Haha.

Well, I'm attaching three patches actually to fix following:

* config.h.in comment in wrong place fix
 Comments are not allowed to present in same line as 'undef VARIABLE', otherwise the VARIABLE
 will never be set. This patch fixes two such mistakes by moving the comments one line above

* sys/socket addition to tools/players.c
 Apparently we're fighting for the right to have <sys/socket.h> included in numerous files.
 I hope I will win that.

* swap aclocal and libtoolize to remove warning
 aclocal should be run first to avoid libtoolize warning about missing aclocal.m4
 Also added --copy to libtoolize to make sure developer doesn't mess up system wide
 config.guess and config.sub

Hope you can drag them couple more days, so I won't have to patch CHANGES 
as well :)

Stas.

[help bot deal with ping-pong plasma
Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060525030034
 The robot has code to deal with Ping-Pong plasma, but it's an old
 version.  It doesn't work properly with the current ping pong plasmas,
 written by Trent Piepho in 1995 (so the old ones are really old!). 
 Basically, the bots needs to allow for plasma fired by a friendly player
 becoming hostile to it.
       
 Also sets the pl_team member of the plasma struct, which makes getting
 the plasma's team easier.
] 
[help client with plasma war in ping-pong mode
Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060525025806
 In Ping-Pong plasma mode, a plasma changes teams when it is bounced. 
 There is no way to send this change to the client, so the client doesn't
 know.  For example, if a player at peace with us but who we are at war
 with bounces our (or a teammate's) plasma back at us, it appears to the
 client that the plasma is friendly.  But really, it's not, since we are
 at war with the plasma's new team.  Fix this by setting the plasma's war
 flag if the player is hostile to the plasma's team.
  
 In order to take advantage of this, clients will need to be sure to:
 1. Not assume that the player's own plasma is friendly.
 2. Not assume that plasma from the player's team is friendly.
 3. Make sure the check the plasma's war flags, and not the flags of the
 player who fired it.

[torp dir for robot
Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060524082754
 Hadley's bot expects to get torp direction from the server, but the
 server only sends it for your own torps.  Changed to send it for other
 players' torps too.  Without it, the bot thinks all torps are going
 straight up, making it a very bad dodger (unless you attack from below). 
   
 This should be fixed to only turn this on for the robot, so as not to
 help borgs.  This will have to wait on a better way to detect robots.

 Some calls to req_cloak_off() were missing the function's argument,
 the reason string.
] 
[fix res danger
Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060524082437
 The check for res danger would make the robot cloak when near _any_ home
 planet, so it would cloak even when bombing it's own core.  Unfortunately,
 it is not possible to tell from the planet flags whose home world a
 planet is.  Changed the code to only check the normal home planet
 indexes, skipping the bots's own HW, for proximity.  This makes the code
 much smaller and faster.  Realistically, the HWs are always at the
 standard indexes, even with non-standard planet layouts.  Included a bit
 of code, #if'ed out, that will find home worlds by name, the way the bot
 does when it wants to refit.
] 
[fix use of un-initialized variable
Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060524082353
 Fix a warning about a un-initialized use of pldist in update_players(). 
 It didn't matter, but fix the warning anyway.
] 
[fix crash in RCD generation
Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060524082241
 The code to generate the RCD message didn't handle the case when there
 were no visible friendly and/or enemy ships.  In this case,
 _state.closest_{e,f} would be NULL.  Do what clients do in this case, and
 use me->p_no when no suitable other player is known.
] 
[fix closest_planet
Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060524082149
 closest_planet() would usually return NULL every other time it was
 called.  For speed, it would check the previous closest planet first,
 then look for a _closer_ planet.  If it didn't find one, it returned
 NULL, rather than the previous (and current) closest planet (which
 it now returns).  
] 
[fix neutral planet check
Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060524082029
 Fix several bugs with check_take().  It didn't handle the case when no
 enemy planets were left.  It looked at the last enemy planet in the list,
 rather than the target enemy planet when deciding if it should take neut
 planets.  It would skip looking for neuts when it found an enemy agri and
 _didn't_ have enough armies to take it.
] 
[adapt when assaulting
Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060524081723
 The assault planet code didn't re-check the target planet after the
 assault started.  If the planet was taken by another player on a friendly
 team, or modified by god, the robot would still try to bomb/take it, even
 when that action was no longer possible.  The robot will now check for
 planets is can not drop on, and abort the assault if so.  It will not try
 to bomb planets it can not bomb.  It will also stop reinforcing planets
 when they get to 4 armies.

