# DESIGN §31 — 0.2.6-dev
Part of [DESIGN.md](../DESIGN.md). Development after the 0.2.5 release.
## 31. Host bandwidth (layers 0 and 1) and community follow-up
Unreleased. The maintainer's decision of 2026-10-12 on the bandwidth study (its measurements: a new player's first match costs the
host about 52 MB, audio ≈ 40 % of it; returning players re-download after a re-extraction, a `setup --force`, a Docker
rebuild or a changed tunnel address): do layer 0 (small fixes) and layer 1 (content-hashed URLs, long caching, brotli)
first. Later layers (WebP / Opus variants, an asset-only service worker, a desktop client mode, importing an asset pack in
the browser) are agreed and not part of this note. Nothing here touches the battle sim, the protocol messages or the
committed data.
### 31.1 Layer 0 — small fixes
- **No BGM while the music is silent.** Muted, or the BGM volume at 0, `AudioManager.playBgm` only remembers the wanted
track (a different one still playing stops); `setVolumes` fetches and starts it once the music is audible again. SFX
and voices were already gated. Normative line: design/client.md Audio.
- **WebSocket permessage-deflate** (`server/http/websocket.js WS_DEFLATE`): frames from 1 KB, no server context
takeover, a 2 KB server window, zlib memLevel 7 (about 72 KB of zlib state per connection). [ASSUMED] the parameters
come from measured solo sessions (the server counters: 173 KB of frames → 60 KB on the wire; replaying 216 captured
frames, windows above 2 KB gained nothing); co-op messages are the same kinds. A client that offers a narrower server
window than 2 KB, which ws would refuse with a 400, connects uncompressed instead (`narrowDeflateOffer`). Normative
line: design/network.md §8 Transport.
- **玩法说明 pages as WebP.** `tools/local-extract/extract.py` writes a WebP copy beside each of the 19 local pages and
the manifest lists it (`GUIDE_WEBP_MODE`); the guide preloads only the next page instead of both neighbours. The
copies are lossy at quality 90: 25.6 MB → 4.2 MB on the CN client's pages (lossless would be 17.4 MB). Tutorial pages
could go lossy only after a side-by-side comparison; the maintainer looked at 2× crops of four pages on 2026-10-12 and
chose quality 90 (`GUIDE_WEBP_MODE`; `extract.py --webp` rewrites existing copies). Normative lines: design/client.md
§13, ASSETS.md Post-processing.
- **Traffic counters.** `GET /healthz?traffic=1` adds `traffic` (HTTP body bytes and requests by category — assets,
audio, code, data, other — and 304s; WebSocket wire bytes after compression and payload bytes before it) and
`assetHashes` (the index state). The 问题反馈 diagnostics gain a `traffic:` line: the page's Resource Timing
`transferSize` by the same categories (`shared/assetPaths.js trafficCategory`), other sites apart. Nothing is stored
or uploaded. The maintainer's decision of 2026-10-12: only a loopback or private-network client gets the counters
(`server/http/routes.js`, the address from `net.js clientAddress`, so TRUST_PROXY applies as for the WebSocket
limits); any other client — also a visitor that a tunnel or proxy on this machine forwards — gets the plain report.
- **DEPLOY.md**: a stable address keeps every player's cache, settings and reconnect token (a quick tunnel's new domain
is a new site to the browser); HTTP/2 through the proxy saves round trips, not bytes; browsers offer brotli on HTTPS
pages and localhost only; a Cloudflare cache rule for `/assets/`, `/fonts/`, `/media/` (with the risk note).
### 31.2 Layer 1 — content-hashed URLs, long caching, brotli
- **Content-hash index** (`server/http/assetIndex.js`): 1 s after the start, SHA-256 (16 hex) of every file under
`public/assets/` and `public/fonts/` (dot names skipped, linked folders followed once), computed off the main thread,
cached in `.cache/asset-hashes.json` by path + size + mtime (12,691 files / 724 MB here: 1.3 s the first time, 0.25 s
after). A file whose size or mtime differs from its record is never vouched for; serving it asks for a rescan (at most
one per 10 s). [ASSUMED] the 1 s delay and the 10 s rescan gap. A name that differs from a file's only in case finds
that file (the manifest's `/assets/module/wah-y.png` is `WAH-Y.png` on this machine). `SP_ASSET_INDEX=0` turns it off.
- **Served manifests** (`server/http/assetViews.js`): `/data/assets.json` and `/data/local-assets.json` go out with every
art URL carrying its file's hash as the first segment (`/assets/~<hash>/…`, `/fonts/~<hash>/…`; audio stays
`/assets/~<hash>/audio/….mp3`). A Spine model — a `{ skel, atlas, textures }` object of data/assets.json, a `spine/…`
group of data/local-assets.json — carries one hash for all its files, since pixi-spine finds the atlas and the pages
next to the skeleton. `no-cache` with the view's own ETag; rebuilt in memory when a manifest or the hashes change; the
committed files are never written. Until the index is ready, without it, or on a static host: the files as committed.
- **The `~hash` routes**: `static.js` strips the segment for `/assets/`, `/fonts/` and `/media/`; a hash that names the
file's current bytes (its own or its model's) answers `public, max-age=31536000, immutable`, any other the current
file with `no-cache` (an old page keeps working). Every indexed file's ETag is its content hash, on plain URLs too.
