Maybe both. I've noticed with my own ruleset (as human player) that barbarian problem is harder in early game (I once investigated this just enough to notice that code that in earlier versions prevented barbarians from attacking too weak (=not enough cities) players is no longer there - maybe my too low onsetbarbs turn was not actually used in earlier versions because of that check). At the same time AI seems to care about defense even less (it has always relied on knowing when someone is approaching and setting defenses only then - which has never worked well with barbarians that are not *approaching* but just appear) - ML _______________________________________________ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev
