Bug, sort of

[Juska]

I seem to remember that forever and ever you could revolt (change your race) without any requirements if you had not used any turns. I recently made an account on turbo (Perseus #61). Created as a rat because the game guide link in the sign-up sheet does not work to show you the races. Got in the game, decided I wanted to be a wildcat and now I can't revolt.

So, um I'm asking why this feature was taken out, if it would be reimplemented, or if I can get my race changed to wildcat.

Hey juska!

I'm not sure i remember this feature, it could be that admins simply changed it upon request if you hadn't taken turns.

I'll go fix that link though, thanks for the heads up

another idea is that you can revolt as long as you are in protection

[Juska]

Could abuse that option Obli, be a huge scouting race then revolt before you break. Seeming that turbo has so many turns and reg is almost never reset it wouldn't be felt very much, but get a few people working together at the beginning of a reg reset and you could have a problem.

I know for a fact that RWL's parent code has the feature to revolt before using turns and had thought RWL itself used to as well.

I see no reason why people should not be allowed to revolt freely before using turns.

Wouldn't be hard to code... there is a used turn counter, so while that is 0, revolt is free.

Most other promi's I've played have had this feauture, so I dont see any harm in implementing it here.
