[Freeciv-Dev] Island-based generator

[Thomas Müller <lists@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi.. i played lots of freeciv games with islandbased generator now, and i 
think a very important factor to win is to find a second island. The problem 
is, that sometimes you just have to go round your ilsand and find a new 
island, because there is only 1 ocean tile between them, then its quite easy 
to expand fast. 
Sometimes you have to go with your trireme one square to the open see and back 
to find a new island, because they are 2 tiles apart, which is some more 
work.

It only gets messy, if you cant find a new island at all with triremes without 
risking to loose them, and then you have a big disandvantage towards the 
other players.

Since islandbased generator says "fair but boring" i think something should be 
done about it..

Any ideas? Interest? I could look at the code myself, it you agree with me.

Thomas
