The Eastern European building looks bigger than it actually is, leading to confusion in terms of if there’s a gap or not.

### ▶ FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

👇 _How often does the issue occur? CHOSE ONE; DELETE THE REST!_

- **100%** of the time / matches I play (ALWAYS)

👇 _List CLEAR and DETAILED STEPS we can take to reproduce the issue ourselves… Be descriptive!_

Here’s the steps to reproduce the issue:

1. Place a Castle Age Eastern European stable four tiles away of a forest.
2. See that there’s a hole even though there’s none.

### ▶ EXPECTED RESULT

👇 _What was SUPPOSED to happen if the bug you encountered were not present?_

The hole would be pretty clear to see.

### ▶ IMAGE

👇 _ALWAYS attach a PICTURE (.jpg, .png, .gif) or VIDEO (.mp4, YouTube link) that highlights the problem._

Definitely should be looked into. Hopefully it’s an easy fix. It looks like that Magyar stable in castle age (and others like it) has a part of the building oversized. This makes it extend over the 3x3 area.

It’s inconsistent. Why should people playing Eastern European civs have to check more if there are walls ingame. Seems unfair.

I’m not even playing Ranked and it bothers me.

Wow, how did you catch this one? So the graphic seems to be 4x3, but the game knows is 3x3, creating the illusion of no gap when in fact there is gap.

It’s very fast visible in the scenario while switching architecture sets.

Its same for some Blacksmith types. Asian Castle Age Blacksmith specifically if I’m not mistaken.

It probably isn’t that extreme than the Eastern European stable but you might be right. Would probably be better to create an own thread for that for visibility.

I just wanted to remind you that the Feudal Age stable might also be plagued by the same issue. Not that you forget about it.

It’s not just the Eastern European stable. All stable sprites are slightly bigger than the amount of tiles they occupy. The EE one is just the most obvious one.

The Blacksmith sprites are also larger than the amount of tiles they cover.

@RatcicleFan : Doing some additional bug reports would make the general issue of buildings being too big more visible.
