Under rating threshold (show) I played a committee on one of my bills that was poisoned in effort to have the pill removed and it told me "Acting in support of a poisoned bill has cost you some constituent support." Shouldn't a conference committee be exempt from that unless I (or anyone that acts on it) vote to keep the pill?

Theoretically I guess? It's a loss of 5csp, so the coding effort never really seemed worth it.

You report the bug you found and I fix it. As I just did. The real question is how in the world this went unnoticed/unreported this long. Guess there aren't many names at the max number of characters allowed.

I'm not sure if I'll keep updating the VIPs to reflect the real world now that we have the player-input VIP system for foreign leaders. We'll see.

Under rating threshold (show) people are dying of poor health. taxes are higher than anywhere in the world, yet debt is higher than the gdp, and the people are still pretty happy.

+ - !

(2)

Developer response from delosford

I guess maybe unhappy people are more likely to die when unhealthy? Or maybe people are happy that money is spent in an attempt to do something... even if it's not exactly working. Though, population and GDP growth aren't presently too bad.

I can move your account to a facebook account, but I don't currently have things set up such that you can get at the same clout account from both a facebook and kong account.

Generally it's intended that you click on the button on the combo box, not some random place on the body. The button for the combo box is located quite far from either of the submission buttons.

Under rating threshold (show) could you make it so a tie in CC results in the multiplier remaining the same, rather than flipping a coin to decide the fate of america?

Developer response from delosford

That's about it. At this point you should be passing bills, buying new abilities and learning how to use them most effectively. Once you hit CT2, a variety of new gameplay options will open up.

Apparently when I genericized VIP selection I didn't write a special case for the president dying. Guess it hasn't happened in a while. I'll fix it before v1.0

The only way to change your stats is to equip different equipment. Some equipment gives bonuses or penalties to charisma.

Under rating threshold (show) does the drop in debt from taxes get calculated before or after the increase from being in debt?

+ - !

(1)

Developer response from delosford

I've actually been thinking about this question since you asked it. It doesn't exactly have any good answer. The way it is now I think it comes after, but I realized either entirely after or before wouldn't really be an accurate model. Even something like the compound interest formula doesn't really cover the taxation aspect, though I could calculate the debt rise itself more accurately. I think what I'm going to do in the near term is make half of it come before the multiplier, and half after.

Under rating threshold (show) Will there ever be an "outfit" setting as I constantly find myself switching back and forth between two sets of clothes and it'd be very helpful if you could save a certain set of clothes to an outfit and then switch from the main menu quickly.

Developer response from delosford

Optimal play no longer involves outfit changing. Make sure that you've read the forums for the recent stat changes. They're quite extensive, and haven't been put into the help files yet.

Under rating threshold (show) President Gote Focker has vetoed an Expand Anti-Discrimination Programs bill that was introduced by Kingsaa. its official. the president is racist. if theres one thing we can rely on obama on its to not be racist!

Developer response from delosford

Considering the low chance of those bills even showing up, I'm surprised this ever happened. I think it happened with UFO funding too, didn't it?
