Good. But for Freeciv mode, it would be nice to add more kinds of
disasters. What about freeze waves, like in northern america, or a
meteorite fall (very rare, maybe), etc... It would make the concerned
cities to ask the government for some gold. And maybe the meteorites
could fall everywhere, even in desertic areas. Evolved enough civiliza-
tions would be automaticaly informed, and they could build protections.
They could also damage the spaceship.
Well... All these ideas should be kept for the 4.12.8 version :o)
