Max Income Recorded?

[andrey27]

I just wonder who recorded max incomein a city in Vanilla mode(i don't know how do other mods effect income). Or what is your very own max record? I'll tell mine later after i see yours...

[recentiy03]

I think almost 7,000 in Alexandria.

[Scelesticfish]

like 6100, in Venice when I was playing as HRE.

[andrey27]

holy mother of god. I get 8.700 florins with normal tax rate in Stockholm. It is 9300 with very high tax rate. There's still Merchant's Quarter ready to be built and also irrigation as well. although i can't hold on the city with very high tax rate. %45 public order kinda drives the city rebellius or something like that
do you think i can manage to get 10.000 sweet florins?

P.S: as Hungary

[Commander5xl]

I think Constatinople is the biggest income recorded and it gets into the tens of thousands and up.... there was some debate about income in cities and highest cities in vanilla or something awhile back hmm

Haven't played Vanilla in some time, but I had Constantinople at 16 000+ in SS when playing as Kievan Rus. To answer andrey27's question, probably you could get Stockholm above 10 000, I remember it was one of the richest cities in Vanilla. After Constantinople, Jerusalem, Antioch, Venice, maybe it's the richest, alongside Genoa, London and maybe Cordoba and Marrakesh.

Seems like you can't get bigger walls than the ones for 50,000, but maybe if you have a good governor who maintains a +1.5-.5% increase after you get 50K it can still rise...more often than not I've seen it go down half a percent once I pass like 52K, but it is probably possible to get to 60K with the right guy.

if you have the right general(mostly king) you can get over 70k ppl and still rising by %2.0 . that can lead you very high amount of cash with ''very high tax rate'' but if the general leaves the city you can face with a down rate as -%7.5. just like plague huh imagine the point which happens at the same time. probably you'll lose almost %20 of your population each turn. holy sh.t =)

i haven't seen jerusalem hit 4000 florins even once. constantinople, venice around 6000 and antioch around 8.500. but 16000?!? that's just a dream for me. how could that happen exactly?

It may be something about the SS 6.2, maybe that mod changes income mechanisms, I'll post the screenshot during the day when I come to my apartment. In the same campaign, Kiev, my capital, generates around 9 000 if I remember correctly. Anyway, will post screenshots to confirm.

[Scelesticfish]

Good god, why am I not getting this insane amount of cash?

[recentiy03]

Is 50K the max population a city can get?

[Stolet]

Not sure about Vanilla, but this Constantinople of mine had 60k+ citizens when it made those 16k florins.

[Timur_the_Lame]

i was makign 6700 with London once...lol. and like 7300 with Constantinople

You guys realize that the number displayed on the map is not the revenue of the city right? It's income minus a part of army upkeep based upon the amount of citizens. So the bigger your army grows, the lower the number while looking at the settlement from the map will be.

And how exactly is that calculated if what you say is true? I mean, what decides which city gets income reduction and which doesn't over army upkeep? Are you actually telling me that if my city, say Antioch, gives me 5000 golden florins per turn and I start mass producing an army from it, soon enough it will start giving me negative income? Sounds quite the false view as far as I'm concerned.

I think the number on the map is the actual revenue from the city. Including taxation and trade.

Also, in my current campaign my army is growing incredibly every turn (Mass recruitment due to war) and the numbers on the map next to my cities only rise rather than decrease. Same about any other campaign I've seen. I don't know who told you this, but it sounds false to me.

[Timur_the_Lame]

yeah thats why my settlements never get too big lol

If the income was calculated with the army upkeep, you'd have some cities with negative income, like in Rome TW. Besides, if the army upkeep was taken into account, and I have Constantinople on 16k and Kiev on 9k, my treasury would rise by at least 25k every turn. I would like that, but it is not the case

[Orospu çocuğu]

speaking of vanilla, i got my maximum income in antioch, 9k per turn.
venice, vienna and stockholm are also very rich regions.

as for stainless steel, constantinople is the best city, playing as the turks i remember i was having 12k per turn.

[Jianadaren]

It doesn't include army update. All the credits and debits are shown in the settlement details scroll. They all balance and don't include army upkeep allocations.

Sorry that I'm a little late with my proof screenshot, just got home. So here it is
