Hi,
This bug occurs on the current network game started at 128.simutrans.entropy.me.uk.
You can visit the map at coord (118,191) to see yourself.
Description:
An AI player can be initiated without password from the public player in network games.
Since the player will not disapear from map, we can use his money indefinitely to alter the map
via key shortcuts.

Since the server has been restarted, but this should be the same save.
Also, very devious technique :)
So the bug is that AI players are not removed in network games?
The bugs are:
1. AI players probably shouldn't be allowed in network games.
2. If they are, then you shouldn't be able to interact with them as a player (e.g. automatically set a random password for the AI account when it is created maybe?)
3. AI players should be removed if they go bankrupt.

What I want to say in the first post is:
I observe that an AI player cannot be created by a normal player
in network games. However, if you click the public player and
WITHOUT ENTERING ANY PASSWORD you can create an AI player.
I think the program should ask first for a public player
password. The bug report refers to this.

The latter is indeed the intended behaviour.

@prissi, what about this?
They will be removed as everybody else. At least it worked when I checked lately. One jsut has to way very long for this, sicne they build slowly.
