尊敬的大卫先生，您好！运行游戏时发现一处Bug，特作反馈（游戏版本号：v6.9.02）：CEO年薪不能固定，即无论手动调0元或者其它任何数值，游戏里几天或者一个月后就自动适应地付高额薪水。

If all the players have the same bug but David can't reproduce it, I'll end up believing that David has a better version ^^.

Could you also send your backup? It will be easier for the development team if several players send in a save with a similar problem.

I did a topic with this problem https://www.capitalism2.com/forum/viewt ... 885#p35885

and brutus has the same problem too

How to reproduce?
Just run any game and watch how you are mysteriously paying wages for a non-existent employee when you don't even have any firm on the board yet.

Is this a new mechanic to simulate the living expenses of CEO's?

All AI's seem to be affected by this bug as well.

The bug with the CEO salary setting has been fixed. Please download the latest patch 6.9.03 from https://www.capitalism2.com/forum/viewt ... f=7&t=8360

感谢大卫先生如此重视玩家的意见建议，及时订正了我反馈的游戏Bug，同时感谢paulwoman玩家提出的好建议！后续我会积极参与您提出的topic。

I can confirm it was fixed for the player ...

However ...

The AI still seems to suffer from this recent change in how CEO salaries are handled. As all the AI's continue to have their CEO's take wages when they haven't even setup a business or company HQ yet. I believe this may actually cause companies NOT to invest or build new firms at all due to a result of negative profit inhibiting further business expansion. This is potentially pretty bad for AI company behavior.

I'd recommend that AI CEO's don't actually take a salary until they have either 'stocks' in other companies (for stock focused AI's) or setup their first firm on the board. I think it probably should be fixed in such a way that CEO's don't take a salary at all until the HQ building is actually built on the map. Right now it creates the weird situation where the CEO office isn't needed to pay out a CEO salary for AI's. While not game breaking or anything like that it is a bit odd and counter-intuitive in how the gameplay is intended where one needs an HQ to do this.

There should be a minimum profit before the CEO can take a "salary".

I think a profit of $100,000 would be sensible, as it is "easy" to get that amount.

I second and completely support this suggestion.

These proposition has a few option that could interesting you.

This has been fixed. An AI CEO won't get a salary until his/her company is profitable and a corporate HQ has been setup.
