Impassable borders stop resources?

[Targa]

Just a quick question for verification of what I just saw. This time I chose to try the fortress with 50 admin, and as usual, I conquer all adjacent provinces to draw in their resources. However, there are two adjacent provinces that are blocked off by a mountain range (so although they touch my home province, I have to take my troops through a couple of other provinces to get there). It makes sense that the impassable mountains also stop resources from coming in. I was wondering this, and checked my resources in my home province before and after conquering the "mountain province", and they stayed the same. Has anyone else seen this behavior? Just checking to be positive that it's a waste of time trying to get resources from a province that's blocked off by mountains.

Thoses provinces just AREN'T bordering your fortress.It entirely come from the way the map are created. All the boundaries you see on them are merely a picture, they have no effect in the game.

In the map file there is a listing of provinces and neighbourgh , and the way to depict impassable boundaries is to tell they are not neighbouring thus not providing any ressources either...

BTW if you cannot move to there with any of your troups ( even flyer ) how could ressources or gold be send back to your castle anyway ?


Of course I could be told wrong...

Provinces that are blocked of aren't neighbouring provinces, therefore you couldn't pull ressources from them. (The game engine doesn't know about borders, only 'bout neighbours.)

*smacks self in head* Of course! Thanks for pointing that out. I am familiar with the #neighbor in map files...brain-dead in the AM I guess.
