david raistrick 0473eacc1d WIP: BUG-5 slot-array fix + FEAT-1 dead-not-skipped + skip parser
WORK IN PROGRESS — fix not complete. analyze-turns.js on 500-round
replay still finds 46 real skips + 64 double-acts.

turn.js changes:
- computeTurnOrderAfterAddition: insert by initiative (not append end)
- nextTurn wrap: no re-sort, cycle pointer
- togglePause resume: no re-sort, order stable
- addParticipant: patches turnOrderIds when started
- applyHpChange: death no longer flips isActive or touches turnOrderIds
  (FEAT-1 dead-not-skipped)

Tests:
- shared/tests/turn.skip.test.js (NEW): deterministic skip invariants
  pure 100 rounds + 540 rounds w/ mutations, both green
- shared/tests/turn.dead-skip.test.js: 4 green (FEAT-1)
- turn.characterization.test.js: 3 sites updated to new behavior
- turn.combat.test.js: boundary count fixed (wrap-turn attributed to
  new round), debug dump removed

scripts/analyze-turns.js (NEW): deterministic replay-stdout parser.
Reconstructs rounds, reports real skips + double-acts. Exit 1 on issue.
Catches bugs unit tests miss (46 skips/64 double-acts in 500 rounds).

TODO: FEAT-1 marked done, FEAT-2 added (upgrade app logs parseable).

Feature backlog

FEAT-1: Dead participants stay in turn order — DONE

  • Fixed: applyHpChange no longer flips isActive or touches turnOrderIds on death/revive. Dead stay in rotation, nextTurn visits them, PCs get death-save turn. isActive = DM toggle only.
  • Tests: shared/tests/turn.dead-skip.test.js (4 green). Char tests updated to new behavior.

FEAT-2: upgrade app internal logs to be parseable

  • Goal: combat logs in Firestore store enough structured state to run skip/rotation analysis on ANY historic round — not just replay stdout.
  • Current logs: {timestamp, message, encounterName, undo}. Parser must guess roster from message strings. Brittle.
  • Upgrade: add structured fields at turn-state mutation log sites in App.js (startEncounter, toggleActive, addParticipant, removeParticipant, applyHpChange death/revive, togglePause, nextTurn):
    turnSnapshot: { round, currentTurnParticipantId, turnOrderIds, activeIds }
    
  • Then scripts/analyze-turns.js ingests app logs directly (adapter fetch). Works on real game sessions, any round, deterministic.
  • Parser scaffold NOW ingests replay stdout only (stopgap until FEAT-2).

Confirmed bugs (tests written, NOT fixed)

BUG-1: addParticipant + pause/resume corrupts turn rotation

  • RESOLVED as side effect of BUG-2 fix (dup-id rejection broke chain).
  • Audit: 0 violations / 100 rounds after BUG-2 fix.
  • Replay: 10 rounds clean, no skip/dupe.
  • Audit: 128 violations / 100 rounds, 4 symptom faces.
  • Symptom chain (one bug family):
    1. pause blocks nextTurn advance → totalTurns stays frozen (e.g. 120)
    2. addParticipant re-adds same r${totalTurns} id (BUG-2: no dedup)
    3. togglePause resume rebuilds turnOrderIds → dup id appears x2
    4. nextTurn gets stuck on dup id → rotation breaks
    5. eventually nextTurn throws 'Encounter not running'
  • Symptom counts (audit-state.js, 100 rounds): 62x turnOrder-no-dup, 52x rotation-dupes, 14x nextTurn-throws
  • Repro in replay round 10+: current stuck on one participant forever, nextTurn returns same id, round never advances.
  • Clean minimal repro (shared/tests/turn.pause-add.test.js) PASSES = combo needs more state than single add+pause. Audit authoritative repro.
  • Clean subsystems (zero violations): HP bounds, isActive, deathSave range, conditions, removeParticipant orphans.
  • Real repro = node scripts/audit-state.js (or audit-rotation.js).

