Re: [Rails-users] 1856 diesel route

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

Hi,
thanks for reporting.
Unfortunately I cannot give you a better answer than the following:

Loading your game file with either your current version 1.8.8, or with 
the current 1.8.x release 1.8.11 the bug can be reproduced.
Same is true for 1.7.13. However it is clearly shown in your picture 
that it has been reported. It is only possible to figure with the log 
file that is written in the working directory of rails.

However the most likely reason for that behavior: The tile/token 
redo/undo mechanism has some edge cases that do not work correctly in 
rails 1.x.

If you believe in rails 1.x the calculation is wrong, save a game file 
and load the save file again, if the calculation changes, it was due to 
a redo/undo bug.

In rails 2.0 the undo/redo mechanism is rewritten nearly from scratch 
and should avoid such issues in the future.
