Follow-up Comment #1, bug #25149 (project freeciv):

Do you have units in contact with units of the other nation? If you don't have
an active embassy, contact remains only some turns so that your units don't
see each other.

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #25149 (project freeciv):

That's the reasion. Didn't found any reference information about this behavior
in the Freeciv help. There is only this hint at the _diplomat_ unit:
"Establish Embassy": This action always succeeds, and gives permanent contact
with the city's owner, as well as intelligence on their tax rates and
technology.
The _Diplomacy_ section doesn't mentiore the behavior of the contact
procedure.
As this seems not to be a software bug, this report is more a wish to the
documentation.
