RCWeb Invaders Control App
The RCWeb Invaders Control App (app/invaders-control) is the companion phone controller for the shared-screen Invaders viewer.

What it does
- Dedicated ship controls: Each phone controls one ship with left, right, and fire actions.
- Per-player HUD: The controller receives targeted updates for score, lives, round, rank, and moment-to-moment status.
- One-tap replay: A reset button can restart the shared campaign from the controller side.
How it works
- Presence registration: On connect, the controller announces itself to the
invaders viewer so a ship can be created for this client.
- State-based input: The controller continuously sends a compact movement and firing state to the viewer with
rc.sendFunctionCall.
- Viewer feedback loop: The viewer targets this specific controller client with
invadersControl.registerPlayer, invadersControl.updateState, and invadersControl.showPulse.
