## Data Model Mapping
### Role Information
#### ToU-stats Implementation
```csharp
// Storage
internal class PlayerRoleInfo
{
public string PlayerName { get; set; }
public string Role { get; set; } // Formatted string with colors
public int PlayerId { get; set; }
public string Platform { get; set; }
public PlayerStats Stats { get; set; }
}
// Population (from Role.RoleHistory)
foreach (var role in Role.RoleHistory.Where(x => x.Key == playerControl.PlayerId))
{
if (role.Value == RoleEnum.Crewmate)
{
playerRole += "Crewmate > ";
}
// ... hundreds of lines of if/else for each role
}
// Extraction (string parsing with regex)
private static string ExtractMainRole(string roleString)
{
var parts = roleString.Split('>');
for (int i = 0; i < parts.Length; i++)
{
if (parts[i].Contains("> RoleHistory = [];
// Population (automatic via MiraAPI)
GameHistory.RegisterRole(player, role);
// Extraction (direct access)
private static List ExtractRoleHistory(byte playerId)
{
var roles = new List();
foreach (var roleEntry in GameHistory.RoleHistory.Where(x => x.Key == playerId))
{
var role = roleEntry.Value;
// Skip ghost roles
if (role.Role is RoleTypes.CrewmateGhost or RoleTypes.ImpostorGhost)
continue;
roles.Add(ExtractRoleName(role));
}
return roles;
}
private static string ExtractRoleName(RoleBehaviour role)
{
var name = role.GetRoleName();
return StripColorTags(name);
}
```
**Key Differences:**
- ✅ ToU Mira: Type-safe role objects instead of strings
- ✅ ToU Mira: Automatic role registration via MiraAPI
- ✅ ToU Mira: No massive if/else chains
- ✅ ToU Mira: Built-in localization support
---
### Modifier Information
#### ToU-stats Implementation
```csharp
// Extraction from formatted role string
private static List ExtractModifiers(string roleString)
{
var modifiers = new List();
if (roleString.Contains("Giant")) modifiers.Add("Giant");
if (roleString.Contains("Button Barry")) modifiers.Add("Button Barry");
if (roleString.Contains("Aftermath")) modifiers.Add("Aftermath");
// ... 20+ more if statements
if (roleString.Contains("Satellite")) modifiers.Add("Satellite");
return modifiers;
}
```
#### ToU Mira Implementation
```csharp
// Direct access via MiraAPI modifier system
private static List ExtractModifiers(byte playerId)
{
var modifiers = new List();
var player = PlayerControl.AllPlayerControls.FirstOrDefault(x => x.PlayerId == playerId);
if (player == null) return modifiers;
var playerModifiers = player.GetModifiers()
.Where(x => x is TouGameModifier || x is UniversalGameModifier);
foreach (var modifier in playerModifiers)
{
modifiers.Add(modifier.ModifierName);
}
return modifiers;
}
```
**Key Differences:**
- ✅ ToU Mira: Direct API access instead of string parsing
- ✅ ToU Mira: Automatically includes all modifiers
- ✅ ToU Mira: No maintenance burden when adding new modifiers
- ✅ ToU Mira: Type-safe modifier objects
---
### Statistics Tracking
#### ToU-stats Implementation
```csharp
// Extracted from role object
var player = Role.GetRole(playerControl);
if (player != null)
{
playerStats.TotalTasks = player.TotalTasks;
playerStats.TasksCompleted = player.TotalTasks - player.TasksLeft;
playerStats.Kills = player.Kills;
playerStats.CorrectKills = player.CorrectKills;
playerStats.IncorrectKills = player.IncorrectKills;
playerStats.CorrectAssassinKills = player.CorrectAssassinKills;
playerStats.IncorrectAssassinKills = player.IncorrectAssassinKills;
}
// Then parsed from formatted string with regex
if (roleString.Contains("Tasks:"))
{
var tasksMatch = Regex.Match(roleString, @"Tasks: (\d+)/(\d+)");
if (tasksMatch.Success)
{
stats.TasksCompleted = int.Parse(tasksMatch.Groups[1].Value);
stats.TotalTasks = int.Parse(tasksMatch.Groups[2].Value);
}
}
```
#### ToU Mira Implementation
```csharp
// Direct access from GameHistory
