Contributing to the project

Please take a moment to review this document in order to make the contribution
process easy and effective for everyone involved.

Following these guidelines helps to communicate that you respect the time of
the developers managing and developing this open source project. In return,
they should reciprocate that respect in addressing your issue, assessing
changes, and helping you finalize your pull requests.

As for everything else in the project, the contributions to this project are governed by our team.

Using the issue tracker

First things first: Do NOT report security vulnerabilities in public issues! Please disclose responsibly by letting [ this project team](mail to:team@thethis projectfirm.com?subject=Security) know upfront. We will assess the issue as soon as possible on a best-effort basis and will give you an estimate for when we have a fix and release available for an eventual public disclosure.

The issue tracker is the preferred channel for bug reports,
features requests and submitting pull
requests, but please respect the following restrictions:

• Please do not use the issue tracker for personal support requests. Use
  the this project Chat.

• Please do not derail or troll issues. Keep the discussion on topic and
  respect the opinions of others.

Bug reports

A bug is a demonstrable problem that is caused by the code in the repository.
Good bug reports are extremely helpful - thank you!

Guidelines for bug reports:

1. Use the GitHub issue search — check if the issue has already been
   reported.

2. Check if the issue has been fixed — try to reproduce it using the
   latest master or next branch in the repository.

3. Isolate the problem — ideally, create a reduced test case.

A good bug report shouldn't leave others needing to chase you up for more
information. Please try to be as detailed as possible in your report. What is
your environment? What steps will reproduce the issue? What OS experiences the
problem? What would you expect to be the outcome? All these details will help
people to fix any potential bugs.

Example:

Short and descriptive example bug report title

A summary of the issue and the browser/OS environment in which it occurs. If
suitable, include the steps required to reproduce the bug.

1. This is the first step
2. This is the second step
3. Further steps, etc.

<url> - a link to the reduced test case

Any other information you want to share that is relevant to the issue being
reported. This might include the lines of code that you have identified as
causing the bug, and potential solutions (and your opinions on their
merits).

Feature requests

Feature requests are welcome. But take a moment to find out whether your idea
fits with the scope and aims of the project. It's up to you to make a strong
case to convince the project's developers of the merits of this feature. Please
provide as much detail and context as possible.

Pull requests

Good pull requests - patches, improvements, new features - are a fantastic
help. They should remain focused in scope and avoid containing unrelated
commits.

Please ask first before embarking on any significant pull request (e.g.
implementing features, refactoring code), otherwise you risk spending a lot of
time working on something that the project's developers might not want to merge
into the project.

For new Contributors

If you never created a pull request before, welcome : tada: 😄 Here is a great tutorial
on how to send one :)

1. Fork the project, clone your fork,
   and configure the remotes:

   # Clone your fork of the repo into the current directory
   git clone https://github.com/<your-username>/<repo-name>
   # Navigate to the newly cloned directory
   cd <repo-name>
   # Assign the original repo to a remote called "upstream"
   git remote add upstream https://github.com/this projecthq/<repo-name>

2. If you cloned a while ago, get the latest changes from upstream:

   git checkout master
   git pull upstream master

3. Create a new topic branch (off the main project development branch) to
   contain your feature, change, or fix:

   git checkout -b <topic-branch-name>

4. Make sure to update, or add to the tests when appropriate. Patches and
   features will not be accepted without tests. Run npm test to check that all
   tests pass after you've made changes. Look for a Testing section in the
   project’s README for more information.

5. If you added or changed a feature, make sure to document it accordingly in
   the README.md file.

6. Push your topic branch up to your fork:

   git push origin <topic-branch-name>

7. Open a Pull Request
   with a clear title and description.

For Members of the this project Contributors Team

1. Clone the repo and create a branch

   git clone https://github.com/this projecthq/<repo-name>
   cd <repo-name>
   git checkout -b <topic-branch-name>

2. Make sure to update, or add to the tests when appropriate. Patches and
   features will not be accepted without tests. Run npm test to check that
   all tests pass after you've made changes. Look for a Testing section in
   the project’s README for more information.

