Yitzi's unofficial SMAX patch 3.2

[Yitzi]

There appears a bug in current patch: if you capture a mindworm in network game (TCP/IP), the game crashes.

Hmm...would you like to set up a mutual TCP/IP game so that I can try it and see what's going on?  If so, what's your IP address, and when would you like to do it?

(Also, does it happen only when you successfully capture, or whenever you might capture, even if it fails?  i.e. can you play as the Gaians and fail to capture (not getting the "superior mind" message) without crashing the game?)

You can try it locally, just host a TCP/IP game, take Gaians, capture mindworm.

Killing a mindworm, even with +PLANET, doesn't crash, not sure about the superior mind thing.

Also, I'm running SMAC on Linux via Wine, can't check if it's reproducible on Windows ATM.

Vanilla doesn't crash though.

Ok...I found and fixed the bug, and 3.3 (fixing this bug as well as a few others) should be up shortly.

Great, thank you for your work!
