[Freeciv-Dev] Re: [PATCH] Unit movement

[iquin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Ideally, the client should check the validity of a goto
request before sending it to server. Any error message
to the user should be produced by the client.
Of course, a server should double check again upon receive.
If a goto request targets some tile unknown/fogged/ZOCed
to the player, the server should move the unit to the
"closest" tile reachable by the requested unit and
return the unit to ACTIVITY_IDLE. If the unit is making
illegal move, the server should just silently ignore it.
(Not failing assertion as what it does now when a nasty
client try to switch to an invalid government!!!!!).
