One Last question about sites

[tinkthank]

I can no longer find the thread I mean, but I recently read somewhere that the magic site frequency setting reflects the %chance that every one of the 4 slots in a province will be filled.
I didnt know that.
Does that mean that 4 is the maximum, so that if I find a province with 4 sites in it, no matter of which kind, that it is "full" and thus further searching is of no avail?

Yes, AFAIK

Hey thanks.
Do level 0 sites also count towards this? Do Goldmines count?

[Alneyan]

They both count towards the limit, as they are both magic sites (unlike the temple, laboratories and forteresses).

On the same topic, the capital province does not have any hidden site, but it can gain additional sites via random events (until it reaches four sites that is).

Can't gold mines still pop into an already full province? Say, I search and find four sites. Can't a later event add a Gold mine or the like?

No. Not above four.
