Wind Farms

It is now possible to remove wind farms you do not want to have.
the command is on the energy report page.

Corporations

Updates to some of the corporations.

Some corporations are now producing a fraction more than before.
This is done because certain products show shortages that are too large to fix. When a shortage is so large that hundreds of new corporations will be needed to bring production levels up to the required level, some corrections are needed.

In general, shortages continue to be very large.

The corrections in this upgrade will not cause any disruptions to the markets.

High Level Workers

Shortages of high Level Workers continue to be quite large.
we have now increased the percentage of new workers that become high level workers. The change is not large and is not the first one.
we hope that the need for manual conversions will decline.

Suspicious Transactions

There are many controls in Simcountry to discover situations that are unlikely to happen.
These controls exist as long as the game and helped us in discovering many errors in the past.

In the mean time, with many additions and new functions, many of these controls became obsolete and new situations occur where there are few or no checking.

we have started to add more checks on transactions in Simcountry that are strange or should be impossible.
Some players try to do the same which is excellent and we hope to be able to find possible errors.

For your info, we do have a huge, multi gigabyte logs of transactions from every corner of the game and we keep them for a very long period of time.
we will make an effort to comb such data and find anomalies.

Game Levels

The conditions/requirements for game levels in Simcountry have been tuned for the second time in the past months.
Many game parameters were updated in the past years and game level requirements must follow.
As an example: the requirements in terms of the size of the population are outdated. Population numbers used to be under 80 millions while now, the numbers can grow much higher.
The changes are small.

Changes are very small.

Corleone,

Many types of industrial corporations produce 2 or 3% more.
it will help even larger shortages.
