The GM selected a scenario map with x number of players in their starting positions, as unassigned players. As the sign-ups for the teams were filled, the GM manually converted the unassigned players into usernames of humans, so that they'd take over that nation on first login. Then the players, in Despotism, inherited a science rate of 100% which was never checked and caught by the server, and were able to keep this rate for multiple turns until the bug was discovered. At FCW, for now we just did a solution but not true bug fix. We changed PLAYER_DEFAULT_SCIENCE_RATE to 60 and PLAYER_DEFAULT_TAX_RATE to 40 (which it should probably be regardless.) However, it's conceivable in some rulesets that those rates would still be illegal in a starting government and thus this bug would still remain. -- Ticket information of Freeciv project Freeciv Project is hosted on OSDN Project URL: https://osdn.net/projects/freeciv/ OSDN: https://osdn.net URL for this Ticket: https://osdn.net/projects/freeciv/ticket/44179 RSS feed for this Ticket: https://osdn.net/ticket/ticket_rss.php?group_id=12505&tid=44179
