Rickamer Posted June 1, 2008 Report Share Posted June 1, 2008 I would like for you to check up on my nation. I think that there is something wrong with the Income Taxes Paid Per Day calculation. Last night I collected approximately $130 per citizen. This morning it is down to approximately $68.81. Nothing that I have done can account for this amount of decrease in income tax. Nation Name: Utopia Planitia Nation Rule: Rickamer Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodrow Posted June 1, 2008 Report Share Posted June 1, 2008 (edited) Check your trades? From your nation: [This nation is using 4 of 5 trade slots.] Heh, peace mode doesn't help either. Edited June 1, 2008 by Woodrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickamer Posted June 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 (edited) sigh....I knew that those were going to be brought up. Even taking those into consideration...there seems like something is off. Entering peace mode the citizen taxes were $131.26 After 4 days of peace mode (-3 happiness) the taxes were $127.56 After 6 days of peace mode (-5 happiness) the taxes are $73.32. Thus, I am collecting $73.32 when I should be collecting $125.06 (by my calculations). Edited June 2, 2008 by Rickamer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Count Rupert Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 sigh....I knew that those were going to be brought up.

Thus, I am collecting $73.32 when I should be collecting $125.06 (by my calculations). You missed the fact there is an additional economic effect of being in peace mode that kicks in after more than 5 days in peace mode. National Peace/War Preference - The Peace/War Preference option allows you to specify whether or not you want to allow other nations to declare war on you and attack your nation or to play the game as a peaceful nation. Keeping your nation in peace mode for prolonged periods of time will damage your nations economy. New nations get a 7 day grace period when in peace mode to allow them to learn the game without receiving any economic penalties. If your nation is older than 7 days and you remain in peace mode for more than: 4 days = -3 population happiness 6 days = -5 population happiness 8 days = -6 population happiness 10 days = -7 population happiness 12 days = -8 population happiness 14 days = -9 population happiness There is also an additional economic penalty on top of the population happiness penalty if your nation is in peace mode for more than 5 days. A nation in peace mode may not send foreign aid, however it will be allowed to continue to receive foreign aid. In order to exit peace mode nations are required to collect taxes on the day that they wish to change out of peace mode. So at six days in peace mode, that additional economic penalty has kicked in. So day 6 is a doozy with the extra -2 happiness on top of the economic penalty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickamer Posted June 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 The way that I have always read that sentence is that the additional economic penalty was that you could not send foreign aid. Anyways, that answers the question. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
