relocating a district center

[Lothos]

i just tried to move a district center in a new district i had been building, but the buildings no longer want to be a part of the relocated center, but rather the next closest district. is there a way to remap the district buildings belong to somehow?

Yes, but you need to cut the path network in such a way that all the building are connected to the district center you want and cut off everything else with Gates.

but i have the 2 districts already separated by gates...i thought i could just move the center within the district.

Once you've got more than a single district they'll always immediately migrate if you delete one. You'll just have to migrate them back or give up the idea of moving the center.

the migrate part wasn't the issue. it was the center not recognizing the buildings when i placed it back. i needed another district gate on a road that didnt go thru yet

As long as you got the paths worked out the migration is the only other thing you should have to watch out for, but paths and gates already got mentioned. Trying to find good district placement can be a pain sometimes. I'd be happier if I could see a full pathing system preplacement. Like every possible block distance the pathing could potentially reach.

I just started a new game, where the very first thing I did was relocate the district centre.
the recommended map and didn't even mark where to cut lumber before shifting it further from the river. made a massive change in the game.

You are going to have to give us a screenshot. You claim to have solved what I am assuming the issue is so I can only get the impression you are doing it wrong and don't realize it.

I don't understand your problem. All the pictured buildings are connected to the selected district center and lack the warning of not having a proper connection.

I don't have a problem, I posted in here, I moved it before doing any other building.
