Capitalism 2 and Capitalism Lab Forum

I was playing a survival mode game, and had major fluctuation in commercial building occupancy. It went from over 90% then dropped to nearly 0%, and went backup to normal again after a year or so. It seems to be related to commercial building supply/demand value. It seems that only negative value allows commercial building occupancy growth. (on the other hand, apartment buildings have no such issue, negative value to slightly above 10 supply/demand is fine. The occupancy of apartments mostly depend on rents)

Is this intended for commercial buildings? Constantly fluctuation makes planning commercial district extremely annoying though.

We will investigate the problem.

Could you please provide us with your save game file and let us know the following?
1) The exact steps for triggering the bug with the save game

I've updated to 4.2.03 beta, the old save no longer works, so I'll have to start a new game to test if 4.2.03 still have the same issue.

I still have older version save of 4.2.02, where I was testing election. IIRC, the commercial buildings supply/demand should be close to 0 in both cities, just build one more commercial and the issue of dropping occupancy will show I think.

This is the save file for commercial occupancy test with ver 4.2.03, one in Feb with negative Supply/Demand, and regular occupancy, the other in March an AI company build a new commercial building push to +3 supply/demand, running with fast speed, you will see the occupancy dropped like a stone in months to near 0 in every commercial building in the city.

This bug will be fixed in the patch v4.2.04.
