v1.04b and v1.09 - what happened to Manufactory prices..?

[unmerged(144127)]

I've just installed v1.09 and found that prices for each Manufactory raised at least 3 times! At v.104b I had Refinery' cost around 1200 but now it costs 3600! What happens? Is it a normal price?:wacko:
My inflation level is 6,8% at the same versions.

As of version 1.08:

- Tweaked the cost formula for manufactories to increase cost more for several of same type.

It's basically to keep people from spamming refineries, as you were probably doing ().

Not at all, just built 8 of them in Vine regions under my rule: Baden, Moravia, Kafa, Kastamuni, Cyprus, Morea, etc.
I'd rather stay in v1.04b - will help to save money but think it's not fair if I have v1.09.

One trick with manufactories is that the price increase for having many of the same type only takes effect when the manufactory is completed. So if you save up a fair amount of money, you can build several refineries at the prices you were getting in 1.04.

But I don't see how you can call it unfair. I saw those screenshots of your Russian empire in the 1500s, and I'd say you need a harder game, not an easier one.

I'll try to save. Thanx.
Yeah sure - I need a harder game. Looks like I got it. At least with those prices.
