With the current trunk, I've noticed an interesting connundrum, at least
on my system. I'm running Linux Mint with the MATE desktop. I ordinarily
operate with focus-follows-mouse but this manifests with the usual
click-to-focus mode, too.
In full screen mode, a number of the popup windows (file

I noticed playing with git.088d638 that founding fathers seem to be a
bit overeffective. In particular, Magellan adds movement points to all
units and Drake adds the 50% combat bonus to all units. I assume this is
fallout from the recent flurry of updates in the repository which is why

I've noticed that in recent revisions, artillery is nearly useless for
attacking colonies or native settlements. Dragoons are marginally better
but not by much.
Watching the log during a siege on a colony, I observed something
interesting. Attacking with an artillery which had a pre-combat repo

The documentation says there should be no penalty for being in the open
when attacking a colony (and possibly a native settlement - that's

The FreeCol manual states it in th

That seems pretty conclusive: Artillery attacking a village or colony
does not get penalized for being in the open.

Of all the little niggles that I never get motivated to write down, this
one finally got my attention today.
I don't think this is exactly a bug, but it does annoy me regularly. It
might be partly my play style ("mega stacks of doom") but I can't be the
only one who does that. After all, that's

The current trunk doesn't build cleanly with Java 1.7. It complains
about unsupported major numbers in the jar files for jorbis and jogg.
The resulting build hangs at the splash screen on my system. Updating my
system to Java 1.8 allows it to build clean and run properly. The

For what it's worth, it's the sort of thing you should expect if you use
a development branch of a project. And the solution

I don't know if this is new with the recent changes since I haven't been
playing much lately. However, it seems the combat reports are not
showing up until after the focus moves on to another unit. That is, say
I attack a settlement with an artillery and the artillery survives. That

I agree with David. A release is a good idea even if it requires a
"brown paper bag" release immediately when some show stopper pops up. We
clearly need bug reports against the current codebase rather than the
last released version. Given the extensive renovations since the last
0.11.x release,
