To my surprise and dismay, the modified patch by jjm somehow slipped through the cracks in the upgrade to 1.12.0. Here is an updated version. The changes are:

--Value of trade route should be double the base amount if the two cities are on different continents, NOT half the base amount if they are on the same continent as the original code states.

--The one time gold/science bonus is NOT affected by whether the cities belong to the same player or whether they are on the same continent.

--A fudge factor of 3 is applied to the one time bonus to approximate Civ2 behaviour, although exact emulation is not possible without the supply and demand system.

These changes are based on info from the "Sid Meier's Civilization II - The Official Startegy Guide", gracefully provided by Elaine Richer.

Please apply the patch ASAP.  Thanks.

Mike
