Political Philosophy inspiration after 2 city-states

[Leyrann]

Met two city-states, got the eureka for political philosophy. I also did not meet a city-state that got conquered or something like that.

EDIT: Also, no I did not get it out of a goody hut or something like that.

I think that just happened in my game, too. In my game, I think it had something to do with a third CS getting conquered halfway around the undiscovered world, which I got notified of right around the time I got the inspiration bonus.

I indeed had a conquered city-state a bit earlier too. It was a while before I met my second city-state though. That said, wouldn't be surprised if that's the cause of the bug; it may just count conquered city states as known ones for some reason.

I've had this happen in two games now. In both cases I met one city-state, then a (different) city-state was eliminated, and then I met a second city-state which triggered the boost for Political Philosophy.

This behavior is new with v.1.0.0.129. Previously, the defeat of city-states would not count as making contact for the purposes of boosting Political Philosophy.

Attached is a saved game demonstrating this situation. On load, you will note that I have not yet triggered the inspiration for Political Philosophy and that I have already met two city-states. End the turn, and during AI moves a city-state is eliminated, which triggers the inspiration for Political Philosophy. At the start of the next turn I have still only met those same two city-states.

the title said it all. nominally you should meet 3 city states to trigger the inspiration, but it actually triggers after meeting the second. even in city states screen, i only see 2. I've seen it happen in several games.

usually happens when you get a notification that a player killed an unknown CS

This happens when a city state is eliminated. Apparently, eliminated city states count towards the city states you know. The bug was introduced with the Spring Patch.
