Are districts functional when placed outside the 3 hexes radius?

[Ron Wee]

What can I build on tiles 4 or more hexes away from city center?
Neighborhoods? Farms? (does the housing bonus still count?)

Thanx

 

[Leyrann]

You can't build districts there, you can't work farms etc there. Not sure about the housing bonus from farms, but tbh I doubt it counts.

 

[Ron Wee]

If a natural wonder is inside my border, but 5 hexes away from city center, will it provide any bonus?

Natural wonders typically give bonuses through tile yields, so they only give a bonus if you can work the tiles themselves or, for most natural wonders, the tiles next to it.

The only use for tiles 4 hexes away are Adjacent bonuses. I.E. build a farm on 4th Hex to boost the 2 farms on the 3rd hexes. If that 4th Hex cant be used by another city then maybe a Fort, Air Strip or Missile Silo from Military Engineers.

I'd like to add that you should connect all resources (except bonus) inside your borders. You don't have to work luxuries and strategic resources to receive them. And resorts can also be outside the 3 hex ring and you'll get the the tourism.

 

[Ron Wee]

What about the national parks? Will it give bonus if outside 3-hex radius? What if 2 tiles of the parks are inside and 2 are outsides?

It gives its yield regardless where it is. You can't work it anyway.

 

[Ron Wee]

So it's best to make national parks outside the 3-tiles radius?

Well... getting a chance to build a NP completely outside the 3-tile radius is almost non-existent. Usually it's well into the 3-tile radius or one tile going further out. A NP is investment, but usually worth it. In the late game you can usually afford to lose some tiles in some cities. Or even found cities just for NPs and then build the NPs close to the city center taking up lots of otherwise workable tiles.

I am not quite sure about it.

So one should build roads to mines, plantations, etc? This is news to me for Civ 6.

 

[Nigel_Tufnel2]

Since all 4 NP tiles have to be in the same city, doesn't that limit them to workable tiles? (Or else how would you know what tiles are within a particular city?)

Edit - I guess the tile Tooltip tells you what city has the tile - but you can't change anything beyond the 3rd ring, right?).

No. Just build improvements over resources. Not like in older civs in which You connect with roads.

That's news to me. Interesting. And the same goes for third-ring districts, right?

Build them on Impassables.

 

[andydtoma]

You can build Seaside resorts outside the 3 hexes limit

I really don't understand the whole "must be owned by the same city" requirement. It just makes national parks annoying to micromanage, especially in the instance you identify where you have available tiles in the 4th/5th ring but they are owned by different cities, and there's nothing you can do about it.

Can you imagine if there was no Grand Canyon National Park because it splits some land between Phoenix & Las Vegas? Preposterous!

I'm guessing it's a coding limitation more than a gameplay decision, as all other 'improvements' are associated with one city.

How do you place a NP? I bought a Naturalist with faith and sent him all over the map and couldn't find a place it was ok to place a NP.
