Bug Description

Attached to this report is a patch that creates a Lua function for acquiring upgrades during a game (using DefineAllow during a game didn't apply the appropriate modifiers).

The function is called "AcquireUpgrade" and takes two arguments: the first argument is the number of the player who will acquire the upgrade, and the second argument is the upgrade's ident.

Improved version of this code, as discussed in the Stratagus conference:

This makes the upgrade be acquired or lost through the SetPlayerData function (via "HasUpgrade")‏, and the UpgradeLost function now works properly, reversing the upgrade's modifiers accordingly‏.

Example of how this would be used through Lua:
SetPlayerData(0, "HasUpgrade", "upgrade-dwarven-broad-axe", true) -- makes player 0 acquire the dwarven broad axe upgrade

I have made a more universal function in SetPlayerData - "Allow" (same, as in your "Allow" from GetPlayerData) in rev. 8930
