Replace vue-toastification as it appears to no longer be maintained

• Maronato/vue-toastification#379
• Maronato/vue-toastification#380

Might be best to handle this once we've resolved #31 as PrimeVue does appear to have a Toast service that meets our needs.

Allow global modifiers, profile abilities & weapon abilities to be cloned

Just like you can with profiles on the /manage-profiles page.

Increase number of profiles that can be stored in LocalStorage

Blocked by #7.

Missing input validation on "Attack characteristic" condition

See screenshot:

“Hit roll of 5+ (unmodified) : critical hit” needs to be available as a preset profile ability & weapon ability

Inspired by this pain: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WLrZcelIFcs&t=3143s

Support attaching units to units (e.g. Leaders)

Support multiple units per profile to simulate "attached" units such as when a unit leads another unit.

Consider how the "Precision" USR may be supported in the future (see #57 ).

"Generate Extras" effect should be available to the "Remained stationary" condition

From original feature request on Discord:

---

E.g. Knight Crusader ability "Punishing Salvoes":

In your Movement phase, if this model Remains Stationary, until the start of your next Movement phase, this model’s ranged weapons have the SUSTAINED HITS 1 ability.

Start using Iconify for icons

This will help the transition to a new UI library (#31).

• https://iconify.design/docs/icon-components/vue/
• https://icon-sets.iconify.design/
• https://icon-sets.iconify.design/game-icons/

Add link to issue tracker from /feedback page

"Special" effect should be available to the "Remained stationary" & "Attack type" conditions

Space Marine Devastator Squad has an ability where they gain IGNORES COVER for ranged attacks when remaining stationary.

Enable weapon abilities to be toggled just like profile abilities & global modifiers

This would be useful to have but is more of a challenge to pull off in terms of the UI requirements. Worth investigating though!

Remove various redundant preset modifiers

Some preset modifiers could now be considered redundant or certainly less useful than they once were. Let's remove these where possible or otherwise move them to be internal test-only modifiers where tests rely on them.

Example:

"Wound roll of 6 (unmodified) : 1 mortal wound (max 6)"

This would typically now be an effect that was triggered by a crit (however that crit might be achieved) rather than specifically an unmodified 6.

Run update process in a separate thread

The progress bar can hang if there’s a lot of migrations to run during an update. Running this process in a web worker should keep the progress bar looping smoothly while the update runs.

This needs to be sorted before we can consider increasing the max number of profiles that a user can store in their browser.

Hide "New version" alert once /changelog is viewed, persist hidden state until another new version is released

Add FAQ: Explain that UC is not currently open source

Explain that UC is not currently open source software but sign-post both this issue tracker and the Patreon page as means to be able to get involved & support the project.

Retain relevant values when switching between profile input forms

Currently, if you start adding a new profile from the /manage-profiles page, you get the option to choose from all of the possible input forms available, defaulting to "All":

If you start to populate this form and then, before hitting "Save", change your mind and switch to another form (say "Defender") then you lose all of your previous values as the form initialises. This will happen whenever you switch from one form to another.

There are technical reasons for this that I won't go into here but the UX could definitely be improved with some effort.

Consider tackling #34 first.

"PSYCHIC" weapon support

Add a weapon ability effect that adds the PSYCHIC USR and a condition that tests for its presence.

https://www.reddit.com/r/UnitCrunch/comments/16kjkky/psychic_usr/

I feel that there are enough weapons and abilities that deal with the Psychic USR for weapons and defensive options to warrant including these tags, especially when oftentimes units with those USRs have that option mixed in with non-psychic weapons that interact differently with a unit's loadout options.

A good example of this is something like a Farseer embedded in a unit of Guardian Defenders shooting at a unit of Necron Warriors in range of a Canoptek Spyder's Gloom Prism aura; the Warriors would get a 4+++ against the Farseer's Eldritch Storm and Singing Spear / Witchblade attacks, but not against the Guardians' Shuriken Catapults, Heavy Weapons Platform, and Close Combat Weapons, nor the Farseer's Shuriken Pistol.

Support units with >1 model type (e.g. Champions)

E.g:

• Marines with a Sergeant.
• Skitarii with an Alpha.
• Boyz with a Boss Nob.
• etc...

I guess this mainly concerns profiles in the defender role given that things like BS & WS are weapon characteristics now.

Note that I'm not talking about attaching units here (e.g. Leaders) though the changes required in this issue will pave the way for that according to the plan I have in mind.

Hide “Damage not ignored” column & tab when there's no FNP in the mix

The "Damage not ignored" weapon results table column and tab need not show if the defender has no FNP (either as a characteristic their profile or granted via some kind of modifier).

Add FAQ: Importing data from Battlescribe, New Recruit, Rosterizer, Wahapedia etc

I get asked about this a lot, could do with an FAQ to point people to in order to save my little fingers.

Here's a recent comment I left on Reddit answering this very question (OP was specifically talking about New Recruit):

I get asked this a lot, I really must add a new FAQ!

