I remember that this refered to a square a city has been Exodused from not to.
I am not aware of any square that was terrafromed and changed when the city was razed.

I have done this twice for 2 cities that were siege damaged recently. No revert back.

I'm doing it now for a fellow HUGger. I'll keep an eye on it. :)


Re: Angrim.

I didn't know that. Then again, if such a thing happens, you can always hold off the exodus :)

reversion is no glitch.  GM Stormcrow has explained that there is a chance when a city is razed that the square will revert to the underlying terrain type, which is always saved by the game.  i am not aware that anyone has puzzled out why this may or may not occur in an individual instance, or how likely it is to happen, but it has been observed.

If there is a glitch to where a recently terraformed town is razed and it reverts back all you have to do to get around that is abandon the terraformed 0 pop town, wait 5 days for it to auto-delete and then exo.

Stormcrow specifically said raze. Middle of the page.

And soon my fortress of solitude will be complete :D  

I think there are certain times when the terrain reverts back.  But I believe its exodus.

Terraformed squares do not revert back when the town is razed or even when the town is deleted for inactivity. They are permanent.

I thought when you razed a terraformed city, that the square now reverts to its original 5 food state?
