It's funny now, but I'm sure it's going to annoy me later. Maybe I'll surround it with fortifications.

Re: Strangest thing I've ever seen in FreeCiv
I'm afraid I'm a spoilsport and squashed this in 2.5.5: bug #24458.
Re: Strangest thing I've ever seen in FreeCiv
Ah! I must just missed getting 2.5.5. I updated on July 6th after not playing Freeciv for years.
Hmm... does the fix mean pirates won't spawn even in a huge lake? Not that I've ever seen a huge lake, but then I haven't made maps which might have huge lakes since lakes existed...

Re: Strangest thing I've ever seen in FreeCiv
In generated maps, lakes are small by definition -- how they are generated is that any generated sea of 14 tiles or fewer is turned into a lake.
A hand-designed scenario could have a huge lake, and yes, in that case pirates would not spawn there.

Oh that'll be all right for me, then.

Re: Strangest thing I've ever seen in FreeCiv
Yeah. It can't happen any more, as JTN said. It didn't appear until quite late in the game, it wasn't long before I could build fighter planes, so I got rid of it with a fighter. My other option was building a city next to it, and building attack ships in that, athough now I think about it, I don't even know if ships can attack from cities. I haven't had the situation arise in Freeciv, that I remember. I played a lot years & years ago, it might have happened then, but in recent years I played Alpha Centauri until I got fed up with a really nasty bug -- transport ships would just vanish with all the units on board. I like to play maps with lots of ocean and the players all on different continents, so it was awful.
