Stability in cities or garrison mechanic bugged?

[Bungd-up]

There seems to either be a bug with stability in cities or garrisons not letting you recruit enough troops for your city. In Yasniy I have a population of 7165, and I have a garrison of 20 squads. I'm not able to recruit any more troops despite having plenty of weapons, reservists, munitions, uniforms and vehicles in the inventory. Despite this, the city still says "Police squads are needed to maintain law and order!" and it keeps causing loyalty to drop.

I am not sure how the reservists generate but usually to get around it I transfer reservists from other towns trying to make sure all towns and cities have reservists.

Have a ton. Not the issue, either garrisons cap at 20 vs armies at 30, and the game's loyalty mechanic just doesn't account for this and thus is broken, or there's something else wrong with loyalty. Either way the system needs an overhaul as it's quite literally making the game unplayable right now after a few hours.

Greetings. It seems to me that you don't have enough garrisons in any of your other cities.

Hello. In order for new reservists to show up - build residential houses in agricultural villages.

You're doing something wrong, the system is working properly.

Incorrect. All my other cities say "Law and order established". Reread my post and you'll see the issue is exclusively with Yasniy.

Can you please take a video? Put the cursor on the stability, and then show the garrisons standing in the city, if you don't mind.

Thank you for the clarification, Nash.

Not sure how to take a video but I'll get you a screenshot, sure.

There's one screenshot, there are more 10 man squads below, but the garrison list can only show so much. I've used what I assume is 20/20 maximum slots because even with hundreds of weapons, uniforms and Reservists in the city's supply I can't recruit more than 20 squads. What's weird is a couple seconds after taking that, I saw it do this:

(I've got my army selected here, hence the different troops) It seems to random jump between saying that it's losing loyalty and being stable, but loyalty keeps dropping. Like this mechanic is completely broken. And I can't recruit 20 squads of 10 troops, because if I do that then I run out of *all* food resources in about a week despite having 3 or 4 bakeries, 2 canneries, and 2 fisheries. I'm already losing food like crazy with a 20-squad garrison in Yasniy, 6-squad garrisons in all my other cities (which are stable BTW), and that half-strength army. But food consumption also being completely unbalanced is another topic entirely.

Hi Bungd-up
Try using police squad instead of militia squad , one police uniform unit can handle 70 population, so you need 11 squads for your city.

[Honcho]

you need police not militia, I'm not sure if police without uniforms gives the same order bonus as police in uniforms.

Will do. TBH The loyalty mechanic needs to be either improved or at *least* explained better via a tutorial in the next update.
