Can't colonize Louisiana

[morMota]

I have a problem with colonization. Everything worked perfect, while colonizing Canada region with Scandinavia, but when I tried to go on the next region(New Louisiana) I could only colonize 3 territory, and after that, it says that the closest core with a port is Stockholm(2000 range away). I think I should be able to colonize next to my core territory.

On the screenshot, on the north side(Vinland) is my colonial nation, the selected province is my core, and I can't continue to colonize Minnesota for example.

Try save and reload. I think it is a bug

I already try to reload several times, but nothing changed. The same goes for Sausk, Michigan, Fox, Winnipego, as Menominee(the province on the east side with army on it) is already core. Only Pota something on the south-east side is not a full grown city yet. I was only able to colonize this 3 province.

The problem here is that neither you nor Vinland has the colonial range to colonize the next to your colonies. Currently you can't combine your colonial range, so Vinland's range is blocked by your colonies, and your your provinces are landlocked and are useless for colonial range. If you can manage to create Louisiana you should be able to colonize further, if they have the necessary range, which they might not if you colonize the coast and they get a capital there that's not connected to their northern provinces.

I will try to create it, there is an indian tribe, so I can get enough territory to create a colonial nation. The one thing i do not understand, that in theory, Vinland gives me flett basin rights. So I should be able to use their colonial range, to continue colonizing. Or it's only counts towards coastal province?

 

[morMota]

I formed Danish-Louisiana and now it has 5 core provinces, Menominee, Chippawa, and 3 other down to south(those are cores too). Menominee is the capital, as shown on the picture but I still can't continue to colonize Sauk. It is next to the capital, with 0< base tax. Am I missing something?

Well, that's weird... Have you tried restarting the game again? What does the colonial range map-mode show?

 

[morMota]

I tried restarting, but after searching several forum posts, I found that many have reported this bug already, so I think there is only one solution: wait for bug fix.

Anyone got this working in the latest beta patch, because I read the thread, and they wrote in the patchlog that by:"Adding subjects will now update borderdistances" this should be fixed, but I still can't colonize. Should I raise a formal bug report?

I don't play beta but you probably should report it. Their fix doesn't appear to be working.
