Moderate and reasonable trade issue request

[Ame]

Remove lucky nations from having free trade power when they have neither provinces nor colonial nations, protectorates or
even a merchant or light ships and if new world asia or africagets too much money just give them a trade oenalty instead.

 

[IIWW]

Why only luckies?

Why only luckies?

Only luckies get the free trade power I'm talking about to.

Untrue. As of 1.8 you get a lot of trade power downstream. Everyone. It is too much though.

Everyone gets TP from "trasnfering TP downstream". Perhaps I misuderstood You, what the exact name of this modifier?

Odd in the trade ledger only the lucky nations are listed in 1444; later I must have just assumed they sent a merchant for whatever reason.

I don't mind the lack of trade income; it just looks extremely strange having Sweden England France or even Russia dominate new world trade in 1444.

Nothing to do with lucky nations, just standard trade propagation. But it is mainly the lucky nations that are strong in the relevant nodes and so you only see lucky nation trade power being propagated.

 

[Ame]

It is regardless an aesthetic nightmare isn't it? Perhaps just a downstream malus would achieve the same thing?

The real fix is that trade power should not propagate to undiscovered nodes. Or have only 25% of their normal propagation value.

The real fix is that trade power should not propagate to nodes you have no base trade power in.

So I send one light ship and gain my 300 propagated power?
That doesn't fix it

Base trade power, as in having a CN, land, or a merchant already in the node.

Perhaps I wasn't specific enough.
