Did you test classic or freecol rules? classic has a hack to reveal the
full 11x11, as required for Col1 compatibility. freecol-rules does
not. I do not remember what I did at the time, but judging by
reaction on PF83 I probably decided it was excessive for freecol. Is the
classic-rules hack not working?
FreeCol (the program, not the ruleset:-) (should) distinguish visibility
from exploration. Exploration just reveals the terrain and improvements.
Visibility is exploration plus units. Here is what I think we have ATM:
classic-rules:
- 11x11 exploration for all colonies when Coronado joins
- ongoing 5x5 visibility of your own colonies only
freecol-rules:
- 5x5 exploration for all colonies when Coronado joins
- ongoing 5x5 visibility of all colonies (provided by seeAllColonies)
So if I understand aright, the problem is that classic-rules should
also provide 11x11 exploration for new colonies?
If so, IMHO the best way to do this is in the update sent to
players from the build-colony code.
