Abandoning cities

[Lord Emsworth]

Just what is up with those cities that just do not want to complete that last settler which is supposed to abandon the city? Sometimes it works fine, but sometimes it doesn't. I cannot make out any pattern.

Also, do I get a rep hit if I abandon a conquered city that way?

 

[TimBentley]

If a city is at size 2 when it completes the settler and is not growing, it will ask you if you want to abandon. No rep hit; you get the same attitude hit as razing it would.

Ah, I see, it has to do with the growth. Thanks a lot.
