Changes to Empire 4.2.17 - Sat Aug 14 19:53:12 UTC 2004
* Fix seeding of PRNG under Windows. The bug made updates occur at
a predictable time in the update window. From Ron Koenderink.
* Close major loophole in drop that allowed players to determine
whether an arbitrary sector is sea, allied land, or other land.
* fly could fly civilians into occupied or allied sectors. drop
could drop them into allied sectors. For consistency with other
means to move around stuff, both is no longer possible.
* Don't allow flying to a carrier that doesn't have space for the
planes. Previously, planes that did this were teleported home,
which could be abused.
* Close loophole in bomb that allowed players to find all
sanctuaries.
* Fix move and explore not to crash when moving civilians to a sector
without civilians, and interdiction destroys them all. Found and
debugged by Jeff Cotter.
* Fix printing of messages entered with turn command. '%' characters
could cause havoc, even crashes.
* Use sector's actual maximum population to compute chance of plague
outbreak. Previously, code used 9999 for big cities and 999 for
other sectors, and info Plague said 999. This makes all crowded
sectors equally vulnerable, even mountains, plains, and inefficient
big cities.
* Oil derricks no longer drill and deplete more oil than they can
hold.
* Version 4.2.15's coordinate and list parsing fixes reject trailing
junk. That's too strict. Silently ignore trailing junk as long as
it starts with whitespace.
* Version 4.2.15's selector rewrite broke some type literals,
e.g. `?des=n' was interpreted as `?des=newdes'. Change to prefer
type literals to selectors.
* Nightly build patches game to get repeatable PRNG results. From
Marc Olzheim.

used for sector construction.
