Like I sayds in this post,
viewtopic.php?p=33400#p33400

a company can make a split or a reverse split depending on whether the price is too high or too low respectively.

More info (sorry, I did't find the site's info in English.
For the moment, we have the opportunity to split the number of outstanding shares by half.

I would also like to have the opposite version, namely the reverse split, which has the effect of halving the number of outstanding shares.

One could imagine a condition to make this possible. Like, for example, a maximum of $10 and 1 million shares.

I agree, and I voted accordingly.

AI competition can and should have different standards for when they do stock splits/reverse splits, as well. It can and should be part of their personality.

the game already forces a reverse split if it gets to low

Any competent Capitalism Lab player should never have to use the reverse stock split, which can signal a company in distress or trying to avoid being delisted according to this Investopedia article. The game forcing the reverse stock split is fine with me. Plus, while the reverse split reduces the number of shares outstanding, it does not change the ownership percentage. It just makes the shares artificially more expensive to acquire.
