Seems that Civ III is somewhat more civilized about this. What I really don't like about fc is the hyper aggressive settler attacks from 'allies' so the ability to reject ANY unit would be a welcome relief. Comments about 'right of passage' have come up before - is this in addition to alliance or in...

Change the [extra_railroad] reqs vector to NOW read: reqs = { "type", "name", "range", "present" "Tech", "Railroad", "Player", TRUE "Extra", "Road", "Local", TRUE "Extra", "Roadonly&quo...

For those who want to have the rules for railroad on city center tiles as it is in Civ I. Add the following two sections to terrain.ruleset [extra_no_rr] name = _("Roadonly") category = "Natural" causes = "Base" graphic = "None" graphic_alt = "-" act...

Can anyone spell out exactly what happens in any of the commercial games? Freeciv often has its own ideas and equally often they are idiomatic sometimes to the point of being idiotic. I personally think the interaction between expanding borders and "peace" falls into this last category. Th...

As I understand, we should play here with the action enabler for "Road", not with extra reqs. Not quite sure what you mean here. I presume something in fc3.0. I'm assuming fc2.6.x - i.e. simple ruleset fixes for fc2.6. More permanent long term changes are another matter. As for fc2.6 I tr...

Railroad on city center (reprise). Removing the 'auto on' field does not prevent settlers from adding railroad after the city is founded (or before for that matter). As an alternative to prevent this, one could change the entire reqs vector for railroad in the section [extra_railroad] in terrain.rul...

35. In terrain.ruleset for [Extra_*], the comments read: ; category = How UI should categorize this extra. One of ; "Infra", "Natural", "Nuisance", or "Bonus" NQR. This is more than just a documentation problem. My (superficial) assessment is as follows: A. A ...

I still don't think that clearing a way for a missile with fighters or anything among land forces that can't reach it is plausible, from realism or gaming scope either. I had in mind a quick fix gaming technique - mostly because of slow development time in mainstream fc. As for something more perma...

Further developments. The slow startup time with civ2civ3 has let me look into this in more detail. The case appears to be that ruleset startup processing is quite distinct for initial ('default') and subsequent rulesets: a. for the initial startup the ruleset name is hardcoded (I presume in the cli...

Road always on city center. Place (or replace) the following into script.lua in the civ1 ruleset: -- nef 2018/12/5 -- This lua script provides the feature in Civilization (Civ I) whereby -- a city when razed pillages all improvements on the city center tile. -- This defeats the exploit of getting a ...
