I'm Asria on WG for refrence
Got a message that I have high unployment and high debt therefore a corp has been built for me. There are 2 big problems with that.
1) I have no debt
2) employment is in the mid 80's largly because I a disproposinate number
of LLW that happened for an unknown reason.
The GM or Autoscript whichever did created 3 new problems for me.
1)
I am trying to get enough cash to at least stay at level 3 (building corps cost money and I need to space that out. And building a corp when I don't want one doesn't help that
2) the corp he build (Electric moters) sucked up my Enigeers creating a futher worker inbalance.
3) I build corp that I can internaly trade with (aka I feel I need). I don't need a electric moter company
My question/complaint
How do I get the GM to not do to me in the future |

If you unemployment gets too high it forces creation of a corporation |
| evader23 | Monday, March 11, 2019 - 12:48 am
it was the GM building a state corp not a CEO and it cost me money I don't have. I aacutaly encourage CEOs |

Check you auto settings and turn off the auto building of new corps. More high schools should help with the LLWs. |

checked that it is off but econ support is on would that do it ? |
| tuco183 | Monday, March 11, 2019 - 07:49 pm
I had the same happened to me, with auto building off and econ on, so its either that or like The Emperor said. |

Evader, If you have more than one country in your empire, maybe you could transfer some cash to the one that doesn't have enough so you can build the corps you want. Once unemployment drops a bit maybe the game won't auto build new corps for you. |

Thanks Ferdelke.
Follow up question what does econ support do. Is it safe to turn that off |
| Khome | Tuesday, March 12, 2019 - 05:05 am
Get used to it. Even with the auto switched off, it'll still happen. I've pointed this out before but the GMs won't change it. |

Econ support is designed to help new players from having their country getting so bad economically that they risk getting to the point of bankruptcy. When unemployment is high, the game will auto build corps to help lower the unemployment. The game has a steep learning curve. Until you get your education, transportation, health, etc balanced to where you can support new corps, you should build them yourself. Get your workforce balanced and lower your unemployment to 4-6% and you shouldn't see the auto building happening anymore. I'm not having any issues with the game building corps at this time. I did in the early days when I started playing. But I have kept my unemployment around 4-6% and my countries are doing just fine.
Evader....If you wish me to look at your country to help spot some potential issues, just list your country name and world and I will take a look. |

@ferdalke go ahead only thing I can see wrong is too many LLW and I can't seem to get less of them and more eningeers |

I sent you a mail. |

Some notes on education, worker distribution, and automatic corporation building.
1). Having to many low level workers has two possible causes. Either your education index is to low, or your unemployment rate is to high.
2). A lot of people underestimate how much education they need. I find that I need AT LEAST 180 education index, several players use more. If you are sitting at the 120 minimum, you have an education crisis. That is causing your problems.
3). Holding off building Corporations to save cash, is an unsustainable strategy. The best way to make sure you get enough cash, is to run a profitable country. That requires you to build and manage profitable corporations, and maintain a low unemployment rate.
4). Education priorities. If you have a shortage of High Tech Engineers, and your education index is high, then perhaps you have your education priority for High Tech Engineers set to low. I tend to find a priority of at least 20 is necessary to prevent shortages, alongside a high +180 Education index.
5). If you let unemployment get to dangerous levels (an employment index around 80 does serious harm to your country, that is near Great Depression levels of unemployment). Then the automation will step in to try to help, by building new corps.
6). If you don't want automation to come and take over, make sure to maintain an economically healthy country. The automation kicks in when there is a crisis, kind of like an outside IMF emergency manager. The solution, is to not get into the crisis, in the first place so the automation doesn't try to help you out of it.

Follow up question how do you raise market value of a corp. That's how I was making my money i'd sell of shares of my public corps now I have several state corps but none want to go above 350M |
| Khome | Wednesday, March 13, 2019 - 10:04 pm
Takes time. As long as they turn a profit, their market value will rise and their PE ratio would drop, which is what you want. You can always transfer cash from your country to your state corps if you want to help speed it up. There is a limit thought. |
| evader23 | Wednesday, March 13, 2019 - 10:35 pm
If I lower taxes and or profit trasfer does that help
it is at 13 and 60 right now. |
| Khome | Thursday, March 14, 2019 - 12:13 am
yes, put each at zero if you can afford to do so. |
| evader23 | Thursday, March 14, 2019 - 12:33 am
ok ty |

Evader23,
Corporation value is mostly based on the Corporation's long term profitability. A profitable Corporation will rise in value over time. Putting lots of supplies and cash in a corporation can also drive up it's value, but it is expensive so it isn't really profitable if you are intending to sell the shares on the market.
After tax profits determine Corporation value. So lowering your tax rate helps a lot. Lowering profit transfer on the other hand, only lets cash build up in the corp, which is a minor part of value, so often, isn't worthwhile.

Basically what I just said... |

Khome,
I know it's what you said. I was just adding some extra detail. For any beginners that read the thread, and want to understand how the systems interact.
