A: JavaScript, the only dependency is fastify.

Q: I do [something] but my progress is not saved, why?
A: The server operates in stateless mode.

Q: What does stateless mode mean?
A: It means that for most methods, the changes are not preserved. To improve the gameplay experience, there are a few exceptions:

• user data such as login name, etc.
• gameUser data such as M-Girl on homescreen, background, comment, etc.
• userDeck data with user-defined decks.
• userQuestBattleResult data which allows playing quests.
• Patrols subsystem works on shared basis rather than per-user.

All of these are preserved in memory only, i.e. changes can be wiped after timeout or server restart.

Q: What is required for persistent storage?
A: Async node:sqlite/promises API.

Q: What are differences between this APK and the one from Google Play?
A: The client part is basically magiatranslate using different servers.

Q: Where do I find history of scenario translations and credits for the translators?
A: The current scenario translations are in the Puella-Care/en-download repository.
All previous contributions were made to the MagiaTranslate project, and can be found in the kamihama/magia-assets repository.

Q: Why can I play auto and x3 speed in battles that should not have it?
A: QoL improvement.

Q: How do I import my account data?
A: If you have account backup made with latest version of connect, it might be possible in the future.

A: The prologue story can be found in the archive. The tutorial battles are not accessible at the moment.

Q: The texts are in Japanese, how to read?
A: Contribute to the translation overlay to make them show in English.

Q: The texts are in English, is there a Japanese version?
A: It might come in the future.

Q: Is there any region restriction or country code?
A: No.

Q: Why only a few events are available?
A: Event availability is limited to the data collected. If you have data for more events, feel free to share.

Q: There were changes to the web overlays, but I don't see them ingame, how to fix?
A: Clear app cache (do not clear all data).

Q: Why are enemy waves in quest battles always constant?
A: The data is limited and wave generation is difficult to implement in efficient way.

Q: Why is the total power of arena deck not calculated properly?
A: Performance considerations: user arena matches are generated synchronously, whereas retrieving the actual arena deck must be done asynchronously.

A: Play Madoka Magica Magia Exedra
