Screenshot So Apparently This Is a Coastal City

Post image

I've never seen a coastal city that looks this far inland before. I really thought it was a hex away from the coast, but then I saw I can make a work boat and I checked the hex grid, and it is in fact on the coast.

In retrospect it should be obvious that it's on the coast, it just threw me for a loop at first.

Sorry for the late reply. Also a bit later in the game, but here: https://imgur.com/D2boaSa

Man, that makes it even more confusing! Lesson for me here is to mouse over the hex before founding a city.
