A Civilization style game; C-evo: New Horizons

C-evo was originally developed for Windows.
  www.c-evo.org
  https://civilization.fandom.com/wiki/C-evo
  https://civilization.fandom.com/wiki/Category:C-evo

More recently its been ported to Linux.

I've worked on packaging side, and set up two builds in the AUR.
  https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/c-evo
  https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/c-evo-bin

The first builds from source, but needs fpc and lazarus as build dependencies.
These can be avoided using the 2nd, that just repackages a prebuilt binary.
( A trick I found from lazpaint https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/lazpaint-bin )

IMHO C-evo is a worthy alternative to Freeciv.

P.S.
Also packaged the external map generator.

Newer version available now
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show … rBBB/c-evo

This one has the tiny buttons made larger, and supports larger random maps.

Cheers,
