WoodMan -> RE: Private sector RETIRING (8/27/2012 1:50:37 AM)
|
I've now got this for the first time, I've had this game for two years and never come across this issue. After the latest patch I'm just playing along normally and realise my entire empire has come to a halt (all construction is taking forever). I then open up the empire summary and realise I have only 2 freighters, what the??? lol, 2 freighters, no mining ships, no passenger ships... Does anyone know a way to see a list of exactly everything an AI empire has? I'd like to check that they aren't having the same problem too. Maintenence costs have gone up because weapons have been added to mining bases for a start! Man that is annoying. Edit: Further Investigation I think it is the private sector trying to avoid negative cashflow. It has a positive cash flow of 11k, but this is rather small considering I've seen many 100k in previous games. I have managed my mining as I always do, but it looks like the increased maintenence due to the arming of mining bases has caused an issue here. lol, and I was about the only person in the world who said all along the arming of mining bases was a waste of time [:D] I consider my opinion vindicated now! Also, I'm taxing at about 90% lol. But seriously, last time I played as Shandar I was taxing at 99% at one point and still not getting this issue. Time to watch the private sector more carefully from now on (I usually don't even think about it at all).
