Anybody have cities that got stuck?

My cities said growth in 1 turn, but they never grew. I was playing a rather difficult transcend game in a poor starting location. I was determined to win. I quit though. It's kind of hard when your cities won't grow from size 2 to size 3. Or in some cases size 1 to size 2.

Never heard of that 'feature', unless you are pop-booming. Then you must have the extra nuts to fully support it or no growth. You're not in a GA are you?

Do you have -3 growth SE settings? Maybe Aki (-1) with green economic (-2)?

I've hit -3 growth had that with Swen and Green. It was actually handy, no more drone riots, ever. At one point, halfway through my "pop stall" I switched to planned to let all the accumulated food turn into new citizens for new pods. Then I switched back to green for whatever no good wormrape I was up to.

Aki or Svengaard (sp?) with green.
Solution: build a creche or trigger a GA.

****, I might have had -3 growth. Let me check. I was using Aki.

[Dis]

yep, I had her and a -3 growth. Which it says is near zero population growth.

I knew there was a reason I didn't like aki.

What exactly does that mean, near zero growth? I thought it was just +30% nutrients needed to grow?

[GeoModder]

It simply means that your bases won't grow when the storebox is full of nutrients. And you lose all the stored nutrients as well when your base can't grow for the -30% growthrate.
