Code Quality

Before

  • 4,921 lines in game_handler.cpp
  • 779 opening braces, 779 closing braces
  • 20+ singlePlayerMode_ conditional branches
  • SQLite3 build dependency

After

  • 2,795 lines in game_handler.cpp (-43%)
  • 450 opening braces, 450 closing braces
  • 0 singlePlayerMode_ references
  • No SQLite3 dependency

Verification

# Brace balance
grep -c "{" src/game/game_handler.cpp  # 450
grep -c "}" src/game/game_handler.cpp  # 450

# SP references
grep -ri "singleplayer" src/ include/   # 0 matches
grep -ri "sqlite" src/ include/         # 0 matches

Testing Required

Before merging to master:

  • Build succeeds
  • Application launches
  • Auth to server works
  • Can view characters
  • Can create character
  • Can enter world
  • Movement works
  • Combat works
  • Inventory works
  • Quests work
  • Loot works
  • No crashes

Migration Path

For users on master branch:

# Current state preserved in master
git checkout master

# New online-only version
git checkout remove-single-player

# Test, then merge when satisfied
git checkout master
git merge remove-single-player

Performance Impact

Expected improvements:

  • Memory: ~2MB less (no SQLite, no SP state)
  • Startup: Slightly faster (no DB init)
  • Update loop: Cleaner (no SP simulation)
  • Disk I/O: None (no save files)

Breaking Changes

⚠️ Incompatible with master branch saves

  • No save files in remove-single-player branch
  • All state is server-side only
  • Cannot load SP saves (none exist)