Technically it's possible. It wouldn't be too tricky to write a New Recruit roster to UnitCrunch profiles parser that just covered basic stats (e.g. unit name, characteristics, weapon stats). Adding support for common USRs would be a step up in complexity (e.g. TORRENT, SUSTAINED D3, STEALTH etc). Adding support for all the other weird & wonderful modifiers that UnitCrunch can support would be very tricky & tedious as the way they're expressed in New Recruit / Rosterizer / whatever is likely to be unstructured & inconsistent.

The other thing is that UC's profile & modifier schemas are still under heavy development so any such parser would only work for a few weeks before it needed updating again. I'd certainly consider attempting such a thing once UC's schemas are more stable.

Add “Overwatch” attack context for ranged attacks

This would appear as a checkbox next to “Defender in cover” etc in the “Attack context” panel (for ranged attacks only). Selecting this checkbox would override the requirement to hit to be an unmodified 6.

Also add "Overwatch" as a new modifier effect where we can override the default success roll value to be something other than 6.

https://www.reddit.com/r/UnitCrunch/comments/15q0d1r/overwatch_as_preset_for_global_modifiers/

New modifier effect: "Substitute roll for specific value" (Fate Dice etc)

Could be implemented as a profile ability for Save rolls and a weapon ability for the Hit/Wound/Damage roll.

Cloning profiles is currently borked

To recreate:

1. Go to /manage-profiles.
2. Clone any profile.
3. Note that (clone) has not been appended to the profile name.
4. Make an edit and save the profile.
5. The edit will have been applied to the profile that you thought you just cloned (no clone was created). Doh!

OP: https://www.reddit.com/r/UnitCrunch/comments/19a6bfz/cant_clone_profiles/

I guess this means that the relevant automated test is also borked? Investigate.

Preserve & update global modifiers when running updates

Currently, when an update runs (usually because a new version is released) any active global modifiers you may have set up are destroyed. This can be a bit annoying.

Tweak the update process to preserve any current global modifiers and run any required migrations on them in situ.

Requested here (post is actually about overwatch):

https://www.reddit.com/r/UnitCrunch/comments/15q0d1r/overwatch_as_preset_for_global_modifiers/

Avoid modifier descriptions where "if attacker/defender" is mentioned more than once in sequence

E.g. Reduce:

"Ignore cover (if attacker) (if attacker remained stationary)"

to just:

"Ignore cover (if attacker remained stationary)"

Switch Localstorage to IndexedDB

Problem

Unitcrunch is currently using LocalStorage as the database format for the unit profiles.
The max. 200 profile limitation is quite a big obstacle for hardcore users.
It would be great if there would be no limit.

Solution

Checking the LocalStorage I doubt the max. limit of 10MB is even reached with the 200 profiles right now but to make it absolutely future ready, the solution would be to switch to the Indexed DB API: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/IndexedDB_API
Since I did a transition in one of my apps, I can give motivation that it is easier than it looks first.

With that transition to Indexed DB no limit would be needed anymore.
This can then open up possibilities that free users can only use X profiles and Patreons unlimited.

Additionally an automated profile import from the BSData can be made: https://github.com/BSData/wh40k-10e
Patreons can then select in a dropdown what faction they want to import, e.g. Necrons, and you parse the JSON from BSData and the relevant profiles and import it automatically to Unitcrunch.

Or load up all the faction .cat files in the background and the import/export can be removed all together.
Users can always search for the latest profile they want to crunch. Use the indexed DB just for personal profile customizations.

That's my wish for 2024 and I'm sure the biggest Patreon boost you can get :)
Happy New Year.

Misc. dice stats

Original request: https://www.reddit.com/r/UnitCrunch/comments/18bnv2i/how_about_some_dice_statistics/

It may be useful to have some tool or tables to see stuff like how hard is to get my 10 inch movement unit with advance and charge to travel certain distance, or how good is to re-roll desperate breakouts. It may be easy to find some info or pages that tells you about % to get 7+ on two dices for example, but things like re-rolls, or how often you roll two dices and both get in the same range, like in the re-roll desperate breaks for example... how good or bad are my chances?

Would need some planning as it doesn't really fit with the UC has offered to date but I do think something like this could be interesting & useful if done well.

Merge "Attacker: Melee/Ranged" profile edit forms

40k 10E has lead to UC's "Attacker: Melee/Ranged" profile edit forms being pretty much identical. Let's merge these in a way that simplifies the UI but let's internally keep the door open for a return to distinct attacker forms in case things change again in a near future edition.

Spot the difference:

Attacker: Ranged

Attacker: Melee

Fix modifier description when using "Only" override type ("Override requirements" effect)

I'm sure these modifier descriptions used to be better, this might be a regression. Example:

Have update error capture also send the error message itself

In case it can’t be recreated locally with just the local storage data.

Switch to a new accordion component

Prep for #31 as PrimeVue's accordion component is pretty lame. Previous experiments with vue3-rich-accordion have been positive (will need to theme it).

