I don't think so! It's a big disadvantage for FC that you can't choose turn based or simul play...!

I don't play with AIs. I hate AIs! I play the turn based game Civ 2 MP with ONLY humans!

DrSprike,
As you describe it, but the bribe amount is stated upfront.
Fail, the diplomat simply dissappears but no gold lost. Succeed, a certain amount of gold is subtracted, the city is bribed and the diplomat dissappears.
Detailed information (the actual source with comments) about the diplomat and spy actions can be found here:
http://www.freeciv.org/lxr/source/s...iplomats.c#L422
Detailed Information (the source with comments) about the incite city costs can be found here:
http://www.freeciv.org/lxr/source/s...ityturn.c#L1256
This is the source for the incite city costs (quote seems to wrap the lines it's better readable at the direct link):

Another update on recents development in FC. Not all things being development are apparent to the end user. Some of these changes actually present fundamental shifts in the system. This time I've dug a little deeper and look at some large changes in the mapping system. In short it means Freeciv will supports a large number of map formats: flat, wraparound, isometric (SMAC, Civ2, Civ3-style this is what will interest Civ2/3/SMAC fans), Torus e.a. We won't actually see much difference in the normal flat view. Apart from ships 'flipping' to other sides of the map if you reach/cross the poles. The benefits will become visible if someone whips up a real 3D map client.
code:
==================================================
=======================
-Different types of map topology
+Different types of topologies
==================================================
=======================
+ Historically in FreeCiv the word Topologies was used for 2 different
+thinks, one is the way of the map is placed in memory and indexed; we call
+it Map Indexing (eventually Map Inedxing Topology)
+ The other is related to the way of tiles see the neighbor tiles and
+paths over the map, this is related to the wrapping of edges; We call it
+Wrapping Topology (or Topology as in math).
+
+see Map Indexing, Wrapping, Wrapping Topology
+ and Cartographicals Projections later
+=================================================
========================
+Map Indexing
+=================================================
========================
Originally Freeciv supports only a simple rectangular map. For instance
a 5x3 map would be conceptualized as
- <- XXXXX ->
- <- XXXXX ->
- <- XXXXX ->
+ - XXXXX -
+ - XXXXX -
+ - XXXXX -
and it looks just like that under "overhead" (non-isometric) view (the
-arrows represent an east-west wrapping). But under an isometric-view
-client, the same map will look like
+minus represent an east-west simplest wrapping). But under an
+isometric-view client, the same map will look like
- X
- X X
+ \
+ \ X
+ \ X X
X X X
X X X
X X X
- X X
- x
+ X X \
+ X \
+ \
where "north" is to the upper-right and "south" to the lower-left. This
-makes for a mediocre interface.
+makes for a mediocre interface in this calssic wraping topology.
An isometric-view client will behave better with an isometric map. This is
what Civ2, SMAC, Civ3, etc. all use. A rectangular isometric map can be
conceptualized as
- <- X X X X X ->
- <- X X X X X ->
- <- X X X X X ->
- <- X X X X X ->
+ - X X X X X -
+ - X X X X X -
+ - X X X X X -
+ - X X X X X -
(north is up) and it will look just like that under an isometric-view client.
Of course under an overhead-view client it will again turn out badly.
Both types of maps can easily wrap in either direction: north-south or
-east-west. Thus there are four types of wrapping: flat-earth, vertical
-cylinder, horizontal cylinder, and torus. Traditionally Freeciv only wraps
-in the east-west direction.

+and 3 wrapped images ( x, r, l).
+The S tile 5 neighbor: 3 normal (M, N, T) and 2 wrapped images (x, r)
+ ( this is a topological singularity related to the no wrap wrapping)
+
+
+Offset Wrapping:
+===============
+this is a variation of simplest wrapping: which a wrap in the X direction
+is accompanied by a shift in the Y direction:
+
+r-ABCDEF-m
+x-GHIJKL-s
+f-MNOPQR-a
+l-STUVWX-g
+
+The tile M as 8 neighors: 5 normal neighbor ( G, H, N, T, S)
+and 3 wrapped images ( l, f, x).
+The S tile 5 neighbor: 3 normal (M, N, T) and 2 wrapped images (l, f)
+ ( this is a topological singularity related to the no wrap wrapping)
+
+
+Reversed Wrapping:
+=================
+The tiles at edge the tiles are as neighbor one tiles of
+the some edges turned 180°. The edges can wrapped 1 at time.
+
+this map i am a reversed wrapping at South edge.
+
+ABCDEF The tile T as 8 neighors: 5 normal neighbor (S, M, N, O, U)
+GHIJKL and 3 wrapped images ( v, w, x)
+MNOPQR
+STUVWX The tile S as 5 neighors: 3 normal neighbor (M, N, T)
+|||||| and 3 wrapped images (w, x) ( this is a topological singularity
+xwvuts related to the no wrap wrapping)

+
+But: The tile U as neighors in 8 direction but only 6 different: 5 normal
+neighbor (T, N, O, P, V) and and 3 wrapped images (u, v, w), Were u a image
+of itself and v a image of a normal neighbor
+(this is a new topological singularity) we call it a Central Singularity

+----------------------------------
+FLAT(only partial map), Cylinder(classic global maps), Conical (half Earth nice
