TODO list

  • generalize requirements GNAPATCH#1338
  • Stop the SDL2 client rotting...
  • Figure out a way to add animation to the map drawing backend.
  • Start work on a Civilization III style ruleset (should be easier than SMAC IMHO). It doesn't need to be 100% compatible at the beginning.
  • New governments rules.
  • Improve AI attitudes and diplomacy (ex.  AI should prioritize its survival and seek peace when losing.  Relationships should not remain static the entire game (war/peace/alliance).  Should accept reasonable deals.)

Feel free to pitch in to help code any of the above.
