The "Trading Bug"..
..turns out to be working in my favor. Now that I've got three cities up and running, since trades reset after loading into a new one, whichever city I'm playing has access to all the resources gathered by all the cities. Under the "bugged" system CityA isn't trading with CityB while I'm playing CityC so CityC has access to the oil, food, water, and waste systems that CityA and CityB have created. Then when I make CityD it will have access to the resources of all three earlier cities, making it easier to start it up.

Is it a bug? And if so, is it really that big a deal?

Of course it's a bug. The fact that it can also used as an exploit doesn't change this. If anything, this makes the bug *worse* since it's apparently not just an inconvenience, but also impacts gameplay.

I'm guessing there's a problem in the LUA code, but I'm not a developer so I can't be sure or fix whatever is wrong. I think all the LUA code is available to modders, and CitiesXLPakUnpak still works with this version. So is it possible for the community to fix this?

This is a new bug - the state of the trade sliders isn't saved with the city. They've touched quite a bit of the LUA code this time, so the claims about an "improved engine" aren't completely false, except they made it worse by breaking it.

The same for me. Trade reset after loading a city. It breaks my gameplay to re-ajust everytime my ressources between my cities. I can't believe that something what was running in cities XL can't run in cities XXL. It's a shame...

Thanks! Going to try that one. The developers have also said they will fix the trading bug, but this is very useful in the meantime.

The Game is not even working anymore. It suddenly Crashed Last night & have not been able play it since. I have launch & palyed XL 12. Just for the recorded some of the maps are infact Bigger. Paris for example is Bigger the XL Map of the same Name. I had a city on the Paris Map on XL12 at 60M. With bigger map I should be able to reach 100m Residents
