Capitalist have stopped investing

[hm465]

I have laissez faire law and investment pull almost full but capitalists for some reason stoped investing in new buildings

[Denny Crane]

What are you building ?
laissez faire only use capital from investment pool to build : manufacturing and certain raw resources extract like wood , fishery , oil and infrastructure.

I stopped building as goverment for few years to see what happens. But despite i have states with free pops, factories which are profitable and space to build new building capitalist arent doing a thing. (Im playing as Spain). Also i can see lot of money going to investment pool but they aren being used to do anything. It looks like a bug for me

On my save I have 4M in the investment pool. Laisses Faire law and I'm building factories. The construction is not funded by the investment pool. I'm afraid this might be a bug. I'm playing the BETA

[hm465]

I have also notoiced that my conmstructiomnm allocation is now 100% goverment despite that i didnt change law

[Ninephoenix]

It's a bug, I have it too

In the investment panel, it tells you which building investors want to invest in and in which region. You have to do it manually.
You can try to go game sttings a put investment in manual no auto.

I had this problem with laisses faire too. The number of construction building was -1 and it would take forever to complete

isn't the investment pool and investment from capitalist etc different? they have their own seperate build queue in 1.2. and the pool just fills up for your own use, where the capitalist/shopkeepers etc all invest in their own little projects, and build up their seperate build queue (which seems to use around half your construction output).

Nope before the patch, the investment pool whas used by you and you get money back, buildings stuff they liked. Now Investment is their money to build. Depending on the laws, you keep 25% - 75% of the building capacity for yourself. This means if you are building, as for laizi fair, 25% of the total cap is used by the government, while 75% is alocated to the private sector, or in Numbers from 100 Building points, you use 25 they 75. If one side isnt using their points, than they are sent to the other side, so if you havent used them cause you doont build, they use the 100 points after a while.
The Advantage of Interventismus is now that you get less money to build compared to agriculture or laizi fair, but you can cancel their projects, and have more controle where and what they build, what is nice

If you're playing the 1.2 beta some big changes were made to the auto-expand system. I recommend reading the article below, but the short version I seem to have experienced is that the buildings the investment pool would pay before are buildings that you now have less control over precisely when those funds are used. You can still queue up any buildings you want, but even if you pause all buildings the investment pool seems to still be used if whichever pop supports the pool seems to think new buildings can be supported. I have noticed even if I pause the queue myself the "pool team" will still build as they see fit. I don't particularly have an issue with that. It's just not been very clear to me when exactly that's happening or why.

You are now pausing government construction, but not the private ones, what perfectly makes sense. When a country cannot pay a construction company, why should a private investor not beeing able to hire the company?

[Ninephoenix]

No theres a bug where these private constructions just stop even with enough in the investment pool, empty building slots and and lassez-faire. That's what this thread is about.

is that when they have a red X by them? and it doesn't build the building? if thats what your talking about, it's because the private and government buildings conflict (e.g your both trying to build 2 mines, but theres only room for 1)the number goes red on the build page and it won't construct, you'll need to cancel your own buildings of that type, and let the investor ai build it.

[DinoMight]

i love all the people in these comments who think they are smart and helpful with their explaining on how private investment has changed on beta, while showing total inability to read rofl

not sure if you guys noticed, but if he is playing beta he is *proooobably* aware of the changes, and if you *maaaaaaybe* read OP thoroughly like you did beta patch changes

than maybe you'd notice that he idd has problems with new system not working properly, along with many other people here as well

or like psychotic fury, at least engage in troubleshooting with the op

jeeeeeez

the thing is, op says that he stopped all of the government construction
and thought that private sector would use its 75% to build, but alas it doesnt build anything, so since he also doesnt build anything, nothing at all is being built, meaning, there cant be no building conflicts, and he cant cancel the building, since he already isnt building anything


its a bug, i had it as well
