I've been working on a huge marathon game as Peter trying to get the trans-Siberian railroad achievement. Are there any hidden requirements? The description simply says:
Playing as Russia, have a city that is at least 60 tiles away from your capital, connected by a Trade Route and road at the start of the turn.
My Novgorod is definitely more than 60 tiles from St Petersburg, not only via the road but also as the crow flies. I have counted several times. Once I had trading posts at enough intermediary cities to connect the two, I sent a trader from St Petersburg to Novgorod. There was already a competed road between the two. But the achievement didn't trigger.
So a few turns later, I sent one from Novgorod to St Petersburg in case direction mattered. Still no trigger.
This morning, I made sure that I was signed into Steam and that my internet connection was working, loaded up the game, and competed another turn. Still nothing.
Any ideas? The road does go through other civs and city state's territory; is that a problem? There are no water connections involved, so that's not it. Could marathon speed be an issue somehow?
(I'll post a save and screenshots later if someone wants; the kids have requisitioned the computer atm.)
