Webmasters, can we include this into the FAQ?

Q: How can I change the way a Freeciv game is ended?
A:
<P>
A standard Freeciv game ends in year 2000, if no player manages to send a
spaceship to Alpha Centauri before.

<P>
If you want a longer or shorter game, you can change the endyear to anyting
between 4000 B.C. and 5000 A.D., by setting the endyear variable in the
civserver, e.g.

<PRE><TT>
set endyear 3000
</TT></PRE>

<P>
You can even end a running game at once, by setting endyear to the current
year.

<P>
If you want to avoid the game ending by space race, you can type

<PRE><TT>
set spacerace 0
</TT></PRE>
