Religion help

[BOndTriumph]

Hey guys, just started a game on the new console version, and for the life of me I cannot get missionaries (or any religious units) to work. I have constructed a holy site, used John the Baptist to found Protestantism, and built a temple... the missionaries, apostles, and warrior monks are available in my city screen, and I have more than enough faith to pay for them, but for some reason they won't add to que. I cannot figure out how to rush any units or buildings with gold either... I've looked through all the different control options and can't figure out what I'm missing. Thanks for any help you guys may have or maybe you're having the same issue?

No add to que option...

I've not been able to mess around with this sonce the update, but...
Previously you didn't build religious units using production, you had to purchase them using faith. On the Switch, that was using "R", in a similar manner to how you purchase units using gold using the "L" button (they're the top shoulder buttons, if you're on Xbox or PS hopefully the corresponding buttons will have the same functions).

Since you would always be instant buying the religious units, it wouod make no sense to have them queued.

Hopefully that resolves your problem. I can play around tomorrow to see if I can replicate your problem otherwise.

I will try it out again, I went through all of the buttons, but I am pretty sure I watched a video of them using LB as the purchase option, I may need to uninstall and reinstall because I am pretty sure the gold purchase button was the same. I'll let you know how it goes.

Just had a thought. Towards the top of the menu, it has the option to check a box for queue, is that unchecked?

I've not bought with faith since the uodate, but with gold you can't buy a unit with gold if the queue box is checked (it is checked in your screenshot), you have to uncheck it before you can buy a unit. Stands to reason that this is the same for using faith to buy units too. Try unchecking the queue option then buying the unit, it should work. RB for faith, LB for gold.

Don't ask me why it works like that, I have no idea and it gets frustrating having to switch between the two modes!

Note: I made a mistake confusing the left and right shoulder buttons and have corrected my posts.

Yeah, it seems you are unable to buy units if you have the queue option checked. Unchecking it should do the trick.

EUREKA!!! THANKS GUYS!! Add to queue unchecked and have no problem.

Worked like a charm, thanks!

I’d been having the exact same problem as this guy. I really hope that this is the answer I’ve been looking for thanks.
