^ I use Freeciv 2.6.4 which does not have that feature. It's only available from Freeciv 3.0 and later. I could add it as alternate method when Freeciv version is 3 or more though. EDIT: Now that I think about it, that might hinder the computer-controlled tribe from choosing a better defender -- sin...

The only consideration is that probably barbarians won't be properly unleashed before their onset turn. The onsetbarbs turn not yet having occurred doesn't prevent unleash barbarians via script, it''s just that they won't unleash automatically until that turn or after. But Lua can unleash them any ...

^ I don't know what types of stats other players track, but according to the Freeciv Lua Reference manual at https://freeciv.fandom.com/wiki/Lua_reference_manual#Unit_loss_reasons , if the unit is killed with reason "disbanded" then neither the unit's player nor the killer's player scores ...

AiTribesCityDefender Forces computer-controlled tribes to keep a unit in every city. If the only unit in a city moves out of the city, it is moved back into the city. If a city has no defender, one is created in the city, and payment in gold is extracted from the computer-controlled tribe -- even i...

Lua "Embark" script for Freeciv 2.6.4 or later is posted at the following link: viewtopic.php?p=109060#p109060

Embark allows land units to embark for sea travel. Position a land unit next to an Ocean or Deep Ocean tile, disband the unit, and a temporary boat will be created with a new land unit in the boat (the replacement of the disbanded unit.) After the replacement unit leaves the boat, the empty boat wi...

That could be simulated via Lua script. When a land unit is disbanded on a non-city land tile next to Ocean or Deep Ocean tile... Create an unhomed boat such as a galleon (that unit type has no attack, but for less movement points a trireme might be preferred) and record that Unit ID as value in a t...

FadingFootprints leaves a short trail of footprints on tiles as units move around. Very helpful in tracking enemy units, especially in fog. :lol: Various other updates, corrections, and minor changes to prior routines are all included in the attached, playable scenario file for Freeciv 2.6.4 or lat...

CursedTileUnitEffect is now merged into the prior post with CursedTile.