BUG-2: addParticipant allows duplicate id

  • FIXED (commit: addParticipant throws on dup id).
  • Test: shared/tests/turn.characterization.test.js 'addParticipant rejects duplicate id' --- GREEN.

bug-3 was a halucination has been removed

BUG-4: hide-player-HP breaks display view (preexisting)

  • Broader than hide-HP: ALL 5 storage.setDoc(getPath.activeDisplay(), ...) calls use {merge:true} which is IGNORED (setDoc = replace per contract). Each write clobbers other fields on activeDisplay/status doc.
    • line 1619: hide-HP toggle → clobbers campaignId+encounterId (display paused)
    • line 1648: start combat → clobbers hidePlayerHp
    • line 1779: end combat → clobbers hidePlayerHp
    • line 1997: deactivate → clobbers hidePlayerHp
    • line 2002: activate → clobbers hidePlayerHp
  • Toggle "hide player HP" in admin → display view flips to "Game Session Paused".
  • Toggling back does NOT recover. Must re-activate encounter in encounters panel to restore display.
  • Expected: hide-HP toggle updates one field on activeDisplay/status doc, display stays live on current encounter.
  • Likely cause: toggle writes to wrong path, or clobbers activeCampaignId/ activeEncounterId with null (setDoc replace vs updateDoc patch).
  • Fix: use updateDoc (patch) not setDoc (replace); or include all existing fields when writing.
  • Test: render App + DisplayView, toggle hide-HP, assert display still shows encounter (not paused).

BUG-5: mid-round addParticipant/revive corrupts rotation

  • Test: shared/tests/turn.combat.test.js (jest, seeded RNG, RED).
  • 13 rotation-dupes / 100 rounds. First at round 4 (Cleric twice).
  • Pattern: Reinforce/Summon added mid-round → appears in rotation same round → round wrap re-sorts by initiative → currentTurnParticipantId pointer stale → nextTurn revisits.
  • Root cause: computeTurnOrderAfterAddition appends id to turnOrderIds end. Round wrap re-sorts by initiative. currentTurn pointer stale after sort → drifts → nextTurn revisits.
  • This is the test audit should have been. Mirrors replay-combat.js op sequence exactly (damage, heal, conditions, toggleActive, deathSave, remove, add, edit, pause/resume, reorder, revive-between-rounds).

BUG-6: reorderParticipants doesn't update turnOrderIds

  • Test: shared/tests/turn.reorder.test.js 'reorder updates turnOrderIds' (RED).
  • reorderParticipants(enc, draggedId, targetId) swaps two same-initiative participants in participants[] array but leaves turnOrderIds unchanged.
  • nextTurn rotates via turnOrderIds only → reorder has NO effect on combat rotation. Mid-encounter drag-drop = pointless.
  • replay-combat.js calls reorderParticipants with WRONG signature (enc, reorderedArray) --- swallowed by try/catch, silent no-op. So replay never exercised real path either.
  • Fix: reorder must also update turnOrderIds to match new participant order (within same-initiative tie).

BUG-7: reorderParticipants has no undo

  • Test: shared/tests/turn.undo.test.js 'reorderParticipants has no undo' (GREEN doc).
  • reorderParticipants returns log: null. Other ops return log.undo.
  • Cannot undo drag-drop. Candidate for undo system (M6).

BUG-8: ws adapter has no reconnect

  • Test: server/tests/ws-reconnect.test.js (RED).
  • WS dies (idle/error/close) → wsReady=null, subscribers dead forever.
  • Display frozen until full reload.
  • Fix: onclose → reconnect + re-subscribe existing paths.

Pipeline (bugs only --- milestones live in REWORK_PLAN.md)

  • BUG-4: fix setDoc→updateDoc for all 5 activeDisplay sites
  • BUG-5: fix computeTurnOrderAfterAddition currentTurn re-anchor
  • BUG-6: reorderParticipants update turnOrderIds
  • BUG-8: ws adapter reconnect
