Re: [Rails-devel] Bugs fixed

Comments see below.


1. In the Map Display, Cincinati at the top of the board is cut off. I think
the whole position for 1851 is set too high in the Map Frame 

Correct. The problem is, that in the game as published the "A" row is the
row below Cincinnati. So I have given the Cincinnati hex the name "@18" as @
is the ASCII character below A. This works well, except that the map
placement code is not aware of this exception.
The best solution is, perhaps, to have the code create the map position and
window size based on the actual lowest and highest row and column values.
This is done in EWHexMap (and NSHexMap for the other hex orientation). The
map placement in its panel needs be refined anyway.

2. The L&N Starting Home Location in B16 should be the Northern City, not
the Southern City (based upon the board photo at:
http://boardgamegeek.com/image/126915?size=large.This can be fixed by
updating the CompanyManager.xml File under data/1851, line 38 (for the L&N
Public Company) to be <Home hex=B16", city="1"> 

Correct.

3. When attempting to step through the game, I started L&N and GM&O in OR 1,
in SR 2 I sold GM&O so that it's stock value was below L&N, then in OR 2,
L&N Ran first, after completing that run, GM&O was not given a chance to
operate at all.

Hmm, that is serious. I'll look at it later this week (if you haven't fixed
it before, of course...).
