Everytime A diplomat is played, my game crashes.

This happened just recently. So I couldn't find the newest download to freeciv so I would just play on web today. Basically everytime I needed and used a diplomat, the game failed to load anything. I would press end turn, or try to move another unit and nothing would respond. I tried 2 games with it, then found out in my third game I had saved. Basically here is what happen.
Writing is researched.
I create diplomat in a city. (usually with a library but sometimes not)
I send the diplomat.
Diplomat moves correctly
Diplomat interacts with enemy city
I select an option
Game is unresponsive.

Also, I can select units but it won't move them and I can't change city stuff. Pressing turn done simply doesn't work.

Ops, using diplomats will crash Freeciv-web. Sorry about that. I will try to fix it as soon as possible.

www.freeciv.org has links to downloads near the top ("Where is Freeciv?")

Andreas: Has play.freeciv.org been updated today so that commit 99c963e2bc51ac55d3ccd4eae5c48a0069f48930 is included? It contained some diplomat changes due to freeciv server changes.

Yes, updated today. I think the crash is due to diplomat_id which was changed to actor_id. I'll fix it.

There are more changes coming in this area. I'll try to keep freeciv-web updated. Would (clearly marked) untested pull requests be useful in case I'm unable to set up a freeciv web environment on the computer I currently have access to that don't shut down because of overheating?

Great sveinung! clearly marked untested pull requests would be great. Even better would be if you could make direct commits to github of tested changes. I would be glad to help you solve any problems you might have with setting up Vagrant.