Path segments, never `?v=`: `validSpine`'s `/\.skel$/`, `SKILL_MODE_FILE`'s `.mp3`, pixi-spine's basename and folder
resolution all need the URL to end in the file name.
- **Media**: `public/js/media.js` turns `/assets/~<hash>/audio/x.mp3` into `/media/~<hash>/x`; `server/http/media.js`
resolves it like `/media/x`. The token death sound derived next to `charDie` drops `charDie`'s hash (`unhashedUrl`).
- **Brotli** (`server/http/files.js`): quality 5 on the fly with the same memory cache (one entry per file and
encoding), for clients that name `br` at least as high as gzip; gzip for the rest (`*` alone never picks brotli
[ASSUMED]); `-br` / `-gz` ETag suffixes. Measured against gzip-6 on this repository: `.skel` −27 %, `data/*.json`
−26 %, vendor −14 %, `public/js` and `server/sim` −5 %, `.atlas` −7 %.
### 31.3 Measured sample session
Measured sample session (headless Chrome, a fresh profile, `test/e2e/fastServer.mjs` solo match from round 3 to the
result after round 5, host bytes only, response headers included; the shop and the enemies vary between runs):
| session | code | data | assets | audio | WebSocket (server → client) | host total |
|---|---:|---:|---:|---:|---:|---:|
| before, music on | 3.16 MB | 0.67 MB | 9.0–9.7 MB | 7.9 MB | 163–179 KB (no compression) | 20.8–21.4 MB |
| after, music on | 2.95 MB | 0.62 MB | 9.5 MB | 8.0 MB | 60 KB on the wire (173 KB payload) | 21.1 MB |
| before, muted | 3.16 MB | 0.67 MB | 9.6 MB | 7.3 MB (BGM) | 165 KB | 20.7 MB |
| after, muted | 2.95 MB | 0.62 MB | 9.5 MB | 0 | 57 KB on the wire | 13.1 MB |
A first visit with music on saves little (brotli on code and data, the WebSocket); a muted player saves the BGM. The
caching gains are for returning players: within a day both versions answer from the browser cache, but after that the
old version revalidated every asset of the session (≈ 340 requests here) and re-downloaded everything whose mtime had
changed, while a hashed URL is never asked for again until its bytes change.
### 31.4 Open items and tests
Open: `/fonts/fonts.css` (linked by index.html) and the woff2 files it names keep plain URLs (content ETags only); the
optional versioned vendor URLs (layer 1.5) are not done.
Tests: `test/ui/audio.test.js` (BGM gating; hashed audio through `/media/~hash/`), `test/ws-compression.test.js`,
`test/local-extract.test.js` (guide WebP), `test/ui/localArt.test.js` (next-page preload), `test/traffic.test.js`,
`test/asset-paths.test.js`, `test/diag.test.js` (traffic line), `test/asset-index.test.js` (index, views, `~hash`
routes), `test/lobby.test.js` (brotli negotiation, streamed brotli, content ETags), `test/media-url.test.js`,
`test/content/tokens_summons.test.js`; the browser suites `test/render/browser.test.js` (Spine through hashed URLs,
`RENDER_E2E=1`), `test/ui/bond-audio.e2e.test.js` (`SP_E2E=1`, the cue through `/media/~hash/`) and
`test/ui/real.e2e.test.js` (`SP_REAL_E2E=1`: the co-op run loads Spine, audio and art through hashed URLs). The e2e
servers wait for the asset index before the first page (`test/e2e/client.mjs startRealServer`, the in-process ones in
their `before`), so the browser suites see the URLs a player sees. Golden: unchanged.
### 31.5 Strategy skip eligibility
PR #546 by @Xinglan233. The strategy-selection page only enables skipping while another unpicked player remains. The published order
keeps finished players for display, so its total length cannot establish that a skip has a recipient. The client
counts order entries absent from `draft.picks`, alongside the existing turn and quota checks. The server's
`skipBand` already rejects the final player with `BAD_TARGET / nobody to pass to`; its rule remains unchanged.
Regression covers normal two-, three- and four-human browser flows, the final turn, and exhausted quota.
### 31.7 Official scene light gains (#549)
GitHub #549 (@xcdoge, confirmed by other players): the official battlefield scenes of 0.2.5 read much darker than the
official client. 0.2.5 scaled the two light terms of `sceneMaterial` below the values the extractor stores —
`SCENE_LIGHT.direct` 0.8 and `.indirect` 0.4, tuned by eye against one PRTS screenshot and marked [ASSUMED]. From 0.2.6
both are 1: the key light at the scene's `light.intensity` and the lightmap's baked linear light as decoded
(`scenes.py decode_rgbm`). The maintainer compared the two on 2026-10-13 and chose the official values. PR #554 by
@xcdoge also raised `LIGHTING.emissive` from 0.25 to 1; that part is not taken: it retunes the procedural metal board
and its glass, which were matched to screenshots, and does not touch the scene meshes. `ambient` 0.2 (a mesh without a
lightmap page) stays [ASSUMED]. The water (#549's second half, PR #555) is unchanged here.
Tests: `test/render/board3d-scene.test.js`; the 3D board browser suite with the extracted scenes.
