oops I killed 19 million of my own citizens... with no repercussions!!

oops I killed 19 million of my own citizens... with no repercussions!!

Heres how I killed everyone:

A Class 10 planet had 24 million people on it, they were overpacked and understantably unhappy about it. What fed all these people was a single Tile of +300% food, with a xeno farm on it, and the colony tile (giving me 29 MT of grain/week and even more room to grow, not bad for one tile).

So.. being the responsible ruler I dissasembled the Xeno Farm, planning on juggling my food stocks to maintain the level I've got and not grow anymore. That left 5 MT of food (from the colony tile), and an end of turn. I knew it would be ugly when I hit next turn....

POOF! population: 5 Million. not a tear in the house... not repurcussions, no shame shame, no population chart plummet. just 19 million people dead, business as usual.... .... can we say bug? well, maybe not bug, but something a beta tester should have tried so it could have been identified and fixed in the code or whatever... I mean I should have at least got a guilt trip GNN report or something!! And the fact a good 10% of my population vanished over a 1 week period should have shown as a verticle plunge in the population history-chart.

Can you say "death furnaces to incinerate slaves for energy" (IGN: http://uk.pc.ign.com/articles/668/668076p2.html). Oops! You topped the Drengin!

The +100% tiles are very usable, just make sure you can put down 2 entertainment centers.


Yes. For each initial colony " base", farm, and 100% bonus you should build one entertainment building.

Your homeworld's capital produces twice as much food so build two entertainment buildings for it. This will seem like many tiles being used but a huge, happy population per planet equals huge amounts of cash,influence,security from "light" invasions,soldiers for transports, and colonists for colony ships or transports.

You can ferry population between you're planets.If a planet is at maximum population then launch a tranport or colony ship and ferry them to a developing planet.

ROFLMAO!

This thread is one of the funniest I have ever seen on this forum, the pure comic value people attribute to the poor misfortunates of their citizens is both shocking and highly amusing.

Bless you all for I need to stop reading or risk dying of lack of being able to breath. :')
