4. During Stock rounds, a player's Autopass will be reset each time that a
share or certificate limit gets exceeded as a result of some action. I have
only tested this for the case of a presidency change, but it should work in
all cases.

5. In Operating rounds of games where companies can own their own shares,
the Treasury share trading step will be skipped if nothing can be traded. In
such cases, old saved files will have a mandatory 'Done' action. For
backwards compatibility, this 'Done' action will be catched and skipped in
such a case. I have tested the latter in a progressed 18EU game - I hope it
will work in all cases.

A few more changes:

1. Added reserved hexes facility, and applied to 18EU and 1825 maps. All
this facility does is displaying the reserved-for company name in square
brackets on the reserved hex (as long as no tiles are laid). Tile lays are
not actually prevented. 
2. Removed the "no train - no income" popup that annoys some people.
3. Allow >60% share ownership in certain cases, for the current Stock Round
only. Applied to 18EU mergers.

Bug #3065007 I cannot reproduce:

"* If I start a company (purchase the president's share) and then Undo the
act of forming it, the status window continues to show the company with the
share price I set.

Reported by John David Galt"

In all cases I have tried, undoing the company start erases the par price. 
Maybe Stefan has fixed this one in the meantime?

Erik.

Subject: [Rails-devel] Dynamic company order and other fixes

I have finally managed to add a missing feature that affects all games
implemented so far (except 1825): the operating company order is now
dynamic. After each company turn the operating order is recalculated. The OR
panel will be recreated if the order has changed.

I am also gradually fixing and implementing a number of outstanding bugs and
minor requests, many of which come from John David Galt's long list.

Done so far:

- If a company has no train, "No train" is reported below the map instead of
"Withhold".
- Show grayed out "Buy Train" button in the train buying step if the company
has no money, or cannot buy a train for any other reason.
- Fix treasury selling tooltip (which said "buy" instead of "sell").

Erik.
