Should there be a Hellenistic Polis building in Syrakousai?

[QuintusSertorius]

Some others that may have been overlooked too:

Olbia:



Histria:



Chersonesos:

I believe you are absolutely correct about this. I will look into fixing it internally and for now yeah just add:

building
{
type hinterland_hellenistic_polis polis_three
}

into the entry for Syrakousai in desc_strat.txt and probably give the rest polis_one. The same could be done for Trapezous.
@paullus should probably give a final opinion

[QuintusSertorius]

Thanks for that, I wasn't sure whether anyone had seen this. It's not a "game-breaking bug" or anything, just an omission that can make development difficult for some factions.

I thought polis_three for Syrakousai (since it's huge) and polis_one for all the others sounded right.

I wasn't sure about Trapezous, but it probably should have one too, good catch.

[QuintusSertorius]

Some others that perhaps should also have a polis_one: Lilibeo (where there were definitely Greek populations in western Sicily), Messana (same again), Halikarnassos (there's an "Unknown Building Type" there - is there an error with the Hellenistic Polis?), Rhegion (doesn't appear to have one, it was part of Megale Hellas).

A tentative one - Capua? There were a number of Greek colonies around Campania.

Interestingly, Chersonesos now has one in my game, after the Bosporans took it (though I think they installed that).

Syrakousai should most certainly have one.

Syrakousai should most certainly have one.

Excellent. Any thoughts on a polis_one in: Olbia, Chersonesos, Histria, Lilibeo, Messana, Rhegion and Halikarnassos?

[joshmahurin]

Yeah they can be built so areas with only limited Greek populations probably shouldn't automatically have one but for me cities that were founded by Greek colonists and still maintained a Greek identity in the time frame deserve one perhaps. Again this is only my opinions, Paullus is the man who knows
