[comp.sources.games.bugs] Conquer3 & Trade.h

hauck@faline.bellcore.com (Scott Hauck) (07/20/88)

I've been trying to add in the new patch code, but it seems trade.h is
missing (at least from my copies).  Anyone have it?  Also, how does one
win at conquer3?  I've gotten countries going for so long, and with
about 3/4 of the powers, and it just gets silly after a while.  What's
the ultimate goal?

My error on trade.h... just ignore it (create a 0 length file).  trade.h
is already included directly in trade.c -> i just did not update the makefile.

New patch file soon (which will fix the above)... I think i have gotten all 
reported bugs out of the way (except one minor scrolling problem and the 
once i a blue moon unpredictable results when taking land).  

One wins at conquer v3 by playing against other people.  One can have fun
playing against the computer, but the computer can be pretty soundly 
trashed by a little competent playing.

How are people liking the game?

I don't know about the rest of you, but when I 'grep'ped for trade.h
in all of the files, I found zilch.  Since it was obviously never used
I removed it from the Makefile.  If this was wrong, please let me know.
I have not started playing it (no time at present) but I want to start
very soon.

trade.h was a mistake, and does not exist.  The latest two patches fix
this (posted yesterday).   Sorry about that.
