If I have, for example, one source of saltpepper (no trade), can it be exhausted?

All resources except horses and rubber can be exhausted unless you change it in the editor.A true ally stabs you in the front.

How does a resource run out? If you have your workers use it? What if you just leave it alone (but are still connected to it)? Or is it just random chance?"You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: when men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours."--General Sir Charles James NapierComment

If it is connected to a road, it can run out. Even if you aren't building units that require it.
The rates (actually it's a random percentage chance) at which they run out are in the editor (and my testing shows that the numbers are correct).Seemingly Benign

I think by move they mean that other resources can be used up. They could then appear some place else in the map and if you are lucky it could be within your empire.Comment

It is even possible for it to be exhausted, but reappear in the exact same spotComment

I have observed that apparently, you can prevent the resource to disappear if you reload one turn before and move an unit on the resource location. However it may have changed with one of the patch."An eye for eye only ends up making the whole world blind" - GandhiComment

This could work because many actions use the RNG and if it happens in a different order it could not get selected for moving. BTW, this is known as cheatingOriginally posted by Menlas

Yes, but it's mush easier bu just turning off the preservation of the seed. Then you could just reload and do the same things but have a chance that it will not disappear. (But that's the Civ2 way of cheatingOriginally posted by WarpStorm
