Broken Food Bonuses

[Drako0812]

I don't know what happened since I owned the old physical copy of the game, but food bonus tiles on planets only show up in the summary, icons are missing and when a farm is placed on them, they get no bonus. Has anyone else ran into this and is there a fix?

Also, I can't seem to remember if there used to be econ bonus tiles.

I think that changes were introduced as a part of latest 'Community update' (now farms provide % to food). Personally I believe that reworking farming was a huge mistake and it currently works much worse than in ToA. I hope it will be reverted at some point in the future. Fixes and AI improvements were a great part of CU, but significant alternations to core game mechanics should not have been included in the patch in my humble opinion.

Drako - I saw another post on this subject saying the same thing about 2 weeks ago - regrettably I do not remember where but it did cover the food bonus situation and agree entirely iwth your statement. There was no mention of a fix.

Thanks for the replies. I thought the percent bonus on farms instead of straight production looked different. Makes sense why the bonuses were disabled, though they could have made them work like the approval bonus tiles, since approval buildings are all percent based since forever.