 The test for gmp in the res-rsa autoconf file failed for gmp version
 3.  In gmp3, functions are #define'd to different names in gmp.h, for
 example mpz_init() becomes __gmpz_init().  Since the autoconf test
 doesn't include gmp.h, it didn't find the new names.  The fix, copied

[fix two second delay on client connection if daemon not running
quozl at us.netrek.org**20060521123246
 
 	Remove the two second delay experienced by clients that connect to
 	a server on which the daemon is not running.  Also fix a cause of
 	initial connection failing, which happens if the daemon does not
 	start up within the hoped-for interval.
 
 	Solution is implemented using the SIGUSR1 signal, but only during
 	the initialisation window between when ntserv forks the daemon and
 	the daemon completes initialisation.  The signal is not used at
 	other times.
 	
 	* ntserv/daemonII.c (main): send a SIGUSR1 to parent process
 	(ntserv) once initialisation of shared memory is completed and
 	regular SIGALRMs are about to commence.
 
 	* ntserv/openmem.c (openmem): remove two second delay that was
 	used to hope for daemon to initialise.
 	
 	* ntserv/openmem.c (startdaemon): add a wait for SIGUSR1.

[add max duplicate ip count for pickup play
quozl at us.netrek.org**20060519075351
 Adds a new etc/sysdef option DUPLICATES which is the maximum number of
 pickup player slots allowed from the same IP address before the next
 connection is given the Q32 response.
 
 This is a denial of service filtering feature.
 
 The default is 3.  Set this above 16 to make it ineffective.
 
 Set this to less than half of the number of players per side, otherwise
 abusers may not be ejected or banned by majority vote because a majority
 would be impossible.
 
 Does not affect robots, unless they join via the pickup queue ... which
 would be a misconfiguration.  Robots normally join via a special queue.

[add install-ntserv target for live updates
quozl at us.netrek.org**20060519060623
 Addition of a target install-ntserv to the ntserv Makefile so that a

 The target moves the existing in-use ntserv binary into an archive
 tree before installing the new ntserv binary.  This makes it possible
 to manually back out of an installation if the new binary breaks
 badly.
 
 Other methods to test a new ntserv binary include running it manually
 for connection back to the client.  See ntserv command line options.

[move wdt reset from SIGALRM handler to input handler
quozl at us.netrek.org**20060518024416
 Slots may jam in POUTFIT after KWINNER if the user terminates
 the client ungracefully ... such that the TCP connection is gone but
 the ntserv lives on.
 
 During this time, daemon synchronisation still sends SIGALRM to the
 ntserv, and ntserv's SIGALRM handler still resets the p_ghostbust
 timer.
 
 Prototype solution is to move p_ghostbust watchdog timer reset from
 within the SIGALRM handler to the section of main loop that is
 executed when input arrives from the client.
 
 Monitoring the p_ghostbust timer with gdb shows it is now reset for a
 dormant client on receipt of ping responses.

[help bot deal with ping-pong plasma
Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060525030034
 The robot has code to deal with Ping-Pong plasma, but it's an old
 version.  It doesn't work properly with the current ping pong plasmas,
 written by Trent Piepho in 1995 (so the old ones are really old!). 
 Basically, the bots needs to allow for plasma fired by a friendly player
 becoming hostile to it.
       
 Also sets the pl_team member of the plasma struct, which makes getting
 the plasma's team easier.
] 
[help client with plasma war in ping-pong mode
Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060525025806
 In Ping-Pong plasma mode, a plasma changes teams when it is bounced. 
 There is no way to send this change to the client, so the client doesn't
 know.  For example, if a player at peace with us but who we are at war
 with bounces our (or a teammate's) plasma back at us, it appears to the
 client that the plasma is friendly.  But really, it's not, since we are
 at war with the plasma's new team.  Fix this by setting the plasma's war
 flag if the player is hostile to the plasma's team.
  
 In order to take advantage of this, clients will need to be sure to:
 1. Not assume that the player's own plasma is friendly.
 2. Not assume that plasma from the player's team is friendly.
 3. Make sure the check the plasma's war flags, and not the flags of the
 player who fired it.

