There seems to be an obstacle (a facility or unbuildable area) blocking one of the roads (make sure you do not select any roads that would cross other facilities or borders). The road in question is at 21, 19
i have the city owned,the correct mats in a bff-1 and the workers,
i have tried beeing left of build and above,
even moved away from the ship
Is there any vehicle or ship with active pilot at said position ? If so, that may be a reason.
From what I remember, in the situation like this, construction will be blocked.
Screenshot of your construction page? Looks like from the error that you don't have 2 edges of your facility that you want to construct free of anything (facilities).
Umm, press the Print Screen button on your keyboard (should be just above the End, Page Down/Up keys) and then paste into an image program (paint, photoshop etc) and then upload the image to the internet and paste here.
As for what Ten is saying, when you are chosing the location for where the roads go, you cannot choose a location that is outside the slabbed area - the 1 grid wide border that shows the terrain is sancrosact and cannot be built on, either with facilities or roads, and isn't counted as a road itself. So you still have to include roads elsewhere.