private static PlayerStatsNumbers GetPlayerStats(byte playerId)
{
var stats = new PlayerStatsNumbers();
// From GameHistory.PlayerStats dictionary
if (GameHistory.PlayerStats.TryGetValue(playerId, out var playerStats))
{
stats.CorrectKills = playerStats.CorrectKills;
stats.IncorrectKills = playerStats.IncorrectKills;
stats.CorrectAssassinKills = playerStats.CorrectAssassinKills;
stats.IncorrectAssassinKills = playerStats.IncorrectAssassinKills;
}
// From GameHistory.KilledPlayers
stats.Kills = GameHistory.KilledPlayers.Count(x =>
x.KillerId == playerId && x.VictimId != playerId);
// From player data
var player = PlayerControl.AllPlayerControls.FirstOrDefault(x => x.PlayerId == playerId);
if (player != null)
{
stats.TotalTasks = player.Data.Tasks.Count;
stats.TasksCompleted = player.Data.Tasks.Count(x => x.Complete);
}
return stats;
}
```
**Key Differences:**
- ✅ ToU Mira: Centralized statistics dictionary
- ✅ ToU Mira: No regex parsing needed
- ✅ ToU Mira: Multiple data sources (GameHistory, player data)
- ✅ ToU Mira: More accurate kill tracking
---
### Team/Faction Determination
#### ToU-stats Implementation
```csharp
private static string DetermineWinningTeam(List localPlayerRoles)
{
var winners = localPlayerRoles.Where(p => IsPlayerWinner(p.PlayerName)).ToList();
if (!winners.Any()) return "Unknown";
var firstWinner = winners.First();
var role = ExtractMainRole(firstWinner.Role);
if (IsImpostorRole(role)) return "Impostors";
if (IsCrewmateRole(role)) return "Crewmates";
if (IsNeutralRole(role)) return "Neutrals";
return "Unknown";
}
private static bool IsImpostorRole(string role)
{
var impostorRoles = new[] { "Impostor", "Grenadier", "Janitor", ... };
return impostorRoles.Any(r => role.Contains(r));
}
private static bool IsCrewmateRole(string role)
{
var crewRoles = new[] { "Crewmate", "Altruist", "Engineer", ... };
return crewRoles.Any(r => role.Contains(r));
}
```
#### ToU Mira Implementation
```csharp
private static string DetermineWinningTeam()
{
// Use GameHistory.WinningFaction if available
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(GameHistory.WinningFaction))
{
return GameHistory.WinningFaction;
}
// Fallback: Check winner records
var winners = EndGamePatches.EndGameData.PlayerRecords.Where(x => x.Winner).ToList();
if (!winners.Any()) return "Unknown";
var firstWinner = winners.First();
return firstWinner.Team switch
{
ModdedRoleTeams.Crewmate => "Crewmates",
ModdedRoleTeams.Impostor => "Impostors",
ModdedRoleTeams.Neutral => "Neutrals",
ModdedRoleTeams.Custom => "Custom",
_ => "Unknown"
};
}
```
**Key Differences:**
- ✅ ToU Mira: Uses existing WinningFaction tracking
- ✅ ToU Mira: Type-safe team enum
- ✅ ToU Mira: No hardcoded role lists
- ✅ ToU Mira: Supports custom teams
---
## Integration Points
### Harmony Patch Integration
#### ToU-stats Implementation
```csharp
[HarmonyPatch(typeof(AmongUsClient), nameof(AmongUsClient.OnGameEnd))]
public class OnGameEndPatch
{
public static void Postfix(AmongUsClient __instance, EndGameResult endGameResult)
{
AdditionalTempData.clear();
foreach (var playerControl in PlayerControl.AllPlayerControls)
{
// Build player role info...
AdditionalTempData.playerRoles.Add(new AdditionalTempData.PlayerRoleInfo()
{
PlayerName = playerName,
Role = playerRole,
PlayerId = playerControl.PlayerId,
Platform = "PC",
Stats = playerStats
});
}
}
}
[HarmonyPatch(typeof(EndGameManager), nameof(EndGameManager.SetEverythingUp))]
public class EndGameManagerSetUpPatch
{
public static void Postfix(EndGameManager __instance)
{
// Skip HideNSeek
if (GameOptionsManager.Instance.CurrentGameOptions.GameMode == GameModes.HideNSeek)
return;
// Send to API (async)
_ = Task.Run(async () =>
{
await AdditionalTempData.SendGameDataToApi();
});
// Build UI...
