[Rails-devel] 18EU bug in 1.8.7, recommended to use 1.7.12 for non-1880 games

[Stefan F. <ste...@we...>]

There was a bug-report regarding revenue calculation in rails 1.8.7 for 
18EU. This bug has been confirmed, but did not occur in rails 1.7.x 
series. So it was introduced by the changes for 1880.

Since the first alpha release there is the recommendation on the 
homepage of rails to use the 1.8.x releases only for 1880, but play all 
other games on 1.7.x

I will not triage the bug in 1.8.7 as it is possible to downgrade to 
1.7.12 or to upgrade to rails 2.x in the future.

This is not to discourage anyone of you who brought 1880 to Rails. It is 
quite natural in the beginning to break some of the other games, as it 
is not clear what the core is that should not be touched.

Nearly all code I have written in the beginning of my participation has 
been changed already, as I had the same problems ;-)
