Uhm, the game is calculating nominal value incorrectly. It is double counting military assets.

The game is taking military assets when computing Total Assets. And when computing Nominal Value, it is taking both total assets and military assets into account. So, military assets are taken two times into consideration. That's an accounting mistake, because it makes our countries look much richer than what they really are.

Take a look at any country.

We will check it.
If you have a country where you can easily "see"it, please mail me.

Oops.
I saw it.
Thanks, we will fix it ASAP.
I don't think it causes any damage but wrong anyway.

Fixed.

The entire assets part of the game is being reorganized and will show on finance pages in the following update.

I should have mentioned this before, but I keep on forgetting.

In the nominal value page, "Expected Profit this Game Year" isn't working. Whether one is making 140B or 1200B a game year, it'll just say it is 0 for everyone.

The expected profit field was dropped a long time ago as it increased the nominal value but was uncertain and caused large fluctuations.

There are more issues with the nominal value and asset calculation and if you look more precisely, you will find them.

Space based assets are excluded, space centers and maybe more.

The financial pages are now being reconstructed. The feature did not make the planned update for tomorrow but is likely to make the next update, on Feb. 12.

The nominal value will link to the (improved) assets section of the financial pages.
