The current system may not be perfect, but it has the virtue of simplicity. It is easily understood by the player, or at least, so I believe. Any replacement rule for borders has to not just generate nicer borders, but be simple to understand as well. I have yet to find any such replacement rule. If you have any, feel free to post it. Just saying "no so rigid" or "more influences" does not help, unfortunately. - Per _______________________________________________ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev
