Workers not building railroads Inflate your Upload Space

Sometimes, not every game, but sometimes my workers will not build railroads after the discovery of Steam Engine. The options is not available and they do not automatically do it either. My competors are building tracks all over the place! I'm assuming a bug, but have not seen it written about. Anyone know about this? Thanks!

Building RR's requires coal, make sure you have coal.

It requires iron too, but it is not a new strategic resource.
You must also check that you are not trading one of these resources to another civ. Each time I have two sources of one strategic resource and trade the excess one, if I lose one source (depletion or road destruction) it is always the one I use and not the one I trade.

I don't think that's it: you still have a trade agreement to comply with. Thus thta trade agreement uses the only source of that resource you have. Makes sense to me.

Tired of ads?

I think Zulu is right here. If you wouldn't keep the trade running, you would risk a war.

Crazy . . . I own as much land and as many cities as the remaining 4 civs combined, but had no coal and they each did. Anyway, thanks for pointing out my oversite
