This is a patch I've been tinkering with which introduces an 'auto-retreat'
server option to parallel 'auto-attack'. The idea is to give obviously
vulnerable units the opportunity to withdraw to a nearby city or fort when
they have the moves to do so and would've been able to anticipate the attack
anyway. (Think: ironclads approaching engineers working coastal tiles.)
Units will attempt to auto-retreat when an enemy enters an adjacent tile (and
survives any auto-attacks against it) that:
1. has spare movement points, and
2. 75% or better combat odds against the endangered tile.
The endangered unit must:
1. have spare movement points,
2. not be fortified or fortifying, and
3. not occupying a city or fort.
Auto-retreating units will attempt to find a path to a "safe" tile reachable
in a single turn, preferring above all cities and forts, and immediately go
there. The unit's owner is notified so they know where their unit has gone.
Automated civilians stay automated; they will usually return to work next
turn.
