National Parks

[cdmiller42]

So i created the Conservation or Naturalist unit, and I am not able to create a national park. The civilopedia is not very clear on how to utilize them. Is there a tool tip or map function which helps establish the national park?

Same problem. I've heard that it highlights a suitable area for you, but I have none on my map. I even have a natural wonder that takes up four tiles in a diamond shape, and is 'breathtaking', and the tiles are all owned by the same city.

seems to work only in some specific locations. i spawned the unit and planned to turn the great barrier reef (which was inside the borders of one of my cities) into a national park, but the only location that was highlighted was a diamond shaped area with two (desert) mountains, a desert hill and an oasis. all of the tiles were unimproved and they were all inside my borders.

I just got it to work in my game now. So I couldnt do it complete over the 4-tile Natural Wonder, so I used a builder to remove a farm next to it. This farm was on 'charming' land. As soon as I removed it, a 4-tile white highlighted area was shown, except only 3 of them were over the natural wonder. Kinda weird, but I'm sure we'll (the community) will figure it out eventually.

Just figured it out. All tiles need to be un-improved. No farms, no mines, etc.

Yeah I had that on my 4-tile natural wonder, but I couldn't put it there. But when I cleared a farm next to it, I could put it over 3 of the natural wonder tiles, and the cleared tile. So weird.
