_ref/choice/event/stop.

 /**
- * Life Journey — Phase 1 board.
+ * Life Journey — the real board: 211 tiles across 12 segments, built from
 * shared/tileInventory.js (parsed from the design doc).
 *
- * A small representative subset of the full hand-drawn board (assets/game_board.png):
+ * TEMPORARY: the 12 segments have no defined connections yet — that's what
- * a Career-vs-Education fork, a Relationship-vs-Investment fork, a High-Risk-vs-Safe
+ * shared/BRANCHING-TEMPLATE.md is an open request for (the STOP forks, and
- * fork, and a Finish. Same shape as the full sketch — more spaces can be inserted into
+ * which segment's exit feeds which segment's entry). Until board-graph.json
- * any branch array later (repointing one `next`) without touching the reducer.
+ * exists, TEMP_SEGMENT_ORDER below just concatenates all 12 segments in the
 * design doc's own listed order into one line, so movement/tests/rendering
 * have something real to walk. This is NOT the real board topology — delete
 * this placeholder and replace `next` wiring once board-graph.json exists.
 *
- * Space shape: { id, type, label, next?, choices?, cash?, flavor? }
+ * Similarly, no tile in the source data has type 'finish' (win condition is
- *   type: 'start' | 'event' | 'money' | 'choice' | 'finish'
+ * itself an open question in GAME-REVIEW.md) — a synthetic `finish` space is
- *   next: id of the following space (absent on 'choice' and 'finish' spaces)
+ * appended after the last tile so the reducer has something to end on.
- *   choices: [id, id] of the branches offered by a 'choice' space
+ *
- *   cash: fixed integer delta applied on landing (absent/0 for pure flavor spaces)
+ * Movement is one tile per turn (no tile in the data implies a movement die —
 * every `die` value belongs to that tile's own effect resolution), so unlike
 * the old board there is no walkForward()/multi-step-with-early-stop concept
 * here: a turn is just "go to `next`, then resolve whatever that tile needs."
 *
 * Space shape: { id, type, label, die, externalTables, statsTouched, next }
 *   type: one of the 9 tile-inventory types — payday, action_space,
 *     dice_space, roll_table_ref, inline_table, cash_bonus, event, choice, stop
 *   die: 'D100'|'D20'|'D10'|'D8'|'D6'|'D2'|null — what to roll to resolve this tile
 *   externalTables: source_doc_id[] into shared/rollTables.js (0-3 entries)
 *   statsTouched: string[] hint from the source data, informational only
 *   next: id of the following space (absent only on the synthetic 'finish')
 *   choices: NOT set on any tile yet (no real branch destinations are known) —
 *     shared/game.js only pauses a 'choice'/'stop' space for a decision when
 *     `choices` is non-empty, so today every one of these is a harmless
 *     pass-through, not a dead end.

Kevin	6749777b45	Extend tests for the real board and add tileEffects unit tests game.test.js: rewritten for the new {type, rolls} action shape and 5-stat player model. The full-playthrough test now walks the real 212-space board turn by turn (deterministic dummy rolls — always the low end of each die's range) until finish, asserting every stat stays numeric and every one of the 9 real tile types actually gets resolved along the way. board-shape assertions updated to match (212 spaces, no `choices` populated yet). tileEffects.test.js (new): unit tests per tile type in isolation, including exact deterministic assertions against real placeholder-table content (roll a known value, assert the exact banded effect) and a multi-table roll_table_ref cross-check computed independently from the raw table data — no seeded-rng machinery anywhere, same explicit-action-value pattern the reducer tests already used. Also a sweep resolving every real tile across the full range of its die to catch any type/die combination that throws. package.json: test script now runs shared/*.test.js instead of naming one file.	2026-07-28 10:08:37 -07:00
