Hey,

Have been using this Mod for several months now, and it was difficult to play the game without it.

However, I believe that the cut on the buildings income with the update Version 1.90 (10/01/2025) was too harsh

For eg. playing as the Byzantine Emperor (an extreme example) and having an income of 3.7 gold per Month...? 867 or 1066 start. and this doesnt change much as you devolop your capital and add more buildings. Furthermore, you cannot interact with the dozens of functionailities or events the game has and throws at you if the income has been crippled like this.

Really love this mod but this last cut on the income was deadly and made remove it from my playset.

Thank you for your hardworking here but I would ask if some balancing could be done in the next update or at least just review buildings income.

Glad you are enjoying and thank you for your concerns / suggestions.

It is true that I nerfed the building's income but it is also true that I implemented a new decision that provides a whooping 30% increase to domain taxes.

The 3.7 gold per month you mention is not your total income, you have other types of income available. You may attempt to enlarge your domain to bring this value up.

All in all, the present balance is always being evaluated and it is possible changes according to your opinion are soon made.
