City "Not Enough Space" Bug

January 2, 2011 2:00 AM from

In a particular game played with some mods, there was a city that was close to other cities, but even after it grew a level, it stayed stuck with no new buildings able to be built, even after I destroyed one. I'm pretty sure it is a problem with the base game, and not a mod. Anyway, I'll attach the save game file and the mod directory I used.

Best regards,
Steven.

PS: It is sometimes possible for a unit to appear two squares away when coming out of a city (and sometimes not). However I don't mind whether this one is fixed soon, if it is, in fact, a bug.

Steven, I think you will find the lack of expansion due to it encroaching on the 5 tile minimum seperation limit within the game

I have encountered it several times & confirmed it was due to this by turning on the grid from the options screen

Strange, I thought there was space available in at least one direction. Maybe there were other towns to the south as well.

Best regards,
Steven.
