Re: [Rails-devel] Rails 18xx 1.8.7 issues for 1880

Pete,

 

   Are you sure you are running Rails 1.8.7? For example, items 3 and 5
listed below didn't appear to be a problem in our games running Rails 1.8.7.

1880 Rails Issues in 1.8.7 

I posted about an earlier version, and some fixes were implemented, but
these items are still "buggy" and should be fixed.

1.	Undos in Rails do not reset completely to the state prior to the
previous action

1.	Most obvious is when a company is started then an undo is performed
if the player changes their mind and wishes to start another company.  The
"Undone" company still takes a slot in the par slot table.

2.	Rails does not automatically add the +50 for the Russia to
Vladivostok run.
3.	Communist Phase (Begins when 1st four train is bought, ends when
first 6 train is bought)

1.	Rails does not prevent the a Foreign Investor that still exists from
operating (there should be no track lay, no earnings).
2.	Rails does not freeze the stock market (stock values should not move
from operations and/or stock sales)
3.	Rails does not prevent directors from selling their company stock
(directors cannot sell shares in companies they control)

4.	Occasionally Rails retires trains after the companies operate around
to the last train purchaser but then does not go into the stock round but
sticks on "Done" clicks in the operating round window and starts deleting
trains.
5.	Rails does not make the "special" two trains ($250, takes up train
slot on company but does not count as a required train for the company)
available after the first 6 train is bought.
