So i have my self a little confused.
What are the required conditions for a settlement. I know the prestige values!!!
My issue is, im ploting around my planet connecting beaconts. Im using my hub beacon to plot ALL the roads. All roads are the same beacon. When i connect my beacon to my clay farm i lose my city! Im not sure why…I have the farm aligned to a guild…my only thought is, the farm is owned by the same toon. Is that my problem? Do i need to replot the farm with a different toon? First time i encountered this problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
What’s your compactness of each beacon? Compactness can affect prestige too
I have compactness turned off on my sovereign. But that hasnt affected anything so far that im aware of.
Here is my current city…but when i reconnect the clay farm i lose my city and makes another settlement. It like splits them
I have no idea how much of this is superstition, but I personally have never been been able to get 2 settlements to connect unless they’re connected at least 2 plots high. A couple months ago i was struggling with this like crazy, and then when i plotted one down on both plots, it suddenly connected.

Not sure if this helps or not but are the roads 2 plots wide? Sometimes I’d get no connections if my roads weren’t 2 wide.or if the settlement I was trying to connect was higher in prestige than my roads.
If I missed something in your posts I apologize.

That could be it!!!
It is currently one plot wide!!!..will take me about 10 mins to plot. Ill brb with an update.
Thats seems to have Worked! My ZFarms are now part of the settlement. So note to self..Beacons need to be connected by 2 plots wide by 1 high to link to a settlement. Thanks so much for the help!!!

Yeah your on the right track they have to be connected by more than 1 Plot. I don’t believe there is a height requirement but the multi plots is for sure. Funny part is I have a spot connected only Diagonally to someone and it is connecting me to a settlement. We removed the ones that were along side but it refuses to disconnect lol!

have you gone into your beacon and changed the name of the settlement for the beacon?

For future reference. If you’re in build view it should show red squares where your problem is. And yes you need 2 plot wide on roads that are long.
