+Changes to Empire 4.2.18 - Tue Sep 7 14:08:59 UTC 2004
+ * Fix info to accept abbreviated arguments under Windows. From Ron
+ Koenderink.
+ * Buying planes or land units loaded on something didn't work when
+ that something moved.
+ * Fix a bug that could produce update cascades with update policy
+ UDP_TIMES.
+ * Fix delivery and distribution to grant packing bonus only to
+ efficient sectors, just like move. Previously, delivery ignored
+ efficiency, and distribution behaved as if it were an efficient
+ sector without special bonuses.
+ * New sector selectors loyal, access; ship selectors radius, access,
+ xbuilt, ybuilt, builder, name; plane selectors radius, access,
+ theta; land unit selectors radius, react, nland, access; lost
+ selector id.
+ * Fix sector selectors che, che_target; plane selectors att, def;
+ nuke selector types; treaty selector exp; news selector time;
+ commodity selectors type, xbuy, ybuy.
+ * Option PLANENAMES is no longer optional.
+ * Ensure config parameter variables and their description in
+ configkeys[] are consistent. Inconsistencies there caused bugs in
+ the past. From Marc Olzheim.
+ * Complain if econfig file can't be read.
+ * Better messages for errors in econfig file.
+ * Remove unused econfig keys hard_tech and last_demand_update.
+ * New econfig key news_keep_days to configure news expiry.
+ * New econfig key anno_keep_days to configure announcement expiry.
+ * Fix announcement expiry. It leaked file descriptors and memory,
+ and could corrupt the anno file. From Ron Koenderink.
+ * New command xdump: experimental extended dump. Disabled for now.
+ * Bankers no longer round down debts, and they collect interest for
+ the time debtors are idling at sub-prompts.
+ * Loan interest calculation was broken at the due date and after a
+ last payment made at the due date. With luck, debtors could abuse
+ this to repay loans cheap (they couldn't gain cash, though), sharks
+ to purchase loans cheap, and creditors to collect excessively.
+ * Fix major bug in transport that allowed two cooperating countries
+ to duplicate items.
+ * Don't report interdiction damage twice when transporting planes.
+ * Fix message for attempting to transport a plane in a sector not
+ owned by the player.
+ * Fix confusing diagnostics when refusing to improve defense because
+ option DEFENSE_INFRA is off.
+ * Simplify confusing code in budget.
+ * Fix spacing in output of budget and show.
+ * Change one-way plane sorties to match ordinary sorties: offer
+ carriers regardless of the sector they're in, require carriers to
+ be efficient.
+ * Allow `realm #'.
+ * Don't print owner of incoming missile twice when intercepting it.
+ * Simplify constituent storage in product characteristics.
+ * Replace remaining `variables' leftovers; mainly in unit
+ characteristics.
+ * Remove leading spaces in deity unit dumps.
+ * Replace inappropriate uses of compile time constant ETUS by 60.
+ Deities don't change ETUS, they change etu_per_update by editing
+ econfig. This nonsense dates back at least to chainsaw 3.31.
+ * Change ship production (fishing and drilling for oil) to match
+ sector production. Ship efficiency and tech are now relevant, and
+ all people on board work. From Ron Koenderink.
+ * Code cleanups.
+ * Minor info file fixes.