[torp dir for robot
Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060524082754
 Hadley's bot expects to get torp direction from the server, but the
 server only sends it for your own torps.  Changed to send it for other
 players' torps too.  Without it, the bot thinks all torps are going
 straight up, making it a very bad dodger (unless you attack from below). 
   
 This should be fixed to only turn this on for the robot, so as not to
 help borgs.  This will have to wait on a better way to detect robots.

] 
[fix res danger
Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060524082437
 The check for res danger would make the robot cloak when near _any_ home
 planet, so it would cloak even when bombing it's own core.  Unfortunately,
 it is not possible to tell from the planet flags whose home world a
 planet is.  Changed the code to only check the normal home planet
 indexes, skipping the bots's own HW, for proximity.  This makes the code
 much smaller and faster.  Realistically, the HWs are always at the
 standard indexes, even with non-standard planet layouts.  Included a bit
 of code, #if'ed out, that will find home worlds by name, the way the bot
 does when it wants to refit.

[fix crash in RCD generation
Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060524082241
 The code to generate the RCD message didn't handle the case when there
 were no visible friendly and/or enemy ships.  In this case,
 _state.closest_{e,f} would be NULL.  Do what clients do in this case, and
 use me->p_no when no suitable other player is known.
] 
[fix closest_planet
Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060524082149
 closest_planet() would usually return NULL every other time it was
 called.  For speed, it would check the previous closest planet first,
 then look for a _closer_ planet.  If it didn't find one, it returned
 NULL, rather than the previous (and current) closest planet (which
 it now returns).  
] 
[fix neutral planet check
Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060524082029
 Fix several bugs with check_take().  It didn't handle the case when no
 enemy planets were left.  It looked at the last enemy planet in the list,
 rather than the target enemy planet when deciding if it should take neut
 planets.  It would skip looking for neuts when it found an enemy agri and
 _didn't_ have enough armies to take it.
] 
[adapt when assaulting
Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060524081723
 The assault planet code didn't re-check the target planet after the
 assault started.  If the planet was taken by another player on a friendly
 team, or modified by god, the robot would still try to bomb/take it, even
 when that action was no longer possible.  The robot will now check for
 planets is can not drop on, and abort the assault if so.  It will not try
 to bomb planets it can not bomb.  It will also stop reinforcing planets
 when they get to 4 armies.

[robotd_udcounter.dpatch
jimmyhua73 at yahoo.com**20060523143934
 
 I re-did the setflag() function, so it now will always report back
 a positive incrementing int at 100ms intervals. And it starts with 0
 on program start. 
 
 There are some other places that initialize _udcounter, I think this
 might need to be got rid of, but I didn't do that in this patch.

 The test for gmp in the res-rsa autoconf file failed for gmp version
 3.  In gmp3, functions are #define'd to different names in gmp.h, for
 example mpz_init() becomes __gmpz_init().  Since the autoconf test
 doesn't include gmp.h, it didn't find the new names.  The fix, copied

[fix two second delay on client connection if daemon not running
quozl at us.netrek.org**20060521123246
 
 	Remove the two second delay experienced by clients that connect to
 	a server on which the daemon is not running.  Also fix a cause of
 	initial connection failing, which happens if the daemon does not
 	start up within the hoped-for interval.
 
 	Solution is implemented using the SIGUSR1 signal, but only during
 	the initialisation window between when ntserv forks the daemon and
 	the daemon completes initialisation.  The signal is not used at
 	other times.
 	
 	* ntserv/daemonII.c (main): send a SIGUSR1 to parent process
 	(ntserv) once initialisation of shared memory is completed and
 	regular SIGALRMs are about to commence.
 
 	* ntserv/openmem.c (openmem): remove two second delay that was
 	used to hope for daemon to initialise.

[add max duplicate ip count for pickup play
quozl at us.netrek.org**20060519075351
 Adds a new etc/sysdef option DUPLICATES which is the maximum number of
 pickup player slots allowed from the same IP address before the next
 connection is given the Q32 response.
 
 This is a denial of service filtering feature.
 
 The default is 3.  Set this above 16 to make it ineffective.
 
