My suggestion then would be to allow to pick targets from GROUP2 even when GROUP1 was not empty, with stochastic probabilities that favour GROUP1 over GROUP2. The point being to avoid a nasty exploit of deterministic/hard targetting. Since the question has been raised what I would back, I'll chime ...

I think there is a general consensus in that direction.

Unless I'm overruled by Geoff, I'd say there is more than just a general consensus, this matter is actually decided.

Ok, so if I understand correctly, fixing boost 1.70 support is something that needs to be done for 0.4.9, and needs to go on our list. Has there alre...

Targeting is IMHO finished(?). I think there were no changes to AI, so it does not know how to take advantage of targeting. Maybe some UI support missing?

Seen Geoff very sparsely on the forums, but quite active in code review and on- and off active on the government branch.

Ah, ok, good to know. So no need for emergency actions right now...

@Geoff, are you reading this? Only maintaining a (very) sparse presence myself for months now I don't notice such things, but this raises some worries on my part - how much has Geoff been present (both on the forum and contribution-wise) recently? Because usually he reacts to such inquiries, not ge...