Kevin	db82b531e0	Update client rendering for the real board and 5 stats boardRender.js: TYPE_STYLE now covers the 9 real tile types instead of the old 5 (start/finish/choice/money/event) — payday/cash_bonus/action_space/ dice_space/roll_table_ref/inline_table each get their own icon, color-coded by mechanic (green=income, blue=rolls-against-a-real-table, dashed light-blue=rolls-against-a-synthesized-placeholder, red=decision point). The old per-space cash badge is gone (tiles no longer carry a static cash amount — effects resolve dynamically via tables) and replaced with a die badge ("D20") wherever a tile involves a roll. Also fixes a real bug the headless verification run caught: computeLayout assumed every 'choice'-type space has a populated `choices` array, which none do yet post-rebuild (`for (const t of space.choices)` on undefined) — now falls back to `next` like everything else, and the lane fan-out is keyed off "does this space have more than one outgoing edge" generically rather than off `type`, so it keeps working whenever choices/stop tiles do get real branches later. index.html: player list shows all five stats (cash/love/education/wealth/ age) instead of just cash; the log feed shows each tile's actual resolution description (already human-readable from tileEffects.js) with a small ⚠️ marker on placeholder/invented resolutions, instead of a bare cash delta. computeLayout's colsPerRow bumped to 20 for the much larger (212-space) board.	2026-07-28 10:07:32 -07:00
Kevin	4d78937dca	Rebuild the board and reducer around the real content shared/board.js: rebuilt from shared/tileInventory.js instead of the sketch-inspired placeholder — one chain() per segment (same helper as before), TEMP_SEGMENT_ORDER concatenating all 12 segments in the design doc's own order since board-graph.json (the real segment connections/STOP forks) doesn't exist yet — loudly commented as a placeholder to replace, not a guess at real topology. A synthetic `finish` space is appended since no tile in the source data has that type (win condition is itself an open question). Movement is now one tile per turn (board.spaces[pos].next) — no tile in the data implies a movement die, every `die` belongs to that tile's own effect resolution, so walkForward() is gone. shared/tileEffects.js (new): pure resolveTileEffect(space, rolls) covering all 9 real tile types (payday, action_space, dice_space, roll_table_ref, inline_table, cash_bonus, event, choice, stop) plus rollsNeededFor(space) so the server knows what to pre-roll before constructing an action. Real roll_table_ref/action_space/dice_space tiles resolve against the actual 48 placeholder tables; the two real content gaps (inline_table's 85 tiles, payday/cash_bonus amounts) resolve against a synthesized generic banded table per die size, every result clearly flagged `todo: true` so it's visible in the game log, not just in docs. shared/game.js: player state is now flat {cash, love, education, wealth, age} fields (mirrors a roll-table effect object's shape directly). Landing logic calls resolveTileEffect() instead of applying a single cash delta, and only pauses for a decision when a space's `choices` array is actually populated (true of nothing yet) — keeps the existing pending-choice machinery intact for once board-graph.json exists, instead of needing choice/stop tiles to block on options nobody has defined. server/rooms.js: REQUEST_ROLL now looks up the player's next tile, determines what it needs via rollsNeededFor(), and pre-rolls each die via crypto.randomInt before constructing the ROLL action — same randomness-happens-once-at-the-server-boundary pattern as before, just covering N table rolls instead of one movement die. server/index.js: default config now carries startingStats instead of startingCash, and maxPlayers is 8.	2026-07-28 10:06:59 -07:00
Kevin	220f70d342	Add the real 211-tile / 5-stat game content shared/tile-inventory.json + shared/roll-tables.json + shared/GAME-REVIEW.md + shared/BRANCHING-TEMPLATE.md were parsed from the design doc in a separate session and were already sitting untracked in this repo. This is the real, authoritative game content — 211 tiles across 12 segments, 5 player stats (cash/love/education/wealth/age), 48 placeholder roll tables — far more complete than the hand-sketch-inspired board built earlier. Adds shared/tileInventory.js and shared/rollTables.js: mechanical `export default {...}` wrappers around the same JSON (kept as-is alongside them as the raw source reference), so the content is importable both by the server and by the browser fetching shared/*.js with zero bundler — the same pattern every other file in shared/ already uses. Avoids relying on JSON module import-attribute syntax, whose support is uncertain on node:20-alpine (the Dockerfile's base image). Also includes assets/colors.json and assets/tile_types.json (an apparently separate, incomplete transcription of the hand sketch) — not wired into anything yet, just brought into version control. Appends integration-gap TODOs to GAME-REVIEW.md: 85 inline_table tiles have a die size but no table content anywhere in the parsed files; payday/ cash_bonus amounts are undefined everywhere; multi-table roll_table_ref tiles (2-3 tables at once, 22 of them) have no documented combination rule.	2026-07-28 10:05:55 -07:00
