Realistic South Africa

When I load in a save using this mod the game crashes, however, if I load up any other country its fine. Can anyone help?

So for anyone wondering why I haven't updated the mod in awhile, it kinda broke on my PC while editing it. I can't find a fix so I'll have to redo the entire mod from scratch (with the new planned features of course). Sorry for the inconvenience.

It's five years, I can change it.

Another thing I wanted to ask is if you could perhaps just check if the term length is indeed 5 years? I think that the term in the game is four years at the moment which is wrong.

Very interesting! I think the taxi's would make the South African dynamic much more true to life. I look forward to trying it.

I was planning on introducing taxi's to the game to see how that shifts the dynamics of public transport and car ownership. I was also planning on making blackouts and issue if you don't implement load shedding, but this is difficult as it is nearly impossible to have no electricity in the base game.

Thanks! May I ask what you consider changing? After my first play through I saw a few things that I wondered about. Isn't community policing technically already in place in SA with neighbourhood watch initiatives? Another thing is that I think that gated communities are actually discouraged by the current government since they see it as increasing division. But it all depends on what you consider being encouraged or discouraged since there are definitely a lot of gated communities.

That is weird. I did set it to 60 million. Must have been an update that changed it, I'll fix it in the next update. Might add some more features too.

Hey thanks for this mod! I look forward to trying it. I just started it up. I'm not sure what influence it actually has on the game, but why is the population set to 123 million people? I think the latest census showed that we just crossed the 60 million mark.

@TackdriverTim I personally play by doing community policing early on to reduce crime. My main goal when starting is to inact policies that don't cause any popular groups to dislike me while also helping make the country better slowly. Its a popularity contest first, appeal to the masses and eventually you can fix the real issues.
