So I posted this on Steam but figured I'd do it here too, "Ok, wtf"

Weird City Behavior

from Elemental Forums

So I've got these four cities in a line yeah? On one end is my Capital Town, then another Town, then a Conclave, then my Fortress... The second Town was built pretty much as close to my cap as possible, when I settled it the territories immediately did the Contiguous merging thingy... it insisted that it had -15% unrest for not being Cont to cap. This sometimes goes away and then comes back. Conclave is connected to second town via Arcane Monolith Outpost, it doesn't have -15% unrest for not being Cont to cap. I settle my Fort, connect it to Conclave with Arcane Monolith again. No unrest for not being Cont to cap, the entire time, my second Town is mostly saying it's not Cont to cap.

Build Temple of Forgetting(-15% unrest factionwide before I even have a lvl 4 Fort? Yes PLS)[EDIT: built Temple in Fort to be clear], Fort is now not Cont to Cap... Conclave is STILL Cont to Cap... Town is still not Cont to Cap... at least Cap isn't freaking out about not being Cont to Cap.

Can someone pls explain?

UPDATE: The Conclave has joined the "Territory Not Contiguous with Capital" Musical Chairs Game my Cities are apparently playing.

I have shared a Screenshot... if someone would be so kind as to explain how to link it here I'll go do that, in the meantime it's the only screenshot I've shared of Fallen Enchantress. Cap is furthest Right and every city has now said "Not Contiguous" at some point in this game, and every city but the one right next to the cap has said "I am Contiguous" while the one next to it was saying the opposite. I have no idea wth is going on.

 

Here's the Screenshot

And yes, that was mostly copy pasted from the Steam Thread.

Have seen something like that in several games with older version/s of FELH - havent tried 3.0 so far. Probably one of the many "random weird" bugs. I do not know what (if there is anything in particular) triggers it.

as of October 2024 game still has the BUG of changing previously a city contiguous via territory to your capital to being non contiguous and hence incurring the 15% city unrest debuff. in my own game this BUG did not appear until I started raising land (earth 3 magic spell) to turn cliff coastal or cliff lake bordering tiles into beaches. which in turn can be used to land units on a transport ship or to reach by default unreachable or gated off map areas (I was playing as Lord Relias of Altar in the Anthys [2nd] scenario)

strangely enough the BUG comes and goes. eventually I decided once I was generating enough mana to just use a city enchantment slot to erase this BUG with the 250 mana 'bless city' which erases 25% if city unrest, more than the 15% added by the city non contiguous bug
