    Default Scottish money problem

    I recently started playing as Scotland on H/H and so far im at around 130 turn.
    but i have bit of an problem there that i dont know if its a bug or something that is meant to happen. every turn, or almost every turn im getting add_money -5000 for no reason. at first i thought that its a bug or its supposed to make Scottish more weaker against English. at first I decided to cheat to get some money. havent seen anything like this on any other countries, and ive tried almost every other country in SS. at around 100 turn i decided that i wouldnt care about money and just fought against England with everything i had then. now 30 turns later, im almost -100 000 money and lost Nottingham and York to constant English armies.

    I have Grim reality mod and RR/RC atleast, dont think i have any other mods that could affect this. And i have SS6.3

    Sounds like it could the pirate bug - apparently a script sometimes gets stuck and keeps draining the coffers. I don't know more about it, never had it happen to me, but try doing a search here for those words and see if something comes up.
    The game development business is one of bottomless greed, pitiless cruelty, venal treachery, rampant competition, low politics and boundless personal ambition. New game series are rising, and others are starting their long slide into obscurity and defeat.

    It is easy to get negative money using BGR if you aren't careful and even being careful the first turns are nearly always going to be negative since your generals cost money as they buy supplies and recruit units. Also if you have any coming of age or marriages there are costs and mercenary units can cost 3x or more the indicated recruit cost. Sack cities/destroy buildings and don't go on a recruiting spree. Recruit most efficient units for the money- usually cavalry and archers with cheap spear militia that will last just long enough to hold off enemy from your archers while cavalry win the battle. On top of hill, on bridges or in sieges the archers/crossbows will win your battles.

    the pirate bug is fixed in SS6.3 and SS6.2