Add FAQ describing how best to use global modifiers, profile abilities & weapon abilities

https://www.reddit.com/r/UnitCrunch/comments/18bkue0/5_sword_bros_and_a_priest_walk_into_a_landraider/

"Wound type" condition has no effect on the modifier description if used

As per the title. Looks like a regression introduced in 0.59.0.

Add “Non-critical result” to “Re-roll” effect’s “Result to re-roll” options

Original request: https://www.reddit.com/r/UnitCrunch/comments/149jlsw/fishing_for_result/

Quote:

With the advent of [anti], I think that the "fishing for 6s" should really be "fishing for critical" where it would take in account the anti properties of the weapon profile

Increase Save characteristic max value to 8

I've just discovered that the Save characteristic goes even further than 7, i've just started the battleline units and Blue Horrors have a Save value of 8.

Migrate all Vue components to use the Composition API

Am part way there already, need to finish off the remainder.

Defender profile abilities table should not be sortable

Do not close modals/dialogues when clicking outside of them

Still offer a Cancel/Close button. Still close when hitting the Escape key.

https://www.reddit.com/r/UnitCrunch/comments/14n0tu4/disable_close_popup_on_clickout_when_entering_new/

Blocked by #31.

Import not working as intended

Describe the bug
Import button in the import overlay menu does nothing when Add to existing data is checked. Replace existing data still works as intended.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to Manage profiles
2. Click on Import
3. Click on Select file
4. Choose file
5. Click on Import
6. See error

Expected behavior
To import.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Windows 10
• Browser: Firefox 120.0.1

Create demo profiles that demonstrate use of "attached" units and units with >1 model type

Demonstrate what's possible with profile structures once #36 & #37 have been completed.

Add preset modifier: “Re-roll all damage results of 1”

Add preset global modifier & profile ability.

See https://wahapedia.ru/wh40k10ed/factions/aeldari/Fire-Dragons

Profiles with ranged & melee weapons can show an empty "Abilities" column

Describe the bug
A selected attacker profile can end up displaying an empty "Abilities" column for a weapon if the conditions are just right (weapons & weapon abilities).

To Reproduce

1. Create a profile with one ranged weapon & one melee weapon.
2. Add an ability to the ranged weapon.
3. Select the profile to be the attacker and switch the "Attack type " to "Melee".

Expected behavior
There should be no "Abilities" column for the listed melee weapon.

Switch from Firebase to Supabase for backend functions & database

UC currently uses Firebase for backend functions and a database to provide a basic bug reporting system (the front-end for this can be found at https://www.unitcrunch.com/send-debug-data).

Switch from Firebase to Supabase and replicate this functionality. I intend to add more backend functionality in the future but prefer the look of Supabase as a platform (it's open source, I prefer the pricing model, the database looks better for UC's future needs).

Support re-rolling the number of attacks

Under the "Re-roll" effect I'd need to add an "Attacks" option to the "Application" select list. I'd also need to only allow "Result range" as an option in the "Result to re-roll" select list (might as well preselect it in this case).

Change UI library

UC currently uses Vuetify 3. The upgrade path from v2 to v3 was horrendous and I just don't trust the project any more - especially if we want to move to Nuxt.js in the future (very likely).

While upgrading to v3 I did quite a few experiments with PrimeVue which is easily the most promising alternative for UC's requirements. Many of those experiments can be finished off and brought over - I'll "just" need to finish of the remainder...

This will result in some minor changes to look & feel here & there. I don't have the time to fight this too hard so I'm just gonna go with the path of least resistance within reason. Either way, UC remain dark by default.

Exception on range?

Describe the bug
For no reason I don't get ranged weapons stats for this model. See screenshot please:

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Knight Valiant against anything in range
2. Nothing happens. See screenshots.

Screenshots

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: [e.g. iOS] Windows 11
• Browser [e.g. chrome, safari] Vivaldi
• Version [e.g. 22] latest

Once disabled, a modifier alias can not be re-enabled

Describe the bug
Once disabled, a modifier alias can not be re-enabled.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create a new weapon ability.
2. Select the "Special" effect.
3. Select the "Blast" option.
4. Disable the modifier alias by clicking the checkbox next to "Alias: BLAST".
5. Try to re-enable the alias by clicking the checkbox again (it can't be checked).

Expected behavior
The alias should be re-enabled and the checkbox should be checked.

Result range hit re-rolls not working

Tried to keep it simple for the big report.

1. Added a ranged weapon with sustained 2
2. Added re-roll hits of 1–5 to the unit.
3. It returns undefined for the range and doesn’t affect the results.

I’ve tried it both on my Mac and iPhone.

Attacker & Defender entity select inputs should be buttons not text inputs

"Entity select inputs" are marked in red here:

I think these should be swapped for buttons labelled something like "Saved profiles" or similar. The name of the profile is already repeated twice within each relevant expanded panel, we don't need it repeated a third time and we'd get a bit of space back:

Pre-fill “Count per unit” weapon input with value from profile’s “Model count” by default (if empty)

QOL improvement as I think this behaviour will be what you're after over half of the time.
