Offering and wealth
« on: May 14, 2020, 01:59:38 pm »

Hey guys,

quick question: let's say I created a bit too much wealth, meaning I have a hard time dealing with the sieges and beasts that the game sends my way. Now I know that I can lower the civ cap to decrease wealth production but I was wondering about something else:

Does it work to decrease fortress wealth and thus siege sizes by offering large sums as gifts to traders? I would be able to appease some civs and decrease my wealth stats as well. Does it work like that or is the exported wealth stat still relevant here?

Any other tips to reduce wealth without crippling my industries?

Most of your wealth is from artifacts and mastercraft engravings on economic stone, probably.

Once the wealth is produced and trips the limit, its tripped, no going back, without dfHack scripts to hermit the fortress, or exterminate stuff, until your lethality balances out.

Maybe when microeconomy code is made, going backwards will be possible. Ive wanted this, too. Some embarks are incredibly wealthy in natural ore.
