  The "Local" range can currently be pretty confusing, since it contains some information on the current tile (e.g. terrain type and extras), but not all (e.g. different units on the tile). Since, depending on effect type, it's not viable ...

  For non-victorious combat, I'm quite concerned that it assigns veteran levels. In theory it sounds good: you became more experienced in combat and survived.

  FYI, I don't think this patch fixed the second bug, where extreme edge cases made negative bribe costs Bug #929034: Units costing less than 10 shields have 0 bribe cost.

  /common/unit.c::unit_bribe_cost()
  blamed lines of code:
  @ /* Consider the build cost. */
  cost *= (unit_build_shield_cost_base(punit) / 10;@
  FIX: Forcing those to (float) fixed it at FCW, but note, FCW version of this function ...

  I forgot to mention, fcw.org version of the code has previously fixed other similar maths bugs involving rounding and etc., such as a bug that made negative bribe costs where you got PAID to bribe units. Bug #929034: Units costing less than 10 shields have 0 bribe cost.

  This is the only tangible long range air threat the AI provides to challenge single players, and it's effective and real. Removing it is a step backward for playability in my opinion. Better to leave it in and just wait for AI to be sma... Bug #924325: AI: don't build units losing hp until we can manage them

  The AI is noticed to build helicopters but it can't manage them unless it owns UNO. So it should not build them. We can want techs that allow us helicopters with desire scaled to the probability we'll ever have UNO, but as a quick soluti...
