[Rails-devel] Updates

[Erik V. <eri...@hc...>]

In the past few days I have added a few bits to 1835.

Stuff that already worked long ago and has now been retested:
- Minors.
- 3 different variants for start packet distribution.

Now added:
- The map.
- Majors can lay 2 yellow tiles in the yellow phase.
- Tile upgrade rules can vary per hex (e.g. non-Y and Y 
cities get different yellow tiles).

Not yet done:
- Private special properties.
- Prussian formation.
- Certificate selection (10% or 20%) on buying from
and selling to the Pool.
- Nationalisation.
- Perhaps a lot more; it's long ago that I played this game, 
I don't have all the finer details clear in my mind now.

1835 required the ability to have 2 home tokens in one hex.
To facilitate this, the home and destination hex configuration 
has been moved from Map.xml to CompanyManager.xml.

I have also implemented the correct revenue display for
the red off-board hexes per phase. The different values
are specified in Map.xml, and the change triggers have been
added to the Phase definitions in Game.xml.

1856 and 18AL currently do not properly initialise;
I will sort that out later.

[Rails-devel] Updates

I have moved the version string from LocalText to Game.
In addition, I have cleaned up LocalisedText.properties
and sorted it alphabetically.

Another thing I would like to do soon (if noone else does it,
of course) is the change of all package names by prepending rails.
As this affects almost all files, it will be a huge update.

I propose that we agree beforehand upon the person who does it, 
and the time that it will be done, so that anyone else
can stay away for a while.

I would be prepard to do it next Sunday, 
probably in the (European) afternoon.

Probably a good idea.

I'm not sure if I'll have time before then.
