Random increasing of Resource consume

[Foefaller]

This only happens , when I win wars. This is kinda shit , because after I win these I just can give up my game.

I think I know what's going on.

Do you, by chance, have the Land Appropriation policy active?

You see it's changed in a very significant way in 2.2. Instead of simply making sure there is free space for your own pops on conquest, it always removes 5 of their pops...

...And moves five of your citizen pops to take their place.

Per Planet.

Unless you are enslaving the whole lot of them (moving them all to worker jobs), or have a significant number of unemployed pops, conquests of more than one planet will cause a *massive* downward shift on your basic resource income, as worker pops leave your planet to often take specialist or ruler jobs at your freshly conquered ones.

If you plan on conquering your neighbors, I recommend turning that off until you have full grasp of the new economy.

The increase in spending cannot be that steep, at least not from building just a mere city district.
Can't go from +100 food to -100 food from JUST one city district.


edit: seems you've found the reason, nvmd the previous post.

You're at zero with a negative balance for food, consumer goods, and I think at least one strategic resource. This is the economic equivalent of having your three biggest planets occupied by an enemy in war. Of course everything is exploding.

First, sell whatever you can to get some energy credits and get just enough of everything from the market so that you're no longer in the negative. Then all your production should go back up to something reasonable. Then you need to figure out the thing that's negative even without penalties and address it, first by buying a bit more of that thing, and second, by building whatever you need to address that need in the long term.

In 2.2, mismanaging your economy is just as punishing as mismanaging your fleets in a war. It can lose you the game if you let it get bad enough, just like losing a war badly enough.
