[Freeciv-Dev] call for a fix for 903 and 1113 (horse in ocean)

[Mike Kaufman <mkaufman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If any brave soul is willing to submit a fix for the horse in ocean bug,
I will surely look at it.

Raimar presented three solutions for this:

> 2) give the horsemen to the new owner
> 3) teleport the horsemen to the nearest city of the owner

I can't find much (any?) discussion about this. I think that 2 or 3 is
best, and I believe number 3 is what happens if a city is conquered, so
that might be easiest.

Attached is a savegame that reproduces the problem to help said
volunteer fix the bug: log in as "kor" and "car" and transfer Pyongyang
to Carthaginians, move the transport.

Discussion? Volunteer?
