I've fixed the clearing of private information from enemy scans. This was a lot more intrusive than I had imagined.
We have to clear the fleet and design names from enemy scans. So what do we put there? I'm leaving it blank (so players can't name their designs "War Pig Scout" and confuse people...). But then, I had to update the client to fill in "War Pig Scout" when it sees a scout with a blank name. Except, where does "War Pig" come from? Seems, we never added a place to store the names of known enemies (players start without knowing the names and ids of other player races).
So, then I had to update the PlayerData structure, and the toXML and parseXML, and the regression files...
In other news, I added a highlight to the path of the currently selected ship (not shown).
I also fixed the next turn generation in the client. Note, it just goes ahead and generates a multi-player turn when any one player hits generate...