Kevin	70eeb78eaf	Give the board an illustrated-map feel instead of a flowchart Same data-driven layout as before (nothing about computeLayout changed) — only what gets drawn changed: - Procedural terrain backdrop: a winding river, a few mountain clusters, and denser two-tone trees, scattered deterministically like the existing tree-blobs were, so none of it needs hand-alignment to specific tiles and it keeps working at any board size. - The road between spaces is now a wide dashed dirt path with a subtle hand-drawn "wobble" (SVG feTurbulence/feDisplacementMap) instead of a clean vector line. - Tiles are beveled: a drawn shadow copy, a gloss gradient, and a few degrees of per-tile tilt derived from a hash of the space id (deterministic, not random-per-render) so they read as hand-placed rather than machine-stamped. Choice diamonds get a small signpost stick underneath. Prototyped and screenshotted headlessly before committing; user confirmed this direction over the previous flowchart-style rendering.	2026-07-22 09:17:25 -07:00
Kevin	6aa9769ce5	Expand the board to the full sketch (~107 spaces, three forks) shared/board.js now transcribes every distinct space label from the hand-drawn sketch (assets/game_board.png) rather than Phase 1's small subset. The sketch's arrows get genuinely ambiguous in a few places (it reads as a mockup, not an engineered spec) and reuses several space names across zones (Start A Business, Family Reunion, Market Crash, ...) — that repetition is kept as intentional flavor rather than deduplicated, and the ambiguous bits are resolved into a clean DAG with the same shape Phase 1 proved out: a fork, a chain() per branch, a convergence — repeated three times (Career/Education/Gap Year, then Relationship/Investment, then High Risk/Safe), into a long shared retirement tail. Branches are built with a small chain() helper that auto-wires each entry's `next` to the following one, since hand-wiring ~107 ids was too error-prone. The reducer, SQLite schema, and rooms/WS layer needed zero changes — the whole point of the pure-reducer/graph-data design from Phase 1. Two things did need generalizing: - public/boardRender.js's lane offset was hardcoded to a 2-way fork; the new "Which Path?" fork is 3-way (Career/Education/Gap Year), so the offset formula is now symmetric for any number of branches. - shared/game.test.js hardcoded Phase 1's specific space ids. Rewritten to be board-structure-agnostic: it always resolves the first offered choice and otherwise rolls the max die value, which reliably makes progress regardless of board shape (walkForward always stops early at the next choice/finish), plus a graph-well-formedness check. Verified: unit tests green; a full two-player game played headlessly end-to-end through all three forks to Finish in 38 turns with zero console/page errors; the rendered board visually confirmed at full scale (5-row snake layout, 3-way fork fans out correctly, all labels legible).	2026-07-21 18:56:27 -07:00
Kevin	8df4859696	Render the board as SVG, laid out from the graph data Adds public/boardRender.js: a layout algorithm that derives every space's position purely from shared/board.js (column = longest-path distance from Start, lane = branch offset that fans out at a choice space and re-centers wherever branches rejoin), so it keeps working unmodified as the board data grows — no hand-placed coordinates to maintain. Renders spaces as styled SVG nodes (color/shape by type), connects them with curved path lines, and animates player tokens between positions. Pending choices glow and are clickable directly on the board, in addition to the existing text buttons. Game view widens the card on desktop for the board and scrolls horizontally on narrow viewports. Also repicks the player color palette (server/index.js) to avoid the board's own semantic colors (green/gold/red), after a token nearly disappeared into the same-colored Start space during visual testing. Verified with a headless-browser run (Playwright, off-screen — not a desktop screenshot): two players through lobby -> live join update -> board -> a fork choice, no console errors, reducer tests still green.	2026-07-21 18:12:01 -07:00
