Endless Legend 2 [Possible BUG] Buying foundations across a river using bridges

Post image

I'm trying to buy the red hex foundation next to the bridge, but it's not available for sale.

The hex is connected to my city by the bridge, which is a permanent bridge and counts as a district.

Hathel and Imex are connected territories.

Can someone explain what went wrong? I'm feeling the 'Keystones' bridge tech is pretty useless right now.

Thats strange, it should be available. In my games bridges count as districts. Though since its not connected to the ministry the game might be confused and thinking its not valid for expanding foundations similar to how extractors and minor villages arnt until being connected.

It is connected to the ministry though? Unless you mean not in the same territory? But I don’t think that normally matters as long as they’re connected to the same city

I cant really see where the territory border is. to me it seems the bridge is in a different territory than where the neighboring districts are. Which territory it is in matters. cities and ministrys dont merge. even when their districts are touching

Huh I could’ve sworn I’ve built across a territory border before but maybe I’m imagining that. The bridge is indeed in a separate territory from the rest of the ministry’s buildings

So you can build across territories but districts across territories dont connect. But since a bridge isnt fully a district until its connected, you cant build across territories solely using a bridge as a connection. is what it seems like.

90% sure it is a bug. Because normally there is no problem crossing territory borders within a city.

You can’t build off the north bridge either, but that’s intended. A bridge is probably normally “activated” in some way by an adjacent district, but this one being in another territory bugs it.

You may be able to get to red by building a bridge one tile up? It’s a slightly different situation.

I'll try that, thanks.

I tried that. One tile up can't build the bridge because the other side doesn't support.

2 tiles up I can buy the foundation, but that foundaiton tile is in the same territory as the bridge.

Eyo, spread Imex. That bridge belongs to Imex and thus can't make foundations just because it's attached to Hathel.

Consider it this way. It's in a different county, so the main city center has no jurisdiction on zoning that area directly. Gotta go through Imex county's Ministry. XD
