Closed Beta Patch version 4.2.04 is now available

yes since you have to click the load script button if you want to use one.

in your save 22 a department store costs 105k to set up and 10k monthly

in my current game a department store costs 74k and 9.k monthly (I'm assuming this is because you have inflation set).

so I tried a test of making new games to see if its constant- with 127% difficulty

100k every time.

with the new DLC disabled and subsidiary enabled it starts at different amounts but typically- with 131% difficulty I got the following store costs for department
670k
390k
730k
580k
320k

with neither DLC enabled- 123% difficulty

380k
670k
700k

with new DLC enabled and subsidiary disabled -127% difficulty

100k every time.

In my proper retail version of the game without the new DLC, a department store always costs 1 million

Do you have a save file for that? I don't get why the same setting would have so many different build cost.

Also 4.2.0x build is specifically for CES DLC, so disable it certainly would cause issue, just didn't know it's related to build cost.

Also pls try to load my benchmark save, and then return to main menu, and then start a new custom game without exiting. I think it will fix the game, with or without new DLC.

A lot of the issues I can only reproduce once I load your save (and start new custom games from there). As I said it seems like one of your save with scripts in it, somehow broke the game setting causing lots of the anomalies you reported.

well my save is the one on previous page of this thread.

I didn't make saves of all the tests as it was purely created game check value, quit to menu, redo.

(its worth noting due to the way cap lab works, if I load your game with survival mode, it auto turns that option on for me, so I assume if you load my game with survival mode turn off, it will probably turn if off for your future games). - if I make a new game when its set at your settings with 579% a department store costs 75k to build

But as your game also shows reduced building cost, then I presume that is a bug


Also - need the option to move/demolish landmarks.

The initial build cost of a regular store other than general store at the beginning is reduced, but will become normal once the first general store is built. The problem of the store cost when new DLC is turned off is related to the new general store I think. In order for survival mode easier and with less population.

After all, this is beta build, so any bug happens is fairly normal.

guess I will check this out since my game is broken