3. If you added or changed a feature, make sure to document it accordingly in
   the README.md file.

4. Push your topic branch up to our repo

   git push origin <topic-branch-name>

5. Open a Pull Request using your branch with a clear title and description.

Optionally, you can help us with these things. But don’t worry if they are too
complicated, we can help you out and teach you as we go :)

1. Update your branch to the latest changes in the upstream master branch. You
   can do that locally with

   git pull --rebase upstream master

   Afterwards force push your changes to your remote feature branch.

2. Once a pull request is good to go, you can tidy up your commit messages using
   Git's interactive rebase.
   Please follow our commit message conventions shown below, as they are used by
   semantic-release to
   automatically determine the new version and release to npm. In a nutshell:

   Commit Message Conventions

   • Commit test files with test: ... or test(scope): ... prefix
   • Commit bug fixes with fix: ... or fix(scope): ... prefix
   • Commit breaking changes by adding BREAKING CHANGE: in the commit body
     (not the subject line)
   • Commit changes to package.json, .gitignore and other meta files with
     chore(filenamewithoutext): ...
   • Commit changes to README files or comments with docs: ...
   • Cody style changes with style: standard

IMPORTANT: By submitting a patch, you agree to license your work under the
same license as that used by the project.

Triagers

There is a defined process to manage issues, because this helps to speed up releases and minimizes user pain.
Triaging is a great way to contribute to this project without having to write code.
If you are interested, please [leave a comment here](https://github.com/this projecthq/discussion/issues/50) asking to join the triaging team.

Maintainers

If you have commit access, please follow this process for merging patches and cutting new releases.

Reviewing changes

1. Check that a change is within the scope and philosophy of the component.

2. Check that a change has any necessary tests.

3. Check that a change has any necessary documentation.

4. If there is anything you don’t like, leave a comment below the respective
   lines and submit a "Request changes" review. Repeat until everything has
   been addressed.

5. If you are not sure about something, mention @this project/maintainers or specific
   people for help in a comment.

6. If there is only a tiny change left before you can merge it and you think
   it’s best to fix it yourself, you can directly commit to the author’s fork.
   Leave a comment about it so the author and others will know.

7. Once everything looks good, add an "Approve" review. Don’t forget to say
   something nice 👏🐶💖✨

8. If the commit messages follow our conventions

   1. If there is a breaking change, make sure that BREAKING CHANGE: with
      exactly that spelling (incl. the ":") is in body of the according
      commit message. This is very important, better look twice :)
   2. Make sure there are fix: ... or feat: ... commits depending on wether
      a bug was fixed or a feature was added. Gotcha: look for spaces before
      the prefixes of fix: and feat:, these get ignored by semantic-release.
   3. Use the "Rebase and merge" button to merge the pull request.
   4. Done! You are awesome! Thanks so much for your help 🤗

9. If the commit messages do not follow our conventions

   1. Use the "squash and merge" button to clean up the commits and merge at
      the same time: ✨🎩
   2. Is there a breaking change? Describe it in the commit body. Start with
      exactly BREAKING CHANGE: followed by an empty line. For the commit
      subject:
   3. Was a new feature added? Use feat: ... prefix in the commit subject
   4. Was a bug fixed? Use fix: ... in the commit subject

Sometimes there might be a good reason to merge changes locally. The process
looks like this:

Reviewing and merging changes locally

git checkout master # or the main branch configured on github
git pull # get latest changes
git checkout feature-branch # replace name with your branch
git rebase master
git checkout master
git merge feature-branch # replace name with your branch
git push

When merging PRs from forked repositories, we recommend you install the
hub command line tools.

This allows you to do:

hub checkout link-to-pull-request

meaning that you will automatically check out the branch for the pull request,
without needing any other steps like setting git upstreams! ✨

Issues

Issue open :
It is not just like fun and You need also post a valid post with the opening Issue.

