Upgrading units?

Post by Corbeau »

Can units be upgraded in this ruleset?

If yes, put it into help? Also, automatic technical information about units would be helpful such as "capturable" etc.

Since a partial answer is better than no answer:

The multiplayer ruleset has now been added to the list of rulesets Freeciv-web's build process extracts Freeciv's automatic unit type and government help texts from. (I don't know when this change will appear on play.freeciv.org)

I plan on a release of Freeciv-web to production once the memory leak issues are under control.

A Gtk-client like "Obsole by" field has been added to the unit type help.

The latest version of Freeciv-web has now been released to the production server.

You won't see an upgrade button to click, but you can upgrade by pressing 'u' when the relevant unit is selected. However, there seems to be a few kinks. For example, my Leonardo's Workshop upgraded all my workers to engineers, one by one - but I couldn't manually upgrade them. I then simply got the error message that there were no relevant upgrades for the self-same workers that Leonardo's Workshop upgraded.
