my settlers won't build! arg

chanser69 · October 20, 2002, 03:44

k maybe I'm just being a dumbass or something... but I have updated to 1.29f and everything and for some reason settlers get to one turn left... and they don't complete.. they just stay at one turn left every turn over and over... if i switch to say a granary or something and then switch back to settler the next turn it will build but not if i leave it. Any ideas why?

Check to make sure the city is size 3. The settler uses up 2 pop points when it is created. Workers use one.

Have you modded the game?

Not sure what to do if this isn't the answer.

Settler will not build until you have at least 2 population with a 3rd on the way to keep the already formed city.
The game will wait until the 3rd population is ready then the settler will complete.
See how many turns it takes to build a settler, then see how many turns until next population. If there is a difference then you must wait.

yeah that could be it... but wouldn't it tell me its doing that though? especially if for example one of my cities isn't growing

<---- hehe cool

No, it doesn't tell you. It would be nice if a pop-up came up asking if you wanted to switch to something else.

please no more pop-ups * sigh*

just check your cities more often
