Hi everyone !

I am playing on the ireland island and there is the main big island and there are islands around with ressources

I had build houses and works areas to dynamise one of the secondary islands but the problem is that either citizens live on the secondary island but work on the main island, or they work on the secondary island but live on the main island

Hi everyone

Is there a way or a mod to have the trade route screen and the stock ressources screen in the same time ?
I wondering to be on the trade route screen and have the count of each ressources to know im able to sell

Thx !

Hello!

I have 4 problems:

1. My economy.

TLDR: 10 custom office routes max export stimulation >100 still not making too much money

2. Tourists.

TLDR: Big tourist island, stopped coming, no change made

3. Old people.

TLDR: Social security off, keep them homeless?!

4. Transportation.

TLDR: 3 or 4 months inside metro

1. I am barely breaking even or just making a little profit each year. I do not understand exactly what is the problem, as yesterday economy was booming. I think the only change that I made was re-arranging the city center and getting rid of lots of duplicate service buildings, while adding a few more teamsters. Basically, I made hubs so that they have everything they need nearby, while having metro, bus stations and parking garage nearby.

Industrial zone, is basically a one way highway, with everything being manufactured there. It works quite nice, as basically I have barely to none road blocks. Teamsters office has a good way to reach the manufacturing and producing factories. Pretty much, the roads are made so that they further for mines, but they avoid city center. Even malls are outside of city center.

Wages are in the middle, I am trying to keep everyone in the well-off area. Happiness is between 70-80, in the last 100years, due to faith/medical limits due to well-off salary rule.

2. Tourists stopped coming to the island for no apparent reason. I have no rebels, no conflicts. Yesterday I set up a massive tourist island and they were coming. I was making decent money out of it, not that great not that bad, around 500.000 and I was hopping it will go higher and higher with me doing anything special as there were plenty more rooms on the island. Yesterday they didn`t even have transportation, now they do.

I am running 3 airports set for each class, 2 tourist ports set to each class, and 2 of those fancy things that they can come with their boat (or whatever it is). Still, they are not coming anymore and I do not understand why as I made no change to the island.

3. They slow down the economy. So, if you put them to work all life, they are just slow, unless you literally have a bus/metro stop or garage at every workplace. If they are retired, they keep occupied good apartments for adults that can produce.

I tried to "arrange accident" kill for ~500 retired people, but it was so slow that the adults will turn old people. It helps, but it is just too slow to be honest.

Currently I am keeping them homeless as I turned off the social security and most of the places to live are for well off class with the exception of bus and mall employees.

It was also a pain in the ass, as I had to pause all modern apartments to make everyone homeless, turn off the edict and then opening the modern apartments again for redistribution.

4. I have modern apartments hubs with a metro station in the middle of them. Basically its a big plaza with a metro station and apartments. Very close by, they have restaurant, cathedral, hospital, night club, etc. They have bus stop and parking garage nearby.

I think it works, I mean I have no traffic jams, teamsters just run everywhere, but I was watchin this dude, he took 3 or 4 months from one metro station to another. I have 9 metro stations.

Is this normal?

Thank you. I will provide answers to all your questions.

Are capitalists the real bad guys?

So here I am, trying to rule Tropico, thinking, "Yeah, let’s give my citizens free homes, food, and healthcare." Then... hold up! My popularity with the communist faction is skyrocketing. Wait a minute—they’re the bad guys, right?

Okay, I know what to do... I'll charge people for lunch and tax them for going to church. That'll make me a true capitalist!
...Hold on, that feels kind of harsh. Hmm, maybe if I give farmers agricultural subsidies to grow more food and make sure there's plenty for everyone to buy?
Nope. Too much supply means lower prices. That’s bad for capitalism.

Alright, tax the rich! They’ve got tons of money, and I can fund programs to help the people.
Wait, no, that's anti-capitalist too... more wealth redistribution? Ugh.

Okay, free cars for everyone!
...Oh, but that's too socialist, right? Maybe I should focus on public transportation instead...
WHAT?! The hippies are actually happy now?

And don’t get me started on Social Security. That’s basically communist, right?

So what can I do to prove I’m a true-red, white, blue and capitalist American and still win this game?!

Do I have to choose one between the axis and the allies? I am in the world war period, and it says I have to choose an alliance. I have built an embassy, but I don't really want to choose one. Can I not, without losing the game?

I don't care what other people say this game is the best in this genre. I've learned so much from it.

Has anybody had this issue for Tropico 6? My game suddenly looks like it was deep fried.

I have 75 hours in the game but it does this on startup now. I thought it might be because is resat my graphics card but no other games are affected and Tropico ran fine the day after doing so.

I bought spitter, loaded up my sandbox save aaaand I see no new items, where am I supposed to go get them?

