Bankruptcy Brick-Walling

[rainbowgummybears800]

I had gotten a notice a few sporadic times about being in the red, but I had always taken out a loan or sold items and rooms in order to get in the positive and it never stayed in the red longer than a minute or so. However in a single month update I went from having tens of thousands in the bank to a significant negative number, I do not know how much because as soon as the month changed it took me into a complete bankruptcy screen with no way to exit saying all my single loan was paid off but I was required to sell several of my exhibits. I could not defer this screen to take out loans, I could not exit the game to stop it from saving over the file before I hit bankruptcy and when I had to force restart my computer to try and open an earlier save, it brought me right back to the bankruptcy screen with no way to exit. I cannot figure out how to revert the save and honestly this bug makes me want to quit playing this game entirely. I have an extremely long time spent in this game and this is heartbreaking. Is there any fix? I sincerely hope this is a bug and not an intentional game feature.

you are one of the few to reach the games "fail state" that should be an achievement.

the way economy works in this game is slightly different to other management sims. most of your "expenditure" is only calculated at the end of the month with the exception of restocking vending machines and gift shop shelves.

you make the majority of your income over the course of the month via donations and shop&cafe sales, if by the end of the month you don't have enough to cover the expenditures you go into the red.

the biggest cost you will have is staff wages, expedition costs are the 2nd biggest but they are deducted when you send the expedition keeping your total low. loans add to the end of month expenditure.

TL:DR if your expenditure is 7000 you need 7001 at the end of the month to stay in the green.

I've had this happen when i cancelled a marketing campaign, it sorted itself out but yeah income seems a bit screwy to me right now. Apparently monthly will show i made 32k profit but when i pause and look i made nowhere near, sometimes it seems like i've even gone down in balance.
