Symptom: if you try to run "xtconq -x" and go through the setup
dialogs, you can't start a game. It just beeps when you hit "go".
Cause: The indepside, of course. The beep happens in valid_gamepop.
Just changing
/* check sides */
for (i = 0; i < numsides; ++i) {
to
/* check sides (excluding indepside) */
for (i = 1; i < numsides; ++i) {
isn't right though; that causes 3 real sides to get created, and much
confusion.
Solution: get xinit.c (which does the xtconq setup dialogs) to
consistently use the indepside machinery right. It isn't immediately
obvious to me what has to change for this to happen.
