My Private Sector just stopped building in 1901 (1.2 beta)

[Ruck]

No Idea what happend, until now they did build about 90 factories all the time. At some point I was low on peasants, but after waiting some time for migration I got enough peasants back, waiting to work somewhere (30k in New York f.e.). LF laws of course. I was in some wars between 1895-1900 and I think something there bugged out. I did not took any land at all, everything I did was opening markets or freeing puppets here and there. Tried to reload multiple times, but the Private Sector just refuses to build anything.

One of the bugs that can cause this issue, there is no way of fixing this for the remainder of your save so I guess its time to seize the means of production

It's a known issue that paradox has recognized before they released the beta, so it's already on their to-fix list.

Is supposed to be fixed this week according to OneProudBavarian.
I hope patch comes this Wednesday/Thursday

Is there really no workaround for that ? Some trick to let them build again ? That was the most fun game I had with Victoria 3 and the first time I went over 1900.

Unfortunately no, but once we update the beta this week it should fix itself even in old saves, just might take a month or two in-game.

Is there any way to predict when this will happen (in order to avoid it)? It happened yesterday on my greece campaign when I ran out of pops (I think)?

I noticed in one Sweden game that it happened right as I got past 10 million gdp, where the small economy bonuses end, but that can't be the only way it happens. Another Sweden game where I had colonies it did not happen, so availability of pesants probably pay a role as well.

Non-exhaustive list:
1. Dont run low on peasants/unemployed
2. Avoid revolutions
3. Dont release countries
4. Dont go bankrupt

Don't let your (regular) queue run out, don't pause construction.

Basically don't let construction stop for any reason because once it stops it doesn't start.

Pfft.

(The best part is that 1900 is a valid numeric value for either dates or construction points. And I can see someone having 1900 construction points in the year 1900.)

Youll need to launch the game in debug mode, tag to another country and take the state with the bugged building, tag back and take it. It fixed it for me.

No peasantries? In my game in the current version peasants don't want to work when there is vacancies

Pfft.

Hah, true

The USA have just a crazy economy potential. Good that the private sector is helping now with building new factories.
