Shortages continue for a long period.
This happened many times before but the scale of shortages is now more severe.
Simcountry has an emergency procedure that is monitoring the market and intervenes if there is a danger to the market in general.
The danger is that some essential products that are used in the production process in many types of corporations, become unavailable and cause large parts of the world economy to stop.
This never happened because of our interventions and the number of such interventions was always very small.
We now see the number of interventions growing.
In the coming weeks, we will make some small changes that might help.
- We will further reduce the cost of mainly ammunition. As before, we will do this by increasing the production levels of ammunition corporations.
It will reduce the cost of war and might reduce the number of corporations producing ammunition, making room for

The most consistent shortages I'm seeing on WG is with the HT maintenance products. The quality of the product is not being applied to their monthly consumption.
If the quality multiplier was used for all products that are listed as spending by the government the demand would be reduced. Since some of these are also related to the size of the military it would also cut military cost.
Construction is the only product I've found, listed as spending by government, that takes quality into consideration.
Because of the increased government cost at higher quality there is no incentive for a player to build and contract to their country. Also some of these corps don't do very well when owned by a CEO or as a public company.

You could purchase products at a lower quality and reduce cost.
the average supply quality is an index that is a factor in the welfare index.
the better the quality, the higher the welfare index.

On the finance spending page products that are listed as used by population decrease their monthly consumption as the quality increases. The monthly cost will be the same at Q120 as Q330 because your using 1/3 the amount, so you can increase the supply index with no additional cost.
The products I'm talking about are listed as spending by the government.
They don't follow the same rules. Here are two examples taken at 6 month intervals.
CONSTRUCTION:
Country A quality, use and cost are about the same.
Country B quality increased by 43%, use dropped by 30%, monthly cost is the same.
