It’s the game director, Wizz… this hack keeps pushing the concept of the thousands of individual pop entities, and the game simply can’t support it. He did the same with Stellaris 2.0 Megacorp, which was his “baby” as well. These pdx game engines simply cannot and will not support thousands upon thousands of pop entities, some sort of amalgamation and abstraction of population is necessary. The devs will waste years of fumbling with this issue, working around it instead of just saying goodbye to this imbecilic and unneccesary pop system

Oh man, I was doing this accidentally as the number 1 economy on my Soviet Japan game yesterday. My economy was not stable at all and had to entirely depend upon _constantly_ building anything to get that sweet investment pool transfer and keep my steel and glass industries afloat. Every few minutes I'd have to find some market to dump new mass produced consumer goods into to keep them profitable. All the while immigration just kept accelerating spurring me to spam more industry to create more jobs. Eventually I just let the construction queue play out and then the entire global economy collapsed when my construction sector stopped, and seeing it was now 2 am I decided to call it a night 10/10 would bubble again

My main suspicion for budgetary issues are the immigrants creating extra labour out of nowhere and thus doing shite, or something something stockpiling somewhere.

My population during the crisis was a whopping 160 million and my growth rate was 1 percent so I suspect it could be something related with that too.

My first really good game was as Spain, and I ended up inadvertently destroying the French economy because the people kept leaving. Almost every province I clicked on had negative population attraction. By the time lag prevented me from going, it was 1890 and about a third of the people in Spain were French 🤣 their economy was only around 50 million compared to 500 million. I got really lucky in that game with migration events in general though. It just hit France the hardest. I formed Germany in another game and barely had any migration even though the economy was technically bigger.

8:32 I think some developer commented that the "predicted price impact" in the UI is just a rough estimate (a linearised approximation probably) and is not what is directly implemented in the code. Because we do not even have a closed mathematical formula for the demand curve (which is set dynamically), we a fortiori do not have a closed formula for the demand-supply equilibrium point. The situation where the target market ends up having a price lower than yours should not happen, it's either that the approximation used in the UI doesn't hold or (if what you then observe really corresponds to what the UI says) that there is a bug. Did you check what the prices actually become in the target market? In the limit where your industry is much larger than their needs, what should happen is that the price in your home market doesn't move and the price in their market should get aligned with yours. But getting aligned to your price, around 25 GBP, might already be enough to crash their factories if you have some competitive advantage (for instance by building taller stacks plus using an edict on your centralised state).

I noticed myself in a Gran(dest) Colombia playthrough that it's really hard to keep the industry going at a SoL of around 30. Wages just get so high that almost no industry is profitable anymore. If you don't subsidize them, you'll get a huge amount of jobless people, which will either quickly radicalise or be a huge strain on the social systems (almost forcing you to go bankrupt), or you subsidise them and go bankrupt anyway. This really needs to be fixed.
