WiseDev 9f3ac3f0b9 use the client's square root, wrong answers and all
LogicMath::sqrt is a 256-entry table of floor(16*sqrt(i)) with a seed
picked by magnitude and one or two newton steps on top, and it is not
exact: above 2147441940 the seed overshoots and the single correction
cannot pull it back, so it answers 46341 where the true root is 46340,
and 65535 for INT_MAX.

that matters because the checksum is computed over whatever it returns.
an honest square root would be a permanent, invisible disagreement, so
this one is transcribed branch for branch - including the early -1 for
negatives and the INT_MAX special case - and our own converging root is
gone. checked against the exact root across the low range and the
boundaries, where the two agree, and at the top, where they must not.

distances now go through the saturating helper before the root, the way
the client does it, rather than being squared in i64 on the way in.

scroll-server

A server for the scroll client (Clash Royale 2.0.1306, iOS). Takes a real client from TCP connect to the lobby: login, own home data, chests, card upgrades, the shop.

Requirements

  • Rust 1.75+
  • PostgreSQL 16

Running

createdb scroll
cargo run --release -p scroll-server

Listens on 0.0.0.0:9339, the port the client hardcodes. The schema is created on first boot. DATABASE_URL defaults to postgres:///scroll.

On macOS a Homebrew cluster may need LC_ALL=C to start at all.

That runs everything in one process. For real isolation, SCROLL_MODE=supervised makes it spawn the three services as child processes and restart any that dies, with backoff:

SCROLL_MODE=supervised ./target/release/scroll-server

They can also be started by hand, in any order:

cargo run --release -p auth-service
cargo run --release -p game-service
cargo run --release -p gateway

Checking it without a phone

scroll-probe speaks the same protocol and prints the decoded lobby:

cargo run --release -p gateway --bin scroll-probe -- 127.0.0.1:9339

Flags: --claim-free-chest, --buy-chest <name>, --desync. Pass an account and pass token to reconnect as an existing player: scroll-probe 127.0.0.1:9339 0 1 <passtoken>.

Pointing a client at it

The client hardcodes game.clashroyaleapp.com. Patch that string in the binary inside the ipa to your machine's address, keeping the 23 byte slot NUL padded so nothing around it moves.

Shop

config/shop.json lists what the server sells, as Name#count:

{
  "offers": [
    { "id": 1, "give": "Gold#1000" },
    { "id": 5, "give": "chest:Gold#1" },
    { "id": 7, "give": "Diamonds#500", "cost": "Gold#20000" }
  ]
}

Names resolve against the csv tables. cost is optional; without it the server charges the same price the client computes from the game data.