 Set this to less than half of the number of players per side, otherwise
 abusers may not be ejected or banned by majority vote because a majority
 would be impossible.
 
 Does not affect robots, unless they join via the pickup queue ... which
 would be a misconfiguration.  Robots normally join via a special queue.

[add install-ntserv target for live updates
quozl at us.netrek.org**20060519060623
 Addition of a target install-ntserv to the ntserv Makefile so that a
 server operator can do a live update of ntserv during a running game.
 
 The target moves the existing in-use ntserv binary into an archive
 tree before installing the new ntserv binary.  This makes it possible
 to manually back out of an installation if the new binary breaks
 badly.
 
 Other methods to test a new ntserv binary include running it manually
 for connection back to the client.  See ntserv command line options.

[move wdt reset from SIGALRM handler to input handler
quozl at us.netrek.org**20060518024416
 Slots may jam in POUTFIT after KWINNER if the user terminates
 the client ungracefully ... such that the TCP connection is gone but
 the ntserv lives on.
 
 During this time, daemon synchronisation still sends SIGALRM to the
 ntserv, and ntserv's SIGALRM handler still resets the p_ghostbust
 timer.
 
 Prototype solution is to move p_ghostbust watchdog timer reset from
 within the SIGALRM handler to the section of main loop that is
 executed when input arrives from the client.
 
 Monitoring the p_ghostbust timer with gdb shows it is now reset for a
 dormant client on receipt of ping responses.

 The robot has code to deal with Ping-Pong plasma, but it's an old

 written by Trent Piepho in 1995 (so the old ones are really old!). 
 Basically, the bots needs to allow for plasma fired by a friendly player
 becoming hostile to it.
       
 Also sets the pl_team member of the plasma struct, which makes getting
 the plasma's team easier.

[help client with plasma war in ping-pong mode
Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060525025806
 In Ping-Pong plasma mode, a plasma changes teams when it is bounced. 
 There is no way to send this change to the client, so the client doesn't
 know.  For example, if a player at peace with us but who we are at war
 with bounces our (or a teammate's) plasma back at us, it appears to the
 client that the plasma is friendly.  But really, it's not, since we are
 at war with the plasma's new team.  Fix this by setting the plasma's war
 flag if the player is hostile to the plasma's team.
  
 In order to take advantage of this, clients will need to be sure to:
 1. Not assume that the player's own plasma is friendly.
 2. Not assume that plasma from the player's team is friendly.
 3. Make sure the check the plasma's war flags, and not the flags of the
 player who fired it.

[torp dir for robot
Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060524082754
 Hadley's bot expects to get torp direction from the server, but the
 server only sends it for your own torps.  Changed to send it for other
 players' torps too.  Without it, the bot thinks all torps are going
 straight up, making it a very bad dodger (unless you attack from below). 
   
 This should be fixed to only turn this on for the robot, so as not to
 help borgs.  This will have to wait on a better way to detect robots.

[fix res danger
Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060524082437
 The check for res danger would make the robot cloak when near _any_ home
 planet, so it would cloak even when bombing it's own core.  Unfortunately,
 it is not possible to tell from the planet flags whose home world a
 planet is.  Changed the code to only check the normal home planet
 indexes, skipping the bots's own HW, for proximity.  This makes the code
 much smaller and faster.  Realistically, the HWs are always at the
 standard indexes, even with non-standard planet layouts.  Included a bit
 of code, #if'ed out, that will find home worlds by name, the way the bot
 does when it wants to refit.

Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060524082241
 The code to generate the RCD message didn't handle the case when there
 were no visible friendly and/or enemy ships.  In this case,
 _state.closest_{e,f} would be NULL.  Do what clients do in this case, and
 use me->p_no when no suitable other player is known.
] 
[fix closest_planet
Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060524082149
 closest_planet() would usually return NULL every other time it was
 called.  For speed, it would check the previous closest planet first,
 then look for a _closer_ planet.  If it didn't find one, it returned
 NULL, rather than the previous (and current) closest planet (which
 it now returns).  
] 
[fix neutral planet check
Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060524082029
 Fix several bugs with check_take().  It didn't handle the case when no
 enemy planets were left.  It looked at the last enemy planet in the list,
 rather than the target enemy planet when deciding if it should take neut
 planets.  It would skip looking for neuts when it found an enemy agri and
 _didn't_ have enough armies to take it.
] 
[adapt when assaulting
Trent Piepho <xyzzy at speakeasy.org>**20060524081723
 The assault planet code didn't re-check the target planet after the
 assault started.  If the planet was taken by another player on a friendly
 team, or modified by god, the robot would still try to bomb/take it, even
 when that action was no longer possible.  The robot will now check for
 planets is can not drop on, and abort the assault if so.  It will not try
 to bomb planets it can not bomb.  It will also stop reinforcing planets
 when they get to 4 armies.

