Focus Cities!

[gbello]

Not sure if this is a bug.. but, I'll report it anyway.. maybe that way someone can explain the case..

The world I'm in, is supposed to permit a creation of 4 focus cities in and out of your home country..
the thing is that I have only 3 focus cities (counting my starting one - ATL) and the game doesn't let me create new ones... It says: "You already have the maximum possible focus cities, consider closing an existing focus city."

Hopefully someone will be able to explain it to me..

My Info:
Airline ID: 9741
World: PW#398
Current Focus Cities: ATL, PEK, LAX
Trying to Create: DFW

Not a bug.

Since your first base is in ATL, your home continent is North America.

You can have four bases on your home continent.

What your world creator didn't know or realize (maybe he did), is that every foreign base counts as 2 domestic bases.

So ATL and LAX count as 1 each, and PEK counts as 2, which equals 4--which is the maximum number of bases allowed.

When you look at a typical full public world, you are given 7[1] domestic/foreign bases. That means you can have 7 domestic bases or 5 domestic/1 foreign base.

I'm going to assume the world is listed as 4[4]. If he intended to allow for 4 domestic and 4 foreign, it should have read 12[4] (which would've costed a lot more tokens).
