Hi all!

First thing first:
-Civ4 BTS v3.19
-Huge map
-Terra
-Epic game speed
-Chieftain difficulty

Suleyman of Ottomans (Philosophical, imperialistic)

And
-I have forges and factories available in all cities (more than 8)
-Steel have already been researched
-Some cities have two national wonders, some one and most none!
-Mining Inc. expanded to almost every city. Few exceptions (Don't know whether it's an important point or not!)
-For the access to coal and iron please see my city screen below (cause maybe there's something I am missing?)



Yet I can not build Ironworks. How about that :(

Any help please?
 
Can you post a save? If not, post a screenie that shows:
-Nat wonders present in city ( if you have two nat wonders built in that city you can't build more there)
-The part of the queue that shows possible buildings and wonders ( basically scroll it down , instead of showing possible units )

Anyway, my first guess is that you have IW on queue somewhere eles or that you actually already have it done elsewhere ( in a city you flipped or that was gifted to you, given that nat wonders are only destroyed in those situations if you already have them done elsewhere ).

Rolo, great try thanks. As, said above some ciities have two national womders, whereas some only one and most of the cities don't posses any wonders at all. As you can imagine, I tried at any city but the thing is that you can not see the ironworks icon at city prod. screen at the bottom of the city screen at all. None what so ever!

But if you can have the time and give it a shot, please be my guest. Here's the save file link

You are taking lot of trouble on my behalf. I really appreciate it. Thank you very much :)

PS: What is "IW" :blush:
 
You don't have an Ironworks in a queue somewhere by accident? Or (not sure if this is possible) captured a city with one in it from the enemy?

Good point. But even if I had it queued somewhere, isn't it supposed to show ironwork (or x building, for that matter) blacked out at the bottom of the city screen (assuming I had it queued) :(
 
Don't know. never really thought about it. But if you actually have one somewhere, without realizing it that could be the problem. And I can't check.

Alright, maybe start all over and rephrase it :(:(
Given the facts (please see the 1st post above), I can not see ironworks build option in any of my cities. Must also add that I have not built it anywhere or haven't captured any city with it (because my invasion days were ages ago)

I don't know. Maybe a bug :confused: It's remote though.
Thanks everybody for your efforts. Please bring anything you got in your mind
 
Easy answer. Ironworks is in Karaman, just south of your capital.

Next time post directly your save on this website, getting the file from rapidshare is just so annoying...

I am so embarrassed :blush: :blush:
I am terribly sorry everyone and apologize to each and everyone of you who took time and tried to help me.
Guess, I was seriously involved with my privateers causing havoc on intercontinental routes ;)

And Juju giving hard times because of RS was not my intention at all. I know how annoying it is to wait before download. Sorry about that.

and thanks again
