- Multiplayer Freeciv Ruleset
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-The 'multiplayer' ruleset is intended to rectify some game balance
-issues encountered on multiplayer servers with the classic ruleset.
-It is based on the 'rewonder' ruleset designed by Madeline Book for
-Freeciv 2.1.
-
-
-
-1. Changes compared to the classic ruleset
- ---------------------------------------
-
-The differences can be extracted by
-
-#> diff -ur data/classic data/multiplayer
-
-Gameplay
---------
-
-Trade routes are disabled. (The Marco Polo's Embassy wonder provides
-an alternative way to increase trade; see below.)
-
-The cost of inciting a city to change hands has been greatly
-increased.
-
-Units attacking with less than a full movement point get penalized because
-of their tiredness. Only the fragment of their normal attack strength
-equivalent to their movement point fragment is considered. If they have 2/3
-movement points, they will attack with 2/3 strength. If they have 1/3 movement
-points, they will attack with 1/3 strength.
-
-Wonder changes
---------------
-
-Almost all great wonders have been changed into small wonders; that
-is, they are player-unique rather than world-unique. Each player may
-build their own "Oracle", for example, or even move such small wonders
-around by rebuilding them in other cities. For small wonders that
-become obsolete, this happens only when the relevant technology is
-discovered by the owning player (rather than by any player).
-
-Unless otherwise noted, for these small wonders, all wonder effects
-that affect all of a player's cities have been changed to affect only
-cities on the same continent as the city with the small wonder.
-
-For the Colossus, Copernicus' Observatory, Great Wall, Hoover Dam,
-King Richard's Crusade, Oracle, Shakespeare's Theater, Statue of
-Liberty, and Sun Tzu's War Academy, these are the only changes. Other
-now-small wonders have been adjusted or completely changed:
-
-- Apollo Program: Does not reveal the map.
-- A.Smith's Trading Co.: Costs 300 (was 400).
-- Darwin's Voyage: Costs 400 (was 300).
-- Eiffel Tower: You get one unit free of shield upkeep per city,
- instead of "AI love".
-- Great Library: Reduces city corruption by 50%, instead of the
- tech-parasite effect. Costs 200 (was 300) and never obsoletes (used
- to be "Electricity").
-- Hanging Gardens: Just makes two citizens happy in each city on the
- same continent. Costs 150 (was 200).
-- Isaac Newton's College: Costs 400 (was 300).
-- J.S. Bach's Cathedral: Costs 300 (was 400).
-- Leonardo's Workshop: Costs 300 (was 400). Upgrades two units per
- turn (was one).
-- Lighthouse: No longer makes sea units veteran (justs add +1 movement).
-- Magellan's Expedition: Instead of the +2 move rate, it just makes
- new sea units built on the same continent veteran.
-- Marco Polo's Embassy: Costs 400 (was 200). Instead of giving
- embassies, it increases trade output by 40% on the continent.
-- Michelangelo's Chapel: Costs 300 (was 400).
-- Pyramids: Instead of giving the granary effect, it allows the city
- where it is built to rapture grow.
-- SETI Program: Renamed to "The Internet".
-- Women's Suffrage: Costs 300 (was 600). Affects 2 and 4 citizens
- under republic and democracy respectively (was 1 and 2).
-
-As for the remaining great wonders:
-
-- Cure For Cancer: Costs 400 (was 600), and makes two citizens happy
- in every city owned by _any_ player who knows "Genetic Engineering".
-- Manhattan Project: No change.
-- United Nations: Instead of unit healing, gives the senate and
- anarchy-from-disorder effects of Democracy to all nations,
- regardless of government.
-
-Building changes
-----------------
-
-- Colosseum: Renamed to "Amphitheater", and cost decreased to 60 (was 70).
-- Supermarket: Increases farmland tile food output by 100% (was 50%).
-- Police Station: Affects 2 and 4 unhappy citizens under Republic and
- Democracy respectively (was 1 and 2).
-
-Government changes
-------------------
-
-The Fundamentalism government is added. This is similar to the one in
-the civ2 ruleset, with following exceptions:
-- Food upkeep for Settlers is 3
-- Free unit upkeep is worth 10 shields in each city
-
-Technology changes
-------------------
-
-- Philosophy gives a free tech to each player when they research it
- (not just the first player).
-- Discovery of Environmentalism additionally knocks 50% off cities'
- pollution from production.
-- Added Fundamentalism from the civ2 ruleset.
-
-Unit changes
-------------
-
-- Caravans and Freight cannot create trade routes.
-- Caravans cost 30 production (was 50); Freight remain at 50.
-- Elephants, Crusaders, and Fanatics added from the civ2 ruleset.
-
-Default settings
-----------------
-
-The ruleset suggests some server setting changes, although these can
-be overridden. Notably, huts, barbarians, national borders, and
-diplomacy are all disabled, more initial units are given, and "fairer"
-map settings are used.
-
-
-2. Use the new ruleset
- -------------------
-
-To play a game with the multiplayer rules, start the server with:
- ./fcser -r data/multiplayer.serv
-or a single player game with
- ./freeciv-gtk3 -r data/multiplayer.serv
-(and any other command-line arguments you normally use; depending on
-how you have Freeciv installed you may have to give the installed
-data directory path instead of "data")
-
-Start the client normally. The client must be network-compatible
-(usually meaning the same or similar version) but otherwise nothing
-special is needed.
-
-Note that the Freeciv AI might not play as well with rules other
-than standard Freeciv. The AI is supposed to understand and
-utilize all sane rules variations, so please report any AI
-failures so that they can be fixed.
