Victoria 3 - Dev Diary #96 - Open Beta 1.5 Update 1
Happy Thursday! It's time for an update on how things are moving along with the 1.5 Open Beta. Today we will take a look at a few major improvements we've made since last time, both to the new military-related mechanics but also a number of other...
I've been playing on the beta build and the changes to local prices and urban centres feel a lot more realistic.
What did they change about urban centers?
They made Services into a local good (ie. It can only be bought and sold locally in a single state, the market access for it is effectively 0). This means that urban centres tend to hold more population since they are constantly in demand.
They also made it so that Urban centres provide a small amount of Infrastructure, meaning that urbanization will help offset the infrastructure demand of factories and the like.
