You can try to build a bigger military building near the mountain, so more land of the mountain will be conquered. Fight simulator for Widelands: https://wide-fighter.netlify.app/ Top Quote

I think that should be such building to enable to reach this resources. I hope it's at least modable. EDIT: In some cases you can't even build larger buildings near mountains.

The atlantean tutorial game ( atleaast I think it was the atlantean one) shows how it can be done. I have used the same idea in some of my own maps. You just need to be able to reach such a site.

So if there are some regions that are unavailable this was the intent of the map designer and I don't like any concept that is making intented things on maps useless. if it is not making any difference whether there are mountains or other terrains why bother with carefully setting them? by this we would probably end with less interesting maps. so -1 from my side for a mountain buildable military building. to be able to gather more or all ressources one might add an addon allowing for bigger mining radiuses for mines.

The only thing that might help is to expand on mountains. I guess I'll create mod then. Thanks for your feedback. Top Quote
