Gebiv Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Yesterday, the land modifiers and growth values seemed to switch from what they were at two days ago. Today, the modifiers went down my about 30 miles of land, putting me in the red. The only thing I can think of to explain this is a -10% land event I got 29 days ago(expires tomorrow) overriding something. Any explanations?

Delta1212 Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 (edited) admin changed some stuff with Land a few hours ago. Sugar and Wheat (I think?) both lost their land bonus. Edited March 22, 2008 by Delta1212 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gebiv Posted March 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Ouch, sugar is one of my natural resources. And I've acquired wheat. Oh well, guess I can't RP with as big of a nation now. When did the admin do this update? I try to check the log every time I log on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delta1212 Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 He did it almost exactly five hours ago. Details are in a thread in Gameplay Discussion created by (DAC)Syzygy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Count Rupert Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Yes. The explanation is that changes were made to the formula for calculating the number of citizens one receives from land. As a result of the change (see below), Sugar and Wheat, and you have both, lost the land modifier they were receiving. From the Game Update Logs: 3-22-2008- The calculation for citizens has been updated. The old equation was not using the full land modifiers. The new equation uses the total land of a nation and has been simplified. Now every mile of land no matter how it is gained (purchases, modifiers, or natural growth) brings 0.2 citzens. The infrastructure portion of the citizen calculation has not been changed. - Sugar and Wheat no longer provide a land bonus. These two resources already provide citizen count increases and with the land update above they would have become over powered with the land bonus left in place.

Gebiv Posted March 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Ugh, thank goodness I have reserve money on me. Otherwise, I would lose some taxes tomorrow from overpopulation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
