Money Issues

[Fether]

So normally when I run out of money, I build another one of them taxing buildings and my problems goes away. But it is t working anymore. I’m out of money, and no matter how many tax buildings I make... and I’m about over due for a Viking invasion

those treasuries only increase the amount that you can hold by 1000 gold. you have to set the tax rate manually by clicking the building and adjusting the tax rate with the button. if you're on the merchants and ports beta then the tax rate adjuster is in the bottom left info panel.

Really? Cause I can adjust the price of individual tax houses. so as far as making more money, you just need a larger population?

You appear to be able to adjust the tax rate for each treasury, but that is because of a bug in the display. There is a single tax rate for all treasuries. When you adjust the rate, only that treasury will display the new rate until you save and reload.

If you have two treasuries and a tax rate of 1, go into one of the treasuries and increase the rate by 1. That treasury will now say the rate is 2. Go look at the other treasury and will will (incorrectly) show the rate as 1. But if you increment the 1, it will (correctly) change to 3. (And then the first treasury will be displaying the wrong rate since it will still say 2.)

I don't know a way to fix the displays other than save and reload.

Also, adding more treasuries after the first just increases your ability to store money, it does not affect your ability to collect taxes or the amount collected. All treasuries work together as a single unit to collect the taxes.
