If you use slope tool on harbor, harbor will be disappeared or crashed.

there are more bugs with harbours:

-- if you build powerlines over a harbour, the harbour building is deleted
-- crash if you build a monorail depot on elevated way above harbour (then the depot foundation is tried to built on the harbour)
-- one can built road into harbour (from below)

.. the problem is that the tiles under a harbour are of type 'boden' (not 'fundament' like all other buildings). Why are harbours an exception here?

At least this problem didn't happen in 102.2.
Problem happened in 102.2.1 and should be solved.

BTW, RC had been freezed ? Recent fixes are not in RC.
If there is no plan to release new version, how about open again ?

The harbour was boden for historical reasons and because stations were also with ground type boden (before extension buildings came into existance.

I known that, and that is the reason to request re-opening RC branch.
Players want stable version without crash.
Release is not for developers but for players.
There are several known problems and patches for them, they should be included.

Many recent fixes fix problems not in rc. The stable 102.2 will be done tonight, to avoid the double workload with two branches getting further and further apart. We have not enough resources for both and the last release is too old anyway.

.. this bug was introduced with the fix for the AI players. Simply reverting this change would not work.

Here is a patch, that fixes some of the problems mentioned in the thread (at least the crashes).

Update: simpler check in boden::ist_natur.
