Dear Settlers,

The current game version has an issue that affects blocking in the game. Among other effects, this makes it possible to place buildings and generals on top of each other and on mountains.

Please do not take advantage of these features. Do not place buildings inside each other and do not place generals in mountains, as these activities can trigger so-called "Locked Zones".

With best regards
Your "The Settlers Online" Team
