Newbie question... please help!

[unmerged(514)]

After playing the tutorial, I have some questions I need answered... can somebody help me?

1 - How can I lower my current inflaction percentage?
If I push the slide bar 'Money' in the budget screen to the left, I manage to stop inflaction (at a cost in money per month I believe), but I cant reduce it. How can it be done? Can I have deflaction in my country?

2 - Do we have two types of income like one monthly and other annual? If not how can I earn money to the treasury without raising inflaction (by minting coins...)?


Thanks for your help!

As you develop your infrastructure levels you will be able to implement upgrades (Chief Judges from memory) that reduce inflation by 1% for each one you build. There is also a random event that reduces your inflation by 33% (as in a total of 33% off, not dividing your total by .33).

Yes, there are two types of income. Your annual income goes into the treasury without increasing inflation. Apart from that you are limited to gifts or beneficial peace negotiations to increase your treasury if you do not want to use the inflation inducing monthly income for 'spendable' ducats.

And to help find info about annual income in your reports: it is called 'census tax'.

Two more additions to the inflation issue:

1) decrease in inflation is caused by installing governors not chief judges,

2) you can also decrease inflation by going bankrupt (deliberately defaulting on a loan).

This should actually work the oppsite in 1.08, becourse of the possible human exploit that the other way creates.
