Re: [Rails-devel] Settong Erie home base during green upgrade

[Mark S. <mar...@gm...>]

Stumbled on the bug I updated in City class when I was testing out placing a
Token in 1851 for L&N on the 2nd City of L&N Home Hex. The code allowed it
to happen, although the rules specifically state:

No more than one Station Marker of any Corporation may be placed in any hex.

Note, in 1851 it asks which city you want to place the token on BEFORE it
then responds with "Tile {X} already has a base token of company {Y}". When
it should really state this before it gives you a choice of cities.

Is there any 18xx Game that allows one company to place multiple
Tokens/Stations on the same Hex? If so, there will need some more updates to
accommodate.

Also still see the ability for a Token to be placed on a hex that has "no
tile" placed on it. Still the background color.
