_______________________________________________________
Details:
Auto generated a "Go to and..." menu based on what the unit legally can do.
Since it's a goto it shouldn’t (by default) forbid what may become legal
when a unit reaches its target. (Example: Join the city that will be built at
the target tile next turn)
Keep the existing goto and do X orders in the old locations even if this leads
to duplication. They can be removed when the users are used to the new
locations.
Motivations:
* Allow the user to specify the order before the unit moves into harms way.
* The orders system can handle a lot more than the QT client currently sends.
* Make it easy to find a "Go to and..." unit order.
Putting this in a easy to discover context menu etc isn't in scope here.
---
This is partially an UI experiment. If user and developer feed back to this
interaction style is positive I suggest doing the same for the other clients.
Motivations:
* "Go to and..." orders are spread across many menus. As more actions becomes
action enabler controlled they will automatically end up in this sub menu.
* Client support for "Go to and..." varies.
* What actions a unit can do and how to order it isn't always clear to a
player.
