Must be a bug in the Mac native interface. It works fine with the Tcl/Tk interface; I just checked (with the modern game). I give "3Pi" and 3 infantry come out. I must admit that it is gratifying to know that the primary interface for Linux and Windows users does something better than the Mac interface.

They also should from the command line, but setting the construction run from there is apparently not supported at this time. > Also, I tried to change the default-doctrine manually with a text > command, but must have been doing something wrong. To set something other than the construction run length, you can do something like the following: o doctrine set place-doctrine resupply 5% which will set the 'resupply-percent' for places to 5%. Eric
