I tested the patch and it works fairly well. It is a big improvement over the current broken goto for air units, so I will test it some more and commit it soon if I do not find anything obviously bad. I found some strange things while testing which I will describe below and perhaps leave for future tickets if they cannot be easily fixed as part of this patch. I have attached a savegame for ease of testing which I will refer to below. Helicopters seem to work only in S2_1. In trunk they still can only go to "safe" tiles. The path finding code seems to be unable to find a route where it has to wait at an intermediate location with more than 1 move left. For example try making a fighter go from city A to city C and it finds a very long route totally in the wrong direction (it should just go via city B). Using waypoints did not help: setting a waypoint at city B makes any further route impossible. It is still impossible to use fighters to attack a target knowing that they may possibly have no moves to come back, or a target that is unseen. This occurs frequently in games and should be made possible somehow. I could not get patrol to crash, but I could not make it do anything sensible either. For fighters it seems to do nothing and for awacs I kept getting the error message "Orders for AWACS aborted as there are units nearby" (?). When I finally did make the awacs patrol (it went to a tile and had the patrol icon), it just returned to refuel the next turn and did not go out again. > Maybe carrier should be considered as refuel point, it > was written in the code that they could move so don't be > considered as it.

It should be the player's responsibility to not move the carrier before the fighters have arrived, or to recall the fighters if the carrier is destroyed. > Maybe add an option to ignore the dangerous positions > path in the client. It could be quite annoying sometimes > to don't move where you want, especially from carriers. That could be good. Also, it could draw the goto line in green for "safe" routes, and red for potentially suicidal gotos. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- いつものごとく我々は密会を三日三晩探さなければならなかった。
