Ape Apps

Issue as the title stated.

For any commonwealthes, creating a new colony using a charter code will cause the new colony relocated to their home civilization's AI commonwealth, after being indicated as ' colony of Undefined '.

I think it is client side bug:
With Fiddler: POST www.my-colony.com/api.php HTTP/1.1 f=3&g=1&c=XXXXXXX&relcd=91


{"colonyid":"935XXX","colonyname":"Mars","civilization":"United Earth","race":"Human","maptype":"Red Planet"}

So at first it resolves the parent(XXX is a masking done here) Thereafter when registers:

POST www.my-colony.com/api.php HTTP/1.1
f=32&g=1&n=Newname&p=undefined&relcd=91

{"id":0,"charter":"VZKOACbR","guid":"10E8A8BE-4E45-75C8-8E42-951366CEE0F5"}

So probably there is a workaround if I ask fiddler to substitute undefined with my charter code.

What worries me a bit is that there is absolutely no authentication on the corresponding API calls.

Thanks for the debugging. You are right that there is no authentication on API function 32. I can probably change that now, as it was required to be that way before because registering a colony online originally did not require an Ape Apps Account at all, and so the functions of adding a new colony to the database and registering a colony to an account were implemented separately, to accommodate all of the colonies that existed before Ape Apps Accounts were implemented. I will need to replace this with a new authenticated function for the next update.

HEY DON’T COPY & PASTE MINE WITHOUT QUOTING FUNCTION

But thanks for getting this problem noticed by bast for debugging.
