There are a bunch of open questions on the wiki I mentioned earlier.  That
would be a great mission for you to take on: Kill the WWC1D Wiki (by
answering and fixing all the questions:-)

Agreed.  No one likes the stockade restriction.  It is totally reasonable
to be able to abandon a colony.  I understand the gameplay restriction in
Col1, and we support it, but if the colonists decide to torch the stockade
and leave town who is stopping them?:-)

There is another interesting case.  We have experimental support for
natural disasters.  One of these is the destruction of a building.  I
think a native attack can do this too.  So... if they knock out the
stockade, does it get rebuilt instantly?  Or in classic rules, should a
player with an unwanted colony try to annoy the natives and leave it
undefended in the hope that they burn the stockade, allowing the colony to
be abandoned?

Yep.  Screenshots are convincing.  Its a bug.

Lets put it there for now and see how it behaves.  I think it makes the
most sense with the destroyed building case above.
