[Rails-devel] Screen messages

[Erik V. <eri...@hc...>]

I have committed stuff around messages to be displayed during the game.
For now, during the OR only. Aspects are:

1. A new, low line near the top of the OR Window, in which one-line messages
are displayed
about what the player can do at each moment in the game. Currently, this
message line
disappears between token laying and train buying; I don't understand why,
but that will no doubt be sorted out in due time.

2. The messages are internationalised by defining these in a
language-dependent
properties file. The default file is LocalisedText.properties. Versions for
any
language/country can be added with names like LocalisedText_en_US.properties
or LocalisedText_fr.properties.
In the code, localised messages can be obtained by calling
Game.getText(messageKey).

3. Messages about special properties that can be exercised will be added
later,
I propose in a somewhat lighter colour.

4. The tile and token laying steps are now explicitly defined (in HexMap),
and the messages are directly related to these steps. The code is somewhat
reorganised around these steps.
