I meant units like "Spartan Warrior" for example.?
Oh I missed that change! (kept playing the february realease until a few weeks ago)
The option in the gamestart menu still exists though. Or is that for units like Assassin, to limit that to 3?

Another quick question: I am pretty sure I choose the option to limit cultural units (so you get max 15 of them)
And in the advanced start menu it is tagged (and I am pretty sure I tagged it before I started the game), but in game it doesn't seem activated as I can get unlimited special cultural units. I play with the latest SVN. Started a week ago or so and updated the SVN in the meantime (with recalculations)

Is this option not working atm?
And what is the shortcut to check the pre game option while ingame? Just to make sure to see the option really is on (and I am not only thinking I tagged the box before I started)
F8 should show a window for which one tab has current game options, which you can edit in world builder if you made a mistake.

Many cultural units were changed recently to have increasing costs per unit in play, rather than a hard limit, though this is still a work in progress.

Edit: lol whoops the previous replies failed to load somehow, didn't see was already answered
 
Good day,
First time poster, been playing for years. Currently running a playthrough as the Romans, discovered Tribalism, but am still unable to build a Tribe in Rome. In fact, it's not even on the unit list in the city. It IS in the pedia though.

Is there a requirement for the Tribe beyond the tech Tribalism that I may not be fulfilling? I thought I only needed the tech.

You only need the tech. The unit should show up the next turn in the unit build list After Tribalism is researched.

What version are you using?

Yes I thought maybe it was a next turn thing, so tried that. Didn't show up even after 9 turns and another tech finished. I was using SVN about 48h old, just before the last save breaking update. I have updated the SVN and restarted, in hopes it does not happen again. I still have the savegame. Would it help someone to see it, or something else?

Did you select some unit filter?
 
Yeah, especially if you start after savebreaking SVN, that happened recently - few options were removed.

Started prior to the savebreaking SVN. But yeah, I suppose it's a possibility but I can't even fire up the savegame to check now that I've updated. Strange fluke. There were other things happening too, like animals coming into my territory, other little weird things. I did start the game after returning to the main menu from a different game, which I hear is a no no... but yeah, other than that I'm not sure what it could have been.

Gotta push through a hundred thousand or so more years to see if it happens again :lol:. Thanks for the help!
 
Ok. Made it to Tribalism with another playthrough on the up to date SVN. Once again, no Tribe is available to build. The games settings are correct, no one city challenge. No filters are selected. It is several turns past when I discovered Tribalism. I can't think of anything else to check. What should my next steps be? I'll leave the game open until I hear back in case there is some way I can better prove the issue exists.
 
Are you sure you don't have one city challenge, one can check the game options on the red fist button close to the BUG option button under treasury.

I can train tribes in this game I just started... Untitled-1.jpg

Yessir. I am 100% sure. All I can think is that this started when I updated from the stable release 40.whatever to SVN earlier this week. Since then in my two play throughs I haven’t been able to make tribes. Is there a cache or something I can clear? Would something like that even cause this? I’m very confused.
 
I know it's a rude and stupid question, but are you sure you UPDATED properly?
As in, totally wiped the old folder and correctly exported the new version into an empty folder, right?
I expect you to say YES, but you never know.
