I guess it's never used as popup? (or there would be separate popup for each line) My version is mainly for one multiline popup. This is meant for casual user, who may don't even realize what he is doing when he selects server from metaserver list. Popup (by default) at least makes it clear that something 'unusual' happens; (s)he is no longer playing local game on his/her computer, but has connected to server where rules may differ from the ones (s)he is used to and other people may interfere with his/her game. Can we take best of both worlds? Though full warclient functionality might be a bit overkill for mainline Freeciv... - ML _______________________________________________ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev
