Caveat: It might be possible that Defend_Bonus is only evaluated when attacking a city. I've never actually checked.

Something I noticed was that, with default settings, the research rate in the beginning far exceeds any possible production rate. That is to say, unless you're going for lots of gold to buy stuff and less research, most of the earlier parts of the tech tree are completely irrelevant. Maybe changing ...

There's one annoying problem I haven't been able to figure out how to fix: when a Glider carrying (say) Assault Troops is being towed by another aircraft, it can unload its troops without casting off, which allows the player to tow the Glider back to a city and re-use it. This isn't meant to be pos...

I can't see my own avatar either. Maybe the avatars got lost somewhere along the way during a reboot/upgrade/whatever of the forums? I'll try reuploading it.

EDIT: After a quick re-upload, looks like it's displayed again.

Currently (i.e. up to Freeciv 2.6, the current stable release), Windows builds are made against msys1, and only 32-bit binaries are available. There are (somewhat experimental) 64-bit Windows binaries occasionally being built and uploaded by cazfi over here (more info in this thread ). The plan is t...

On my (age-old) Ubuntu laptop, I was able to install the proper prebuilt libraries for all the GUI clients without needing to compile anything myself, so I'm afraid I can't help with that :/

GTK 3.22 and GTK 3 are, broadly speaking, two different things. Newer (as in, non-stable) Freeciv versions come with dedicated GTK3.22 client clode, but for older ones, you'll need a GTK3 installation that's not GTK3.22.

I believe they are no longer different continents. You should be able to middle-click (there might be some combination of shift-ctrl-alt-click that works as well, but it escapes me at the moment) to display various tile information; somewhere among that should be a continent ID. You could check if t...

However, I don't believe there is currently a means of requiring a server setting to have (or not have) some value, so it is only possible to either always allow it, or never allow it (or some more fine-grained conditions based on other things in the game), regardless of the killunhomed server sett...

In the current master (3.1+), the "change home city" action is already controlled by an action enabler; I believe the requirement that a unit must already have a home has been un-hardcoded. However, I don't believe there is currently a means of requiring a server setting to have (or not ha...
