(feed_ship, feed_land): Use it. (do_feed): Use it. Estimate of food needed was one too large for integer food needs. Used to round fractional food need to nearest instead of up for supply_commod(), which could cause starvation. (s_commod, get_minimum): Use it. Estimate of food needed was one too large for integer food needs. s_commod() used to reserve one more than get_minimum() would have returned; it's now the same. (famine_victims): New. (feed_people): Use it. This rounds victim fractions down instead of up. It also dosn't flush needs <=1 to zero. Doesn't change starvation, as do_feed() always produces at least one emergency food. Does change food consumption. (starve_some): New. (feed_people): Use it. (feed_ship): Use feed_people(). This rounds victim fractions down instead of up. (feed_land): Use feed_people(). Rounding of victim fractions unchanged. Feeds all people not just mil; closes #913997. (starv_people): New. (starv_sects, starv_ships, starv_units): Use it. Fixes starve land to talk about people instead of mil. (starv_sects): Use famine_victims() rather than feed_people(). Take emergency food into account, because feed_people() doesn't. Don't aim for one extra food, for consistency with starv_ships() and starv_units(). (feed_people): Remove useless parameter. Simplify. (starv_ships, starv_ships): Use famine_victims() rather than feed_ship() and feed_land(). (feed_ship, feed_land): Remove useless parameters. Internal linkage. Simplify. (feed_land): Call resupply_commod() only if there's a food shortage. Don't scrounge lnd_ship for food, resupply_commod() already does. |

Welcome to Empire 4, code-named Wolfpack.
Empire is a multi-player, client/server Internet based war game.

This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License (in file
`COPYING'), or (at your option) any later version.
See file `CREDITS' for a list of contributors.
Directory `doc' has additional information. File `doc/README'
describes the files there and what they talk about.
To build the server and set up a game, follow the steps below.
(1) Unpacking the source tree
If you downloaded a tarball, unpack it.
If you're pulling from CVS, check out and run bootstrap. This
requires Autoconf and Automake to be installed.
(2) Building a server
Requirements: GNU make and, ANSI C, a curses library, Perl, nroff
or GNU troff (`groff'), Bourne Shell and the common utilities.
See file `INSTALL' for detailed compilation and installation
instructions. Quick guide for the impatient: run configure; make;
make install. The last step is optional; everything runs fine
right from the build tree.
If make fails without doing anything, you're probably not using
GNU make. Some systems have it installed as `gmake'.
(3) Creating a game
* Create a configuration for your game. make install installs one
in $prefix/etc/empire/econfig ($prefix is /usr/local unless you
chose something else with configure). You can use pconfig to
create another one.
* Edit your configuration file. See doc/econfig for more
information.
Unless you put your configuration file in the default location
(where make install installs it), you have to use -e with all
programs to make them use your configuration.
* Run files to set up your data directory.
* Run fairland to create a world. For a sample world, try
`fairland 10 30'. This creates file ./newcap_script, which will
be used below. You can edit it to change country names and
passwords.
Check out fairland's manual page for more information.
* Start the server. For development, you want to run it with -d
in a debugger, see doc/debugging. Do not use -d for a real
game!
* Log in as deity POGO with password peter. This guide assumes
you use the included client `empire', but other clients should
work as well.
For help, try `info'.
To change the deity password, use `change re <password>'.
* Create countries with `exec newcap_script'.
Your game is now up!
Naturally, there's more to running a real game than that, but that's
beyond the scope of this file.
