[Freeciv-Dev] (PR#12283) New Improvement: Town Clock

["Paul Zastoupil" <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

<URL: http://bugs.freeciv.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=12283 >

I had a long discussion about time yesterday with a coworker.  You're
probably not interested with the discussion, but later I was thinking
about it and rememberd that time keeping was a significant civilizastion
advance.

CTP had a town clock, and I think its a decent city improvement.

I've got a prototype.  It needs some massaging.

Basically it adds 25% prod, and 33% tax, science, luxury.

People are more productive when they can agree on when to meet, how long
something will take, etc.

Attached is a diff and derived art (under GFDL
