New Feature

Auto Set up Factory Production

In addition to the Layout Plan Library, the game now offers another tool to automate the process of setting up the production layout for your factory.

If the game you are playing is based on a MOD with new products, to use the Layout Plan Library, you will have to manually add the new products first. Now with this new tool, you can set up factory production for any new products from your MOD instantly without any extra work.

Check out this web page about the details of this new feature: http://www.capitalismlab.com/auto-set-u ... ction.html

still cant get more than 30 AI people in my game if you don't play with many companies. Even using the Script option for 50 AI persons doesn't give 50.

Did you try not to use the script and create a game with maximum competitors and see if you do get 87 persons? Number of competitors directly affect how many persons in a game.

no scripts 4 opponents give 30 AI's = not enough.

isn't a problem with higher no. of companies, you get more even with scripts (83 I counted with 40 companies and no script).

but its still a game bug since you can potentially have 49 subsidiary companies if you want.

So this should be an DLC issue, not for the main release (for core game, it's enough I think). Perhaps you could make a suggestion in sub DLC subforum. How many persons do you think you need with sub DLC?

for subsidiary - 49 for companies + 3 for CEO/CFO as minimum

but ideally more as that would still leave you having to hire the no skill people etc

so im just going to stick with as many as possible - which presumably would be the 87 or whatever you get - it should always be the same because no matter how many companies you start with, you can always end up with the max 50.

and its not a suggestion, its a bug, the game doesn't generate enough people to cover all the companies you could start.

The core game doesn't have forming subsidiary option. So it's only marginally an oversight or limitation on the Sub DLC only, and this thread is for release version, I would think this discussion should be moved to sub DLC subforum.

you may consider it as such if you will

fact remains the script option for 50 persons does not work if you have less than X companies.

You can make a new post in the script subforum detail the problem, and make your point easier for others to follow, even linked our discussions (no everyone has the time to follow all our discussions inside an announcement post). It will easier for everyone else to discuss, even some screen shots or save files illuminating the issues you have. Personally I don't feel there is a shortage of persons the way I setup the game, but might be different for anyone else. And preferably more specific, after all the discussion we had, I still just get the idea you wish for more persons, but how exactly? Always maximum 87? make scaling up with AI competitors but change the ratio or calculation? More persons might cause not enough head icons would it need mod? or script, etc. Even make number of persons dynamic, like the number of corporations, when there's not enough automatically add some in, etc.

Right now every single unit every firm has only one "employee", and make training budget as well as salary cost quite cheap. Is this intended for 3.5.08 patch?
