Space Race problems

[bacon_grease]

Please forgive me if this has been answered before, but I am having a heck of a time with the Space Race.

I have built the whole ship, with the exception of the SS Engine. How on earth do I build this improvement?

My current game is currently researching Future Tech2, so technology shouldn't be an issue. When I open my capitol city screen and hover the pointer over the "SS Engine" icon, it says "Team project" What does that mean? Do I have to build it in two cities at once? If so, how do I do that?

Thanks!

Did you Tech fusion?

bacon_grease,

Welcome to CivFanatics!

I'm a little at a loss on this one myself, as the 'mechanics' of building the Engine(s) is really no different from building other parts.

My guess is;

(a.) your game isn't patched or has some unusual mod that could have messed things up for you ... sounds unlikely, but could be possible.

(b.) you have put both SS Engines in your build queues in your cities already, but have placed some other build before them - e.g. build 'Research' or ongoing building of 'Mechanical Infantry*' or something like that. Just check every city's build queues to ensure they're not there already.

Thanks!

CamH, it was hidden in some obscure, non-productive city's production cue. Thanks for the suggestion, I probably wouldn't have found it.

I really appreciate the help!

Glad it's fixed ... when I said "Engines" I should explain that BtS allows you to build a second Engine on your spaceship - not the case with vanilla or Warlords.
