Changing demand upper limit?

[ConjurerDragon]

As in EU2 the demand for goods seems to be capped at 200%.
Is that value changeable or is it possible to remove that limit so that demand can rise without limit?

Max demand is set on a per-good basis in goods.txt.

The first entry in goods.txt is

cloth = {
	base_price = 10
	
	min_demand = 0.50
	max_demand = 1.50
	
	barrack = 0.01
	
	goods = 0.01

	demand = { cotton = 0.01 } #Each cloth province increases demand for cotton

	manufactory = { type = goods income = yes }
}

What would I need to change to raise the maximum demand limit to more than 200%?
Or is the maximum limit the max_demand variable and for that product the maximum limit is 150%?

This is correct. min_demand is also useful if you want to e.g. make grain provinces more useful.

I tried to change a few values and it works like a charm. Demand of Ivory is now at 259% in my game (I have set the max demand to 1000%). Brewing beer or wodka in grain provinces allows now refineries, salt allows Naval Manufactories and Ivory luxury manufactories. Nice how that textfile is easily changeable.

Thankyou for your help.
