Perhaps this has already been discussed, but I couldn't find it. How do you properly position a Castle in the editor so that it's possible to build a Shipyard? I've already placed it right next to the water; it's physically impossible to place it any closer, but I still can't build it. If I try to build it manually, it says that the Shipyard is abandoned, meaning it still doesn't work. How the heck do you position this Castle?

I think there should be an option in the city settings to specify the exact coordinates where the built ships should be sent. But I don't remember.

I finally got to my map, and I still can't figure out how to configure this shipyard. Here's the city specialization, and here's the parameter I need. How do I set it? There are no controls. And I don't see it in the city settings either.
I'm just dumb, what can I do? :smile17:

How can that be? Can't you define those circled x and y? And click to the right of them? Or all the way to the right of them? The symbol there should indicate that they are clickable.
You can open the map with an archiver, find the map.xdb file with Notepad, find the city in it, and change the desired properties manually, without using the editor (close the editor beforehand).

There are completely pointless buttons that serve no purpose.

You're clicking in the wrong place. Lower... on the x and y coordinates themselves, or to the right of them. By the way, use the left mouse button. If I'm not mistaken.

Got it. The X-shaped structures themselves weren't active, but there was a slider below – 2/3 of that menu was off-screen, and that's where all the values are entered. Thanks for the help! :)
P.S. I hope you need to assign them to the nearest water point to the slope, and not to the farthest point of the "slope." As far as I remember, yes, the ships are stationed there.

Enable the pathfinding map and you'll see. The ship should be on an impassable (red) tile, adjacent to a passable (transparent) tile.