Closing Issue:
Actully this is also follow same above and It will need to more percise to resolve the problem and test yourself and then you can close.

I have a particle system, it'll need

• Gravity adding to it
• Tying in to the player death so it goes kaboom when a player dies with some orange bits and bobs
• Initial velocity should be the velocity of the player as it'll be well coool

Currently missiles are slow, and that's good enough for testing

• Speed them up so they can't be avoided just by flying
• Optional: Add turning speed to them so they don't just zero in on target (so they can be faster than target in straight line but less so if banking heavily)
• If a missile has been fired and the firer loses targetting, missile should become a stray and stop tracking target

Need to de-couple the actual game from the 'engine', and have different processes running for different running games ( starting with PvP and PvE, with reportable stats so users can join the right thing)

I need some maps, currently using a brute force generated heightmap terrain - but that's kinda lame.

If I use blender to create a 'surface', mark it as such, and then place models around it I'll effectively have a 'map' file which can be efficiently rendered with pre-calculated lighting and ... buildings and stuff.,

I need to add buildings/whatever to the scene to give a real impression of scale/speed

Stick a around the current player's name in the score list

Time to add style, thinking Neon battle grid with glowing shaders/effects

And show an error if they try connecting and fail

Currently weapons are just 'missile' for an instant kill, everybody in PvP should start with two missiles and have a machine gun for wearing enemies down (this implies that people have 'life' or 'shield' which means that'll need modelling too)

Very quickly now - a couple of tables that show

a) People who have played, ordered by their scores
b) Profile pages that show deaths (who has killed you) and kills (who you have killed)

If we're going third person then the camera needs to always be behind the craft, regardless of the direction the craft is going in

Once the new maps are done, there should be a better sense of scale and the craft can probably get away with moving a bit slower.

They'll need to slide down angled surfaces.

Spent the past week on an architectural tidy up (Yeah, unusual in this project), but that means my messaging/eventing/commands are much tidier now and it's no longer crippling to think of adding new gameplay features.

Part of this means that there is much less division between client and server, I'm thinking I should make two drivers (client and server) and stick all the rest of the code in a shared folder and further subdivide into entity components, controllers, messengers etc. It'll make life much better.

Er, not doing this at all - for most things it doesn't matter, but for the explosions this is going to present an issue

I've already upgraded, but I'm using socket.send.json, which is utterly wrong.

MOAR AI PLS

I've a basic terrain texture which I'm going to keep (I really cba with any splatting/Lod algorithms on this project), but a detail texture wouldn't go amiss for when we're zoomed up close

At the moment, targeting is a mystery to players, we need

• An indicator showing that a player is being tracked (can be more than one)
• A special indicator showing that we're trying to get a lock on a player ( the one we've had tracked longest)
• An indicator to show that we HAVE a lock on a player/we've fired on that player
• A distance indicator to show
  • How far from the player we are
  • how far our missile is once it is fired

Server crashes occasionally, but only because of failed writes to socket.

I guess on bad write to socket we should consider the socket disconnected and throw the client away

Shao Chen wants to shout at players who kill him because he's a pussy, I guess it's only fair

Would be nice to have some text/help as part of the loading mechanism and to use the canvas for this (with a spinning circle or whatever is cool these days)

The most basic thing ever

• On entering the site for the first time, user enters a name they want to be
• This gets sent to the server for 'validation' and it is set in a cookie
• Cookie is read by client code on connect, and contents sent to server on socket.io start-up
• Server ties this to the socket.io connection and lo' the player has a name
• I'll have a log-out button so they can clear this cookie if they want

Clients could do with notifying when they've been disconnected, it's only polite.

Why? Nobody knows...

Find somewhere with free sound effects (or purchased if they're cheap) so we can have a bit of noise

It would be nice to see who you're shooting at before you shoot at them

On death, the camera zooms out so you can see the entire map, a countdown showing how long until you spawn again would be a big plus.
