Re: [Rails-devel] 1856 bridge/tunnel tokens

[Aliza P. <ali...@gm...>]

I have noticed all along that buying bridge/tunnel tokens had slightly
wrong text -- when company A buys a token from company B, the text
says "Buy token from company A".  However, the money moved correctly.

I'm attaching a savefile from a 1.1.1 game that is even worse -- the
bridge private was sold in to a major, but the tunnel company
evaporated with a 5 train.  I should be able to buy tunnel tokens from
the bank, but that is not shown as an option. I can still buy bridge
tokens with the money going to the company that formerly owned the
bridge private -- but the money should be going to the bank now.

The rule is:
If a player owns the bridge private, tokens may not be bought.
If a Company owns the bridge private, tokens may be bought, with money
going to the company
After the 5-train, tokens may be bought, with money going to the bank.

Also, it appears that rails implements a hard limit of 3 bridge
tokens.  This is a supportable reading of the rules, but it would be
good to document this somewhere.  (Many people, and That Other 18xx
Moderator, play with a rule that bridge and tunnel tokens are
infinite.)
