a long time ago shortly after rome was released i reported this bug
because of RL and MMORPG's i havent played for a very long time
bought vv now and started playing again
and i find the bug is still alive and well:rofl:
anyway the bug is this
if u or the ai, are colonizing an area, and u then have to save and reboot for some reason, when u reboot an aditional 4 pop will be subtracted
this means that before i can log for the night, i have to check every single posibility for the AI to colonize, and if i find one i either have to wait till they are done colonizing before saving or when i reboot the next day go in and add population to their cities in the save game
i just tested it by saving and rebooting saving and rebooting etc etc at a time where both seleucids and macedonia where colonizing and in short order both their capitals where below 10 pop
my tests where its not the capital starting the colony shows that on a reboot, 2 aditional pop will be subtracted from both the colonizing region and the capital, untill the colonizing region drops below 10 pop at wich point it will either take those 2 from another adjacant region or instead take 4 from the capital
i can reproduce this bug in any game i start up
its not a big problem for my own nation i just hold off on colonizing if i know i have to log off soon, but its a pain to have to keep check of the AI nations
yesterday i played more than an hour longer than i should have because someone was colonizing constantly, though i have to admit i did enjoy that
edit:a gripe i have with colonizing while not a bug annoys me very much
why does the 2 pop have to go from the capital every time even if thats not your biggest city?
if u play a game as, lets say a very colonizing macedonia, the capital will always end up as a backwater village instead of a thriving metropolis
if u look at RL great brittain, i think we can all agree that even though they started alot of colonies, london was still able to field quite a big population
and im pretty sure that goes for all other colonizing countries in RL aswell
does anyone know if its posible to mod the game so it always take the 2 pop from your biggest city instead of the capital?
oh and since 50% of the population in a colony, comes from your capital, would it be posible to mod it so there was atleast a 50% chance to get your own culture/religion in a colony?
