According to patch notes this bug should be fixed. But as always it is better to confirm such statements with real life game play.

I don't remember reading them fixing this in the patch notes

@sdgabai - I seem to recall reading in the Firaxis GS release notes that the garrison bug was fixed on their end, so it is *POSSIBLE* this mod will be obsolete. I'm just waiting for FearSunn to comment either way.

I don't know modding officially; but, it was flagged as incompatible for GS for me by either GS or Enhanced Mod Manager. I don't know which flagged it to be honest. Thank you for this mod and your time modding. All of you modders are awesome!

Now works on saved games. Thanks sipertruk for the code snippet.

Doesn't work for saved games where the city has already rebelled and there's a unit stuck inside. Have to load to before it rebelled probably

Excellent mod - I was wary of starting a new game because of how annoying this was in the game I've just finished.. so i'm very glad to have found this.

This literally just happened to me yesterday, thanks for providing this fix.

@LegoCollecter14 - Yes, as there hasn't been a game update since this bug was introduced.

Is this still needed?

Thanks for this. That was a seriously annoying bug.

It will work for future flips in your current game. If you have seve before flip, it will work on reload.

If i have this problem on my save game this script fix that or need start new game?

Now I see what you mean. This has nothing to do with this mod.

Sure, so for example if city is low on health after a long siege and AI puts a unit in the city (e.g. artillery corps). If I will take city next turn in one melee attack, the whole corps will be destroyed. Normally it would take me 3-4 attacks to destroy that unit. It would make sense for unit to be moved away from city with receiving 50 damage rather than being completely destroyed.

Not sure I've got you correctly. Could you provide some example explanation?

Would you mind sharing the piece of the code? I agree that for tjis mod it make sense as it is as it represents garrison being killed by revolters. My idea is to change city assault mechanic where garrison wouldn't die immediately if city is taken during the combat... as if sometimes city changes hands often, AI keeps sending armies to the city and as a result of it loses some valuable units in one attack.

Yes, it is possible. But killing them feels like right thing for me - kind of revolt casualties.

hmm... FearSunn, is it possible to transfer that unit maybe to player's capital like it is happening with great people when you try to capture them?

Again, you can't move other player units!

This script is great, but no script can addresss this bug---it has to be Firaxis.

SUGGESTION TO PLAYERS: Have the garrisoned unit step out one hex, and then turn around for an attack on the Free City. After that, all other units can attack the city, too -- possibly re-taking it in the same turn.

That said: Firaxis should fix this core-gameplay-level bug.

Thank you very much! ... for this mod and for your quick answer.

It will work for future city flips in your current game.

Happened to me last days. Now I have to test it. Will it force an existant unit out of city, or do I have to play the savegame just before city flip. ;-)
Whoever can read German, may have a look at CivVI-forum here:

This has definitely happened to me. Thanks for the fix!

Oh, I thought this was referring to when it's your *own* units trapped in the city flip.

I haven't actually seen this happen to another civ's units in a flipped city, yet.

That changes things. I might pick this up right now, then, because that would be pretty annoying to have another civ's unit icon stacked in my city forever after something like this.

@Aluminium
You can't move units owned by other player.

Pretty sure you can move them that first turn after the flip.

But yeah, useful if you aren't good about watching the city flipping and don't move them immediately.

Those stuck garrisons have been so annoying! Thanks!!

I didnt know about this bug, but its almost gamebreaking since free city flipping is such an important part!

Thanks for fixing this man!

This is one of those bugs that the game should hotfix right away.

in desperate time, there are always heroes, or mods
thank you xD
btw, my 2 cents conspiracy theory: they make bugs in every patch, so people are encouraged to buy the next dlc which would fix those bugs

The community thanks you for your service

And here I thought it was just me that had that annoyance. City flips, oh but there is still a drone or great general in it and now I can't conqure it. So freaking annoying.

Thanks! but that probably means that if I install the mod now, it won't solve the problem and I'll have to backpeddle my save games, right?
