Thanks for the interesting info, Matthias. Could you please
elaborate a
little? Why are these changes necessary to increase the number of
possible players?
First of, I'm *not* an expert! That I'm telling you could be wrong. It
includes the knowledge I got from looking at the code and some
testing!
[... a lot of text ...]
You got me to really try it. It is possible - not nice, but possible.
The
attached patch increases the player number to 128. If MAX_NUM_PLAYER is
changed even higher numbers are possible. But at the moment you cant
save
the game as the savegame format is not prepared for such a number of
players ...
in a second try even saving seems to work ... but I do not know if there
is
not a big bug waiting somethere ...
Patched servers/clients are *INCOMPATIBLE* to all other versions of
freeciv!
This is great news, Matthias. What do you think about setting the maximum
number of players to 1024? Also, how should Freeciv assign nations and
flags to all these players?
