[Freeciv-Dev] Autoattack-patch

[Sebastian Fischmeister <sfischme@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello.

Some fun for the weekend: 'autoattack patch'-beta

todo:

- if have movement and enough hp remaining, should consider attacking
  multiple times if multiple targets (hard, because you have to
  calculate the warmap for each choice -> lots of cpu cycles !!!)
  
- create gui-client for diplomacy for players, because now you attack
  all and everything *grin* (in work by other persons)

- no help-text available

- attacks enemies, even if they are in an unknown area (easy fix)

fixed from previous patch:

- there is a a problem if a ship moves out of a city to autoattack and
  takes sentried units from the city with it as passengers (it is also
  fixed for normal goto-command now)

- attacking unit should decide, whether to attack or just to inform
  the player, that there is an enemy in range (it makes no sense,
  attacking a AEGIS-Cruiser with a fighter)

- chooses weakest target for attacking (bonus for transporters)

- shuffles player's attack order

howto:

- put a unit, with a high movement-rate (3 or more) in a city and turn
  on all auto-attack options.

Have fun and please test it and gimme feedback...
