3.2.01B Bug: media firm no employees

[WilliamMGary]

it takes people to run media firms and the top executives makes a good living. So for this discussion how many employees should it realisticlyrics take to run the different media firms? Should the salary of the media firm employees be a % of the media firms revenue?

should we have option (s) say for newspapers to hire more journalist or investigator journalist to help raise ratings or provide a rating bonus?

Employees are attached to the media firms. I remember that I have counted the numbers in the past and TV Station had something like 960 employees.

In patch 19 I had a pure media firm and it showed no employees. I will provide a screen shot shortly.

The factory which I setup by mistake at 52% (unable to delete) has 0 employees. The operating parts of the company are the media firms. Looking at the income statement and the rankings it shows 0 employees for the corporation.

David,

This is STILL an issue with the latest patch. I also request that in future patches instead of saying "various bugs posted in the forum" that you actually link to the forum post that bugs are suppose to fix so that we can verify the issue is resolved as well as allowing us to be aware of any issues that are still left uncorrected.

[David]

These issues will be addressed in the next patch.

David,

Media firm still does not have any employees (Expenses) or in the rankings. Company in my current game has 1 TV station no salary expenses and 0 employees in rankings.

[David]

This bug will be fixed in the next patch v3.2.02.