 The sndFlags function will not send flags of observers (except for

 of robots now.  It wll not sample observers' flags, except for an
 observer's own flags.  The SP_2 sampling code will update the last sent

 zero.

[newbie-fixes.dpatch
jimmyhua73 at yahoo.com**20060523153223
 
  Bug fixes:
 
   1. Merlin gets moved on genocide. Now Merlin moves himself back.
   2. You can get Merlin into a race condition by timing your join and
   joining something other than what Merlin chooses for the warring teams.
   This is fixed (I think). I was never able to time this right!!!
   James please check again!
 
  Known Bug:
 
  1. t-mode criteria is hardcoded into Merlin as 4 players a side.
 
  ChangeLog here:
 
      * robots/newbie.c changed some tabbing for better indent and bracing
      consistency.
 
      * robots/newbie.c added #defines POSITIONX and POSITIONY so there's
      only one place the change the desired x and y position of Merlin
 
      * robots/newbie.c added checkpos() function which checks for changes
      in Merlin's position. Replaces him back into POSITIONX and POSITIONY
      once it finds that Merlin has stopped moving for 15 seconds.
 
      * robots/newbie.c corrected misspellings of various comments
 
      * robots/newbie.c modified num_players() function to return
      the correct *next_team based on t-mode settings also

 The test for gmp in the res-rsa autoconf file failed for gmp version
 3.  In gmp3, functions are #define'd to different names in gmp.h, for
 example mpz_init() becomes __gmpz_init().  Since the autoconf test
 doesn't include gmp.h, it didn't find the new names.  The fix, copied

 is to just do a new test with the gmp3 names if the first test fails.

 	Remove the two second delay experienced by clients that connect to
 	a server on which the daemon is not running.  Also fix a cause of
 	initial connection failing, which happens if the daemon does not
 	start up within the hoped-for interval.
 
 	Solution is implemented using the SIGUSR1 signal, but only during
 	the initialisation window between when ntserv forks the daemon and
 	the daemon completes initialisation.  The signal is not used at
 	other times.
 	
 	* ntserv/daemonII.c (main): send a SIGUSR1 to parent process
 	(ntserv) once initialisation of shared memory is completed and
 	regular SIGALRMs are about to commence.

 Adds a new etc/sysdef option DUPLICATES which is the maximum number of

 connection is given the Q32 response.
 
 This is a denial of service filtering feature.
 
 The default is 3.  Set this above 16 to make it ineffective.
 
 Set this to less than half of the number of players per side, otherwise
 abusers may not be ejected or banned by majority vote because a majority
 would be impossible.
 
 Does not affect robots, unless they join via the pickup queue ... which
 would be a misconfiguration.  Robots normally join via a special queue.

quozl at us.netrek.org**20060519060623
 Addition of a target install-ntserv to the ntserv Makefile so that a

 The target moves the existing in-use ntserv binary into an archive
 tree before installing the new ntserv binary.  This makes it possible
 to manually back out of an installation if the new binary breaks
 badly.
 
 Other methods to test a new ntserv binary include running it manually

[move wdt reset from SIGALRM handler to input handler
quozl at us.netrek.org**20060518024416
 Slots may jam in POUTFIT after KWINNER if the user terminates
 the client ungracefully ... such that the TCP connection is gone but
 the ntserv lives on.
 
 During this time, daemon synchronisation still sends SIGALRM to the
 ntserv, and ntserv's SIGALRM handler still resets the p_ghostbust
 timer.
 
 Prototype solution is to move p_ghostbust watchdog timer reset from
 within the SIGALRM handler to the section of main loop that is
 executed when input arrives from the client.
 
 Monitoring the p_ghostbust timer with gdb shows it is now reset for a
 dormant client on receipt of ping responses.
