Assign Governor with too many Cities

[TheNightglow]

Seems I founded too many cities, the city states are no longer in the "Assign Governor" list at all, as well as a few of my own cities being missing

I m trying to assing a governor to one of my cities right now, but since it is not listed in the UI, i dont seem to be able to do so....

In other forums there were a few workaround mentioned, like blindy clicking through the list and counting instead of scrolling, but that doesnt seem to work for pc, since for PC mouse scrolling seems to be the only interaction?

For pc with mouse and keyboard, Is there any way for me to assign a governor to a city of mine if its not on the list?

The only Governor that can be assigned to City-states is Amani. No city state will show up for the other Govs.

really not the problem, the issue is that not all assignable options are shown...
as i wrote above, I am trying to assign a governor to my own city not a city state

but yes, i can not even assign Amani to any city state at all anymore aswell, because none of them are listed anymore, since all of them seem to be listed after my own cities

and not even all of my own cities can be seen in the broken UI

according to the internet this has been a known bug since the game has been released, and for playstation and switch there are workarounds for this bug

I opened this thread to ask if there are any known workarounds for pc...

Have you clicked the icon to open the menus for each group?

not sure what you mean

so far the only thing I tried is to click "Reassign" on a Governor in the Governor screen (which opens through one of the buttons at the top left, or when you click on a governor in a cities nameplate), which opens another UI where you have a scrollable list of cities to the left

There are a plus or minus signs at the top of the menu.

Correct. But to the right side of your first two cities you can see a bar, what you can left click (hold) and move down the city list. Or you simply make use of a mousewheel to scroll down the city list, what should show you the cities you're missing...

If I understand the image, you do not have a governor to assign, Have you unlocked all 6 governors?

in the image i am currently assigning Liang The Surveyor (as you can see in the very top)

as a target city Hue is selected which currently has no governor, thats why it says "No Governor Assigned" in the panel below The Surveyor

that is exactly the problem, the game does not allow to scroll down to the last city
there is only a fixed amout of cities within the scroll view length, here is the same screenshot scrolled down as far as possible

you can see, even though i selected Amani, not even a single city state is listed
because the city states are listed after your own cities and I have so many cities that not even all of my own fit within the scrollable length

-------------

ppl have already found workarounds for Switch and Controller, which dont work for mouse&keyboard (essentially if you can toggle through cities with a button, instead of scrolling, you have a workaround)

I was hoping there would be anyone out here who knows a workaround for PC....

Edit:
just counted, its exactly 40 cities, anything above 40 is not displayed for me

That is not how my menu looks when I am assigning a governor. Your image looks like a replacement option.

Couldnt you just click on the city in question, click the empty circle and then assign them that way?

I wish, but seems only cities with governors assigned display the govervor circle...
as in, an empty circle in the city name plate does not exist, if its empty it gets cut

also even if I click the circle at a city that does have a governor, it simply opens the governor UI, with no difference depending on the city I clicked at

Very strange situation.

Perhaps you already mentioned it, but you are not using mods, correct?

The problem seems to be due to you having over 40 cities, I guess it can't display more, which is a weird oversight.

If I get a chance tonight I'll take a look and see if I encounter similar.
