Economics - Ground Structure

[Wilhelm von Preußen]

The "country" structure of economics
The first dimension in the economic country managment. I got many on paper written, will release that stuff soon


The "Department" structure of economics
Now you will have some fun and lead your provinces into great wealth. Lets pick Brandenburg for that.
That policy is the second dimension in the country managment.
Brandenburg is divided into several "districts", as every province in the game is divided in districts. But, Brandenburg is a large province, so they got some more districts.
Every district got its own characteristics in ground condition(range from very arable -> desert), Rain Quantity, Air Humidity topographically condition(from mountains -> flat country), existence of rivers, average temperature and number of inhabitants(with all their own characteristics like working morale etc. -> own thread for that!!). In a few districts you can discover raw materials depending on your technology. Raw materials will be coal, oil, Copper, Gold, Silver and Iron.
The productivity on each district depends on the district-characteristics, the technology and the building on it. The prussians drank a lot of beer, so dont wonder when they revolt because u have build a hop farm in the alpes .


Possible MainBuildings
Raw Materials production:
NAME/PRODUCT/top_ground_condition/top_rain_quality/top_topogr_condition/top_temperature/air_humidity/RIVER/COAST/PRICE is in discussion!

Mines:
For each raw material there`s one special mine/oil field with different costs. The productivity of a mine depends on the district`s inhabitants and the actual mining technology and/or the additional buildings for mining.

Goods production:
NAME/NEED_RAW_MATERIAL/PRODUCT/TOP_TOPOGR_CONDITION


The "city" structure of economics
The third dimension in the economic country managment. Same as point 1, i got many on paper and will release soon.

[Bismarck]

So, you mean that it is like in HoI. There is a whole industry controlled by the player and a free market is not simulated?
I think you should add that because when you fight against an enemy increase your industry or you conquer some african countries, I think especially the cap colonies which have gold reesources and this pushes your industry or when you decide that an enemy has to gave you money as contribution!

I'm afraid, i do not understand, what Your point in this matter is. Do refer to an implementation of stockmarkets and/or protectional government policies to preserve one countries own economy against its competitors?

[Bismarck]

I mean that you as the player aka Goverment don't control the industry! You only help the industry with edicts etc. but the industry work for herself

[Germanicus]

Thats right...or you can help, when you give them land to build their factories on or something like that.

[Der Zarewitsch]

Raw materials will be coal, oil, Copper, Gold, Silver and Iron.

What about wood?

[Bismarck]

I develop a new industry system with Marshall Vorwärts and we will present it if it's ready.

[Caesar]

Raw materials will be coal, oil, Copper, Gold, Silver and Iron.

What about wood?

Wood becomes Coal
Holz wird oft zu Braunkohle weiterverarbeitet

Why Silver? Its verry simmilar to gold.
Warum Silber, es ist dem Gold sehr ähnlich.
