Reflash changelog
All notable changes to Reflash are documented here. This project adheres to Semantic Versioning.
[1.0.0] - 2026-07-29
Section titled “[1.0.0] - 2026-07-29”First release. Reflash rebuilds the seven apps on the in game phone as web pages and serves them to a real phone on your network, so the phone in your pocket shows the phone in the game while the game keeps the whole monitor.
- Connect, on the in game phone. Turn the companion on there, scan the QR code with a phone camera, and that phone opens the same home screen with the same icons in the same order. The address is printed as text under the code as well, because a QR code on a stream or across a room is often unreadable. Up to four devices, one code each.
- The seven apps, on the second screen. Messages with the thread, the replies and the deal window’s clock; the map with the real map picture and its pins; deliveries with stock, prices and an order you can place; products with their effects in the game’s own colours; dealers with region, cut and how full their hands are; contacts with the relationship graph and a customer’s standards, dependence and orders; and the journal with the quests the game would show you.
- Nothing is reimplemented. Every number is read from the manager the vanilla screen reads, and every
action goes through the same
[ServerRpc(RequireOwnership = false)]the vanilla screen calls, so co-op behaves as it always did and a balancing patch reaches these screens on its own. - A switch for the in game phone. Off by default: the seven icons still open the game’s own screens and
Reflash adds one icon and nothing else. Use these apps here too in the Connect app puts the
replacements on the icons instead, without a restart, and puts them back the same way. Also
ReplaceVanillaAppsinMelonPreferences.cfg. - Built for a phone you hold. Full screen on the first tap with the Android back gesture wired to the phone’s own back, the screen kept awake while an app is open, a short buzz on a press that did something, finger panning with momentum on the map and the graph, pinch to zoom, and a layout that follows the real screen instead of assuming one.
- One bundle, two worlds. The same files run in the game and in the browser: the server injects a
<base>, a compatibility stylesheet and the bridge into the<head>on the way out and never touches the file on disk. An override folder underMods/reflash-<app>/replaces a stylesheet on both screens at once.
Security
Section titled “Security”- The companion is off until you press the button, so installing the mod opens no port.
- An unpaired device can read
/healthand nothing else - not the number of connected devices, not a name. - Pairing needs the code on screen: 96 random bits, two minutes or one use, burnt either way, with a lockout after repeated wrong guesses.
- A paired device holds an
HttpOnly/SameSite=Strictcookie, there are no CORS headers anywhere, and theHostheader is checked against the addresses the server really answers on. - Plain HTTP, unavoidably: a browser will not let an
httpspage reach a LAN address and there is no certificate for192.168.x.x. It is a screen on your own network, not something to forward through a router.
