Quick answer
A greyed House of Fortune action usually means the interaction's current conditions are not satisfied, the building belongs to another camp, or an event panel has not refreshed. Inspect the tooltip and save before rebuilding the island.

Check in order
- Select the building and read the full tooltip or requirement text.
- Confirm the correct pirate camp has range and a working connection.
- Check required resources, workers, and any active event or journey summary.
- Save, reload, and test the same interaction once.
- If it remains grey, record the build and exact button state for a bug report.
Avoid false fixes
Do not demolish the House of Fortune immediately or spend rare resources just to force a refresh. A visual grey state can be different from a missing prerequisite or a confirmed progression bug.
FAQ
Does a grey button always mean the building is broken?
No. It can indicate a missing requirement, unavailable worker, camp range issue, or stale event state.
Should I move the building?
Only after checking its connection and camp ownership; moving it first can remove useful evidence.
