[glob2-devel] info on latest edits in Unit.cpp

[Leo Wandersleb]

Hi list

I was trying to improve unit<->building matching what i could not achieve as 
well as expected. But for other ideas i hope on help by Bradley as I guess they are 
more promising.

== What I did ==
first i changed a while(workersNeeded) into a if(workersNeeded) what resulted 
in a more even distribution of workers.
second i didn't prioritize units having the right resource over all other units 
but rather weighted each case to pick the best (formula made up based on some 
ideas and tested but surely not perfect although no strange behaviour occured).

(third i tried to change unit removal as it only removed one worker that wasn't 
needed anymore and not all of them but it doesn't get called at the right time. 
upon delivery of res x all units carrying res x that are no needed anymore 
should immediately released)

All this resulted in a slight improvement when there were -55/140 workers free. 
in numbers:
my version took 110 game seconds
version 23 took 130 game seconds
to finish all construction sites in a given save game.

With 9/218 workers free i got:
my version took 40 game seconds
version 23 took 40 game seconds
to finish all construction sites in a given save game.

== What needs to be done ==
*release all units not needed anymore without waiting for the delivery of an 
unwanted res.
*if there are more jobs than workers, workers should choose job, not the other 
way round!!
in such a condition single units will automatically work for the first building 
in the line even if there are as important buildings maybe needing the carried 
resource.

I expect a dramatic improvement on large town management by the second change.

Greetings, Leo Wandersleb
