How far away from one of your cities do you have to be to get a none unit?
Like when you pop a barbarian hut?

If the hut is closer to a city owned by anyone but you then it is to one of your cities, it will be a Non-unit. That could be 3 squares or 30 squares.

Rah is totally correct. However while we are on the subject what happens if the unit is equal distances between both cities? By both I mean yours and another civs.

Equal distance = supported.

Had a case in my last session where I bribed a boat which had three squares (in a straight line) between it and an A1 city and three squares (two in a straight line then one diagonal) from my city. It came up NONE.

That I think is consistent with what has been established about how the game measures distance.

So equal = supported only when the distance is equal by reference to that method of measuring.
