Can't build trade post on trade route.

[CraftyScreen]

Navasirika sure looks like it's on a major trade route. That's a big shiny line running right through it. Why is the game telling me it's not on a major trade route?

Have you modded something? That doesn't look right.

I don't even know how to mod things. This is a straight Ironman run from 867.

Well according to your screenshot the trade routes are not there, you can see on mine it doesn't end and the post can be built.

Do you have a savegame you can share? Also what is your checksum?

Here's a link to my save game:

Checksum is NFUF.

Thanks so much!

It's version 2.4.5. I'm running Old Gods, Rajas, Sunset Invasion, Republic, Legacy of Rome and Sword of Islam. Ruler Designer is enabled but I didn't use it.

I just loaded the game and I could build the trade post. There appears to be a problem with your install if that trade routes are not drawing in properly. Have you tried running a verify on steam?

The savegame is fine.

I guess you have Horse Lords and as far as i know it requires HL to build a trade post there.
Actually i thought the whole silk road would be a HL feature...and yes it is.

I don't have HL just like Craftyscreen and it looks the same for me, the cut off road i mean and can't build a trade post either. So yeah, missing DLC i suppose.

So it's either it's only bug or it's a bug and intended as a troll teaser by PDS.
Who knows...


edit: ...and there was a (potential) bug in 2.4.2 with merchant republics not able to build trade ports on the silk road: https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/foru...nable-to-build-tradepost-on-silk-road.872915/, but that's probably completely unrelated.

If that's the case it shouldn't be showing on the map. I will have a look at it later.

I don't have Horse Lords. I verified my files. No change. Then I deleted and reinstalled the game. The trade routes entirely disappeared for a while, and then reappeared, but still cut off, and no luck for Navasirika.

It's not possibly this is a Mac thing, is it? I'm running El Capitan.

I don't have Horse Lords.....

No it's not a Mac thing, as i said i don't have Horse Lords as well ( on Windows) and get this cut off trade route too and the possibility to build a trade post there is a DLC feature.
Thus it's no bug that you can't build the trade post, but it's a bug that the silk road is actually partially included and displayed in game.
