Is budget predictor always innacurate?

[mighty_serb]

Hello,

I have just recently started playing Sicialian Vespers. I must say, this mod is the only reason why I bought the game. So congrats to mod creators, without you, I wouldn't have much of an interest in the game.

I have a question, since I haven't been playing unmodded version of the game to be able to compare.

The budget sheet (the money bag in the bottom right corner) has the budget prediction for the next term, right? Well for some reason, it is REALLY chaotic, and predictions are WRONG. On some turns, it would be correct, but very often it would be WAY OFF, making my budget balancing very annoying!!! For example, it would say that my budget prediction will increase by 700 florins next turn, however, as soon as next turn comes, I lose 6000 florins. Then I wonder, what happened to the money???? This makes the game very frustrating, and I must say, this is the only complaint I have. Is this the issue with the MOD or the game itself?

you've got to consider whether you are at war or not, whether you have armies in the field or not, etc. C2 adds such coss, but they are not on the budget
