How to Stabilize the Game Economy (White Giant)

I'm just some jerk who learned a lot about economics from Simcountry back in the day, and who hopes that more people will learn from it in the future.

You learned a lot bout economics from SimCountry? That explains a lot. I've learned a lot about internet personalities, but I can't say I've learned much about economics from SimCountry.

Could be Treasurer. If he's banned from forum in a month we will know for sure.

W3C needs to adjust quite a lot do balance the production on the worlds to reduce shortages, hence that will not happen. Very few players care much about the flaw in SC economy unless it shows on the finance page.

Personally id love to see relaxed price controls and improved C3 AI to close and build shortage corps. In a price-control economy, such as SC, its hard to decide what the "right" value is for an item. Free markets has at least till todays date been shown to be more effective in price-settings than state technocrats. It wiil take much effort for an W3C employee to "correct" prices to induce market balance. Its a easy solution to use GM power and create shortage goods and that the solution being used.

A true balance will never be in SC, since W3C needs to make sure that the GC economy doesn't crash (reduce over-profits). I do however want to believe that W3C atleast views todays

Thanks, NiAi. It's good to hear someone really weigh in on the matter.

funny thing is, i actually measure the derailing when Andro's anger turned on people who have run out of breath talking about this before him, rather than those who have created and have power to change the current system to his liking. I like to crash threads once in a while, but he actually began the derailment.

They could make FMU corporations a level 3 corp - that would allow free members of level 3 status to build such highly profitable corps and create more supply.

Completely agree with you there, Emperor Andross.
Also, maybe the game should lower the number of FMUs needed per company. As someone said above about a third of corps being needed to support FMUs, there should be less so that the game isn't so one-sided.
Enterprises level up, build 100 FMUs Corps, the supply demand for services goes out of whack, so more service corps are build and FMU corps are needed to maintain these corps. Its a dysfunctional system.
As for the GMs injecting supplies to help the economy/ stop a GC crash, maybe lax it out a little, and maybe they can sort out a system which means there will always be a certain supply of basic materials and food always flowing in.
I'll demonstrate and many may ridicule, but stay with me.
This is how it works:
-Every nation in the 5 worlds obviously have cities/towns/counties which contains 100% of the population. Well, to me, it seems a little weird that outside those ci

Lower the demand for FMU yes.

Corporations outside of my control, no.

Well, in a free market economy, the government doesn't have very many powers over business.
And it is basically the same as having CEO corps, only instead the corps are run by themselves, like C3 corps.

The game needs the ability for a more powerful country to create factories in another country that allows them to. The population of counties also creates a problem as they do not have enough to suistain the corporations needed for the products to enter into the black.
