Changes to Empire 4.3.22 - Sat Apr 25 11:56:29 UTC 2009
* Fix a Windows client bug that could lead to hangs, at least with
some versions of the C run-time. Broken in 4.3.11.
* Allow building without curses terminfo. Highlighting in the client
doesn't work then.
* Really fix bomb not to wipe out plane updates made while it asked
for pinpoint targets. The fix in 4.3.21 didn't cover escorts.
* Fix tend land not to wipe out concurrent updates.
* Fix a bug in automatic supply:
- Ships with just two shells could fire a torpedo to return fire or
interdict.
- Ships with just one shell could use their anti-missile defense.
- Land units were considered in supply even when they had not quite
enough supplies. Such land units could defend without penalty,
attack and react.
Broken in 4.3.20.
* Fix update to take dead units off carriers.
* Standalone client distribution built empire instead of empire.exe
for Windows. Broken in 4.3.0.
* Fix client to abort script execution on SIGINT.
* Fix Windows client not to hang on EOF on standard input when that
is a tty.
* Fix a client bug that could make it hang when EOF on standard input
follows an execute command closely.
* Seamines under bridge spans were disabled a long time ago, in
Empire 2. The drop command refuses to mine there. Change mine
command to do so as well.
* Seamines under bridge spans were mistaken for landmines by ground
combat, land units retreating from bombs, and non-land unit ground
movement.
* When a bridge tower collapsed, its landmines magically became
seamines.
* Don't log out player when he interrupts a command. Broken in
4.3.19.
* Code cleanup and portability improvements.
* Info file and documentation fixes.
Changes to Empire 4.3.21 - Mon Mar 9 21:34:52 UTC 2009
* Fix swapsector not to wipe out concurrent changes to the swapped
sectors.
* Fix a bug in crash dumping that could mess up the journal and, at
least in theory, mess up commands info, read, turn, and wire;
announcement expiry, and reading of econfig and schedule.
* Fix bomb not to wipe out plane updates made while it asked for
pinpoint targets.
* When bombing ships with a force containing both planes with and
without capability ASW, the bomb command could fail to report
presence of submarines, and could refuse to bomb ships when there

* Fix crash bug in emp_config parsing.
* Fix buffer overruns in turn and shutdown.
* Fix second argument of shutdown.
* tele and turn now abort on EOF.
* announce, pray, telegram and turn now abort on EOF.
* Fix display of MOTD and game down message of maximum size.
* Correctly support telnet line termination on input. Previously,
carriage returns could slip into ship names and such.
