civ2 ruleset and isohex map topology

[bluerain88]

Hi, I'm a non-native speaker and a newbie to this game, so please forgive my mistakes.

When I chose the civ2 ruleset, the map topology was changed to isohex. Isn't it supposed to be isometric, like in Civilization II? Do I need to change the server options myself?

Which freeciv version?

Likely the client requests hex topology because there's a hex tileset in use there, and the tileset is in this case considered authoritative source of what user (you) have requested the topology to be.
