Hello Victorians! A quick and small hotfix for 1.8, which should be compatible with 1.8 save games! There is an crash for some players that we are looking into, but currently has a possible workaround of launching Steam through Administrator mode. Checksum for the hotfix is, 'affa'. As always, this post is not for bug reports, please instead post them in the bug reporting forum (including a save and steps to recreate is always useful). The following changes have been made to the game compared to 1.8.0: [h2]Balance[/h2] [list] [*] Reduced the stability gain from low liberty desire subjects in the Unstable Raj Journal Entry by 50% [*] Buildings will no longer include the impact of taxes on expected Standard of Living when setting wages, so that increased taxes don't automatically lead to increased wages (or vice versa) [/list] [h2]Bugfixes[/h2] [list] [*] Subsistence farms will now set much lower wages and aim to return as much profit to their owners as possible (this was causing world starting GDP and GDP growth to be significantly depressed compared to 1.7) [/list]
