Frame Data & General data corrections

Frame Data corrections need to be fixed via our team's spreadsheet. We don't directly edit the JSON file. Please report any and all frame data mistakes in our discord channel. The same goes for the Combos & Moveslist section.

Developing for FAT

FAT is an Ionic React app built with Capacitor. You'll need npm to get going and then

Setup

npm install

You'll need the Ionic CLI

npm install -g @ionic/cli

Run

To run the project in your browser do

ionic serve

To build the project with Capacitor do

ionic build

// android or ios
ionic cap sync android

To open the project in Android Studio you can do

ionic cap open android

This requires you to point Capacitor at the location of your Android Studio installation. You can set this up by adding/editing local.properties in ./android. For example

sdk.dir=/home/you/location/of/Android/Sdk

Deployment

Add a new version log and bump the 3 constants at the top of the page to the correct values in src/js/constants/VersionLogs.js. Also adjust the FrameData and GameDetails codes as required.

If previously remote fetched characters have been moved to the local build, be sure to remove their remoteImage Boolean from the sheet

Because it's Capacitor, you'll need to build for iOS and Android in XCode and Studio respectively.

Alternatively you can deploy the apps using fastlane, as laid out below

Deploying to the web is just a matter of setting the homepage with the following command

ionic build --prod --public-url=/fatonline

iOS App Store

Deployment of the iOS app can only be done by the core developers who have access to the team's Apple Developer account

Deployment of release builds on iOS is done using Fastlane. To use this, you will need to follow Fastlane's setup docs. Once you've done this, follow these steps to get set up:

• Copy ios/App/fastlane/.env.sample to ios/App/fastlane/.env and replace it with the actual values from the Apple Developer site
• Download the existing metadata with fastlane deliver download_metadata
• Download the existing screenshots with fastlane deliver download_screenshots --use_live_version true

Once you have all this set up, you can release a new version:

• Increase the version number in Xcode
• Update the changelog in ios/App/fastlane/metadata/en-US/release_notes.txt
• Run npm run ios:release

Google Play Store

Deployment of the Google Play app can only be done by the core developers who have access to the team's Google Developer account

Deployment of release builds on Google Play is done using Fastlane. To use this, you will need to follow Fastlane's setup docs. Once you've done this, follow these steps to get set up:

• Copy android/fastlane/.env.sample to android/fastlane/.env and replace it with the actual values from the Google Developer site etc.
• Download the metadata with bundle exec fastlane supply init

Once you have all this set up, you can release a new version:

• Bump the versionCode and versionName in android/app/build.gradle
• Update the changelog in android/fastlane/metadata/android/en-GB/changelogs/VERSIONNUMBER.txt
• Run npm run android:release

Adding a new game

Changes to ./src/js/actions/index.ts

• Import the framedataJSON
• Dispatch the frame data in getFrameData()
• If the game requires state switchers (like VT) amend setPlayer()
• Import the gamedetailsJSON
• Dispatch the game details in getGameDetails()

General Changes

• Add the menu Radio in src/js/components/Menu.tsx
• Set up the Game Details in src/js/constants/GameDetails.ts
• Add to type GameName in src/js/types/index.ts
• Add to type VtState in src/js/types/index.ts

Updatable Game (if the game is going to receive server updates)

• Add to the UDPATABLE_GAMES and UPDATABLE_GAMES_APP_CODES obj in src/js/constants/VersionLogs.ts
