[Freeciv-Dev] rfc: default production

["Per I. Mathisen" <per@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Currently, whenever someone has built something and the worklist is
empty, the server queries the AI for the next (default) building target.

This is bad because it requires a lot of AI tentacles into the human
player code, which both creates fertile soil for bugs and also stops the
AI code from being properly optimized for AIs. And it doesn't really give
you good advice anyway.

So I want to remove it. (Yeah, I'm in that mood today.)

Instead, I suggest this simple rule:

if (was producing unit)
        continue producing that type of unit
else if (was producing building and can build capitalization)
        switch to capitalization
else
        /* eg civ2 ruleset */
        switch to first FirstBuild unit (phalanx etc)

Yours
