Andy,

Please change the limit of how much cash CEO can have, 2000T is a very low limit, at least increase to 50Q (50 000T)

I lost about 500T of this problem as shares of my CEO corporations were sold but cash has not been added to CEO account due to this limit. I hope you can compensate for this game error.

Thanks

Until that is fixed, what if you direct traded the money from your enterprise into your account's wallet? Iirc, about a year ago the money cap for account level wallets was increased from 4Q to something higher (don't remember how much).

Direct trading works, but when you sell shares the limit stays at 2000T. Maybe the limit is added in many more places but i certainly witness that when selling shares. I hope other places will be checked too.

Andy has a log of transactions, so it should not be hard to check this.

Very strange, i transfered more cash via direct trading to increase to 2005T and next game month it was reduced to 2000T with no reason.

Must be an error, only Andy can check.

The irony is that asking for bigger cash increase is actually what is wrong with the game haha

That is another story, for now bugs need to be fixed.

The problem is not with the cash but with ability to spend it, you cannot spend on army and there is no way to spend on economy.

Agreed
There’s too much red tape

I will increase the cash max numbers.

We hope that the addition of Tiny Atlas will introduce a new challenge that will require a lot of cash to build up new countries.

There is nothing in the Tiny world countries and everything will have to be moved from the existing worlds.

Andy,

It would be fair to publicly share these max numbers, they should not be a secret we explore the hard way.

Thanks

Hi Andy,

can you announce when this is done and what is the new limit - I hold new game cash transactions until this is changed.

thanks

Andy

We will increase the limit to 4000T.
You can move cash into your account on the portal.


The change will take place with the next update next week.

Lord Mndz

But why 4000T, many people have more than 10 000T and money sitting on account cannot be used for anything. I suggest raising this limit to 50 000T and removing ceo spending limits, so Ceo can buy and trade resources in the markets without limitations. That would also help to stabilize the markets

Andy

We have very good reasons to have chash levels and other values within a range.

we have now changed many of these limits.
The next game upgrade will take place in the coming 24 hours.

you can easily move cash into the account on the portal.
leaving 3000T in the enterprise seems much more than you will need for some purchasing and if you do, once you go "low" you can move money back.

we will remove any influence of cash on the enterprise score.
This should have been done long ago as it is quite easy now to manipulate the enterprise score.

Lord Mndz

It is not about the score, i want cash to work to make more cash, there are few options - give loans or buy resources. I would like to buy big amounts of goods when market is green and sell when ut gets red, but CEO has super low spending space, so eventhough i have all cash, but i cannot do much.

Andy

Nothing you can do with cash in a couple of days does not reach the level of 3000 T.
is I am mistaken, please explain.
we have now increased the cash levels and will try to limit the need for cash in corporations.

Tbh with you andi, 500B spending limit in enterprises is ridiculously low given the cost of products and services are way higher than many years ago. Most I could buy is 2 pairs of socks with that pocket change. I feel Enterprises spending limits should be at 2.5T to 5T. This 500B is pocket change to many and it really can not do much. Enterprises shouldn’t even have a spending limit lol it should be unlimited

Andy

I will look into spending levels in enterprises but the pricing of most products is now much lower than before.
weapons might be a bit more expensive.

And also andi, with the new planet coming, it would be great to add more use to Gold(not gold coins). How it will work is add a buy cash option on the space market so that we can use gold to buy cash which can be used for growing the new country. Because like you said, the planet is gonna be empty so we are gonna have to do everything. And I like the new planet thing because it will bring more use to the space markets
It would be fare to do the exchange at 2-5 gold units for 100B

Andy

This is not clear to me.
you can sell gold on the market right now and you get cash.

Not sure if you got the point, let me explain differently.

I have tons of cash, where do i need to invest it? I would like to speculate on the market but ceo spending space is super low. Why to have it at all. Why spending limit is needed when cash is no problem? Can you remove it from the point player has enough money?

Ceo can spend 500B per month,
Empire with 20 countries can spend 20 *2T=40T per game month.

I will look at the sprensing space in enterprises.

I understand the issue of too much cash.
we hope that the addition of an empty world will add a challenge.

Having the possibility to spend huge amounts of cash puts new players and players with much less cash at a hopeless position, not being able to compete.

have a lot of cash but being able to spend more but not 100 times more than others, keeps spending at reasonable levels.

@Andi
Let me explain a but more
I mean like add a buy cash option on the space markets
With the new planet coming its gonna require a lot of spending so buy adding that exchange option, we could mine gold and exchange it on the space market for cash.
This would not only add use to the space market but also raise the value of gold and building a gold reserve in our empire.

Andy

Monday, March 6, 2023 - 02:54 pm Click here to edit this post
You can do it now.

if you mine gold, you can sell it on the market and you get cash.

You can also sell gold on one of the space stations.

is there something I do not understand?

Andy

I tried to increase the spending levels in enterprises but the change requires an update to the database.
very unfortunate.
we will do so ASAP but it is linked to an upgrade.

The value of gold in the game literally stays the same regardless of damand and it would take us several real months just to mine 70k gold to exchange for 5T, and 5T is really pocket change to countries. I think you should look into having the value of gold change according to the markets

Andy

All products have a normal price, a top price and a bottom price.

we do not let products pricing keep going up or down.
we would have loved to do so but players do not really react to a high price.

I would have expected that if a price of a product is very high most of the time, many will start corporations and produce the product and the price will normalize.

this does not happen, so if we just let it go with the market, we could end up with a very high price and any corporation that needs gold will bankrupt.

gold is not a very good example, but electric power, if we let it go, will bankrupt each and every corporation.
Same with services and high tech services and there are more.

pricing normaly follows the market in the range of 50% to 150% of the normal price.
This is a factor 3.

Gold is in permanent shortage and reach the max level.

Gold mining is very profitable. if someone will start many gold mines, (find countries that have a lot of gold), there could be very high profits.

5T is for most players a lot of money and if you have 10 such mines, or other mines (all raw materials are very profitable) you will end up with 50T.

I am wondering what you meant by the trading of gold on the space markets.

Amalie

Monday, March 6, 2023 - 05:47 pm Click here to edit this post
What I meant by trading gold on space market is like how we can use gold coins to buy cash, why not make it a feature on space market where we could trade some of our gold reserves that we mined for cash and same for trading cash into gold reserves

So that like the issue mndz is having, he could convert his pile of cash into gold reserves so he wouldn’t have to keep losing money due to limitations.

Amalie

And you can even set it with the current exchange rate you have with 1 ton of gold can buy 23.60B cash

Amalie,

As we speak, a lot of gold is changing hands for cash on the markets in all worlds. There is a shortage of gold and whenever you wish to do so, you can sell gold for cash and the other way around on that same market.

You can keep gold in your country and in enterprises and use it as a reserve. There are other materials that have a very high value and can also be kept as a reserve.

Also I would like to please just take a look at my account transfer logs just to see the number of soldiers and officers I transferred into my country Fujian on WG and you could see that amount it no longer in Fujian. This is why i said they disappeared after the december update but after you check you said it did not come from the update but yet my soldiers and officers are still missing and they were not employed as I’ve made sure to off that feature.

To summarize I would just please like a return of the amount of soldiers and officers that is missing
That is all i ask of you

Amalie,

I have no way to know how many there were and were they went.

I asked for the oldest backup data to be looked at.
not very easy.

any data, screens etc could help.

also, if you can tell me how many you bought and when (2, 6, 12 months ago?)

The email is labeled “FYIâ€
