Is the achievement bugged? I tried to get it as Rome last month, but chalked up the failure to the Roman bath. Tonight I tried to get it as Mongolia, no idea why it failed.

The city already had its aqueduct, dam, and canal. I tried putting railroad in the city center and building a mountain tunnel both the turn before and the turn after the golden gate bridge completed, and did not trigger the achievement either time.

The achievement has been at 0.1% for months. That doesn't prove anything, but is consistent with the hypothesis that it's bugged.

Has anyone gotten the achievement recently? If so, any chance you remember the exact order you competed stuff in? Thanks!

I'm running a large handful of mods, so I don't think my save would work for an official bug report.
 
Yes, around 2 months ago. I conquered a city state for the city, but I built everything myself. I think it went aqueduct, dam, canal, bridge, railroad, tunnel, but it's been a while so that could be wrong. I had 0 mods installed at the time, so I bet that is your problem. Are you absolutely sure that all of your stuff is owned by that city, and not in another? You didn't take that city from Rome did you? A bath might turn into an aqueduct, but it might still be a bath. Idk good luck though.

Thanks for the info! I'm certain everything is in the city - it doesn't border my other cities. It must be a mod interfering in some weird way. I'll play a completely unmodded game next.
 
Yes I also got it for my 246th and final achievement in mid-October. Again it was through conquering a suitably-placed city state. Can't remember the exact build order but the last build was a railroad IIRC. Again no mods. Good luck, it is surprisingly hard to find a site, I thought it would be a fairly easy achievement but not as it turned out.

Thanks, good to have more confirmation it's doable under the current patch.
 
And .... The achievement triggered the turn after I completed the golden gate bridge. :woohoo:

Totally didn't expect it, I'd returned to the game to finish up a victory for the HOF.

Thanks for the assistance, turns out all I needed was patience. :p
 
Congratulations! I think it also triggered the turn after completion in my game IIRC but I forgot to mention it in my post. Sorry!!
