I like to play as the same leader name and country every time, and am annoyed that I have to select them every time. It would be nice if, when you you start a new game, those choices were stored in the freeciv-client-rc-3.x file and appeared as default values when you start your next game. There is ...

I'm updating my custom ruleset "dino" to 3.1 and have found I can use it to crash the client. My game.ruleset contains [tileset] preferred="dino" which loads the "dino.tilespec" file. That file contains for_ruleset = "dino" All this is patterned after what the...

Sorry I disappeared, had some medical issues that made it difficult to use a computer, but now I'm somewhat back. To DavidN - I'm not surprised it didn't work for you, my version was built on MacOS 11 and you have MacOS 14 and Apple is notorious for no backward compatibility. I have revised the wiki...
