Freeciv

This would be the next commit to port to freeciv/freeciv.web. Any ideas how that should be done?

As far as I know web-client has no idea of native tiles, but has always just sent movement requests to server to block, or to convert to transport embarking. With this new action, the client would need to know when to request it.
For earlier unload / load actions that has not been a problem. Even with Disembark we do know that if we are currently transported, then any move would require Disembarking. Reverse is not true for - even when we are not currently transported, it's only a rare case when a move is meant to be Embarking.

Won't that just result in the action selection dialog popping up with embark as an alternative?

You could send a background request to the server and hook into handle_unit_actions() as its first user. (Remember to mark the request as background by setting disturb_player)

Ok. So I just have to try to do the server update to that commit and see if it works, instead of worrying beforehand.
