It's a bug. I was a bit too hasty pushing some changes to SVN last night before I went to bed. I will be fixing it later today.
Edit - fixed now.

As far as i remember its been broken almost a year (i believe, dont take that as a fact), but i had, i think a better way for archers, i took from FfH1, called Archery Barrage, i liked that 10 times better, but too many people complained about it so i took it out way back in NWA 3 or 4 (but i liked it).
Thanks for the save game and instructions. Fix just been pushed to SVN.

I had some enemy hand rams use opportunity fire from a city onto my boats today (v20). I guess that's possible.... if they could throw their rams really far...

It means you missed a previous update that updated the unit schema file in that folder. And the mission infos in XML/units folder and the outcomes in the GameInfo folder.

This building smuggler's shanty does not appear correct for a land locked city. Should this version be restricted to coastal towns and another be for land locked cities?

Well it originally was just a pace for smugglers, but then the ships were applied to them. I assumed smugglers could be in non-coastal towns. Not sure what to do now that the ships are associated with it.
I suppose that it is not error but ask here anyway
many utins have "ranged attack" as stated in their description...(stone thrower\slinger\archer) but i dont have on all of them ranged attack icon -only standard attack.
Do they have ranged attack or not?

Bug. I just settled a colony which means both it and I are in the Renaissance but the colony got free stone throwers and gatherers. I would have expected archers and workers at least. In standard BtS workers don't upgrade whereas they do in C2C. Where is the code that decides what units a new colony gets?
Do we need to move some of this out into XML? If we do then we can use it for revolting cities and barbarian cities that settle down into civs.

1) Yes smugglers work across land routes too. I looked at the XML and unfortunately you can't specify not coastal so we will just have to live with it the way it is.
BTW does the pirate cove require the same set of civics as the pirate ships?
2) Suggestion for the gem resources.
- remove the non-map gemestone resource and replace it with the gems resource
- make the gems resource non-map
- adjust all buildings that require gems require one of more of the new gem resources - Amber, Jade, Ruby, Sapphire an Diamond.
When you say 'settled a colony' do you mean 'settled with a colonist' (as opposed to settler) or do you mean something else? If the former the extra buildings you et are defiend in a ROM event handler (search for self.addCityBuildings in RomEventManager.py), but that code doesn't add any units so far as I can see...

I have an island with three cities on it. I pressed F1 and turned them into a colony. This is standard BtS behaviour so I expect the code is in the dll. It does not work properly as the free units they were getting were the lowest available rather than the best available. They have no metals connected to their cities yet but as I said I would have expected better than stone throwers given their technology level - the same as me. iirc the best units they could build at that tech level are archers and they should not get gatherers either being well past sedentary lifestyle.
lol. Shows how deep this game is. I didn't even know there WAS this functionality at all! I'll have a dig around for you later and se what I can find.
how different are colonies than cities

Colonies are the same as vassals. The only difference is that you liberate (via F1) them from your cities. You can only have one colony on a landmass and you can only liberate cities to that colony not to other vassals you may have on the landmass. Cities can still request to go to your vassal.
