when i place cities, i am told, that i cannot found a city within 4 tiles of other city, this does not seem true for the ai, because i see alot of cities, thats within 3 tiles, why is that?

Four tiles apart aka three tiles in between.

Do share your screenshots of the AI placing theirs two tile apart!
(Hint: it doesn't happen)
 
france have a city 3 tiles away from a city, that spain setup later, between them are a mountain and a hill and its an giant earth map, so its south france and north spain we are talking here :)

also how do you screen shot ingame? as my normal program, just gave me a black screen???
 
F12 is screen shot, but it also forced me out of the game and loaded another for some reason???

i am current playing as germany, same map, so not allowed to settle within 3 tiles of another city, now at war with france and have to kill a dutch city, to get too them, but notished that the dutch city have been setup only 3 tiles away from Paris, its not the dutch capital, but their second city, so its also have only 2 tiles between them, how come they are allowed to place cities this close???

I believe the map allows for cities to be placed two tiles apart (that is if it is the yet not another version), to give the european civs a chance to expand
 
yes, its for yet not another earth map, playing on a giant map, but i am not allowed to setup this close, only the ai??
 
I don't understand that, whenever I play this map I am allowed to, try reporting this to the creator after veryfying the problem with pics. If you want to take photos, you may want to change the hotkey.
 
Perhaps. I believ there is a thread in the custom maps section where you could ask this question, as the people there would have much better idea.
 
i will contact the creator, because i am not allowed to build cities this close, only the ai, thats annoying
 
not sure about the expansion , but in vanilla - if they are not on the same landmass, distance does not matter.

F12 used to do that to me too, (load another game) but it stopped after the pre GnK patch.
