I loaded your save game and noticed that you own a large number of telecoms. What is the name of the telecom that has difficulty growing its market share? You can see the name of the telecom from the firm detail window or the Firm Summary report.

Thanx David,

why we need to start new game everytime game gets update would it not be possible to convert existing save file to make it run with new update?

Also there is a problem with city buildings stuff skill training, no matter how much i raise a money for training its not taking effect, i have to demolish existing building and build one to take effect. Then skill starts to raise till some lvl and starts to drop down.
Could there be a option to see how much people can Civil Building Support?

Hello David,

ok so when i start new game all Civil Buildings (Hospital, University, City Hall, etc.) start with Stuff Skill 14, it didnt change no matter what was education level in city,
later I made a Political Party and got Mayor in a city from my Political Party.

I raised training budget or some Civil Buildings and left it like that for some time. After 4 in-game years Stuff Skill in Buildings was still stuck at 14,
only when i demolished buildings and build new ones Stuff Skill started to raise in that building.

Q: How is Stuff Skill determent? It just say Training Budget and General Education in city, does Hospital Stuff Skill depends on % of people with university degree in city?

Could there be a option to see how much people can Civil Building Support? - For example city has 4 Hospitals and each can support 250k people total 1M, but city has 780k people,
meaning that city can still get 220k more people before building new hospital.

The bug has been fixed. Please download the latest patch v5.6.07 from viewtopic.php?f=10&t=5345

It is compatible with save games from the previous version.

You could roughly figure it out from the Supply/Demand display on the civic building interface. For instance, if you have one hospital and Supply/Demand is 50. It means that the hospital is only sufficient for serving 50% of the population.
