A possible Hammurabi bug

[DogeEnricoDandolo]

I found that if the first copy of a specialty district is one that you conquer from another civ, you won't get the first building upon city capture. However, when you try to build that district yourself for the first time, since the game thinks you already built it before, you won't get the first building either.

I don't think it is supposed to function this way.

Do you have a save?

I saw this in my first game with Hammurabi too. I didn't get around to building an IZ yet and conquered England's "empire". They had an IZ somewhere, and mine was done a few turns later. Did not get the first building, and England didn't have it either.

I don't have the save, but it is pretty easy to confirm, conquering neighbors with Babylon is a pretty common strat I've seen.

I think this is " working as intended". IIRC, you don't get a free melee unit when you conquer a city on a different continent when playing Victoria. And, you still won't get one if you subsequently build a city on that continent.

I don't see a problem here.

Yeah but it's much easier for Firaxis if when reporting a possible bug you include a save file.

I can try to reconstruct another save file for that situation, since the one I have right now has mods.

And she should have the free melee unit for that as well. The two descriptions clearly state "The first city you found" and "The first specialty district of a type you build", it is understandable if they don't count conquered infrastructure, but that conquered piece should not count against you.

Just because it does the same bug elsewhere, doesn't mean it's not a bug. If it says the first one you build, then the first one you build should give you one unless it says otherwise.

It kinda nerfs Babylon pretty hard. Sounds like they'd struggle with an SV anyway, Dom takes away a good portion of their LUA if this isn't a bug.

"When you build the first", means 1: that district shall be "the first", 2: that district shall be "build", not "capture".

I think intentionally you shall meet both the conditions for it to work. So it works fine here.
