When you try to trade with farming villages via the farming overview it doesn't always work. Sometimes you will get a message saying "active city not on this island" - even though you have it selected. Other times nothing at all will happen, no message - no trade window.
It is very irritating and slows you down tremendously when you have 100+ cities and can't trade via overview. You have to manually go to each island and find the farm you want to trade with. It triples or quadruples the time it takes to go through your cities and trade excess wood/silver for stone.
When you get to 50+ cities it is often not worthwhile dealing with this bug and I simply don't trade.
I have found no reliable way of triggering this bug. It happens whether you click a city from the trade/culture overview and hit "select town" button or whether you click the arrows at the top of city dropdown list, or when selecting a city from the dropdown itself.
And it doesn't always happen, it is random. It seems to happen more often on the first attempts at trading. Once you have cycled through a few cities, it shows up less often but still pops up frequently enough to be a considerable impediment.
