Purpose of this PR:

Fixes truncated VR/BR values on the Friends page. The friends list read these values directly from rksys.dat, where Retro Rewind stores them divided by 100 (e.g. 29367 → 293), while WheelWizard stores full points. Both formats end up mixed in the same field, so many friends were shown without their last two digits.

The UI now overrides those values with accurate ratings, using in this order:

  1. Live rooms: exact VR and BR for online friends.
  2. RWFC API (/api/leaderboard/player/{friendCode}): exact VR for offline friends. The API does not provide BR.
  3. rksys.dat: fallback. BR values in the game's format are rescaled ×100.

How to Test:

  1. Have friends in your list whose VR/BR has been updated by the game.
  2. Open the Friends page.
  3. VR should show the full value (matching rwfc.net) after the API responds (a few seconds at most).
  4. BR should show a full value. The last 2 digits are lost due to RWFC API not supporting BR on player data.
  5. For an online friend, VR or BR should match the value shown in the room they are currently playing in (either one depending if it's VS or Battle Mode).

What Has Been Changed:

  • PlayerProfileBase.cs: Vr/Br are now settable and raise PropertyChanged, so the UI can override the rksys values shown at start.
  • FriendsPage.axaml.cs:
    • ApplyAccurateRatings: applies live room data, then cached API VR, then last known live BR, before sorting.
    • FetchApiVrAsync: fetches missing VRs from the RWFC API sequentially, caches results for 5 minutes (failures too), and refreshes the list.
  • GameLicenseService.cs: FriendBrFromRksys rescales friend BR read from rksys.dat. 5000 is kept as-is, since it's the only value WheelWizard writes. Values up to 10000 (1,000,000 / 100) are multiplied by 100.

Known limitations:

  • BR for friends not seen online during the session still loses its last two digits (e.g. 5137 → 5100), since no other source provides it.
  • A real BR of exactly 500,000 written by the game would be shown as 5000.
  • The API VR cache and the live BR cache are in-memory only.

Related Issue Link: #488

Further development:

This implementation can be improved to provide exact BR using the RWFC API, but it would require BR values to be stored on the player leaderboard data, which is not a feature of rwfc.net at the moment.
Player data can be checked at https://rwfc.net/api/leaderboard/player/1234-5678-9012 (use desired friend code)

Summary by CodeRabbit

Summary

  • New Features
    • Friends’ VR and BR ratings now reflect available live player data, with cached ratings retained when friends go offline.
    • Missing VR ratings can be retrieved from the API. Results are cached temporarily to reduce repeat requests.
    • Ratings refresh in the friends list as friend and live-room data changes.
    • Battle Ratings from game data are converted for display when applicable.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds friend rating conversion and resolution from live room data and API profiles. It makes profile VR and BR updates observable, registers a rating service, and connects rating refreshes to the Friends page.

Changes

Friend Rating Resolution

Layer / File(s) Summary
Observable rating properties
WheelWizard/Features/WiiManagement/GameLicense/Domain/PlayerProfileBase.cs, WheelWizard.Test/Features/PlayerProfileBaseTests.cs
VR and BR are settable properties. Changing either value raises a property-change notification; assigning the same value does not.
Rating conversion rules
WheelWizard/Features/WiiManagement/GameLicense/FriendRatingResolver.cs, WheelWizard/Features/WiiManagement/GameLicense/GameLicenseService.cs, WheelWizard.Test/Features/FriendRatingResolverTests.cs
The resolver converts rksys BR values and accepts only positive API VR values. Friend parsing uses the BR conversion. Tests cover conversion boundaries and null or non-positive API VR.
Live and cached rating resolution
WheelWizard/Features/WiiManagement/GameLicense/FriendRatingResolver.cs, WheelWizard.Test/Features/FriendRatingResolverTests.cs
The resolver applies live ratings, retains live BR values, uses cached API VR, and returns friend codes that need API requests. Tests cover live, offline, pending, failed, expired-cache, and unmatched-friend cases.
Rating service and Friends page integration
WheelWizard/Features/WiiManagement/GameLicense/FriendRatingService.cs, WheelWizard/Features/WiiManagement/WiiManagementExtensions.cs, WheelWizard/Views/Pages/FriendsPage.axaml.cs, WheelWizard.Test/Features/FriendRatingServiceTests.cs
The service fetches and stores API ratings and raises a change event. The Friends page refreshes ratings from active friends and live players, and updates its list after service or live-room updates.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 8d873

Friends may show truncated VR for five minutes after a failed refresh, even when a correct value was previously available. Preserve the last good VR before merging.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 8d873

Automatic rating lookups can send the selected license’s stored friend codes to the rating service, including codes that were not individually looked up during this session. Requests are limited to the friend list and do not grant new privileges, but the privacy change merits review.

Retained concerns

  • Medium · security · inferred: Displaying the Friends page now initiates external profile lookups for eligible stored friend codes, including pending friend entries. The resulting sequence of requests may disclose part of the selected license’s friend roster to the existing API without a separate lookup action for each entry.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The new network exposure is bounded on the inspected page path to eligible codes in one selected license’s friend list, normally at most 30. It sends individual friend-code requests, not the license file; an arbitrary caller of the public Refresh method is not independently constrained to that list.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — Viewing the page can cause stored friend identifiers, including pending entries, to cross from local license data to the profile API. The receiver may correlate requests by client and timing; backend retention and correlation behavior were not established.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Background requests use non-empty codes supplied by friend profiles; live-room data can supply ratings for matching codes but cannot itself add API targets. Pending suppression, five-minute result caching, and a request semaphore limit repeat traffic and concurrency. The resolver does not revalidate code format or friend-list membership.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • inferred — The service catches ordinary lookup failures and records them as cached null results, but its background request sequence has no cancellation tied to page unload. That limits the page’s ability to stop already-queued disclosures after its UI lifecycle ends.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Consider an explicit policy for automatic profile lookups, including whether pending friends should be queried, and a way to cancel queued lookups when the initiating page or selected license changes.

so a matching player’s BR is applied and cached independently of whether VR is
present. Resolve missing VR separately using the existing API or cached
fallback, preserving the current behavior for available live values.
- Around line 42-45: Update the live rating handling in FriendRatingResolver so
nonpositive VR and BR values are treated as unavailable: do not overwrite an
existing usable rating or cache zero, and allow VR to continue to the API
fallback. Preserve the existing behavior for positive live ratings.
- Line 76: Update FriendRatingResolver’s _apiVrCache handling so a failed
refresh records its retry time separately without replacing the last
successfully resolved VR with null; preserve the five-minute failure cooldown
while allowing subsequent license reloads to reuse the last good VR.

In `@WheelWizard/Views/Pages/FriendsPage.axaml.cs`:
- Around line 138-139: Update FetchApiVrAsync so successful friend-code results
refresh the displayed friend list as they complete, rather than waiting until
the sequential batch ends; use per-result or bounded-batch refreshes while
retaining the six-second request timeout behavior.

…scaling

VR/BR data saved in rksys.dat stores values dividing them by 100, so the friends list never got to display the last 2 digits of any VR correctly.

This fix now overrides the values in the UI with accurate ratings using, in this order:
1.- live rooms (VR/BR for online friends)
2.- RWFC API (VR only, BR not supported)
3.- rksys scaling (BR, needs to be rescaled to account for the 2 digits lost at the end)
Added new class called FriendRatingResolver to cover for the VR/BR truncation bug fix
Made relevant tests for bug fix
