Yeh it is a bug, if I remember correctly it is connected to trade nodes. The only way to fix it is to reload a save but sometimes that will not even fix it. However, you may now want to fix it.

By the way, you might want to download the free version of FRAPS that way you can take screenshots in game.

FRAPS use extra resources... Why don't use screenshot function in STEAM when you are already running it?

Guys! Use F12 and you can take as many screenshots you want to. Its a STEAM feature.

Really? Do you need the Steam game overlay enabled? I always downloaded FRAPS just for screenshots, what a waster of time...

More to the point how could he be making 5,700 per turn with -34 food. Wouldn't his town growth be in the negative? Wouldn't just all his towns be in revolt? I dropped down to -2 on my first play through and I had rebels popping up everywhere.

Maybe he used his million dollar bug to upgrade all castles and markets?

About the food.. i dont know how to make it better.. i just upgrade anything i can, like farms and stuff, but it doesnt get any better.

And i do get revolts, but most of my regions are green.

Have a read of my Shogun 2 Economy Guide it should get your on track. -34 food is not good and it means you are making some big mistakes in terms of balancing your economy/production. You need to balance what you upgrade and when you upgrade it. Upgrading castles and markets too fast will cause you huge problems. You should not be upgrading castles too much anyway they should stay at fortress level for the most part. I only ever have 1 or 2 citadels.

**Monsieur Alphonse** · April 14, 2011, 09:56 AM

He had -32 food before and then hit end turn. That resulted in -34 food and four million koku. This Finlay ends the debate about upgrading markets or not. Simply do it, build everything and some day a wise men from the mountain will come and he will give you lots of koku.
