Uruguay with 2 billion...

[Ameise]

Wasn't sure where to post this, but I thought that it would be of interest...

I decided to cheat to see how much immigration I could get, say, Uruguay.

This is the result:

3 years later it was 8 billion, by 1890 it was at around 16... there weren't even that many people then...

what did you do to get that much immigration?

 

[henryjai]

perhaps, no tax, no tariffs, full social reforms, great party...


he cheat himself some money for that maybe...

 

[Gaius Marius I]

We know he gave Uruguay gold mines, those attract migrants. might well be the case that he edited liferatings to insanely high levels, to make the immigrants multiply even further after they arrive.

 

[germanpeon]

Yeah he definitely cheated. His income doesnt even come close to covering his expenses. I kind of want to try that though, just to see how many people I can get.

 

[L'Afrique]

He states that he cheated in the first sentence.

Two billion? Christ almighty!

In 1879 2.4 billion was more than the population of the world. :wacko:

Where did you get that graphical user interface?

how much pop splitting did that require?

 

[Garra-Ush]

Really awesome!!

 

[Ameise]

Yup, I pretty much did everything possible to increase immigration... no pop splitting. Never touched anything involving the pops. Just let them develop naturally... there were a lot of Platineans :| I felt good, beating China up...

One of the other things I did was create a global event that triggered regularly that set the militancy and consciousness of every nation except mine to +20. I've never seen so many nations formed out of revolts... the USA was broken up into 4 states...

Along with the gold mines, increasing the liferatings, made my own über party, full everything... Uruguay is utopia

Though I still find it hilarious that there could be so many people in Uruguay, yet China has somewhere like 400 million....

Already without cheating, natural POP-growth is the largest factor to population increase if you play Uruguay, so basically you're not testing how much immigration you can get, but if exponential growth works. Surprise, it works!

Then?! There aren't even that many people now! :wacko:
So... what did you do with your hordes?

Indeed. And to get huge population all that needs to be done is to set the life rating of provinces to insanely high numbers and the population growth will explode.

 

[Eärendil]

Yeah, for example you can read this short AAR about when Luxemburg somehow got 110% life rating in 1890. The effects are pretty much the same.

Where did you get that graphical user interface?

that is the VIP graphical interface developed by Tyler68, available as a separate download in the first post of this thread (see VIP:R 0.1 INTERFACE MOD For PC by Tyrel68 about 1/3 of the way into the first post).

Note it is a standalone mod, not the whole VIP mod, as some VIP users prefered the old Victoria interface. So it only includes graphic elements to change the look of the interface.

 

[mike^_^]

Excellent

I've always used VIP, I can't believe I missed that in the wall of links and bold text

what has that done to commodity prices?

what does grain cost?

 

[Ameise]

I'll get back to you on prices since I didn't think to look...

You mentioned Lëtzeburg...
