[Freebooters-devel] flags and map

2004-05-31 Thread Esteban \"DdaY\" Fernandez

Hi

Been trying the game, hope it keeps developing till 1.0 :)

anyway, a couple of things :

1- the Spanish Flag should be changed, due to historical reasons, the 
one you put in the game is the new one :

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_Flag

I think it was more like this :

I'm spanish but don't know exactly wich one is, I'm looking for it, I 
try to keep you posted.


2 - Here (http://www.amarriner.com/bb/images/bottlemap.png) you have a 
nice map of thE caribbean, from a pen&paper game, caribbe and all the 
ports, it's from Avalon Hill (an old game) so "maybe" is accurate in a 
historic point of view (also is nice for a game) :)


Maybe i try to paint a new ship for the game, no promises (anyway I'm 
not really good at painting)

:)

Thanks. I added this to the TODO for later versions.

Around the middle of the 16th century.

Good idea, I have added a similar solution to the Arch
repo, as the Makefile and installation process has
changed quite a bit since 0.1.
The upcoming 0.2 release will have Debian packages and
probably alien-converted rpm packages, making the
installation easier.

With the 0.2 I'll move the Arch repo to gna.org.
