Cant Build Roads

[Pete9991]

I have industrial points. I want dirt roads.

I left click on my main city. I right click the square away from it to build one road on one hex.

I tells me the cost in the bottom left.

Left or right clicking does nothing. What am I doing wrong?

Can you post a link to an screenshot?

So... might have been looking at my metal stockpile and not my industrial points...

Good news is I build a road!

I have the same problem even with enough IP.. are there other constraints than IP?

[KingHalford]

Make sure you're building from your SHQ outwards. That means that you need to be connected to a road network already connected to the SHQ. You can't build from the outside in, so to speak.

Its probably an AP Penalty on the Hex. Or in other words a Hex you conquered this turn. A Hex has to have been in your control at start of turn in order to build a road on it.

Will provide a text actually telling you this in the upcoming patch later today.

best,
