Would that affect foreign relations, harming the poor of another country, indirectly?
I’ve implemented this. it currently works with the same numbers as before, but now there is a new blue bubble for prices. It will show an input to the crisis situation when it triggers.
I’m working on the situation itself triggering a long term price trend down.
Also I redid the icons for rare earth metal mining, and the crisis so they use the same ingot icon as this new item, to make it clearer what stuff represents.
Looks good, thank you for this. I’ll reiterate that currency strength should also be an input. Neutral at 50%, makes the problem worse in the lower half and mitigates it in the upper half.
good idea, I’ll add this
Could we have percentage tooltips for all graphs?
Graphs in blue icons and graphs in focus groups?
Good point, this shouldn’t be difficult.
Could the water shortage be also simulated in a similar way?
Rare Earth Mining would probably exacerbate the water shortage, right?
Uhh, why?
You require water to refine minerals. There should be a similar situation with cash crops which are water-intensive when/if they are added into the game (sugarcane for example).
