+Changes to Empire 4.3.25 - Tue Mar 16 20:40:54 UTC 2010
+ * Missile exploding on launch could not damage its base if it was
+ armed with a nuke. Broken in 4.3.23.
+ * When a torpedo attack triggered a return torpedo, the news reported
+ it to be fired by the attacker instead of the defender.
+ * Interdiction attacked submarines with surface-only weapons. Broken
+ in 4.3.24.
+ * Fix a bug in lradar, path, radar, route, satellite, sect and survey
+ that could leak maps to other players. Broken in 4.2.0. Fixed in
+ 4.2.8 for bmap, lbmap, lmap, map, nmap, pbmap, pmap, sbmap and smap
+ only.
+ * files could clobber the game when reading confirmation fails.
+ * fairland no longer rejects small worlds without trying.
+
+Changes to Empire 4.3.24 - Tue Jan 26 21:29:14 UTC 2010
+ * The client sometimes hung under Windows when the server closed the
+ connection. Broken in 4.3.23.
+ * Fix navigate and march not to crash the server when a path argument
+ consists of a valid path plus whitespace. Broken in 4.3.7.
+ * When a client sent a blank line in the login phase, the server
+ crashed on some systems.
+ * Fix crash bug in bomb, drop, fly, paradrop, recon and sail. Broken
+ in 4.3.16.
+ * Fix bogus internal error on escort, recon, and satellite launch.
+ Mostly harmless, as error recovery worked fine. Broken in 4.3.23.
+ * Stop ship and land unit movement on interdiction even when it does
+ no damage.
+ * When an interdiction did no or only collateral damage, the planes
+ that intercepted it from interdicted carriers used no petrol, and
+ interdicted land units were immune to collateral damage.
+ * The limit for the number of sectors, ships, planes, land units,
+ nukes, and so forth is now large enough not to matter. It used to
+ be 32768 on common machines. The sector limit was introduced in
+ 4.3.12. World x- and y-size are still limited to 65536 on common
+ machines.
+ * News use much less space, and thus I/O. Space was wasted in
+ 4.3.12. Side effects of the change:
+ - Expiry of old news no longer updates news timestamps. Updating
+ timestamps was wrong, because it defeated incremental xdump news.
+ - The empdump utility can no longer update timestamps of imported
+ news. Unfortunate, as it breaks incremental xdump news.
+ * New news selector duration, the time span covered by this news item
+ in seconds.
+ * ABMs failed to charge supplies when their sector was the
+ intercepted missile's target. The stock game's ABMs use no
+ supplies.
+ * Ship anti-missile defense failed to charge shells when the ship was
+ the missile's target.
+ * Code refactoring and cleanup.
