not sure if there was a post about it allready, did check whole board for over n hour n couldnt find one.
release: 3.0.22D beta
getting majority in a company does only let me change price policy and internal sale stuff + what not to produce
everything other box is thicked but it is impossible to change it
same for a new 100% subsidary set up by myself, its not possible to change it. there fore the subsidary which shold just take care of selling the crap i produce (to ensure the subsidary doesnt spend more on advertising then it has revenue), starts to litter R&D centers all over the place to research the same crap i am researching, hence wasting tons of money and i got to pay this prick 13 million per year for his stupid actions!
at the moment he opens every 3 days a new R&D center - i am closing it down ... loans are maxed out now i need to give millions every month for this crap so he can open 10 more r&D every month and i can close them down. thats totally stupid as i told the ceo not to produce anything (all product classes are red in his policies)
as i dont give him cash he does himself the crap everytime he has the 3 pennies to open R&D he will open up and instant close R&D until he got again the cash for doing this, killing the profit from the shops i handed over to him and finally this time he went bancrupt and my lovely lvl 9 shops are all gone with it. not funny really.

This will be fixed in the next update and we will attempt to improve the AI as well.

Re: can't change subsidary company policies
thanks you so much, its enough to change their advertisement behavior slighlty (not to spend more on advertisement then their whole revenue especially at 100+ brand rating which i guess is the result of dropping sales due to fully overstretched supplies of rawmaterial+consumer products and they think more advertising will raise sales instead of looking for better supply of rawmaterials and/or set up more factories) and the out of cash behavior when they start to destroy the A.I.companies with R&D centre setup/ insta close, close a few more firms to get cash n repeat till bancrupt (i ve seen them doing this up to a dozen times per month) with this 2 issues fixed A.I.s can be quite compettitive

Re: can't change subsidary company policies
The changes to the AI in v3.0.23 include that the AI will be less likely to close and re-open R&D centers.
Currently the AI should already stop advertising more if the brand rating is 100. Did you notice otherwise in the game? If so, please provide your save game.
