We already have randomly spawning deposits that boost raw materials production bonus. I believe we need similar boosts for manufactured goods.
Economic Upturn events - boosts production similarly to deposits
ie. Developing Infrastructure, Capital Investment
In times of war, civilian factories are seized or repurposed for military use. While this supports the war effort, it damages overall economic efficiency.
Proposed mechanic:
Each active war reduces a country’s production bonus
Example: −0.5% production bonus per declared war
Stacks with multiple wars
Design intent:
Discourages endless multi-front wars
Forces countries to balance aggression with economic sustainability
Rewards strategic, limited conflicts over constant expansion
Allow governments to directly invest BTC to improve national productivity.
Example system:
Spend 200 BTC for a +2% production bonus
Can only be adjusted once per week
Investment can be increased, reduced, or withdrawn (with a cooldown)
Introduce random, temporary disruptions to regional productivity.
Mechanics:
Randomly spawn on the map
Reduce regional production bonus by 5–20%
Last 24–72 hours
Design intent:
Adds unpredictability
Prevents permanent optimisation
Encourages geographic diversification of businesses
Allow countries to formalise trade relationships that boost productivity.
Mechanics:
Both countries pay a daily BTC maintenance cost
Only 1 trade agreement at a time
Both receive a production bonus
Bonus scales with:
Active population
Distance between Countries Capitals (discussed below) The closer, the greater the boost
Number of businesses operating in each country
Distance Between Capitals
The greater the distance between capitals, the lower the efficiency bonus.
Nearby nations benefit more due to:
Lower transport costs
Faster supply chains
Cultural and political proximity
Design benefit:
Encourages regional trade blocs
Makes geographic positioning strategically relevant
Discourages unrealistic global trade stacking
Benefits:
Encourages diplomacy beyond military alliances
Gives smaller nations leverage through population and business density
Creates ongoing economic commitments, not one-time deals
1 Region selected within core regions of a country. Used as mentioned above, also has a broad range of potential applications for military updates.
Infrastructure upgrade for regionss functions much like bunkers and military bases. Provides production bonuse to region based on level.
