You can change the rules and the look.

MadMAX: It could be hard to port it to the desktop SDL2/OGL? WebGL is based on OGL:ES and JavaScript have not far, but less similar syntax to C. The main difficulty is that different tilesets would need to be supported. The JS implementation is also far from optimal and will be slow on large maps o...

In the classic rules, AEGIS cruisers should help for coastal cities. Land cities can't be protected AFAIK.

I don't know why Debian has used such an deviation from their usual package naming conventions, but one gets qt5 development files by installing 'qt5-default'. qt5-default doesn't install any header; the -dev package is qtbase5-dev. qt5-default makes Qt 5 the system-wide default (for qmake & fr...

in my localisation have troubles. Anytime all hotkeys disappear completely. Nothing helps. At least switch EN/RU, even back to... Only restart freeciv. Why?

Just not fast enough.) I have ported 7kaa to the web. 7kaa uses many nested loops, so porting was a real proble...

Freeciv is written in C, which is a programming language suited for native apps. On the Web, however, only one language is allowed: Javascript. Before you even think about running a program in a browser, you need to translate it to Javascript. Doing this by hand for the roughly 50,000 lines of code ...
