I just dug out the save where I had the problem AH referred to, i.e. my cap refused to celebrate, at least on on odd number sizes.

What could be wrong with this city structure War? Great land but the cap is on the far East of the empire.

At this stage I'm still in Monarchy with 10 cities.
Usually I'm in Rep with 6-8 cities and don't have this problem. I've had this problem before, but never in my cap, and always with more than 8 cities.

oh sorry , my mistake

Yes, it always irritates me when the city next to my capital has less trade but celebrates while my capital won't. Hmmm, maybe we should post this in the strategy forum and see if anyone would look into it.

Hehe tell Samson there's a tricky problem, and it might well just go away.

That is what I had in mind
He's so good at those types of things.

I'm just wondering if it's to do with the civ program counting through each city square in all cities in build order and when it gets to a certain square it goes to unhappy or neutral. Just like when you build a new city and another 'random' city gets unhappier.

[deity]

What I'm thinking is that it is a function of the total number of cities / squares where an odd count is truncted. With 6 cities going to size 7 they all get there; with 8 cities maybe one will stay at Size 3 but celebrate on 4....

But why would your capital suffer more than your second or third city? It's those types of things that make you think there's a bug somewhere.

A bug... in Civ II... heaven forbid

Yeah, it does make you wonder.
