Bug#637624: simutrans: Height maps are loaded as "maps/save/X*.*" not "save/file.ppm"

[Russell Coker]

Package: simutrans
Version: 102.2.2~ds1-1
Severity: normal

open("maps/save/zzz*.*", O_RDONLY)      = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

I couldn't get height maps to load, so I ran strace while telling it to load
a map named "zzz".  The above is the relevant line of strace output.

According to all the online documentation the height maps should go in the
game save directory, I think this was a bad decision and maps/save may be
better, but it needs to be documented.

Opening a file with "*.*" appended to the name might work in Windows, but is
really the wrong thing to do on Linux.  Probably ".ppm" should be appended.
