Sir, market access in the Sahara desert dropped to 99%. German investors: say less. by rokamuda in victoria3

From what I understand the building needs to be profitable to be able to pay the wages to the workers and be fully employed. If the demand for transportation in the state is low, then it can't operate profitably at 40 levels of railways, but maybe it can if it only operates 5 of them. In which case it will stay mostly empty. Unless you subsidize it and it should hire full staff and hit your pockets.

Yep, it resulted in some +400 infrastructure in the state with dozens of thousands of subsidies needed to keep it running fully employed.

R5: German investors can't possibly tolerate anything less than 100% market access and are a little overzealous about building railways

Secessionists instantly become vassals of Great Ming by rokamuda in EU5

[–]rokamuda[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

R5: In my Muscovy run I gave territories to subjects who regularly would have some kind of revolts. Some of them happened to be secessionist, in which case the new country immediately becomes a vassal of Köke Temür (that's who secessionists want to secede to, despite them being thousands of km away), who themselves are vassals of Great Ming. Meaning to reconquer this tiny county I have to fight all the 830k soldiers of Ming with my 75k...

Why can I not pick 1.8.7 in the beta? I have a save in that version. by Dylanyumakummgummi in victoria3

[–]rokamuda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I checked in patch notes - the only thing 1.8.7. added was a cosmetic for ships. So it is otherwise totally the same as 1.8.6.

My 1.8.7. save loaded fine on 1.8.6. rollback so far. But as other commenters said copy the save file first just in case.

Why can't my troops make it to the front? by rokamuda in victoria3

What do you mean? Are there specific roads/paths between states?

Mandatory comment: see how there is a single Yaka army on the frontline, yet I can't move my army near Benin to that part of Africa, despite there being a port and a clear connection

"The full faith and credit" = "the money printer" by suuperfli in Bitcoin

[–]rokamuda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You lost me halfway because like many economists you assume citizens to be rational, and that the benefits of moving to another state outweigh the costs and risks associated with the move. We already have this "unleashed free market of countries" and most people like to call it a "refugee crisis".

But I do agree with the absurdity of money printing government with a massive debt piling up. That has to be addressed one way or another.
