I am playing warlords and noticed that I cant build hindu monasteries, nor can I build mandirs either. Its my state religion so it should be possible, but its not even on the list of things I can build. In my current game, there is one mandir under construction, but I cant build them anywhere else. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? Its causing me quite a bit of trouble since I cant make missionaries without them.
 
having a religion as a state religion is not sufficient to build religious building. You need to have hinduism in every city in which you want to build such buildings. Is that the case?
 
Hinduism has spread to the cities I am trying to build monasteries in. But it has not spread to ALL of my cities yet, which is why I want to build missionaries in the first place. I've played this game quite a few times and have never run into this problem before.
 
OK, to build a hindu monsatery, Hinduism must be present in the city (your state religion is irrelevant), you must not have discovered scientific method, and you must not already have a hindu monastery. Those are the only requirements, so it seems most likely they have gone obsolete due to scientific method.

To build a hindu mandir, the religion must be present in the city, the city must have a hindu temple, and you must have X number of hindu temples existing in your empire. (X varies on map size. On a normal map you need 3 hindu temples for every hindu mandir.
 
if you have researched scientific method, then revolt back to organized religion and you can build hindu missionarys.


I have never tried that before but i think it'll work.
 
I hadnt yet researched scientific method so theres no logical reason I should not be able to build monasteries. I also ran into another problem. I was trying to make friends with another civ by cutting off trade with their rival civ. But a few turns later they warned me I should stop trading with their enemies, which I had already done! That frustrated me so I just gave up on and started a new game.

Maybe those bugs were cause due to the fact I was using a nocd patch so I didnt have to switch disks constantly. I installed Beyond the Sword yesterday and am using the disk again so hopefully those problems will not be an issue anymore.
