I've tried researching construction with multiple races and even if there are abundant forests very close to my city (well within borders) I can't build a lumber mill no matter what I do. The game is slowing to a halt because of this, ruining my enjoyment 
Does anybody know if I'm doing something wrong?
"+ Renamed Lumber Yard to Lumber Mill. Makes note that it requires an old growth forest."
From the Beta 3 patch notes, so it's not enough to be in a forested area, need to actually have one of the resource nodes present. Fairly certain the Hiergamenon also notes this on the build card.
The problem is I bit right next to 2 old growth forests but couldn't build on either. I don't think the build list was notified of the change... 
Some things seem to require a city be of a certain size in order to build them. (Shards so far I've noticed seem to make me wait till a level 3 city is there.)
Hmm. Not sure I like that. Liked that regular forests were essentially the most common resource. It felt like it made sense.