I like to kill people for no reason and create a governement so unstable i watch as it burns.

Old time player here. Use to clock in the hours in 4 but haven’t played in years. Purchased 6 the other day for the Black Friday sale event on Xbox. So far it’s been good but unlike 4 is there not a stat building component to the game? I liked in 4 how your stats would improve after completing each mission.

I'm looking for unique map mods (new maps or maybe an easy to use map editor) that adds new maps to the game. Looking specifically for a relatively square map with resources not in the way of building a city (so no mines, rock structures or ancent ruins near to the palace) that has everything lined up nicely to the grid.

The bios and fun facts on all the different dictators is one of my favorite parts of the game. Are there any books that have bios for different dictators (particularly Latin American), where each chapter is a different dictator? Or are there any books about a dictator in general that remind you of the humor of the game?

This game was released in 2019 and has received DLCs up until late 2023. Despite this, there are insane design flaws that are trivial to fix yet they have persisted in the game for the past 5 years.

As an example, there is no benefit to having more than one worker in like half of the buildings in the game and some buildings have no benefit from increased efficiency. Efficiency and number of workers scaling to the performance of a building are an absolutely fundamental aspect of this game, and so these bugs completely fly in the face of the core game design. Imagine if when playing Skyrim you suddenly realised that all weapon damage above 30 made no difference when calculating damage against an enemy. That would be insane and patheticly bad game design right? This is just as bad.

I was hoping there'd be a mod that would fix this stuff but it I can't find any mods that fix issues like this. I feel like I have to go out of my way to gimp myself when playing this game just so that it can maintain some challenge (I have to avoid the "intimidate neighbours" raid and other sources of global citizen happiness to not trivialise the political and needs system. Also it seems like past a certain population every income oriented job except for office worker becomes pointless?).

This is making me want to give up on this game, which is really sad as I liked City Skylines and was looking forward to playing more of this game.

Why am I getting rebels with >90% approval rating? I didnt even get the warning about foreign powers supplying rebels, I know killing people causes their family members to rebel but I was playing in the cold war era (since I know the drone command can cause problems with that) and didnt kill anybody manually, I also have the courthouse with the due process upgrade and all buildings are covered by the 3 media buildings all set to paid mode, as well as the constitution being set to official separation and allowing all citizens to vote so its not a freedom problem, I have guns legalized is that why theyre rebelling? Or is it a faction thing?, Im in low standing with some of them is that why? (Game is on max difficulty btw)

Do you have suggestions about how to change the music during the game?

Without turning that at 0 in the settings with a music player running?

I was using smugglers for imports, and it absolutely killed my relations with all the super powers. Now each super power is slapping embargo’s on me. Issue is, they demand a task such as an import or export route to be completed, and each time I sign a contract it damages the relations of ALL the other superpowers. I’m in this non stop cycle on trying to complete embargo demands for the past 20 years in the game and I see no out of it. The diplomatic super party edict only helps with 20 points. But again, when I sign just one contract, it takes -2 from each power and starts the embargo acts all over again. Can’t praise them until 41points either…

I find it extremely ignorant that you lose relations with superpowers for signing any contract that’s not associated with them for this reason alone. Once they hit below 30 points, there’s no getting out of it at all.

So I’m now in the modern era, been selling rum since my island started and the price has dropped to -50%. I’ve manually turned off the selling of rum and have had all the produce getting moved into a warehouse since the Cold War, ( so literal years ingame have passed) and it’s still sitting at the same price. How can I make this have value again?

Edit: to clarify I’m aware of how to make money in a general sense. My issue is that I have the lama of Wall Street pack and after constantly selling the same thing, (so rum for example) the price of all export deals drops significantly and I can’t seem to raise the price of that particular good or produce again. Hope that makes sense sorry.

Only elections are turned off

Happened on a randomly generated sandbox map in Tropico 6. I don't suppose there is a way to undo this, is there?

Hey, I am playing Tropico 1. I don't know if you guys are still playing it, but I am really confused about why I could not get a certain college-educated worker to take a job as a priest, despite raising priest wages and firing him and closing openings from all other jobs. He finally had no opportunity to take any other job than be a priest, now the best paying job on the island, and he decided to leave to America. What am I doing wrong? Is it because he was college educated and not high school educated? I wish Tropico 1 better explained these mechanics.

What would you do on first thing in world wars and how you progress to cold wars and vice versa?

What is your approach?

I've recently re started playing the campaign mode, and just come into the cold war era (race to build a nuke) mission. And I've noticed that I have a -50 other mod on my plantations. Can anybody tell me what it is & how to remove it if possible please 🙏 Has I believe it's lowering my effectiveness down
