Hello,

When a civilization is in tiny debt a worker, catapult, or other unit will
be sold off each turn.

But I noticed... when a civilization is in HUGE debt then a building will be
sold as well each turn.

Apperently there is a "tipping/trigger point".

The question is how much debt can a civilization have before buildings get
sold ???

Example:

Treasury is empty.
Incoming is 50 gold per turn.
Outgoing is 60 gold per turn.

Debt is therefore 10 gold per turn.

So it will say -10 gold per turn.

Bye,
Skybuck.

I just tested it with a random save game (civ was rome).

The first time a barracks is sold... I rebuild many barracks... and made
sure the incoming was -3 and treasury zero.

unit support was 12, units total was 20.

The next few turns no barracks or any other buildings were sold !

So there is more to it than just selling a building every turn... <- that's
not true !

Bye,
Skybuck.

Ok,

I just did some more testing with the same random save game...

I was already expecting this:

As long as the debt is smaller than the difference between unit support and
total units... then only a unit will be sold off.

If the debt is larger than that then buildings will be sold off as well.

That's my theory so far ! Wink

Skybuck.

Another theory could be that a unit is sold off and it returns a certain
ammount of gold into the treasury... this is calculated up front... if it's
not enough to cover the debt... then a building will be sold as well ?!?

It seems to work shacky...

So last theory is: It's random/by chance...

Sometimes a building will be sold off, sometimes not...