// Delay clear to allow async task to copy data
_ = Task.Delay(1000).ContinueWith(_ => AdditionalTempData.clear());
}
}
```
#### ToU Mira Implementation
```csharp
// Existing patch - already builds EndGameData
[HarmonyPatch(typeof(AmongUsClient), nameof(AmongUsClient.OnGameEnd))]
[HarmonyPostfix]
public static void AmongUsClientGameEndPatch()
{
BuildEndGameData(); // Already populates EndGameData.PlayerRecords
}
// Modified patch - add export call
[HarmonyPatch(typeof(EndGameManager), nameof(EndGameManager.Start))]
[HarmonyPostfix]
public static void EndGameManagerStart(EndGameManager __instance)
{
// Existing UI code
BuildEndGameSummary(__instance);
// NEW: Trigger async export
if (GameOptionsManager.Instance.CurrentGameOptions.GameMode != GameModes.HideNSeek)
{
_ = GameStatsExporter.ExportGameDataBackground();
}
}
```
**Key Differences:**
- ✅ ToU Mira: Uses existing EndGameData infrastructure
- ✅ ToU Mira: No manual data collection needed
- ✅ ToU Mira: No delay/clear timing issues
- ✅ ToU Mira: Cleaner separation of concerns
---
## Data Persistence and Timing
### ToU-stats Approach
**Problem:** Data collected in `OnGameEnd`, but cleared before `SetEverythingUp` completes
**Solution:**
1. Copy data locally in async task
2. Delay clear by 1 second
3. Hope async task finishes copying in time
```csharp
public static async Task SendGameDataToApi()
{
// COPY data immediately
var localPlayerRoles = new List(playerRoles);
var localOtherWinners = new List(otherWinners);
// Process local copies...
}
// In EndGameManagerSetUpPatch
_ = Task.Delay(1000).ContinueWith(_ => AdditionalTempData.clear());
```
**Issues:**
- ⚠️ Race condition if export takes > 1 second
- ⚠️ Data duplication in memory
- ⚠️ Brittle timing dependency
### ToU Mira Approach
**Solution:** MiraAPI's EndGameData is persistent until next game
```csharp
private static bool ValidateExportData()
{
// Data remains available throughout export
if (EndGamePatches.EndGameData.PlayerRecords == null ||
EndGamePatches.EndGameData.PlayerRecords.Count == 0)
{
return false;
}
return true;
}
```
**Advantages:**
- ✅ No race conditions
- ✅ No data copying needed
- ✅ No timing dependencies
- ✅ Cleaner architecture
---
## Configuration Management
### ToU-stats Implementation
```csharp
private static async Task ReadApiConfig()
{
var config = new ApiConfig();
try
{
// Check game directory
var gameDirectory = Path.GetDirectoryName(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location);
var configFilePath = Path.Combine(gameDirectory, "ApiSet.ini");
if (!File.Exists(configFilePath))
{
// Check Documents/TownOfUs
var documentsPath = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments);
var towFolder = Path.Combine(documentsPath, "TownOfUs");
Directory.CreateDirectory(towFolder);
configFilePath = Path.Combine(towFolder, "ApiSet.ini");
}
if (File.Exists(configFilePath))
{
var lines = await File.ReadAllLinesAsync(configFilePath);
// Parse lines...
}
else
{
// Create default config
await File.WriteAllTextAsync(configFilePath, defaultConfig);
}
return config;
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
PluginSingleton.Instance.Log.LogError($"Error: {ex.Message}");
return config;
}
}
```
### ToU Mira Implementation
**Same approach, but with improvements:**
```csharp
public static async Task ReadConfigAsync()
{
var config = new ApiConfig();
try
{
// Use iterator pattern for search paths
foreach (var configPath in GetConfigSearchPaths())
{
if (File.Exists(configPath))
{
Logger.Info($"Reading config from: {configPath}");
var lines = await File.ReadAllLinesAsync(configPath);
config = ParseIniFile(lines);
return config;
}
}
// Create default in last search path
var defaultPath = GetConfigSearchPaths().Last();
await CreateDefaultConfigAsync(defaultPath);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Logger.Error($"Error reading config: {ex.Message}");
}
return config;
}
private static IEnumerable GetConfigSearchPaths()
{
yield return Path.Combine(GetGameDirectory(), ConfigFileName);
yield return Path.Combine(GetDocumentsPath(), "TownOfUs", ConfigFileName);
}
```
**Improvements:**
- ✅ Cleaner code structure
- ✅ Separated parsing logic
- ✅ Better error handling
- ✅ More maintainable
