My favorite game: Why aren't these settlements connected? (Image)

[BrianKindly]

Any ideas?

1. Only 4 tiles away over water
2. Both have water districts, even bought ports on both to be sure
3. Valencia is connected via water to further settlements
4. Tried setting Tampico to a fishing town
5. Tried using a merchant to create a route
6. You can see that Valencia has connections to 5 cities and 1 fishing town

You probably need to build ports and railroads in each and wait a random number of turns…

Is that a mod that shows the connections or have I been missing an obvious UI?

Why would that be the case?

*Update: Mod management just became a lot easier with CivMods, created by @leonardify. You can simply CLICK HERE to install this curated UI & QoL package, and keep them all updated with one click! (Package Updated April 2nd)*

I dug into the mods available and found the ones that are objective improvements to the game's UI and QoL, making the game easier to understand. I thought having a list together could be helpful for other players who are discouraged by any lack of function or information. Importantly, these mods all work together...

Seriously everyone needs to get CivMods. It's almost as much a game changer as the mods themselves. It tells you when they update, then with one click downloads and replaces the old version for you. Nice clean UI. You can browse new stuff from the application. I have 26 mods on there, it autodetected what I already had when I got it. I have one of those disabled and there are no conflicts at all running 25 with CivMods. Just open it to check for updates, click to update, then launch the game.
