[Rails-users] 1830 tile upgrade question

[John D. <ja...@fa...>]

Salutations!

Am in a PBEM/Dropbox game of 1830 using Rails.  My copy of the 1830 
rules (original Avalon-Hill edition), says "A Railroad may only replace 
a tile if at least part of the track on the new tile is part of a route 
which is open to that Railroad".

Now, when the map window opens it outlines in red all the tiles which a 
RR can upgrade in its turn (or the hexes where it can lay a tile). 
However, if you click on a hex with a tile, that Railroad is then able 
to upgrade that tile even if there is no way that RR could use any of 
the track on that tile.

Also had bug, number of certificates not counted correctly at end of 
stock round.

Can send game files to anyone who requests.

Thanks very much for your help with this.

Yours, John Desmond

Rails does not enforce legal track lays.

Rails does quite some efforts to enforce legal tile lays, but indeed, it
does not enforce this aspect of permissiveness (yet).

I'm certainly interested in receiving a saved file showing a certificate
count bug. That count should be correct.
I trust that you are aware that privates do count as certificates.

Erik.
