Follow-up Comment #5, bug #17732 (project freeciv):
Found in code that when starting server the proper topology is enforced.
But this does not happen every time you join a local (already started)
server: in that case topology is not enforced.
Follow-up Comment #1, bug #17732 (project freeciv):
Perhaps this is not an issue with the server, but the tileset? Try loading
the Trident tileset and see if that doesn't give the behavior you desire.
With the game started, select Game - Options - Local client, then Graphics
- Tileset.
Follow-up Comment #2, bug #17732 (project freeciv):
The diagonal square outline appears on the minimap because the map topology
specified at the start of game is not compatible with currently selected
tileset. More specificly, it's the 'Isometric' option that makes the
difference.

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #17732 (project freeciv):
The defaults on Windows 2.3.0-beta3 are Isometric, not Hexagonal, and
Amplio2. The diagonal square outline appears, as well as the NW to SE
orientation. The defaults on Windows 2.2.4 are a numerical Map Topology Index
of 5 and a plain Amplio
