Bug Description

Currently the statistics for land size just counts the fields each player owns. This is a number that is hard to interpret: for smaller maps a small value might already mean that the player is dominating, on big maps even a big number doesn't mean much.

This suggest to display a percentage value instead. Either
1) percentage of total map size
2) percentage of total land mass (then, only land fields should be counted)
3) percentage of currently owned fields, that is nr_fields_owned_by_players/nr_of_fields_not_neutral.

One of these suggestion should be chosen.

I am torn on this.

A win condition calculates the percentage already (landlord I think), so we have this available as extra points in some games. However, to compare between different games it would still be nice to keep the absolute value available. I think I prefer the way it is. What do others think?

+1 for wontfix.
