Only for the city in which it is located. Note that if the same resource can be worked by two cities, it only counts for the city to which it is closest (not necessarily the city whose culture borders first claim it).

But how are ties resolved? Let's say both cities have that resource in the 3rd ring, who gets access to the building?

Hi there, I just bought a new alienware laptop with a 17.3" 4K screen and when i put the game settings to 3840 x 2160 for 4K, the screen is tiny and alternately some other game that i tried this on the screen was full but the text super tiny. I tried to change setting for windows and im not seeing th old stand options i was used to with win7

Hi folks, can the tiles in Civ 5 be named (for athmospheric reasons) as in Civ 4? (like "Sea of the Silver Waves" and stuff like this)

 

[killmeplease]

is Aristocracy and Monarchy happiness global or local?

 

[Acken]

Aristocracy is global
Monarchy diminishes unhappiness (so equivalent to global).

Not without a mod if possible at all.

There are no ties. Each tile is affected to a specific city when acquiring the tile and this cannot be changed.

are there mods for:
- forbid the automated workers to build roads/railroads.

- show in the UI of inquisitors an icon of religion, which an inquisitor is representing (like missionaries & prophets have).

- show which maps are continuous/borderless cylinders and which maps are limited by borders and number of players & city-states (and how many is the limit).

Do I get the wonder bonus if I PUPPET an enemy capital with wonders in it?

Usually I always annexed them so I did not know the answer because of that.

What is the tech progress of city states based on? Do they research techs like a regular civ or do they automatically receive them for free when more than half of the world has them or something?

Yes.

It gets techs for free once enough major civ have it. 40% I believe.

Don't know the others, but the enhanced user interface (available at civfanatics) adds this feature. It's handy!

Primacide, i have enchanced ui but it doesn't show it :/

I do not believe this is correct. In my current game my capital extended it's border to take in a marble tile. I founded my second city which was closer to the marble than my capital and immediately got the notification that my second city had access to marble even though that marble was NOT within its own cultural border.

I am sure that the Marble was 4+ hexes from your cap and 3- hexes from your new expo.

I play G&K and my reply was specific to this statement: "There are no ties. Each tile is affected to a specific city when acquiring the tile and this cannot be changed."

Based on my experience it does not matter which city acquired the tile it if a closer city is built that city will acquire the resource.

 

[beetle]

^^ I agree that there are no ties. If in your example the was marble 3 hexes from the cap and improved, then it would have already been assigned to the cap. So putting down an expo next to the Marble should not have generated the notification message. Even if it did, I would wager that it did not unlock stoneworks in the expo.

Without screen shots or the like, it is difficult to speculate as to what is going on.

 

[Browd]

Actually, dropping an expo that is closer to the marble tile may cause that tile to be reassigned to the expo, with the result that the capital would no longer "own" that tile (for purposes of the wonder bonus or to build stoneworks).

That's probably what happens. Capturing cities or planting cities can cause tile reassignments.

Can someone help me with a quick question?

City states are asking me to connect a resource I already have connected. I've ensured someone is working the tile, and the resources is not being traded.

Why won't they acknowledge this? Is this a bug or something? Is there a workaround?

Thank you!
