v.1.0.4

Windows

Yes

Have you tried verifying your game files?
No

How much "pain" is this causing you?
10

Please explain the issue you experienced in the most condensed way possible
I try my best to make sure the PB don't get powerful, I didn't change any gov. wages nor did I fiddle with PMs. At most I changed some trade routes around. Somehow their clout still shot through the roof.

Please explain how to reproduce the issue
I don't know, I genuinly think the PB has grown WAY too sensitive in this new patch...

Is there anything else you think could help us identify/replicate the issue?
I do have 2 events that just came up, that I've yet to acknowledge, as a result of "Revolution Brewing", but the PB doesn't care about the new law, so it makes no sense.

I have attached a save game
Yes

I didn't look at the saves but if you had jobs in your economy that were unfilled and the trade made those jobs fillable and they paid more than the jobs pop's currently have they may have moved to those jobs. Then once they have their new job the percentage of them supporting a particular faction can fluctuate so one faction might lose clout and another gains clout.

I think the reason is just that I cancelled some trade routes and made new ones, I just didn't think the PB would be THIS upset about me changing some trade around. It's annoying as hell, and the only solution is to switch out of Mercantilism...

the pb explodes cause of trade centers
cause shopkeepers are 63% pb
