Can't send envoys
When I choose a city-state to receive an envoy, the "city-state report" window pops up, but has no active button for the cursor to activate the selection. The "confirm choice" button on the send envoy screen is non-operable. Anyone figured this out?

I'm not sure I understand. Are you saying that you don't have that little arrow-shaped button on each separate line in the city-state window (the window with all of the city-states listed)? Sounds like a bug, if so.

Can you post a screen shot

I'm having this issue too, where the little arrow to the right of the number is there, but clicking it has no effect, and the "confirm choice" button is disabled too. So I have like 10 envoys I can send, but I can't send them. Is there somewhere to post bugs like this other than the Steam forums?

Yeah I've got the same problem. OSX and RF included. Was a legacy bug from vanilla.

Hi, I have this problem too. Up to upgrade to version 1.229 RF. When i become notice "Send envoys" i see window with only one city state, over fact, that i have contact with more then 10 city states, but no one button is operable, and i have 10 envoys...

I've found the city state functions to be a little buggy. Once I made peace with Norway but Toronto stayed at war with me for the rest of the game. I also had a situation where the arrow buttons on the envoy screen were non responsive until I restarted. I also played a game where I liberated two city states, but they never reappeared on the city state screen.

I'm having the same issue too. Now I play with no city states in my games because the AI is able to send envoys but the player can't...

this only happens later in the game for me so far. like 3/4s the way through.

Yup, same with me. About modern era-ish problem.

I'm at the beginning and it won't allow me to send any envoys period no plus or minus sign just nothing idk what to do like wth

You have to increase the number of envoys in the city through the arrows more on top of the send envoy-Menu. Then you can confirm your choice.

I just ran into this bug, five years later. For what it's worth, for me, saving the game and reloading fixed it.

I too experience this issue. Usually it's around turn 100 and I'll attempt to send an envoy to a city-state. In the City-State screen the arrow locks and I am unable to "Confirm Choice". Like most here, I can reload the game and then the problem is no longer present.

That is NOT a fix! It's merely a workaround.

Admittedly, I am running a couple of MODS (Sukritract's Simple UI Adjustments, Better Report Screen (UI), Extended Policy Cards, Detailed Map Tacks) and the only one I can even fathom affecting the City State screen is Simple UI Adjustments. My guess (and that's all it is) is there is code break in the AddCityStateRow function pointing to the kCityState table.

This doesn't happen often so it's difficult to confirm if it's a MOD conflict or not.

Any other ideas?

Have you tried without mods?
