And thanks. I've read so many of the posts about this issue that I'm just frustrated at this point cuz I've done everything I can think of.
I definitely understand the frustration. No worries! We can take a look and see what's going on :)
I assume it's meant to export from the game directly into ZIP format?
I think sometimes it will zip automatically, but sometimes you have to manually zip it, but not sure. Either way, this works :) Thank you so much!
The way the game is balanced, Nuggets won't expand the population exponentially because the amount of Nuggets you would end up with might fry your computer or at the very least tank your computer's performance. There's no designated cap on the quantity of Nuggets you can have in the game; just the more have of them, the harder it is to manage.
Is there something I can do, other than Cupidon and Clone Center, to spur the population to grow?
So basically, the way this has been explained to me, is that the population will still steadily increase, just like how it was when I loaded up your save file. But because Nuggets, unless there is a research perk or a trait that changes this, only live for about 50 years, the oldest group will start dying all at once, which looks like a big dip and is totally normal. Their kids replace them and start having more kids, and the cycle kind of continues. You can research different perks that will allow your Nuggets to live longer and have more children. There is also a Nugget trait when starting a new game called Matenator if you want to watch your population boom very quickly (though they also die faster too).
I hope this all makes sense. Please let me know if it doesn't and I can try to clarify more :)
I often had pairs of 200 unmarried nuggets at any given time, feels like they don't pair or mate enough to keep up with high numbers. I tried introducing some Matenators but it didn't really do much as they didn't pair up as often as I'd like and just spent time working.
If you want a bigger population you can try cloning and then breeding some highlanders since they live forever, basically a permanent working population, barring accidents.
It's frustrating. It can't be due to a focus on computer performance, as I have a very powerful pc. Haven't found a reason for this yet...I hope my population will continue to grow.
Something else to consider isn't so much how well spread and stocked the eateries are, but rather how much actual usage they're getting. You might have enough cooked food, but it could be there aren't enough free tables to eat at, so then hungry Nuggets won't be able to get their food from Eateries anyway. Instead they'll be forced to eat raw food, sometimes from the other side of the planet. I've also noticed that the food minister tends to place farms/fisheries/garrisons when this starts to happen, so I usually take that as my first indicator to check the usage. I also do the same for leisure, i.e. just open a few random business/parks and see how full they are. If they're looking full, then I build more until this stops.
With any luck, maybe some of this will have helped you, OP.
